Chapter 112 Crimson Blossoms Fade
slaying zombies, the two were exhausted. After completing their mission, they returned to their rest point to recuperate. After all, they weren't made of iron. Zombies could work tirelessly, but they...Ripple, carrying the warmth of pregnancy, had lived on the edge of the tiger clan's territory for a month before leaving. She headed towards the peacock clan, which was farther away from the tigers. Ripple hadn't forgotten what she needed to do.
Although the Peacock Clan is called a beast clan, they have the ability to fly short distances, which gives them an advantage when hunting. In addition, both male and female peacocks are fond of beauty and cherish their feathers, dressing themselves more meticulously than the rough-looking Bear Clan and Tiger Clan.
Ripples thought of a way to infiltrate their tribe, and it was a new dyeing technique. Using turquoise to resist-dye hemp fabric, making the hemp fabric not only one deep brown, but also so colorful, the peacock clan would surely like such a beautiful cloth.
Of course, Lian Ri didn't have any extra burlap on her anymore. This piece was a warm contribution. When she left the Tiger Clan, she took all her belongings with her. After all, she was alone and it wasn't easy to save up these things.
The dye used for fabrics comes from the ripples on a hillside covered in vibrant flowers. The multi-colored blossoms sway in the wind, releasing a sweet fragrance. Each flower is as large as a woman's face and is quite a sight to behold.
Warmth smelled the fragrance of flowers and wanted to pick one, but Wei stopped her. He didn't say a reason, he just shook his head and said to Warmth:
These flowers are problematic, they're too beautiful.
He was at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain.
“Warmth, you have to trust the instincts of a beastman, and the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it becomes. They can grow so strong and alluring, do you know how much nourishment it takes”
The ripples sat on the beast's shoulder at this time, faintly saying.
Since saving Nuwa, Wei has become her exclusive mount. However, Lianyi doesn't mind at all. She originally intended to use Wei to find the breakthrough of the Tiger Clan. Now, with Nuan, the pregnant woman, added to the mix, she can already imagine the scene that will unfold later. Besides, Wei isn't really a pursuer of hers anyway.
Just as Lian Yi finished speaking, a long-billed bird swooped down, diving towards the reddest flower atop the mountain. Its aim was clear, but unfortunately, in the next second, the center of that face-sized red flower’s pistil extended seven or eight tongue-like stamens, directly wrapping around the long-billed bird's beak, preventing it from opening its mouth. Then the stamens quickly retracted, pulling the bird into their center.
The flower's center writhed a few times, then swallowed the rather large bird whole, making it its meal. Afterward, it even swayed proudly, leaving Warmth speechless and stunned. He never imagined that such a beautiful flower could be so ruthless.
Though the three male orcs were not afraid of these flowers, if there were mountains and plains full of these carnivorous blossoms, they would also be somewhat wary. So Meng said directly:
"Angel, let's go around this hill!"
The other two people also nodded in agreement.
"No, I'll talk to them. If we go around the hill, it will be a very long way. Warmth needs a rest."
R ripples smiled and said.
Then her beast mark flashed, and she began to communicate with the flowers. The gorgeous flowers all over the mountain swayed even more violently. Finally, it seemed that a consensus was reached with the ripples. The flower sea automatically parted to create a path for them, leading to the largest red flower.
Ripple patted Meng fiercely on the shoulder. The other party didn't hesitate at all and strode directly onto the flower path. Du also transformed into a beast, its serpentine body twisting as it followed after.
Warmed by the sight of the flower's ferocity just now, he tightly grasped the fluff on Wei's back, tightly closed his lips. He had no thoughts of plucking flowers anymore, only hoping they could pass through this sea of flowers quickly.
The ripples came to the big red flower in front of her, making him gently put her down. Then she smiled and said:
"Let me see where the problem is."
That large crimson flower swayed its massive flower disk and then twisted its body, conveying its meaning to the ripples.
"Měng, dig out the soil at its roots. Be careful not to hurt its roots, otherwise it will bite us."
Lian Yi said to Meng beside him, in terms of digging soil, Meng and Wei are definitely the strongest. As for taking care of Wen Nuan, only Meng can do it.
Meng Diandian, who was always rather taciturn, only nodded slightly, barely showing the tip of her nail as she carefully dug. Half an hour later, the roots of the large red flower emerged. Lian Ri stepped forward and took a closer look, even sniffing it, then pinched her nose and muttered disapprovingly:
"What did you eat that's undigested and foul, that it even corrodes your own roots Thankfully it hasn't spread to your main taproot."
The great red flower shrank and trembled twice, then Lian Ri said directly:
"I understand, unfortunately, the time has come. You have to completely give up on this lateral root, otherwise the rot will spread to your main stem. There's no negotiating that! If you don't want to do it, I can just put the soil back as it is, there's no other way."
The big red flower was trembling even more violently, as if engaged in a fierce internal struggle. The ripples didn't seem to be in a hurry, just standing patiently by its side.
In fact, she could heal him, but it would take a lot of energy. Mostly, she wanted to give him a lesson and show him that not everything, no matter how fragrant or foul, should be shoved into the heart of a flower.
Ripple discovered that ever since the beast mark appeared and she began communicating with it, the power she could wield had been growing. Moreover, the power within her beast mark far surpassed that of any witch in this world. She had pondered this carefully before, and concluded that it must be related to the cultivation she had managed to retain when negotiating with those men in black suits upon entering the mission.
And the beast seal is what sealed her cultivation as a Mahayana ancestor. If it were released in the Beast World, her Mahayana-period cultivation would allow her to surpass almost all witches. So, when she shows kindness to the Beastmen and the Beast World, only a little bit of her power is released.
She believed that if one day she used her power to harm the Beastworld Continent, her beast mark would definitely disappear. So she tried her best to benefit the beastmen instead of just thinking about herself.
Dahlia hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to follow Ripple's suggestion to solve her own problems.
"Hurry, cut this off, and this, and this! Be quick!"
Mēng Diandian nodded, following Lianri's instructions. With a swipe of her claws, she severed several points, causing the big red flower to shrink back in pain and tremble even more violently.
From the severed root, a black-green liquid oozed out first. Only after the liquid completely turned green did the ripples stir the power within, repairing the break and then directing the fierce creature to rebury the other's injured roots.
"Alright, be more careful from now on. Don't eat anything strange or unsanitary. If even your root system gets infected, there's no hope for you."
The great red flower was badly wounded this time. Its large flower head drooped, its energy gone, and it only managed to push a peacock-colored stone out of the ground with effort. This was a token of gratitude for Li's help.
After receiving the stone from Meng's hand, Lian Yi saw the peacock color stained on Meng's hand, and then came up with the idea of using this stone to dye fabric.nd gather with the others first.
