Chapter 341 Request for an Audience
During this trip to the Eastern tribes, Zhonghe limited the number of orcs he led to avoid misunderstandings and suspicions.
Including the two of them, there were only ten ape-beastmen traveling together.
The reason there were only ten orcs was that the primary purpose of the trip was to explain and seek peace with the other side.
They brought quite a lot of items this time; apart from the two of them, everyone else in the group brought something.
It must be said that the orcs of the gorilla tribe are indeed much more intelligent than other tribes, and even have quite human-like characteristics!
At this moment, they had mastered the technique of using plant roots to bind various items to themselves to enhance their stability, thus freeing their hands during long journeys and making their movements more convenient and free.
On this trip, they brought a large number of wild eggs and plump pheasants, as well as many different kinds of animals and precious salt.
I brought so much stuff in the hope that the Eastern tribes would forgive their past wrongdoings after witnessing these delicious foods and rare salt.
If we trace back to the source and delve deeper into what happened before, it actually has little to do with the central government; it was all done privately by the tribe's leaders.
The group of orcs traveled for about half a day before arriving at the lake where the three ape-like orcs had been before. The three orcs who had come out this time were also among them.
An pointed to the spot where they had been that day and described the situation in detail. This made Zhong Heshi even more certain that this trip to the Eastern tribes was absolutely necessary.
When they were traveling and had not gone far from the tribal valley, the orcs of the eastern tribes discovered their tracks. After observing from multiple angles, Jin sent someone back to the tribe to report to the chief, while he himself led his people to continue observing from the outside.
At this moment, everyone in the tribe was busy with their own tasks. The construction team was still repairing the tribe's defenses. Ruan Mianmian was teaching the little beastmen how to water the plants and herbs.
The females were drying meat, while the remaining males were exercising.
As Guang ran into the valley to report to Ruan Mianmian that more gorilla-like beastmen had arrived, Sen had already suddenly transformed into his beast form and flown away.
Guang was extremely envious as he watched Sen Fei leave. However, he knew that not all beastmen could revert to their ancestral form, and he also knew that his strength was insufficient, so he could only secretly admire him.
"By the way, leader, it seems that the other side has a small number of people this time, and they brought something with them."
When the orcs in the tribe heard that the gorilla orcs had returned to their territory, they were preparing for battle when they suddenly heard Guang say this.
After thinking for a moment, Zhi said, "Perhaps they know that Sen has reverted to his ancestral ways, so they are afraid and have come to sue for peace."
Ruan Mianmian didn't care about any of that. If they really dared to invade, then this time she would make sure they never returned.
Although they knew that not many ape-orcs would come, the tribe still increased its vigilance.
The little beastman and the female returned to the cave first, protected by the elephant beastman.
One of the little orcs angrily spat out a mouthful of water, "I've advanced too! Now I have superpowers, and I'm going to protect the tribe!"
Buji stretched out his trunk and rolled him into the cave, then laughed and said, "With your little trickle of water, who are you going to spit on? You'll get choked before you even have a chance to poke yourself. Just stay put!"
This time, the collective abilities of the orcs in the tribe have increased significantly, and some of the younger orcs even developed special abilities ahead of schedule because of their good aptitude.
However, the strength of a superpower is determined by the strength of one's own abilities. Since these little beastmen are relatively weak, their superpowers are very small.
Sen flew close to the gorilla-orc group and circled for a while. He confirmed that they were not in an aggressive posture, but were just standing there cautiously, carrying a lot of things on their backs.
Sen transformed back into human form and landed. His tall figure appeared in front of the gorilla beastmen, causing them to involuntarily take a few steps back.
Such pressure was indeed incomparable to that of ordinary orcs; even Zhong felt a faint sense of fear at this moment.
Zhonghe quickly stepped forward and said respectfully, "Greetings, we have come here with sincere intentions to seek peace." He then gestured for the orcs behind him to display the wild eggs, pheasants, and other items they had brought.
Sen glanced at the items and said expressionlessly, "The offense you committed before cannot be made up for with these."
At this moment, the other patrolling orcs from the tribe also gathered around.
One of the gorilla-orcs said anxiously, "We know we were wrong. We will never listen to Da's instigation again. These supplies are just a token of our appreciation, and they also include our tribe's most precious salt."
Mori glanced expressionlessly at the person opposite him, only to see that Zhong looked nervous. He quickly stepped forward and began to explain at a rapid pace: "Respected strongman, please listen to me! The last time Da brought people here, that was entirely his own private action and had nothing to do with me! I have never given such an order, really! Please believe me..." As Zhong spoke, he kept glancing at Mori's reaction out of the corner of his eye.
However, at this moment, Sen merely narrowed his eyes slightly, staring intently at Zhong, making it impossible to discern what he was thinking.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene became unusually heavy, as if even the air itself had frozen.
In the midst of this suffocating silence, a figure suddenly emerged from the crowd. Everyone looked closely and realized it was Shi.
Shi walked straight up to Sen with his head held high and chest out, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Hello, I am Shi, a shaman from the gorilla tribe. I have come to your tribe today mainly because I have heard that you have a highly respected shaman here, and I admire him greatly. So I have come to pay my respects. I wonder if it would be convenient for us to meet?" After speaking, Shi waited quietly for Sen's reply.
Kun happened to be in the patrol team this time. When Sen saw him, he said, "In that case, Kun should go back to the tribe first and ask the high shaman if he is willing to meet you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kun spread his wings and flew towards the tribe as fast as lightning.
Meanwhile, Zhonghe, who remained in place, curiously observed the tribe composed of various orc races.
They wondered to themselves: what kind of powerful orc could gather all these individuals with such different personalities and varying strengths together? What surprised them even more was that the orc named Sen was so powerful that they couldn't even tell what his true beast form was.
Kun returned to the tribe and conveyed Zhi's request to come and see him. Upon hearing this, Zhi smiled and said, "I haven't seen a shaman from another tribe in a long time. Since he wants to see me, then come on over!"
Upon hearing this, Kun hurriedly flew away again.
