Chapter 1392: Chapter 1389: Poop Everywhere
Ji Bujie looked at Xiu Yan in confusion: "So, why is the Black Mountain Tribe invading the Ancient Wood Forest? This place seems great~"
"Let’s go in and take a look." Xiu Yan bent down to pick up Ji Nuan.
"I can walk by myself, you know?" Ji Nuan actually wanted to run freely across the plains.
But Xiu Yan’s strong arms held her tightly in his embrace: "Honghong’s reaction just now was very unusual. Let’s first see the situation here; maybe it’s not as simple as we think."
Upon hearing this, Ji Nuan glanced back at Honghong, who was hiding far away, and nodded: "Alright, Brother Xiu Yan, you be careful too."
The black land stretched infinitely, with the shorter grasses reaching as high as Xiu Yan’s calves, and the taller ones even reaching his chest. If Ji Nuan got down, she would probably be lost in it.
Even sitting on Xiu Yan’s shoulders, she had to occasionally push aside the grass in front of her to see the road clearly.
"Brother Xiu Yan, let’s fly up. Otherwise, who knows when we’ll reach where we’re going?" Her arms and legs were already covered with many small cuts from the grass.
Finally, Xiu Yan took out a cloak and wrapped it around her to spare Ji Nuan from such torment.
"There’s no forest here; could it be that the whole continent is just plains?"
At this, Ji Nuan finally noticed something amiss. This plain was too vast, with no end in sight.
And after walking for such a long time, they finally understood why Honghong was reluctant to come up; this grassland was heaven for Giggle Beasts and Gagabeasts.
So there was their excrement everywhere. Even Xiu Yan, wearing beast-skin boots, looked a bit displeased stepping on it, let alone Honghong, who was always swimming in the water.
"Where do the orcs of the Black Mountain Range live? If the territory of these mountains is all plains like this, they can’t possibly live in caves."
Ji Nuan furrowed her brows.
Xiu Yan nodded: "Unless they are like us, able to build houses to live in."
But that possibility seemed too small.
"Let’s head towards Stone Field; maybe we’ll come across some orc tribes."
At this, Xiu Yan also couldn’t stand walking through the dung-filled grass any longer. His wings unfolded from behind, and with a flap, he took to the skies.
The scene from the air confirmed for Ji Nuan and Xiu Yan that this was indeed a continent of nothing but plains.
Perhaps there once were mountain ranges where they could carve out caves to live, but now with the mountains collapsed, the orcs truly had no place to stay.
There’s not much time until the cold season. Without a sheltered residence or enough food, the number of orcs left on this continent after the cold season is really an unknown.
Ji Nuan also felt their predicament.
The two beasts flew for two and a half days, only encountering a hunting party of orcs by noon on the third day.
The orcs of the hunting team were very surprised to see them.
For some reason, apart from the West Continent where Ji Nuan and the others lived, it was rare to see flying orcs on the other continents.
"Which tribe of orcs do you belong to?"
Perhaps due to tensions between the two mountain ranges, these orcs were very cautious of unfamiliar orcs.
Their gaze was not very friendly either.
