Players’ NPC daddy

Chapter 2195 Orc Curse Chapter 57
The Giant Hoof Tribe's celebrations are very primitive, but they don't feel shabby at all. The herbivores enthusiastically create music using instruments made from animal bones and hides.

Without lyrics or music, the sounds come together like a paintbrush, outlining the world as seen by the herbivorous beastmen.

The other orcs danced and sang around the campfire in the world depicted by the music, and the players, wearing orc headgear and orc equipment, didn't seem out of place at all.

And one day, humans will be able to dance within it without wearing such disguises.

However, players aren't just playing around. After participating in the herbivore festival, they trigger a special quest that allows them to learn a dance from the Gianthoof Tribe that can enhance their attributes and increase their vitality.

It might seem a bit pointless to have to perform the entire dance, but those present are all players who have endured high-pressure working environments, always follow the path of justice, and are quite prestigious. They can easily insert dance moves into the battle.

Furthermore, the orc dances of the Gianthoof Tribe are very primitive, evolved from the combat movements of various herbivorous orcs, with almost no superfluous movements; everything can be directly used in battle.
The powerful brick-throwing creature invited by Kate the Cat was not among them.

"You promised to invite me, but you're asking me to do this?"

With a dark expression, Dali Feizhuan watched the orcs singing and dancing in the distance while stirring the food in the iron pot with a ladle.

Besides the atmosphere, the most important thing about the celebration is the food. Dali Feizhuan, the only chef who can make glowing dishes, naturally became the head chef of the celebration. He is the real man who supports the entire celebration behind the scenes.

"I'm sorry, Lottie and the others asked me this really, really sincerely." Kate Cat imitated the apology gesture from the anime that Dali Flying Brick was watching, putting her hands together, tilting her head, and opening one eye while closing the other.

But Dali Feizhuan misunderstood; this action seemed to imply that she had seen his browsing history.

"Damn it!"

In his grief and indignation, Dali Feizhuan transformed into a ruthless stir-fry robot. He hated himself for visiting those websites. If he had only visited educational websites, would he have been caught red-handed?

Kate the cat breathed a sigh of relief. To make up for the brick-throwing stunt, she decided to help, but ended up making a complete mess of things.

Even a virtual body with extremely high attributes couldn't save her from only being able to cook instant noodles; in fact, the increased attributes made her even more pathetic.

Not helping is the best form of help.

Because he needed to prepare food for all the herbivorous orcs in the Giant Hoof tribe, Mighty Flying Brick gave up making glowing dishes and started making a big pot stew—pork stew with vermicelli.

Since only the White Tiger Beastman King, Bai Xiaonao, eats meat, the stew in the big pot doesn't contain pork, only simple seasonings, vegetables, and vermicelli.

Fortunately, there are sweet potatoes here.

The simplicity wasn't because throwing bricks was too troublesome, but rather because it was specifically requested by Beast King Lottie Sandrak; simplicity makes learning easier.

Dali Feizhuan poured the stir-fried vegetables into the pot. This was his last stand. Although he wasn't a proud chef, he had his bottom line and would never tolerate shoddy work.

"Sorry, you must be busy preparing food."

Beastmaster Lottie Sandrak arrived in a hurry, dressed in rather formal orc attire, seemingly for a celebration. "It's nothing, just a communal meal." Mighty Brick glanced behind Beastmaster Lottie Sandrak; several other Beastmasters had also arrived, but instead of wearing special clothing like Lottie Sandrak, they brought several large boxes.

"What are you doing?"

“This is the priest’s attire. I once wanted to become a priest and learned the corresponding etiquette, but I never expected that priests were chosen by selection. You can’t become one just by working hard,” explained Beast King Lottie Sandrak.

Dali Feizhuan had heard from the orc village chief that in the orc social structure, the chieftain was the head of the tribe, but the high priest of the orc god handled the trivial matters of the tribe.

From grand celebrations to trivial matters, everything was handled by the Great Beast God priests; the leader was simply the one with the biggest fist.

After the Gianthoof tribe declared rebellion and challenged the Great Beast God's position, although this action was in accordance with the rules of the orcs, some punishments still had to be imposed.

One of these measures was that the Great Beast God Priest would only exercise oversight rights and would no longer handle any matters concerning the Giant Hoof tribe.

This may seem trivial, but in the primitive lifestyle of the orcs, these rituals are extremely important. Without the High Beast God priest, things would really go into chaos, returning to the chaotic state that existed before the High Beast God appeared.

Fortunately, Lottie Sandrak, the Beast King, had once aspired to become the High Priest of the Beast God and knew what the High Priest of the Beast God should do. She even took over as the High Priest of the Beast God to preside over the Giant Hoof Tribe, which prevented the tribe from falling into chaos. Now, it is Lottie Sandrak, the Beast King, who will preside over the celebration.

Myota wants to use the Great Beast God to cause chaos in the world. The collapse of order is very important, but Mighty Brick doesn't want to say it now, as it would cast a shadow over the celebration.

In any other situation, this would definitely be considered a terrible mistake by a teammate, but after Kate cleared his mind and thought clearly about the current situation, he realized that the situation was not so bad as to ruin this rare and important celebration.

Their opponents weren't solely the Muta, but also the Azazel players acting as execution units. Frankly, the players had a rather glaring weakness: online time.

Only players who pass the assessment or have special qualifications can engage in virtual stealth for more than two consecutive hours. Ordinary players cannot engage in virtual stealth for more than four hours in a day.

With time on the line, it was clear that whatever Muta wanted to do, he could only proceed step by step, steadily accumulating enough trump cards to overturn everything.

Although Muta came to him and gave him a seemingly detailed criminal warning, he didn't actually reveal any specific details. His words were just meant to distract him and put pressure on him.

Moreover, Dali Feizhuan also came up with a way to find out what Muta was plotting, a method that Muta himself had suggested.

Myota himself is elusive, but the others in Azazel don't know what it means to be discreet. They take pleasure in flaunting their evil deeds and act very ostentatiously. It would be quite strange if they suddenly disappeared and became quiet.

Players might not notice this, but the NPCs who suffer the most will not; they may be afraid, but they will always be watching.

By asking Hermes's Hat and the Giants' Royal Family to investigate, they can find out the whereabouts of almost all the Azazel members.

In this contest, they may not be the only ones in the know.
