Chapter 198

Xiong Anning tried to do something to save the situation, but when the snow season came, he could do nothing. Although his physical fitness had improved a lot after taking the magic fruit, the snow season was too cold, and there was no heating or air conditioning to keep warm. Even if he burned charcoal and made quilts and cotton clothes, he couldn't leave his residence and go outside.

Moreover, during this snowy season, She Rui was the only one by his side, but She Rui spent most of his time sleeping. Even when he was not sleeping, his body temperature was much lower than usual, which reminded him that snakes are cold-blooded animals.

He missed the warmth of the other people, but he couldn't go out to look for them, and yet he couldn't see them.

The long snow season finally ended. Xiong Anning took the plan he wrote down during the snow season and couldn't wait to find Shi Yang, Lang Tian, Yi Huang and others. However, he couldn't do it alone, so he asked She Rui to take him there. At this time, he didn't notice the coldness that flashed in She Rui's eyes.

Although Xiong Anning didn't like having other orcs around him, Hu Li spent the longest time with him. But Hu Li was injured. During the entire snow season, Xiong Anning only complained about why Hu Li didn't come to see him, but never asked about Hu Li's injury.

She Rui became more and more doubtful about his original decision, but still followed Xiong An Ning's instructions and sent him to the nearest lion tribe, leaving him to Shi Yang.

The priest of the Lion Tribe looked at what Xiong Anning took out and tacitly agreed that he should stay. But when Xiong Anning suggested that they also build a city of their own, and that the city built by the three major tribes would definitely be more magnificent than those built by the small and medium-sized tribes, the priest said that he needed to think about it.

Xiong Anning was very frustrated that he failed to convince the lion priest and the chief. In his opinion, it was a good thing, and it could suppress the orc city built by Bao Yuanjing and others. However, he didn't know that it would take a lot of problems to unite the three tribes. They could work together to deal with the Jianlong tribe and those small and medium tribes, but who would provide the manpower to build the city? And who would have the jurisdiction after the city was built? If these problems were not solved, the city would never be built.

The current situation in the Orc Continent is very different from that in the plot.

Because the attitude of the tribe leader and the priest was not positive, Xiong Anning went to find Shi Yang again. He didn't believe that Shi Yang and his men couldn't build a city. But Shi Yang's status in the tribe was not as high as before. The orcs who had given up competing with him had jumped out again. Xiong Anning wanted to find him such a job again, and Shi Yang was very angry.

"An Ning, do you know how much manpower and material resources are needed to build a city like this? Where do these people and building materials come from? They can't just fall from the sky. I am just the young patriarch now, but everyone in the tribe listens to the patriarch and the priest. I can't mobilize many people."

"Then discuss it with Lang Tianyihuang and the others. Aren't Bao Yuanjing and the others currently building a city?"

"That's because their leader took the lead and agreed, and the entire tribe went out together. An Ning, can you wait a little longer? When I become the tribe leader, I will definitely convince Yihuang and the others to build this city together."

"After all this talk, you just don't want to build it now? Are we just going to watch Bao Yuanjing and the others build the orc city?" Xiong Anning was used to having everything go his way, and he didn't expect to be rejected by Shi Yang. He was very angry.

Shi Yang didn't want to continue to argue with Xiong An Ning on this issue, so he sent Xiong An Ning to Lang Tian. Lang Tian's life was not much better than his. After one snow season, the Wolf Tribe lost a lot of population. Some were expelled by them, some took advantage of the snow season to leave, and they were scattered and no one noticed. It was not until the end of the snow season that they discovered that many of them had left. They all went to join the Leopard Tribe, forcing the Wolf Tribe to think twice before making trouble.

So Xiong Anning was sent to Yihuang again, and after a circle, he returned to She Rui. She Rui told him the truth that they simply did not have the strength and ability to build a city now.

In fact, She Rui didn't understand why Xiong An Ning was so obsessed with building a city. Was building a city really that important? Their tribes had been accustomed to living in groups for many years. It had been like this for generations. Wasn't it good? If they each took control of the tribe, then in order to please Xiong An Ning, they might not care about mobilizing the tribe to build a city.

Xiong Anning was extremely angry, but no one listened to him. Why was it so difficult to communicate with these primitive people?

While Xiong Anning was constantly struggling, the orc city was being built rapidly, and it could be said that it was changing every day.

The strong orcs participated in the city building, while the weak demi-humans, under the leadership of the demi-humans from the Stegosaurus tribe, reclaimed large amounts of land and cultivated the land. They could not let the city building delay such important matters as farming and obtaining food, otherwise they would have to worry about food again in the next snow season.

Hunting teams would also take turns going out hunting, and the orcs needed to eat a lot of meat.

They will first build the inner city, and then expand outward on this basis to build the outer city. The orc sub-humans who participate in the city construction will of course become the first people to live in the inner city and enjoy the various benefits in the orc city first.

It's not that the three major tribes had not thought about coming to cause trouble, but now these tribes gathered together have a total of more than ten high-level totem warriors. Even if the high-level totem warriors of the three major tribes came out in full force, they might not be able to destroy them all, not to mention there is a sub-human leader with unfathomable strength. So after several small-scale harassments were forcefully suppressed, the three major tribes could only adopt a wait-and-see attitude.

The top leaders of the three major tribes were not in a good mood as they watched these people working so hard.

The six flying beasts played a very important role. They patrolled the air with the flying orcs all day long to prevent any enemy attacks. Those flying orcs were rescued by Yuan Jing and Xiong Feng during the snow season, so they were conscientious in making arrangements for Yuan Jing.

When the rainy season came, they moved into new houses, so everyone who participated in building the city was allocated a brand new house, and it was up to them to arrange it themselves, including the Lizard Tribe. The area allocated to them happened to have a swamp, and they took advantage of the rainy season to rearrange the swamp.

"Don't mention it, the place we live in now is much better than the original tribe. This house is so spacious and comfortable."

"There are also special toilets and a special place to pour used water. This way, the place where we live is much cleaner and fresher."

"That's right, let's go to the trading area and take a look. The trading area is open today. I have saved up a lot of things. I wonder if anyone would like to trade them."

"What are you waiting for? Let's go now. I heard that the Stegosaurus Tribe has the most good stuff."

"I know, I know. I heard that the people of the Stegosaurus Tribe want to set up a stall to sell freshly made food. The food made by the Stegosaurus Tribe is the most delicious. I must eat my fill today."

When the trading area was opened for the first time, Yuan Jing and Xiong Feng also went to join in the fun and set up a barbecue stall to sell skewers. The other people in the Stegosaurus Tribe did not compete with their leader and racked their brains to set up other stalls.

As a result, when people from other tribes arrived, the first thing they smelled was the fragrance wafting from Yuan Jing's stall, which made them drool. Their first target was to rush to this stall, but they didn't expect to see the leader of the Stegosaurus tribe and Xiong Feng, a high-level totem warrior. It was quite scary.

"Selling grilled meat skewers. One shell and one skewer of grilled meat. If they don't taste good, I won't charge you." Xiong Feng, who was helping at the side, shouted. It was the first time he did something like this and he thought it was a lot of fun.

"Shell? What's that?"

"You can go to the trading area management department to exchange shells. Shells can be bought and sold throughout the tribe."

Someone immediately went over there to see about the exchange of shells. Now the orc city is jointly managed by several tribes, but because the major ideas were all proposed by Yuan Jing, they recommended Yuan Jing as the first lord of the orc city. Yuan Jing then proposed the issue of unified currency. At this time, there were already places that used shells as currency. Yuan Jing thought that he could make do with it for now and exchange it for other things later.

Now we need to let the people in the city gradually adapt to the use of shells as a currency.

Those who were brave enough to try switched to shells, and then tried the grilled skewers sold by Yuan Jing. They were so delicious that they quickly bought several more skewers.

As time passed, other stalls also became popular, and the trading area, which was opened for the first time, was very lively.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

Shells as currency have been replaced by copper coins, and above copper coins there are silver coins and gold coins. The orc city is becoming more and more prosperous, and the construction of the outer city is also on the agenda. However, this time there is no need for everyone to participate in the construction of the city, because other tribes are attracted by the orc city and defected here. They are the main force in building the outer city. The orc city provides them with food and drink, and they can be allocated houses to live in after completing certain tasks.

Yuan Jing, the city lord, is recognized by everyone, and Xiong Feng is the captain of the first hunting team in the orc city. However, the hunting team now has a dual meaning. It not only needs to go out hunting, but also has the task of maintaining the safety of the orc city and resisting foreign enemies.

Yuan Jing felt that this position was good and suitable for Xiong Feng. It gave him something to do so that he wouldn't have to stick to him all day long. He was almost becoming a pendant on him.

Now the Orc City has ten hunting teams, each led by a high-level totem warrior. A year ago, the three major tribes attacked the Orc City again, but only half of the ten hunting teams were able to break up the joint attack of the three major tribes and defeat the enemy. As a result, the reputation of the Orc City spread even further.

Ever since the combined forces of the three tribes were defeated by the orc city, races that were dependent on the three tribes have often broken away and come to seek refuge in the orc city. These people are the vital force for building the outer city.

It was Xiong Feng's turn to rest. He took Yuan Jing for a walk around the city to try the various foods that were being developed more and more, as well as the new gadgets brought in by the orcs and subhumans from outside.

Three years later, Xiong Feng has become much more mature. Yuan Jing feels more and more that it is the right decision to let him be the captain of the hunting team. With a burden on his shoulders, people will become more responsible.

"Yuanyuan, I led the team out a little further this time and heard a piece of news that the three major tribes have decided to build a city to compete with our orc city."

Yuan Jing laughed: "They are finally going to build a city. Building a city is also good. We can't just have this one orc city. In the future, when this outer city is full of people, we can also build a smaller satellite city next to it."

"Yuanyuan, what you said must make sense." Sometimes, Xiong Feng is still the same Xiong Feng as before, and everything Yuanyuan says is correct.

Yuan Jing smiled: "The battle a year ago caused the strength of those three tribes to decline a lot. They no longer have the strength to fight against our orc city."

The two walked and talked until they came to the outer city which was under construction. Someone was maintaining order. Xiong Feng stopped and pointed ahead: "Yuanyuan, look, there is a new tribe coming to our orc city, but where are they from? They are still wearing little leather skirts? Hey, let's go back to the inner city."

Xiong Feng felt that it was okay for him to see it, but it would hurt Yuan Jing's eyes if he saw it. If he had to see it, he could only see his. Not to mention, he was used to seeing everyone wearing clothes made of linen and cotton, and now seeing these orcs who were only wearing a small leather skirt was very uncomfortable. Looking at these people now, people would definitely say that they were country bumpkins.

Yuan Jing pulled Xiong Feng aside and said, "A few of them look familiar. Let's see where they are from."

"It's ugly, isn't it?" Xiong Feng confirmed.

"Of course, I couldn't get used to it at first, and it's even more impossible now."

Xiong Feng was now satisfied, and agreed to go with Yuan Jing to see where these people came from. He didn't think any of them looked familiar.

These people who had just entered and looked disheveled were stopped by the patrol team that was maintaining order. One of the young and strong orcs came out to answer them. It was obvious from their expressions that they were very cautious, because everywhere he looked, they were all wearing clothes made of very fine fabrics, and their bodies were very neat and clean. Unlike them, they had a sour smell on their bodies and their feet were covered in mud, which made the clean road surface dirty.

"We are from the Ox Tribe, and we want to seek refuge in the Orc city. We are from the same place as the Stegosaurus Tribe. The leader of the Stegosaurus Tribe must know that we are from the Ox Tribe. Really, I am not lying." The young orc said nervously.

The Ox Tribe? Yuan Jing and Xiong Feng looked at each other. They didn't expect it to be them. No wonder Yuan Jing said that some of them looked familiar. Xiong Feng was still young at the time. How could he remember a few people? Even if the people of the Bear Tribe appeared in front of him, he probably wouldn't recognize any of them.

"Then do you know the rules of our orc city? Anyone who comes to seek refuge must follow the rules, even if you know our city lord. This is what the city lord has instructed." When the captain of the patrol team said that he knew the city lord and was from the same place, he did not doubt it, because everyone knew that the Stegosaurus Tribe came from that barren continent, but no one could deny how powerful the city lord and the Stegosaurus Tribe were.

"Yes, yes, we will follow the rules, we will definitely follow the rules." As long as they are allowed to stay, they are willing to abide by any rules, because they have heard that as long as they enter the orc city, they will have enough food to eat and no one will starve to death, no one will freeze to death during the snowy season, and living in the city, they will never be attacked by fierce and ferocious beasts, because the orc city has totem warriors to protect the people in the city.

They originally wanted to shamelessly beg the leader of the Stegosaurus Tribe to let them move in, but they didn't expect that they didn't have to see the leader at all. But now they called him the city lord instead of the leader?

"Is the city lord still the leader of the Sword Dragon Tribe?"

"Of course, our city lord is the sub-human leopard Yuan Jing, who was also the leader of the Stegosaurus tribe. Without our city lord, there would be no orc city today." Speaking of the city lord, the captain of the patrol team said proudly.

The people of the Ox Tribe were extremely shocked. Who could have thought that the sub-human could become the lord of such a big city? Think about the herbivorous tribe back then. Those people must be living a good life now.

Knowing the situation here, they had already regretted it. It was Leopard Yuanjing who gave them the opportunity to join the Stegosaurus Tribe, but they did not believe in Leopard Yuanjing's ability, otherwise they would have been able to become one of these glamorous people now.

Yuan Jing took a quick look and whispered, "There is no one from the Bear Tribe. Didn't they say that the Bear Tribe is together with the Ox Tribe?"

"Who knows? We can just ask someone later. Tu Yan and his men are quite familiar with the Niu Tribe."

After returning, Xiong Feng went to talk to Tu Yan about this. Tu Yan now led a hunting team and became a high-level totem warrior. When he heard Xiong Feng say that he had encountered the Ox Tribe coming to seek refuge, he was also surprised: "Okay, I'll go over and see if I know anyone there. I've dealt with them a lot in the past, so it's a good opportunity to ask about the situation of the Bear Tribe."

Tu Yan went out for a walk and came back feeling extremely emotional. The Ox Tribe, which was once much stronger than the Herbivorous Tribe, has now fallen to such a state. At first, the people in the Ox Tribe did not recognize him, but when he told them his identity, they all showed surprised expressions, and then envy. If they knew that he was already a high-level totem warrior, they would be so surprised that their jaws would drop.

Just as Tu Yan thought, after Tu Yan left, someone from the Ox Tribe asked the patrol team about Tu Yan's situation. The patrol team looked longing: "Captain Tu Yan, you are talking about him. He is the captain of the hunting team. Do you know the hunting team? That is a much stronger team than our patrol team. All of us hope to join the hunting team one day. The hunting team is so powerful, and the captain of the hunting team is a high-level totem warrior."

The people of the Ox Tribe were so shocked that their jaws dropped. Was Tu Yan a high-level totem warrior? Or was he the captain of the hunting team?

"Why, do you look down on our Captain Tu Yan? Although Captain Tu Yan is a rabbit-shaped orc, he is not weak at all. In the battle last year, Captain Tu Yan injured a high-level totem warrior of the Feather Tribe. The guy had no choice but to flee, otherwise he would have lost his life."

The people of the Ox Tribe were completely dumbfounded.

Tu Yan brought back the news from the Ox Tribe. The two tribes were indeed together before, but for some reason, the Bear Tribe still had to think about it, and the Ox Tribe came first. Tu Yan felt that the people of the Bear Tribe were afraid of the city lord and captains Xiong Feng and Xiong Gu, so they did not dare to come.

"They also told me one thing. The priest of the bear tribe didn't make it through the last snow season. He was injured and never recovered. Last snow season, he completely returned to the embrace of the beast god."

Yuan Jing expressed regret that he died so early.
