The Gray Wolf orcs were completely awakened, and the camp was in commotion and panic.
The orcs who were lying in ambush outside did not wait for the signal, but instead waited for Hu Qingshan and others who had escaped in a hurry. They had no choice but to retreat temporarily.
Fortunately, they hid well and the Gray Wolf Orcs did not notice them. They just patrolled around the camp.
After retreating, the animals stopped on the snow two kilometers away.
Hu Qinggao was grabbed by the black dragon's shoulders and flew in the air for a while before reaching his destination. The black dragon swooped down, put Hu Qinggao down when approaching the ground, and then also landed and transformed into a human form.
The animals heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the two men returned safely.
"Second brother, what's going on! How did you alarm the wolf orcs and wake them all up?" Hu Qingshan asked with a sullen face.
"How would I know what happened? When I went to check, I found a wolf beastman sitting outside. He wasn't sleeping. Didn't they say that all the wolf beastmen on patrol were dead?"
I get angry whenever I think of this fox Qinggao.
It almost got him into trouble!
After these words were spoken, several people looked at the bird orcs.
"I'm sorry, I, I indeed didn't see the patrolling orcs when I was on patrol, I'm sorry..." The bird orc knew that he had made a mistake, and quickly admitted it and bowed his head to apologize.
"Forget it! Fortunately, Long Mo is here. If Long Mo hadn't saved me, I would have been caught by now." Hu Qinggao saw that he was full of regret and apology, so he waved his hand and didn't bother with him.
Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, there's no need to dwell on them.
The other orcs who stayed behind looked at each other in bewilderment, and only came to the conclusion that they had been discovered, and it would be even more difficult to go in and find the females and cubs!
"Long Mo, have you found where the female and the cub are?"
"Why didn't you send us a signal just now?"
The beasts couldn't help but ask.
Hu Qingshan had already asked several other orcs when he escaped. When he heard this, his eyes darkened and he said in a deep voice:
"We checked almost all the hide houses and found neither the females nor the cubs."
"There are only two or three houses left that have not been checked, but there are a total of forty captured females and cubs. There is no way to fit so many orcs in them."
Hearing this, the beasts turned pale.
There is only one possibility, that is, they are not here at all.
Were they hidden somewhere else by the wolf orcs, or was there another beast that captured them
"Impossible!" Hu Qinggao slapped his forehead, looking incredulous, "Why aren't the female and the cubs here? Who else would have taken them away except for this damned group of wolf orcs..."
"It's impossible for a group of orcs to appear out of nowhere!"
Long Mo glanced at Hu Qinggao, took two steps forward, and his pair of eyes like cold ponds under his slightly furrowed brows were inexplicably dark, as if they were blended into the endless night.
A deep voice interrupted the beasts' speculation:
"I discovered another thing in the wolf orcs' camp."
Long Mo's voice seemed to have magic. As soon as he opened his mouth, all the beasts looked at him.
Hearing his stern voice, everyone's hearts unconsciously lifted, waiting for Long Mo's next words.
"What's up?"
"The leader of the wolf orcs is not in the camp."
Long Mo's eyes were icy, and his voice was also as cold as if it was tempered with a layer of frost as he answered coldly.
…
A quarter of an hour ago.
"Who! Who's outside?"
A scream came from the animal hide house, and the Gray Wolf Orcs in each animal hide house were awakened. The sound of animal hides rubbing against each other was heard, and it was the Gray Wolf Orcs getting up.
Long Mo's eyes darkened and he reacted quickly, lifting the animal skin and crawling into the leader's animal skin house.
However, when he got closer, he found that the animal skin on the ground was covered with a piece of wood that looked like a human figure, and it was not a leader at all.
“Damn it!”
Realizing that something was wrong, Long Mo clenched his fists and smashed them hard on the wood.
"Orcs are invading!"
"Everyone, hurry up and capture this invading fox orc!"
The bonfire outside the animal skin house was flickering, and loud shouts reached Long Mo's ears.
Hearing the word "fox clan", Long Mo raised his eyelids and looked outside the house with sharp eyes, which was the direction where the sound was coming from.
The next moment, Long Mo turned into a beast. The huge dragon body directly broke through the animal skin house. The dragon tail swept the ground, and the surrounding Canglang orcs were knocked away with wailing.
Before the Canglang orcs could react, the black dragon soared into the sky and took Hu Qinggao away openly under the siege of more than a hundred Canglang orcs.
…
Long Mo told the animals what he saw in the camp.
Hearing his solemn voice, the beasts had a bad feeling in their hearts.
"Why is the wolf leader not in the tribe? Where did he go..."
"Have you noticed that after the wolf orcs came out, the number seemed to be wrong. There were dozens less than we expected!"
"It seems to be true... They wouldn't have gone back to the tribe while we were out!"
The beasts were whispering about the various possibilities, their faces turning paler.
Go back to the tribe... Hearing this, Long Mo's face changed, and a sinister look flashed in his eyes.
"I'll go back to the tribe first. Jiaojiao might be in danger!"
After saying this, Long Mo set off towards the tribe.
"Hey! Long Mo..."
"Wait for us!"
Hu Qingshan and Hu Qinggao looked at each other and hurried to catch up, but Long Mo was too fast and soon they couldn't even see Long Mo's tail...
…
Gray Wolf Orc Camp.
Wu Liu walked out of the animal skin room, still covered with a large black animal skin, his entire face shrouded in the shadow of the hat brim.
He stood quietly in the noisy camp, looking out of place.
"What's going on? Why are you making so much noise? Don't you know that the leader is still resting?"
Langmie came out from the animal skin house next to Wuliu, speaking in a loud voice as if it was a loudspeaker, rough and violent, with great dissatisfaction.
Hearing the noise, Wu Liu turned his head and looked at him.
At this time, a little wolf orc ran over and said tremblingly:
"Brother Mie, Elder Wu, the leader, he, he is missing..."
"What!" Langmie's voice suddenly rose eight degrees. He turned around and looked at the little blue wolf orc with wide eyes, questioning him: "Why is the leader missing? Isn't the leader resting?"
"No, I don't know. I just went to report to the chief and found out that his house had been demolished. It was that dragon orc who did it..." the little blue wolf orc answered worriedly.
Langmie is well-known in the tribe for his bad temper. Except for the leader and Wu Lao, other orcs are afraid of him.
"That dragon orc must have captured the leader! Damn it, I'm going to kill him right now!"
When he thought of the motivation he had just heard, his face suddenly turned dark, the stubble on his mouth trembled, and he rolled up his sleeves to settle the score with Long Mo.
The little blue wolf orc trembled with fear and dared not explain.
"It's not him." The plain and old voice of Wu Lao sounded at the side, causing Lang Mie to stop suddenly.
