The force was not great, but it made Meng Yuqing gradually lose his grip on the bulge on the tree trunk. He opened his eyes and subconsciously struggled, with all his limbs entangled in the vines.
"Can you let go of the vines? I can't pick you up and carry you down like this."
A clear and vigorous voice came to my ears. It sounded young. There was someone there!
Meng Yuqing's eyes lit up, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, but happened to meet the eyes of the black panther who was approaching.
Meng Yuqing's hands trembled, and he almost lost his grip on the vine and fell down. Seeing this, the black panther stretched out one of its front paws to place under his feet. With the help of the force from his feet, he stabilized his body and looked at the black panther in surprise.
"Hey! Are you listening to me?"
As the black panther's mouth opened and closed, the sound I had just heard rang in my ears. Meng Yuqing's lips moved.
“…It’s a monster…”
"Monster? What is it?" The black panther tilted his head, his dark green eyes revealing a hint of doubt.
Miraculously, Meng Yuqing understood Black Panther's expression.
However, because the black panther could speak and communicate, he felt relieved and no longer felt the fear he had just felt.
Compared to a beast that has no reason and relies only on instinct to hunt, at least there is still room for struggle... right?
Before he could figure out how to communicate with the black panther, the black panther's voice came to his ears again.
"Can you let go of the vines so I can take you down? The tree at this height is too dangerous for you." Seeing that he didn't respond, the black panther shook its front paws under his feet.
Meng Yuqing came back to his senses, pursed his lips, made up his mind, nodded vigorously, and looked at Black Panther. No matter what, he had to go down first.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
With his permission, Black Panther nudged his body with his nose, making him turn around. Then he felt his collar being pulled up from behind.
A low growl came from the black panther's throat behind him, signaling him to let go. Meng Yuqing made up his mind and let go of the vines completely.
The sound of wind whistling came from my ears, and my body was in the air, swaying up and down as the black panther climbed down the tree.
The black panther came down from the tree very quickly. When it reached the ground, it put him down. When its feet stepped on the ground, Meng Yuqing was about to cry.
"Which tribe's sub-beast are you from? Why are you alone in the forest? Where are the orcs from your tribe?"
Three questions in a row, Meng Yuqing was completely bewildered. What tribe, what orcs, what sub-orcs, what are all these? Will orcs never be enslaved?
Seeing that he didn't speak again, the black panther leaned forward. Meng Yuqing quickly took a step back. Although he could communicate, he still couldn't get used to such a big black panther talking so close to him.
"I don't have a tribe, and I don't know why I'm alone in the forest."
Meng Yuqing glanced at the black panther, which was sitting upright in front of him, with its long and thick tail resting on the ground and the tip of its tail swaying slightly. Judging from his experience of raising cats online, the black panther seemed to be in a good mood.
He looked carefully at the black panther in front of him. It was completely black without a trace of other colors. Unlike the black panthers he had seen before, when he looked closely, he could inevitably see different shades of color and black spots.
This black panther was extremely huge, four meters tall even when sitting. Its fur was a seamless black layer, like the finest black satin. The sunlight scattered on it, as if giving the giant beast in front of it a layer of golden light.
The eyes were a dark green color, occasionally flashing a faint light. When being stared at by these eyes, one felt as if being locked, making one's hair stand on end and feel fear.
At this time, because of the sunlight, its eyes were slightly narrowed, and with the tip of its tail swinging, it looked like a harmless big black cat.
But Meng Yuqing knew that the black panther was not an ordinary big cat, and he did not dare to treat it as an ordinary big cat.
The nails hidden in the pads that gleamed with cold light, the strong muscles under the fur, and the fangs that occasionally showed when speaking all declared the powerful fighting ability of this black panther.
"No tribe?" Black Panther's voice sounded a little surprised, and then he didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes suddenly became pity when he looked at Meng Yuqing.
"My name is Xuan. What's yours?" Xuan lowered his head, as if afraid of scaring him, and even his voice became much gentler.
"My name is Meng Yuqing." I don't understand why Black Panther suddenly showed this expression, but this is a good thing for Meng Yuqing.
If he could get the protection of the black panther in this forest, his life safety would be greatly guaranteed.
"A three-syllable name? A bit strange, but are you willing to go to my tribe?" Xuan looked at Meng Yuqing seriously.
"Our tribe is very good. The orcs are very strong. There are not many sub-beasts. Each one is very friendly and they are also very good at gathering. If you go to our tribe, you can join the gathering team and gather with the sub-beasts. We are all your people. You can have a new tribe and a new home."
When talking about his tribe, Xuan's voice rose slightly and the tip of his tail swung more happily. He liked his tribe very much and was very proud of it.
Meng Yuqing was confused, but it did not prevent him from feeling the kindness Xuan showed him.
But, orcs? And orc tribes? Orcs themselves knew what they were, but what were sub-beasts? From what Xuan said, it seemed like he was classifying himself as a sub-beast.
But he didn't dare to ask Xuan rashly. What if he was burned to death as an alien? The word "tribe" sounded primitive.
"Can I... go and take a look first? I don't have a tribe..."
He deliberately lowered his head without finishing his words so as not to let Xuan see his expression.
Thinking about the expression of pity Xuan showed when he heard that he had no tribe, and even the tone of his voice changed, he might have thought that something bad had happened to him.
