Chapter 327 Giant Lizard
Chapter 327 Giant Lizard
Having just experienced that terrifying bee attack, Ruan Mianmian patted her chest with lingering fear, gaining a completely new and profound understanding of adventure.
At this moment, the longing to return to her tribe surged within her like a tidal wave, almost overwhelming her.
The orcs stood up, preparing to embark on their journey home.
According to the plan, they will travel eastward along the west.
After observing the surrounding terrain and scenery, Sen pointed to the winding river ahead and said, "If we just follow this river eastward, we should be able to return to our tribe smoothly. Perhaps the lake in the tribe is fed by water flowing from here."
Hearing this, Guang looked at the shimmering river in the distance and couldn't help but smile happily, saying loudly, "Haha, now that you've reminded me, this river suddenly feels so much more welcoming!"
"Alright, now that everyone has rested enough, let's not waste any more time and get going."
At a command, the orcs began to move forward, clinging tightly to the riverbank.
Along the way, they saw many relatively small animals frolicking and playing in the grass, or drinking and foraging by the river.
Meanwhile, Ruan Mianmian sat comfortably atop Sen Kuankuo's head, her eyes fixed on the map in the system, studying it carefully.
Recalling how she had been angry with the system and hadn't carefully checked the relevant information, which had led to her and her companions being in such a dangerous situation, she felt deeply remorseful.
Now that she finally has some free time, she is determined to thoroughly investigate the surrounding environment and the habits and characteristics of various creatures.
Sen moved through the forest, while the other orcs of the tribe surrounded and protected Ruan Mianmian, who was at the very center.
After walking for a while, the sound of flowing water ahead suddenly became louder.
"Chief, everyone wait here for a moment. I'll go ahead and see what's going on." As the orc captain who led the team, Ye also took on the responsibility of scouting ahead.
After greeting Ruan Mianmian, he ran forward.
After running for about ten minutes, a mountain stream appeared ahead, with clear white water rushing down from the mountain. Ye stood by the stream, his face full of amazement.
The mountain stream was quite spectacular, with its rapid current creating layers of mist. He cautiously approached and discovered a small path that led down into the stream.
Ye hurriedly turned around and ran back to report the situation to everyone. After listening, Sen decided to lead everyone down the path to explore.
Ruan Mianmian looked around curiously, and when she reached the bottom of the ravine, she was pleasantly surprised to find that there were many unique herbs there.
She quickly opened the system to check the effects of these herbs and found that several of them could treat common diseases in the tribe.
Just as everyone was getting excited, a huge lizard-like creature suddenly darted out of the cave and lunged at them with its gaping maw.
The beastmen quickly formed a circle, protecting Ruan Mianmian in the middle, while Sen was the first to rush towards the monster and fight it.
Other orcs were not to be outdone and joined the battle.
Ruan Mianmian watched the battle intently from behind, while simultaneously searching for the monster's weaknesses in the system, hoping to lend her companions a helping hand.
After some searching, Ruan Mianmian finally found the lizard's weak point in the rear part of its abdomen.
Ignoring her fear, she shouted at the orcs engaged in fierce combat, "Attack its belly from behind! That's its weak point!"
Upon hearing this, Sen seized the opportunity, dodging the lizard's sharp teeth, and rolled behind it, striking its weak point with deadly force.
Seeing this, the other orcs also joined in attacking the same spot.
The lizard, in pain, struggled frantically, whipping its tail, but the beastmen held it back with all their might. With their combined efforts, the lizard gradually lost its strength and collapsed to the ground.
The orcs cheered. Sen walked towards Ruan Mianmian and asked with concern, "Are you injured?"
Ruan Mianmian shook her head, her eyes full of excitement, "Thanks to you all, we found so many useful herbs."
“There are no orcs living around here, so there are a lot of strange beasts. We need to be vigilant at all times,” Sen said, looking at the orcs.
Everyone nodded in agreement, especially Ruan Mianmian, who had been greatly amazed these past few days.
I thought there were plenty of animals on the plains, but after seeing this place, it's like comparing a small fry to a big fish.
Especially in areas not marked by orcs, all sorts of wild beasts may exist, so extra caution is needed.
"Sen, is it safe to eat this lizard?" Ruan Mianmian asked, looking at the lizard, which was about the size of a heavy truck.
"You mean this thorny beast? It's edible. I've eaten it before; the meat is very tender," Sen said, glancing at the lizard.
Ruan Mianmian secretly memorized the names of the animals here, and then with a wave of her hand, the lizard disappeared again.
She didn't manage to get anything else on this trip, but food already takes up a tenth of her storage space. To put it bluntly, this amount of meat could feed her tribe for two months!
