From a Slave to a Overlord, My Experience with the Beast World

Since being promoted to a three-star orc warrior, Li Mingsheng has stopped hunting. His main task these days is to prepare things for the snow season.

He had hunted a lot of exotic beast meat, and all the salt he brought back from the cannibal tribe had been used to pickle the exotic beast meat.

The marinated beast meat was still hanging in the cave's ventilation area. He had dug several interconnected caves in the shape of beasts. The main cave was used for sleeping, and there were two caves on each side. The second cave on the left was used for cooking and used as a kitchen. He had dug a vent on the top of the cave to allow smoke to escape. He filled the other cave with firewood.

The two on the right, one is used to store meat, wild fruits, lotus roots, etc., and the other one is temporarily empty and will be used as the second storage room when more supplies are available in the later stage.

He also dug a small room near the cave entrance, which was connected to the cliff. He simply blocked it with some branches and opened an opening for convenient use.

After all, it is too dangerous to relieve oneself in the wild at night.

This place is where he spends the snow season, so naturally all aspects have to be taken into consideration.

Moreover, Wugui Mountain is rich in resources, and he wants to continue to advance in and improve his strength. If nothing unexpected happens, this will be his habitat for the next two years, so he naturally needs to make it comfortable.

Li Mingsheng looked at the empty bamboo tube and became more eager to find salt. The snow season was only four or five days away, so he had to find salt in these few days, otherwise it would be even more difficult to find salt during the three-month snow season.

Time was running out, so he had to set out to find salt today. Although there was salt in the tribe, he was a slave and it would be easy for him to go there alone and never come back, so his goal was to find a place with a sea and boil sea salt.

There seemed to be a hidden river on the way from the cannibal tribe to Wugui Mountain, which took about a day and a night. Li Mingsheng had seen it before and had planned to explore it later. However, due to the urgent matter of salt, he planned ahead of schedule.

He had to explore it in advance. Although he was 80% sure that it led to the sea, Li Mingsheng was still a little nervous.

Before he went on a long journey, he blocked the entrance of the cave with a huge stone, then set off with his equipment. As the snow season was approaching, the weather was already a little cold. He tightened his fur coat, which was tanned with wood ash from the fur he had hunted these days.

It is soft and warm to wear, and the lower body is wearing animal skin pants. The belt is made of elastic animal tendons and has good elasticity.

Because the animal skin is not very elastic, he made the trouser legs very large.

In order to avoid transforming into a beast later, he first took off his clothes and put them in the backpack, then took out a piece of animal skin and wrapped it around his lower body. This made it easier to transform, and he could put it on directly when he turned into a human form, which was more convenient.

Li Mingsheng tore off the animal skin, transformed into an animal, bit the backpack and headed towards his goal with all his strength. He traveled for a day and a night and finally reached the dark river. Following the flow of the dark river, he walked for another half a day. On the way, he saw vague traces of other orcs' lives, and he was very alert and avoided them.

Following the flow of the underground river, it took about a day for Li Mingsheng to successfully reach the beach.

The silvery white sand beach, the broad horizon, the sky and the sea connected as one, Li Mingsheng looked at the scenery in front of him and his heart became happy unconsciously.

When Li Mingsheng arrived at the beach, it was already dark. He picked up some dry grass and dead branches from the bushes nearby and started a fire.

Fortunately, the wind was not strong at the beach tonight and the fire was lit smoothly. Looking at the big crabs and lobsters crawling on the beach, he couldn't help wanting to eat the seafood buffet.

Li Mingsheng got to work right away. He used local materials, picked up a big stone, transformed himself into a beast, and started digging the stone pot with his four claws. The four claws of the dragon were very sharp. In just a few minutes, a stone pot of even thickness was born.

Li Mingsheng swiftly picked up the stone pot, filled it with fresh water from the river that flows into the sea, and then put it on the fire. He caught a lot of crabs and lobsters on the beach, as well as octopus by the sea.

Put them into the pot together, wait for the water to boil, and when the lobsters turn red, you can eat them. Li Mingsheng first took two lobsters to test the water, and found that there was no fishy smell as he had imagined.

I thought it would be fishy without ginger, but it tasted very sweet. Li Mingsheng finished a whole pot of seafood in one go, and he was still not satisfied after finishing it. It was probably because he had a bigger appetite after becoming an orc. He cooked three pots of seafood in a row before giving up.

Because time was tight and the task was heavy, he dug seven more stone pots and connected them to make eight stoves, and they all started fires together, which made things much more efficient.

Fortunately, there was a bamboo forest next to the beach, so he had no shortage of firewood. After the seawater was boiled dry, a layer of white salt formed on the bottom of the pot. Because it was mixed with a small amount of sand, Li Mingsheng simply filtered it and added water to boil it again. After two days of sleepless work, he finally harvested eight large bamboo tubes of salt. If he used it sparingly, it should be enough for him to use for a year or so.

Over the past two days, the seaside seemed to be getting less peaceful. Li Mingsheng looked at the weather and thought that he must go back as soon as possible, lest he be stuck on the road when the snow season really comes.

Li Mingsheng cooked two large pots of seafood, put them in his backpack, and carried them back with salt.

Along the way, he was careful and tried not to leave any traces, so as not to delay the return journey. Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished, and when he passed by a place with traces of orc life, he was forced to watch a tribal sacrifice.

This tribe should be considered a small tribe, with about dozens of people. The highest-ranking one seems to be a seven-star orc warrior. The people around him seem to be very respectful to him. On the altar in the middle is an orc tied up, and in front of the tied orc stands a sub-orc wearing an animal skin robe and colorful feathers on his head.

He was only seen mumbling something. Li Mingsheng was far away and did not hear what they said. According to the original owner's previous memory, the man with feathers on his head should be the witch of this tribe, and the scene now should be the tribe holding a sacrifice.

The orc tied to the altar raised his head with a defiant look on his face. Li Mingsheng saw the black lines on his neck and confirmed his identity as a slave.

Li Mingsheng did not dare to act rashly at this time, he just wanted to wait until they finished the sacrifice before passing through. He hid himself and continued to watch this cruel sacrifice.

I saw the slave on the altar being whipped by two orcs. After being whipped more than ten times, the witch jumped around there and then splashed the beast blood in his hand at the other party.

Then he stabbed a bone knife into the opponent's chest.

With this knife, it also symbolizes the end of the sacrifice.

People in the tribe packed up and left one after another. Before leaving, other orcs also confirmed the life status of the orc lying on the ground. They left only after confirming that the orc had stopped breathing.

Slowly, everyone disappeared, and only the slave was lying on the ground, motionless.
