Chapter 119 Hidden dangers
On this return trip, Mai Kuo also brought back four orcs of the same tribe. It seemed that these orcs had escorted him all the way.
Several people were in a hurry and were covered in dust.
"Sister Tangtang, has nothing happened in the tribe during the few days I've been away?"
Mai Kuo looked so anxious that he ignored the super-tall tower and giant high-voltage power grid when he entered the door.
When he turned around and looked again, he was shocked.
“When was this built?”
Shatang looked proudly at his tribe's masterpiece and replied, "It has just been built. It's a long story to tell about the past few days. Let's go home and talk about it?"
Mai Kuo also understood, and turned around to arrange for the few orcs who came with him to go to the tribe to rest.
He ran to Shatang's house, holding an apple in one hand and a tomato in the other, and started eating them in an untidy manner.
Shatang was a little disgusted, "Brother Mai Kuo, you are unhygienic."
"Didn't I bring you some fruit and food when I left? You won't be starving for a few days, right?"
Mai Kuo has a huge space pocket. When he left the tribe, Sha Tang asked him to put a lot of things in it.
Except for the fine salt, fruits and vegetables brought for Aunt Qingyun, the rest of the things he brought were for Mai Kuo to eat on the way.
With the things that Shatang asked him to bring, he would not have to worry about food and drink for two trips back and forth.
But looking at Mai Kuo's appearance, it seems as if he hasn't eaten a single bite in the past few days.
At this time, Mai Kuo had already eaten two apples, a tomato, and drank a bowl of warm water, and then he wiped his mouth without any image.
"Sister Tangtang, I didn't waste the things you gave me. I left them all to the female mother and the big father."
"But you have to be mentally prepared for the news I'm about to tell you. Something happened in the City of Beasts!"
Shatang saw Mai Kuo's expression and knew that it was a big deal. "Don't be anxious. Talk slowly."
"It's the snake tribe. Fortunately, sister Tangtang, you found it early and allowed me to rush over to warn my grandfather and the others. Otherwise, the orcs in Wanshou City would have suffered heavy casualties this winter."
Mai Kuo clenched his fists and pounded them weakly on the table.
"On the day I rushed back to deliver the message, my father teamed up with several tribal leaders to visit the Snake Tribe."
"As we expected, the snakes are just using the excuse of hibernation to stay in the tribe and not participate in the activities of the City of Beasts. In fact, they are quietly devouring energy in the tribe."
When Mai Kuo said this, his expression became a little out of control.
Shatang's expression was relatively calm. He patted his back and listened to him patiently.
"They are not devouring beast crystals like ordinary orcs. They are eating other orcs."
Shatang could imagine the scene that Mai Kuo described.
Shatang had visited the Snake Tribe several times when he was in Wanshou City, and each time he went there it was always shady.
Every household in the tribe was like returning home, with thick animal skin curtains drawn at the doors and windows of the caves.
At that time, Shatang thought that this was the survival habit of the snake clan. They were afraid of the cold and liked darkness, so there was nothing wrong with it.
But no one could have imagined that these snakes would use this method to cover up their evil deeds of devouring other orcs.
Mai Kuo's eyes turned red. "The orcs they ate were all orcs that Wanshou City usually sent out to hunt. Some acted alone, or in teams. They were captured by them and never came back. Our fellow tribesmen in the tribe thought they died in the mouths of ferocious beasts, but they didn't expect that they were dragged back to Wanshou City to be eaten."
This is cruel and unacceptable news for the orcs of Wanshou City, who have always pursued peace.
Sha Tang was not that shocked. The world outside had always been like this. The orcs in Wanshou City were too good at protecting themselves.
So they thought that all orcs were kind by nature.
"Where are those snake orcs?"
The orcs in the City of Beasts have discovered their evil deeds and will definitely not keep them anymore.
The message that Shatang asked Mai Kuo to take back was that once it was confirmed that the snake tribe was a man-eating beast, they must be destroyed, otherwise it would bring disaster to the entire continent.
Of course, not everyone will listen to her.
Mai Kuo replied hastily, "After hearing that, no matter how soft-hearted the father and his men were, they would not show any kindness to these man-eating beasts. On that day, the beastmen in the City of Beasts spontaneously united and besieged the snake tribe."
"Unfortunately, I don't know what supernatural power they used, but most of them escaped. The tribesmen only caught some snakes that had just devoured orcs and whose bodies were still unstable. The rest were all escaped by them."
Mai Kuo lowered his head and said, "Now, everyone has cleaned up the snake tribe's caves and burned down the place where they lived."
"Although there are no snake tribes in Wanshou City, I don't know where these evildoers have fled to. Tangtang, the female mother asked me to come back this time because she wanted me to pass on a message to you."
Mai Kuo hurriedly grabbed Sha Tang's arm.
But under the strong threat of Feng Chen and Yin Cang's gazes, he let go awkwardly.
"The mother told you to take everyone to hide for the time being. If you don't want to go back to the City of Beasts, then go to the Central Continent or the Sea of Beasts. In short, you can't stay here."
Rao Hui is dead and the snake tribe is being hunted. They will soon react and seek revenge on Sha Tang.
Qingyun’s worries are not wrong. The wisest choice for Shatang now is to find a big tribe to rely on.
Mai Kuo finished speaking in one breath, his eyes fixed on Sha Tang, waiting for her answer.
His sister has always been independent-minded. When Mai Kuo heard the message that the female mother wanted to convey, he probably guessed that Sha Tang might not listen.
Seeing that she was silent, Mai Kuo could only focus his attention on Yin Cang.
He is Shatang's bestial husband, so his words should carry some weight.
Yin Cang didn't even look at Mai Kuo. He just looked at Sha Tang's emotions with a worried look on his face.
"Tangtang, don't be afraid. I will always stand by you."
Feng Chen added, "Me too."
Rong Di and Ye Tianlan followed closely behind, "And me."
Hoshino is not here at the moment, otherwise there would be one more person to join in the fun.
Shatang pondered for a long time before replying, "I can't leave."
"Sister Tangtang, you can't joke around at this time. The snake tribe is cruel and ruthless. They will even kill ordinary orcs, let alone let you go."
Shatang stood up, and said calmly, "They won't let me go, and I won't let them go either."
"I just wonder if the energy of the animal crystals extracted from the dissected man-eating beasts like the snake tribe, which have intelligence, will be even more powerful."
Now that Shatang has a system to help purify the energy liquid, he has become more interested in the beast crystals.
The beast crystal that was stripped from Rao Hui last time has not been converted by the system yet, otherwise Sha Tang would have taken it out and tried it a long time ago.
Since everyone is afraid of man-eating beasts, she doesn't mind being a savior and getting rid of the beasts.
Mai Kuo's mouth twitched, and he didn't know how to persuade him.
He knew that he was not good at talking, and when faced with Sister Tangtang's abnormal thinking, he had no room to interrupt.
"Sister Tangtang, it's okay if you don't move away. I won't go back either. I have to stay here with you."
Shatang did not object at this time, "Brother Maikuo, it's good for you to stay. The tribe needs your help in many tasks of construction."
"By the way, do any of the orcs you brought with you have spatial talents? When they go back to tell my aunt, let them bring some more things back!"
Mai Kuo was reluctant to eat them, he must have wanted to leave all the fresh fruits and vegetables for his family.
Shatang has enough here, and would like to send some to them, but she is unable to spare the time.
Mai Kuo nodded. "They don't have spatial abilities, but there is an orc who has a big pocket like me that can hold things."
They have many such space pockets in Wanshou City, which are designed to make it convenient for orcs to carry things when they go out.
Sha Tang understood and left these matters to Feng Chen to arrange.
As for the hidden danger of the snake clan, although Shatang said that he didn't care, he couldn't really take it lightly.
"Let's go and play with Luo Tian."
