Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 623 Shark Pearl
"The most powerful water beasts in this forest river are actually closely related to the merfolk; they are merfolk, yet they are not merfolk."

Just like how orcs in our orc tribe who fail to advance become mindless wandering beasts, I think the merfolk in the Linhe River must also be driven by mere instinct for some reason.

The merman sitting behind Wu Yue didn't speak or make any physical movements, as if he was completely unaffected by the healing wizard's words.

The healing wizard coughed twice and continued, "The powerful orc warriors and shamans of the sea tribes are always proud of capturing powerful merfolk as guardian beasts for their offspring or disciples."

Among them, the mermaid pearl extracted from the body of a mermaid whose strength is above the gold rank can intimidate the water beasts in the Linhe River. Even those mermaids who have lost their minds and are left with only instincts will never attack the person holding the mermaid pearl.

That's why the orc warriors of the sea tribe were able to move safely in and out of the forest river.

But without the mermaid pearl, they, like us, would be attacked by powerful water beasts.

Wu Yue's eyes lit up slightly: "The mermaid pearl is really a good thing."

The mermaid, who had been sitting quietly to the side, trembled upon hearing this. She slowly raised her head, and a slightly hoarse voice came from under the wide hood: "If Master wants the mermaid pearl, I can take it out for you."

Wu Yueqing looked at him with a hint of disapproval in her eyes: "Stay put, what would I do with your mermaid pearl?"

She naturally wanted the mermaid pearl that could protect her from water beast attacks. The sea tribes had been proud of hunting mermaids for generations, and they certainly had quite a few mermaid pearls in their possession.

Besides, the other party wants items from our tribe now, so exchanging a few mermaid pearls shouldn't be a problem, right?

With a plan in mind, Wu Yue looked forward to the arrival of the long-haired orc even more.

After parting ways with the Dongsang and Maji tribes, and traveling for several more days, the group finally returned to the territory of the Xueyue tribe.

It was lunchtime, and the rich, sweet aroma of cornbread filled the air around the tribe, making everyone, who hadn't had it in a long time, swallow hard. "Tsk, I've always heard you guys say the food in the Snow Moon Tribe is delicious. I know you weren't lying to me, brother! Luckily, I swapped tasks with my brother to transport the totem poles, hehe!"

"My stomach is already rumbling. I wonder if we'll be able to get some hot food when we get there."

"What kind of food is this? It smells even better than roast meat."

"Roar!"

The warning roar came from Teng Qian's mouth, and after a moment of silence in the territory, it instantly boiled over like water being poured into a pot of oil.

"Lord Wuyue and the other orc lords have returned!"

"Oh! Lady Wuyue is back!"

"Sisters, come back and cook some food. Lord Wuyue and the other beastmen must not have eaten yet."

After Wu Yue and her group appeared, the road was filled with the figures of Xueyue tribe members kneeling and worshipping.

The healing wizard and the orc warriors of the Kuma tribe standing nearby stared in disbelief at the scene before them.

Did this female witch and the orc warriors around her really hold such a high position in the hearts of these people?
In their tribe, the only person who could earn such wholehearted reverence from the people was the respected Kuma Shaman; even the chieftain could not command such devotion from the tribe.
