I've been transported to the orc continent.

Chapter 338 Departure

As soon as the sun rose in the morning, Bai Ling and her three companions were about to head out.

The other clansmen who were not participating in the event gave Bai Ling and her three companions a few words of advice, and even handed Bai Ling a small jar the size of a palm.

"Ling, this is a medicinal powder I made. If anyone gets injured, just sprinkle this powder on the wound."

Orcs often fight wild beasts when they hunt, and they are frequently injured. Zhao is the tribe's doctor, and every time the hunting team goes out to hunt, they get medicine powder from Zhao to treat their injuries.

Bai Ling said, "Uncle Zhao, we've already brought the medicine powder."

Zhao's partner said, "You should bring more medicine powder. It won't hurt. If you don't use it all, you can bring it back."

The other clansmen also agreed with Bai Ling's suggestion, so Bai Ling had no choice but to accept the jar of medicine powder.

Zhao then said to Yue, "Yue, you are the best hunter. When you hunt, take good care of Chen and Xiao. Safety is the most important thing. The number of prey is not so important."

Among the tribespeople who came to the central tribe, Zhao was the oldest, and he temporarily took on the responsibility of "patriarch." Now that the four young people were going out hunting, he naturally had to give them a few more words of advice.

Yue agreed: "I will take good care of them."

Xiao chuckled from the side, "Uncle Zhao, don't worry, we're all sensible people, we know what to do."

Zhao: "Okay, then you can set off now. Be careful on the road."

The central tribe's square was already bustling with activity, as young orcs stood in twos and threes, chatting amongst themselves.

Upon seeing Bai Ling and his group of four arrive, all eyes turned to them. While planting wheat, Bai Ling and Yue had already visited all the tribes, teaching the beastmen how to smelt iron, fire kilns, make hemp thread, and cultivate new fields, making many friends along the way.

The young orc who was familiar with the four waved to them and said, "Moon, this way."

"Ling, you've arrived."

"Xiao, Chen, we're here."

…………

Bai Ling and his companions walked into the crowd and quickly became the center of attention. Many beastmen came up to greet them, and some even came over, stared at the bow and arrow behind Yue for a moment, and then asked if they could take a look at Yue's bow and arrow.

The Moon Bow and Arrow were specially made by Bai Ling, taking more than two years to complete. They are larger, heavier, and have a greater draw weight than ordinary bows and arrows, allowing them to shoot arrows farther.

Not only the bow and arrows, but also the arrows in the moon quiver were specially made by Bai Ling.

Yue took down her bow and arrows and said, "Of course."

An orc took the bow and arrow from Yue and shouted, "You all step back, or I won't be responsible if the bowstring punctures you."

The orcs around him chuckled and took two steps back, then the orc assumed a bow-drawing stance.

Bai Ling has already taught the orcs of the central tribe how to make bows and arrows. They also use bows and arrows when hunting. This orc also carries a bow on his back, and his posture when drawing the bow is quite skillful.

He strained with all his might, his face turning red, but he still couldn't fully draw the bow of the moon.

The Moon's bow was passed from hand to hand among the young orcs. Only one young orc was able to draw the bow, but he only managed to hold it for two or three breaths before releasing the string.

Since Yue can use this bow and arrow, she can naturally use it to hunt. Using this bow and arrow to hunt means that Yue can draw the bow and arrow for a long time.

The young beastmen looked at Yue with admiration. Beastmen admired strength, and Yue's ability to draw the bow and hunt with it was worthy of their respect.

*

The young orcs were going to hunt in a place quite far from the tribe. This time, not only large orcs, but also many small orcs were going.

The large beastmen found a place to transform into their beast forms, and Bai Ling was no exception. He transformed into his beast form behind a large tree and then strolled to the moon.

A magnificent lion stopped before the beautiful moon, lowered its head, and made a "gurgling" sound.

Yue reached out and pinched the lion's ear, then whispered in its ear, "You are the most beautiful."

Among all the beastmen present—lions, tigers, leopards, deer, and oxen—Bai Ling was neither the biggest nor the most valiant, but in Yue's eyes, he was the most handsome.

A triumphant and proud smile appeared in the lion's black eyes. It lowered its head even further, rubbed against the moon, and made a "gurgling" sound in its throat. Then it bent its four legs and lay down on the ground.

Yue stroked the lion's mane a couple more times, then climbed onto the lion's body.

The lion's back was very broad, and Yue found a suitable spot to sit down, gripping the mane tightly with both hands.

Not far from the large lion was a white wolf with smooth fur. Xiao was already sitting on Bai Ling's back, its hands tightly gripping Bai Ling's fur.

All the orcs were already seated. A tiger was the first to roar, and the other orcs who had transformed into their beast forms followed suit.

The golden sunlight shone on them, and even the people on their backs were bathed in a golden glow.

A lithe tiger ran at the front, followed by a large group of beastmen who had transformed into animal forms, all running towards the sun.

*

Hunting with so many orcs together wouldn't work, so the orcs were divided into several groups, each group choosing a direction. In the end, the group that caught the most prey would win.

Yue and Xiao Fen were in the same group. They ran southwest, and their figures were quickly swallowed up by the tall grass. Only after Yue's figure disappeared did Bai Ling and the other beastmen run towards the river.

Among the young orcs who came, there were also those who, like Bai Ling, did not participate in the hunting. They were responsible for various logistical tasks. These people were very familiar with the tribe's territory and knew where the most suitable place to set up camp was.

There was a flat area by the river, and a small forest nearby, making it convenient to fetch water or gather firewood.

It was still early, and the hunters probably wouldn't be back until the afternoon, so they weren't in a hurry to fetch water or gather firewood. After discussing it, they split into two teams: one team went to collect edible wild vegetables and fruits, and the other team went to the river to fish.

Bai Ling was assigned to the collection team, and he wanted to see if there were any useful plants in the central tribe.

The beastmen carried baskets on their backs and held wooden sticks in their hands, tapping and knocking in the grass as they gathered usable plants.

It was already autumn, and wild vegetables were no longer easy to gather, but there were plenty of wild fruits and melons. Bai Ling and his companions found a patch of winter melons, each one quite large. The beastmen picked all the winter melons, along with some wild fruits, and carefully placed them in their baskets.
