Orc Girl's Tribal Daily Life

Chapter 58 Monkeys are not all the same.

This was a very dangerous task, and young Ge had to control the distance between himself and the swarm of bees with extreme precision.

They shouldn't be too close, nor too far apart.

If the distance between them gets closer, young Ge will directly enter the attack range of the Drunken Flower Bee.

The Drunken Flower Bee is not the kind of "little honeybee" that needs to be 100% close to its prey before it can attack with its stinger.

Although they do die within a day after being detached from their stingers, they use more than one method to attack with their stingers.

The Drunken Flower Bee can launch its stinger at a considerable speed with great precision, but its attack range is relatively limited, only about ten meters.

Therefore, if young Ge gets too close to the swarm of drunken flower bees, he will likely be attacked by a barrage of stingers. In that case, if he is accidentally stung even once, he will basically be finished.

However, if, for safety reasons, the distance between them and the Drunken Flower Bees is too great, making it impossible for the swarm of Drunken Flower Bees to catch up with Young Ge, that would also not work.

After all, young Ge's task was to lure these Drunken Flower Bees away. If the distance was too great and the Drunken Flower Bees at the back gave up the chase and chose to return to the hive, then the tribesmen still near the hive might be in danger.

Young Ge would never let that happen.

He needed to keep these Drunken Flower Bees occupied for longer so that his people would have more time to deal with the Flower Bears and bring them back to their stronghold.

—It's not as simple as just carrying those drunken bears away and leaving.

Flower bears are pack animals with a highly sensitive sense of smell, enabling them to distinguish different plant fragrances and find the most suitable and attractive plant flowers for flower bees.

At the same time, they can also use this powerful sense of smell to find their companions.

In order to prevent the bear tribe from finding their stronghold and seeking revenge, the orc warriors in the hunting party had to do everything they could to remove their own scents while taking the bears away, so that the bear tribe would have no way to seek revenge.

While they were doing these things, they also had to be careful of the Drunken Flower Bees in the hive not far away. Although most of the Drunken Flower Bees had been attracted away by the young man with the jam, there were still the most crucial queen bee and some of her guard Drunken Flower Bees in the hive.

If the hunting party senses a threat to the hive, the Drunken Flower Bees inside will swarm out and attack the hunting party, so the hunting party must be as careful as possible.

This naturally slowed down their work speed, requiring young Ge to buy them more time.

However, being too determined can sometimes lead to overexertion.

The tug-of-war between Young Ge and Drunken Flower Bee lasted so long that Young Ge, who had been running headlong, suddenly ran out of the explored area.

When hunting, hunting teams carefully explore different territories to determine the types and distribution of wild animals within the area, in order to avoid accidentally trespassing into the territory of any dangerous beasts.

Faced with many large beasts, the orc warriors were naturally fearless. After all, they all had the trump card of beast transformation, which allowed them to fight to the death.

However, the orc warriors were helpless against certain small creatures, like the Drunken Flower Bee, which could be crushed with a single pinch but carried various terrifying poisons.

Aside from hoping that the antidote prepared by the shaman would work, all I could do was try my best to avoid coming into contact with those poisonous creatures and getting poisoned.

Therefore, it is very important to only operate within the areas that have already been explored, especially for young Ge who is acting alone, with only two tribesmen nearby to provide support.

—Although young Ge accepted the task of attracting the Drunken Flower Bees, the deer would not actually let him complete the task alone. Two tribesmen would follow behind him.

If anything happens to young Ge, one of these two tribesmen will be responsible for rescuing him, while the other will take over his task of keeping the Drunken Flower Bee swarm occupied to prevent them from returning to the hive.

However, because young Ge's attention was more focused on the swarm of Drunken Flower Bees behind him, he ran out of the area without noticing... The two members of the hunting team behind him immediately sounded a whistle to warn him.

He signaled to the young man that it was time to stop there, to quickly drop the fruit paste he was holding, shake off the drunken bees, and return directly to the stronghold.

Although they had not yet received the whistle signaling the end of the game on the other side, given the circumstances, abandoning one or two prey that they could not deal with in time was nothing compared to the safety of their people.

No one will blame young Ge.

After all, it was prey that was picked up for free, so the loss wasn't that great.

But young Ge was not willing to give up. He felt that he could do more, so after thinking for a moment, he blew the whistle of refusal.

He doesn't want to stop; he wants to continue.

Unable to stop the young man, the two tribesmen had no choice but to continue following behind him, "bombing" a swarm of drunken bees in the unfamiliar territory of wild beasts.

It was the territory of some wild beast, and it didn't take any measures to conceal its scent or hide its figure. It just openly rampaged through other people's territory... The two tribesmen just watched the young man Ge's figure, and their scalps began to tingle.

However, since the young man kept going, the two of them really couldn't do anything about him. They could only try their best to observe the surrounding situation and rely on their hunting experience to judge the types of wild animals in the territory, providing the young man with some informational assistance.

Knowing the types of wild animals here would at least make me feel less uneasy than I do now.

Fear often stems from the unknown, but once you know the species of wild animals and the methods and means of hunting them, they become prey, and you are no longer afraid.

Luckily, one of the older members of the tribe discovered a pile of wild animal droppings and identified the species of wild animal living there as a ghost monkey.

Monkeys and apes are wild animals that are somewhat similar to humans. They often possess higher intelligence and more complete sociality than other wild animals. They know how to use tools, set traps, and remember kindness and grudges.

Different monkeys and apes have different characteristics and lifestyles, and therefore react differently when they encounter humans.

Around Outpost 5, the tribe encountered a massive "monkey tribe," the only wild animal tribe that the tribe did not hunt.

Moreover, when necessary, the tribespeople can even ask the monkey tribe for help, and they will enthusiastically provide various forms of assistance—for a fee.

There are no Earth Star Stones in the Taz Forest, and even if there were, it wouldn't be a place that the Spirit Monkey Clan could approach, let alone mine or collect them.

Therefore, for the monkey tribe, the various Earth Star Stone weapons in the hands of the tribe members are very popular and valuable items. They are willing to provide various kinds of assistance to the tribe members, as long as they exchange Earth Star Stone weapons.

The Earth Star Stone weapon attracted not only agile monkeys, but also demon monkeys.

However, compared to the friendliness of the agile monkeys, the ghost monkey tribe chose to "openly rob" them. Once they discovered the tribe, they would try every means to ambush and kill them, appearing and disappearing like ghosts, and as disgusting and annoying as rats in the sewer.

Most importantly, the demon monkey tribe not only steals the tribe's Earth Star Stone weapons, but also turns the tribe into their food... They even force the tribe to transform into beasts before killing them to obtain more food.
