Chapter 222 Give Them a Handful of Candy
Ye Luoxing originally wanted to go to the Overlord competition venue on the left, but it was too late now. Thinking of what Tabor and Sova had said before, she decided not to go for the time being. Although she never learned about others from their words, she had already seen Ji Mu and the others who were difficult to get along with. They also knew Krolin, so it was always a good idea for her to be more careful.
But she always has to go to the left side. She may have to stay in Beast City for a while this time, and she also needs to collect information, so she must understand all the territories of Beast City clearly. Besides, she also wants to improve her strength through the Overlord Tournament, so she has to go to both sides.
Ye Luoxing walked back at a moderate pace, mainly because he wanted to learn more about the Beast City.
It took her less than the time to go back. She returned to the branch road in less than an hour. Before she walked back to the wooden house, she saw Sova and the others flying in this direction, as if looking for her. Obviously they had discovered that she was not in the wooden house. Ye Luoxing raised her hand and waved to Sova and the others.
Sova in the sky immediately locked onto her, and in less than half a minute, he landed right in front of her.
He looked her up and down nervously and asked, "Female Ye Luoxing, are you okay? Where did you go just now?"
Ye Luoxing walked forward and said, "I'm fine. I went for a walk on the street."
Sova and the others followed him and said, "Did you go there alone? When did you go? We didn't even notice you. You should ask us to come with you next time you go out. There are all kinds of orcs in the Beast City, and I'm really worried."
Ye Luoxing turned to him and said seriously, "Sova, thank you for your concern, but I have already told you this this afternoon, so if you see me not in the cabin in the future, don't worry, I will be back after I finish my work. Most of the time I want to act alone and cannot call you all the time."
The refusal in her words was obvious, but her attitude was polite.
Sova and the others heard it clearly. She didn't want them to follow her at any time. Sova pursed her lips slightly, feeling a little lost.
But he could understand her decision. She was an excellent person and he respected her decision, but he still worried about her safety.
He discussed with her, "Female Ye Luoxing, can you live in the inner city? Or, if you don't want us to follow you, I can call a higher-level noble beast to protect you, or let the elders protect you."
"No need to trouble them, I can protect myself." Ye Luoxing gently refused.
Sova no longer insisted. It seemed that once this female beast made a decision, she would not change it. He could only discuss it with Tabor tomorrow.
Sova and the others escorted her back to the cabin, and they still stood guard outside the cabin.
Ye Luoxing asked with concern: "Don't you need to rest?"
Sova said softly: "We will take turns to rest. The wooden house on the side street is where the patrol team and we rest."
Ye Luoxing looked to the left. She lived in a wooden house at the end of the branch road. Opposite her was where Enya and her companions lived. On the left was a narrow side street with rows of wooden houses built on the other side. It was obvious that orcs lived in the houses.
Ye Luoxing now understood why they arranged her to live here, next to the patrol team. This place could be said to be the safest place in the outer city.
Ye Luoxing withdrew his gaze, returned to the wooden house, closed the door, washed up by the window, and prepared to go to bed.
She reviewed everything that happened today in her mind and slowly fell asleep...
Early the next morning, just as Ye Luoxing finished eating the canned meat, Tabor came with more food.
He walked into the wooden house holding a piece of animal skin food and said, "Female Luo Xing, the orcs from the south brought some sweet and sour red fruits. The females in the inner city like to eat them very much. I brought some for you. Try it and see if you like it."
Ye Luoxing, who was sitting at the stone table, had just finished cleaning up the canned food. She turned around and saw a pile of food in Tabor's arms. The dozen or so large red fruits in it were particularly eye-catching. She exclaimed, "Strawberries?"
Tabor had walked forward and placed the pile of food on the stone table in front of Ye Luoxing.
He turned to her: "Female Luo Xing, do you know these fruits?"
Ye Luoxing turned his gaze from the food to him: "Well, I guess we know each other..."
Her eyes were still on the strawberries that were half the size of an apple. Two of them were even almost as big as apples. She was shocked and didn't dare to be sure that she recognized this "mutated fruit". In the animal world, everything was really big.
If Yue Shang were a human, his jaw would drop right now: "What a huge strawberry! I feel like it could fill you to death!"
Ye Luoxing: “…”
The Yueshang system is curious and surprised about everything. Ye Luoxing even suspected that he had modified it incorrectly.
Tabor's voice sounded again: "Yes, you are from the South. Then try it quickly. It won't be fresh if it's been stored for too long!"
Ye Luoxing's eyes fell on the strawberries. She remembered that it was spring in the Beast World. Although the north was still covered in ice and snow, the south was the season when flowers were blooming and trees were green. Many fruit trees had already borne fruit. Strawberries were the fruit of the season, and the timing was just right. It seemed that it should be right.
Ye Luoxing picked one up and found it to be correct after testing on the moon, but under Tabor's expectant gaze, she did not try it immediately.
She asked him, "Are these fruits purified?"
Tabor replied: "Well, but don't worry, this is our own food. Many carnivorous animals don't like to eat fruits."
In other words, it was not another female who purified her alone, and Ye Luoxing felt relieved.
She took a bite and tasted it. The juice flowed in her mouth instantly. The sweet and sour taste melted in her mouth. The cold juice slid down her throat into her stomach. Ye Luoxing hadn't tasted this taste for a long time. Her eyes were bright and there was a smile on her face. It was great to be able to eat the fruits of the South. The South was indeed rich in resources. Thinking that it was already spring, she really wanted to see the beautiful nature of the South...
Unfortunately, it will probably take a month or two before we can go, but we should be able to catch the end of spring.
Ye Luoxing quickly finished eating a fruit. She reached behind her back and took out a handful of candy from the space. Then she said to Tabor, "Put out your hand."
Tabor didn't know what she was going to do, but he still stretched out both his hands obediently.
Ye Luoxing took out the candy and put it into Tabor's palm: "This is for you. You share the purified food with me and I will share some with you. These can be eaten directly. You don't need to chew them. Just wait for them to dissolve."
"Luo Xing is a female, you don't need it..." Tabor quickly refused and wanted to return it to her.
But Ye Luoxing reached behind his back and took out a handful of candy, put it into his palm again, and said: "These things are called 'candy', which is sweeter than fruit. Some tribes may not be used to eating them, but there are definitely tribes that like them. You can also give the candy to female beasts who like sweets, or use it to exchange for other things. This thing is rare."
Ye Luoxing knew that there were many magical things in nature, and these candies were just trifles. However, there was nothing delicious in her space that she could exchange for them. Those canned meats and biscuits could only fill their stomachs and were not very tasty, especially for orcs. After much thought, she could only give them the candies that her teammates had placed in her space to try.
"Female Luo Xing..." Tabor seemed a little at a loss.
Ye Luoxing took out a third handful and placed them in his palm: "These are for the female beast that purified my food yesterday. Please pass them on for me."
