Chapter 34: Changes in Tiger and Lion City
The sky was turning pale as a fish belly turned pale. After a night of heavy rain, all the surrounding tribes were affected.
Because the terrain was too low, many cubs were drowned in the heavy rain; landslides occurred in the surrounding areas, and many orcs were injured; the houses collapsed, and although they were built with straw and branches, it was not a big deal for young orcs, but many old orcs were injured. Coupled with the heavy rain, the wounds began to become red and swollen, and signs of infection appeared.
In a world without antibiotics, even the smallest infection can kill you.
When Yuan Xiao pulled Lai Ya out of the tent, they heard a wailing.
That stems from the reluctance to leave loved ones and the regret for homeland.
Zehui and Yunfeng were talking to the surrounding leaders. When they saw Yuan Xiao coming, they greeted her and turned to greet her.
"It's raining so heavily, will our tribe be in trouble?" Yuan Xiao asked worriedly.
"Our tribe is located at a high altitude, and before I came out, I led everyone to reinforce the house, and also asked other elders to help take care of it, so it shouldn't be a problem."
Ze Hui's words made Yuan Xiao feel a little relieved, and he continued: "But I am also a little worried. We have already discussed it. Let's go into the city together today to see what the Lion King has done and deal with it as soon as possible, and then we will hurry back home."
Zehui's thoughts coincided with Yuan Xiao's. Originally, they had planned to have fun in Tiger City before returning, but plans could not keep up with changes, and now they just wanted to go home as soon as possible.
The tribes in this area are all located in the basin, and Tiger City, located in the center, has the lowest terrain. Originally, because of its low terrain and the surrounding mountains to protect it from wind and rain, Tiger City has always been known as a "feng shui treasure land."
Now, this proud advantage has exacerbated the casualties caused by this natural disaster.
Not knowing what the situation in the city is, Ze Hui didn't want to take Yuan Xiao with him rashly. He asked Yuan Xiao to stay here first, and he and Yun Feng would go into the city to take a look and try to come back as soon as possible.
Yuan Xiao understood what Zehui meant. She told him not to worry, that she would take good care of herself and asked him not to worry.
Zehui and his group entered Tiger-Lion City with trepidation.
The scene before them was worse than they had expected.
Because of the inability to drain water, rainwater accumulated in large quantities, and the deepest part in the center was almost up to the chest.
The houses in the city were severely damaged, and almost nothing was spared except the fortress where the royal family lived.
The orcs were dead, injured, and corpses were floating everywhere.
They looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
After a while, Zehui said, "This situation is really too bad. Let's go to the Lion King to discuss countermeasures."
Everyone nodded and didn't linger any longer.
Soon, they arrived at the royal fortress. It was called a fortress, but it was just a relatively high bungalow built with stone slabs and covering a large area.
This kind of house is considered quite luxurious in this area.
They shouted at the door for a long time, but no one came out to open it, so they had to push the door open together and went in.
The fortress was silent and there was not a single person in sight.
Everyone had a bad feeling and checked every room.
Suddenly everyone heard someone crying.
"In the room ahead!" someone shouted.
Everyone rushed into the room and saw a man and a woman crying softly around the bed.
There were four slaves kneeling on the ground next to them.
The female's eyes were red from crying. She wiped her tears and looked clearly at the people in front of her. She couldn't help sobbing again.
"You... have come at the perfect time. Come over here and see him off."
Everyone looked at each other and slowly stepped forward.
Lying on the bed was a middle-aged man with a grayish face and he had long since stopped breathing.
He is none other than the Lion King Zhan Yao!
Everyone was shocked. How could the lion king, who was in his prime, suddenly die? And at this critical moment!
The crying female was the lion king's partner Ying Qiu. She didn't want to disturb Zhan Yao's peace, so she led everyone to the main hall to discuss matters.
The male beast standing next to Yingqiu is the Lion King’s younger brother Zhan Bai, who is also Yingqiu’s partner.
He carefully helped Yingqiu sit on the throne. Her belly was slightly bulging, and it looked like she was pregnant.
"Queen, do you know why the Lion King called us here for something important?" asked a tribal leader.
Ying Qiu shook her head: "The Lion King has had nightmares for the past two years and wakes up in the middle of the night. The witch doctor said that his time is up and he developed a medicine specifically for him, saying that taking it can prolong his life, but he refuses to take it..."
At this point, Yingqiu started crying again. Zhan Bai brought her a glass of water and comforted her for a long time before she calmed down a little.
She continued, "He refused to take the medicine and sent a message asking you to come over. We asked him what happened but he wouldn't tell us. It rained heavily last night and we wanted to ask him how to deal with it, but we didn't expect...we didn't expect him...he actually..."
She said these words with difficulty, then choked up and could no longer speak, and covered her face and cried bitterly.
An elder of the tribe stood up and said, "My queen, please accept my condolences. The city is in chaos right now and there is no leader. We must appoint a king as soon as possible!"
Lai Ya's father Zhuang Lin stepped forward and suggested: "The two lion king brothers have always had a deep brotherly love, and Zhan Bai knows Tiger Lion City very well. It would be perfect for him to be the king."
Yun Feng couldn't help but frown after hearing this: "Orcs have always respected the strong. Even small tribal leaders have to go on the stage to pass. Tiger and Lion City is no exception."
Yun Feng was right. Lion King Zhan Yao was invincible, and everyone in the Eternal Forest knew it.
He fought in the ring for three days and three nights, until he was covered in blood, and defeated all the challengers.
If we casually let Zhan Bai take the throne now, even if he becomes king, it will be difficult for him to win the support of the people in the future.
What's more, Zhan Bai's ability is far inferior to his brother's.
Everyone was talking about it, and Yingqiu didn't know what to do.
At this time, Zhan Bai finally spoke: "What Elder Yun Feng said makes sense, how can you be the king without ever being on the ring?
But now, misfortunes never come singly. Unexpectedly, the rainy season came early and a natural disaster struck. Next, the rain will get heavier and heavier, and the city will be flooded in a few days.
As for the area within the Tiger and Lion City, Zehui's Tiger Tribe has the highest terrain, so I propose that we hold the election on the arena there in fifteen days.
My brother is no longer around, so I am the one guarding the ring for him. All orcs in Tiger-Lion City, regardless of race, can attack the ring.
The rules remain the same. As long as someone comes to challenge you, you have to keep fighting. The winner who persists to the end will be the new king of Tiger and Lion City!"
These words caused everyone to be silent.
Ze Hui seemed to be thinking about something. After exchanging a glance with Yun Feng, he responded to Zhan Bai: "Okay."
Everyone agreed with this proposal, and Yingqiu ordered people to spread the news.
Next, they will evacuate the survivors and then head to the Tiger Tribe.
