Light of life

Building - in the hatchery.

He was silent for a while before he spoke: "There are less than 300 people in our clan. There are only five females left, four adult females, and one female cub. We... can no longer survive alone. Looking at the clansmen The sad and hopeless eyes make my heart ache!" Old Yuean patted his chest heavily, making a dull rumbling sound.He plucked up the courage to look directly into An Erji's eyes: "I just want to ask you in private, is it possible for our tree spirit clan to become a vassal clan of the Golden Light Roar clan?"

Ever since An Erji came in, he had been staring at the female eggs that had been swallowed up, leaving only a pile of shells in a daze, as if he hadn't heard what Old Yoan said.

Old Yuean waited for a while, but there was no response from Anji, and he hurriedly explained: "This is not a request, I just asked. I know that our tree spirits are too weak and have no special skills. So I dare not embrace it." There are too many hopes. I asked privately, because I was afraid that the clansmen would have such thoughts and know that there is no possibility, and they would be even more desperate!"

After a while, An Erji finally moved his eyes away from the female's eggshell, and focused on the old Yoan: "I want to become a vassal of my clan..." He paused before continuing: " Have you ever thought about how the clansmen will live in the future? The Twilight Forest where the Golden Roar Clan is located is not a low-level monster area. Your 300 people are not enough to attack even the most common monster in the Twilight Forest. How do you all alone? Crossing the wilderness plain and then the twilight forest to reach the Golden Light Roar clan? Even if our clan sends someone to pick you up, we will protect you all the way. When you arrive, will you stay in the clan land forever?"

Old Ioann was silent.

After a while, he finally said: "We only have so many clansmen. No matter which powerful clan we turn to, we will not have real freedom. Only the orcs of the Jinguanghou clan are the most likely to not interfere with the clans of the vassal clan. If we can become vassals of the Jinguanghou tribe, even if we cannot freely enter and leave the forest outside the tribe because of our own weakness, our hearts are free. We will not be enslaved, and we will not be forced to do things that are not work to be done."

An Erji still had a cold face: "Even so, it is still not enough to be a reason for you to join our Golden Light Roar Clan. Your clan is of no help to our Golden Light Roar Clan. If you accept you, it will be the end of the Golden Light Roar Clan. The neutral attitude of accepting vassals. Then, the next trouble, this cannot be solved with a little sympathy."

Old Yoan thought for a while and said: "Our family knows some secret methods of domesticating wild animals. It can domesticate some herbivores in the wild to be very obedient. They can help with some work at ordinary times, and some slightly stronger ones can also help in fighting. If we are in the Golden Roar Clan, with the help of powerful orcs from the Roar Clan, we are even confident that we can tame some monsters. We can become a vassal of the Golden Roar Clan who specializes in taming monsters."

An Erji remained silent, not showing any sign of being moved.For the extremely fast and powerful Howler orcs, bringing a monster to fight can only become a burden.

Old Ioann grew anxious.He kept walking back and forth in the room, his long green tail kept scraping the ground, making a rustling sound.

After walking non-stop for a while, old Yoan stopped, as if he had made a lot of determination, he looked at An Erji cautiously: "There is one more thing, which has been strictly monitored by our tree spirits. Keep the news." As if he was afraid that he would regret it, he said it all at once: "The water-washed red we have cultivated has another characteristic that we have never dared to say before-after taking the water-washed red fruit, it can still be healthy. A small increase in female life. Although our..."

Before Old Yuean finished speaking, An Erji grabbed his arm.An Erji has always disliked physical contact with people other than Mang Hui, but now, he actually grabbed Old Yoan's arm, which shows how excited he is.He asked in a low voice: "How much time can it increase? How much time can a fruit increase the life of a female?"

"This...we haven't had the chance to do too many experiments yet!" Old Ioan stammered, "Because it has been difficult to cultivate before and couldn't bear a few fruits, we can't do too many experiments. However, according to our estimation , four fruits should be able to increase a female's contracted life by one percent."

An Erji became more excited: "You mean contracted life? So, that is to say, if you take enough water washing red, it is possible for a female to have the same life span as his contracted partner?"

Old Ioan stammered and replied: "In theory, yes! However, we haven't cultivated this kind of fruit for a long time, and we haven't been able to verify it yet!"

An Erji didn't care about the last words of old Yue An at all, he just murmured all the way: "Then, Mang can have a life as long as mine!"

Looking at An Erji's face which rarely showed any expression when he was facing him, old Yoan's eyes darkened.After hesitating for a while, he still said: "There are two points, I want to explain first!"

An Erji's emotions were still immersed in extreme joy, and he responded casually: "Say!"

"The fruit of Washed Red grows by absorbing the magic power of our tree spirit orcs. The orcs of other races have no magic power similar to ours. Therefore, it can only be cultivated by our tree spirit family. Unfortunately, our family An adult orc can only supply one plant with one year's magic power. Its yield cannot be increased. Another point is that Washinghong cannot be taken continuously. It takes about a year for a female to fully absorb a fruit. .”

An Erji finally calmed down.He thought for a while and said: "It's nothing. Our orcs have a long lifespan. Even if a female takes one pill a year, it's enough time....It's just that the output is too small. However, we can slowly find a way in the future." As he said, he formally shook Old Ioan's hand for the first time: "We will leave tomorrow, and when we get back to the clan, I will immediately tell the clan leader about it. I think you don't have to wait too long. Will wait for my people."

Old John cried with joy: "Okay! We are waiting! Thank you! Thank you so much!"

************************************************** *************

Here, An Erji got a piece of good news that would surprise all the orcs of the Golden Light Roar clan.On the other side, Mang Hui was staring at the campfire in a daze.

Of course, the male orcs of the tree spirit clan didn't dare to approach him, and the few remaining females kept timidly leaning against each other, whispering non-stop, completely ignoring the boring Mang Hui.No one spoke, not even a single look fell on him, Mang Hui was so bored that he looked at the sky speechlessly.

Just as he was considering whether to sneak into the house where An Erji and Old Yoan were staying to eavesdrop, a timid little figure caught his attention.That was the only remaining female cub of the Treant Clan. He was secretly observing Mang Hui in a small corner outside the crowd.

This child, who was supposed to be pampered at the age, experienced the baptism of cruel killing early on.The dryads have experienced so much this night and day, and none of them noticed the little figure hiding in the corner, having lost his parents, and perhaps still hungry.

Mang Hui waved to the little figure who had been peeking at him timidly, and said softly, "Come here, I have food here! Come!" He picked up a side of barbecue that he hadn't finished eating, stretched out his hand and handed it to the little figure. guy look.

The little figure hesitated for a while, perhaps attracted by the aroma of the food, and cautiously leaned over, staring at Mang Hui.

Manghui handed him the meat in his hand.The little guy looked carefully at Mang Hui's expression again, and then carefully took the barbecue.Seeing that Mang Hui was still looking at him tenderly, the little guy felt relieved, took the barbecue and hid in the shadow behind Mang Hui, and started to gnaw hungrily.As he gnawed, he hiccupped from being choked, but he refused to slow down his eating speed.Mang Hui had no choice but to turn around slightly, gently patted his back, and handed him another glass of juice.

After a while, the little guy finished eating a large piece of barbecue and a large glass of juice.When Manghui asked him if he wanted more, he shook his head, saying that it was enough.

Still hiding in the shadow behind Mang Hui, the little guy was talking to Mang Hui in a low voice.

Children are the most sensitive, he can feel the kindness that Mang Hui has treated him.Children are also the easiest to please, and after a while, he and Manghui warm up.

As he was talking, suddenly bursts of strange fragrance came to his nostrils.Mang Hui looked up, and saw the orcs of the tree spirit clan forming a circle with four females in the middle.A few orcs were serving bowls of juice-like liquid to the females.The aroma comes from those bowls of fruit juice.

Mang Hui has drunk countless fruit juices, but he has never encountered such an attractive variety.He whispered to the little guy behind him: "Little Cen Cen, what kind of juice are they taking? It smells so good!"

Little Cen Cen looked in the direction of the orcs, hesitated for a moment, then pulled the little hand that was being held by Manghui, leaned over and whispered, "I'll take you there, I know where they are!"

Mang Hui hesitated for a moment: "This...isn't it good?" I'm too old to become a thief out of curiosity, right?

"There are a lot of them, and they are not precious!" Xiao Cen said.

19. Dinner for the Dryads...

After Cen ate Manghui's food, he thought about giving Manghui something too.Children always have strange ideas of equality in their hearts.He insisted on taking Manghui to
