Chapter 12 Manla is dead
A stray animal sneaked into the tribe and almost hurt a precious female. The incident was so serious that it directly alarmed the patriarch and the elders of the tribe. They brought all the relevant people to the tribal square and interrogated them one by one.
The presence of the third elder, Am, as a witness was sufficient to ensure fairness and impartiality, and to ensure that no one dared to lie.
"Just now, this man was about to assassinate that stray beast, but I saw him and stopped him. I think it didn't delay your business, did it?"
A brown-haired orc dragged the stray snake beast and strode onto the square. He glanced around and his eyes fell on Sang Luo's face.
He curled his lips and smiled at her lightly.
Sang Luo immediately lowered her head and looked away. Why was it him?
Anu paused, looked away with some boredom, and looked at the old patriarch, "I brought the person here."
The alligator snapping turtle orc was knocked to his knees by his kick.
"Isn't this Manla's partner, Doron?"
"Booker, why did you bring him here?" someone asked.
In the crowd, a flash of panic flashed across Manla's face. She cursed inwardly, "What a waste! She can't even do such a small thing, and she was caught! What if they dragged her into this?"
Duolun was no fool, and he quickly argued, "My partner almost died at the hands of a stray beast. I was so angry that I lost control and wanted to kill the damn stray beast!"
"I understand your feelings, but a stray beast sneaked into the tribe for no reason and almost endangered the females in the tribe. It must be more complicated than that. Killing him directly like this would be too easy for him."
"Perhaps there's a traitor in our tribe who deliberately let the stray beasts in. If you kill him, it would be like destroying the evidence and letting the mastermind go unpunished!"
"I, I didn't think so much at the time..." Duolun also regretted it very much.
Anu chuckled and kicked the snake beast that was unconscious on the ground. "Did you hear me? Stop pretending. I'm going to kill you."
The half-dead snake beast suddenly jumped up. Kemu and Pamir rushed forward to restrain it. The snake beast spat on the ground unwillingly and glared in one direction fiercely, "You two treacherous bitches! You promised to give me the beast crystals after you get the job done, but you dared to turn against me and even tried to kill me to silence me!"
Manla swallowed and took a step back, wanting the stray beast to shut up.
Anu glanced at her and asked the stray beast with interest, "Who are those two people?"
"If you tell the truth, maybe someone will die for you. If you don't tell the truth, harming the females of the tribe is a heinous crime, and only death awaits you."
Stray Beast accused Manla without hesitation, "It's her! She said her mate is on patrol today, and she can sneak me into the tribe, let me hide in that water, and take the opportunity to kill a female!"
"Is the female you want to kill her?" Anu pointed at Sang Luo.
The wandering beast's face was filled with greed and infatuation. "Yes, that's her! She's the most beautiful little female I've ever seen! I can't bear to kill her. I want to imprison her in my cave and enjoy her with my brothers! Let her lay a nest of snake eggs for us!"
Sang Luo glared angrily, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit.
The old witch doctor slapped Manla hard, "You—you really bring shame to the family!"
She said to the chief, "Please follow the rules of the tribe and don't forgive her for my sake!"
Everyone knew it clearly in their hearts. After all, Manla was a young female with excellent fertility in the Cordo tribe. Driving her out would be a great loss to the tribe. Several strong men in the tribe were by her side. She was also the daughter of the witch doctor. What she did this time was indeed excessive, but fortunately there were no female casualties. The slap in the face by the old witch doctor was nothing more than a way for his daughter to save face. In the end, it was nothing more than making a big deal out of a small matter, giving a severe punishment and a minor warning, and putting the matter behind him.
As soon as Sang Luo left the square, the brown-haired orc came up and started talking to him.
"Little female from that night, do you still remember me?"
Sang Luo turned her head and found that he was Booker. He had clearly told her that his name was Anu.
This guy was quite enthusiastic towards her, probably really liked her, but Sang Luo was not interested in this sunny and cheerful athlete, so she turned around and walked forward.
"Don't you like me? I'm a fifth-level orc, and I'll be promoted to a sixth-level orc soon. Maybe I can even become the future chief of the Koldo tribe!" He stopped in front of her again and tried his best to sell himself.
Sang Luodiao turned around and continued to treat him as air. Three words were written all over his body - not interested.
Anu didn't move forward. He lowered his eyes, looking a little aggrieved and sad. "You don't like me like this? Then what kind do you like? Someone like Lan Cang? Haha, he's really good-looking. I like him too."
What is this person talking about?
Sang Luo finally stopped and stared at him with a puzzled look on his face. Could this man be a gay?
There are too many people and too little food, and this situation does sometimes happen. I heard that some people are jealous of females and deliberately cause trouble for them.
Damn, she doesn’t want a male rival to appear just after the female one left.
Sang Luo was really scared, and ran back home quickly as if escaping.
"Heh, this little thing is quite interesting. Is this skin really that scary?"
Anu didn't look away until the female figure completely disappeared from his sight, stroking his chin and muttering to himself. It wasn't until an orc came over, put his arm around his shoulders, and asked him to go out and play together that he smiled and nodded, then left the square.
In the evening, the punishment for Manla and her partner came out.
Duolun was stripped of his mate status, flogged fifty times, and thrown out of the tribe, severely wounded and half-dead, to become a stray beast. Although it wasn't a direct death sentence, it was almost a death sentence. In the middle of the night, he would become a meal for stray beasts and star beasts.
Manla was locked up in a solitary confinement room for three months to reflect on his actions. No one was allowed to visit him, and his status as a witch doctor's disciple was stripped away. If he did it again, he would be expelled from the tribe.
This punishment is indeed a bit too light. After all, Manla is the daughter of a witch doctor. Even if she is locked up in a confinement room, her life will not be very difficult. It simply serves as a warning to the outside world.
Although Sang Luo had anticipated that the punishment would not be severe, he still frowned and made up his mind to leave the Kordo tribe with Lan Cang as soon as possible.
Otherwise, once Manla comes out, he will definitely not give up.
…
…
Solitary confinement room.
Manla was locked up in this dark stone house, furious. She was just a female from another race? She could die, so why were they treating her like this?!
When she comes out, just wait for that bitch, she will never let her leave the Koldo tribe alive!
Manla was so angry that she didn't notice another tall figure quietly appeared in the room. Suddenly, she felt a chill in her abdomen. She looked down in shock. A sharp claw pierced her entire abdomen, and blood gushed out.
He fell to the ground and stopped breathing.
The Ruble Forest was full of dangers at night. Countless scarlet beast eyes were hidden in the dark, staring at the man coming over with a fierce look. Lan Cang threw the corpse into the forest without hesitation and wiped the blood off his hands with disgust.
In an instant, countless black shadows pounced on him, biting him madly...
