Chapter 170 - 147: The Tortoise and the Hare Race
The beastmen who had arrived at the oasis were confronting Noen and his companions.
They had elongated rabbit-ears and slender figures, with fur in shades of brown or grey, their underbellies turning white and a distinct orange-brown patch on their throats, holding bone spears in their hands, warily watching Noen.
"This is our water source!"
The leading rabbit-eared beastman shouted.
"Stop, we mean no harm,"
Noen spoke.
After exchanging glances, the rabbit-eared beastmen slowly lowered their bone spears.
"Why have you Three-eyed Ape People come here? Don’t you call this place the Path of Death?"
The leader of the rabbit-eared beastmen inquired.
As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily appraised the most robust among them, Baird.
Perhaps... he could become an ally?
