Chapter 534 (1/2)
The Ferocious Flaming Horn
Nobody asked if they could eat them, but seeing Shao Xuan’s calm reaction, many of them felt teased. They already lost their appetite when they saw this beast. Why would they even think about eating it?
In fact, many of them had been to the desert, and there were also many beasts there. Since they experienced the desert, they should already be mentally prepared for this. But forests were not the same as deserts, and killing people was also different from killing beasts.
The desert where the slave masters lived had too many deaths. Sometimes they looked over and saw not even a single living creature. But as long as they were cautious, they could avoid most of the dangers.
But it was different here. There was a sign of life everywhere, and all these living creatures were ready to kill. It was hard to defend themselves against them, and if they really had to defend according to the different types of creatures, they would be exhausted.
This was the home of ferocious beasts.
Screech---
Several hawks cried out from the sky above.
The faces of people from the Hui tribe changed suddenly. They could feel the anxiety from the hawk’s cry, and they wanted to climb a tree to see what had happened. The trees were lush and the branches were too leafy. It blocked out the entire sky from above, and only small beams of sunlight shone through the narrow gaps.
“You don’t need to look. Your hawks probably got lost and entered the territory of other beasts.” Shao Xuan guessed without looking.
“Don’t let them fly around. We need to follow our original plan and stay on it. Don’t try to fight those beasts. It won’t be good if more birds come our way.” Shao Xuan explained.
Gu La nodded, climbed onto a tree, and facing the sky, he blew a whistle. As the giant hawks descended, he gave them some instructions and then returned to the rest of the team.
Screech----
“In the forest, there are many places where you need to pay attention to. Some places are territories marked by some beasts, and we shouldn’t barge in carelessly. We need to judge and see whether they are enemies we could handle. If you barge into the territory of a beast you can’t beat and hunt their prey, or you will be out of luck.” Shao Xuan explained to those who were unfamiliar with the forest as he led the way so that they could gain a deeper understanding and cause less trouble.
“But how do we know which area belongs to a beast, and which beasts we can beat?” someone in the team asked.
“Isn’t that why we’re here?” Shao Xuan said, “We haven’t entered the heart of the Fearsome Beast Forest yet, so we’re still pretty familiar with this area. As long as you follow our instructions, then we can avoid most troubles.”
Did this mean that they had to follow the Flaming Horn’s instructions and go wherever they were instructed to go?
The people who heard Shao Xuan’s words were a little unhappy, but after all, they had no experience living in the forest, so they could only follow the Flaming Horn’s instructions and do what they’re told.
“I just hope that you guys can do your best in leading the way,” said Huang Ye of the Mang tribe.
“We will. Don’t worry.”
As soon as Shao Xuan finished his sentence, a snapping sound came from not far away, the sound of branches and vines snapping, and it was inching closer towards them.
