The snake cubs are really trying their best.
They could sense the intense killing intent emanating from the male orcs chasing them, perfectly avoiding the more easily spotted CatDodo and instead coming after them.
This is really troublesome. If they don't escape quickly, things will likely get very difficult for them...
However, just as the males easily took out their weapons, preparing to shoot them dead, the snake cubs heard Catdodo cry out in alarm. Then, with a whoosh, all the arrows they had fired were knocked down in an instant.
Even the beastmen responsible for the pursuit were thrown heavily to the ground, looking extremely disheveled and pitiful.
This was just a show of force.
"Snake One, are you alright?" Cat Dodo arrived at that moment and anxiously checked on them.
“Mother, we’re fine. It’s just that they look like they’re about to collapse from exhaustion,” Snake Three said.
Snake One and Snake Two were preparing to give the other party a warning: there are some things that should absolutely not be said casually.
As a result, the person who had just made a move launched another attack, clearly aiming to kill them.
One after another, the figures of giant snakes surged forward, easily engaging the scorpions in combat, nearly strangling several of them to death.
Most importantly, because of their involvement, the scorpion orc captain showed displeasure and immediately transformed into his original form, preparing to give them a warning.
The result was a chaotic battle, making it seem like everyone was about to lose their ability to eat and drink.
"You actually came!"
"Aren't you afraid we'll continue fighting alongside you?"
"They are Lord Gigi's targets. Anyone who dares to obstruct our goal is—"
The scorpion orc captain didn't have a chance to finish his threatening words.
Because in the very next second, the giant snakes burst into laughter, making no attempt to conceal their hostility and disgust.
As for the other orcs, they seemed to have already lost their composure, and they all put down their weapons and ran away.
"Damn it, you guys are really—" The captain couldn't take it anymore and turned around to start running.
Seeing this, Maoduo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Very good, very good, I can finally rest easy.
The group of giant snakes also reverted to human form at this moment, moving their bodies, actually wanting to give CatDodo and his group a proper show. They were actually quite good-looking, each with a robust physique and well-developed pectoral muscles, making them look very delicious at first glance.
Here's the key point: they immediately shared a common understanding.
“We helped, but I’m afraid he’ll inform that guy Gigi and let word get out that he asked us to help you.”
"Hmm, will this cause you any trouble?" CatDodo asked rather proactively. After all, the Snake Demon Clan had helped him a lot before.
The snake demon clan squad leader shook his head. "Don't worry, our relationship with them is terrible. Whether we help them or not won't change our hatred for them."
Alright, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, that saying is absolutely true.
CatDodo thought to herself, a genuine expression on her face, "It seems we need to find a new place to live as soon as possible, or our address might have been exposed."
What exactly did Rabbit Spirit and Leopard Fierce say to Lord Gigi...?
"Okay, I understand. Come with us."
The desert snake clan squad leader nodded and reported the intelligence he had uncovered, which was simply to stay temporarily in a nearby place.
Their headquarters won't tell them right away. Even among the Desert Serpent Clan, who have very good relationships, some members inevitably choose to live alone. Such loosely organized groups can simply use each other's spaces.
In this way, Maoduo and her group were brought to a place where there weren't many snake-kin beastmen. She didn't care too much about it.
But as soon as she arrived, she noticed something. The snake tribe seemed to be suffering from severe water shortages, and many of the snake cubs were already showing signs of being thin, weak, and malnourished.
In modern times, people in this situation would simply be given vitamin pills. But here's the problem: this is in the desert.
Cat Duoduo couldn't sit still, mainly because she saw that the snake cubs who were about the same age as Snake Yi all had five-fold bellies and looked like they had an indescribable sadness in their eyes. So she got up and made them a refreshing dish of stir-fried shredded potatoes with vinegar.
This was just the beginning. She then worked even harder to use the available ingredients around her to take good care of the cubs.
It's obvious that she didn't think her actions were anything special, but she still managed to attract a lot of attention.
They all wanted to know just how far Maoduo could go.
"This is a very easy potato to grow. You can't plant it right away when it sprouts; you can wait until it cools down a bit more before planting."
"By the way, this kind of vegetable is actually nutritious. It doesn't matter if adults don't eat it, but children need to be provided with more nutrition so that they can grow up properly."
Dodo the cat has her own ideas, and she genuinely hopes that these cubs can have a healthy life.
It was quite obvious that the knowledge she taught was not only appreciated by the cubs, but also by the adult beastmen, who all showed expressions of anticipation and eagerness to learn after listening to it.
Since someone was already seriously studying it, Maoduoduo decided to finish quickly.
When Maoduoduo was getting hoarse from talking, she noticed a water bag placed in front of her. Upon closer inspection, she recognized it as a snake-like creature.
"Thanks." Maoduoduo felt like she had finally raised a kitten that had grown up.
See? Even the Serpent Rong are now listening to her.
In fact, She Rong simply sat down to the side and watched as Mao Duoduo started their mutual flattery again, which left him in a complicated state.
It's absolutely impossible for him to have his mind completely focused on one female.
Perhaps it's because he was too influenced by the cat...
"Thank you so much. If it weren't for your help in teaching us, we probably wouldn't have discovered these things." The squad leader finally expressed his sincere gratitude.
Upon hearing this, Mao Duoduo wanted to say that there was no need to thank her, as she was not helping people with the intention of gaining anything in return.
As a result, the squad leader, seemingly to repay a debt of gratitude, arranged for a group of beastmen to hunt extensively and bring back some of the more distinctive foods found in this desert...
"Hey, a lizard, I'm a little scared." Cat Dodo's hands were trembling. She was absolutely sure she wasn't mistaken; this lizard was definitely a protected animal that people in modern times would be afraid to even sleep in.
Help! She was terrified; just looking at it gave her nightmares. Especially the roasted lizard—she had absolutely no appetite for it…
