Chapter 167 Sophie's Suspicion
At this point, Zeref couldn't help but chuckle.
The Holy City only has so much wealth, and Ophelia has already developed the skill of making sugar.
If she learned to weave, I'm afraid the Fu tribe alone would not be able to accommodate her.
Someone as capable as her should have a broader world. Perhaps one day she will come to the Holy City.
"Go to the Pterosaur Tribe's weaving workshop, get a loom, and send it to Maya in Myriad Beasts City."
"yes."
"What about the purple crystal?" Jiuying asked.
Zeref raised an eyebrow. "Why would Klein bother with her business?"
Sophie couldn't hear clearly outside, but she vaguely heard the words "Wanshou City Loom".
She always felt that something had changed since Zerev returned from the City of Beasts, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
Zeref, who used to dislike wearing long linen shirts because of the heat, now wears a long shirt no matter where he goes.
Except for necessary areas such as the head, neck and wrists, other skin should be kept hidden if possible.
In the Holy City, this has almost become an anomaly among males.
Sophie also wondered if Leif had experienced something in the City of Beasts.
But no matter how she inquired, Zeref remained tight-lipped about the affairs of the City of Beasts.
The only person who went with him was Jiuying, who was his confidant.
She didn't get anything out of him.
This made Sophie even more curious.
She returned home with wild thoughts in her mind and sat in her room, lost in thought.
Brada, who had come looking for her, saw her sister lost in thought and asked, "Did you go to Zeref's again today? Has he not seen you yet?"
Brada was helpless about her sister's persistence.
Zeref must be blind to look down on such a noble sister of his.
"Sister, let me say that although Zeref is good-looking, the other males in the Holy City are not bad either. Why don't we find someone else?"
Hearing her brother say this, Sophie immediately retorted, "I don't want it, brother. I want Zeref."
"I don't want any other partner except him."
In the Holy City, since the status of each family is very noble, most of them practice monogamy.
Only in very few families will polyandry occur.
Seeing that his sister was so persistent, Brada didn't dare to say anything more, otherwise the two of them might get angry and quarrel again.
"The head of the Pterosaur family has acknowledged your engagement. Your partnership is a foregone conclusion. You and Zeref will be partners sooner or later. What are you still worried about?"
"Brother, I always feel like something is wrong."
"How about you go to Beast City for me and find out what happened to Zeref in Beast City?"
Brada thought her sister was overthinking things. "What could a male like him do in the City of Beasts?"
"He wouldn't be paired with a lowly little female, would he?"
Seeing his sister's gloomy face, Brada's face became serious.
"Did you discover something?"
"No, but I always feel a little uneasy. Brother, please go there for me." Sophie tugged at Brada's sleeve and spoke softly and coquettishly.
The male smiled indulgently. "Okay, I promise you."
"Then go quickly, brother."
Brada held his forehead with his hand. "You have to wait until I finish the things I'm doing."
Sophie pushed Brada out the door with a smile.
"Then brother, you should go and take care of it so that we can set off as soon as possible."
Brada shook his head helplessly and left.
With Zeref's help, the loom was delivered to the Fu tribe ten days later.
Meanwhile, Ophelia was checking her bow and arrow.
A few days ago, she discovered a clever and dexterous young male named Lan Tai among the new males who had joined the tribe.
Ever since she saw the wooden shovel and rake made by Lantai, Ophelia had a bold plan in her mind.
She took out the bow and arrow she bought from the system mall and asked Lan Tai to learn how to replicate it.
Since there were no fine iron arrowheads, she asked the male to use sharpened stones instead.
Unexpectedly, in just a few days, Lan Tai made an identical bow and arrow.
Except for the arrows, it is almost 100% restored.
"Lantai, you can do it." Ophelia tried the bow and arrow in her hand, her eyes curved with a smile.
"By the way, what material is your bowstring made of?"
Lan Tai was very happy to see Ophelia's satisfied look and received the affirmation.
"We use the tendons of prey; they are elastic and not easily broken."
Ophelia tried it. Although the power of this wooden arrow was not as strong as those produced by the system, it was much better than those of the goat tribe.
Males have a natural love for things like weapons.
Taylor and Klein's eyes lit up when they saw the bow and arrow.
Ophelia looked at them. "Would you like to give it a try?"
"good."
"Can."
So Ophelia carefully explained to them how to use the bow and arrow.
After they met, they gradually became familiar with each other.
Klein even shot a wild pigeon resting in a tree with his bow and arrow.
Seeing the pigeon on the ground, Ophelia gave an approving look. "Klein, you have good aim."
"Not bad." Klein smiled modestly.
Taylor was not to be outdone and shot an arrow at a tree trunk a hundred meters away.
Ophelia went over to check and found that the entire arrow had been shot into the tree trunk.
Taylor stepped forward and, with some effort, pulled the line free from the tree trunk.
Klein reached out and touched the arrow hole in the tree trunk, his eyes trembling.
"This thing is surprisingly powerful."
"If it hits a person..." Although he won't die, he will be seriously injured.
If the bullet hits the vital points, such as the heart and the head, the person will die instantly.
Klein looked at the bow in his hand, feeling a little nervous. "Ophelia, such a powerful thing must not be known to others."
Taylor and Klein's eyes instantly fell on Lan Tai.
Lan Tai knew the power of this bow and arrow ever since he created it.
He faced the fiery gaze, remaining calm and composed. "Don't worry, since I've chosen to join the Fu tribe, I won't betray it."
"No, you must swear to the Beast God that you won't leak this." Klein never trusted people's hearts.
Taylor pursed his lips, that's what he meant.
Lantai looked at Ophelia.
Ophelia pondered for a moment before speaking. "I have some other things here. As long as you promise not to leak them, you can study them later."
As she spoke, Ophelia took out a crossbow from her backpack.
Then he pulled the switch in front of the three people, and three tiny arrows shot out quickly.
The speed was so fast that the three males opened their eyes wide.
Lantai's eyes fell on the hen in Ophelia's hand, and he was very excited.
It's just such a small thing, but it can actually shoot three arrows at the same time. It's so powerful.
He was eager to know the principle behind it.
He has liked tinkering with strange things since he was a child and is not keen on hunting.
Therefore, he was not liked by his original tribe, so he chose to join the Fu tribe.
Now he was very sure that joining the Fu tribe was the right choice.
"Okay, I'm willing to swear."
Lan Tai followed Klein's instructions and swore an oath to the Beast God.
Once an oath is made, it must be followed, otherwise one will be punished by the Beast God.
Satisfied, Ophelia tossed the crossbow into his arms. "Take it and study it. I hope you can make it soon."
