Chapter 3
Well, I can't be too sure. The area where the tribe is located is a plain, and you can see the tribe as soon as you leave the woods.
From a distance, the two men saw dozens of huge beasts being carried into the tribe by huge, silver-white snow wolves, and then they faintly heard cheers.
"The hunting team has returned," Xiaochu said, "The largest monster must have been killed by Brother Qi."
"Disturbed in the wind of the year, do you call a mountain of flesh like this prey? Is it as big as a full-grown snow wolf?"
So far, he has only seen Xiaochu and his own beast form, and it feels like the two of them combined are not as big as one of the other person's claws.
If Xiaochu and I grow up in the future, how much food will we need to eat at each meal?
He looked down at the pheasant in his hand and suddenly felt that the pheasant in his hand, which was three times bigger than any chicken he had eaten before, was insignificant.
No wonder there are such animals in this forest. It turns out that these are animals that the Snow Wolf Clan simply disdains to hunt. They dare to wander around because they know they are safe, but they didn't expect to run into him.
He recalled the story in the book about the Snow Wolf Clan transforming into human form to save food during winter when prey was scarce. Indeed, if they ate in animal form, his pheasant wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth. Oh, it was probably even smaller than their teeth.
Yu Sui finally met the protagonist. He had short silver hair, a fierce face, and was also wrapped in a piece of animal skin. He looked to be about two meters tall. Standing there, he was an imposing presence. He was indeed the Blood Wolf Clan's top warrior.
He was a little confused about the original owner. How much must she like the protagonist? Wouldn't her neck feel sore from looking up at him like this every day?
Qi had good eyesight and saw him early on. Although Yu Sui didn't stick around with him today and even brought his younger brother, whom he never liked, he didn't want to provoke him.
So he just glanced at Yu Sui indifferently and turned around to continue dividing the prey with his tribesmen.
The claws of the Snow Wolf Clan were extremely sharp. Several members of the Snow Wolf Clan turned their hands into sharp claws and quickly cut up their prey. Their sharp claws removed the entire fur of the prey and then divided it into countless pieces of meat.
No wonder there's no knife at home. What else would you need? These claws are much more useful than kitchen knives. Seeing the sharp white claws flying over the prey, a large piece of meat fell off with a single swipe. Yu Sui secretly stretched out his hand and quietly revealed a claw. It seemed to be quite sharp too. He decided to try it out when he got home.
"Qi, today's harvest is good. You are worthy of being the strongest among us. You even hunted the Thunder Tiger Beast. This guy is very powerful. I also wanted to fight one at the beginning, but I almost singed my butt hair. It has the dual magic of thunder and fire and is a fifth-level monster. Although its meat is delicious, ordinary orcs can't afford to offend it." Several orcs came over from the other side of the tribe. One of the bronze-haired handsome guys patted Qi on the shoulder and said with a smile.
These are also members of the hunting team, which also has the task of patrolling around the tribe, and basically rotates every three days.
"Haha, every time it opens, we have a treat!" Several other orcs also said with a smile.
The orcs from the tribe came over one after another to divide the meat, and the people from the hunting team greeted them one by one. Seeing that Qi didn't want to pay much attention to Yu Sui, the people from the hunting team also remained silent.
Only the orc who had spoken to Qi first touched his ears, but couldn't help but walked forward and said to Sui, "Come over and divide the meat. You're not here every time we come back, so you're here just in time this time, so we don't have to give it to you. You can even pick out the part you like!"
Yu Sui was a little flattered. The orc who was talking to him seemed to be Xu, Qi's childhood sweetheart. He was indeed a good man. No one else was bothered to pay attention to him, only Xu came to him and asked him to get the meat. No wonder Qi and Xiaochu both fell in love with him in the end. He was indeed sunny and kind.
He remembered that every time the hunting team came back from the tribe, they would notify him to get the meat, but the original owner was very proud and sensitive, and he had lost his parents at a young age, which led to his inferiority complex. He never participated. As people in the tribe were afraid that he and Xiaochu would starve to death, people would often take turns to bring him food.
In fact, the Snow Wolf Clan really did their best for the original owner. Even though the original owner tricked the protagonist into the territory of the seventh-level monster Scorpion Tailed Lion in the end of the book, and led a tide of beasts into the tribe, causing many casualties, the Snow Wolf Clan only drove the original owner out of the tribe and did not take his life.
It's just that the original owner's personality was too dark, and he was always used to thinking about other people's kindness in another way. If it were the original owner now, he would definitely think that the protagonist was deliberately insulting him because he couldn't catch the prey and asked him to go over to share the meat.
Because of his pride, the original owner had let Xiaochu and himself go hungry many times. It was because he never came back with the prey. When the prey was scarce, Qi's mother Lu would save some from her own rations for him.
Yu Sui didn't like this kind of personality either. It was understandable, but annoying. However, he still shook his head and smiled at Xu, saying, "I also caught some prey today. It's enough for the two of us to eat."
Xu stared at the chicken in his hand with wide eyes and said in surprise, "Are you talking about this chick in your hand?"
He scratched his head in embarrassment. Could such a big thing still be a chick? An idea suddenly occurred to him. If it was just a chick, he could catch some alive and try to raise them. No one in the Snow Wolf Tribe raised food or grazed the animals yet. He could try raising chickens first. If successful, he could also raise sheep and cattle. Thinking about the future with endless supply of cattle, sheep, and chicken, as well as eggs and milk, his mouth was watering with greed.
Xu said with a grin, "Alright, put that little chicken of yours aside for now. Qi finally managed to get back a Thunderfire Beast today. The meat is delicious, and it's very good for us beastmen. It can strengthen our bones and muscles. With a body like yours, eating more of its meat would be very beneficial. And your brother is also growing, so come over here!"
As he said that, he pulled Yu Sui up and left, cutting off a large piece of meat from Qi's monster for him without giving him any resistance, which made Yu Sui's eyes twitch.
This piece of meat looked to be at least 200 pounds, as heavy as a pig. Furthermore, even though the Thunderfire Beast was already dead when he approached, its residual power and residual magical fluctuations shocked Yu Sui, causing him to turn pale.
Wow, these fangs, this weight, this shiny black fur, although he was shocked, he was more eager to try. Yu Sui excitedly reached out to touch it, but this Thunder Fire Beast was beaten back by Qi, and Qi didn't look at him well, so he was a little embarrassed to touch it, and stood in front of the Thunder Fire Beast with shining eyes.
Xu found it a little funny to look at him. He always felt that Yu Sui was a little different today than before. He finally looked cuter and like a cub.
"If you want to touch it, just touch it. Qicai is not that stingy." He said.
If the original owner had heard this, he would have definitely made another note about Xu in his little notebook. To the original owner, this sounded like he was bragging about his relationship with Qi. Now that it was his turn, he would definitely not think too much about it. This statement was exactly what he wanted. Xu really was a good person!
He reached out his hand and gently touched the fur of the Thunderfire Beast in front of him. The Thunderfire Beast resembled a lion and a tiger, with huge sharp horns on its head.
According to the description in the novel, when the Thunderfire Beast is alive, thunder can be emitted from its horns, with a power equivalent to a full-strength attack from a magician, and lava fireballs can be spewed from its mouth. This means that orcs are resistant to magic and have thick skin and flesh, so they are not afraid of burning or striking. If humans were to fight such a big creature, how many casualties would be suffered?
The moment I placed my hand on it, a tingling electric current coursed through my palm. The Thunderfire Beast's fur was imbued with magical energy. No wonder the human world was so eager to acquire every part of these magical beasts. The shiny black fur was as smooth as silk, and the hair was soft yet very resilient.
The Chinese gene in Yu Sui's bones emerged. Such good fur would be great for making a toothbrush, an oil brush, or a laundry brush. When Qi and the others were dividing the meat, they did not damage the fur of the Thunder Fire Beast, so it looked particularly attractive.
It would be great if he could also hunt such good prey. Not only could he eat the meat, but he could also use the fur to make door curtains, mattresses, cushions, and clothes in winter. The hair could also be used to make various brushes.
He felt sorry when he thought about how human trade teams could exchange such fine furs for some crude salt, various seasonings, and pottery. Light industry must be developed!
"Thank you, Xu." He said sincerely.
In the past, the original owner's attitude towards Xu was good enough if he didn't roll his eyes, and he would often speak to Xu in a sarcastic tone. Now, his attitude made Xu feel a little uncomfortable.
"Okay, okay, what's there to thank me for? Can you carry the meat? If not, I can bring it to you." He suddenly felt a little embarrassed and picked up the piece of meat to change the subject.
Yu Sui's mouth twitched. These orcs are really thick-skinned. Men can't say no, don't they? People with sensitive minds do get angry easily, haha. He also felt a little sympathy for the original owner. Having someone as sensitive as the original owner among the orcs was like having a single winter melon among a group of winter melons.
He took the piece of meat and placed it on his firewood, then tried to carry it on his back. It was not as heavy as he had imagined. It seemed that he was only slightly weaker than his tribesmen.
Well, maybe not weaker. He recalled the scene when a group of tribesmen came back carrying a monster as big as a hill, and then thought about his own small body in beast form that was not as big as other people's feet. Forget it, he decided not to compete. It would be enough for him to be stronger than he was in his previous life.
After thinking for a while, he said to Xu: "This meat is enough for the two of us to eat for several days. Next time you go out hunting, if you catch any prey, can you give me some fur?" He was a little embarrassed, so he spoke hesitantly.
