Chapter 285 Crisis
In just a few days, the entire Golden Lion tribe seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud.

Almost all the males that go out hunting return wounded.

Bai Wanwan, supporting her swollen belly, moved slowly with her feet.

Looking out through the doorway at the plaza, it was clear that the Witch Cave could no longer hold so many wounded orcs, so they had to be placed in the plaza and cared for by the witch doctor.

"Are you worried about Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie?" A gentle voice, like a spring breeze, came from behind her, soothing her anxiety.

She slowly turned around and saw Xin Feng walking over with a steaming bowl of fish soup.

"Yes, the situation is not good. Although Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie are strong, it is still very dangerous if there are many Xiong Clan members."

As he spoke, he reached out and took the fish soup.

The flavor she clearly liked now smelled particularly fishy, ​​but she wouldn't be coy and say she wouldn't drink it.

After all... they still have water to drink. If this situation continues, they'll probably all go hungry.

After watching her finish drinking, Xin Feng took the stone bowl from her and turned to place it on the stone platform.

Just then, another commotion came from outside.

"Make way... Witch Clan, please let me see my father beast."

The cries of the young male echoed throughout the square, a heartbreaking sound.

Bai Wanwan also saw it; several wounded males were carrying an older male as they ran over.

Where they ran, blood was everywhere.

The tribal shaman immediately came forward and, after trying to stop the bleeding with herbs, shook her head helplessly and sadly at the young male.

The young male knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face. "Clan shaman, please, please save my father beast! He... he did it to save me! If it weren't for me, my father beast wouldn't have been so badly injured!"

Bai Wanwan's hands, hanging at her sides, were clenched tightly.

She was struggling internally, clutching the ointment that could save their lives.

With so many people injured, if she tries to save them all, her points probably won't last long.

With the path of using energy stones to lift the dark curse blocked, she could only hoard points to exchange for the system's help in lifting the curse.

On one side are the lives of so many orcs, and on the other is the safety of Zhu Xiu.

She still forcibly turned her gaze away...

She is not a savior; she is just a selfish human being who will choose her lover first when she has no time to think about others.

With her back to the outside, she reached out and pulled the door shut, trying to shut out the horrific scene outside.

But the door was blocked by a force when it was only half closed.

"Bai Wanwan..."

A hoarse voice came from outside the door; it sounded somewhat familiar.

Xin Feng faced the direction of the gate and first saw the people outside.

"Young clan leader..." Xin Feng nodded slightly to him, "Is there something you need?"

Bai Wanwan slowly turned around, and Jin Yi's slightly haggard face appeared in front of her.

Jin Yi pursed his lips and shifted his gaze from Xin Feng to Bai Wanwan's face. "I do have something I'd like to ask for Bai Wanwan's consent as a female."

"Ok?"

Bai Wanwan raised her eyebrows suspiciously, wondering what he needed her permission for.

"Young clan leader, what is it? You can tell me directly."

Without hesitation, Jin Yi pulled out a tube of ointment from his animal skin skirt.

"This ointment is the one we didn't finish last time. I wanted to ask you if it can be used on a seriously injured male?" Actually, after hesitating for a while when Zhuo Ling was injured last time, he decided to ask her opinion anyway.

After all, it was her stuff, but before he could even ask her anything, Zhuo Ling couldn't hold on and just died.

Bai Wanwan's gaze shifted downwards, looking at the remaining half of the ointment. "What's yours is yours. You decide for yourself, but..."

Bai Wanwan glanced outside, "Half a tube of ointment can't save everyone."

Jin Yi gripped the ointment tightly. "I know that from now on, we will travel in groups to reduce casualties."

Jin Yi left after asking the question.

Xin Feng helped her into the house and sat her down. Shi Hua had been taking care of Mu Feng all day, so she hadn't been coming over as often.

It's too chaotic outside, so the kids can only run around inside the house and in the small courtyard in the middle.

The weather has shown signs of cooling down in the last couple of days, so Bai Wanwan asked Xin Feng to bring out the potatoes that were hidden in the shade under the stone platform.

After Xin Feng did as instructed, he turned the plants over one by one. "They've all sprouted. Shall we plant them now?"

"Not today. Let the sprout grow a little longer, and we'll see tomorrow."

After she finished speaking, she brought up the system panel.

His gaze swept past the item section and landed on the weapons.

If she has enough points to exchange for the weapons mentioned above, what is there for her to fear from the Bear Clan?

"Peanut, I'm filing a complaint. This points redemption system is completely unreasonable."

Peanut's voice quickly rang in his mind, "Host, I told you before that you need to find a high-level beast husband to breed with to satisfy your needs."

"My beast mates are all Yellow-rank males, isn't that high enough?"

It should be noted that she travels between several tribes, and her beast husband is also a top-tier powerhouse.

“Your beastmen are indeed very strong, but there are even stronger ones. If you can go directly to a super tribe and find a red-rank male to breed with, the points you earn from one litter can be equal to all the points you’ve earned from your previous litters.”

At this point, Peanut softened his tone, "But I won't force you. We have a cooperative relationship. You are more clear-headed than the previous host, and the choices you make are beneficial to both of us. So I won't interfere or force you to choose a male you don't like to have offspring."

After a pause, it added, "However... I still want to remind you, host, to choose high-ranking males to breed with, and if you have enough points, you can exchange them for upgrade potions to raise the rank of your beastmen before they breed."

Bai Wanwan's eyes lit up. "There's such a nice thing? How do I redeem it?"

"The host currently has too few points to proceed with the next upgrade. Only after the next update will the host be able to redeem them."

Regardless, peanuts brought her good news.

So, after giving birth to this child, she first needs to remove the dark curse from Zhu Xiu, and then she needs to find a way to earn points to upgrade Peanut and allow the beastmen to advance their ranks first.

Just as they were pondering this, the light outside the doorway was blocked, and Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie walked in carrying their prey.

Their animal skins were covered in blood.

Bai Wanwan leaned against the wall to get up and looked at the two of them with concern. "Are you hurt?"

Zhu Xiu reached out and took her hand. "No, it's the blood of another beastman."

Bai Wanwan felt a little relieved, as Yan Lie had already thrown the two prey onto the ground.

He wiped the blood off his body and said breathlessly, "The situation is getting worse and worse. The golden lions are going out hunting in groups, and the bears are no longer attacking the tribe's orcs, but instead driving away their prey."

As he spoke, he took the handkerchief Xin Feng handed him and wiped the blood off his face and body. His sunny and cheerful face was now tinged with a solemnity beyond his years.

After listening, Bai Wanwan looked up at Zhu Xiu beside her and said, "If this continues, many beastmen in the Golden Lion Tribe will starve to death, right?"

"Ah."

Zhu Xiu didn't hide anything; if things continued like this, at least half of the Golden Lion tribe's orcs wouldn't survive the snow season.
