Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 328 Familiar Magical Energy

Upon hearing this, Wu Yue looked at what he was holding, and her eyes instantly lit up with surprise: "An egg!"

Moreover, the eggs were as large as an adult male's palm.

Seeing her surprised expression, Nagano straightened his slightly hunched back: "I raised them according to your method. I didn't expect that feeding them some insects would actually make them lay eggs."

Wu Yue took the eggs from his hand and walked quickly toward the chicken coop not far away.

At this time, the chicken coop already had special wooden troughs for drinking water and feeding, and slaves were responsible for the hygiene of the chicken coop every day.

And ever since Wu Yue mentioned the eggs, the slaves have been dedicated to the task of getting chickens to lay eggs.

Nagano asked her more than once how to get the chickens to lay eggs.

For some reason, these chickens haven't laid a single egg since they were captured.

Therefore, Wu Yue was quite excited as she looked at the eggs in her hand.

Several little kids were lying around the chicken coop, holding bamboo jars in their hands. They were tilting the jars and pouring the insects they had caught into the chicken coop.

The chickens in the coop clucked excitedly, enjoying the food being fed by the little ones.

In a grassy nest in the enclosure, Wu Yue saw several more eggs.

Turning to Nagano, he said, "Take all those eggs out."

Upon hearing this, Nagano chuckled, opened the gate, went inside, and retrieved a few eggs from the grass nest.

The little rascals seemed to have just noticed Wu Yue, and stood timidly to one side, nervously fiddling with the bamboo jars in their hands.

Wu Yue laughed and said, "You did a great job. If it weren't for you catching insects to feed them, these chickens would never have laid eggs."

After saying that, he stepped forward and said, "Because you have made contributions, I will personally prepare delicious food for you today, using the eggs you exchanged for catching insects to feed the chickens."

The little ones were still young, and they were excited to receive a prize after being praised, so they all secretly peeked at Wu Yue.

Nagano, standing to the side, was somewhat alarmed and quickly stepped forward, saying, "Lord Gogetsu, we are all slaves, and it is only right that we do our work. How can we accept such precious food?"

Wu Yue laughed and said, "I'm giving this to the little ones, not to you."

After saying that, he walked over and took the hand of the youngest cub: "Come on, let's wash our hands first before we can eat our delicious food."

Upon hearing this, Nagano immediately followed, fetched a bucket of clean water, and personally supervised the cubs as they washed their little hands. Afterward, the cubs sat obediently in the grass nest under the shed.

Wu Yue took out the stone pot and then put all the eggs in it.

Because the eggs are relatively large, they take longer to cook.

Once they were almost cooked, I took all the eggs out, cracked off the shells, cut them into evenly sized pieces with a clam knife, and distributed them to the well-behaved, waiting chicks.

The little ones had never eaten such food before. They sniffed it carefully, then stuck out their tongues and licked it. Then their eyes lit up, and after carefully scraping off some with their teeth, their eyes widened instantly.

It's so delicious! No wonder Lord Wuyue was so excited when he saw this food called eggs.

Wu Yue left two eggs, planning to call Qingcao and Aya over that evening to make scrambled eggs.

As a handyman, Nagano naturally joined in, and after eating the food, he developed the same thoughts as the little cubs.

At dinner, after tasting the delicious eggs, Qingcao and Aya's views on wild animals with lots of fur and little meat and who couldn't eat them were instantly changed. The next day, they begged Wuyue to take them to catch some chickens to take home and raise.

Since then, two more people in the tribe have been catching insects.

Thanks to the hard work of the slaves, all the mushrooms within the tribe's safe distance have been harvested and made into dried mushrooms.

All the dried mushrooms were packed into baskets and piled up to fill the entire courtyard, which shows how many mushrooms there were.

"Lord Wuyue, are you taking all these dried mushrooms to the back mountain? Aren't you going to leave some for us to eat?"

Wu Yue took a dried mushroom from the basket in Nagano's hand and said, "Of course I kept some."

After saying that, he looked at the slaves around him and said, "Let's go to the back mountain."

Meanwhile, on the back mountain, unlike the slaves' bountiful harvest of dried mushrooms, the orcs guarding the taro were almost in tears.

During their early morning patrol, their keen sense of smell detected a strange odor coming from several cellars.

When I went down to check, I found that, perhaps because I hadn't noticed before, some of the taro had small wounds on their surface, and now those wounds were starting to rot.

"What do we do now? This is all our food during the rainy season."

An orc warrior squatted on the ground, pulling at his hair repeatedly: "If only we had checked more carefully."

The companion next to him frowned and thought for a moment: "You guys pick out the rotten taro first. I'll go to the tribe to find Wu Yue and tell her about this, and see if there's any other way."

Several orc warriors nodded, grabbed their companion who was almost like a man-made Mediterranean, and went to tidy up the taro in the cellar.

So when Wu Yue returned with the slaves and the orc warrior, a lot of taro had already been piled up on the grass behind the mountain.

She picked one up and examined it. These taro did have some small wounds, but not many were spoiled.

Perhaps because the orc warriors had a keen sense of smell, they discovered it as soon as it began to emit its odor.

"Wu Yue, are these taro... still edible?" the orc warrior asked somewhat nervously.

They won't forgive themselves for wasting so much food.

Wu Yue smiled and nodded: "They can still be eaten after some processing. Luckily you found them in time and picked out the spoiled ones."

If they continue to be left in the cellar, they will infect the healthy taro roots that have no wounds, and then all the taro roots will probably spoil.

Instead of being blamed, they were praised and their work was recognized. The orc warriors were overjoyed after their anxiety subsided.

Wu Yue took the small basket off her back and handed it to a half-orc warrior: "These are dried mushrooms, which can be stored for a very long time."

We'll cut off the bad taro and take it back to the tribe to make dried taro, which can then be stored for a long time.

The orc warriors were overjoyed upon hearing this, their eyes crinkling with laughter.

Seeing that the slaves all looked handsome and cheerful, Wu Yue went up to help put out the dried mushrooms. Wu Yue checked the storage of the taro in the cellar. The storage conditions and requirements she had mentioned had been perfectly met. Except for the taro with wounds, the rest were stored very well.

When she returned after her inspection, the slaves and the remaining orc warriors had already cleaned up the rotten parts of the taro and packed them into the slaves' baskets.

When everyone returned, they ran into Granny Huashu. Seeing Wu Yue leading a group of slaves back, she dropped what she was doing and came over: "What have you been doing?"

Wu Yue turned to Nagano beside her and said, "You guys go back first, and make a batch as I told you to, so let's see."

Nagano nodded, bowed to Grandma Hanagi beside him, and then led the slaves back.

Wu Yue then took a taro from the basket on her back: "Some parts of these taro are spoiled, so they can't be stored. I brought them back to see if they can be made into dried taro, which would be easier to preserve."

Hua Shu nodded absentmindedly, looked up at Wu Yue, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Yue, I know you've been very busy lately, but Grandma has something she wants you to help with."

Wu Yue was quite surprised to see the usually cheerful old lady so hesitant and stammering: "Just tell me what's wrong, and I'll definitely help if I can."

She was able to join the collection team thanks to this old lady's care.

Grandma Huashu chuckled and said, "That's right. As you know, our gathering team usually only gathers wild vegetables when we go out to collect them."

I heard from Qingcao that you can make dried wild vegetables and preserve them for a long time, so I wanted to ask if you could teach our foraging team members.”

"of course can."

Wu Yue answered without hesitation: "The method of making dried vegetables is very simple. Come to my house tonight and I will teach you."

Grandma Huashu laughed heartily and hugged Wuyue. Then, she ran happily to the gathering team to share the good news with them.

Wu Yue laughed out loud in a good mood, and then walked home.

Even after walking a distance, the cheers of the females could still be heard.

Meanwhile, at the mouth of a valley in the polar forest, two giant scorpions were lying on the ground, lazily swaying their tails.

In the valley behind them were the sorcerer who had been chasing the Black Wolf Witch a few days earlier, and the group of scorpion orc warriors who were protecting him.

At this moment, the sorcerer held a black and red Gu worm corpse in his hand. He brought his pale face close to the Gu worm, took a deep breath, and his face was full of morbid excitement and nostalgia: "It's such a familiar taste."

The familiar magical energy emanating from the little female reminded him of someone who had disappeared long ago.

That person was his little creatures' favorite food, incredibly precious. Only when his little creatures completed a major mission could they obtain that person's blood as a reward.

but…

The excitement and nostalgia on his face slowly faded, and a sinister look gradually emerged.

When I personally went out to attack a medium-sized tribe, that person actually escaped!
She doesn't need to go out to gather or hunt; she just bleeds her little creatures every day. What more could she ask for?

And now, it is truly thanks to the protection of the Beast God that he has once again encountered a female with such magical power.

It seems his little ones have grown up again, and his magical power level hasn't increased in a long time.

His gloomy eyes narrowed slightly, a sinister smile playing on his lips: "I'm really looking forward to it, hehehe..."

"Witch, the Black Wolf Witch has already set off for the Black Wolf Tribe, escorted by many Snow Tiger Tribe orc warriors."

As the sorcerer's thin fingers were caressing the Gu worm in his hand, a burly orc warrior walked in from outside. The orc's hair appeared black at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it had a faint reddish tinge.

Upon hearing this, the sorcerer slowly stood up from the ground: "Then let's set off and follow them. We have to kill one of them on this trip. Since what happened in the Flying Eagle Tribe has been discovered, this won't work."

The orc warrior frowned: "But shaman, there are quite a few Snow Tiger tribe warriors escorting them this time."

The sorcerer gave a sinister smile: "What difference does it make how many orcs there are in front of me?"

After saying that, he said coldly, "Let's go."

Stared at by his cold gaze, the orc warrior felt a cold sweat break out all over his body. He nodded quickly and respectfully followed behind him as they walked out. The remaining orc warriors followed suit.

On the other side, Yuan Lang and the others had found a place to rest. The orc warriors had hunted two wild beasts and returned, and everyone began to distribute food for lunch.

Yuan Lang then approached the Black Wolf Witch with a bamboo jar: "This is a powder that Yue gave me to ward off those black and red Gu worms. Sprinkle some on each orc warrior, and those Gu worms won't dare to come near us."

Black Wolf Witch's eyes lit up as he finished eating, and he reached out to take the bamboo tube, but Yuan Lang dodged him: "I can do it. This powder is very precious and we can't waste a single drop."

The Black Wolf Witch somewhat sheepishly withdrew its restless claws, glaring at Yuan Lang with annoyance. This kid was really not cute at all.

He stretched out his arm and said, "Then you can sprinkle some on me first. This old guy should be their target this time."

Yuan Lang nodded: "That's what I thought too, so I came to you first."

Black Wolf Witch choked. Sure enough, what use is such a brat? What a waste of such a handsome face.

Despite his complaints, his gaze remained fixed on the bamboo jar in Yuan Lang's hand. He watched as Yuan Lang carefully opened the jar and then sprinkled some dark red powder on himself.

Even more amazingly, the powder emitted a herbal scent that smelled wonderful.

And the moment the powder was sprinkled on his body, the little insects that had been flying around him just moments before vanished without a trace.

Black Wolf Witch's eyes shone even brighter; it really was a good thing!

He stood up very eagerly and led the way: "Come on, let me take you there. The kids in the tribe aren't easy to talk to, so don't waste this precious medicine powder."

The unapproachable orc warriors of the Black Wolf tribe: "."

Awooooo?
Where can you find such peace-loving wolves? There's nothing wrong with talking to them.

The sleazy black wolf witch followed behind Yuan Lang, picking at things here and scraping off bits of powder there, managing to collect a small amount of powder the size of a fingernail.

The dark red powder stood out starkly against the emerald green leaves.

Black Wolf Witch looked at the precious medicinal powder in her hand with delight, but then became puzzled when she saw its color: "Why does this color look so similar to that Gu worm from last time?"
