Chapter 76 The Wolf Clan
Chapter 76 The Wolf Clan
Jin led several wolf-kin beastmen back to their territory. At that moment, the wolf king was talking to the wolf elders about the recent weather changes.
When they found out he had returned, they quickly called him into the cave.
"So, is it confirmed that there's a high shaman over there? Have they performed divination?"
As soon as the wolf king saw them enter, he quickly asked...
The wolf-orc first bowed to the wolf king and several elders, and then excitedly recounted his experiences in the eastern tribe of the valley.
"Following the wolf king's orders, we didn't go directly into the valley. Instead, we called them out to meet us at the entrance. As soon as we entered, we were stunned. The caves of the Eastern Tribe were unusually warm. There was a very special thing blocking the entrance to the cave. After opening it, we entered a warm cave. The temperature felt almost like spring."
After he finished speaking, he recalled the scene he had witnessed.
"By the way, their tribe does have a lot of small beastmen. Those small beastmen were lying on stones made of some kind of material, and they looked quite warm. We also met their tribe's high shaman, and he really was a high shaman. The divination tools he used were the same as those used by the high shaman of the large tribe we met at the trade fair before, and he seemed very powerful."
Upon realizing what Jinxiang knew, his expression tightened; the orcs held all the great shamans in natural respect.
Upon hearing this, the Wolf King felt relieved. In fact, he had never doubted the existence of a great shaman in the Eastern tribe before, because of the soft medical skills he had, he had no doubt about the authenticity of their existence as a great shaman.
My leg has basically recovered now, and the wound has healed in just a few days.
He had also spoken to the elders in the tribe about this matter. The elders said that some tribes have a tradition that produces special medicines, and they advised him to try to be on good terms with this Eastern tribe.
He also mentioned sending them in because the weather had been changing too quickly lately.
"What was the result of the divination? Did the high shaman have any message to convey?"
After thinking for a moment, Jin said, "The Great Shaman said that the weather this year is indeed abnormal, and the blizzard will come earlier than usual, so we should prepare in advance. He said that after this snowfall, there will be no snowfall for half a month, so we should use this half month to prepare, because after half a month, we will enter the extremely cold weather. By the way, the Great Shaman advised us to prepare more food, saying that we definitely won't be able to go out during the last winter month of this year."
Upon hearing this, the Wolf King and the elders exchanged glances, all seeing the heaviness in each other's eyes. It seemed this winter would be difficult.
"Okay, we understand. You can go and rest now. Tell our people to stay in the caves for the next few days to avoid the snowstorm, and then go out hunting once the snow stops. We only have half a month left."
Upon hearing the wolf king's words, Jin quickly agreed and left.
The heavy snow fell for three days, covering the entire world in white.
The orcs hid in the caves, waiting for the snow to stop.
However, the snow was more intense than they had imagined, and the wind howled without showing any sign of stopping.
The wolf king looked worriedly at the wind and snow outside, wondering how long the snow would continue.
At this moment, Miyue walked to his side. The wolf king looked at her belly and couldn't help but smile. Their child was growing.
"When will this snow stop? Didn't we go to the Eastern Tribe for divination? Didn't we get any results?" Miyue looked at the snow outside the cave with some worry.
"I asked, and they said that after this snowfall, there will be half a month to hunt, and then the extreme cold will begin. The Great Shaman said to prepare more food this winter, because we won't be able to go out in the last month of winter," the Wolf King said gently after hearing Miyue's words.
"Ah, so our little cubs will be born in the extreme cold. I'll have to prepare a few more animal hides to keep them warm. I wonder how many cubs will be born."
Miyue gently licked the hair on her belly, imagining the child in her arms.
Their wolf clan already had few cubs, and now that she finally had cubs, she had to protect them carefully.
It's too cold now, so it's better not to transform into human form. After all, animal fur is good for keeping warm.
Orcs have frozen to death before, and they need to learn from that experience.
“Yes, we definitely need to prepare more,” the Wolf King agreed. “The extreme cold is a challenge for us too. But don’t worry, I will protect you and your cub.”
Miyue leaned against the wolf king, feeling his warmth.
Just then, a gust of wind blew by, bringing a chill. Mi Yue couldn't help but shiver.
"Are you cold?" the wolf king asked with concern.
“A little,” Miyue answered truthfully.
"Then let's get closer." The wolf king used his beast form to create a wall around Miyue.
In the wolf king's embrace, Miyue felt incredibly safe. She gently closed her eyes, enjoying the tranquility.
