Guo Xiaoxiao: "Oh, I see. Luckily, I time-traveled late."
"Oh, right, I have another question. Hmm, why do all the people in the Beast World speak Mandarin? Didn't they invent their own language?"
This question had been bothering Guo Xiaoxiao for a long time; she always forgot to ask the system every time she wanted to.
She could understand Mickelson's speech immediately upon arrival, and in perfect Mandarin.
What? The language they invented is Mandarin, and it's become widespread in the Beast World too?
[System: "Hehe... It's a bug. Because we were worried you'd have trouble communicating with the orcs in the Beast World, we added sensors to both languages."]
"They speak their own language, and you speak the language of Earth. The two languages are mutually unintelligible, yet both can be understood."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "Um...can you turn off the sensors so I can hear how they're talking?"
[System: "They're all busy. If they find they can't understand what you're saying, they'll think you're sick. I suggest you wait until you have more time to think about this properly."]
Guo Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes, yes, the system is brilliant. If it thinks I'm sick and forces me to drink herbal medicine, I'll die countless times."
After finishing her conversation with the system, Guo Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and dozed off for a while, eventually falling into a deep sleep.
They packed all the bags and packages, mostly food, and hardly any animal hides. However, they did pack a few sets of clothes for Guo Xiaoxiao, since she's a clean person.
"Xiaoxiao, wake up, wake up, we have to go."
Carlos crouched on the animal hide, whimpering softly. Guo Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, wanting to sleep a little longer; she was exhausted after a long day last night.
Okay, I'll get up right away.
Randy transformed into a wolf and lay down beside Guo Xiaoxiao's mattress.
"Put Xiaoxiao on my back. You guys carry the bags; she'll fall asleep on my back."
Carlos nodded. "Okay," he said. "It's better to let her sleep on Randy's chest than to hold her. She's pregnant with eagles, and her belly isn't showing. It's fine for her to sleep on her stomach."
Carlos gently placed Guo Xiaoxiao on Randy's back. Guo Xiaoxiao didn't mind, hugging Randy's soft body and closing her eyes.
But when they left the castle and met up in the central area, Guo Xiaoxiao still couldn't sleep; it was too noisy.
It was a sea of people again, over ten thousand beastmen gathered together. The females all stood at the front, carrying nothing, while the males behind them were carrying large and small bags.
"Go to your respective teams according to the groups you split up last night. Don't crowd together. We've already smashed down the area behind the city wall, and it's now being piled up with stones. Once the barrier opens, slowly walk out."
"I will lure all the orcs to the city gate to avoid contact with us. Do you all understand?"
Cang Jue shouted loudly, saying that he was the most suitable person to carry out this mission, and he had even brought several disguised orcs, all of them eagle beasts. Could they fly?
They even pretended to set out some food behind the city walls, and the food was genuinely meant for them, since they couldn't eat the animals outside anymore, and the Beast City still had some food reserves.
If we go all out with the performance, we'll consider it a favor to them.
Everyone shouted in unison, "Understood!"
Cang Jue: "Since you all know, quickly line up in order and walk out from left to right. Don't rush, don't crowd, be careful, and quickly get out through the gap in the city wall."
"Anyone who dares to cheat or shirk their duty, I'll skin them alive!"
"Don't crowd the females and cubs. Remember not to embarrass the males; let the females go first."
Arthur nodded to Cang Jue, who then left, and the power to maintain order was handed over to Arthur.
Guo Xiaoxiao was being carried on Randy's back, snuggled close to his thick fur, feeling warm and comfortable. She couldn't resist rubbing against his broad back.
Randy felt an itch on his back, followed by a tingling sensation that spread throughout his body. His ears gradually turned red, but thankfully, it wasn't noticeable in his beast form. He quickly turned his face away, trying to keep his distance from Guo Xiaoxiao as much as possible.
Guo Xiaoxiao was secretly delighted to see his actions. They were an old married couple; why was he still shy about saying goodbye? Perhaps there were too many people around.
The orcs outside the city found the chatter inside quite strange, but none of them could resist their determination to enter the orc city today.
Cang Jue had already stood on the city wall, and the orcs on the wall had all been replaced by eagle beasts.
"Xiao Ni, after I finish speaking, go and look in all directions to see if they're gathering this way."
"Once enough people have gathered, run back and tell Xiaoxiao to open the cover."
Xiao Ni: "Understood"
Cang Jue spoke from the city wall.
"Everyone move closer! Everyone move closer! The city gates are about to open!"
"Let me see how many people there are. Wake up! Everyone stand outside the Beast City gates for inspection. Don't crowd."
There are female orcs outside the city, but they make up a very, very small percentage, indicating that the situation is so dire that even the males cannot survive, let alone the females. Females are burned, and the males suffer even more.
Now that female pride has vanished, the choice between life and death has become paramount, and females without mates are no longer needed.
This puts a lot of pressure on females, who are dependent on males for survival, and males also need females to reproduce; it's a mutually dependent relationship.
The female is very upset once the relationship is broken.
