"Hmm? Can you tell me in detail?" Xuan asked.
"That's called Baicang Beast, a high-level omnivorous beast that eats both meat and grass. It's very smart, probably similar to Shadow Beast, but with a gentle temperament?" When Meng Yuqing said the word "gentle", his tone changed, as if he was doubting the information he had seen.
But after a while, he continued to talk about the information of Baicang Beast, "It has strong combat power, about the same as a fully evolved orc, but this beast is very timid..."
After saying the word "cowardly", he felt like he was talking nonsense. Thinking of the next part, Meng Yuqing just gave up and finished it in one breath.
"Unless necessary, it won't attack orcs, sub-beasts, or wild beasts. And because it's timid, not many people have seen it. It also has a small space in its stomach, just like mine, but not as big, and it can't keep food fresh."
This was the first beast he had seen described as timid and gentle in the "Beast World Continent Information Encyclopedia".
He remembered that the sharp-toothed beasts that the orcs often ate were also described as ferocious, but he had seen living adult sharp-toothed beasts, and compared to other wild beasts, the sharp-toothed beasts were considered to have a better temperament.
This Baicang beast can actually be described as gentle and timid. How cowardly is it? It is obviously very powerful, but it is unexpectedly cowardly... Is it a weird species in the world of wild beasts?
"How on earth... does this beast survive in the wild?" Lie couldn't help but complain.
Maybe just rely on hiding.
"I'll keep an eye on it at all times. You guys don't have to worry about it. Even if it has any bad intentions, Uncle Yang and I can handle it." Xuan said.
After hearing what Xuan said, everyone put the strange beast behind their minds and continued on their way.
In the afternoon, everyone finally reached the grassland. Xia led everyone forward until they reached an extremely open area before stopping. "Let's stop here. There aren't many trees around. Even if the earthquake can reach here, the chances of us getting hurt are much smaller. The earthquake is expected to happen tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Let's be vigilant."
"We don't have to worry about big trees or rocks falling here, but we must be careful with our feet. The ground will crack, so be careful not to fall in." Meng Yuqing once again reminded them of the precautions.
Everyone nodded seriously in agreement.
After deciding on a good place, everyone started to get busy, ignoring the restless atmosphere brought by the orcs, and the afternoon passed quite comfortably.
"Host, don't sleep!" Just when Meng Yuqing was drowsy, the system's voice rang in his head like thunder.
He sat up suddenly and looked at the sky. It was already late. Then he pulled up the system and asked, "What time is it now?"
The system calculates days in the same way as the modern world, that is, the next day starts at 12 o'clock.
The orcs also count days as ending when the sun sets completely.
23:55
The system directly slapped a bright red bold time on Meng Yuqing's face, and at the same time made a five-minute countdown next to it. The scarlet font would flash every second, just like a bomb countdown.
Even though it has come to this, what else is there for Meng Yuqing to not understand? The earthquake will occur at exactly twelve o'clock.
He slapped his face twice to wake himself up. This action attracted the attention of many orcs, and they all became alert.
He climbed onto Xuan's back and shouted, "Don't sleep, it's already the fifth day, and the earthquake will happen tonight!"
After saying this, he whispered in Xuan's ear, "In five minutes."
"All sub-beasts must climb onto the orcs' backs within twenty breaths, and all orcs must cheer up." Xuan gave the order directly.
Xia took Qiu Ye and ran directly to Xuan's side and looked at Meng Yuqing.
"Four more minutes." Meng Yuqing looked at Xia, "Earthquake."
Everyone was on high alert. Meng Yuqing felt that time was passing very slowly, but also very quickly.
He stared at the countdown in front of him, and Qiu Ye tied himself directly to Xia.
Three...Two...One...
The moment when time returns to zero.
Meng Yuqing felt like the whole sky was shaking. It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as the sky collapsing and the earth splitting. It felt like the end of the world.
This is so abnormal!
When the earthquake started, it was so strong that even the orcs were shaken and couldn't stand.
Many orcs lay directly on the ground in an attempt to stabilize their bodies.
The ground cracked open directly, and a crack three meters wide and a hundred meters long appeared. An orc stepped on empty air and almost got stuck in it. The sub-beast on his back screamed in fear. Fortunately, a flying orc rushed down in time and pulled him.
However, there was more than one such crack; the entire ground was like broken glass.
The cracks extended infinitely, and the ground broke into pieces, some of which were raised high, and some of which collapsed directly.
The orcs who found their lives threatened all burst out with amazing potential.
The howls of various wild beasts could be heard, including screams, cries of pain, and desperate wails before death.
All the flying orcs joined the rescue effort, regardless of whether they were carrying anything or not.
"Ah!!! He fell down!!!" A sub-beast lay on the ground and shouted loudly in tears.
Hearing the sound, Xuan jumped directly to the crack where the sub-beast was and picked him up.
At this time, one of the flying orcs also flew over with a free hand and took the sub-beast from Xuan's mouth.
"He fell down, but he threw me out!" On the back of the flying orc, the sub-beast collapsed and cried.
"Host, hold on a little longer, it's almost over!!"
In my ears were the howling of various wild beasts and the shouts of my tribesmen, and in my mind were the anxious prompts of the system.
Meng Yuqing felt that this was really a second better than last year.
Although the system said it was almost over, the vibration did not decrease at all, and fortunately it did not increase.
"It's here! It's time!!" the system screamed frantically in his head.
The next second, all the vibrations stopped abruptly.
"Host, it's over, it's all over! Hurry up and save people, the orc is still alive!" The system kept saying.
