Chapter 761 - 760, All in _1
Saying this, he walked over to a tree not far away, carefully searched the trunk, and then pointed at a very hidden scratch, saying, "Chief, look, this is the mark I left after scouting."
Nakula glanced at it and nodded, "Did you hear about their plans afterwards, where they are going to?"
The Orc paused, looking puzzled. "One thing is very strange, they said they are to take Namila and a few other tribesmen to Chief Meng Zhuo, but as we just saw, the forest of the Monte Tribe has been surrounded by that strange white smoke, they can’t get through at all."
Nakula gave it some thought and suddenly turned to the Orc, "Did you say Shaman Ji Nuan is also there?"
The Orc nodded, "Yes, even Kun is there."
Nakula’s face turned quite unpleasant, "In that case, that white fog..."
He sighed, "It may be the smoke concocted by that Shaman to kill the Stinger Bugs. Not even birds or beasts can escape it, let alone the Stinger Bugs."
"So, are you saying that they are taking Namila and the rest to the Monte Tribe?"
Nakula gazed at the thinning white fog in the distance. "Most likely, judging from the temperature after the extinguishing of the fire, they left quite a while ago. It’s no use even if we go now."
"What about the tribesmen and Namila?" The Orcs looked at Nakula.
"Set up camp here for now. Once the white smoke disperses, we’ll make a trip to the Monte Tribe."
On the other side, the Watson Tribe had arrived at the familiar Monte Tribe Station. Looking at the formerly bustling station that was now in complete disarray with tents leaning every which way, the Orcs all furrowed their brows.
The ground was covered with Stinger Bug bodies, crunching underneath their feet. It was the sound of insect bodies being crushed. Not just Ji Nuan, but even the surrounding Orcs couldn’t help but get goosebumps. "Ah, my dear Amu, these things are disgusting! Thank gods I’m wearing beast skin shoes. If these things got stuck to my feet, I wouldn’t be able to eat for days."
"Yeah, right. If you didn’t get food, I bet you’d still eat even if you had to sit in a bush that some critter just took a dump in," an Orc instantly retorted.
"You all be careful, watch out for the Stinger Bugs under your feet. If you see a live one, kill it immediately. Don’t take off your beast skin clothes. We don’t know if any Stinger Bugs were missed," Ji Nuan cautioned.
The Orcs nodded earnestly. Sure enough, they found several severely injured Stinger Bugs struggling to hold on. Each of them flexed their thin legs, trying to fly again, but unfortunately, they had no chance.
"Meng Tai, how far is it to your cave?" Ya Li turned his head and asked Meng Tai.
Meng Tai pointed to a cliff on the left. "The cave is over there. We’ll be there after a little more walking."
After bypassing a small patch of trees, a cliff face appeared before the group of Orcs. There were five caves in the cliff, and now only the one in the middle was blocked by a large boulder.
"There it is, my father and the rest should be in there," Meng Tai said excitedly.
"Meng Tai, is that you?" A voice came from behind the boulder, Chief Meng Zhuo’s voice. This reassured Ji Nuan and the others. Judging by the robust voice, it seemed like everyone was alright.
