Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 516 Super Tribe's Roasted Meat

Ava, sitting behind Dong Sang, had a hint of envy and fervor in his expression, but he quickly lowered his head in an instant.

As Wu Yue was picking through the fruit in front of her, she noticed a burning gaze and suddenly looked up in the direction of the Dong Sang clan chief, only to meet his somewhat shocked eyes.

But this is different from the burning sensation I felt before.

"Lord Wuyue, your status in the tribe is truly high."

As Wu Yue picked through the fruit in front of her, she shook her head and said, "I'm not the most prestigious person in the tribe. After all, I only recently became a shaman after being a disciple of a shaman."

Chief Dongsang's smile deepened: "I know that. In the super tribe, the most respected person among the tribesmen is the Great Shaman."

His tone was tinged with regret, after all, someone of that status might be someone he would never see in his entire life.

Wu Yue just smiled mysteriously and didn't say anything.

But Chief Dongsang became increasingly certain of his inner suspicions.

"Chief, the hunting party has brought back new prey."

A familiar voice came from outside the cave, and Chief Dongsang felt relieved: "Bring in a prey."

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Wu Yue's expression above and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was still picking and choosing the fruit in front of her.

Perhaps Lord Wuyue didn't recognize Yingfei's voice.

A moment later, a half-orc warrior from the Dongsang tribe entered carrying a prepared prey, the fresh scent of flesh and blood spreading through the cave.

Chief Dongsang stood up and took the game from his tribesman, smiling as he said, "Lord Wuyue, Ava's roasted meat is delicious. She learned from the orc warriors of the Super Tribe. Let Ava roast this game."

Wu Yue nodded in surprise: "You guys eat barbecue too?"

It's no wonder she was surprised, because the people here never have the habit of eating roasted meat; they believe that raw meat is better at replenishing the body's energy and blood.

Dong Sang laughed and said, "We didn't eat it before, but after seeing the people of the Super Tribe roasting meat with fire, I sent Ava to learn how."

Although the roasted meat turned out black and bitter, since the super tribe ate it that way, it must have some benefits, right?
Wu Yue nodded expectantly: "Oh~ then I can try it."

The two super-tribes she had seen ate raw meat; she had never seen them roast meat.

So, the super tribe that Dong Sang mentioned refers to other tribes in the Cloud and Mist Mountains?
Ava smiled shyly at her partner's praise, then took the prey, which was about the same height as her, from Dong Sang's hand and went to process it.

Wu Yue: "."

Your shy expression and your immense strength are completely mismatched.

Looking at Ava's retreating figure, Dongsang proudly puffed out his chest: "Ava is the strongest female in the tribe. She can even go out hunting like a male, and she's even stronger than many males."

Wu Yue chuckled dryly and nodded: "Chief Dongsang's partner is truly a formidable female."

With his partner receiving praise from Lord Wuyue, Dongsang's smug smile grew even brighter.

"Moon, the wooden skewers are ready."

Teng Qian happily carried a bundle of wooden skewers about the thickness of chopsticks into the cave, and very conscientiously sat down next to Yuan Lang, starting to pick up the already cut pieces of meat and skewer them. Wu Yue then mashed some of the fruits she had previously selected, along with the seasoning fruits she had brought, into a stone pot, mashed them into a paste, and poured it over the skewered meat to marinate.

"Lord Wuyue, mixing fruit puree and meat together will taste very strange."

Sweet and sour fruit and meat.
As the Dong Sang clan chief spoke, he couldn't help but shudder; the smell was truly unimaginable.

Wu Yue smiled at him and said, "Chief Dongsang will find out whether it tastes good or not in a moment."

"By the way, Chief Dongsang, do you have a stone pot here?"

Stone pot?

Chief Dongsang nodded: "There is a stone pot in the tribe, but it is said that it was used by the tribe's shaman to brew shamanic medicine a long time ago. It has not been used since our tribe lost its shaman queen."

Wu Yue nodded: "If it can be used to brew witchcraft medicine, then it should be usable. Let the clansmen clean it and move it in."

The stone pot wasn't very big, about the same size as the pot they usually used to make soup. Wu Yue put the bones left over after Yuan Lang and Teng Qian had removed their meat into the stone pot, and then quietly reached into the basket next to her and took out a leaf bag mixed with various herbs and dried fruits. This was the soup mix she had prepared before leaving the tribe.

The soup pot had only been boiling for a short time when a rich aroma began to waft through the air. Chief Dongsang swallowed hard and asked, "Lord Wuyue, what kind of food is this?"

Why does it smell so good?
Wu Yue lifted the wooden lid covering the stone pot, inside which rolled the bones of the game that Chief Dong Sang was very familiar with. When food was plentiful, these were things that they would throw away.

And he never knew that the bones they threw away could be made into such delicious food.

Ava, who was carefully roasting meat at the cave entrance, also smelled the aroma and, unusually, withdrew his gaze from the roasting meat and looked into the cave.

There, the noble Lady Wuyue was stirring something in a stone pot, from which a rich aroma wafted.

The broth would take a while to cook, so Wu Yue picked up a handful of marinated meat skewers and put them on the fire. In just a moment, the aroma of the grilled meat skewers filled the entire cave and even drifted slowly out of the cave.

Wu Yue picked up the small brush she had just made from straw, dipped it in some animal oil from the small jar by the fire, and slowly brushed it onto the meat skewers. The sizzling sound of the meat roasting was especially tempting in the quiet cave.

'Gulp! Gulp!'

A loud swallowing sound rang out beside her. Wu Yue looked up and saw that the Dong Sang clan chief's eyes were almost glued to the meat skewers, and his Adam's apple was bobbing up and down.

If he hadn't kept his lips tightly pursed, his saliva would probably have flowed like a small waterfall.

Wu Yue smiled and handed him a few skewers: "Want to try this meat marinated with fruit?"

Chief Dongsang looked at the skewers of meat that Wu Yue handed him. Although he was reluctant to accept the large horn-shaped mutton skewers, his hands honestly shook them.

'It's okay, I'm just trying it anyway. I've eaten bighorn lamb before.'

After mentally preparing himself, he raised the skewer of meat in his hand and took a big bite.

The moment the meat skewers touch your mouth, a burst of fresh and fragrant flavor explodes within you, followed by the tenderness of the meat itself—far superior to the dry, dark, and bitter roasted meat from those super tribes.

Chief Dongsang narrowed his eyes in rapture. He had never eaten such delicious roasted meat before, especially since the skewers were made from Bighorn sheep, which are known for their exceptional flavor!
I've missed updating, I'll make it up to you today and tomorrow!
