Without the protection of the shield, who knows if they can even reach the Forgotten Continent? They might die along the way.
The beastmen were very anxious because they had no food and were doomed to die either way.
It's impossible for her to walk alone with Cang Jue; she'll have to use the system to guide her. How will the others get around without anyone to guide them?
When insects attack, she activates her skill to protect Cang Jue, but what about the others?
"If we can't go, we'll go together. Let's all move together; it'll be more convenient, and we can look out for each other. Cang Jue, you don't need to fly anymore; just walk on the ground."
"You forgot what I said? I can sense the location of parasites and lead everyone away from their harm. Wherever you follow me, there will be peace, food, water, and safety. Don't worry anymore."
As long as the system exists, Guo Xiaoxiao's promises should be largely kept.
Cang Jue: "It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I'm scared."
Mickson: "Cang Jue flies high and sees far, so you'll be safer with him. Don't worry about us. Let's meet up on the Forgotten Continent. Cang Jue will take you and the eagle beast first."
Carlos: "I also think that we should just move forward quickly with our team. As long as we're fast enough and far enough away, the parasites won't be able to catch us."
One more thing, there are so many people outside, there needs to be an explanation. If they open the shield and all rush in, the infected orcs will bring disaster in again.
We need to find someone to negotiate.
Arthur: "Right now, it's mainly the orcs outside. Many of them are infected, and every day orcs are burning corpses, so the place is always filled with smoke. Sometimes you can even smell it in the castle."
Guo Xiaoxiao felt nauseous again. "Damn, I knew I smelled meat!"
It smelled burnt; I initially thought someone was cooking, but it turned out to be the smell of a burning corpse.
My goodness, I've been able to smell it for the past two or three days. It seems the situation outside is extremely serious, indescribably serious, which is why I've decided to leave tomorrow.
"They're blocking the way outside, how are we supposed to get out? Fight them out? We can't get close, and burning them won't work either. Maybe I should try magic again, use a storm to scare them away?"
The skill cooldown is full; I can use it again.
Arthur shook his head, his face grave: "There are too many. If you surround the Beast City in a circle, I see that your sorcery can only affect those directly in front of you; the area to the left and right isn't large enough."
"And it's not just around the Beast City, the forests next to it are also teeming with orcs; there's no way to get rid of them all."
Arthur is not an indecisive person; he has a strong character and acts decisively. Once he makes a decision, he will immediately put it into action.
He possesses both great courage and ability, far surpassing the typical male physique.
Before the insect plague descended, he always had this confidence: he could solve all the world's difficulties and dominate the beast world.
Only now do I realize how powerless I am in the face of nature's devastation; I am still so weak.
"Then you said you were leaving tomorrow, but you can't leave now? Why don't you wait a little longer, and I'll think of something else?"
Arthur reached out and enveloped Guo Xiaoxiao's hand.
"I've come up with a plan. I'll negotiate with them tonight. All I have to do is say that we'll give them the entire Beast City, and they'll surely offer us a way out."
"They're all desperate to get into Beast City, so let them have it. They think getting into Beast City will solve everything? Poor guys."
Carlos: "Listen to me this last time. Let Cang Jue take you away tomorrow."
Randy ate his meat in silence, staring at Guo Xiaoxiao, hoping she would agree. No one's life was more important than hers; if he could, he would rather be parasitized himself than let her be safe.
Guo Xiaoxiao absolutely refused. Even if they weren't her male companions, they couldn't be so disloyal. They had risked their lives together, so many people had died saving her, and she was just going to leave like that? She'd be struck by lightning!
"No, I absolutely won't. Please listen to me this once. I can safely bring you to the Forgotten Continent. Give me just a little bit of trust, and everyone will be fine, okay?"
Carlos and Cang Jue tried to persuade her, but she directly shifted the blame.
"Do you think I'm too weak? I'm leaving now, you can stay!"
Guo Xiaoxiao stood up and rushed out, but Arthur stopped her.
"Are you being silly? Are you angry again?"
Is this a reaction to pregnancy? She gets easily agitated after just a few words, and this is becoming more pronounced as her due date approaches.
Let me go
She tried to break free from Arthur's grasp, but the gap was too great, and she couldn't escape.
"Xiaoxiao, you were wrong, don't be angry, okay?"
Arthur was at his wit's end with her and could only plead for forgiveness. He knew what she cared about and couldn't bear to see her suffer. Besides, Guo Xiaoxiao was acting strangely lately, and he didn't know how to appease her. Even Carlos found it difficult to handle.
Guo Xiaoxiao: "I'm not angry. I really can't abandon everyone. I can't do that."
Okay, okay, I'm not going to say anymore.
His hand gently stroked her long hair, comforting her.
"Alright, Arthur, you go and talk to the orcs outside the city tonight, and I'll go and talk to Cang Jue's people tonight."
Guo Xiaoxiao said to Cang Jue
"I overheard your conversation with them. Those eagle beasts are defiant towards you, aren't they? Take me there, I'll have a good talk with them."
Cang Jue: "What are you going to do? Tell me what you want to say, and I'll pass it on to them."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "No, what you say is different from what I say. I have a very high status in their hearts; I'm a great shaman. Only my words carry weight."
"You chased them away after saying only a few words. You need to analyze the cause, effect, pros, and cons clearly. Take me there."
Randy: "I'll go with you and protect you."
They're our own people, they won't lay a hand on us, Guo Xiaoxiao said.
"No need, just wait for me at home. Cang Jue and I will be right back, we'll definitely get it done."
Guo Xiaoxiao patted her chest and assured everyone that although she was about to give birth, she still had the ability to run, jump, and talk.
After much deliberation, Cang Jue saw that Guo Xiaoxiao was determined and had no choice but to give up.
"Alright, alright, let's go together. I know you guys too well; you have to see for yourselves how she treats the beastmen before you're satisfied."
They agreed to split into two groups.
Cang Jue and Mickson walked side by side. Mickson turned his head to the side, his gaze burning: "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Cang Jue insisted on taking Guo Xiaoxiao away from the beginning, but suddenly changed his mind.
Cang Jue smiled, a mysterious expression on his face.
"I respect Xiaoxiao the most."
"What trick are you up to now?"
Cang Jue: "Keep it a secret. As long as the matter is resolved, stop gossiping."
Mickelson: ......
…
Upon arriving at the territory of the Sishui tribe, Cang Jue summoned all the eagle beasts, all of whom were core members; ordinary beastmen were not qualified to attend such a meeting.
Randy, Carlos, and Mickelson accompanied him, leaving Arthur alone to deal with the mess outside.
