In the sky, flocks of birds passed by the airship one after another, and the sound of flapping wings filled the air. In addition to the dense herds of beasts in front and on the left and right, Ye Luoxing discovered through the screen that many herds of beasts were also flying in the sky behind the airship. This suddenly lively sky was completely different from the depression of the previous few days.
"What's going on? Have we arrived at Beast City?" Ye Luoxing quickly took back the driving control to prevent the beasts from colliding with the airship.
"Beep--" the alarm on the moon stopped.
Qingyun replied: "No, the beasts are heading towards the mountain ahead, and there are still some on the ground."
Ye Luoxing had already gained altitude. When she looked down, she found that there were not only flocks of birds and beasts, but also many herds of land animals in the unfamiliar forest below, rushing quickly in that direction. They were obviously very anxious. Ye Luoxing frowned in confusion.
She shifted her gaze and looked into the distance, noticing a towering, majestic mountain at the other end of the forest. The beasts, now black dots in the distance, had entered that mountain and hadn't emerged since. "Is that where?"
She controlled the airship to keep up with the herd, while lowering the altitude appropriately, trying to collect some information.
Sure enough, she soon heard some sounds coming from the herd -
"There's a competition going on on the mountain ahead. I heard the winner can get purified food!"
"But I heard that Beast City is also hosting the Overlord Tournament this year. Shouldn't the Shimokita tournament be combined with Beast City? How come there's another tournament?"
“…”
"It's a gambling competition! You just bet items and information, and if you win, you can get purified food!"
"News? What news? News is okay?"
"Can I exchange information for purified food?"
“This is simply a godsend!”
“…”
After getting the information he wanted from the waves of beasts, Ye Luoxing murmured softly, "Have we reached Xiabei?"
Was it held by the tribes in Shimokita? Because the Yan Beasts were rampant, they prepared gambling items?
She lowered her head and thought. She had seen some gambling items along the way, and she was actually quite interested in them. The most important thing was...
"If it's a competition, then I can spar with the orcs normally, right?" Ye Luoxing curled his lips, just in time to raise his level.
Yue Shang followed up, "And with so many beasts, maybe we can collect some information."
Ye Luoxing nodded in agreement: "You're right, let's go and join in the fun!"
Ye Luoxing sped up and drove towards the mountain over there. In just a few minutes, he arrived in front of the mountain.
She hovered in the air and observed, and found that there was a big hole in the upper middle part of the mountain. The beasts that came flew in from there. And further up, there were small holes dug around the mountain. Not only did the light in the cave become brighter, but the orcs could also fly directly into the small holes to watch the game below.
"Female beasts and high-level beasts can directly enter the cave above to watch the battle and rest."
At the entrance of each small cave, there are one or two orcs guarding there, explaining the rules to the orcs coming and going. Most orcs do not need them to tell the rules, as they all know what the cave above is used for. It seems to be the tacit rule in the animal world.
Ye Luoxing noticed that a group of tightly wrapped orcs entered one of the small caves. She vaguely caught a glimpse of a female beast among them, and she guessed that they were migrating to the Beast City. In that case, it would not be out of place for her to wrap herself tightly.
Ye Luoxing changed into a black coat, put on a hat, and headed towards a small cave. The caves above were separated by one room, so it was not easy to attract attention. Besides, since he was already there, he might as well do as the local customs do.
While the guards at the cave entrance were distracted, she jumped from the airship into the cave entrance and recovered the Qingyun.
"Hello, may I use this cave?" Her low, mellow and pleasant voice sounded.
The two males in front immediately turned around. They had already smelled the female's scent, but after realizing it was a female with her head buried so tightly that their appearance could not be seen, they politely replied, "Of course, this cave is yours."
They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: This female has a really nice voice and smells so sweet, she must be very beautiful...
Unfortunately, they couldn't see what she looked like. The two beasts looked around curiously, then frowned in confusion.
One of the males asked her, "Female, where is your mate? Did he go down there to compete?"
Another male beast also said: "Why didn't they leave a few people to protect you? Did you come up here alone?"
Ye Luoxing didn't want to cause trouble, so he followed their words and answered: "Well, they are downstairs. I asked them to go down, and I went in first."
She nodded politely to them and walked into the cave.
The two male beasts were stunned by her politeness, and then they exchanged a complicated look. They looked at her back, puzzled, because she didn't smell like her mate...
They didn't ask any more questions, but simply retreated, leaving behind a sentence: "Female, then we will guard outside for you. We will bring you food later. You can stay as long as you want."
When Ye Luoxing turned around, she found that two male beasts flew out of the cave and closed the stone door at the entrance for her. The cave with stone walls on three sides became dim. The stone door was closed, which meant that there was someone in the cave. There was no need to worry about any strange beastmen suddenly breaking in and disturbing her.
Ye Luoxing looked around. The cave was about 60 square meters. Apart from the walls on three sides, there was a large hollow hole opposite. Inside the cave were her and a few stone chairs, separated by a short stone wall. Surrounding the large hole were other caves that were on the same level as her small cave. It looked a bit like a "private room" in primitive society.
There were no orcs in many of the small caves yet, so beams of light shone through the entrances and exits.
Ye Luoxing walked to a stone chair in the front row and sat down. She looked down at the large hollow cave. There was a huge competition field underneath, which was connected to the largest cave entrance under her feet. Unlike the quietness above, the cave below was already crowded with orcs, and there were already orcs competing on the field.
"Is this a - table?" Yue Shang asked in confusion, and Ye Luoxing looked to the left.
There are only two irregular stone chairs in the front row, and between the two stone chairs there is a square stone, which is higher than the highest point of the stone chair handles. This arrangement makes it look like a table for placing things.
Ye Luoxing reached out and touched it, then tilted his head to examine it. "You know what, it really does look like it. The closer we get to Beast City, the more I feel like this primitive world isn't particularly primitive..."
At least they can make chairs; they can make tables, and they can repair houses.
Along the way, she saw very simple wooden and stone houses. Although they were rare, she was sure that they were houses.
Ye Luoxing leaned back in her chair, watching the game below. She murmured, "The way the beasts dig holes is pretty much the same, and they can even use holes as a unit of measurement."
Ye Luoxing will never forget that when the Yan Beast Group traded with the group of mysterious orcs, the condition they put forward was "herbs that can fill half of an ordinary cave", and the competition venue of the Yan Beast Group was very similar to this one.
Ye Luoxing stared at the field below, and suddenly his eyes became deep...
