A Bug’s Desire To Survive - Chapter 85
In a few months, the valley has undergone a lot of changes. Several wooden houses stand against the mountains, and several mountains have been reclaimed, and vegetables and fruits are planted. In addition, a few open spaces are enclosed, and some hares, pheasants and wild boars are raised. A fish pond was dug near the river bank, and the water was drained into it to raise fish and shrimp in captivity.
The three are not only self-sufficient, but also have a lot of surplus.
Wuzhu is learning every day, learning to build, learn to weave, learn pharmacology, learn breeding, and learn animal language. Although the progress is not fast, he is diligent and conscientious and never slack off.
Vera has also learned a lot of life skills, and her personality has become more and more cheerful. No matter what questions she encounters, Yuan Chu will always answer them patiently. Her admiration for Yuan Chu is visible to the naked eye, but Wu Zhu’s behavior of marking Yuan Chu from time to time makes her give up the idea of courtship and become her little fan girl with peace of mind.
There is no winter in Yunzhao Mountain, and the temperature is as low as 10 degrees, so it can be said to be very livable. Although the physique of the hybrid orcs is not as good as that of the orcs, they are much stronger than the human beings. When it is cold, they only need a single coat.
Most of the original three people’s clothes were picked up, slightly modified, and barely usable.
The process of weaving is more complicated, and there is a lack of materials and tools, so they have no conditions to light up this skill for the time being.
“At the beginning.” Wu Zhu returned to the valley and brought a message, “Humans and Yan Clan are at war.”
“Really?” Yuan Chu put down the **** in his hand. Said, “Come on, let’s go and see.”
“What are you going to see?” Wu Zhu was puzzled.
“Look to see if there is anything to pick up.” They can’t trade with the outside world. Except for food, all other living materials are in short supply.
Wu Zhu said nothing, followed Yuan Chu out of the valley and ran towards the direction of the battle.
They have successfully removed the skeleton flower mark on the back of their hands, so there is no need to worry about the advanced orcs sensing them, and with the aid of the beast language, they can almost come and go freely in the jungle.
The two slowed down when they were less than a thousand meters away from the battlefield and slowly approached.
Gunshots, collisions, shouts, screams… From time to time, the two sides are fighting fiercely. There are about 300 people, and the scene is quite chaotic.
Yuan Chu and Wu Zhu were lying on the back of the hillside, secretly observing the situation on the battlefield.
At this moment, a high-pitched whistle sounded in the orc team, and immediately saw a vigorous figure shot out, and the cold light flashed in his hand. At a distance of 100 meters, he killed the opponent’s commander.
This man is in his twenties, with long chestnut hair casually scattered on his back, his skin is covered with light brown tread patterns, and he is as agile as a cheetah. His joining instantly reversed the stalemate situation. Human weapons couldn’t hit him at all, and he could only watch him wantonly reaping the lives of soldiers.
After dozens of minutes, the human team finally collapsed and fled in all directions.
“Ow—” The orcs chased after the victory, as if they meant to kill them all.
“That’s… a new orc?” Wu Zhu asked uncertainly, staring at the man with long chestnut hair.
“Yes.” The new orcs combine the excellent genes of the two races, with strong physique, smart mind, extended lifespan and amazing self-healing ability. In fact, they also inherited the animal language talent, but because the brain is automatically optimized, this talent that will cause a burden on the brain is hidden. After acquired training, it can be stimulated little by little.
The predictions of humans and orcs are not wrong. The future of this world belongs to the new orcs. Strictly speaking, they should be called “new clan”, not just belonging to the orc clan, but the hybrid orcs in the transition period are updated. Guan Jian is the ancestor of all new clans.
Wu Zhu silently measured the strength gap between him and the new orcs in his heart, and a war effort appeared in his eyes. He is not an opponent now, but in the future, he will definitely be able to defeat him.
“Get ready.” The original voice interrupted his thoughts.
Wu Zhu looked at her inquiringly: What are you going to do?
“Look at those half-blood orcs.” Yuan Chu pointed out.
Wu Zhu turned his head and saw that on the chaotic battlefield, dozens of mixed-blood orcs were standing together, and a few mixed-blood orcs escaped. Most of the orcs were busy hunting down the humans, leaving only a few orcs to guard.
The original target was the few half-blood orcs who escaped.
“How?” Wu Zhu expressed his support for all her decisions.
“Use a different animal language to remind them to run in the direction of the valley.” After Yuan Chu finished speaking, he took the lead in demonstrating, and let out a deer cry.
Wu Zhu followed closely and let out an eagle cry.
While sneaking, the two simulated the sounds of various animals, attracting the attention of those half-blooded orcs.
Their efforts were not in vain, and several half-blood orcs adjusted their directions one by one and ran towards the valley.
Yuan Chu and Wu Zhu followed behind to clean up the footprints and smells, and made some camouflage along the way to avoid being tracked by the orcs as much as possible.
“Why does it seem to be missing a few?” An hour later, the orcs who were chasing humans reunited and found that the number of hybrid orcs was wrong.
“Five runs.” The new orc with long chestnut hair glanced at random and said, “4 males, 1 female.”
“Bastard, do they think they can escape?” the orc with a scar on his face said angrily, “Kuya, you go back first, and I’ll take a few people to catch them back.”
Kuya straightened up, put the blood-stained dagger back into the holster, greeted him, and took the corpse of his companion and the half-blood orc, and left in a mighty way, leaving only the scarred face and six or seven other orcs.
They are all masters of survival in the wild, and with the existence of the skull flower mark, it is reasonable to say that it is not difficult to track those mixed-blood orcs. but. They wandered in the jungle for several hours, but failed to locate the positions of the mixed-blood orcs.
In the valley, the five new half-blood orcs looked around curiously.
“If you want, you can live here.” The original language was common animal language, which most half-blood orcs could understand.
“Thank you.” Tanz expressed his gratitude to Yuan Chu and Wu Zhu on behalf of his companions, then paused and said hesitantly, “But I think… I can’t stay here.”
“Why?” Yuan Chu looked at him calmly, probably already guessing the reason for his refusal.
“My child was taken away by the Yanzu people, and I have to save him.” Tanci looked at his companions again, “You stay, right? It looks safe here.”
“Brother, I’ll go with you to save Xiaoqiu.” Zhanzhang immediately expressed his position.
The half-blood orcs did not fully follow the tradition of the orcs, and the descendants were raised by all the tribesmen. Most of them live in isolation and are more accustomed to family units.
The remaining three looked at each other and hesitated.
These mixed-blood orcs have lived together for a long time, they have deep feelings for each other and are unwilling to give up their companions, but the strength of the orcs makes them afraid. As long as they get close, they will be sensed by the senior orcs immediately, not to mention that there is another one in the rock clan. A new orc with an explosive force value, it is completely impossible to save people.
“Apart from Xiaoqiu, do you have any companions you want to save?” Yuan Chu suddenly asked.
Tanci gave her a puzzled look and replied, “There are 14 of us in total.”
The Yan Clan destroyed the habitation of two half-blood orcs this time, and they were one of them.
Yuan Chu: “Do you think your companions are willing to settle here?”
“Of course.” They didn’t ask for much, just a place to live.
Yuan Chu: “Then save them all.”
Everyone looked at her blankly.
Save them all? As simple as it sounds, they almost believed it.
Yuan Chu looked at Wu Zhu: “Wu Zhu, you go to the Yan Clan to find out the location of the beast nest and the layout of the sentry.”
Wu nodded.
Yuan Chu looked at Tanz again: “You go with us, the others stay.”
“I’m going too.” Chopping Thorn beat his chest.
Tanci frowned: “I don’t want to implicate you.”
They all know that this is a road that has no return.
“Don’t worry, we have our own way.” Yuan Chu took a bamboo tube from his waist, “Now, let’s help you get rid of the skull flower mark first.”
Tan Thorn: “???” Skull flower imprint can be removed? !
In the middle of the night, Wu Zhu took the thorns and followed the traces left by the Yan Clan to find their tribe.
After a fierce battle, most of the warriors of the Rock Clan had fallen asleep, leaving only a few night-watching orcs patrolling around.
Without the pheromone of the skull flower imprint, Wu Zhu and Tan Thorn’s aura was almost the same as that of ordinary orcs, and their approach did not attract the attention of the orcs.
“I found it.” Tan thorn reminded softly in animal language.
Wu Zhu looked at the beast nest not far away, a pair of deep eyes twinkling faintly in the darkness.
There are two guards at the entrance of the beast’s nest, and a sneak attack can solve it, but the real problem is how to take out a dozen orcs of mixed blood quietly.
When acting separately from Yuan Chu, she had said that she would create opportunities for them.
“Look, it’s Kuya, a new orc warrior!” Tanci whispered, fortunately he used the beast language, otherwise he might be noticed by the nearby orcs.
Wu Zhu stared at the young and strong new orc closely, his strong gaze made the other party aware of it, and he looked over vigilantly.
Wu Zhu and Tan Ci quickly leaned down and held their breath.
Ku Ya took a step forward and walked towards this side unhurriedly. His posture is relaxed, but his muscles are tense, and he looks ready to attack at any time.
Just when they were less than twenty meters away, Kuya suddenly stopped, as if smelling something, and turned his head to look in a certain direction.
“Come here, a mixed-race female ran to the east!” There was a call from an orc in the distance.
Kuya slammed his feet and disappeared in place in an instant.
Dozens of orcs heard the sound and chased east.
Wu Zhu quickly realized that this was the opportunity originally created for them.
When the voice was far away, he immediately jumped out of the hiding place with Ku Ya, and with the help of the shield, he successfully stunned the guards outside the beast nest.
He took out the key from the guard and opened the beast’s nest. Kuya rushed in first, found his child, quickly communicated with his companions, and then helped them put on gloves made from the silk of the earthworm, temporarily shielding the skull flowers. Imprinted pheromones.
The goal of dozens of people was too big. Wu Zhu asked two half-blood orcs to put on guards’ clothes and stand at the door of the beast’s nest to cover their eyes and ears, and then smuggled the half-blood orcs out one by one.
On the other side, Ku Ya chased out of the tribe following the scent of the mixed-race female. After chasing for ten minutes, he finally saw the target fifty or sixty meters away.
It was a slender figure, with strong skills, running like the wind, like a ghost in the dark.
A flash of interest flashed in Kuya’s eyes, and the first sentence he met was a mixed-race female who ran so fast.
He quickened his speed and followed.
However, when he accelerated, the other party also accelerated, and the two maintained a distance of fifty or sixty meters, which never shortened.
Five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes…
Kuya was surprised to find that the mixed-race female in front not only ran fast, but also had good physical strength.
Under his pursuit, he was able to persist for so long, which was stronger than the average male orc.
The light of hunting appeared in Ku Ya’s eyes, he put away his indifferent attitude, and charged his feet, and shot out like a cannonball. In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two was shortened by dozens of meters.
Yuan Chu, who was running in front, seemed to have sensed it, turned his head to look, and his long hair fluttered along with it, revealing a pair of clear and bright eyes, like a blooming short-lived flower, which made Ku Ya amazed.
