At this moment, the warriors in the settlement were also on high alert. One group of beast girl warriors, armed with weapons, came to the Great Frost and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the three divinely gifted people above.
"Ugh!!!"
Da Shuang growled angrily at the beast girl in front of him, "What do you take me for? Have you ever eaten mushroom stewed fish and meat buns in Starsea Town? A bunch of primitives, those things taste much better than your raw meat!"
However, the other party tensed up upon hearing the roar, and the light of the runes on its forehead shone. A fourth-tier magical beast was not weak, but of course, it was not powerful to them either.
"Alright, Da Shuang, go play on the grassland for a while, and go back and call Xin Ke while you're at it."
Su Yuan rubbed the wolf's head, then jumped down with Shishi Tuying. Da Shuang's appetite has become quite picky now; she usually has to take the meat she hunts in the wild back to have it processed.
Although it is a magical wolf, it is also a veteran and guardian beast of the Star Tribe, and it even has its own money bag after the currency reform.
"Awoo!"
Da Shuang ignored them, nuzzled against Su Yuan's body, and immediately left the lakeside settlement while biting the teleportation array.
"Hoo... Welcome to the Tear Lake settlement, distinguished guests."
After seeing Da Shuang leave, the wild beasts nearby dared to slowly get up and continue carrying supplies into the settlement. The girl in front of them gave the three a tribal salute.
Su Yuan led the two of them to retaliate in kind.
"We are a tribe that has just arrived from afar. We are new here and plan to go in and trade some items."
"Are you from afar? I am Qinglei from the Tear Fox Tribe, responsible for the security of this settlement. If needed, I can take you in. You've just arrived, and there are some rules you may not know."
Those who could ride a fourth-tier magical beast giant wolf to this place must be extraordinary, so Qinglei volunteered to be their guide.
Su Yuan glanced at Tu Ying, whose small eyes were still surveying the settlement in front of him. It seemed that he hadn't been here many times before, so he nodded in agreement.
"What payment and transaction methods are used here?"
Qinglei waved her hand, signaling the people behind her to continue patrolling the area. Upon hearing Su Yuan's question, she replied, "Food, saltstone powder, animal hides, and anything else useful will do. However, we will need to hand over some supplies to the guards before entering."
Seemingly worried that Su Yuan and the others might have a bad impression of this, she continued to explain: "This is also the leader's intention. If people can enter freely without paying some supplies, it will become very chaotic inside."
Su Yuan naturally did not deny this behavior. If he were in charge of such a small settlement, he would also set certain thresholds for entry, since the Tear Lake settlement was a very large and magnificent place in the eyes of others.
However, it's not as big as Xinghai Town for him. It's already good that it can accommodate more than a thousand people. If there were no limit on the number of people, it would be a complete mess inside.
However, to Su Yuan's surprise, the leader of the Tear Fox tribe was quite easy to talk to, and even wanted to explain things clearly.
"If you don't want to hand over some supplies, there are other tribes staying nearby. You can go there and see if there are any items you need."
Qinglei pointed to the area near the settlement, where some small tribes or two or three little beast girls were placing their belongings.
However, there's no one to watch over the transactions in the wild, so everyone keeps a close eye on what they're holding, afraid that someone will steal it from them.
"No need, these salts... saltstone powder are for you. Please show us around."
