Living in the Beast World With a System - Chapter 208

“Will it be a long trip?” Yuan Qi frowned and looked at her.

There were quite a few beast warrior escorts with him on this journey. However, if they were to split up, the number would not be many.

Wu Yue nodded. “There is one type of herb I have only ever seen near the border between the Black Wolf Tribe and our Snow Tiger Tribe territory.”

She continued with a calm tone. “I plan to ask the Black Wolf Wu about it. If he does not have it either, then we will have no choice but to go there ourselves.”

Yuan Qi gave a small nod. “That place is quite far.”

After speaking, he looked at Wu Yue. “You stay here and teach the beastmen how to boil the herbal medicine. Tell me what the herb looks like, and I will ask the Black Wolf Wu myself.”

Wu Yue thought that was reasonable. She opened one of the leaf packets and took out a specific herb. “This is the one. We need at least twenty of these.”

Yuan Qi nodded. “Do not worry. These are all people of the Black Wolf Tribe. If there is hope they can recover, they will not refuse to help.”

After saying this, he took the herb and turned to leave.

Wu Yue entered the straw hut and checked the half-beastmen warriors’ injuries. Aside from one who was in the worst condition, the rest looked slightly better.

She noticed that the body temperatures of the other half-beastmen warriors had already gone down a little.

Looking at the thin half-beastman warrior lying in the corner, Wu Yue sighed. “System, do you think he can pull through?”

The system stayed silent for a while before replying. “I am not sure. But his condition is indeed dangerous right now.”

Wu Yue looked at that half-beastman warrior in silence for a moment before she turned to go outside and check on the beastmen brewing the herbal decoctions.

Perhaps because they knew this medicine could save lives, the beast warrior men were being extremely careful.

They stood around the stove attentively, watching over the pots as if one wrong move would ruin everything.

Yuan Qi returned very quickly, holding a few familiar herbs in his hand. Wu Yue’s eyes lit up. “You got them?”

But he shook his head and handed over the herbs. “The Black Wolf Wu does not use this herb often, so he only had a few of them.”

He added with a thoughtful look. “Based on what you said, we still need to make the trip.”

Wu Yue smiled and nodded. “The other herbs we need are nearby. Once we head out later, we can collect those. With these few you brought back, I can already prepare several packets. That gives us a bit more time.”

Yuan Qi let out a breath of relief. The border area between the two tribe territories was a long distance. The current medicinal packets were indeed not enough.

The little female had worked so hard to heal the half-beastmen warriors. If they died just because of a lack of herbs, all her efforts would have been in vain.

“I already spoke with the Black Wolf Wu earlier. We can set out first thing tomorrow.”

He really did handle things like someone who had eaten more salt over the years. Everything was arranged so well.

To the Snow Tiger Tribe’s surprise, when they went to feed the half-beastmen warriors medicine that evening, two of them had already woken up.

Though they still could not move, at least they could open their eyes and even say a few words.

They could also drink the medicine by themselves during feeding.

Smelling the bitter taste, the two conscious half-beastmen warriors looked enviously at their still-unconscious comrades nearby.

What should they do? Right now, they really wished they could pass out again. But their bodies were too strong and their spirits too alert.

Tears rolled down their faces as they gulped down the medicinal liquid that made them question their entire existence as beastmen.

At the same time, in the same place, the Black Wolf chief wore the same dog-like expression of utter defeat.
