416: The wild is very dangerous, and there are ogres!
“Alright, let’s keep moving! We’ve already wasted a lot of hunting time!” Bai didn’t say much else, as the most important thing now was to hunt!
Although he brought two newcomers, he couldn't expect too much.
However, Bai couldn't let his daily hunting yield be too low!
He already had two newcomers, and now he had wasted a lot of time, so he couldn't delay any longer.
“Mhm, mhm!” Allie nodded.
Then the team continued forward.
Chen sidled up to Allie: “Hey! Where did you go! I just zoned out for a bit… and you were gone…”
As a transverser, Allie didn’t believe what Allie said, and he also knew that Allie was a “transverser,” so he naturally wouldn’t believe Allie’s excuse.
“There was an otherworldly invader, here to hunt me!” Allie whispered to Chen.
“???” Chen was bewildered when he heard Allie’s words, then he widened his eyes: “!!!”
“Yes, that’s right, it’s exactly what you’re thinking!” Allie nodded and said.
“You mean that Glory Society?” Chen lowered his voice and asked Allie.
“No, it’s another organization… The Celestial Realms don’t just have a few organizations!” Allie told Chen.
“…” Chen suddenly felt that the world was even more dangerous.
“The incoming opponent was very strong, so in order not to affect everyone, I ‘disappeared’ for a while to deal with it!” Allie told Chen.
“Understood!” Chen nodded.
“What are you two whispering about! I told you to collect medicinal herbs!” Bai turned around and shouted at Allie and Chen.
“Ah!? Oh, oh! Coming, coming!” Allie and Chen quickly ran over.
“Things like this, and this, are all medicinal herbs. When you see them, collect them and bring them back! And this is wild vegetables, for eating.” Bai told Allie and Chen, teaching them to identify what these various plants were.
“Mhm, mhm!” Allie and Chen carefully identified them, then listened to Bai describe their characteristics and how to collect them.
After they collected them, he had them put them into their waist pouches.
Allie didn't have one, but Chen did, so everything was put into Chen’s collection pouch.
“Along the way, everyone actually searches separately. If you find prey, if it’s small, hunt it yourself. If it’s large, let us know, and we’ll hunt it together! And all the medicinal herbs and wild vegetables along the way must be collected by yourselves!” Bai told Allie and Chen.
“We are now going to advance and search in a scattered, carpet-like manner. Remember! Don’t go too far. You must stay within line of sight, or within shouting distance. It’s best not to exceed three hundred meters. Understood?”
“Mhm, mhm! We understand!” Allie and Chen nodded repeatedly.
“Everyone, get moving! Allie and Chen, you two will stay by my side and learn! Strive to be able to act on your own by tomorrow or the day after!” Bai told Allie and Chen.
After all, they were two “newcomers.” Setting aside the issue of strength, because one couldn't completely rely on prey.
But medicinal herbs, wild vegetables, and so on, had to be collected.
As for prey, that was up to fate.
After all, you never knew with that kind of thing.
“Okay! We understand.” Allie and Chen nodded.
Around four or five o’clock, when the sun began to set.
Bai reassembled everyone and began the return journey!
As for how many medicinal herbs and wild vegetables were collected, that was uncertain, but in terms of prey, Allie saw rabbits, pheasants, a deer, and a wild boar in everyone’s hands.
It seemed like a good harvest.
Although they weren’t powerful beasts, at least they were meat.
“Today there wasn’t too much danger, and the harvest was average, but this is a good thing for you two! It’s good for your first day of hunting to be uneventful, to gain experience!” Bai told Allie and Chen.
“Mhm, mhm! Very good!” Chen nodded and said. He felt that hunting outside was much more fun than being in the tribe, or rather, he felt it was more meaningful and he was more invested.
It seemed that hunting outside was his “true path”!
Allie also found it quite novel.
This method, this behavior, she had never seen before, and she was obtaining these resources through her own labor.
Then returning to the tribe with the resources to bring “survival supplies” to everyone, this feeling was quite novel.
After all, Allie had always been the one who was “taken care of,” and now she had a feeling of having grown up and being able to “earn money to support the family,” which gave her a sense of accomplishment.
This hunt was indeed very peaceful.
Bai also saw the lingering excitement on Allie and Chen’s faces and said, “Don’t think of hunting as being so wonderful!
Although this time was very peaceful and stable, and this is the situation for most hunts.
But that doesn’t mean it will always be so peaceful, just going out, collecting some things, and casually catching a few prey.
This is because we haven’t encountered powerful beasts, nor have we encountered ogres!
You must not let your guard down in future hunts!”
“Ogres?” Allie was stunned for a moment; it was the first time she had heard this word.
Even watching Maple Leaf’s live stream until now, she had never heard this word.
And when this “new word” appeared on Allie’s side, she immediately @-ed Maple Leaf.
And Maple Leaf, who was also in the tribe, saw Allie’s @ and immediately turned her gaze to watch Allie’s live stream.
“There are many kinds of ogres, and we refer to them collectively.
One type is true ogres; they are monsters! Their favorite food is humans! Although I don’t know why, it’s true that their favorite food is humans. Usually, once they discover traces of humans, they will attack like mad.
There is also another type of ogre, which are some ‘crazed’ tribal warriors. The reason is unclear, but their original ‘human’ form can still be seen. Their strength is much weaker compared to true ogres, but their strength is much greater than their original strength.
For example, a Three-rank Warrior, after becoming an ogre, might become a Second-rank or even a First Class Warrior!” Bai earnestly told everyone: “Not to mention there are some potential dangers, such as various venomous insects skilled in stealth, some special plants… one can easily fall victim! And most of them, even a First Class Warrior’s physique, will face death if they encounter them.
Youngsters! The wild world is very complex! And very dangerous! You still have a lot to learn!”
Bai’s earnest demeanor and look of lingering fear.
Clearly, he had also experienced a lot.
Allie and Chen nodded repeatedly. Although Allie was confident in her strength, she wasn’t the kind of reckless person who wouldn’t listen to advice.
This world was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, and it was also very dangerous!
She wasn't Sister Clarissa; it was better to be cautious.
