Chapter 356 People from Afar
Lin Baiyan and Lang Cang exchanged a glance. Lang Cang frowned and said, "Come in and talk."
After the male orc warrior entered, he lowered his head and said, "The message was brought back by the warriors on patrol this morning."
The story begins at dawn when Xiong Zhan and Niu Lie lead the beastmen on patrol. Every morning, the warriors on patrol would take a bird from the breeding area, and the bird would patrol the air to detect anything unusual.
This morning, I went on patrol with Fat Pigeon. Although Fat Pigeon is chubby, it doesn't hinder its flight at all. It flaps its little wings and flies happily.
The fragrant orc told him that there would be a bonus if he did a good job!
Fatty didn't know what the reward was, but every time he came back from completing a mission, Fragrant Beastman would pet and hug him and cook him delicious food!
Pigeon will work for the Fragrant Beastman for the rest of her life!
As Fatty was spinning in the sky, Little Black Bean's eyes sharpened; there seemed to be some movement on the plains over there.
Fatty charged up and flew straight away. Xiong Zhan, who was behind him, saw the patrolling pigeon fly away without saying a word. He quickly turned around and looked at Niu Lie, "Why did that bird fly away?"
He had heard that this was a bird that the high priest had gone to great lengths to tame, specifically for delivering messages!
"Quickly bring him back!" Xiong Chong said anxiously after seeing him.
This was the first time their Giant Bear tribe had participated in a morning patrol. If they lost the bird, how could they face the High Priest when they returned?
Niu Lie waved his hand dismissively and said with a smile, "Fatty must have seen something, either a wild beast or some small tribe of beastmen from the surrounding area."
Their City of Ten Thousand Beasts is located on a plain, with a vast territory. However, there are also some secluded small tribes outside the territory, guarding their own little plot of land. They do not interfere with each other.
"It's alright, it will fly back in a little while."
Niu Lie explained, "The first time we let him go on patrol with us, he was like this. The soldiers all thought Fatty was going to run away, and they searched for a long time but couldn't find him."
"When we got back to the tribe, we found that Fatty had already flown back to the tribe and landed back in the breeding farm."
According to the high priest, it was rushing back for lunch…
Niu Lie couldn't help but laugh and cry when he thought of this reason; they really hadn't expected the fat pigeon to be so intelligent.
However, Fatty didn't get anything good out of all his tricks; the High Priest cut off his snacks for two days.
This calmed Fatty down a bit, and he obediently followed them on their hunting trips and returned with the group each time.
After listening to Niu Lie's explanation, Xiong Zhan felt somewhat relieved, and the group slowly continued to advance along the trajectory of the territory's edge.
Not long after, Fatty dove back and landed on Niu Lie's shoulder.
"Coo coo coo!" Fatty called out quickly towards Niu Lie's little mouth.
Niu Lie tilted his head to look at him, and teased him with a smile, "Don't you know how heavy you are? Be careful not to crush me."
Fatty was furious!
He's not the same fat pigeon who couldn't understand animal language anymore!
Fatty gave Niu Lie a big peck on the shoulder, then looked around with its little head before landing on the shoulder of another tall male orc. "Coo coo coo, coo coo!"
There, there someone is coming this way!
Xiong Zhan watched as the chubby guy cooed loudly, his little wings flapping so fast they were almost blurry.
He asked hesitantly, "Is there anything unusual over there?"
Fatty nodded quickly when he saw that someone could understand him!
Niu Lie, who was rubbing his shoulder, which was pecked red, suddenly turned serious after seeing Pang Pang's reaction. "Who is it?"
"Could it be one of those small tribes you mentioned?" Xiong Chong guessed.
Niu Lie and Xiong Zhan shook their heads together. If it really was a small tribe nearby, Fatty wouldn't have reacted this way at all.
The two male orcs exchanged a glance, and Xiong Zhan spoke first: "Let me go with Fatty to take a look."
"I'll call a few people to come with you."
Xiong Zhan shook his head. "If there are too many people, it will be too noisy and the other side will easily notice. I can handle it myself."
He was born in seclusion. Despite his large size, he was the one who created the Giant Bear Tribe's ability to gather information and remain hidden.
Niu Lie thought about it and realized that what he said made sense; they knew Xiong Zhan's abilities.
He nodded. "Then be careful."
Xiong Zhan nodded, transformed into his beast form, and flew westward with Fatty.
Fatty and Bear Zhan stopped in a forest.
Xiong Zhan transformed into human form and cautiously traversed the forest, hearing a sound not far away.
"Are you sure this is here?"
“I don’t know either. I only had a general location at the time,” said a slender orc.
The tall orc beside him frowned when he heard his voice, took out water from his bamboo tube and handed it to him, "Nan, drink some water."
These two orcs were none other than the Leopard Couple whom Lin Baiyan had met at the trading market.
Bao Nan took the bamboo tube, sipped some water, and handed it to Xiang Qi with a smile, saying, "You drink too."
When Xiang Qi receives care from his partner, he's like a puppy receiving praise; despite his large size, he looks rather petite and delicate.
"But after asking around, this should be the place." Bao Nan turned to look at them.
"Boss, do you really think it's the young clan leader?" The eight-foot-tall, burly man scratched his head and looked at the orc beside him.
Wolf Mo paused for a moment, then said, "Whether it is or not, we still have to come and take a look."
When Leopard saw them, he said that someone was looking for the beastmen of the Star Wolf Tribe. Wolf Mo thought it was the group of Burning Pig Beastmen who wanted to exterminate them, but he didn't expect to hear news about the young chieftain from him.
Xiong Zhan hid behind the bushes and overheard their conversation.
He quietly tried to leave, but unexpectedly, the chubby guy next to him stepped on a fallen leaf and made a sound.
Wolf Mo, who was not far away, sharpened his eyes. "Who's there? Come out now!"
Xiong Zhan glared at the fat pigeon, annoyed. "So it's eating too much, can't it fly now? Why is it mimicking my movements and backing away!"
Fatty seemed to know he had messed things up, and blinked his black bean eyes at Xiong Zhan innocently.
Wolf Mo winked at Wolf Wang beside him, and Leopard Nan also signaled to Xiang Qi to be on guard. They had encountered too many dangers along the way, and if they were not careful, they probably wouldn't have been able to make it to the north.
Xiong Zhan kept thinking about what they had just said. This group of people seemed to be friends but not enemies.
Take a gamble, stay away from them, and if that doesn't work, you can still run away.
Having made up his mind, Xiong Zhan strode out and said, "I am the captain of the second patrol team of Ten Thousand Beasts City. Who are you people?"
Wolf Mo and his companions exchanged bewildered glances. The City of Ten Thousand Beasts? Wasn't that the place they were looking for?
A glint of joy flashed in Lang Wang's eyes, and he suddenly looked at Lang Mo.
Wolf Mo stared intently at Xiong Zhan in front of him, as if trying to determine whether what he was saying was true.
Xiong Zhan knew that his spying behavior was untrustworthy in their eyes, but he caught a glimpse of the joy in Lang Wang's eyes out of the corner of his eye.
Xiong Zhan thought for a moment and then said directly, "Is the person you're looking for our city lord, Lang Cang?"
