Mao Duoduo mentioned it casually, but Lina and the others stopped in their tracks, clearly indicating that something was wrong.
She was somewhat surprised, glanced at everyone, and said, "Was there something wrong with what I said?"
Upon hearing this, Gal simply looked at Lina and said calmly, "Dodo, there's nothing wrong with what you said... This is something I've wanted to figure out before, but I had to delay it because I was looking for the missing people."
"Now, Miss Lina, please tell us what exactly happened."
He spoke very calmly, yet there was something else about him.
Mao Duoduo twitched the corners of her mouth, and seeing that the atmosphere was not right, she was about to speak when She Rong raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, shaking his head slightly, indicating that something was about to happen.
Well, it seems this isn't something I should be interfering with...
At that moment, Lina chuckled softly.
She simply said, "Indeed, I should explain this to you, otherwise I would be letting you down for risking your lives to rescue me this time."
"To be honest, I've thought about it many times, and I feel that even if the young clan leader and the others came, they would still choose to explain things clearly to you. After all, we have such a good relationship, and we're all friends. Such a secret can't be kept hidden..."
Lina decided to walk along the beach with everyone, explaining as she went. To be honest, the capture of these females was related to the nature of the Shumu tribe.
Their true form is actually a tree, a rather special kind. That's why the giant trees that CatDodo and the others saw in the territory of the Wood Clan were actually transformed from the bodies of some elderly orcs after their deaths.
In their world, trees surround them almost entirely throughout their lives, possessing many unique qualities... Among these, on special days, they inevitably transform into their original form, surrounded and protected by numerous giant trees. They must absorb enough lunar essence to gain further power in order to grow and even reproduce with their own kind and have offspring.
On such a crucial day, it was inevitable that the males and females would have to cultivate separately... It was obvious that Bai Na had somehow learned of this and captured them while everyone was unable to move, severely injuring a group of males.
It could be said that during the days Lina and her fellow females were captured by the Baina people, they were constantly discussing what to do. If females from other races were captured, the outcome would simply be how to reproduce for them.
The problem is that they are members of the Shumu clan, and they themselves have too many secrets. There's a risk that Bai Na might use them for other purposes...
Upon hearing this, the Serpent Rong seemed to be deep in thought.
Looking at the other person's appearance, Maoduo suddenly remembered the changes that had occurred when she had inadvertently witnessed the other person's original form during the past few days of their interaction.
It seems there's some theory that can be derived and applied...
"Alright, don't worry, we will protect you and wait for your compatriots to take you away." After saying this, Gal asked Lina and the others to go back first.
Once they left, Gal looked at everyone and asked, "What are your thoughts?"
Senjie frowned and said, "I can be sure he was serious, but it's obvious he was hiding something."
The Eagle Clan Chief nodded and added, "I don't think they have any ill intentions towards us; on the contrary, they seem to be pleading for our help."
The other answers were the same.
Finally, Gal looked in the direction of CatDodo.
She tried to say, “I suddenly thought of something. It seems that orcs tend to revert to their original form when they reach a high level, there’s a kind of madness in their blood… The Shumu clan might be a type of this that is more extreme. That’s why they increase their strength by transforming into their original form at fixed intervals.”
As for whether it's good or bad, she subconsciously thought that perhaps it could cultivate a very capable person...
The others who heard this also seemed thoughtful.
Gal's eyes darkened, and he said, "Is this the experience you've gained over the past few days?"
Upon hearing this, Mao Duoduo's lips trembled slightly, feeling a little shy and embarrassed. She Rong, standing before her, replied decisively, "Yes."
This time, Serpent and Gal exchanged glances as if they were silently negotiating something, making Senjie and the others uneasy. They kept giving Cat Dodo meaningful glances, trying to get her to stop something bad from happening.
Cat Dodo thought to herself, "If only I had a way!" But seeing everyone's expressions, she gritted her teeth and decided to really charge forward...
"Mother!"
Just then, a group of cubs ran over.
They were so excited that they didn't care about anything else and rushed into Maoduoduo's arms.
Cat Duoduo nearly fell, but thankfully Snake Rong intervened and prevented a disaster. Even so, she was both amused and exasperated, instinctively ruffling each of the cubs' heads before saying, "You bunch of rascals!"
"Hehehe." Snake Three subconsciously rubbed against Cat Duoduo. "Mommy, I missed you so much, more than the others."
"Hey!" Snake One, Snake Two, and Lolo all became dissatisfied, indicating that they had something to say.
CatDodo was both amused and exasperated, and followed SnakeRong, saying, "Then let's go back first."
As Gal watched this scene, a subtle look flickered in his eyes for a moment, but he ultimately said, "Alright."
While waiting for CatDodo and SnakeRong to leave with their cubs, Gal never looked away. The Eagle Clan Chief and the others also decisively led their people away to avoid being targeted by Gal.
Senjie sighed and said uneasily, "Young master, let's go. Let's not look at her like this anymore..."
“Uncle Senjie, my father said that as long as you are willing to work hard, there is no female that cannot be stolen away.” Gal smirked, his eyes gleaming with determination.
"What good is a good relationship now? I can still succeed. Competition will always exist in the orc world..."
Hearing this, what could Senjie say? He could only force a smile and think to himself that the old master's way of raising his son was terrible.
As for returning to the new tribal city, CatDodo and the others quickly got their own houses—very bright and comfortable, with each little guy having his own independent little room.
It was quite obvious, however, that they refused to go to sleep at night, insisting instead on pitifully sleeping with Maoduo and the others...
She Rong, with a sullen face, threw them away one by one, then blocked the door and carried the cat Duo Duo into the basement in a princess carry.
This is the only place where absolutely no one will come...
The two indulged in unrestrained intimacy, gradually trying out new and exciting actions, opening up entirely new doors.
