Chapter 470 Saw it

Yingze kicked a ferocious beast away, looked up in the direction from which the oppressive aura came, his eyelids twitched, and his expression changed drastically.

He paid no heed to the beasts attacking from all sides. With a swift turn, he soared into the sky and chased after Yuan Lang and the others as they drifted away.

As his figure disappeared, accompanied by a deafening roar, a ferocious beast the size of a small mountain appeared on the riverbank, raising its head and roaring angrily at the sky.

A gust of air rolled in, and Yingze's rapidly flapping wings twitched, almost causing him to fall from the sky.

He quickly calmed himself down, sped up again, and disappeared in the next second.

As soon as Yingze disappeared from sight, the enormous beast turned its ferocious gaze to the surrounding wild animals, and a chorus of howls filled the riverbank.

Meanwhile, Wu Yue and Yuan Lang were not having an easy time either. Their initial rafting trip was going smoothly until they killed a ferocious beast that was chasing them from the river.

The stench of blood spread through the river, and the next moment, the water surged as if it had been boiled.

A menacing aura emanated from the bottom of the river.

"Oh no, we've attracted the water monsters from the river again."

The three orcs' expressions changed drastically. The waves of energy that were coming were indeed quite powerful, far beyond what they could handle in their current state.

"Boss, you're right, this river is definitely not safe at all."

Teng Qian, with a mournful face, raised one of his paws, whimpering.

One of the claws on the paw had been gnawed away by something, leaving a bald patch, which was quite amusing.

Wu Yue took out a small animal skin pouch from her bosom, found a small bamboo jar, and opened it. The three orcs frowned.

The smell emanating from that bamboo jar was indeed quite pungent.

"What is this?"

Yuan Lang covered his nose, looking at the bamboo jar held in the little female's hand with disgust, as if he was about to throw it away at any moment.

Wu Yue quickly gripped the bamboo jar tightly: "Don't let its unpleasant smell fool you, this is a very potent sleeping potion."

After saying that, he tilted the bottle, and the powder slowly drifted from the bamboo jar into the river.

The churning, blood-red river water paused for a moment, and then the commotion slowly subsided.

The group exclaimed in surprise, "How long can this thing last?"

Wu Yue raised her chin: "It usually takes about a day for most wild beasts to survive, as long as they aren't too strong."

As soon as she finished speaking, strangely shaped water beasts seemed to float up on the silent river surface, like dumplings.

They drifted in different directions along the river.

"cracking!"

A loud eagle cry rang out, and everyone looked up at the sky. Yingze's figure slowly landed on Tengqian's back.

The moment Yingze landed on Teng Qian's back, his legs went weak and he sat down hard, panting heavily with cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Seeing his extremely frightened appearance, Yuan Lang and the others exchanged glances before asking, "What happened?"

Look how scared this guy is, his legs are practically weak.

It took Yingze a while to calm down. Seeing the people looking at him with concern, he smiled bitterly and said, "Luckily you left. While I was fighting those wild beasts, an exceptionally powerful ferocious beast suddenly appeared. Just a few roars from a distance made my whole body tremble."

If I hadn't reacted quickly and taken to the sky, you probably wouldn't have seen me at all.

The group felt a chill run down their spines, and Wu Yue quickly mobilized her internal witchcraft to release a small shamanic spell.

Green healing magic light dappled Yingze's body, healing not only his minor injuries but also easing his tense nerves.

He let out a long breath, and his eyes lit up as he looked at Wu Yue.

Just as I was about to express my gratitude, my back suddenly stiffened, and a chilling feeling crept up my spine from the tip of my tail to my scalp.

With a stiff expression, she turned her head to look, only to find herself staring into Yuan Lang's cold eyes.

Ha ha…

I really didn't have any bad intentions, I just wanted to express my gratitude. Of course, if you don't want me to, I won't be polite.

Withdrawing his bright little eyes, Yingze suddenly felt a jolt beneath him and was startled: "A water beast is attacking!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the snow-white tiger's back beneath his feet slowly sank down.

The group was shocked. Teng Kun quickly transformed into his beast form and took his brother's place. He opened his mouth wide and grabbed Teng Qian by the scruff of his neck: "Roar!"

A low growl escaped his throat, as if trying to awaken Teng Qian.

"Yuan Lang, is there any way to restore Teng Qian to his beastman form?"

Yuan Lang shook his head: "No, he seems to have fainted. Unless he transforms himself, there's nothing we can do."

Before the group could observe closely, Teng Kun's body beneath them began to sway, and then slowly sank into the water.

There's something strange in the water!

The river submerged the two beasts' enormous bodies. Yuan Lang held a huge snow tiger in each arm, his handsome face completely blackened.

His legs throbbed underwater, his mind tense as he observed the movements in the surrounding river.

However... apart from more and more water beasts floating up, there was no danger. Gradually, Yuan Lang also began to feel dizzy.

This feeling…

His deep eyes suddenly turned to Wu Yue, who was sitting on his shoulders: "Yue, where's that jar of medicine powder you had just used?"

Wu Yue paused, as if remembering something, her face paling: "Teng Qian just told me to give him the medicine powder, that he sensed danger up ahead and..."

The three men's faces turned ashen, and they instantly turned to look at the unconscious Snow Tiger, who was still drooling. At that moment, they only wanted to smash the tiger's head with a punch.

"That scoundrel must have gotten into some kind of accident while he was carrying the powder, which is why we've all been infected. Do you have any antidote?"

Having identified the root of the problem, Wu Yue quickly mobilized her internal witchcraft power to help them dispel the sleeping potion.

But the next moment, a wave of dizziness hit her, making her vision blur. Just before she fell into darkness, she cried out in her heart: I've been infected too!
Looking at the little female clinging softly to his head, Yuan Langjun's face darkened: "Yingze, drag the rest of them to the other side, I'll swim across myself." Yingze also saw the severity of the situation, leaping into the air and transforming into beast form. His beak pierced through the basket on Wu Yue's back, holding her in his mouth. His two talons each grabbed a tuft of fur from Teng Qian and Teng Kun, dragging them towards the shore opposite the beast tide.

The moment Yuan Lang let go, the eagle paused, feeling as if it had broken out in a cold sweat.

These two are just too heavy. It seems I'll have to suggest they lose weight after they wake up. Otherwise, with this weight, who will be able to save them next time? They're exhausting the eagle!

Because it was dragging a heavy load, Yingze did not fly too high. With the help of the water's buoyancy, it quickly carried the two beasts and one person towards the shore.

Yuan Lang followed closely behind the group, but when they were only a few hundred meters from the riverbank, Yuan Lang's eyes became glazed over, his hands, which had been paddling vigorously, paused, and his body began to sink.

The icy river water washed over his cheeks, bringing him back to his senses: "Eagle Swamp!"

It wasn't a very loud sound, but it was enough for the orcs to hear. Ying Ze, who was struggling to fly towards the shore while dragging two huge objects, suddenly turned to look at Yuan Lang, only to see the orcs trying to grab a piece of wood not far away.

"Take them to the shore first, then come find me, quick!"

After saying this, Yuan Lang lowered his head, tore off his belt, and tied his arms through a piece of wood as thick as his own legs.

My body gradually drifted downstream with the flow of the river.

Seeing that he was not in immediate danger, Yingze gritted his teeth and vigorously flapped his wings to bring Tengqian, Tengkun and Wuyue to the riverbank.

After dragging the three ashore, he barely had time to catch his breath before flapping his wings again and flying back into the river, where Yuan Lang was still waiting for him.

Yuan Lang was no longer in the spot. Ying Ze felt a pang of anxiety and flapped his wings, searching for him in the direction the river was flowing.

Yuan Lang drifted downstream with the river, swallowing several mouthfuls of water as he swayed. By this time, the medicinal powder in the river had been washed away, leaving hardly any residue.

He groggily opened his eyes and struggled to move his limbs, only to find that he still had no strength at all. Yuan Lang couldn't help but smile bitterly. If he hadn't tied his upper body to the wood earlier, he would probably already be meeting the legendary Beast God by now.

‘Boom! ’

Suddenly, a loud noise from ahead made Yuan Lang's slightly narrowed eyes widen instantly, and a look of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

A bitter smile crept onto his lips; he knew that voice all too well: "Looks like there's a waterfall ahead, and judging from the sound..."

Even from this distance, my ears are ringing; the waterfall must be enormous.

The closer they got to the waterfall, the faster the river flowed. Yuan Lang's body was swept along by the current, quickly approaching the place that seemed to be collapsing and splitting the earth.

All other sounds were blocked out, leaving only the enormous rumble that poured into my ears and reverberated in my mind.

Yuan Lang felt a sharp pain in both ears. Unseen by him, bright red blood was flowing from his two cochleas, and his face turned as red as if it were congested with blood.

A wave crashed in, carrying Yuan Lang's body against a huge rock. The giant tree couldn't withstand the impact and snapped with a crack.

The orc's limp body sank into the water and rushed toward the waterfall at an even faster speed.

Faced with nature, Yuan Lang felt so insignificant. As the rumbling reached its peak, he felt as if his body had been thrown out, and a huge wave of dizziness washed over him. The orc, whose vision was turning black, finally fainted.

The figure descended towards the waterfall with magical power. The next moment, a pair of sharp claws swept past the waterfall, grabbed the unconscious orc, and flew away into the distance.

Eagle Ze's damp fur made flying very difficult.

He had been searching all the way here but had not found Yuan Lang. Just when he thought Yuan Lang was dead, he found a belt hanging on a large rock. He immediately transformed into beastman form and searched around the water, but still found nothing.

Finally, clinging to a sliver of hope, they followed the direction of the waterfall and managed to rescue Yuan Lang just as he was being swept down it.

but now…

Feeling waves of weakness coursing through his body, Yingze couldn't help but marvel at the potency of Wuyue's medicinal powder.

Even after drifting in the river for so long, it still retains some medicinal properties.

The three people by the river were still unconscious. Yingze used all his strength to steady his swaying body, threw the orc under his claws at the two snow tigers, and then collapsed to the ground with his vision going black.

A pair of dark eyes looked at Teng Qian, who was blowing snot bubbles from his nose: "You've really screwed me over!"

Ultimately, she couldn't resist the waves of dizziness and passed out.

At this moment, the riverbank was quiet except for the breathing of a few people.

Although the orcs were unconscious, the powerful aura emanating from them kept the wild beasts from the surrounding forest from approaching.

As the sun gradually set, voices suddenly came from the forest, followed by light footsteps. Near the shore, a pair of thin, large hands pushed aside the bushes, revealing a gaunt, skeletal face.

Upon seeing the four giant beasts on the shore, the skeleton's eyes lit up, and then he suppressed his voice and uttered calls that only his own family could hear.

A moment later, a dozen skeletons appeared beside the first skeleton, their mouths practically watering as they looked at the giant beasts on the shore.

“Chief, these few wild beasts are enough for us to eat for a very long time.”

The speaking skeleton was male. He wiped the drool from the corner of his lips with his dirty hand, and his eyes gleamed with a hungry green light.

"Ok?"

The skull called the leader suddenly widened its eyes, making it look even more ferocious.

"Look, aren't there two people on those two snow tigers?"

The skeletons paused in surprise upon hearing this, their green eyes immediately looking in the direction their clan leader had pointed.

Sure enough, two people were lying on the snow-white fur of the two tigers, one female and one male.

The chieftain raised his hand, signaling his people to wait there. He then emerged from the bushes and slowly approached the beasts on the shore, his tail swaying gently behind him. He was a half-orc warrior.

As one of the few orc warriors in the tribe, his status within the tribe was naturally unparalleled.

As the orc chieftain approached the shore, a deep disappointment appeared in his eyes. These were not wild beasts at all, but orc warriors.

Perhaps they were injured, because even though I had already walked up to them, they still didn't make a sound.

The tribespeople behind him, unable to contain themselves any longer by his prolonged absence, followed him out: "Chieftain, these... um?"

Upon closer inspection, everyone's expression changed drastically, their disappointment impossible to conceal: "These are all orc warriors."

The clan chief sighed and nodded: "Yes."

Their tribe doesn't have the custom of cannibalism, but it seems like today's efforts will be in vain.
