Chapter 467 Going Crazy!

Her resentful eyes kept glancing at Yuan Lang, who was standing there talking as if it were nothing. Breaking through to the Great Witch level was as easy as drinking water, as you put it.

"I really don't have the confidence to become a great shaman within two years, but at the very least we should bring back a totem pole from this trip, and at the very least we should save these uncles."

At worst, we can save them and continue our travels. Before breaking through to the Great Witch level, we'll try our best to bring back totem poles each time.

This way, orc warriors who reach the critical point won't have to worry about accidentally leveling up and turning into beasts.

Yuan Lang chuckled and patted her head with his large hand: "Yes, let's work hard together."

Leveling up is especially important for orc warriors. He is not content to be just a silver-rank orc in the polar forest; he wants to become stronger.

Even though I haven't encountered any fatal danger yet, the thought of how powerless I am in front of those powerful tribal wizards is still unsettling.
Yuan Lang's hands unconsciously clenched at his sides. I must become stronger!

The secrets of the little female also need powerful forces to protect them; I am still too weak right now.

They both saw the determination in each other's eyes and couldn't help but smile at each other.

In the afternoon, Wu Yue went to see Xuehu Wu and told him about her and Yuan Lang's plan to go out and collect herbs.

Snow Tiger Witch sighed inwardly. He had wanted to stop her, but after seeing her bright and determined eyes, he nodded in agreement.

Forget it, let the young people try it out. Don't discourage them at this time.

Although he simply didn't believe there was any herb in the world that could calm the mind of an orc warrior who was on the verge of losing his mind.

"Going out is fine, but you need to be careful and avoid dangerous places, understand?"

Wu Yue nodded obediently: "Don't worry, we won't go into the deep forest."

Having his thoughts guessed, Snow Tiger Witch's old face darkened, and he waved his hand dismissively, saying, "Get out of here. These little brats are getting more and more annoying the more you look at them."

Wu Yue touched her nose, chuckled awkwardly, and retreated, muttering to herself as she walked away that older people these days really don't like to hear the truth anymore.

After returning home and making some preparations, Wu Yue sat on Yuan Lang's back the next day, and the two rushed into the forest.

Knowing that they would leave the Arctic Forest to find a way to break through their current limitations after stabilizing the orc warriors' mental strength, they naturally made some preparations for their departure.

Although they promised Snow Tiger Witch they wouldn't risk going into the deep forest, the two still went anyway for the crystal core, hunting down many ferocious beasts.

"These crystal cores are enough for your trip."

Wu Yue put all the crystal cores into her spatial storage. Five days had passed since they left the tribe.

Yuan Lang glanced into the depths of the forest: "Let's go, we'll come back after we get the totem pole."

Having said that, it let out a low growl and transformed into its beast form.

Looking at the majestic snow tiger before her, Wu Yue happily brushed its snow-white fur before leaping onto its back. The two then headed towards the Snow Tiger Tribe.

After traveling for only one day, the two arrived at the territory of the Snow Tiger Tribe.

However, looking at the snow that showed no signs of melting, Wu Yue frowned: "When will this winter finally be over?"

"The shaman estimates that there are less than ten days left, and the tribe's food supply is sufficient."

Yuan Lang wasn't too worried. In his memory, the polar forest had experienced many disasters, but they had all survived them, albeit with some difficulties.

Even though the snow hadn't melted, the orc warriors from various tribes still came out with their weapons to try their luck, and the orc warriors of the Snow Tiger tribe were no exception. After all, who would complain about having too much food?
As they were carefully searching for traces of their prey, two familiar figures suddenly appeared in their line of sight. The group was taken aback at first, then overjoyed.

A few days ago, several orc warriors who were on the verge of a mental breakdown wanted to leave the tribe and go to the forest to fend for themselves, but they were stopped by the chieftain and the shaman.

Then I heard from the clan chief that Lord Wuyue went out to collect a very magical herb that could stabilize the spirits of those uncles who were forcibly breaking through.

Although if the totem pole ultimately fails to upgrade into a true gold-tier orc, it will still inevitably succumb to the fate of losing its mind, everyone is happy to be able to stay with their people for even one more day.

One by one, people with bright, gleaming eyes surrounded the two of them.

Yuan Lang and Wu Yue had already spotted a group of clansmen ahead, and their pace gradually slowed down.

"Lord Wuyue, have you found that magical herb?"

The moment the orc warriors charged forward, they began asking about the magical herb.

Meeting the expectant gazes of the beastmen, Wu Yue was taken aback. Could it be that the shaman had told his people about his search for herbs that could help the beastmen stabilize their mental strength?

Although he didn't believe that the shaman was such an unreliable person, judging from the expressions of the beastmen, he knew that the news must have spread.

He could only smile and nod: "Found it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of the orc warriors in front of him shone brightly.

"This amazing herb really exists!"

"Aww! Uncle and the others are saved!"

"My father can spend more time with me now, hahaha!"

"Lord Wuyue, you are absolutely amazing!"

The cheers of the beastmen echoed through every corner of the forest, and the wild beasts hiding in the shadows couldn't help but cover their ears with their forepaws, as the sound was truly jarring.

When they returned to the tribe, the Snow Tiger Shaman and the Snow Tiger Chieftain were already waiting at the tribe's gate. When they saw Wu Yue sitting on Yuan Lang's back, their eyes lit up instantly, and their anticipation was self-evident.

Even the Snow Tiger Witch, who didn't believe that such a magical herb existed in the forest, was filled with anticipation.

I thought the two kids were just going out to have some fun, after all, so many things have happened in the tribe recently, it's natural that they're in a bad mood.

The news was spread because several middle-aged orcs in the tribe, in order to avoid causing trouble for their people, were planning to secretly leave the tribe.

This is unacceptable. They became like this because of the tribe. How can the tribe abandon them while they are still conscious?

Who knew that an orc would just return to report that Wu Yue had actually found that magical herb.

A glimmer of hope instantly rose in the Snow Tiger Shaman's heart, hoping that there really was such a miraculous herb that could save the orc warriors who had sacrificed themselves for the tribe, giving them a chance to live. "Shaman, how could you have let the news out?"

Wu Yue smiled wryly as she got off Yuan Lang's back. The welcome was quite grand, which made her feel somewhat fortunate.

Fortunately, I actually managed to redeem this herb from the system shop.

Snow Tiger Witch chuckled and waved his hand: "Enough with the nonsense, where are the herbs? Quickly bring them out so I can see them."

Now, not only the Snow Tiger Witch and the Snow Tiger Clan Chief, but also the surrounding clansmen stared wide-eyed at the basket on Wu Yue's back, their burning gazes seeming to pierce through the basket.

Wu Yue chuckled as she put down her basket and carefully opened it to take out a palm-sized, tender green herb with only two round leaves.

The moment the herb was taken out, a faint fragrance wafted out, invigorating the surrounding tribespeople.

His gaze toward the herbs grew even more intense.

Snow Tiger Witch's deep old eyes seemed to hold countless stars, and his smile grew even brighter: "Little Wu Yue, could you spare one of these herbs for me to study?"

As Xuehu Wu spoke, he looked at Wu Yue with his bright old eyes and rubbed his hands together expectantly from time to time. He really had no demeanor of a great tribal shaman at all.

Wu Yue chuckled and handed over the herb in her hand: "Although it's not much, it's enough for the orc warriors from our four tribes who are forcibly breaking through. You can study this one."

Snow Tiger Shaman carefully accepted the herbs she offered, his smile revealing his gaping teeth.

"Everyone, go back and call your uncles who forced their breakthroughs to the meeting room. It'll be safer if they take the herbal medicine sooner."

Seeing that the shaman was only staring at the herbs and chuckling to himself, Chief Snow Tiger sighed and said to the tribespeople around him.

Then he led Wu Yue and Yuan Lang toward the tribal meeting room.

Before they could even settle into their seats, the conference room door was violently flung open, and the Black Wolf Witch and the Black Wolf Clan Chief stormed in with several middle-aged orcs.

The group, their faces flushed, approached Wu Yue. The Black Wolf Witch looked at Wu Yue expectantly, his mouth opening and closing several times before finally asking in a hoarse voice, "Is there really such a herb?"

Wu Yue sighed softly, turned around and took out the herbs from the basket on her back: "These are the herbs that can stabilize the mental power of the uncles who are forcibly breaking through, called the Mind-Stabilizing Herb."

I'd only heard about it from the high shaman of the Huaxia tribe, and Yuan Lang and I went to try our luck. I never expected we'd actually found it.

Black Wolf Witch carefully picked up a herb and examined it closely.

The beastmen behind them stared expectantly at the herbs on the table, their necks craning several inches.

Wu Yue stood up with a smile and distributed the herbs to them: "You can just eat these herbs directly. After you eat them, you will feel that your spiritual power is no different from before, but it will only last for two years."

The orc warriors excitedly accepted the herbs, then bowed deeply to Wu Yue, their voices trembling slightly: "Thank you for saving us."

Wu Yue quickly dodged to the side, shaking her head with a wry smile: "You should let one of the uncles try it first. No one has tried this herb before, so we don't know how effective it really is."

The oldest-looking orc warrior from the Black Wolf tribe opened his mouth and stuffed the herbs in his hand into it, chewing and swallowing them.

The calming herb transformed into a cool sensation that instantly spread throughout the orc's body. The coolness rushed straight into the orc's mind, causing him to groan involuntarily.

Wu Yue and the people around her changed their expressions drastically. What happened? The orc warrior looked like he was in great pain.

With a surge of magical power between her hands, Wu Yue prepared to heal the orc.

However, before she could even make a move, the pain on the orc's face was replaced by a look of comfort, leaving everyone around looking at each other in bewilderment.

At this moment, the middle-aged orc warrior felt the cool sensation that had just hit his head ease and spread throughout his mind. The throbbing pain in his head that had been bothering him for days disappeared instantly, and his mind became clearer and more comfortable than ever before, making him groan out loud.

A moment later, he slowly opened his eyes, only to find everyone looking at him strangely. Thinking of the groan he had just made, his face flushed red.

"How about it?"

The middle-aged orc warriors looked at him expectantly.

But then the orc turned around and bowed solemnly to Wu Yue: "Thank you for giving me two years."

He was able to live with his people for two years before losing his mind, and even in the end, he had no regrets.

Wu Yue sighed, stepped forward and gently helped the orc up, saying, "You are all heroes of the tribe, how can I watch you lose your minds? Even if there is only a sliver of hope, we younger ones must try our best."

He then smiled and looked at the orc warriors behind him: "Uncles, hurry up and take the herbs. We've been collecting them for several days now."

Upon hearing this, no one dared to hesitate any longer. They immediately sat down on the ground and stuffed the herbs in their hands into their mouths.

Even the Snow Tiger tribe uncles who came in later followed the Black Wolf tribe beastmen and sat on the ground to digest the magical herbs.

At this moment, the Snow Tiger Witch and the Black Wolf Witch finally shifted their attention from the herbs in their hands to the orc warriors sitting on the floor in the meeting room.

In particular, the Black Wolf tribe uncle who had previously taken the herbs was now surrounded by two shamans, who were examining him closely.

The herbs didn't take long to take effect, and once everyone felt recovered, they couldn't wait to go out and share their joy with their families.

Seeing their restless state, the Snow Tiger Witch and the Black Wolf Witch waved their hands impatiently: "Go away, go away, you're all so old, yet you still act like little brats."

After thanking Wu Yue and Yuan Lang again, everyone rushed out in a swarm.

A moment later, the sounds of exclamations and sobs from the tribespeople could be heard outside.

The people in the conference room exchanged glances and all sighed in unison.

Wu Yue and Yuan Lang exchanged a glance, conveying their agreement, before turning to the two shamans seated at the head of the table: "Shamans, Yuan Lang and I plan to leave the tribe in a few days to search for a new totem pole."

Her words struck the minds of everyone in the meeting room like a thunderbolt, leaving them momentarily speechless, including the Snow Tiger Witch and the Snow Tiger Clan Chief.

After a long pause, a hoarse voice finally rang out: "Is it because of us?"

The one speaking was Uncle Da Shi, who hadn't left after finishing the herbal medicine. His expression was very stiff, and his eyes were slightly red.

“We old folks don’t have much time left to live. You’re still young, don’t take risks for us.”
