Chapter 322 For the Tribe (23)
The cat, now in human form, was dressed in black, but it was different from the other beastmen.
Orcs' clothing is generally the same as their fur, and its shape is similar to the leather skirts of primitive people in various world records. There are no other decorations; it is simply the original fur wrapped around the body to protect against the cold.
The Yuan dynasty, on the other hand, has made many improvements based on this.
His clothing wasn't the fine silks and satins typical of the cultivation world; it was also fur, but with a unique cut. It clung tightly to his chest and waist, loose from the shoulders to the wrists, then tightened again at the wrists. It was slightly longer at the waist, covering his thighs. The trousers were loose, only reaching the knees, and below them were a pair of pure leather boots.
This outfit made him look both noble and wild.
His hair was also different from the other orcs' purely long or purely short hair. It covered his ears in the front, and the long hair at the back reached his waist. There was also a band in front of his forehead, with a light blue gemstone in the middle. It matched his dark blue eyes, as if it could suck people in.
All the orcs felt an indescribable sense of oppression and fell silent.
Even though they knew they were dealing with just a cub.
Zhi coughed twice, signaling the golden tiger to go out and explain the situation. He then arranged for the clansmen who would come to receive the "blessing" the next day to prioritize the sub-adults, followed by the adult members of the hunting team, in order to ensure the most efficient improvement in combat strength.
At this moment, Yuan had already carried Jingli back to their residence. As Zhi watched the other's departing figure, a hint of worry unconsciously appeared in his eyes.
Yuan was the most unique cub he had ever seen.
This uniqueness may be a result of the Tree of Life.
Although his beast form is that of a cub, his human form is much more composed than that of an ordinary cub.
It's roughly the difference between a 14- or 15-year-old teenager who is still immature and a precocious teenager.
And the way he killed the intruder at the Tree of Life today was incredibly brutal.
Even though the orcs initially leaned more towards the characteristics of "beasts," they never used such a move.
The concept of Beast Force that Jingli pointed out today actually explains the power of Yuan to some extent, but it also brings new questions.
Why was he born with this ability? Why didn't other orcs born from the Tree of Life possess this ability? Why does he look like someone from somewhere else?
……
Jingli and Yuan were unaware of all these troubles.
Even if Jingli knew, he wouldn't care. Because he knew where Yuan came from and why he was the way he was now.
To be precise, Yuan cannot be considered a pure cub, but coming to this world must have cost him some of his power, which is why he is in a cub state most of the time, including in form and mind.
It's roughly equivalent to a power-saving mode.
This power-saving mode allows them to have enough strength to resist danger.
Today, facing the demonic cultivators among the invaders, Yuan must have recovered some of his power, which allowed him to somewhat enter the rift before spring's awakening at night.
As for Yuan... after he carried Jingli back to their nest, this guy became a bit dim-witted again.
He wandered around for a long time but couldn't find the mattress that Jingli had slept on the previous day. He was so anxious that he ran around and finally found the bed that Jingli had set up to confuse people. At least it still had some familiar smell. So he carefully carried Jingli into the bed and thoughtfully covered her with a blanket.
He then transformed back into a round-eared kitten, nestled pitifully in Jingli's arms, stomping his big paws until he finally fell into a deep sleep.
After watching the entire series, 6058 sighed softly.
Mr. Yuan has always had two faces.
The night was long, and he had much more to do.
A dreamless night.
·
The next morning, Jingli woke up feeling refreshed.
Yesterday's work only depleted his mental energy. As the strongest warrior in the tribe, he was indeed formidable. Even as a former S-class guide of the Empire, he had to be careful in the other party's territory. The sudden relaxation then released his fatigue, and he fell into a deep sleep.
With Yuan Xiaomao around, he slept well, was full of energy, and could even review the lessons he learned the day before when he was awake.
The awakening of Might is a great thing for the tribe, and it also means that other adult orcs will have the opportunity to awaken even greater power.
Today is another beautiful day.
The kitten in her arms was still sleepy, but Jingli was in a very good mood. She picked up the sleepy little guy and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.
The kitten meowed softly twice, then, somewhat embarrassed, scurried back into Jingli's clothes.
Bystander 6058 did not think this was genuine shyness.
It's just a ploy to lure me in, and he's also taking advantage of my son. Ha, men.
A person and a cat ate breakfast, which was a beef patty stored in the system space.
Yuan probably knew that her beast form was more appealing to Keiri than her human form, so even when eating, she maintained her round-eared cat beast form, eating in small bites, very elegantly.
6058 is a fairy butterfly that survives on the life force emanating from the Tree of Life and does not need to eat.
After we finished eating and tidied up, someone came from outside.
"Jingli, Jingli, are you there?"
There were several voices, and Jingli recognized one of them as a little leopard, a short bear, and a sub-adult member of the Flying Tiger Clan who was close to Qingfeng.
Jingli opened the courtyard gate, and a bunch of little ones stood obediently at the door. When they saw the scene inside, they all opened their mouths in surprise.
"It's so beautiful!"
They were referring to the wooden houses that were built within the scenic area.
"Is this also a force of nature?"
Jingli thought for a moment and nodded.
This is indeed something that can be achieved by the natural forces associated with the "wood" element.
Hearing this, the short bear and the little leopard, who were more familiar with Jingli, jumped up: "Then I want that power too! Can we have it?"
Jingli patted the two cubs and smiled, "Okay, but you'll have to practice hard starting today."
The kitten babbled and said okay, and Jingli put the kitten in her arms on the ground.
"Yuan... Kitten, you teach the cubs."
It feels strange to call a kitten "Mr. Yuan".
The kitten sat on the ground, its abyss-like eyes staring silently at Jingli, looking as if it didn't understand.
Jingli scratched his chin: "The sooner they awaken their own power, the more confident the Cangbei tribe will be in clearing out the invaders, and the faster we can complete our mission."
Jingli asked, "Don't you want to see me?"
He wasn't referring to Mr. Yuan in every world.
Rather, it is the complete Mr. Yuan.
The kitten nuzzled Jingli's finger, whimpered softly, then flicked its tail and gently swept over the cubs, including the leopard cub and the short bear, as if haughtily saying, "You all better follow me."
Jingli watched them walk away before following the sub-adult body back to Zhi's cave.
