The swallowtail butterfly was washing its hands when it suddenly felt a chill down its back.

Looking back, she saw a giant crocodile, nearly 20 meters long, staring straight at her.

"Ah! A crocodile!"

A sharp scream echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

Under the cover of the rainy weather, the crocodile slowly approached, completely unconcerned about the orcs' panic.

Seeing the crocodile still approaching, Mao Ning gave the order: "Everyone climb the trees, quick! Protect the females!"

This was the first time Sheng Xia had ever seen such a scene, and she was stunned on the spot.

She discovered that she might have megalophobia.

Staring at me from the crocodile's cold, vertical pupils, I felt as if I were locked onto.

She can't move!

The wolf king noticed that the female was frightened. Without time to comfort her, he picked her up and carried her up the tree, saying, "Shengxia, hold on tight to Yangyun."

Summer came back to life, her blood began to circulate, she moved her eyes, and her will to survive exploded instantly.

She grabbed the hand that Yang Yun offered from the tree and climbed up smoothly by stepping on Lang Jun's shoulders.

The crocodile suddenly lunged at the nearest orc.

The immense force caused the orc climbing the tree to lose his balance and fall.

Everyone gasped, their hearts leaping into their throats.

Long Yue threw a sharp bone knife, which hit the crocodile in the eye.

The crocodile, having lost an eye, flew into a rage and began tearing apart everything around it.

Mao Ning frowned. Without females, they could easily kill the crocodile.

Catching such a crocodile will save us time searching for food and allow us to travel further.

Hesitating, the crocodile crashed into the nearest tree, which happened to be the one where Sheng Xia was.

In the height of summer, she bit her lip tightly, afraid to make a sound. Sweat soaked her bangs, and large tears fell like beads from a broken string.

The wolf king was at the bottom. With the crocodile ramming into it, the tree was swaying and could no longer support the three people.

Nothing can go wrong in the height of summer!

As if he had made up his mind, he looked up and gave Yang Yun a look, then resolutely jumped down.

Wolf King jumped onto the crocodile's head and used his hands and feet to tightly close the crocodile's huge mouth.

Shengxia wiped away her tears and told herself that she must not panic, as the wolf king was still down below.

She looked at Mao Ning with a solemn expression: "Mao Ning, please organize a team immediately to kill the crocodile together."

Without further hesitation, Mao Ning organized a group of people to attack the crocodile.

The crocodile's skin was extremely thick, and the group's attacks only made it angrier, and it looked like the wolf king was about to give up.

Suddenly, the orange fell down and was swept into the grass by the crocodile's tail.

"Ahhhhhh!!!! Help me!!!"

The males that were fighting immediately withdrew and ran towards Orange.

Fortunately, she was alright.

With everyone working together, they used a strategy of attrition to wear down the crocodile until it died.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The males, now out of battle, immediately transformed into caring gentlemen, quietly comforting their partners.

In the height of summer, she threw herself into the wolf king's arms and burst into tears: "I thought you were going to die."

"It's alright, it's alright, I'm fine." The wolf king tenderly stroked the female's soft, flowing hair.

"Don't do such dangerous things again!" Sheng Xia knew she was being unreasonable, but she had lost her temper.

Finally, the crocodiles were taken to the riverbank, dismantled, cleaned, roasted over a fire, and distributed.

Mao Ning remained calm: "The rain has stopped. Now let's hurry out of the jungle and spend the night in the Yafatu Grassland."

A large group of orcs began their advance.

Danger lurks everywhere in the primeval forest.

Termite nests are everywhere, and blood-sucking leeches are also silently and insidiously penetrating every nook and cranny.

If you get bitten by a spider or snake, there's no way to recover.

For safety reasons, Maoning arranged for people to take turns scouting ahead, while he directed operations remotely from nearby.

Seeing this, Shengxia quietly gave Wolf King a bunch of insect repellent: "Apply more to your body later, don't worry about wasting it, there's plenty more."

Wolf King's heart skipped a beat, and he chuckled softly, "Alright."

They continued deeper into the dense forest, and after an unknown amount of time, the view suddenly opened up before them.

The sunlight, as if finding an outlet, rushed in eagerly.

In the height of summer, her eyes crinkled as she squinted at the bright sunlight before her.

The wolf king embraced her from behind, watching her smile radiantly.

Yang Yun lagged behind, her thin figure appearing extremely lonely.

The boy was sensitive and thoughtful, with both low self-esteem and stubbornness.

The Wolf King was too powerful, like the moon in the sky, aloof and untouchable, an existence that he could never reach.

He knew this perfectly well, but seeing the scene before him, he could no longer suppress his jealousy.

He didn't expect Sheng Xia to like him, but seeing her eyes and heart filled with thoughts of someone else, his heart ached so much he felt like he was suffocating.

Looking back in the height of summer, she unexpectedly met Yang Yun's complicated gaze.

Although he quickly lowered his head, Sheng Xia clearly saw the complexity in his eyes.

Seeing Yang Yun's red eyes, she felt inexplicably guilty.

"Once we reach the top of this mountain, we'll be there. Everyone, hang in there a little longer and protect the females!" Mao Ning, who had been calm the whole time, finally showed a hint of relief.

Climbing a deserted mountain and climbing a mountain in a scenic area are completely different experiences.

In just ten minutes, Shengxia went from being full of enthusiasm to being listless.

The slopes of the barren mountain are even steeper.

There are no footboards, no winding mountain roads, and no guardrails here.

Some of the rocks underfoot were smooth and round, while others were incredibly sharp.

Every step must be taken with extreme care.

The higher you go, the steeper the mountain path becomes.

Braving the scorching sun, we traversed mountains and valleys, heading straight for the summit.

The road finally appeared when we were almost at our destination.

However, in Shengxia's eyes, those were not roads, but merely stone steps.

After trekking through mountains and rivers, we finally arrived at the mountaintop village in the afternoon.

Looking around, the entire village is filled with wooden plank and thatched houses.

Mao Ning led the group to the entrance and explained their purpose to the chief: "We are from the Yafatu tribe, and we have come to participate in the trade fair."

"Go in." The chief, who looked to be in his thirties, was lazy and didn't even look at people.

Just as they entered, another large tribe arrived in force, and Shengxia looked back.

The chieftain, all smiles, scurried out to greet them, fawning over the leader.

She was dumbfounded. Did this beast world really have people who fawn over the powerful and bully the weak?

Wolf King was charmed by her surprised expression; he could tell at a glance what she was thinking.

He chuckled softly: "That's Lion King, the leader of the Leo tribe. Their tribe is the most powerful force on the entire orc continent, and everyone gives them some respect."

Sheng Xia looked back with curiosity, turning back every few steps.

Suddenly a beautiful woman came into view.

The female was wearing gauze clothing!

Her fair skin made her stand out from the crowd of people with tanned skin.

Her jet-black hair fell naturally over her chest, and her full breasts were faintly visible beneath her animal-skin skirt.

She's even more beautiful than the female lead?
