Jungle Throne

The unfamiliar yet familiar roar awakened Gao Zhige's memory of the giant beast.Just when she was so dazed, Uncle Gua, the most experienced man, turned pale with fright, pushed Meng Ya and Meng Shuang hard respectively, and shouted anxiously at Gao Zhige who had already leaned out of the cave:

"Go in and hide, don't make a sound! Damn it! It's a brutal lizard!" Uncle Gua scolded, "Don't giant beasts only come when the beasts swarm? Why are they coming out now?"

Meng Shuang and Meng Ya were pushed for a while, and they also reacted one after another.Hearing Uncle Gua's question, Mengya replied subconsciously: "Last year when the leaves fell, the beast tide broke out ahead of schedule. Until the ice season came, the giant beasts had been moving outside."

"Giant beasts are as afraid of the cold as snakes, and they must return to the depths of the forest during the ice season." Uncle Gua's face was ugly, but his thoughts were very clear. What happened over there made these big guys come out at any time."

Then he sighed again: "The other side of the snow-capped mountain has been flooded, and the tribes there have all moved away. I didn't expect an accident to happen here. Is the disaster that the priest said is coming?"

While speaking, the three orcs had changed back into their animal form and entered the cave, and the relatively spacious cave suddenly became crowded.

Everyone almost held their breath and listened carefully to the movement outside with their ears pricked up.The roar of the brutal lizard rang out several times afterward, drifting away, as if announcing to this land that they were coming back again.

I don't know how long it took, until the roar of the giant beast could no longer be heard outside, and the sounds of insects gradually sounded sparsely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew, you guys should go to bed while it's still some time before dawn." Uncle Gua said, and with a look, he called Meng Shuang and Meng Ya to the entrance of the cave.

Gao Zhige thought for a while, and followed.If she didn't figure out one problem, even if she was very sleepy, she still couldn't fall asleep.Just now, Uncle Gua mentioned something about the giant beast, which reminded her of the doubts she had when she first encountered the giant beast last year.Amum, who is the oldest of the wolf tribe and has experienced the most things, only knows that these giant beasts live in the depths of the forest and only appear when there is a beast tide, but he can't explain why.Perhaps Uncle Gua can answer this question.

"Uncle Gua." Gao Zhige lowered his voice and said, "I have a question."

"It's about giant beasts." She paused, "You just said, 'What happened in the depths of the forest that allowed these big guys to come out', what do you mean? Giant beasts can't come here at any time Yes, is it?"

When Uncle Gua heard this, he raised his wrinkled eyelids, looked at her calmly, and did not answer immediately.

At this time, Meng Shuang interjected: "I forgot that Gao was brought over from the wolf tribe by the priest. The wolf tribe has become like that, so how can they still know such things? Let me tell you, after a long time A long time ago, giant beasts suddenly appeared. They destroyed the tribe and preyed on orcs and non-orcs. No one could defeat these giant beasts. Later, the beast god drove them to the depths of the forest and set up a barrier. It will come out in time. The Beast God also allows the orcs to awaken, gain strength, and defeat the giant beast."

It sounds reasonable, but Gao Zhige just felt that something was wrong.She asked again: "Then why is this forest called a hunting ground?"

"Of course it's the beast tide, and the orcs come here to hunt giant beasts, that's why it's called the hunting ground!"

While listening to Meng Shuang's words, Gao Zhige quietly looked at Meng Gua's expression, and found that the other party did not express anything to Meng Shuang's words, as if he had acquiesced.

"Then why the giant beasts can come out before the beast tide arrives? Is it because the barrier is loose?"

"It should be." There was confusion in the blindfolded eyes, and she was not very clear about the answer to this question, and she subconsciously glanced at Menggua when she said it.

"How did the beast tide come about? Why is there a beast tide every time the snow melts and leaves fall?"

"It's because of the beast tide, the beast tide..."

"It's not that there was a beast tide before the giant beasts appeared, but because the giant beasts came out, all the wild beasts in the deep forest escaped, and this formed the beast tide." Uncle Gua finally opened his mouth and said slowly.

Uncle Gua sighed, got up suddenly, walked out of the cave from the entrance, and looked at the stars in the sky with a vicissitudes of life.

Meng Shuang and Meng Ya hurried out, not knowing if there was any danger outside, but Uncle Gua suddenly went out rashly like this, which startled them.Gao Zhige reacted a little slower. Seeing that they had followed them out, she also walked out of the cave lightly.

Uncle Gua glanced back at the cave, and saw that it was quiet inside. Except for a few of them, everyone was sleeping, and no one followed them secretly to eavesdrop.

"Shuang, what you said just now was said by the priest, right?" Uncle Gua said casually.

"Hmm? Well, I heard the priest say it when I was a child." Meng Shuang quickly came to his senses after being called out suddenly.

"Since this is what the priest said, let's take it as it is." Uncle Gua said, thinking that it doesn't matter what the truth is, anyway, he heard it from other tribes.

"Did the priest tell you why we can't go deep in the forest?" Uncle Gua asked again.

"Is it because of the place of death?" Meng Shuang asked cautiously.

"The land of death is actually a part of the forest, but there are many beasts as ferocious as giant beasts underneath." Uncle Gua didn't take it seriously, "Not only us, but also the orcs of other tribes, in fact, can't enter the forest In the depths, the farthest can only come below the land of death."

"There are actually two barriers between the depths of the forest and the land of death, not only to prevent the giant beasts from coming, but also to us. We are the same as the giant beasts, except that the giant beasts are locked in the depths of the forest, and We are locked in the outskirts of the forest."

As Uncle Gua spoke, he paid attention to their expressions.

"What the priest has been looking for is not a way to survive in the forest, but how to cross that barrier and enter the depths of the forest."

"Why...why?" Meng Shuang couldn't figure it out, she glanced at Meng Ya, who also frowned, with puzzlement on his face.

"It's because of the disaster that will come at some point!" Gao Zhige said suddenly.The moment Uncle Gua just finished speaking, the memories of the past emerged, and all the clues were strung together, and she suddenly realized.

"In the past, the Clouded Leopard Tribe managed to leave the snow-capped mountains by some means, most likely they entered the depths of the forest. Meng Huo has been looking for a way for the Clouded Leopard Tribe to enter, and then... found me, because I and the Tang Yuanshan of the Yunbao tribe came from the same place. He felt that since Tang Yuanshan could find a way to bring the Yunbao tribe in, then I might be able to..."

"Do you know Tang Yuanshan?"

The more Gao Zhige talked, the more she felt that it made sense, but then her shoulders suddenly became heavy—the old lion put a paw on her shoulders for some reason, with such force that it almost shattered her bones.Her footsteps were unsteady, and she staggered back, but the other party quickly restrained her emotions and retracted her claws.

Meng Shuang, who was closest, quickly reached out to support Gao Zhige, but a sharp wooden spear was suddenly thrown from one side, pointing directly between them.

Meng Shuang had to dodge.

The wooden spear flew by and stuck on the ground.

Gao Zhige fell heavily to the ground.

"Moo!" A bull pouted, took the opportunity to jump out from the bushes behind Menggua, with its sharp horns facing his back.

Uncle Gua instinctively wanted to dodge, but as soon as he took half a step, he immediately realized that if he dodged, the bull that hit was Gao Zhige who fell to the ground.He hesitated for a moment, and the bull was already in front of him.

At the critical moment, Monya rushed up and scratched the bull's front paw.The bull's front leg was dripping with blood immediately, but it still charged forward, and the bull's horn pierced into Uncle Gua's chest in an instant.

"Roar--"

Gao Zhige's eyes widened in panic, her eyes were blurred by the warm and bright red blood.

The author has something to say: Originally, the full text was scheduled to be around 25, and it would probably be finished within a hundred chapters. The next book might be Interstellar?
