Savage Tribe Survival

Heishan took Luo Zhen and Lu Zhan to an open space where prey was being distributed outside. There were many people here, and the smell of blood was strong. In the middle of the open space, there were piles of dead beasts as high as hills. The beasts were strangely shaped. Zhen couldn't even recognize what kind of beast it was.

Several burly men were dividing the meat with stone knives. The stone knives were not sharp, and some bones, fur, and the like could not be cut with stone knives alone. One of them turned into a two-meter-tall black panther on the spot, stretching out his claws. , opened his mouth, forcibly tore the beast apart, and then asked his companions to distribute it to the clansmen waiting aside.

A few bare-bottomed hairy kids happily ran on the blood-stained ground, accidentally fell down and got covered in bloody mud, wiped it casually on the grass next to it, and then continued to play.There was also a woman holding a child sitting beside her, not caring about other people's eyes, and was feeding the baby in her arms. The baby was wrapped in animal skins, and her body was black and thin. look.

Seeing the leader bringing a stranger over, everyone in the open space slowed down their movements, especially the single soldiers who were squatting and resting by the side, all stood up, intentionally or unintentionally showing their whole body. Muscles, looking at Luo Zhen with extremely hot eyes, everyone knows that the arrival of foreigners proves that one of them can become the partner of the other.

"Boss." The man who turned into a black panther to help tear apart his prey re-formed into a human form, walked up to Heishan and saluted, but looked curiously at Luo Zhen who was two steps behind Heishan.

Heishan nodded to him, but he didn't mean to introduce him, but turned to Luo Zhen and said: "Here are all the best fighters in our tribe, you can choose one of them to be your partner, he Will protect you, be loyal to you, and form a contract with you as a companion."

After hearing the words from Montenegro, those single fighters who were interested in Luo Zhen all took a step forward, some of them excitedly turned into beasts directly, others saw the man scolding him for being cunning, and quickly started to turn into beasts, all black giant leopards were like this Appearing in front of Luo Zhen, the giant leopards raised their heads to the sky and roared, wanting to let their future partners see their powerful side.

But for Luo Zhen, a modern person who has never been to the zoo a few times, this feeling of being surrounded by wild animals only made him subconsciously want to escape, probably because the primitive people did not have the habit of cleaning, and the black panthers opened their eyes. After roaring loudly, Luo Zhen took a few steps back due to the bad breath, and bumped into Lu Zhan, who was following the crowd with a lot of fruit in his arms.

Luo Zhen sneered a few times, the expression on his face was as reluctant as he wanted, he looked at Montenegro, "Do I have to choose a partner now?"

"Of course, the soldiers are very satisfied with you. No matter who you choose, you will immediately become a member of our tribe." Heishan lowered his head slightly, Luo Zhen was shorter than him, only in this way could he look straight into the other's eyes, "Could it be Are you unwilling to join our Black Panther tribe?"

Luo Zhen shook her head quickly, "I just feel that I just came to your tribe, so I don't need to be so anxious."

"We don't give foreigners a tent to live in. Your partner will take you back to your common home."

"Only warriors in our tribe can build houses." Lu Zhan behind him explained in a low voice, "After all, animal skins only belong to warriors who hunt prey."

A black panther standing next to Heishan seemed to see Luo Zhen's reluctance, lowered his head, and gently rubbed Luo Zhen's calf.

Luo Zhen avoided the black panther's overtures uncomfortably. He looked around at the more than 20 tall black panthers that surrounded him. Apart from the fact that these people were all men, their identities as beasts alone made them difficult for him. With a huge difference in force from the opponent, Luo Zhen didn't want to challenge what it was like to be with the beast at all.

"Are you a warrior too?" Luo Zhen asked Lu Zhan behind him. After spending so many days with each other, if he had to choose anyone in this tribe, at least he wanted to choose someone he was familiar with.

Lu Zhan didn't expect that Luo Zhen would ask himself, and the leader of Heishan had already answered on his behalf, "Of course, Ah Zhan is also a single warrior of our tribe. If you choose him, you can also become a member of our tribe."

Luo Zhen was overjoyed, but Lu Zhan restrained his expression, "I'm not a warrior, I'm just a half-orc. I can't transform into a beast, but I can't afford a partner."

"Half-orc?"

"Half-orcs are also warriors of our tribe. Luo Zhen was brought back to the tribe by you, so you naturally have the opportunity to choose." Heishan did not explain the meaning of half-orcs to Luo Zhen, and gave Lu Zhan a displeased look, and said forcefully.

The other black panthers who were still expressing themselves all took a few steps back when they heard the words, and stopped rushing towards Luo Zhen. Some black panthers even turned into human figures and stood aside. The children sat on the ground, tilted their heads and looked curiously at one and the other. Although they didn't quite understand what was going on now, every time the leader brought a stranger in front of everyone, it indicated that the stranger was about to Be one of them.

Lu Zhan was obviously not very willing. He was not too old in the tribe, but it was time to find a partner. Some soldiers of his age had already been the fathers of several children.

"Half-orcs are people who can't be turned into beasts." Lu Zhan didn't want to deceive Luo Zhen. He stretched out his hand, and his left hand was quickly covered with hair visible to the naked eye. After a while, it turned into a huge animal claw, which only extended to the elbow. There is no change, and there is a pair of huge furry animal ears on the top of Lu Zhan's head. Unlike other people in the Black Leopard tribe, Lu Zhan's hair is white, and there is only a small tuft at the tip of the ear. black hair.

"You have also seen that this is the limit of my ability to become a beast. I can't go out to hunt. I can't even feed myself. If you follow me, you can only starve." A strong warrior who can fully beastize should be chosen.

Luo Zhen obviously didn't care whether Lu Zhan could turn into a beast or not. To him, Lu Zhan who couldn't turn into a beast made him feel more familiar than those orcs who could turn into giant black panthers in the blink of an eye, and wouldn't hunting?If this man didn't change his expression and lied, if he hadn't seen him carrying a wild beast back every day, and running so far behind his back, maybe he would have believed it.

Seeing Lu Zhan's resistance, Luo Zhen was even more satisfied. After all, he didn't want to make a hasty decision about his life in another world. He just wanted to have a relatively safe place for him to settle down temporarily, and he would understand later. After leaving this world, he didn't even know if he would leave the Black Panther tribe.

"It's okay, I don't dislike you, and I won't turn into a beast either. I think it's just right for the two of us to be together." Luo Zhen held the other's half-beastly hand and winked at him, wanting the other side to go ahead. agree to come down.

Lu Zhan's eyelids twitched, his eyes were full of disgust, of course he concealed it well, no one saw it except Luo Zhen.Lu Zhan withdrew the hand held by Luo Zhen, and shook it lightly, and the animal claw quickly returned to the shape of a human hand.

Lu Zhan coughed twice, and gathered the animal fur coat on his body. It was obviously a hot day, and others didn't seem to be surprised to see Lu Zhan dressed so tightly, "I'm not in good health, and I can't even get my share of food. It needs to be exchanged with the tribe, and according to the tribe's regulations, if I can't win the fruit of the mother tree for you within three years, you will still be kicked out of the tribe." Lu Zhan seemed very depressed, and his voice was a little lower after speaking .

Heishan on the other side frowned after hearing this, but he didn't interrupt the two of them. This rule has been handed down since the establishment of the Black Panther tribe. Even if he is the leader, there is no way to change it. However, they There are not many people in the tribe, and the mother-child fruit is ripe once a year. Although it still needs to be contested, it is not too scarce. In the eyes of Montenegro, Lu Zhan's worry is more like lack of self-confidence. After all, his father is a foreigner. tribe, and his father all abandoned him and left the tribe when he was young.

A young man named Ah Lie walked up to Lu Zhan, patted Lu Zhan on the shoulder comfortingly, and showed his big white teeth with a smile, "Don't worry, there are a bunch of single orcs in our tribe, only black ones are left now." Yu still needs the fruit of mother and child, maybe within three years those of us can't find a partner, then you can get the fruit of mother and child without accepting the challenge."

"You can't find a partner." One of the orcs who was also single picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at Ah Lie, and cursed with a smile, "Lu Zhan, don't worry, if you find a man to be your partner, next time If your son and mother let Ah Lie go up to accept the challenge instead of you."

"Yes." Black Mountain nodded.

With the leader's affirmation, a group of single orcs started booing, and those black panthers who had maintained their animal shapes also returned to human bodies one after another, obviously acquiescing that Luo Zhen chose Lu Zhan.

Seeing this, Lu Zhan could only swallow his refusal, but said to Luo Zhen unwillingly, "I am very poor, the poorest person in the tribe, the kind who can't eat meat for ten days and a half months. "After all, he has grown up a long time ago, and he can only hunt for his own rations. If he can't join the hunting team to go hunting, he can only pick some fruits nearby and exchange meat with the people in the tribe.

However, Luo Zhen didn't understand the poverty that Lu Zhan said at all. In his eyes, the whole tribe of the Black Leopard tribe was quite poor, and he actually saw several edible wild vegetables on the way back, so even if it was Having to find food on his own, he wasn't too worried about starving.

For him, the most important thing is to let him stay for the time being.

"It's okay, at worst, I'll find food to feed you."
