Chapter 994 - 993, Feels Great
He nodded with a smile and patted the large package on his back: "This is some food prepared by our people for the priest. Now Swordfish Island lacks food, and during the days I’m not there, I don’t know if the priest has had enough to eat."
Ji Nuan smiled: "You can rest assured about that. Although food is scarce on Swordfish Island, no one will starve the priests."
Gui Zhuangzhuang scratched his head upon hearing this and let out an embarrassed chuckle.
Indeed, the status of a priest in the Aquatic Clan is quite high.
When the Watson Tribe travels, they bring only easy-to-pack essentials, so the people simply packed up their portable stoves.
Then, after extinguishing the Fire Seed, everyone shouldered their belongings, ready to set off.
Gui Zhuangzhuang’s package was handed over to Ying Yan’s three younger brothers, so they could swap it among themselves when they got tired.
And Gui Zhuangzhuang himself transformed into a sea turtle the size of an orc’s chest.
He was placed in a relatively shallow basket, carried by Ying Da who flew in front leading the way.
For Gui Zhuangzhuang, experiencing flying for the first time, his four paws trembled slightly, and he couldn’t help but admit, the sensation was quite exhilarating.
On the journey flying to Swordfish Island, the seas they passed over were desolate, with many sea beast corpses floating on the surface.
The area emitted a foul odor, causing Ji Nuan to deeply furrow her brow.
If these sea beast corpses aren’t dealt with promptly, it can easily cause diseases among the Aquatic Clan living in the sea.
But thinking about the current situation of the Aquatic Clan, Ji Nuan could only sigh.
When they can’t even secure enough food, what’s there to say about environmental management?
After flying all morning, when it was time for lunch, the group of orcs finally arrived at Swordfish Island.
Swordfish Island, truly a medium-sized Aquatic Tribe, was more than three times the size of Turtle Island.
Many orcs patrolled around the island, each with a rather grim expression.
The orcs of the Watson Tribe did not hide their flight, the flapping sound of their wings quickly caught the attention of the patrolling orcs.
A howl came from somewhere, and suddenly, Swordfish Island burst into activity.
From the sky above, the originally calm island now teemed with numerous orcs, all wearing expressions of tension.
Ji Nuan curiously looked at Gui Zhuangzhuang: "Chief Zhuangzhuang, what’s with the orcs on Swordfish Island? They all seem quite fierce."
Gui Zhuangzhuang shook his head, his tone filled with confusion: "I don’t know. Everything was fine when I left. Could it be that there’s no food left on the island?"
Ji Nuan frowned, questioning if a lack of food could make the orcs this aggressive?
Xiu Yan, taking the lead, raised his robust arm, and the orcs of the Watson Tribe flapped their wings and hovered in the air, no longer approaching Swordfish Island.
"Chief Zhuangzhuang, in this situation, I’m afraid we can’t land on the island."
Ji Nuan looked down at Swordfish Island, prepared for battle.
Gui Zhuangzhuang stuck his head out of the basket: "Brothers of Swordfish Tribe, I am Chief Zhuangzhuang of Tortoise Tribe, please request the presence of the Lord Priest from your Strong Combat Tribe and our Tortoise Tribe."
Hearing Gui Zhuangzhuang’s words, the orcs on the island were startled, then looked at each other.
One robust orc in the middle of the island furrowed his brow and looked towards the sky where the sea turtle was being carried in a strange thing.
