    Thus, Renee and Leia parted ways.


    After more than ten minutes, Lucas was tired too. He said helplessly, "Hey, I think you should stop now. Do you want to keep torturing me until nightfall?"


    "I think so too, but can you let us go?" Renee asked.


    Her arm was so sore, it was about to break. Luckily, she had practiced martial arts for many years. If not, any three-year-old child could defeat her easily, let alone control Lucas.


    ''Whether I let you go or not isn''t important. Once you enter this area, you''ll either suffer by my or someone else''s hand. I''m already considered good. Usually, women like you would be sent to a red-light district and forced to entertain all sorts of men. You''d get a taste of hell!*


    Lucas nced at the gradually darkened sky expressionlessly. He never felt that he had done anything wrong. On the contrary, he saw himself as a very kind person.


    ''Plus, it''s getting dark. My factory isn''t the only one around here. There are many factories more outrageous than mine. I guess your friend is in danger now, given her hot temper." Lucas'' words filled Renee with worry.


    ''Shut up!" she screamed fiercely at him. She felt that she couldn''t wait there. "I was unlucky to run into you, but you''re also unlucky to run into me. I''ll let you go today ande back for you in a few days!"


    Then, Renee exhausted her force to punch the back of Lucas'' neck. His eyes rolled up, and he fainted.


    Renee quickly searched his body and found a gun, a pass card, and a phone. She took them all, then tied the unconscious Lucas around a tree just to be safe.


    It was getting dark, so Renee couldn''t see the road ahead well. She used some means to crack the password of Lucas'' phone. Then, she turned on the map app and walked out using it.


    The map showed that her current spot was not far from Liam''s fort, just around six miles. It was a twenty-minute car ride, but she would need a few hours to walk there.


    Although it was far, she had to walk. The problem was, she didn''t know where Leia had gone. She could only pray that Leia had sessfully escaped.


    After running frantically for a while, she was about to leave the factory area. Suddenly, she stepped on something. A sharp w-like thing mped her left foot.


    "Ah!" Renee felt a sharp pain. She looked down and found her ankle bleeding-she was trapped by a beast trap. "Hey, I got a lot today! This prey is mine!"


    Suddenly, a group of people ran out of the darker of a bush and surrounded Renee.


    "Who...are you?'' Renee asked them as she touched her aching foot, sweating profusely.


    They were dressed like the typical local people, with special feathers on their heads. They might belong to a primitive tribe.Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    In a remote country like this, there were many secluded tribes within secluded viges. The people there neither went to school nor worked. They were also not under the jurisdiction of the local government. They fended for themselves and kept the same lifestyles and social habits as hundreds of years ago.


    The fort where Liam was could be considered a tribe too, but Benjamin established that tribeter on, so it was more advanced. Besides, it came with its military power. It was different from the tribe that was passed down for hundreds of years.


    "Hey, my prey is plump! I''m the champion today! We''ll have a great feast!"


    The man in the lead was wearing a vest made of animal skin, a grass skirt, and a pair of grass-woven slippers. He


    danced excitedly in front of Renee, while the others cheered him on.
