Chapter 18 Wait for me at home
Shi Yuan tried to stop him, saying, "You might lose your life if you do this."
Niu Zhuang is a very special existence in the tribe because his beast form awakened and he became a bull.
He said firmly: "What's the difference between me being alive now and being dead? Being able to help you is my ultimate value."
For the beast warriors, they would rather die in the hunting grounds than live a life of waiting to die, not to mention that they cannot even guarantee food.
Shi Yuan thought for a moment, then nodded, indicating that he agreed to let Niu Zhuang join.
Seeing that Shi Yuan agreed to Niu Zhuang's request, many disabled orcs who were in the same situation as Niu Zhuang also stood up and expressed their willingness to contribute their last strength to the tribe.
Shi Yuan carefully selected several orcs who still had certain combat capabilities, while the other orcs were arranged to stay in the tribe to assist the priests in building the altar.
Chu Ange looked at his father's team, which was full of old, weak, sick and disabled people, and couldn't help feeling worried.
"Dad, I'll go with you." Chu Ange said.
She possesses the ability to heal mentally, and can provide timely treatment to injured soldiers at critical moments, greatly reducing the casualty rate.
However, before Shi Yuan could respond, Long Chen grabbed her.
"Be good and wait for me to come back at home." Long Chen instructed gently.
Chu Ange retorted anxiously: "You don't understand the situation. It would be of great help if I go with you."
Long Chen smiled slightly and said lightly: "Yeah. Don't worry, they will be safe with me here." His tone revealed a firmness and confidence.
Chu Ange looked at him doubtfully, not completely believing his promise.
At this moment, a sneer of contempt was suddenly heard.
Langli sneered with disdain: "You are so arrogant, but don't let yourself be unable to return by then."
Chu Ange was already worried about their safety, and when he heard Lang Li's curse-like words, he immediately became furious.
She pointed at Langli's nose angrily and cursed: "Shut your stinky mouth! Did you just go out to eat shit? Your mouth stinks so much."
Since Langli became the clan leader, he had never been humiliated like this before, and he pretended to teach Chu Ange a lesson.
But he felt a wooden stick poking him at the waist on his back, poking him faster and harder. Although it didn't hurt, it was hard to ignore.
"Who is it?" Langli finally couldn't bear it anymore. He turned around with a glare and found that it was the priest who was poking him with his crutch.
The priest pointed to the sky and said, "Did you see the dragon just now?"
Lang Li said unhappily, “I saw it.”
The priest grinned and said, "I summoned it." He looked very proud.
Wolf power, on the other hand, feels as bad as eating a fly that just ate shit.
He could never have imagined that his previous contempt and disdain for the priest would now turn into a loud slap in his face.
However, the priest did not give him a chance to speak. After boasting, he turned around and began to bless the hunting team: "May you be able to capture a lot of prey. The great Dragon God will bless you to return safely."
Then, the priest said to Shiyuan's group of old, weak and disabled soldiers: "The Dragon God will also protect you and bring you back safely."
It doesn’t matter whether you hunt or not, as long as you come back alive.
This was the first time they witnessed the Dragon God's response with their own eyes. Everyone was eager to do their best to contribute their strength to the Dragon God, hoping that the Dragon God would see their efforts and bestow blessings on them.
Long Chen stared at the priest and said calmly: "You might as well be bolder."
The priest looked confused? ? ?
Long Chen continued: "The Dragon God will not only bless them to capture more prey than the hunting team, but will also ensure that they all return safely."
The priest...thought secretly in his heart, feeling that Long Chen's words were a little strange. Why did he use "they" instead of "us"? Could it be that he is not part of this team?
The old and weak soldiers who heard this said: "..." Aren’t your expectations of us a bit too high?
Langli laughed loudly: "Are these cripples expecting to hunt more than the hunting team?"
The priest did not give Langli a chance to continue speaking. When Langli laughed, he raised the scepter in his hand and shouted, "Hunting team, set off!"
The priest summoned the Dragon God, and his words were like an imperial decree, and the hunting team set off together.
Langli was stunned for a moment and wanted to scold the priest for interfering in his duties, but the priest had already turned around and went back to the cave. He wanted to scold the hunting team for not waiting for his order but obeying the priest, but the hunting team had already gone far away.
In the end, he had no choice but to chase the hunting team.
He could miss other activities, but as the clan leader, he must not miss the hunting before the Dragon God Festival.
Otherwise, his prestige among the soldiers would be greatly reduced.
Shi Yuan and his companions walked very far, but they didn't even see the shadow of any prey along the way!
Finally, someone in the crowd couldn't hold back his doubts and blurted out, "Why didn't we see any prey?"
Yes, even if you can’t find large prey on weekdays, you can at least come across a few flying birds or small animals like wild rabbits.
But what about now? They had been walking for so long and hadn't seen even a bird or a rabbit.
Among this group of people, Shiyuan is undoubtedly the one with the most hunting experience.
At this moment, he frowned tightly. With the rich experience accumulated over the years, he was keenly aware that there was only one possibility behind this abnormal situation - there must be an extremely ferocious beast active nearby.
Because of this, the weak animals hide themselves, fearing that they will become the meal of this "giant beast".
However, this "ferocious beast" did not seem to realize the deterrent effect it had on the team. It pointed to a deep mountain in front and said, "Let's go there!"
Shi Yuan looked in the direction of Long Chen's finger, shook his head and said worriedly, "There are many ferocious beasts hiding there. It may be difficult for us to capture them with our strength. Moreover, we might all die there!"
However, Long Chen had made up his mind and said firmly: "I am going there to hunt!"
Shi Yuan lowered his voice and said to Long Chen: "Thank you for being willing to hunt for our tribe, but you are not a member of our tribe after all, so there is really no need to take such a risk."
In fact, Shi Yuan admired Long Chen very much in his heart and was very satisfied with his future son-in-law, so he really couldn't bear to see him risking his life to hunt in that dangerous place.
If Long Chen unfortunately died in it, how would he explain to Ange?
Unexpectedly, Long Chen replied with an innocent look: "Who said I did this for your tribe?"
Shi Yuan was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Then why are you doing this?"
Long Chen explained seriously, "Because tomorrow is Ange and I's wedding, I just don't want it to be too shabby."
Hearing this, Shi Yuan was completely speechless...! !
