Green Monster Epic

Chapter 120: Encountering Danger

"Flower Snake, it's your turn to lead the team out hunting today, right? Try to bring back more prey. Yesterday, that bastard Dasha led the team out and only managed to hunt a 50-odd pound goat. There was nothing else. It seems he just calculated that after completing the chieftain's task, he wouldn't bother looking for more prey."

Tea Blossom recovered quickly. Not two days after Bush was born, she started working again. Although Allen wouldn't let her do heavy work, Tea Blossom could still handle the daily task of assigning tasks to the tribe members.

"Okay, don't worry. I'll see if I can hunt you an otter to help stimulate lactation."

Flower Snake nodded, glanced at Bush in Tea Blossom's arms, and a gentle expression flashed across his face. He was also a father now, but his firstborn wasn't a male but a female. Other than that, everything was wonderful. After having his own child, even a cold-blooded hobgoblin, although the males hadn't completely come around, when they held a soft little one in their arms, the bond of bloodline stirred in their hearts, and they couldn't help but feel affection for the little one.

Not to mention, Flower Snake also adopted a cute little girl he found in the wild, the sensible and pleasing Chloe.

"That would be great."

Tea Blossom looked delighted. This wasn't her first birth, but the previous two children didn't survive, so she poured more love into this child, wanting to give the best to the little one who had grown in her belly for ten months.

"I'm off."

After receiving the hunting team's rations for the day, Flower Snake greeted Tea Blossom and hurried off to gather his team.

There are actually many animals living on the Greenwild Plains, but most of them are too agile or too powerful. In the past, the Greenwild Tribe members either couldn't catch up with the prey or didn't dare to provoke them, so they could only bully the weaker creatures.

Most of the previous leaders of the Greenwild Tribe were advanced warriors. Claw Crack, whom Allen challenged, could be said to be the weakest of all the past chieftains, not even having advanced. This meant that the Greenwild Tribe at that time was limited by its strength, its territory was compressed, and they didn't dare to provoke powerful prey, so the tribe members lived a miserable life.

Now, with Allen as the chieftain, the tribe's strength has greatly improved, and with the rise of young leaders like Flower Snake and Ah Xiao, they now have more possibilities for their hunting targets. In previous years, dozens of gregarious wild bulls were unattainable prey for the Greenwild Tribe. A single wild bull might only have the strength of a Level 7 warrior, but they were united against outsiders. Whenever an enemy tried to hunt them, they would often attack in groups, making the hunters who had ideas about them pay a bloody price with their sharp horns and sturdy hooves.

Of course, gregarious animals like wild bulls could not be supported by the barren land where the Greenwild Tribe used to be. Only the lush grasslands growing along the Muddywater Creek could support such a large group of herbivores.

However, unless Allen personally led the team, the Greenwild hunting team, a small team of 5-6 people, would not provoke these creatures. Instead, they would look for antelopes, goats, and other easier-to-deal-with animals that came to the Muddywater Creek to drink, as their hunting targets.

Flower Snake's hunting team always had good harvests. This was related to Flower Snake's style as a speed-type warrior. Even Allen might not be stronger than Flower Snake in this regard, after all, most wild creatures rely on speed to escape predators. In the Greenwild Tribe, without ranged classes, relying solely on javelins to try their luck or chasing prey with their two big feet were both inefficient hunting activities.

The figure of a crested eagle flashed overhead. This kind of guy who specializes in following the wild natives in the sky and picking up scraps is the most annoying, but there is nothing you can do about it.

"Captain, which way are we going today?"

Under Chieftain Allen's strong request, the tribe members should not only follow the strong, but also learn and ask more questions, in order to train their eloquence and brains. It must be said that after the tribe members started talking more, their original dull and cute appearance also had a bit of agility. According to Philip's explanation to Allen, the less you use your brain, the more stupid it becomes. Only when you use it will it become smart.

Although Allen knew in his heart that this was at least a bit of an exaggeration, he didn't want the tribe members to have to think for a long time before understanding what everyone was saying, so he followed Philip's suggestion and let the tribe members communicate more with others.

"Yesterday Captain Dasha and his team went south, so let's go east today."

Flower Snake didn't actually have a plan. The direction he chose was always based on his mood. Anyway, if they really encountered prey, with him around, it would mostly be impossible for it to escape, unless the prey was faster than him.

"Oh."

After receiving the accurate direction, the five tribe members carried their respective weapons, each with two javelins stuck on their backs, and left the village, heading east.

More than a hundred miles east, there are two gnoll tribes. According to Allen, these two tribes have always been hostile to each other, and there are often fights. Although their strength is no weaker than the Greenwild Tribe, they have never been seen crossing the border and hunting on the Greenwild Tribe's territory. Therefore, the tribe members who had been traveling east for more than 40 miles in the morning were not too vigilant, looking around and shaking their heads, looking for traces of prey.

In fact, the area northeast along the Muddywater Creek is a good hunting ground, with lush vegetation and many birds and animals. However, now that the kobolds are constantly causing trouble for the Greenwild Tribe, Allen doesn't want to get entangled with these bastards, so he has temporarily abandoned this fertile land and restricted the tribe members from hunting in other directions.

"Flower Snake, it seems like there's movement in the valley ahead?"

A sharp-eyed hobgoblin pointed to the passage between the two hills ahead and shouted.

"Go!!!"

Flower Snake was overjoyed. Along the way, besides seeing 2-3 wild rabbits and 4-5 groundhogs, no other large animals had appeared. Flower Snake now looked down on these small things and didn't even have the desire to act. Therefore, after walking for more than 40 miles, they were still empty-handed and had gained nothing.

The goblins strode forward, running in the sunlight, kicking up dust along the way.

"That's not right, stop!!!"

Just as they were about to reach the valley, Flower Snake saw two figures flashing past halfway up the mountain at the valley entrance. His intuition warned him, as if there was something powerful ahead.

The crowd stopped immediately and looked at Flower Snake, not knowing why they had stopped.

"I'll go take a look first, you guys wait here!!!"

Flower Snake was skilled and bold. He drew a sword and a dagger, said cautiously, and then quickly rushed over.

Before long, Flower Snake's figure disappeared into the valley, but soon, his figure reappeared at the valley entrance, rushing back faster than before, while letting out a shrill warning: "Enemies!!!"

"Run!!!!!"
