Chapter 78: The hero?
The closer you are to the sea, the colder the weather.
It has been raining for a week and the salt-changing team has been traveling almost non-stop.
Each of them was covered with thick animal skins, carrying heavy bags, and walking on the muddy road with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Chu Ange was held in Long Chen's arms. Although Long Chen tried his best to protect her from the wind and rain, she was still shivering with cold.
"What's wrong with the weather? It keeps raining non-stop." Chu Ange complained tremblingly.
Long Chen looked at the woman in his arms with heartache. He covered her with all the animal skins he could find, but they still couldn't protect her from the cold weather.
Chu Ange secretly groaned in her heart. She originally thought that she had made adequate preparations, but she didn't expect that the weather would become so cold when she was only halfway through the journey.
If she didn't find a way to keep warm, she would most likely freeze to death on the road. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder.
Just then, the sky finally cleared up. The rain gradually stopped and the sun shone through the clouds, casting warm rays of light.
Long Chen saw a place suitable for camping ahead, so he pointed there and said to Lang Lin, "Let's camp here and rest for a while. Everyone can eat something to replenish their energy." Lang Lin nodded and led everyone to that place to start camping.
Long Chen gently held Chu Ange in his arms and walked steadily in a specific direction.
Before long, a clear, sparkling river appeared before our eyes.
He gently put Chu Ange down, carefully arranged the animal skin on her body, and said with concern: "Wait here for a while, I will pick up some firewood and boil some hot water for you so that you can take a comfortable bath."
Although they had been walking in the rain for a whole week, fortunately, Chu Ange had not yet shown any symptoms of a cold.
However, since she does not have a beast form, her ability to resist cold is naturally not comparable to that of a real orc. Along the way, Long Chen always took good care of her, fearing that his little female would suffer the slightest discomfort.
Chu Ange nodded slightly to show his agreement, and said softly: "I will wait for you here obediently."
Long Chen stroked her head lovingly, then turned around to collect firewood.
In fact, he didn't go far, he was just within her sight.
After a week of rain, the remaining aura he had on Ange had almost disappeared. Therefore, he didn't dare let Ange out of his sight.
Chu Ange stood there obediently waiting. She knew very well that in this unfamiliar environment, there was a huge gap between herself and the orcs. So, she decided not to cause trouble to Long Chen and tried her best to avoid any chaos.
"thump!"
There was a noise on the river.
Chu Ange turned his head and saw a fat fish jumping out of the water.
In such a cold day, after getting caught in the rain and taking a bath, wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a bowl of hot and delicious fish soup?
There was a gleam in her eyes as she looked at the river, as if all the creatures in the river were already her prey.
Guessing that Long Chen would soon be back, she took two steps toward the river, checked the depth of the water in advance, and thought about how to catch fish.
Little did she know that danger was approaching her.
A huge crocodile head gradually emerged from the water.
Its cat-like bright pupils flickered with a strange light, as if it had discovered a rare treasure it had never seen before.
"What a beautiful, sweet little female."
"Who is talking?" Chu Ange looked around but didn't see anyone.
"A lone little female..." His voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement: "If I find her, she's mine."
The crocodile's head floated out of the water and looked at Chu Ange greedily.
The crocodile is so big that it cannot be contained in ten pots.
Chu Ange was frightened by the sudden appearance of the crocodile and stepped back repeatedly: "Long Chen."
The crocodile laughed foolishly: "Cute and sweet little female, why are you here alone?"
Without waiting for Chu Ange to answer, he continued, "Can I support you in the future? As you can see, I am very powerful."
"This river is all mine, and I can keep you well fed."
It turned out to be an orc in the form of a crocodile, but the beast was a little too big.
Chu Ange waved his hand: "Thank you for the invitation. I don't like cold-blooded animals. Besides, I already have a male."
Crocodile was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "You are so cute when you lie."
There are very few females in the beast world. Some male beastmen may never see a female in their entire lives, let alone possess one.
Once you have a female, you hold her in your hands for fear of dropping her, hold her in your mouth for fear of her melting, and wish you could put her in your eyes and watch her all the time.
If she really had a husband, why would he leave her here alone?
How could he bear to let go of such a delicate and beautiful little female?
"My name is Crocodile Meng, what's your name, little female?"
Nightmare? Chu Ange looked up at him. She was not even as tall as his calves in beast form. It was indeed quite a nightmare.
Male beastmen like to show off their beast forms in front of females. The bigger the beast form, the more powerful the man is.
Chu Ange pointed behind Crocodile Meng and said, "Why don't you look back? My male is behind you."
Crocodile Meng laughed even more happily. There was no one behind him. The little female was referring to him: "Thank you for treating me as your male. I will love you well."
He couldn't wait to hold the little female in his arms. The soft and sweet little female must be very comfortable to hold in his arms. He hadn't touched the little female's hand yet.
It’s exciting just thinking about it.
Chu Ange rolled his eyes: Mr. Dian, you are asking for trouble, there is no way to save you.
A powerful pressure suddenly came from behind, as if to crush the person.
Crocodile Meng's whole body shook violently, and his huge body seemed to suddenly lose strength and began to tremble. His eyes were wide open, filled with fear and despair.
At this time, Crocodile Meng was like a fish out of water, struggling desperately to breathe but unable to get enough oxygen. Fear enveloped his heart, making him feel suffocated.
He turned his head with difficulty, trying to find the source of his fear.
When his eyes fell behind him, he saw a horrifying scene - a huge python was standing silently behind him.
The snake was so big that it could wrap around both of them.
The python was huge in size, covered with thick scales that shone with a cold light. Its head is huge and ferocious, and its sharp eyes reveal a deadly threat.
If Long Chen's eyes had not been so cold, looking at him as if he were a dead person, he would really kneel down and worship him.
He had never seen such a big snake.
Even the real body of the dragon god worshipped by their tribe is not this big.
"Warrior, everything should be based on first come first served. I met this little female first." Although Long Chen's pressure made him feel extremely frightened, when it came to the competition for females, Crocodile Meng did not give in at all.
If you encounter an ownerless female in the wild, whoever picks her up first owns her.
