Free Web NovelIn a secluded, abandoned underground pipeline not far from the clothing store.
The black-cloaked figure who had previously bumped into Zhao Chen's female bodyguard on the street was cautiously making his way through the underground pipeline. After walking for an unknown length of time, he turned into a smaller pipe and rhythmically tapped his hand on the wall several times.
Soon, dozens of figures emerged from the darkness ahead.
They were all uniformly female, with short horns on their heads, short wings on their backs, and even slender tails on their hips.
"Sister Lilith," the girls gathered around the black-cloaked figure.
The black-cloaked figure lowered her hood, revealing a charming and graceful face. Although it was smeared with some black, muddy-looking dirt, it couldn't conceal her allure.
Like these girls, she also had black horns on her head.
"You must be hungry. Here's some food I found. Eat first," Lilith said, taking out a box filled with green, sticky food from her embrace.
It was synthetic food.
Though it didn't taste good, the girls didn't hesitate and immediately grabbed handfuls to eat, clearly having been hungry for a long time.
Watching the children eat, Lilith couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
It was just a pity that today she had targeted ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ a wealthy mark but had no chance to act. She hadn't expected that person's bodyguard to be so alert, leaving no opportunity at all.
"Sister Lilith, have some too," a little girl who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old said, holding a bit of the green synthetic food and looking at Lilith.
Lilith smiled gently and said, "Sister has already eaten outside. I'm not hungry. You eat."
The little girl blinked and began devouring the food ravenously.
Lilith turned around and rubbed her flat stomach.
In truth, she hadn't eaten anything at all. Because the food she managed to steal today wasn't much, it could only meet the needs of the group. If she ate too, there wouldn't be enough for everyone.
Missing one meal was fine for her, but she couldn't bear to see her clansmen suffer from hunger.
Watching the basin of green, sticky synthetic food being finished off in such a short time, even the bottom of the container was licked clean.
She sighed. It seemed she had to go out 'hunting' again today.
*Tap, tap, tap, tap*
Just then, very faint footsteps could be heard.
But Lilith still heard them. She immediately looked in the direction she had come from and shouted sharply, "Who's there!"
"I knew I wasn't mistaken earlier. This girl is a succubus!"
"You're the smart one, big brother. Thinking this succubus wasn't alone, following the trail might lead us to others. Who would have thought there'd be so many!"
"I hear a good-quality succubus is worth over a thousand star coins on the market these days. The one in front of us might even be worth tens of thousands!"
Seven men emerged from the darkness, holding blades and similar weapons.
According to Starport regulations, no firearms are allowed inside the internal living and trading areas, so they were only carrying melee weapons.
The seven men leered at the succubus before them and the succubi behind her, who were now huddled together in fear.
Succubi.
One of the very rare stellar races, with no males, only females, capable of asexual reproduction.
Every succubus is an extremely alluring creature. They originally lived on a planet undisturbed, but after being discovered, their seductive forms...
...quickly attracted hunting by humanoid beings.
The planet inhabited by the succubi soon erupted into an invasion war. The succubus race itself wasn't strong, and eventually, the planet fell. Most succubi died in battle or were captured, while the remaining succubi boarded Starships and fled their homeworld, beginning a long life of wandering.
During their wanderings, the succubi gradually scattered.
On the black market, a single succubus is priced at over a thousand star coins, with exceptionally beautiful ones even reaching tens of thousands of star coins.
Many nobles and aristocrats take pride in owning a succubus slave.
But due to extensive hunting, succubi are now rarely seen.
Who would have thought that dozens of succubi were living in the abandoned pipelines of this Starport!
This was a moving treasure trove.
"Run, now!" Lilith shouted sharply. At the same time, she drew a dagger and assumed a fighting stance.
The succubi behind her began to flee.
"Trying to escape? No way!" The men swarmed forward.
Lilith brandished the dagger in her hand, but it was clear her combat skills weren't formidable.
Soon, the dagger was wrested from her grasp by one of the men.
"little girl, I suggest you don't resist. Instead of barely surviving here, why not let me sell you to those nobles? Then you can live in luxury. Why suffer here?" The man sneered as he grabbed Lilith's arm.
"Who would want to be your prisoner! I'd rather die than let you succeed!" Lilith opened her mouth and bit down hard on the man's arm.
The man cried out in pain and kicked Lilith in the abdomen.
Lilith was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground, clutching her stomach in pain.
"Let me go!"
"Sister Lilith, save me!"
From behind came the cries and screams of her fleeing companions.
Gritting her teeth, Lilith raised her head. At the other end of the pipeline, there were actually four or five more people blocking the way, already beginning to capture her companions.
It seemed they were all part of the same group.
"Hey, why'd you hit her so hard? If you damage her, she won't fetch a good price!" another man yelled.
The man who had been bitten snorted coldly, walking toward Lilith and saying, "If we can't sell her, we'll enjoy her ourselves.
I've lived this long and never played with a succubus before.
I hear that even if it costs you ten years of your life, it's worth it to have a succubus once."
As he spoke, the man reached Lilith. He placed one foot directly on her back, grabbed her hair, and sneered, "Tonight, I'm going to savor the taste of the famous succubus of the universe."
With her hair pulled, Lilith's head was forced up. The pain in her body was nothing compared to the agony in her heart.
She knew all too well what fate awaited her and her companions if they were captured.
They had fled for so many years, barely surviving.
Why!
Why didn't her succubus race have the right to live equally?
Was it just because they were beautiful?
Lilith hated, hated this damned universe, hated those who invaded her homeworld.
Hated the people before her. fгeewebnovёl.com
If... if anyone could save them, she, Lilith, was willing to give everything, even her life.
"Ah!"
"Ah..."
Suddenly, screams echoed through the pipeline.
At first, they thought it was the fleeing succubi.
But soon, they realized something was wrong. A figure walked out from the darkness.
"It's quite lively here. Mind if I join in?"
