Chapter 137 The Elephant Clan's Plea for Help
The delicious food and drinks these past few days have made the orcs of the Eastern Tribe extremely happy. The chieftain told them to remember the taste of every dish and promised that if they encountered the same plants or things while traveling, they must bring them back, and the tribe would prepare even more delicious food for them.
So these past few days, the beastmen on patrol have been venturing into the surrounding forests, hoping to find a familiar scent.
Although the mountains were covered by heavy snow, their keen sense of smell allowed them to detect scents even from hundreds of meters away.
Today, the patrol team was led by the former wolf king, Yong. He first habitually scattered the scent of their wolf clan around the area, and then began to wander around.
Suddenly, a long, sharp moo came from afar.
Yong listened carefully for a moment, then suddenly ran in that direction.
The patrolmen behind him also ran with him toward the grassland, which was the direction of their original habitat.
After running for about ten minutes, Yong saw a herd of elephants not far ahead.
It's called a herd of elephants! But it's really just a mother elephant leading a dozen or so elephants searching for something.
Awooooo!
Yong's sudden cry gave Daman, the leader of the elephant tribe, hope, and she led her tribe toward Yong.
"Yong, please save my child!" Daman said to Yong.
Yong nodded and said, "What's going on? Shouldn't you be migrating to the warmer south?"
Daman said painfully, "Yes, but I was delayed for some reasons. Winter came without warning this year and there was a sudden heavy snowfall. I also suddenly gave birth to a baby, so I haven't left yet."
"Hmm, where's your baby?" Yong looked around curiously, but didn't see any sign of the baby elephant.
"Waaah..." When Daman heard Yong ask about her child, her already sad heart instantly broke down, and she burst into tears.
Her tears fell like pearls from a broken string.
"Yong, I can't find my child. Can you help me look for him?"
She looked up at him with tear-filled eyes and said anxiously.
When Yong heard Daman say that the child was missing, he immediately frowned and asked, "What happened? When did the child go missing?"
Daman answered between sobs, “Yesterday, while traveling, we encountered a blizzard. We were walking in the snow, and by the time I realized it, the cub was gone.” She then broke down in tears again.
Yong comforted him, "Don't worry, we will definitely find it."
Daman nodded gratefully.
Wolf pack members are orcs who are extremely sensitive to smells; once they remember a scent, they can track it down from hundreds of miles away.
So when Daman lost her child, the first thing she thought of was the wolf pack.
Unfortunately, she went to the wolf's habitat, where there were no longer any traces of wolves.
Just as she was helplessly starting to search around, the wolf king suddenly appeared.
The Wolf King brought ten orcs with him this time; apart from Meng, the rest were all wolves.
Their appearance surprised and puzzled Daman, but he was more excited than anything else.
She knew that wolves had an extraordinary sense of smell, which could help her find her lost child.
Yong instructed the orcs on patrol to remember the scent of the elephant herd and to search the surrounding area first.
Daman wandered around helplessly, unable to imagine how her cubs would survive the cold winter without her protection.
Most importantly, her cub is a defective cub abandoned by the Beast God.
She was born with snow-white skin, completely different from the skin of her elephant herd, a skin that would make it difficult for them to survive in the wild.
Snowflakes began to fall slowly from the sky, and the beastmen who had been searching everywhere returned one after another, saying that they had not found it.
Daman was extremely anxious; she didn't know what to do.
The elephant tribe is a united group. When their leader's cub went missing, they searched anxiously, but unfortunately, it has not been found yet.
"Chief, let's keep searching. It's going to snow soon, and the cubs can't withstand the cold," a beastman from the Elephant Clan said anxiously.
Daman knew this all too well, but after so long without any news, she had a bad feeling.
“No need to look anymore…” Daman gazed sadly into the distance, the snow falling even heavier now. “With this much snow, it’s probably… doomed.”
Upon hearing this, all the elephants silently lowered their heads. Although they were unwilling to accept this fact, they were helpless.
"Yong, take them to find the chief. The chief is a goddess, and we also have the great shaman. We're sure we can find the cubs." Meng couldn't help but speak up when he saw the elephant chief so sorrowful.
His words were like a beacon illuminating Yong's thoughts.
Yong suddenly remembered the goddess who was regarded as a deity and the powerful shaman in his tribe.
He excitedly said to Daman, “Daman, don’t worry, come back to our tribe with me. Our tribe has a goddess and a high priestess, they will surely be able to help you find your lost cub.”
After speaking, Yong's eyes shone with reverence and expectation as he looked towards the valley, as if it were the source of hope.
His heart was filled with reverence for his leader.
Upon hearing Yong's words, Daman, the leader of the elephant tribe, was instantly invigorated.
Her eyes shone with excitement as she replied expectantly, "Then please lead the way so we can reach your tribe as soon as possible!"
She pondered to herself, these orcs said that the great shaman could divine, and the goddess was a legendary being. Could there really be a goddess in this world?
If such a person really existed, how wonderful that would be!
However, the situation is urgent, with heavy snow falling, and the most important thing is to find the missing cubs as soon as possible.
Daman knew that time was of the essence and that there was no time to waste.
So she urged her people to quicken their pace and follow closely behind the brave wolf-beastmen.
On the grassland, a pack of wolves, an elephant, and a bear were seen running hard through the snow, their figures standing out against the vast white expanse.
The snowflakes that rose behind them danced like clouds, creating a beautiful scene.
But at this moment, no one was in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery. Everyone had only one goal in mind: to get to Yong's tribe as soon as possible to seek help in order to find the missing cub.
