World of Beasts: The vicious female supporting character goes crazy

Chapter 97 Praying for Fire
All the corpses were placed in the open space, except for the cubs, whose heads were almost missing.

The clan leader took stock and found that most of the clan members were killed or injured in Christian's sneak attack last night.

The orcs of the monitor lizard tribe retain the habit of eating the corpses of their tribesmen.

He first asked the family of the deceased to take the body back, and then all the tribesmen would eat the rest equally.

Too many orcs died this time. Even if the clansmen took back a lot, there would still be a lot left that could not be eaten. Even if it was stored in the cellar, it would smell bad in a few days in the hot summer.

So the clan leader simply selected females and cubs with relatively tender meat and stored them in the cellar.

A large pot was set up directly on the open space.

This cauldron is the common property of the tribe. It is made of clay. It is huge and rough in workmanship. Frequent use causes the area closer to the firewood to become darker, and it is covered with small cracks.

The orcs went home one after another, picked up their clay pots, and poured water into the pot. Several small cracks appeared on the outside of the pot, and water seeped out from inside and poured on the firewood, but it did not affect its use.

He randomly selected a remaining adult orc corpse and moved it into the cauldron without cleaning it. Anyway, the orcs only ate meat and did not drink soup.

The clan leader stood aside to give instructions. He noticed that the firewood under the cauldron had not been lit yet, and immediately reminded him: "Who still has fire? Get it quickly."

The orcs were filled with indignation and stood up one after another, saying, "My family's fire was robbed by the mermaid orcs!"

"My house was also robbed."

"My family is the same."

The clan leader was dumbfounded, "You've been robbed, how can you eat it? Eat it raw? Go to the homes of other clan members to see if there is any fire!"

The orcs scattered in all directions, looking for fire.

Even the deaf Ahua understood that the tribe leader needed fire and helped search the tribe to find fire.

The clan leader sat guarding the cauldron, waiting for their good news.

Unfortunately, the orcs searched the entire tribe and couldn't find a piece of fire, so they were all snatched away by Stian.

"Damn it!" The clan leader hated the orcs of the mermaid clan even more. Without fire, he had to ask the clansmen to eat their corpses alive. But too much time was wasted, and the corpse was hardened and the teeth were so rough that it was really difficult to chew.

The clan leader was old and lost two of his teeth after just a few bites. He became furious and said, "I won't eat! You go ahead and eat!"

Ah Yi frowned, "What should you do if you eat so little and still have so many corpses left?" It would be great if it was the snow season. There would be food for the whole snow season, but now it is the hot summer and the corpses are not there at all. Can't let it go.

The patriarch pondered and said nothing.

Siji on the side suggested: "Without fire, so many clan members' corpses can only be thrown into the sea. Why not send people to the Pangolin tribe to buy fire."

But the pangolin tribe is a bit far away from the monitor lizard tribe, with a peacock tribe in between.

The clan leader heard this and looked at Siji, "I went to the pangolin tribe to buy firewood and came back. The corpse has long been rotten and full of maggots. Is it still edible?"

Siji pursed his lips and said, "You have to buy it sooner or later."

The clan leader sighed helplessly. All the fire was taken away by the mermaid orcs. Not buying fire meant that they would always be able to eat it alive. After thinking for a moment, he looked around and asked, "Which of you is willing to buy fire?"

The world of orcs is bartering. The monitor lizard tribe lives by the sea and travels long distances to other tribes to exchange salt and sea fish for the items they need.

The journey to exchange items was long, and they suffered from starvation. Orcs often died on the way to exchange items, not to mention that they had already exchanged items once this year.

The fire that was taken away by Stian was just replaced. If I try to change it now, I won’t be able to get out the extra salt and sea fish.

The clan leader sighed when he saw no one stood up.

Ah Yi glanced at the stone house where Hua Qian was, and asked in a low voice: "We have sacrificed the beast elixir and asked the beast god for a little fire. Is that okay?"

As soon as these words came out, the clan leader's eyes lit up, but then dimmed quickly, "...Who is going to ask the Beast God?" It doesn't matter when offering sacrifices, but if you ask for it, if the Beast God is angered, you will die.

The eyes of all the orcs fell unanimously on the clan leader.

Patriarch: "..." Should the Patriarch die? Why does he have to be the leader of this clan? !
He took a step forward and flattered: "Clan leader, it was you who came into the house to offer sacrifices before, and the beast god didn't hurt you. Now it's most appropriate for you to go in."

The clan leader glared at Siji fiercely, but still entered the room, knelt in front of Hua Qian, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Beast God, I have a small request."

Hua Qian inside the protective shield suddenly opened her eyes and stared at him indifferently.

The patriarch was so frightened that he kowtowed quickly: "I, I, I, I don't want anything anymore!"

"I don't have fire, but I can give you a fireball." Hua Qian glanced at the full pot of beast elixirs in front of him. He could cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage by himself, which could take at least a few months, or at most a few years.

She just wanted to kill Stian and Nan Xuan as soon as possible, so she could only take a shortcut by swallowing the beast pill and advance to the Nascent Soul stage as quickly as possible.

There are many side effects of human beings swallowing pills for cultivation, such as accumulation of erysipelas in the body, instability of the foundation, etc. Because the pills are made from various demon pills and spiritual plants, they are difficult to absorb and will be rejected.

But Hua Qian is a beast herself, and beast pills can be a meal for her. They have no side effects and will only increase her cultivation.

What is a fireball? The clan leader looked confused.

"Don't want it?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Hua Qian slightly raised his eyebrows to show his displeasure.

The clan leader trembled with fear and quickly kowtowed, "Thank you to the beast god for the gift! I'll get a clay pot to hold fire!"

Clay pot? Can’t fit it in? Hua Qian hesitated for a moment, but the clan leader had already disappeared.

You must not use fireball in a stone house, otherwise the house will collapse.

Hua Qian took off the protective shield, threw the beast pill into the space, got out of bed, and walked out.

The orcs who had been guarding outside were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and trembled.

Just now I saw the clan leader slowly standing up and running out, and then Hua Qian walked out again, thinking that they lions had angered her by asking for fire.

Four Feet hurriedly climbed a step and loudly clarified the relationship, "Beast God is above me, it's the clan leader who asked for fire alone, it has nothing to do with me! I beg the Beast God to spare my life!"

The clan leader happened to run over with an empty clay pot in his arms: "..."

Hua Qian glanced at Siji, turned around and took a deep look at the clan leader. His eyes fell on the pottery pot in his arms, "It's too small. Get a bigger one."

The orcs of the Peacock Tribe are good at making clay pots and bowls. The clay pots are exchanged from their tribe and are usually used to store water or hold some food. There are no larger ones than this.

The patriarch looked down at the clay pot in his arms and felt worried.

Why is this so young?
The fire they exchanged from the pangolin tribe was only a small piece.

The clay pot he brought was so big, but the beast god was still too small? What to do?
