With a WHOOSH, it sat bolt upright. "..."
’Dog Host, didn’t you say you weren’t going to sleep?’
’How am I supposed to handle this massive body of yours?’
It extended a claw and gestured a few times, but in the end, the System gave up on the impulse to scratch her face.
It silently took out a palm-sized piece of Beast Skin from the System Space and placed it beneath the corner of the Dog Host’s mouth.
Perhaps because the "bed" beneath her wasn’t very comfortable, Wu Yue didn’t sleep well. In her dream, she seemed to have returned to Hua Country, on a plane that was bucking with constant turbulence, making her feel absolutely awful.
’This isn’t a flight, this is a total white-knuckle ride!’
"Dog Host, if you don’t wake up now, the plane is going to crash."
A familiar voice rang in her ear. Wu Yue frowned. ’The dog System came back with me, too?’
The next moment, a stinging pain on her face made her eyes snap open. She saw the dense forest ahead and felt the morning wind on her face.
She shivered. "Emma, why is it so cold?"
"I saw you were having a blast on that plane in your dream. I almost felt bad for interrupting."
The System silently put the drool-soaked piece of Beast Skin back into the System Space. ’Better not let her embarrass herself. I still have to maintain my Dog Host’s image as a witch out in public.’
The cold wind was the best stimulant. Wu Yue looked at her System. "Are we almost there?"
The System nodded. "We should be close. They’re steadily losing altitude."
Not long after they spoke, the Beastman Warriors of the Flying Eagle Tribe let out a collective cry and descended in unison toward a clearing below.
Wu Yue’s legs were numb as she climbed off the Beastman Warrior’s back, and her knees felt a little weak.
’Man, I have to make some knee pads when I get back. A few more flights like this and I’ll definitely get arthritis.’
"Wu Yue, this is as far as we can take you. You must be careful."
The Flying Eagle Witch stepped forward. He was quite fond of the young female before him. He had been deeply grateful to her ever since she helped them with the Poisonous Insect incident.
"Thank you for seeing me here."
Wu Yue said this as she took the basket off her back. Reaching inside, she pulled out an arm-length bamboo tube and handed it over. "This is a medicinal powder I made with my own witch power. It’s very effective on wounds.
"The Healing Witch Power within the powder will last until winter. Even after the witch power dissipates, the powder itself is still an excellent healing remedy.
"May the Beast God bless the Flying Eagle Tribe."
The Flying Eagle Witch gratefully accepted the tube of medicinal powder. The importance of a Healing Witch to the Flying Eagle Tribe was simply immense.
As a Poison Witch, his own witch power had no healing properties whatsoever.
Therefore, for everyday healing, the Flying Eagle Tribe relied entirely on herbal medicine.
Now, having a powder infused with Healing Witch Power was like having a Healing Witch with them. How could he not be grateful?
"I will accept this medicinal powder. The Flying Eagle Tribe is in great need of it."
He then took a Crystal Core from within his robes and handed it to Wu Yue. "The deep forest is very dangerous, and your Witch Power Level isn’t very high yet. If you encounter a danger you cannot escape, throw this Crystal Core.
"It’s not just our Beastman Warriors who need Crystal Cores to advance their Rank; Fierce Beasts crave them even more.
"While they’re fighting over the Crystal Core, make your escape."
He then looked at Wu Yue. "If the Beastman Warrior you’re looking for is very gravely injured, or even..."
He didn’t finish the sentence, but Wu Yue knew what he meant.
"Then use the Crystal Core to help him advance his Rank. If he succeeds, there might still be some hope."
Wu Yue could feel the elder’s sincere concern. She reached out and took the Crystal Core. "Thank you. I’ll remember that. I hope that after this danger has passed, I’ll be able to see you and the members of the Flying Eagle Tribe again."
"You will."
The Flying Eagle Witch smiled and nodded.
After bidding farewell once more to the surrounding Beastman Warriors from the Flying Eagle Tribe, Wu Yue shouldered her small basket and entered the gloomy deep forest.
"Witch, I’m afraid that young female won’t be coming back," a Beastman Warrior from the Flying Eagle Tribe remarked regretfully from the side.
The deep forest is fraught with danger. Even Silver Rank Beastman Warriors risk their lives by going in, let alone a young witch who only possesses Healing Witch Power.
Healing Witch Power, while formidable, offers no combat strength.
"And how would you know if she can make it back?"
The Flying Eagle Witch clutched the bamboo tube, turned, and climbed onto the back of a Beastman Warrior. "Let’s hurry back to the tribe. The danger is approaching."
The group of Beastmen glanced back at the edge of the deep forest one last time before spreading their wings and taking to the sky.
