Haitang and the others sat not far away, waiting for the hyena clan beastmen in front to leave. The others had more beastmen than they did, while there were only three of them. Although Haitang could also transform into a beast, her combat power was not good.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible to confront them head-on. They could only wait in the shadows and wait for time to pass. Those people did not leave during the night, and Haitang and the others rested nearby.
The desert heat made the orcs insensitive to smells. If it were anywhere else, they would have spotted Haitang and the others immediately, and the hyena clan orcs wouldn't have left until the next day.
Of course, even after the other party left, Haitang and the others did not get up and set off immediately. They left after half a day. There was still blood in the distance. Haitang looked at it but did not say anything and sat directly on Yueyue's back.
"This kind of thing is very common. In this place, you can find very few people; in many cases, people are just food." Yes, in many cases, people are just food.
Upon hearing this, Haitang looked at Ximing and said, "It's pretty much the same in other places, the same kind of food as reserve rations. Am I wrong?"
When Haitang heard this, she didn't speak, but Yueyue nodded and said, "Indeed." Even in other tribes, this race is food during natural disasters.
However, this had never happened in the Tiger Clan. The children in the Tiger Clan, having never experienced such things, saw humans as no different from themselves. After walking for half a day, it got dark.
They found a place to rest. Lizard Ming had been the one guiding them all the way. If it weren't for Lizard Ming leading the way, Haitang and the others might have gotten lost in the desert.
The desert is vast. Sometimes, whether you're in the ocean or in the desert, if you don't know the road signs, you'll get lost and certain to die.
After traveling for several days, Haitang and the others stopped. When they saw the oasis in the distance, Haitang was a little surprised. "This is Desert City. Let's go and meet them..." This place is a large trade fair, a place where the residents of the surrounding desert come, and of course, it is also a place where criminals gather.
Many people here were expelled, and some were driven out and gathered here, their sole purpose being to rob and plunder travelers in the desert. Of course, they didn't rob just anyone.
They weren't fools. Robbery is something you have to consider the person you're robbing. After being in the desert, Haitang's skin looked a bit rougher. Of course, this was also partly due to Haitang's own deliberate embellishment. Otherwise, if her appearance were too provocative, it could also cause trouble.
There were many wooden huts and tents around, with people selling things. "Come and see, fresh beast slaves, they're still young and can be trained."
Not far away, someone had bound a naked orc with vines. The orc looked to be in his teens and was covered in wounds. He was on the verge of death and was being stared at by everyone.
Here, not only humans can be sold, but orcs can too. As long as you are captured, orcs can be sold. When Haitang and the others looked around, they didn't pay much attention. These injustices were not something they could concern themselves with.
Yueyue looked around and asked, "Is there anywhere to stay here?" Lizard Ming blinked and quickly nodded.
"Yes, but there is a safe zone here, the place of the local boss. It's relatively safe to live there, but it's outdoors." He said, looking at Haitang and the others.
People in this world aren't fools. They wouldn't let go of an opportunity to make money. Haitang and the others nodded and went to the place that Ximing had mentioned.
Lizard Ming also gave some instructions, "By the way, don't leave your female. If you leave her alone and she gets snatched away, it will be very difficult for you to get her back." He said this while looking at the crabapple tree in front of him.
Upon hearing this, Yueyue looked at Haitang, reached out and grabbed Haitang's hand, "I won't let anything happen to him." Hearing this, Ximing nodded.
When Haitang looked at Yueyue, Yueyue tensed up. When she looked at the people around her, her gaze was cold. Those people who met Yueyue's gaze immediately backed away and dared not be presumptuous.
Da Yi, standing to the side, also looked at those people with a cold aura. Da Yi followed Hai Tang, and at this moment, Xi Ming said, "Da Yi, you'd better not transform into your beast form here. Although I don't know how you managed to make people feel that your beast form is not good, your beast form is very valuable."
Yes, the first-year student is an orc of the Eagle Clan. Bird-orcs are highly sought after and loved everywhere. No one dislikes them, especially orcs who are naturally warlike.
Da Yi nodded and said, "Yes, I know." Da Yi was well aware that others were spying on the Eagle Clan. The reason why bird-beastmen were becoming fewer and fewer was due to natural disasters and the actions of other beastmen.
Bird-beastmen are a uniquely advantageous means of transportation. Capturing these beastmen would greatly benefit the development of one's own tribe, which is why bird-beastmen are frequently attacked.
Owning a flying beastman is something many people dream of. When Haitang and the others arrived at the rest area, they found it to be a rather unpleasant place, with everyone sleeping on the floor.
Haitang and the others found a spot to lean against a tree. Yueyue looked around, and Ximing said, "I'm going to inquire about some things."
"Hmm." Yueyue nodded. Ximing left, and Yueyue got some food for Haitang. As Haitang was eating, she saw someone in the distance trying to attack her. Yueyue immediately swung a stick at them.
