Jungle Throne

Because the grassland is covered with heavy snow during the ice season, there are hardly many wild animals that come out to move around.And each lion group of the lion tribe has already stocked up enough food for them to survive the entire ice season long before the ice season arrives, so even if they go out to hunt no prey and come back during the ice season, they can relax through the entire ice season.

Here, one thing needs to be explained, that is, although the lion tribe is composed of multiple lion groups, the relationship between the lion groups is both cooperative and competitive.If there is an external enemy, then the lions will unite and unite to the outside world; but if it is an internal conflict, which of the lions' orcs is not strong enough to hunt enough food, and cannot provide a satisfactory material environment for the non-orcs of their own lions , other lions don't mind splitting and annexing this lion group.

Before the snowmelt comes next year, the ice season will be very long, so the annual ice season competition is the favorite entertainment of the lion tribe.

As mentioned earlier, there is a deep pit made by a meteorite inside the lion tribe. Lions and beastmen usually compete in the deep pit. Therefore, this deep pit is called the arena.In the first few days of the ice season competition, the lions and beasts challenged each other freely.

In the past, lion orcs basically chose opponents who were comparable in strength to themselves, and would not choose opponents with a big gap, unless they usually had a bad relationship, were unwilling, unconvinced, or wanted to prove their strength. Challenge each other in this formal occasion.

There is a class division between lions, like the Mengbei Lions and Menglie Lions, the two strongest lions are eligible to wear the sharpest and longest fangs in the mouth of the beast on their necks , other lions are not allowed, and you can only choose inferior animal teeth to wear.

Meng Bei took over his own lion pride when he was just an adult, and he behaved very ordinary and low-key at the beginning of the first year.However, when everyone thought that she was not as powerful as her father, Meng Bao, she led the lions to defeat the second most powerful lions in the ice season competition that year, and jumped to No. The throne of 2 shocked everyone's eyes.

There are lion orcs who think that Mengbei is a fluke, but in fact the strength is not strong.Later, after the competition ended, Mengbei was challenged by orcs from other lions one after another in private. The few in the first lion group and most of the other orcs in the tribe have been beaten by her.

In the next year's ice season competition, there will still be many orcs who are unwilling to give up and challenge her.After she defeated them, there were almost no people who would challenge her in the third year of competition.This year is the fourth year.

However, for some reason, there have been more orcs challenging her this year, and usually these people have nothing to do with Mengbei.

However, the opponent specifically picked the non-lethal but easy-to-injury parts to fight. After dozens of games, Mengbei's body was covered with bruises and bruises, and some places were bleeding. It also swelled up high, and its appearance was truly terrifying.

Of course, her opponents were not much better, their bones were directly broken, at least Mengbei could still walk, but they couldn't move unless they lay down for ten days and a half months.

Gao Zhige frowned, racking his brains to use the limited herbs in his hand to boil and apply it to Mengbei, while massaging him to activate blood circulation.

"Boss..." Meng Shuang, the youngest orc in the lion pride, looked at Meng Bei lying on the animal skin pitifully, with very worried eyes.

Meng [-], Meng [-], Meng [-], the three lionesses huddled together head to head, and also looked at Meng Bei with concern.

And Meng Shi was sitting not far away, and his eyes were also turned to this side.Since the last time when he was hunting a brutal lizard in the forest, his eye was plucked by a cane, and his eye has since turned into a blood eye.Although he can still see things, all he sees are bloody scenes.To be honest, although he dissatisfied with Mengbei, he can let go of personal grievances for the benefit of the entire lion group.

"What are you going to do with the next lion fight?" Meng Shi asked.

"I won't hold back, don't worry." Meng Bei said lightly.

Mengshi stopped talking.

After the individual fights, the next half-month lions fight.Those with the first and second strength will fight as a group, then the third and fourth will fight as a group, and so on.Therefore, the opponent of the Mengbei Lions is the Menglie Lions.And now the personal competition is not over yet, Mengbei is injured like this, although it is not fatal, it will affect the speed of action.

On the other hand, the strength of the Menglie lion group is well preserved.The reason why the Menglie lion group is ranked first is because the head lion of the lion tribe belongs to the Menglie lion group.However, the head lion does not participate in any competition, so aside from the head lion, Meng Lie's strength is similar to that of Meng Bei.Both of them are the leaders of the lions. If Mengbei is injured, it will be more beneficial to the Menglie lions in the next lions' fight.

Anyone who is not stupid can guess that someone is deliberately targeting Mengbei.However, as long as you turn your mind a little more, you can get in touch with the lion and the priest who have always been in conflict.This is no longer a simple lion fight, but a battle between two factions. There must be a lion behind the opponent.

The purpose... can't just be as simple as winning this battle, there must be other conspiracies.Gao Zhige thought in his heart, so he was a little absent-minded, and the weight of his hands was lost. He accidentally pressed hard, Meng Bei couldn't hold back, and groaned in pain.

"Sorry, I was distracted just now."

Gao Zhige was pulled back by the other party's muffled groan, and quickly apologized.

"fine."

"This lion competition you are talking about...what exactly is it?" Gao Zhige hesitated for a moment, but still asked.

"Meng Yi, tell me." Meng Bei said.

So Gao Zhige turned to look at the lioness who took a step forward, only to hear the other party say: "A lioness fight is a fight between two lions, and the place is in the forest. During the fight, one of the lions will Bring a non-orc in their lion group and be responsible for protecting their own non-orc from being snatched by the opponent until the battle is over and return to the tribe to win; the other party is responsible for snatching the opponent's non-orc until the end of the battle and bringing it back to the tribe Even if they win. And this non-orc will become a member of the lion pride they won the competition. The competition lasts for half a month."

After listening to Meng Yi's introduction, Gao Zhige frowned even tighter, feeling very uncomfortable.To put it bluntly, this competition is a bet on the non-orcs, and whoever wins will belong to them.Moreover, this is a competition between the collective and the collective. Even if the non-orc is unwilling, can the individual's wishes be greater than the interests of the collective?

Thinking of this, Gao Zhige forced himself to take a deep breath, let out a breath, looked directly into Meng Yi's eyes, and asked, "What if the non-orc gets injured in the battle?"

Meng Yi was stared blank by her sharp eyes for a second, then came back to his senses, and involuntarily put on a reverent tone: "Jing, the fighting is over, neither won nor lost."

"So non-orcs died in vain, right?" Gao Zhige suddenly felt a burst of sadness.She stopped massaging her hands, walked up to Meng Yi, and questioned word by word:

"If any pride finds they can't win, then kill the non-orcs and make the fight a draw. Tell me, won't you?"

Meng Yi looked at Gao Zhige who was approaching, and after seeing the sadness and anger in the opponent's eyes, she opened her mouth when faced with the female's questioning, but was unable to say that word in front of the opponent.

"Yes." Mengbei's voice came from behind.

Gao Zhige turned his head, his eyes widened, and he looked at the calm Meng Bei in disbelief.After a while, she found her voice again:

"So, what kind of existence are we in the eyes of you orcs?"
