Bringing a System to the Beast World
Chapter 453 Hope
Chapter 453 Hope
Wu Yue touched her ears and hands in disbelief. The thought that her hands, which were still considered pretty, were about to turn into braised pig's trotters made her feel terrible.
Seeing that her little face was a bit pale, Grandma Green Water smiled and came out of the cellar: "Make yourself a couple more down jackets to change into, or you can make another down comforter."
She patted the head of the grass standing to the side: "We're used to it. Sometimes the grass even comes with me to get snow."
Wu Yue scrunched up her little face and silently wrapped herself tighter in the animal skin. What could she say? Although she had cultivated witchcraft, her fear of the cold hadn't changed at all. She was also very desperate.
"By the way, haven't Yuan Lang and the others returned yet?"
Grandma Green Water frowned: "The first heavy snow is coming in the next few days. It will be so cold that even the orc warriors will not be able to stand it. If they cannot come back before then, it will be very dangerous."
During heavy snowfall, the fiercest beasts in the forest will hunt in advance to store up energy, and then hide in their caves until the snow stops before coming out to hunt again.
Wu Yue shook her head: "I heard Yuan Lang say before that he was only going out to see if he could find any wild animals that hadn't migrated yet."
"The wild animals that remain in the forest now are all large, well-insulated beasts with thick fur."
The remaining beasts have followed the beast tide to warmer places to spend the winter, and will return in the spring.
If no suitable wild animals are found, hopefully they will return soon; under no circumstances should they chase after the herd.
When the topic of the beasts came up, both Grandma Green Water and Green Grass looked worried.
Wu Yue's heart couldn't help but jump. She remembered that Yuan Lang had asked her before he left why he insisted on making those hundreds of down jackets before winter. Without much thought, she told him, hoping that Yuan Lang wouldn't take any risks to help her complete the task.
Thinking of the orcs' nature, Wu Yue felt even more uneasy, and immediately turned and headed home.
"Grandma Green Water, Green Grass, I suddenly remembered something, so I'll head back now."
When the two came to their senses, Wu Yue was already gone.
"What's wrong with Yue? She looks like she's in a hurry."
The sight of her friend's figure, as if a ferocious beast were chasing him, puzzled Qingcao.
Grandma Green Water tapped her son's head impatiently: "Mind your own business. The food hasn't even been put into the cellar yet. Hurry up and go get it."
After saying that, he jumped into the cellar in the courtyard again.
Wu Yue, who had already returned home, went straight into the bedroom, pulled up the blue chubby boy who was still fast asleep with his belly exposed, grabbed a down vest from the side and put it on him.
Tongzi opened his eyes somewhat groggily and found himself already dressed. A small animal skin bag was hanging on his chubby little body, bulging with three pieces of rock ore inside.
"Tongzi, follow Yuan Lang's scent to find him. He's probably chasing after the beast horde so I can complete my mission. Make sure he and the tribe are safe."
He then took out two porcelain bottles from his own space: "These are pills I just exchanged. If any of your tribesmen are injured, give them these to them. At the very least, they will make it to the tribe."
Seeing that Doraemon had two clumps of sleep in the corners of his eyes and looked confused, he chuckled and patted his chubby bottom: "Did you remember everything I said?"
The system finally snapped out of its shock at having been manipulated: "Host, is this what you humans call 'forgetting loyalty for the sake of beauty'?"
"What kind of loyalty do I have with you? Get moving!"
He grabbed the blue robot cat and threw it away in a huff.
The poor blue fat guy, with two blobs of sleep in his eyes, embarked on his journey to find Yuan Lang's beastman team.
Wu Yue thought that Tongzi might not be able to return before the first heavy snowfall, but unexpectedly, on the third day, the fat man was carried back in the arms of an orc warrior.
"Moon, when did this little beast run away? We found it in our territory when we came back and brought it back with us."
The speaker was an orc warrior named Shuo Tu from Yuan Lang's orc squad. He had a bright and handsome smile with his eyes crinkling at the corners.
"You're back already?"
Looking at the orc's animal skin clothes stained with blood, Wu Yuexin raised her head slightly.
Shuo Tu put the small beast in his arms on the ground: "Yes, we just got back to the tribe. The captain is with the beastmen processing the animal hides."
"Hunted a wild animal?"
Wu Yue was overjoyed, but then, as if remembering something, she looked at the bright-eyed orc warriors and asked, "Did you go after the beast herd?"
Perhaps because of her serious expression, Shuo Tu's smile froze, and then he hurriedly waved his hand and ran towards the tribe's river: "Lord Wu Yue, I'll go help first."
Before Wu Yue could react, the orc had vanished, leaving only wisps of dust.
"He ran pretty fast."
She couldn't help but mutter a few words. Judging from Shuo Tu's reaction, Yuan Lang had probably led the orc warriors to chase after the beast herd.
"Chief, are any clansmen injured?"
The blue chubby guy, who was even rounder than when he left, lazily glanced at his unscrupulous host: "They're all stronger than ferocious beasts, and they don't have a single injury."
Maybe they were there before, but with the orc warrior's abnormal self-healing speed, both scars were gone when he returned to the tribe. It's better that the dog host doesn't know this, lest he go berserk again.
Knowing that Yuan Lang and the others had returned, Wu Yue could no longer stay still. She turned around, grabbed a fur coat, and headed towards the river.
"My goodness, that's amazing! Yuan Lang and the others actually hunted a hairless beast. Its hide is thin and light, which must meet Lord Wu Yue's requirements."
"These bastards must have gone to chase after the beast herd. Thanks to the Beast God's protection, nothing bad happened to them."
The tribespeople came and went, discussing among themselves, their words filled with admiration and respect for the orc warriors, and some of the older orc warriors still felt a lingering fear about the young ones chasing the herd.
When Wu Yue arrived at the riverbank, the first batch had already been thoroughly cleaned and was drying on the large rocks by the river.
The orc warriors had all transformed into their beast forms and entered the river to wash away the blood and grime from their bodies.
A small pile of animal hides lay on the shore, which the diligent grandmothers had already collected and taken aside to wash. They were her hope for completing her mission!
Wu Yue immediately spotted the snow tiger, its beast-like form majestic and enormous, leisurely soaking in the river.
Although he looked the same as the other Snow Tiger Tribe orc warriors, Yuan Lang's aura made Wu Yue able to distinguish him from the beasts at a glance.
Perhaps sensing her burning gaze, the orc's slightly closed tiger eyes suddenly opened, instantly taking in the figure of the little female by the river.
"Roar!"
With a low growl, he dived into the river and swam a few laps before stepping ashore. Since the animal skin clothes he had worn earlier had been washed, when the orc transformed into his orc form, he only wore an animal skin skirt that matched the color of his fur.
With her snow-white hair wet and cascading down her back, Wu Yue silently turned her head and touched her nose.
Is this the legendary wet and sexy allure?
Although she turned away, she didn't realize that her bright red ears had already completely betrayed her.
Yuan Lang's lips curled into a pleased smile. His long, strong legs strode over to her side, and he stretched out his arms, pulling her towards his courtyard.
"The hides of the hairless beasts are easy to process. Although we don't have a good tanning method, I will have the orc warriors dry them later using the power of the Beast God. The hides will be quite soft after that."
Before Wu Yue could even struggle her little hand out of the orc's large hand, Yuan Lang immediately got down to business.
The next moment, he felt the struggle disappear, and the smile in his eyes became even more obvious.
"Then I'll have the slaves bring over the cleaned down later. Everyone stay up all night and try to finish the task before the first heavy snow."
The thought of obtaining the method for tanning animal hides after completing the task filled Wu Yue with excitement, and Yuan Lang could feel the excitement of the little female beside him.
"When I returned to the tribe today, something suddenly came to mind, and I thought you might not know about it."
Pushing open the courtyard gate and continuing towards the bedroom, Yuan Lang's expression was no longer as relaxed as before; instead, a hint of seriousness appeared between his brows.
After cultivating witchcraft, Wu Yue became very perceptive of changes in people's emotions. At this moment, she clearly knew that Yuan Lang's mood had become extremely bad just a moment ago.
And
There are so many things she doesn't know. Compared to Yuan Lang, who came to this world and inherited the original owner's memories, although she also obtained the original owner's memories, she couldn't help the fact that the original owner of her body was a sickly person who never left his house.
If it weren't for her father and grandmother taking care of her, she would probably have been serving the Beast God for a long time.
Therefore, aside from what the original owner, Amu, had told her in her spare time, she had nothing else to say about this world.
"The two most dangerous things this winter are the beast tide, which we already knew about, and the nomadic tribes of orc warriors who were driven out of their tribes in the polar forest."
Their hatred for the tribe was intense; they would kill any orc warriors they saw on sight. Most importantly...
These nomadic orc warriors don't mind eating members of other tribes; in fact, when food is scarce, they will actively hunt down and capture members of smaller tribes, imprisoning them and killing them for food when food runs out.
eat human!
Having lived in this world for so long, this was the first time Wu Yue had ever heard of the wandering beastmen.
"Didn't the four major tribes try to eliminate these nomadic tribes?"
How could such an evil tribe still exist?
"Compared to ferocious beasts, orcs are more terrifying, especially those nomadic tribes, which are numerous and abduct females every winter."
Wu Yue's heart tightened. What he would do if he abducted a female and took her back was self-evident.
"We've built city walls now. As long as these nomadic beast tribes can't get in, nothing should happen. Let's prepare our defenses and deal with whatever comes our way."
Yuan Lang stopped and turned to look at the small female who only reached his chest: "No matter what happens, stay obediently in the tribe."
The orc's deep eyes made her nod unconsciously.
Seeing the little female obediently agree, Yuan Lang's lips curled into a smile: "Good girl!"
Wu Yue: "."
How should I put it? It's like feeling like a pet.
She glared at the tall, handsome orc with annoyance, then stepped past him and walked towards the small pavilion in the courtyard: "You should change into clean clothes first. I'll wait for you outside."
The curtain on the bedroom door swayed, and the little female was no longer in the room.
The orcs were incredibly efficient; they had just eaten lunch when pieces of dried animal hide were already being delivered to the shed where down jackets were made.
While the beastmen went out hunting, the females had already sorted and cleaned the down they had collected. The dried down felt warm and comfortable to the touch.
"We still need thirty-eight down jackets. People, let's try to make them within three days!"
With the animal hides, down feathers, and people in the three studios all in place, Wu Yue was getting excited as the mission was about to be completed.
The females place great importance on clothing that can keep them warm in winter, and even the down fillings are carefully selected one by one.
"Yue, go and rest for a while, I'll do it."
"It's alright, hurry up and finish these, the heavy snow is coming in the next few days."
"Yes, the orc warriors will need these clothes when they go out on patrol during heavy snow. We should make them as soon as possible."
The females around her all had red eyes, but their hands didn't stop moving at all.
"How many are left?"
"I have one more piece here, but I'm missing two sleeves."
The females occasionally exchanged information about how fast they were working, and by the morning of the third day, only Qingcao and Wuyue each had a task left unfinished.
Wu Yue glanced at Qingcao, who was busy sewing, and was truly surprised that the usually carefree Qingcao had such a great talent for needlework.
Looking at her own rough stitches that barely managed to sew the fabric together, Wu Yue finished the last stitch and quietly hid the completed down jacket among the pile of clothes made by the other females.
Grandma Flower Tree, who was standing nearby, had already seen her little trick, but just smiled secretly and didn't expose her.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing life task two."
The rudimentary method for tanning animal hides, which you will receive as a reward for completing the quest, has been sent to your system panel. You can click on it to view it directly.
200 system points have been credited to your account. Please continue your efforts and achieve even greater success.
"It's snowing! It's snowing!"
The moment the system notification sounded, gasps of surprise came from the villagers outside.
The females inside packed away the down jackets they had made and hurriedly got up to go to the window to look outside. Some of the females had already gone out.
The ground, which had been somewhat pale under the moonlight, was now covered with a layer of soft, white snow. Large snowflakes were still falling from the sky, drifting gently down, making it look extremely beautiful.
