Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family
Chapter 110 A terrible conjecture
Those dark shadows seemed to be frozen, standing there stupidly, not daring to move forward at all. Only then were everyone able to see their true faces - they were actually a group of hyena orcs!
Xiongbai squinted his eyes, but his eyesight was too poor to tell which tribe the orcs below were from. Xiangshan, who arrived late, came forward and observed them carefully. He nodded affirmatively and said, "They are the wandering orcs!"
Cheng Mo stared at the situation below with concern. Due to the double deterrence of Banmu and the solid city walls, the group of wandering orcs were obviously a little afraid to move forward, and even began to have thoughts of retreating. However, how could Banmu let them go so easily?
At this moment, Banmu rushed towards the group of wandering orcs at lightning speed, and the group of wandering orcs let out a scream of extreme terror.
When everyone came to their senses, they found that the group of stray orcs were lying on the ground in a mess, lifeless, and Banmu was standing steadily among the corpses, shaking his bloody claws with disgust on his face.
After making sure that the crisis was resolved, everyone opened the city gates and went to deal with the aftermath.
At this time, Banmu had already cleaned his claws in the moat and returned to the city gate leisurely.
"Are you okay?" Cheng Mo rushed to Ban Mu and asked with concern.
"It's okay." Ban Mu held Cheng Mo's hand tightly and walked slowly into the city gate. As he walked, he lowered his voice and said to Cheng Mo: "I have observed carefully. The beast patterns on these stray orcs are exactly the same as the ones we encountered before."
Hearing this, Cheng Mo was shocked. He stared at Ban Mu with wide eyes and asked in disbelief: "Are you talking about the wandering orcs we encountered at the beginning?" Ban Mu nodded slightly to show his affirmation, and then analyzed: "Yes, from all indications, they are most likely from the same tribe. But the question is, are they here deliberately to seek revenge, or did they happen to meet the hunting team and follow them here? But no matter what the real reason is, it is certain that Qiming City is no longer safe now."
Cheng Mo looked around, and saw the orcs celebrating their victory and smiling happily. However, he knew that the joy in front of him was only temporary. Facing unknown threats, they must not take it lightly. The most urgent thing now is to quickly find out the movements of the group of wandering orcs and not sit and wait for death!
Thinking of this, Cheng Mo was just about to turn around and look for Xiong Bo to discuss countermeasures, but he happened to catch a glimpse of Xiong Bo leaning on a crutch, his body trembling constantly, and being supported by others as he walked down the city wall with difficulty.
This highly respected high priest is getting older and his health is not as good as before. Although he has lived a good life in the past two years, the hard work in his early years has left him with some illnesses and his health is not as good as before. He really should not be allowed to continue to worry about the affairs of the wandering orcs!
Cheng Mo thought about it and finally decided not to discuss the matter with Xiong Bo, and went to find Hen Yi instead. Hen Yi used to be unwilling to get too close to others because he was an alien wandering orc, but he stayed in the tribe because of Ban Mu's retention. After the completion of Qiming City, he wanted to continue wandering outside, but was stopped by Ban Mu. No one knew what Ban Mu talked to him about, but he finally settled in Qiming City.
"Hen Yi is smart and very strong. We will go out and look for the traces of those stray orcs, and he will stay in the city to take charge of the situation." Cheng Mo said.
Banmu nodded, but considering that Hen Yi was a loner and hated dealing with people, they had to arrange someone to assist him. In the past, the best candidate was the high priest, but considering that the high priest was old, they gave up. Finally, they found Xiong Wu. Although Xiong Wu was not very smart, he had a good relationship with Hen Yi! Xiong Wu was also very powerful, and the most important thing was that he would not be dissatisfied with Hen Yi for temporarily taking over the position of city lord.

After arranging a series of matters, Cheng Mo and Ban Mu set out. This time they had been searching for three consecutive days, but still could not find any trace of the wandering orcs. These orcs seemed to have disappeared overnight.
night--
Cheng Mo was sitting quietly in front of the campfire, holding a worn-out animal skin in his arms, his eyes confused and lost. Ban Mu was concentrating on roasting food for him, sparks flying and aroma filling the air.
Cheng Mo stared at the fire, and after a long silence, he finally couldn't help but ask: "Ban Mu, where do you think those stray orcs are hiding?" Ban Mu shook his head, indicating that he knew nothing either.
Cheng Mo sighed and said to himself, "Could it be that they knew we were tracking them down, so they all hid themselves? They were so bold as to burn, kill and rob everywhere, how could they be afraid of the two of us? And their actions were so big, which meant they had a lot of people. Where could such a large group of people hide?"
Banmu handed the roasted meat to Cheng Mo and said casually, "Maybe they are not the ones who did all these things. In fact, there are not many of them, so we have not been able to find them."
Cheng Mo took the barbecue and argued nonchalantly: "If it wasn't them, who else could it be? Could it be that other tribes were involved..." Before he could finish his words, Cheng Mo suddenly froze, and an extremely terrifying thought flashed through his mind. He looked at Banmu in astonishment and said in disbelief: "The scale of the wandering orcs will not be that large. Although the Goat Tribe is weak, they have many people. I met people from the Goat Tribe on the trading day last year. They were able to exchange so many of our pottery jars at one time, which means that the scale of their tribe must not be too small! Even the Goat Tribe was destroyed overnight. There must be people from other tribes among those wandering orcs who are trying to fish in troubled waters!"
Banmu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "It's not impossible. Since wandering orcs don't have a fixed tribe, they have been wandering around robbing people all the time. However, their activities are not always successful. Unsuccessful wandering orcs will soon die of hunger and expulsion from other tribes. Therefore, there are not many wandering orcs. Such a large-scale activity may not only involve wandering orcs."
The more Cheng Mo thought about it, the more scared he became. "If this is true, then why did those tribes do this? If it was for survival, then it's not right for them to kill everyone in the tribe! Killing males can be said to be because they are afraid of revenge from these people, but what is the purpose of killing females and cubs? And what are they looking for?"
