Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 325 Returning to the Snow Tiger Tribe

Overjoyed, he let out a long, excited roar, turned around, and charged at the giant scorpions behind him together with the Snow Tiger Tribe orc warriors.

At this moment, the other side seemed to have finally spotted the orc warriors of the Snow Tiger Tribe. Their pursuit immediately halted, and they retreated while protecting one of the males in the middle.

The Black Wolf Witch, protected by the Black Wolf Orcs, stopped retreating and sat cross-legged on the ground.

As the yellow magical power in his hand flickered, it transformed into a light mist that enveloped the Black Wolf Tribe orc warriors and Yuan Lang and his companions.

The male, protected by the scorpion orcs, changed his expression slightly upon seeing the thin mist of magical power. His dark red lips were tightly pressed together, and his grayish-blue face was filled with gloom.

"Back off first." The hoarse voice sounded like fingernails scraping against tree bark.

Having vaguely guessed the identity of the innocent man, Yuan Lang stopped Teng Qian and the others who still wanted to pursue them.

They watched as a group of scorpion beastmen gradually disappeared into the forest at night.

The black wolf orc warrior standing nearby stepped forward with gratitude: "Thank you so much, orc warriors of the Snow Tiger Tribe."

As he spoke, he bowed and thanked Yuan Lang and the others.

Looking at the orc warrior in front of him, who was about the same age as Yuan Qi, Yuan Lang quickly stepped aside: "Uncle, you're too kind. We just happened to run into you while we were out hunting."

After saying that, the group walked toward the Black Wolf Witch who was resting in the back.

The pale-faced Black Wolf Witch was also somewhat surprised to see Yuan Lang, as he still remembered this orc warrior quite well.

She and Wu Yue were both present when they discussed matters at the Snow Tiger Tribe.

"Oh, it's Yuan Lang. Are you out hunting?"

Yuan Lang scratched his head, seemingly embarrassed: "We chased a ferocious beast to this area and heard a noise here, so we waited here. We didn't expect to run into you."

Black Wolf Witch nodded: "I heard from Tiger that you were the one who went to exchange salt last year, right?"

Yuan Lang nodded: "Yes."

Black Wolf Witch sighed: "Then you must know who these people are, right?"

Yuan Lang pursed his lips, frowned, and said, "I know."

Black Wolf Witch looked in the direction where the group of orcs disappeared: "I was targeted by these people as soon as I came out of the Snow Tiger Tribe, and I have been hunted down ever since."

We originally intended to return to the Snow Tiger Tribe for help, but they seemed to have sensed our intentions and have been preventing us from doing so.

The Black Wolf Tribe orc warrior standing to the side hesitated for a moment before looking at Yuan Lang: "Didn't you see the tribesmen we sent to ask for help?"

Yuan Lang's eyes darkened slightly. "A cry for help? Are you referring to two orc warriors from the Black Wolf tribe?"

Black Wolf Witch and several orc warriors' eyes lit up simultaneously: "Yes, they've already arrived at the Snow Tiger Tribe?"

Teng Qian and the others behind Yuan Lang couldn't help but rub their noses. They really didn't know what to say. The person who cried for help was killed in the very tribe they had asked for help. It was truly...

Yuan Lang shook his head: "They were killed."

His voice was calm, but his words made the bodies of the black wolf beastmen opposite him tense up suddenly.

"They must have been killed by the people chasing you. The pure human male who was just being protected in the middle was a shaman, wasn't he?"

Although Yuan Lang asked this question, his eyes were fixed on the Black Wolf Witch with certainty.

Black Wolf Witch nodded: "He must be the one who released the Gu worms into the Flying Eagle Tribe."

Yuan Lang continued, "Not only your two orc warriors, but also our tribe's shaman disciples were killed, and two half-orcs were seriously injured and almost met their maker."

Black Wolf Witch instantly stood up from the ground: "You mean those people have already chased after the Snow Tiger Tribe?"

Yuan Lang nodded: "They should have split into two groups. One group went to chase after the two clansmen you sent out to ask for help, while the other group continued to chase after you."

Black Wolf Witch's face darkened: "I knew it! Why didn't they get so close when they were chasing us a few days ago?"

He was filled with regret. If he had known that the sorcerer was not there, he would have killed the remaining orcs first.

Black Wolf Witch was left with fewer than ten orc warriors protecting her.

Besides, those orc warriors from the outer forest might still be watching them from the shadows. If they were left unattended now…

Yuan Lang glanced at the Black Wolf Witch; this weary witch probably didn't have much time left to live.

The Black Wolf Witch, whom Yuan Lang believed didn't have much time left to live, looked in the direction the Scorpion Beastmen had retreated, his eyes extremely gloomy.

"Why don't you come back to the tribe with us first?"

The Black Wolf Witch nodded: "This is the only way for now..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow rushed out of the basket behind Yuan Lang. Before anyone could react, the shadow swung its claws and pounced on a Black Wolf Tribe orc warrior standing on the outermost edge.

Everyone's hearts tightened. The middle-aged black wolf orc warrior beside them flashed to attack the dark figure, but Yuan Lang grabbed his arm: "Don't move."

Just then, the orc warrior on the outermost edge let out a painful roar, followed by a triumphant shout.

Only then did everyone see the appearance of the black ball of flesh clearly; it turned out to be a fluffy, chubby little beast.

At this moment, the little beast sat upright, its chubby bottom on the ground, one front paw on its hip, and a black and red worm stuck in the sharp claw of its other front paw.

At that moment, the insect was struggling and hissing.

Seeing this, the little beast's dark eyes flashed with disdain. It stretched out its little paw, put its hands on its hips, and flicked the insect's tail. The insect actually spun around the little beast's fingernail several times.

Tongzi looked at the person who was still in a daze, pouted, and let out a "woof".

Brothers, do you have any sense? Haven't you seen this before?

"Awooo!" It howled and swayed the insects on its sharp claws. Several orc warriors, including the Black Wolf Witch, could even see smugness in its little eyes.

Everyone looked at Yuan Lang in unison: "That's a Gu worm, isn't it?"

Yuan Lang's face stiffened: "...Should..."

Why are you asking me?

As if I knew!
He's starting to doubt it too, isn't he? Is this awesome little beast really the one he brought back?

Thinking of this, the orc narrowed his eyes and walked straight toward the chubby fur ball.

Tongzi stood there with his hands on his almost invisible waist, his chin held high, and stretched out his claws, which were sticking out Gu worms, toward Yuan Lang: "Awooo!"

"I won't eat it, you eat it yourself."

Upon hearing this, Tongzi immediately felt uneasy, staring at the blackish-red Gu worm in his hand that emitted a strange smell…

He quickly rubbed his little fingers together, killed the creature, and then grabbed a leaf from the side to wipe his fingers, which were covered in the insect's fluids.

Yuan Lang, who had just walked up to him, looked at the furball with obvious disgust. He took off the bamboo jar from his side and looked at the furball with cold eyes, saying, "Stick out your paws, they're filthy."

The little black bean-like eyes of the tube glared: "Awooo!"

I was the hero who killed the Gu worms! Shouldn't I be favored? Why am I being treated with disdain instead?

The little beast's accusatory gaze couldn't be clearer, but unfortunately, he wasn't facing Wu Yue, who was obsessed with plush toys, but Yuan Lang. "Claws!" The beastman's eyes were indifferent, lacking the gentle warmth he showed when facing Wu Yue.

The system stretched out its chubby paws, looking rather aggrieved...

Sure enough, men are all heartless jerks. They call you their darling when they need you, but treat you like trash when they don't.

The fluffy ball's tail, which it had been wagging so proudly, now drooped down.

On the other side, the orc warrior whose neck had been scratched by the little furball had stopped bleeding under the Black Wolf Witch's treatment. He stared at the furball with burning eyes, his eyes filled with drool.

The Black Wolf Witch walked over with a smile like that of a wolf grandmother, and squatted down next to the little furball who was washing its chubby paws: "What kind of beast is this little guy?"

He had an air of "I'm just asking casually."

Yuan Lang glanced at him: "I don't know, Wu Yue gave it to me."

Upon hearing this, the Black Wolf Witch's eyes lit up: "Are there any more? Give me one too."

He had barely finished speaking, and before Yuan Lang could even respond, the little furball started hopping around, waving its two wet paws: "Awoooooo... Awoooooooo!"
I am a unique beast, so what do you mean by "I'll give you one too"?
You think it's a chicken waiting to be slaughtered at a street stall?

but…

The chattering system completely forgot its current state.

So after howling for a while, the Black Wolf Witch looked at Yuan Lang with a blank expression: "What did he say?"

Yuan Lang looked at the leader, who was somewhat bewildered by the Black Wolf Witch's words, with amusement and said, "I don't know either."

After the wounded orc warrior regained some consciousness, the group dared not linger and headed straight for the Snow Tiger tribe.

The distance wasn't far to begin with, and they arrived at the entrance of the Snow Tiger Tribe early in the morning.

The Snow Tiger Clan Chief, who was leading his beastmen out hunting, looked at Yuan Lang, the disheveled Black Wolf Witch, and the Black Wolf Tribe beastmen with a bewildered expression.

"What...is going on with you guys?"

The Black Wolf Witch waved wearily: "Let's talk in the tiger's cave."

Having said that, he walked towards Snow Tiger Witch's cave with great ease.

At this moment, the Snow Tiger Shaman was brewing potions for Shi Lin and another orc warrior. When he saw the Black Wolf Shaman, who looked rather disheveled, he was somewhat surprised: "Why are you back again?"

Black Wolf Witch plopped down in his grass nest, rolled his eyes in annoyance: "The way you're talking makes it sound like you're disgusted by me. Shall I leave?"

Snow Tiger Witch glanced at him with a smile: "Take care, don't bother seeing me off."

Black Wolf Witch: "..."

A stinky tiger is very unlikable.

He sighed deeply: "I haven't even gone back yet."

After saying that, he recounted all the events that had happened after he left the Snow Tiger Tribe.

Snow Tiger Witch felt a chill run down her spine, thinking of Ye Duo who had been kidnapped and killed a few days ago, and seemed to have guessed the plans of these tribes outside the forest.

He said gravely, "It seems that these tribes outside the forest have set their sights on us old folks and the shaman disciples in our tribes."

After saying that, he looked at the Black Wolf Witch and said, "If you kill us, this tribe will be almost completely scattered."

"Did you get a clear look at the sorcerer's appearance?"

Snow Tiger Witch suddenly asked.

Black Wolf Shaman shook his head: "That person was very cautious, and stayed hidden among the orcs the whole time."

"His lips were dark red, and his face was ashen."

A deep, magnetic voice rang out at the cave entrance. The two shamans turned around and saw that it was Yuan Lang who was speaking.

Behind the Snow Tiger Clan Chief were Wu Yue and the less seriously injured orc warrior; the four of them were standing at the cave entrance.

Snow Tiger Shaman waved his hand: "What are you doing standing there? Come in, all of you."

After the group entered the cave, he looked at Yuan Lang and asked, "Did you see that sorcerer?"

"Perhaps because we appeared suddenly, they didn't have time to protect the sorcerer. I saw his face, just like I just said."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yue immediately recalled an anime she had watched long ago, the one featuring Fast VIII from Shaman King.
However, this sorcerer was certainly not as pleasing as Fast VIII.

Black Wolf Witch curled her lip: "Sure enough, those Gu witches all look strange."

"You'd better shut up. If Eagle hears you, he might poison you."

Upon hearing this, the Black Wolf Witch retorted, "He's a poison witch, not a sorcerer."

Snow Tiger Witch glanced at him, tossed him a wild vegetable dumpling, and then turned to look at the silent orc warrior beside him.

What exactly happened that night?

The orc warrior knelt respectfully on the grass mat: "That day, Shi Lin and I were taking turns guarding Ye Duo. Just as I went to relieve Shi Lin and rest, the bodies of two Black Wolf Tribe orc warriors suddenly crashed not far from Ye Duo."

Shi Lin and I were about to call for the patrolling tribesmen, but as soon as we opened our mouths, we felt something go down into them, and we couldn't make a sound.

As he spoke, he touched his throat, seemingly still somewhat shaken.

He swallowed hard and said, "Then a lot of orcs with scorpion tails appeared and attacked us while our bodies were numb."

Their leader was a pure-blooded male whose entire body was covered in black animal hides.

A pure human male covered entirely in black animal hide?
It must be that sorcerer.

"Ye Duo was frightened and shouted that she was a disciple of the shaman, but in the end, she was also taken away by those orcs, but..."

He scratched his head and said, "When they came, we couldn't smell anything on them, but before I lost consciousness, I think I saw something crawl onto them and then disappear."

Everyone fell silent. Such methods must belong to that sorcerer.

"This is really troublesome," sighed the Black Wolf Witch.

He has been away from the tribe for a long time, and if he doesn't go back soon, there will inevitably be some unrest in the tribe.

For a tribe, the authority of a shaman is very important.

Snow Tiger Witch nodded, then said to the orc warrior, "Alright, go back and heal your wounds."

The orc warrior left the cave with great respect, knowing that what happened next was not something he could hear.

"Host, the orc mentioned that the Gu worms are very fast, and they have a kind of mucus on their bodies that can paralyze people as soon as it touches their skin. They are very powerful."

Tongzi's voice suddenly rang in Wu Yue's mind, and her fingers seemed to be touched by something furry.

She looked down and saw that it was indeed the chubby little thing, but its furry face was full of grievance as it looked at her.
