Little Snake Ding: "They don't even provide food! We were starving as soon as we woke up, and we've been waiting for ages, but the mother beast still hasn't woken up!"
The snake cubs were growing rapidly and had an enormous appetite, but Carlos hadn't told Guo Xiaoxiao about this, so Guo Xiaoxiao raised them like ordinary children.
Carlos gave him a couple more scoldings; although his skills had deteriorated, he still understood a little of the vague meaning.
"Go hunting if you're hungry. The meat I'm carrying isn't for you; go now."
Little Snake C: "Don't upset our father. Let's go over there first, and then sneak in when the door opens."
The eight snakes slithered out in a predictable pattern and stopped at the corner, patiently waiting until Carlos and his companions opened the door and went inside. Only then did they reveal themselves and slither into the room.
Guo Xiaoxiao had just washed her face and was yawning, feeling a little groggy. But the smell of meat and fruit whetted her appetite, and she felt more alert.
What's good to eat this morning?
Cang Jue placed the food on the table.
"I've made some of your favorite fruits and meats, so hurry up and eat!"
The snake cubs hesitated at the door, too afraid to go in, but the aroma of meat was irresistible. They rushed to Guo Xiaoxiao's legs without a second thought.
Eight snakes swarmed forward, surrounding Guo Xiaoxiao in the middle.
"Meat, meat, we want to eat meat!"
"Give us meat!"
Seeing how obedient the little snakes were, Guo Xiaoxiao thought they would sleep a little longer, but they came to report for duty very early in the morning. Hmm, not bad, they are all obedient good children.
Are you hungry?
Guo Xiaoxiao held the meat in her hands, preparing to feed it to the snake cubs, when Carlos stopped her.
"Xiaoxiao told the snake cubs to go hunting in the forest on their own; they're capable of it."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "The little brat should stay with his parents. Letting him go hunting on his own makes it seem like we haven't cared about him at all, which is really bad."
Carlos was in a dilemma
"But that's not enough; it's not even enough to feed one snake."
Ah, just a few pieces of meat, not enough to fill her up. Guo Xiaoxiao usually eats very little in the morning, so she didn't prepare much. The other males, on the other hand, don't have the habit of eating breakfast; they just eat a few bites with Guo Xiaoxiao.
Guo Xiaoxiao observed that the baby snakes were quite robust; simply feeding them at home would definitely not be enough, and even the stored food wasn't sufficient for them.
"Are you all going out today? I want to take the little snake to the forest to hunt with them."
The snake cub was already very hungry. Seeing the meat fly away, it was extremely frustrated. After all that trouble, it still had to go hunting itself.
Just let us out already, we're starving!
Little Snake Armor: "We were silly. The mother beast wakes up late anyway. We should have run into the forest, eaten our fill, and then come back."
Little Snake Ding: "Yeah, we brothers just stood there like idiots for ages. We can always wake up a little earlier next time and fill our bellies first."
Little Snake C: "We woke up early enough. Mu Siyu only asked us to report in the morning, but she didn't specify what time in the morning."
The little snake darted onto the table, snatched a piece of meat, and started eating it.
Guo Xiaoxiao was startled, but knowing they were truly starving and had started grabbing at the food, she quickly gave them the remaining pieces, along with the dried meat the cub had eaten that morning.
Cang Jue: "They can really eat."
It was Cang Jue's eagle cub. He had prepared all the dried meat for the cub that morning, but it all ended up in Snake Cub's mouth. It wasn't that he was stingy, but his appetite was just too big.
Look at these eight snakes! They've finished the dried meat and the chunks of meat, but my uncle still looks like he hasn't had enough; he hasn't even filled the bowl to the bottom.
This is also a difference between races, where they don't understand each other very well.
Mickelson: "Xiaoxiao, I'll go get you some more."
Guo Xiaoxiao saw that the kids were still looking around the table, trying to find some more scraps of meat, but they came up empty-handed and lay dejectedly on the floor.
"Hey Mikexon, could you get some jerky? I'm going into the forest with them first."
Mickson nodded and went to pack some jerky for Guo Xiaoxiao. Randy would be accompanying Guo Xiaoxiao to the forest today.
Didn't Carlos establish the Free Tribe outside Beast City? Now, the stray beasts he brought to the caves, no longer with Carlos, are under Ling Feng's rule. The orcs simply can't stand his cruelty; he torments them relentlessly even when they're already injured.
Some of the stray beastmen recognized the beastmen led by Carlos and wanted to help pass on a message to ask if Carlos needed more manpower.
If necessary, he would risk everything to come over; with Carlos and Arthur under his protection, what could they do to them?
Carlos's words implied a desire to recruit more people to strengthen the race. Numbers are crucial; even the strongest individual can't withstand a combined attack. While orcs are powerful, they don't possess the ability to destroy the world.
They lived in the Forgotten Continent, and who knows how many more groups would migrate there later? The more people, the better, but quality was paramount; Carlos would certainly not accept those inherently brutal orcs.
Their free tribe has already settled above the cave and has attracted many females to live there.
However, none of the stray beasts that followed Carlos abused the females; at most, they were simply people who felt no belonging to their original tribes and had come to the Forgotten Continent to make a living.
The people of the ancient continent shunned the wandering beasts of the Forgotten Continent because they were unruly, undisciplined, and too free. Their treatment of females was so cruel, brutal, and inhumane that it was utterly despicable.
The Forgotten Continent is home to many orcs, and there are always some who are of sound mind. It's like joining an organization you can't escape, and returning to the rules and regulations of your former tribe is unbearable; so you're stuck here.
Carlos copied the rules from the beasts of the ancient continent, incorporating their customs and habits, granting freedom without allowing for excessive freedom.
In addition, they were already quite powerful, and they were quick to recruit females, including some orcs originally from the ancient continent.
