NFBE The departure in Chapter 348
The departure in Chapter 348
After seeing Ruan Mianmian leave, he worshipped in the direction she had gone.
No wonder the High Priest emphasized that they should serve and follow her to the death, and no wonder that such powerful orcs accompanied her. It turns out that she was their faith!
"Great Shaman, did you always know she was 'he'?" Shi asked.
Zhi glanced at Shi and said, "No, it's just that the clues passed down through generations told me she was a goddess. And some things made me decide to follow her. But I never expected that my faith was right beside me." Zhi smiled as she looked at Shi.
"Great Shaman, may I come to your tribe?" Shi suddenly asked.
"What?" Zhi was suddenly surprised. Was this what he thought it meant?
“I didn’t know before, so I could stay in the gorilla tribe forever. But now that I know, I want to follow my faith to the death. You can’t stop me from doing so!”
Upon hearing this, Zhi laughed. "I didn't stop you, but what is your status in our tribe? And if you leave, do you think the orcs of the gorilla tribe will let you go?"
Shi said firmly, "I don't care what identity I use or what I do, as long as I can stay in the tribe where the goddess is. As for the gorilla tribe, I will negotiate with them myself."
Seeing his determination, Zhi nodded slightly, "Alright then, but you have to take care of the gorilla tribe first." After receiving permission, Shi decided to return to the gorilla tribe immediately.
However, he did not forget the reason for his trip.
“Great Shaman, since she is here, could you help resolve the problems of the gorilla tribe? No babies have been born in the tribe for a year, especially since the tribal chief has no children, which is very detrimental to the development of the tribe.”
Zhi fell into deep thought upon hearing this. They were just wizards, essentially a link between the Beast World and the Beast God.
Now that the gods have descended upon the beast world, many things have changed.
"I can't promise you anything, but if you're not in a hurry, you can stay here tonight. After dinner tonight, you can ask the chief for help."
Upon hearing this, Shi nodded. If he could find a way to make the leader of the gorilla tribe give birth to his own cub, then the gorilla tribe would have a successor, and he could retire unscathed.
As night fell, a campfire lit up the entire tribe. Yu and the others were busy roasting meat.
Now that summer has arrived, resources are becoming more abundant, and the beastmen have more and more food to eat.
Now, the tribe doesn't just roast animal meat anymore; they also prepare other things. For example, roasted chicken, beggar's chicken, boiled eggs…
Anyway, the food wasn't limited to roasted meat, which made the other two orcs from the Eastern Tribe drool with envy.
Just then, Ruan Mianmian walked over. She looked at the group of people drooling and couldn't help but smile.
"If you like these foods, please eat them as much as you like." Upon hearing this, Shi and the others quickly thanked them. Then they began to wolf down their food.
Zhi, watching from the side, had a sudden thought. He realized that perhaps Ruan Mianmian could solve the ape tribe's reproduction problem. So he spoke up, "Chief, Shi has brought trouble to the ape tribe. Do you have any solutions?"
After thinking for a moment, Ruan Mianmian said, "Although I cannot directly intervene in matters of reproduction, I know some herbs that can improve physical condition and increase the chances of getting pregnant. Secondly, if the chief of the gorilla tribe needs an heir, I do have some medicine that can help him. However, this medicine is very rare, and he is not a member of our tribe, so it depends on what he offers in exchange."
Upon hearing this, he was overjoyed, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope. The two orcs who had come with him were also filled with anticipation.
That evening, everyone gathered around the campfire to enjoy the delicious food. Meanwhile, Ruan Mianmian quietly went to the side and searched the system shop, hoping to find that magical herb that could not only solve the problems of the ape tribe but also bring more life to this beast world.
As expected, the system did indeed possess such herbs. However, they were not from this era. Ruan Mianmian could purchase them through the system, but they were expensive.
Now that she knew about the herb, she wasn't worried anymore. As for the pregnancy issue, she had discovered a fertility pill when exchanging pills on the exchange platform. As the name suggests, it could grant pregnancy. Therefore, Ruan Mianmian wasn't worried at all; now it was just a matter of what price the gorilla tribe was willing to pay.
The next day, Shi hurriedly returned to the tribe with the two orcs. He wanted to tell Zhong the news and also inform him of his impending departure.
I was very happy to see them return. I immediately asked them about the outcome of their trip.
"Chief, the chief of the Eastern tribe said that there is indeed a herb that can increase the chances of females conceiving and enhance their ability to get pregnant. In addition, I told that lord about your situation, and that lord said that there is a medicine that can make females pregnant, but the medicine is very precious. What can you offer in exchange?"
Zhong was initially quite happy, but after hearing what Shi said later, he expressed doubt.
In the Orcish Continent, there has never been a case of taking herbs that could directly make an Orc pregnant. Could that leader of the Eastern Tribe be a fraud?
When L shared her doubts with Shi, she was immediately refuted by Shi.
Shi blushed and argued, "Chief, I have personally witnessed the prosperity of the Eastern tribes. They have many wondrous things that we have never seen before. That chief certainly wouldn't lie."
Zhong frowned and paced back and forth. "Even so, this medicine is so miraculous. What can we offer in exchange for it? We're afraid they wouldn't even want our tribe's most precious possessions."
After a moment's thought, Shi said, "Chief, I dare say that if that great man can't do something in this Beast World, then no beastman can. If we want our tribe to survive, we can only rely on that great man!"
After finishing speaking, Shi continued, "By the way, I will be stepping down from my position as the tribe's shaman starting today. I will be going to the Eastern tribe to follow their leader. Please grant me passage, Chief."
Zhong was stunned upon hearing this. "Shi, what did you say? You're going to the Eastern Tribe? How could you have such a thought in just two days? Did some beastman or something in the tribe upset you?"
Shi shook his head and said, "No, I'm also a gorilla beastman. Why would I leave my tribe if there weren't special circumstances? It's just that I only realized yesterday that my faith is right there. For our tribe, for my own faith, I will follow her!"
Zhong was very puzzled. Why was there nothing wrong the last time he went, but a problem was found this time?
Shi's attitude was very firm, and he swore to the Beast God that he would never be an enemy of the Eastern tribes.
At the same time, he expressed his determination to the leader of the gorilla tribe, saying that he was willing to pay any price to leave.
Although the leader was reluctant, seeing the determination in his eyes, he finally agreed.
He hadn't yet figured out what to offer in exchange, but he thought that perhaps he could go and act as an inside agent to help the tribe.
So, Shi returned to the Zhi tribe with only a few belongings.
