Surviving in the Beast World with a System

Chapter 547: Chapter 401: Cloyingly Sweet Gray Fruit

But unexpectedly, just as they reached the edge of the Polar Forest, they were captured by a squad of Beastman Warriors from the Flying Eagle Tribe.

One by one, they dangled limply from eagle talons, swaying against the vast blue sky.

Let’s just say, for a Beastman Warrior used to walking on solid ground, this sudden flying experience was a bit nauseating.

The Beastman Warriors of the Flying Eagle Tribe flew Angry Beast and his companions all the way back to their tribe, presenting them to the Flying Eagle Witch.

"Witch, we found them at the edge of the forest. They look like Beastmen from the Scorpion Tribe. They were sneaking around, so they’re definitely up to no good."

’Sneaking around?’

Angry Beast glared at the Beastman Warrior who had spoken. "How were we sneaking around?"

The words had barely left his mouth when sharp glares from the surrounding Flying Eagle tribesmen shot toward him.

Angry Beast tensed up. "..."

’Damn it, I’m so unlucky.’ He knew that his own tribe’s witch had nearly wiped out the Flying Eagle Tribe. ’My luck is just the worst.’

The Flying Eagle Witch looked at Angry Beast’s grimacing face and, after a moment of silence, spoke. "You... you’re that Scorpion Beastman from last time, aren’t you? The one who failed to abduct Yue and got left behind instead?"

Angry Beast gave a bitter laugh. "Heh... that’s me."

’Besides, did you really have to say that out loud? Don’t I have any dignity?’

The Flying Eagle Witch’s gaze was piercing. "Why have you come to our Polar Forest?"

As he spoke, witch power condensed in his hand and slowly began to envelop them. "Don’t tell me your Worm Witch sent you with more Poisonous Insects to harm us."

Seeing the color of the encroaching witch power, the hair on Angry Beast’s arms stood on end. "We didn’t bring any Poisonous Insects! We only snuck over here because we have something urgent to tell Lord Wuyue!"

The spreading witch power paused, then slowly receded until the Flying Eagle Witch withdrew it completely. "Looking for Yue?"

Angry Beast nodded hastily. "Yes! It’s extremely important. We even snuck away from our own tribe to come here."

The Flying Eagle Witch’s dark eyes narrowed. "What is it?"

"I can’t say right now. This is something we can only tell Wuyue."

Angry Beast wasn’t stupid. The Polar Forest tribes’ hatred for the Red Flame Plain Tribe was written all over their faces.

’Especially since our witch nearly wiped out their entire tribe with Poisonous Insects...’

The more he thought about it... the more Angry Beast wanted to cry.

’Damn it, was I out of my mind?’

’Why did I have to come and be the whistleblower?’

’Amu, I’m so scared.’

The Flying Eagle Witch sneered. "Now that you’re here, do you really think you have a choice in the matter?"

The moment he finished speaking, the witch power he had just withdrawn surged forth once more.

Angry Beast shuddered. "This is critical! It could bring danger to all the tribes in the Polar Forest, it could even wipe you all out! I’ll only tell Wuyue."

The Flying Eagle Witch frowned. "Danger?"

Seeing the witch power in their witch’s hand gradually dissipate, the surrounding Flying Eagle tribesmen immediately stepped forward.

"Witch, none of these Beastmen from the Red Flame Plain are any good! We had a trade agreement, but they nearly wiped out our Flying Eagle Tribe. A tribe like that can’t be trusted."

"That’s right, Witch! Our young ones were almost all... We can’t let them go!"

The gazes of the surrounding Flying Eagle tribesmen felt like knives scraping against their skin.

’Though it was highly disrespectful, Angry Beast really wanted to curse out his own witch.’

’He set loose some Poisonous Insects, and for what? It had no effect in the end! Not only was it all for nothing, but it also pissed off every single tribe in the Polar Forest.’

Although he was panicking internally, Angry Beast forced his trembling legs to hold him up.

"Please, believe me. This is really important. We were captured by the Snow Tiger Tribe before, but we survived the great rainy season because Wuyue took care of us.

That’s why we snuck away from our tribe—to tell Wuyue what’s happening."

The look in his eyes couldn’t have been more sincere.

The Flying Eagle Witch stood up and looked at the tall Beastman Warrior beside him. "Make preparations. Tomorrow, I’m taking them to the Snow Tiger Tribe."

The Beastman frowned. "Witch, do you really believe these Scorpion Beastmen? What if they..."

What if they had brought more Poisonous Insects with them?

The Flying Eagle Witch looked at Angry Beast. "Whether it’s true or not, we’ll know once we see Yue."
