Chapter 25: Mo Mu
"Snake orc?" Fu Ying was a little surprised.
A one-star snake beastman, who should not even be an adult yet, actually dared to venture into the edge of the hunting area?
“Hiss—hiss—”
The green python twisted wildly, its body like a flexible green ribbon, stirring up dust around it.
It tried its best, and the ochre power around its body surged, and the ground soil surged along with it. Pieces of soil wrapped in green grass quickly gathered around its side, and in the blink of an eye, a layer of earth wall was built.
She desperately sought a glimmer of hope, but unfortunately, it was in vain in front of the four-star beast.
The eagle's eyes were cold and sharp, its sharp claws were deeply embedded in the python's body, and every feather stood up slightly with excitement. It vibrated its wings, wanting to fly up with the python and leave the rock wall to enjoy the meal.
The python's eyes were dull and there were even crystal tears sliding down its scales.
Fu Ying tilted his head and looked at the crying snake curiously.
She raised her finger lightly, drawing a sharp arc in the air. In an instant, the water vapor around Fu Ying seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, rapidly gathering and condensing, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a sharp water arrow.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sharp "whoosh" sound, and the water arrow tore through the air and shot towards the falcon!
The falcon seemed to have sensed a huge crisis. It cried out and loosened its claws, and the giant green python rolled to the ground, revealing its snow-white belly. It was not known whether it was frightened by Fu Ying or was stunned by the fall.
The falcon stared at Fu Ying with its sharp eyes, and after a moment, it spread its wings and flew away.
The beasts with four-star patterns already have a certain level of intelligence. Once they sense danger, they will naturally not engage in a head-on confrontation.
Fu Ying turned to look at the python, which was lying on its back. He walked towards it and kicked it. "Dead?"
The next moment, the python's body changed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its bones made a "cracking" sound, and its originally winding and slender body gradually stretched and extended. Its scales quickly faded away, and it turned into an orc.
"Female?" Fu Ying was even more surprised. There was Green Mountain in front of her, and a female snake behind her. Haha, what luck. Others who traveled through time and space to save handsome men, why were all the ones she saved female?
Fu Ying curled his lips and looked down at the female who had transformed into an orc. Her body was covered with bloody holes scratched by eagle claws. She struggled to get up, but fell back in pain. She immediately started to sob, "I'm going to die. I will never see my father, mother and brother again—"
Fu Ying narrowed her eyes and asked, "What are you doing in the hunting area, a female?"
Hearing Fu Ying's voice, Mo Mu turned over and grimaced in pain.
Fu Ying then discovered that this female snake was actually a pretty little beauty, with slender eyes, a small nose, and constantly trembling lips. She looked pitiful, yet a little familiar.
Mo Mu stared at Fu Ying with tearful eyes. After a long pause, he managed to utter, "You're so ugly! Are you a female from the Banshan tribe? How are you so powerful? How could you defeat a beast with four-star markings?"
Fu Ying's mouth twitched, and he wanted to slap them both.
However, looking at the injuries on Mo Mu's body, he still held back, fearing that he would slap him to death. After all, he had rescued him with his own hands, and he hadn't received any benefits yet. Wouldn't it be a loss-making deal to send him away?
Haha, children speak without restraint. They are just children, who would care about children?
Fu Ying didn't answer her and asked, "Are you a female from the Cangshan tribe?"
Mo Mu nodded and said, "My name is Mo Mu! I am the child of Mo Shan, the leader of the Cangshan tribe, and Lan!"
Although she was grimacing in pain, she looked proud when introducing herself.
Fu Ying looked at Mo Mu for a moment and finally understood why this annoying girl looked so familiar. Wasn't this the female version of Mo Yan, Mo Mu? So she was Mo Yan's biological sister, from the same father and mother?
A brother and a sister, a red snake and a green snake, how were they born from the same parents?
Fu Ying looked suspicious and had deep doubts about the reproductive issues in the Orc Continent.
"You, a female, what are you doing here at the edge of the hunting area?" Fu Ying half-knelt down and applied some medicinal powder to Mo Mu. Since she was Mo Yan's sister, she was also Teng's sister, so he naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.
"I..." Mo Mu was still a little wary at first, but as she smelled the medicine, she gradually relaxed. The look in her eyes when she looked at Fu Ying also became more dependent. Her nose twitched and her eyes turned red again.
"I'm here to find Prince Xingkong!" she said hesitantly, looking a little lonely.
“???” Fu Ying was speechless and didn’t understand.
However, she did not ask any more questions. She pulled Mo Mu up and pointed to the road to the hunting area: "Okay, little brat, go back. Remember to tell your parents that I saved you."
After saying that, Fu Ying planned to go down the cliff to take a look. Just after taking two steps, Mo Mu hugged her waist and she cried at the top of her lungs, "No! I don't want to leave. I won't leave until I see Brother Xingkong!"
"Oh, then you die." Fu Ying nodded, did not stop, pushed Mo Mu away, stood on the edge of the cliff and stretched his waist, and the next moment, he jumped down lightly.
Mo Mu stood at the edge of the cliff, staring blankly at Fu Ying who was leaping down in human form.
She gritted her teeth, afraid that the hawk would come back, so she transformed into a beast again, winding down the rock wall, following behind Fu Ying, watching her grab the vines on the cliff wall, swinging and swiping, her posture was very agile and beautiful.
Fu Ying's eyes lit up as he looked at the Ganoderma lucidum herbs growing on the rock wall.
This place is truly a treasure trove!
"What are you picking this for?" Mo Mu followed closely behind, watching Fu Ying picking the fruits, a little confused.
The female only collects edible wild fruits. She has never seen these before. Can they be eaten?
Fu Ying glanced at her and said lazily, "These are medicines that can save Teng."
After he finished speaking, Fu Ying keenly noticed a complex expression on Mo Mu's snake face. She stared at Fu Ying for a while before whispering, "The female who disrupted the totem ceremony last night was you, right?"
"You weren't here yesterday?" Fu Ying looked at Mo Mu suspiciously. Doesn't everyone have to be present for the totem sacrifice?
Mo Mu was a little depressed: "I hid in the cave and didn't come out. I didn't want to see Prince Teng..."
Hearing this, Fu Ying paused and was a little surprised. After all, Teng was now in a position where everyone was pushing him down. No one in the Cangshan tribe could stand him. He didn't expect that there were still people who couldn't bear to part with him?
"The Teng Star Pattern is broken, and he is about to die. It is a good thing to pray for forgiveness from the Beast God through totem sacrifice. Why don't you want to watch him die?" Fu Ying's hands moved quickly, but he asked indifferently.
This Mo Mu looks silly and doesn't seem like he and Mo Yan have the same parents, but who knows if he's just pretending?
Although the Orc Continent still retains its most primitive appearance, the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas are purely natural, and the tribal buildings are simple and crude, everything seems to be still in the early stages of ignorance, but these are just appearances.
The orcs here all possess mysterious and powerful special powers. These powers not only give them physical strength far beyond that of ordinary people, but also greatly develop their wisdom.
Camouflage is the orcs' innate hunting instinct.
