The World of Beasts: Snake, I am the mother of all dragons
Chapter 368 News from the Coastal Tribes
Lie Wuya was already feeling guilty, and even Bai Luoluo's fleeting murderous intent made him feel uneasy.
Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead, wetting his clothes.
As his Adam's apple rolled up and down, Lie Wuya could no longer bear it, and like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube, he blurted out all the information he had painstakingly hidden.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw that there was no expression of surprise or joy on Bai Luoluo's face, and his heart suddenly sank.
"You...you know everything?"
Only then did he realize that the other party had already known the information he had hidden for so long and thought was extremely valuable.
Lie Wuya secretly groaned in his heart, wouldn’t that make him worthless?
He doesn't want to die!
Just when Lie Wuya was filled with regret, Lie Xingyun on the other side seemed to be suddenly struck by lightning, and a vague memory flashed through his mind.
A hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and his dry lips trembled slightly. "Um... I seem to remember something."
Lie Xingyun's voice was faint, like a breeze.
Bai Luoluo was surprised to hear this, and her gaze immediately turned to Lie Xingyun. Seeing that the other party was thinking seriously, she didn't want to lie!
There was a hint of expectation in his eyes.
So, following Lie Xingyun's retelling, Bai Luoluo quickly summoned Mo Lu.
As soon as Mo Lu entered the room, he felt the oppressive atmosphere, but his expression remained unchanged. He glanced at Lie Xingyun and others whom he had served with a calm and composed manner.
"Mo Lu, do you still remember your previous captain of the guards?"
A glimmer of reminiscence flashed in Mo Lu's eyes, and he was obviously impressed by his predecessor.
"Of course, he died in the line of duty, and that's why I have the opportunity to take over this position."
Mo Lu recalled carefully, "And I heard that he went out to carry out a secret mission. I don't know any more details."
"However, I can call the relevant personnel here. Perhaps they know more specific information."
"Sorry to bother you, Mo Lu."
So Mo Lu acted quickly and summoned the clansmen who had worked with the former chief guard at that time.
As everyone spoke, a key piece of information gradually surfaced: Lie Xiaotian has always had close contact with the outside world, and the place of contact is the coastal area.
However, these tribesmen said they were not clear about the specific content of the contact.
"However, trade between inland and coastal orcs is perfectly normal, right?"
After all, the lifestyles of the two places are very different.
The coastal orc tribe is close to the ocean and has rich marine resources. It has a humid climate and is rich in fish, shellfish, and most importantly, salt.
The orcs in the inland generally make a living by hunting and live in forests, grasslands, mountains and plains.
It is rich in mineral resources, fruits, vegetables and livestock, which are not available to the coastal tribes.
In addition, with the rapid development of hunting tools nowadays, it makes sense for both sides to share what they have with each other.
Bai Luoluo nodded slightly after hearing this, and then asked, "What is your specific mission?"
Hearing this question, the Shadow Wolf member who provided the information shook his head helplessly, a wry smile on his face: "Our division of labor has always been strict. Only the captain knows the full content of the mission. As team members, we only play a supporting role, so we don't know either. But..."
He paused, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"Just say what you have to say!"
"Actually, perhaps our old subordinates would know. After all, they were the ones responsible for this area, and they were the ones who led us in the beginning."
"An old subordinate of Shadow Wolf?" Bai Luoluo murmured.
In a corner of the Beast City, the residence of the old descendants of the Shadow Wolf seemed particularly quiet.
The architectural style here is simple and exudes a simple and unpretentious atmosphere.
However, at this moment, the tranquility was broken by the sudden visit of Bai Luoluo and others.
When Bai Luoluo appeared in front of everyone in white clothes and an iron mask, the hearts of all the former members of Shadow Wolf instantly rose to their throats.
"The Fang Mask...Soul-Suppressing Hall?"
Their eyes were filled with awe and tension, and whispers spread among the crowd.
"Oh no! Hurry up and inform the leader! They look like they're coming with great force."
"No, the leader is not with the family right now. He has gone to participate in the Soul-Calming Hall assessment."
"Ahem, the Palace Master is here in person, why don't you come over to welcome him? Is this how Mo Qi taught you the rules?" Mo Lu couldn't help but remind them in a deep voice when he saw the relaxed state of the other party.
"Palace...Palace Master?!"
"Is he the ruthless character who's said to be so powerful that he can single-handedly take on a horde of beasts?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, you're risking your life, come here and salute."
Bai Luoluo was wearing a mask with a green face and fangs. The mask shone coldly in the sunlight, making her look even more ruthless and cold.
Her voice came from behind the mask, steady and powerful. "Who was responsible for connecting Beast City with the coastal trade? I have something to ask."
Her words were like orders, unquestionable.
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, with a hint of hesitation in their eyes.
Then, a hunchbacked old man walked out tremblingly from the crowd.
His hair was already gray, and his face was covered with wrinkles of time. He bowed slightly and said in a trembling voice, "It's me, Lord Palace Master."
Bai Luoluo stared at the old man with a sharp gaze, and asked directly about the specific content of the task and whether there was anything unusual in the process.
The old man was stunned when he heard this kind of question for the first time. Then, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his weather-beaten eyes, as if dusty memories were instantly awakened.
"Back then, the trade between our Beast City and the coastal areas didn't require too many Shadow Wolf members to participate."
The old man spoke slowly, his voice slightly hoarse, "After all, the Shadow Domain is effective enough to transport supplies. Too many people would only attract the attention of stray beasts."
"But Lie Xiaotian suddenly went against his usual behavior and increased the number of manpower. Looking back now, we can see that a lot of our clansmen were lost during these missions!"
At this point, a trace of pain and regret flashed in the old man's eyes.
Their Shadow Wolf clan has really been used by the other side as the most effective knife.
After saying that, the old man turned to look at the other people beside him and began to ask in a low voice.
Everyone talked one after another, memories came flooding back, and the context of the matter gradually became clear.
It turned out that Lie Xiaotian sent them to the coast not just for trade, but most importantly, he seemed to be in frequent contact with certain people in secret.
But they didn't know who it was.
Bai Luoluo listened quietly, piecing together a complex puzzle in her mind.
After everyone finished their story, Bai Luoluo said goodbye to Shadow Wolf's former subordinates and took everyone back home.
As soon as she got home, Bai Luoluo immediately went to Ling Yunxiao's residence.
