Raptor tribe of the Western Continent, on an ancient wooden platform.

"Suya, are you going to see Fry? Wow~ I also brought jam. ”

When a group of single females were giggling and chatting on the treehouse platform, a sharp-eyed, big-mouthed female saw Suya walking in the direction of the treehouse where the single male lived with a basket between the branches in the distance, and immediately teased loudly.

"Hahaha~ I heard that Fry has woken up, right? It's really blessed by the beast god. ”

"Suya, it must be because of your careful care that Frye will wake up so quickly, you must know that the evil dragon has injured him so badly!"

Suya lowered her head with a red face, and grabbed the basket she was carrying, "Frye saved me, and I should take care of him, he is a warrior of the tribe." ”

"Oh oh oh ~ then go quickly, Frye doesn't know how anxious to wait now."

"Hahaha~ That's it, go quickly, Suya, the warriors of the tribe will be taken care of by you."

Amid the laughter of a group of coaxing females, Suya ran almost all the way off the platform and up the passage connecting the treehouses.

- What's so funny? Isn't Frye the warrior of our tribe? Last time, if it wasn't for his help, maybe I would have drowned the dragon. Frye is such a hero, he is not afraid of the dragon at all, and he has managed to capture the dragon's mate, he is really amazing......

After Su Ya came to the single male's treehouse area, he received a lot of attention or courtesy from the males, and he responded as naturally as possible - no way, the females of the raptor tribe are getting fewer and fewer, for a long time, most of the cubs born by females are eaglets, and there are very few females, and the mortality rate of young females is very high, mostly because of the weakness and illness, and there are not enough pearls in the tribe to treat them.

The simple and spacious treehouse in front of it was Warrior Fry's.

Su Ya walked to the front and back of the door, first involuntarily looked at his clothes, and after arranging his clothes and pants more neatly, he knocked lightly on the door:

"Fry, are you awake? I'm Suya. ”

Soon after, Frye's somewhat surprised response came from inside: "Suya? Oh~ Push the door in yourself. ”

The eagle remained in the form of a half-beast, his wings were the most badly wounded, completely broken into several pieces, and now he was fixed with branches and covered with herbs, and he was almost killed in the claws of the white dragon of the Sicilian Sea.

When he was brought back to the tribe that day, all the members of the Raptor tribe were very indignant, and they admired Frye's actions very much, and sympathized with his injuries, and in order to save the warrior's life, all the tribe agreed to give Frye the precious pearl to use, which made him sober up.

"Fry, are you feeling better today?" Su Ya shyly stood a little ahead of the door, not daring to go forward.

He is a female who has just reached adulthood, and his personality is very lively and cheerful, loves to talk and laugh, and is not squeamish at all, so there are many single eagles who want to partner with him.

Frye was very surprised, "It's good, it's good, you and Suya, come in and sit down." ”

This female had already come before, and he had come with another rescued female, and they had sent some fruit and said a lot of thanks, but he did not expect to come up alone again today.

Su Ya then slowly walked to the chair far from the bed and sat down, uncovered the animal skin on the basket and said:

"Fry, this is my jam made with a mix of honey fruit and plums, I hope you'll like it."

"Uh~ I, I like it very much, thank you Suya." Like any other single eagle, Frye showed great respect for the females of his tribe, and was very polite and gracious.

When Suya heard that the adoring warrior liked the jam she made, she couldn't help but bow her head and secretly laugh out eight teeth, and that look of obvious special affection inevitably shook Fry's heart.

――What should I do? I heard that the tribe was about to slay the dragon again, but they were going to slaughter the dragon in the sacred lake, not the dragon in the Sicilian Sea, and they were mistaken! Alas! It's all because I've been in a coma for too long, and now the patriarch and they have set off to the Eastern Continent to discuss the specific arrangements for slaying the dragon with the Hig patriarch.

――Do you want to tell everyone the truth? But if you tell everyone the truth, wouldn't it be the same as telling everyone that I was at fault first, and that I kidnapped the mermaid, the companion of another white dragon, and the females and Terr in the Daozhì tribe were all harmed?

Frye looked at the female Sua across from her, who had been sitting nervously, twisting her fingers, looking at herself adoringly, and shyly saying things that cared about her, and his heart was terrified.

*****

The little tiger cub has been living a full and busy life these days, because Ao Yang actually agreed to go ashore to hunt with him.

Therefore, Qingzhe will never forget that embarrassing morning.

That day, he was habitually woken up by his tiger cubs, not that Xitu was ignorant and deliberately affected his mother and father's rest, but after he woke up, he jumped out of bed by himself, flew out of the lake and ran like a frenzy, chasing a few water birds on the shore so frightened that they fluttered and flew away, and from time to time whined and whined~ Roared a few times, and the whole holy lake was woken up by him.

Ao Yang swam up from the bottom of the lake, and looked at the little black cub who had made a mess of his territory, and since this little thing was no longer afraid of himself, he could hardly sleep naturally, and was always awakened by the sound of a young tiger.

"Ao Yang, you finally woke up, do you remember the appointment we made yesterday?" Xitu excitedly ran up to the brown-eyed white dragon and asked expectantly.

Ao Yang flicked his tail: "Of course I remember, but are you sure your mother and father will agree?" ”

That female is such a cub protector, it's hard to say if he's willing to leave Xitu over to me to protect.

The little tiger cub begged pitifully: "I don't know either." So, I need your help, can you go and tell my mother and father? He probably won't refuse your offer, after all, we do lack animal skins, clothes, mattresses, and food for the cold season. ”

Xitu didn't dare to speak, because Qing Zhe had taught him repeatedly: play your own, practice your own, don't always trouble Ao Yang, he also has his own things to do.

Ao Yang thought for a moment, "I'll try, is he up?" ”

Xitu was immediately happy, "Thank you Ao Yang, you are such a good dragon!" Then he ran quickly to the hut: "I'll go and have a look." ”

Am I finally not a dragon? This cub's mind is so easy to change.

Ao Yang pursed his lips and smiled, and after stretching his strong and strong dragon body, he slowly turned into a human form.

Because he does not live in the sea and often goes ashore for activities, Ao Yang's skin is a healthy pale honey color, with wide shoulders and long legs, and very developed muscles, full of wild and explosive beauty; In particular, his brown eyes, which were transparent and deep, made people unable to take their eyes off - the fly in the ointment was that there was a raised scar from the left corner of his forehead to the center of his eyebrows, and it could be seen that it was very badly injured at that time, and it would have hurt his eyes a little more.

"Mother~Mother~" The little tiger cub opened the wooden door with his head and shouted eagerly.

Qing Zhe had already been woken up, he was already dressed, and now he was wearing animal skin boots.

"What's wrong, Xitu? Did something happen? Qing Zhe turned his head to look at a tiger cub that had hit him on his calf.

Xitu's round and wet eyes rolled, "Mother, Ao Yang, he has something to do with you." ”

Agree, agree, mother, Ao, he rarely agrees to go hunting with me, it's the cold season now, and he has been busy repairing the wooden house recently, so he said that it will take a while before he will go into the holy lake to teach me hunting......

"Ao Yang looking for me? What did he say? Qing Zhe's expression became stern, it was about the powerful dragon, he didn't dare to take it lightly, after all, this was the first time he had heard the cub say that Ao Yang was looking for himself so anxiously and solemnly.

Xitu swallowed secretly, "He, he didn't say anything, he just said that he had something to do with you." ”

The little tiger cub didn't dare to say too much, lest he show his stuffing, otherwise Qing Zhe would be angry and punish him for rubbing straw ropes and weaving baskets-Whoa~ I'm a little orc, not a little female, I'm going to hunt instead of staying at home!

"Okay, I'll go out and have a look." Qing Zhe put on his boots three times and two times, habitually put the bone knife behind his back, and hurriedly walked out of the small bedroom and opened the door.

Yes~~~~!

This is the subconscious exclamation of the female of the Tiger Clan.

Ao Yang was standing at the door of the wooden house, leaning against the door panel, curiously looking at the furnishings inside the wooden house, listening to the conversation between the mother and son by the way, until the female opened the door and screamed, he moved his eyebrows:

"I'm Ao Yang, you don't have to be afraid."

It's strange, why does he have such a strange expression? Am I so terrible in human form?

Qing Zhe quickly closed the door again, and after a "bang", he patted his forehead helplessly.

Alas~ Of course I know that you are Ao Yang, even if you become a human form, your eyes are the same.

It's just that you walked into my house naked, it's really, really scary.

Xitu took a step slower, he didn't see the scene just now, he watched his mother and father's movements in confusion.

"What's wrong, mother and father?"

"It's nothing, Xitu, you wait here, mother and father will go out soon." Qing Zhe quickly regained his composure, he took out a piece of animal skin from the basket in the corner, quickly cut it, took out the bone needle and silk thread, and made the simplest animal skin skirt as quickly as possible, the kind that could only serve as a cover.

The little tiger cub reacted at this time, and his tiger face turned red: Oops~ I forgot that Ao Yang has no clothes to wear, and the last time he turned into a human form and sent me back to the tribe, he was naked, but his mother and father are a female...... Mother and father must have been terrified......

"Xitu, you take this out, remember to teach him how to dress, wait for him to get dressed, and then call me out, remember?" In front of the cub, Qingzhe tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened.

"I see, mother, father, you wait for me to call you." Xitu quickly took the animal skin skirt and walked out, not forgetting to close the door of the inner room carefully.

After watching the cub run out, Qing Zhe sighed and sat on the bed, rubbing his knees in embarrassment, and at the same time couldn't help but remember the humanoid Ao Yang he had just seen - his humanoid form was actually the same as the humanoid of our orcs, I thought that dragons couldn't transform into shapes, or only half-beast forms. But...... He's really strong, very strong......

"Slap", this is Qing Zhe patted his head lightly again: Let you think cranky, let you think cranky, that's a dragon, that's a dragon! Be sober and sane!

Outside the door

With Xitu's help, Ao Yang finally understood why the female had such a strange expression when she saw her just now, and he put on the animal skin skirt, feeling very uncomfortable, because he had not tried this kind of restraint.

"Ao Yang, the males and females of our tribe will wear clothes, and the males must at least surround their lower bodies, otherwise the females will be embarrassed." Seetu grinded his paws and whispered to the dragon from the ocean.

"Hmm." Ao Yang sat on a wooden pier and played with a bamboo tube on the table for drinking water.

Only then did Xitu dare to knock on the door of the inner room, "It's okay, mother and father, you can come out." ”

Ao Yang raised his eyes and looked at the door: Well, it seems that the female has adjusted her affection.

"Ao Yang." Qingzhe decided to pretend that what happened just now had not happened, "Listen to Xitu, you have something to do with me?" ”

At this time, the little tiger cub squatted next to Ao Yang, quietly pushed his calf with his paws, and in the eyes of the other party instinctively looking down, the expression of the little tiger cub was a solemn pleading.

"Yes, I'm going to take your cubs hunting." Ao Yang went straight to the point and expressed his intention in one sentence.

Xitu under the table was immediately relieved: this dragon is really good, he really didn't expose me.

Qing Zhe completely twisted his brows, and put all the distracting thoughts away, as if he had been splashed with a bucket of ice water.

"Take Xitu to hunt? Ao Yang, Xitu is still a cub, he has not mastered the method of hunting at all, it will only cause you trouble, it is better to let him stay, I guarantee that he will be very well-behaved and obedient. "Oh no, is it my cub who him off? How dangerous it is to hunt in the jungle, where can a cub do it......

Qingzhe couldn't help but think crookedly and misunderstood.

"I'll take him with me, he'll be fine, didn't you say you want to store food for the cold season?" Ao Yang said patiently that he was sitting in the wooden house now, and it felt very natural and familiar, as if he should have lived in this wooden house in the first place.

Qing Zhe is still fighting: "That's too troublesome for you, Xitu should be left to me to take care of, I have prepared a lot of preserved fruits for food in the cold season, and I won't be hungry." ”

Xitu couldn't help but interject: "Mother and father, let me go, I will follow Ao Yang closely and will not cause him trouble." ”

"Let's go, Xitu, you wait for us at home. Remember, don't leave the shores of the holy lake, because if you go out, you'll become food for the beasts. Ao Yang felt that he had explained clearly, and he didn't know how to continue to say a few more words to reassure the female, so he raised his feet and walked out, and Xitu consciously followed.

Qingzhe hurriedly chased out:

"Ao Yang! Listen to me, he really can't help you, let him stay, he's a naughty little tiger......" He was a little anxious, so he simply picked up the little tiger cub and hugged it tightly in his arms, for fear that something would happen if he followed him into the dense forest.

Woo ~ Woo ~ Woo woo ~

Xitu didn't dare to struggle too hard, and looked at Ao Yang.

"Go back, we'll be back soon." Ao Yang just thought that this female was going to spoil the cub again, so he directly hugged the little tiger over, pressed Qing Zhe's shoulder and twisted it lightly, and then pushed it in the direction of the wooden house.

"Mother and father, we will be back soon, you don't have to worry about me." Although Xitu is a little reluctant, the nature of the male orcs makes him yearn to gallop into the jungle: when the cubs grow up, they can't stay at home with peace of mind, and they don't do anything to guard their mother and father.

Qing Zhe was stunned and forcefully moved, and when he turned around again, Ao Yang had already strode out far away with the tiger cub in his arms.

"Be careful! Don't risk knowing? ”

Forget it, it seems that you can't keep it, Ao Yang's attitude is so resolute, I hope he will pay attention to protect Xitu, alas~

Sicilian Sea

"Ao Bai, did you send Uncle Hu back to his house?" Ji Mo could only lie flat to recuperate, at most shaking his legs.

"Well, I sent it back a long time ago." Ao Bai was carefully applying the pale yellow transparent paste from the shell to his partner's wound, and his movements were extremely gentle.

Ji Mo took a deep breath: "This smell is so good, the white jade crab still has such a good effect of stopping bleeding and building muscles, I have never heard of this kind of crab before." ”

The smell was indescribably pleasant, it was addictive, it could forget the pain, and Ji Mo judged that this ointment had a slight psychedelic and anesthetic effect.

Ao Bai also agreed: "If it weren't for the turtle suing me, I wouldn't know that the white jade crab was still a medicine, I had seen it before in the East China Sea, but unfortunately I never paid attention to it - Hu is really a very powerful turtle, fortunately he is willing to return to live in the Sicilian Sea." ”

"Haha~ Then you can't intimidate him anymore in the future." Ji Mo pushed his partner with his knee, "Uncle Hu told me that you threatened him and smashed his turtle shell, and when he woke up, remember to catch more fish and shrimp for him and send them over to express his apologies." ”

Ao Bai changed to the other shoulder dressing, "I know, I was in too much of a hurry at that time, your blood couldn't stop, I'm really worried that you will die......"

If Ji Mo really died under the eagle claws of the land orcs, then now Ao Bai would not stay in the Sicilian Sea, and he would definitely launch a crazy out-of-control revenge against the Eagle Clan.

"No, how can it be so easy to die."

"Those damn eagles." Ao Bai whispered expressionlessly.

It was only at this time that Ji Mo deeply felt the domineering momentum of Ao Bai as the dragon king of the sea and the sixth son of the dragon of the East China Sea.

"Ahem~ Ao Bai, you see, I've been recuperating from my injuries recently, and it's inconvenient to do anything, so can you not be busy patrolling the sea yet? Anyway, the winter season has arrived, didn't you say that the ferocious sharks and poisons have swam to the deep sea, then we can take a winter vacation and have a good rest. ”

No matter, anyway, hold him back first, don't let him use his angry brain to think about revenge, in case something happens, then I really don't know who to ask for help.

Ao Bai had finished applying the ointment, he carefully covered the remaining white jade crab paste in the shell and put it in the cabinet, before turning back to the bed and holding his partner's hand:

"I know what you're worried about, Ji Mo. However, I have thought carefully about it, even if I drive all the fierce sharks in the Sicilian Sea in the future, I will not be able to attract other sea orc tribes to live in it - because our sealed sea is too close to the terrestrial orc tribes, they can easily sneak up on us, and you or the ones I protect are so badly injured that I can't imagine the consequences if we change to other merfolk. ”

Ji Mo had a headache, he also knew that the relationship between the sea orcs and the land orcs was currently incompatible, and he couldn't even do peaceful dialogue for the time being, let alone coexist peacefully. But if you want to spend the rest of your life and Ao Bai fighting with the land orcs, it's too boring and exhausting—is it worth it? Could it be that Ao Bai and I came all the way to the Sicilian Sea to live this life?

"Ao Bai, you have to understand that the conflict between us and the land orcs can't be solved in a day or two, you only have your own dragon now, and I can't help you - but the other party is a huge tribe, if you really want to do something one day, please don't hide it from me, let's figure it out together, okay?"

In fact, before the malicious attack by the Eagle Clan, Ji Mo had been thinking of a way in his heart, and even had a preliminary idea, but after seeing the attitude of the land orcs towards the sea orcs, he immediately felt that the plan he had made before was very immature, and he would not be able to put himself into it.

――Want to communicate? How to communicate, as soon as they see the mermaid, their eyes light up and they want to catch me back; As soon as he saw Ao Bai, his face was full of hatred, and he rushed up to kill the dragon!

"Well, you are my partner, of course I won't hide it from you, Ji Mo, don't worry, I will never trust those despicable and cunning eagles again."

*****

The house of Hige, the patriarch of the Eastern Continent tribe, was crowded with a room full of orcs.

The distinction is clear. On one side are the warriors of Higg and the Beast Tribe, and on the other side are the warriors of the Scar and the Raptor Tribe.

"How? Higg, it is the responsibility of the orcs of the entire Sicilian continent to recapture the sacred lake and slaughter the evil dragons, and our two tribes should join forces. Scar said with sharp eyes fixed on Higg.

Leopard Rui was the first to object: "No! This time, it was you who unilaterally provoked the evil dragon, which is completely different from the previous reason for slaying the dragon. Moreover, the cold season is coming soon, and the warriors of our tribe have to do their best to deal with the fierce beasts of the cold season, and now slaying the dragon will cause great losses to both of our tribes. ”

- Xitu and Qingzhe are still forced to stay in the Holy Lake, what kind of dragon are they slaying? Isn't this pushing the lives of their mother and son into the claws of the dragon?

"Higg, isn't it up to you to decide the tribes of the Eastern Continent?" Scar glared at the leopard dissatisfied.
