Traveling through the world of beasts: Encyclopedia System

Huan Chuan suddenly heard the sound of footsteps in water behind him. Turning back, he saw the familiar pair of emerald green eyes.

That was Ye who had transformed into a beast: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Let's fight. If you win, they will have to stay away from here!"

Seeing Ye showing his fangs, the mermaid on the opposite side also grew its ear fins, and it was obvious that both sides had a strong desire to fight.

Huan Chuan quickly pulled Ye's hair and said, "Wait a minute. If you can't convince me, you can fight again."

When Ye heard his words, he took a half step back and retracted his fangs, but his posture was still to protect Huan Chuan behind him.

Huan Chuan looked at the mermaids and said, "We don't want to fight. We are only staying here temporarily. When our numbers increase, we will move to the cliffs. Once there, we will pose little threat to you."

Seeing that the mermaids had calmed down a bit, Huan Chuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Rather than an enemy, I think you would rather have a friend."

The mermaids looked at each other, still refusing to relax: "How can you be sure that you won't hurt our people?"

Huan Chuan was somewhat helpless. It was really difficult to let these barbarians let down their guard. "First of all, we are all land creatures. We have no chance of winning a fight with you in the sea. We are also a barrier for you here. All threats from land must pass through us first before they can find you."

These were words he came up with on the spur of the moment to fool them. Whether the mermaids would be fooled in this way depended on their fate.

The mermaids discussed for a while and were ready to go back and tell the Mermaid King. Huan Chuan called out to a mermaid and said, "Wait, you guys drain the water here first, otherwise we won't be able to sleep!"

The mermaid took a look at the water under Huanchuan's feet and let the water retreat outside their tent, but it was obvious that they still hoped that the water could intimidate them.

Huan Chuan leaned on Ye's shoulder and couldn't help but sigh: "Why is it so difficult to have a family?"

Ye nudged Huan Chuan, who was so sleepy that he started to yawn, with his nose, and watched the tears oozing from the corners of his eyes and rolling down his long eyelashes.

He couldn't help but stick out his tongue to lick the tears from his eyes.

Huan Chuan laughed softly and couldn't help but hugging Ye's big head and rubbing it: "It's great to have you by my side."

If we ignore Huan Chuan's dog-stroking action, this scene might be quite ambiguous. Ye also thinks so.

Huanchuan couldn't bear it anymore and went back to the tent to sleep.

The next morning, he heard the sound of a horn, which was different from the sound of the horns they made themselves. He stood up immediately.

Looking at the water stains on the ground, Huan Chuan patted his chest. Fortunately, he used the hammock last night, otherwise he would not be able to sleep at night.

But Huanchuan might be the only one in the tribe who was so lucky. The others all walked out of the tent with grim faces. The animal skins they slept on were completely wet, and they basically didn't sleep much last night.

They ran to the beach and looked at the group of familiar-looking and annoying mermaids. They gritted their teeth and even the sub-beasts hid in the corner and watched.

The people who came today were the same mermaids from last night. This time, Ye maintained his human form and stood beside Huan Chuan. Although he was not as tall as the mermaids standing on the waves, his aura was not inferior to them at all.

“Our king said that you can stay here, but you are not allowed to go near the ocean.” The mermaid swung her tail, splashing water.

Huan Chuan shook his head: "Impossible, we need salt, and we need some fish in the sea as our food."

When Ye heard about eating fish, his nose wrinkled.

Hearing Huan Chuan talking about fish, the leading mermaid was obviously interested in Huan Chuan. He wanted to get closer to Huan Chuan for a closer look, but Ye stepped forward and stopped him: "What are you going to do? This is my sub-beast."

The mermaid raised her eyebrows, obviously surprised. Huan Chuan looked a little embarrassed, but he didn't feel the slightest rejection in his heart. He covered his chest with his hands, having a vague sense of foreboding.

The mermaid returned to her original position and looked at Huan Chuan: "Orcs on land never call creatures in the water fish. Where did you hear this term from?"

Huan Chuan was stunned: "That's what people said where I was originally from."

The mermaid's eyes narrowed into slits, then quickly opened again, her eyes full of excitement: "You are very interesting. My name is Viola, what's your name?"

"Huanchuan." Huanchuan's introduction was very concise. I didn't expect that mermaid was not a single-character name.

Viola was obviously pleased by Huan Chuan's self-introduction, and he finally smiled: "One of our sub-beasts is called Lu Yuanming, and you look a lot like him."

This name made Huanchuan feel very familiar. Compared with Norman, the name Lu Yuanming obviously came from the same place as him. He barely suppressed his inner excitement and said nothing.

Viola did not force him, but just looked at him and said: "If you don't want to be with this barbarian, you can come to our mermaid tribe. We are very fond of sub-beasts here, and we will never let you get wounds like that."

After saying that, they disappeared into the waves. As for the issue of getting close to the sea water, they obviously agreed.

Ye couldn't help but grin in the direction they left: "Damn mermaid!"

After venting his anger, Ye turned around and looked at the wounds on Huanchuan's legs. Those bloody holes were gradually healing, faster than Huanchuan had expected.

"I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well." Ye's aura suddenly became low, and he said guiltily.

Huan Chuan touched Ye's head and said, "This is not your fault. Didn't you kill all those stray orcs? It doesn't matter."

Seeing Ye still looking a little sad, he patted him on the back and said, "Let's build our home first, otherwise, your people will really be abducted by those mermaids!"

Compared with the wolf tribe, they planned the layout of the entire tribe first, which even included schools and nursing homes, as well as delivery rooms specially prepared for the birth of sub-beasts, although there are not enough animal skins and time now.

However, seeing the messy environment of the wolf tribe, Huanchuan decided to at least separate the functional areas.

"We can use this place as a place for commodity trading, a handicraft factory, and food storage..." Huanchuan was very excited about planning his new home.

Ye watched from the side, his heart filled with sweetness and happiness. He couldn't help but start fantasizing about a life with a wife and children and a warm bed.

This burning gaze made Huanchuan unable to concentrate at all. His mind kept recalling what Ye had just said. A voice lingered in his ears: Ye doesn't like me, does he?
