Chapter 1002 - 1001, Lost All Face as a Beast
The Whale Priest and Python Priest could only give a wry smile.
They too had relaxed their guard after obtaining the antidote for the poisoned seawater, not hurrying to investigate the two tribes responsible for the poisoning.
But now, they lament the consequences that had arisen.
It was truly a loss of face for the beasts.
"You Aquatic Tribe should discuss this matter among yourselves, but should we now talk about what kind of food you would like?" Ji Nuan sat on the beast skin mat with her head tilted, her eyes calm, showing no sign of her previous confrontational demeanor.
Yet, inside the cave, none of the orcs underestimated this female Shaman, even the Python Priest adjusted his gaze and regarded the female Shaman as an equal.
Setting aside his prejudices, the Python Priest became unusually easy to talk to.
"Shaman Ji Nuan, if we were to exchange, which food could be traded for the most with the least of our sea goods?"
The Python Priest’s usually somber face now revealed a trace of kindness, deeply shocking the young orc standing by his side.
Ji Nuan was receptive to the Python Priest’s efforts to mend relations, knowing that having more friends means more paths to follow.
She thought carefully about the most abundant food in the tribe...
"Stinky Fruit," a cool voice rang in Ji Nuan’s ear.
Xiu Yan’s remark indeed reminded Ji Nuan.
Indeed, the most abundant food among the sub-tribes now was the Stinky Fruit.
The Nia Forest had a large Stinky Fruit Forest, and because of the presence of many Sharp Teeth Beasts, almost no tribe’s orc dared venture there.
Thus, it had become a paradise for both the Stinky Fruit Tree and the Sharp Teeth Beast.
However, the Sharp Teeth Beasts only ate fresh Stinky Fruits.
Once the Stinky Fruits became powdery, they wouldn’t give them another glance.
Therefore, many overripe Stinky Fruits still lay fallen on the ground of that Stinky Fruit Forest.
It was simply too much for the sub-tribes to consume.
Ji Nuan gave Xiu Yan a wide smile and then turned her head to the Python Priest, "There indeed is a type of food that is currently abundant in our tribe. If we are to exchange, we can give you ten baskets of this food for every basket of sea goods."
The Python Priest and Whale Priest exchanged glances, both seeing ecstasy in each other’s eyes.
As for them, sea goods were as abundant as could be, with the vast Swordfish Island storing an unknown quantity.
The long-standing food issue was resolved, and the Whale Priest felt as if a huge burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
"Shaman Ji Nuan, do you have this type of food with you, and could we take a look at it?"
"Haha, that is one of the main foods of our Watson Tribe, of course we brought it."
Since a trade was to be made, it was, of course, necessary to let the Aquatic Tribe know the charm of the Stinky Fruit powder.
She stood up, her bright eyes full of sincerity, "Not only to look, today I will have our people prepare this food for you all to taste."
After speaking, she walked out with Xiu Yan.
The orcs inside the cave exchanged glances and seeing the Whale Priest and Python Priest moving out, followed them.
Outside the cave, the orcs of the Watson Tribe had already set up simple stone stoves under Ji Nuan’s instructions, placing pots from the baskets on them.
