orc planet

After Kisai hurried to the edge of the pool, what he saw almost froze his heart...Yi's face was pale, and she fell motionless on the bank, as if she was dead.

Kisai held back the strong fear in his heart, stepped forward and hugged Yi in his arms.It wasn't until the sound of a steady heartbeat in Yi's chest that Kisai found his breathing.

"Sai..." Yi opened her eyes weakly, moved a little, and felt another sharp pain all over her body.He grabbed Kissey's arm, with an extremely painful expression on his face, and it took him a long time to utter a few words intermittently.

"Baby... baby... cold, I'm so cold..."

"Shh, don't talk. I'll take you back right away, and you'll be fine."

Kisai hugged Yi horizontally, looked around but did not find the child, and his heart was already spinning for a while.At this moment, it is because of Yi Cai that he is trying to calm down and endure the pain in his heart for the time being.

When Kisai hurried back to the tribe, Yi had fallen into a coma, but kept crying and calling for the child in his dream.Kane and Dieter were sweating profusely, and it was hard for Yi to fall asleep peacefully after working for most of the night.

Kisai was running around in a hurry outside the house.Yalunte folded his hands on his chest and remained silent without saying a word.

"hateful!"

With a loud bang, Kissey's fist hit the ground hard.

"As long as I find out who did it, I will definitely tear him to pieces!"

Sirius sighed, pressing Kisse's shoulders that were trembling with rage.

"Calm down first."

"How can I calm down, I..."

"Kissy!"

Kane came out of the room at this time, interrupted his words, and his eyes slowly swept over Kissey, causing his heart to fall to the bottom of the valley.

"No... Ita..."

"I'm fine." Kane closed his eyes, still looking at Kissey with a complicated expression.

"There is something I must tell you, I hope you are mentally prepared..."

"..."

"Ita...he can't turn back into a human..."

"What do you mean..." Kissey took a few steps back in embarrassment, gritted his teeth and looked at Kane. "What the hell happened to Yi!"

"I don't know either." Kane's voice was weak.

"It seems that something has changed Yi's body, destroying the gene that has the ability to transform in his body... Moreover, it actually turned Yi from her original hermaphrodite into a complete male body..."

"No...how is it possible..."

Kissey looked at Kane in shock, unable to believe this fact.what is going on?Why did such a terrible thing happen when he was not by Yi's side!

Distraught, he opened his mouth bitterly.

"Is there no way to recover?"

"I'm sorry, Kissey." Kane shook his head resignedly. "Even I can't help it."

"……I do not care."

After a long silence, Kissey spoke slowly with a solemn expression.

"I don't care what Yi will become. Even if I can't become a human for the rest of my life, I am willing to guard him. But once he wakes up, how can he bear this kind of blow..."

Kissey closed his eyes in pain, and he still clearly remembered Yi's happy appearance when he became a human for the first time in his mind. He even jumped on both feet for a whole day without feeling tired.If you tell Yi now... No!Can't tell him that Yi will break down, and he can't bear the consequences of losing Yi...and-their children!

hateful!What on earth happened!

Kisai held his head in pain, and Yahuat also suffered in his heart.

When Yi had an accident, the kitten also disappeared.Although all the clansmen have been mobilized to search in the forest, there is still no trace of him.

Yi's situation was so serious that he didn't dare to imagine what the kitten would suffer.

God... don't let the kitten get into trouble again...

"I'm already asleep. Kissey, you can go and see—"

Dieter also came out of the room at this time, and before he finished speaking, he saw a figure rushing into the inner room quickly.

Kane went out first, and the others also exited the cabin one after another, leaving them alone time.Dieter closed the door, sighed softly, and prayed for them silently in his heart.

Kane stood outside the house, with a stern look in his eyes, and ordered in a deep voice: "Aarendt, you lead people to continue searching for the kitten's whereabouts."

"Siris, you accompany me to the pool."

This kind of thing happened on the territory of the tribe, it was a provocation to them at all, which made all the tribesmen hold a sigh of relief.More importantly, the other party dared to hurt Yi!Hurting his people must pay the price!

Kane stood by the pool, staring at the calm water without saying a word.

"There are no traces of other animals walking around. It can't be a land creature. It should come from the sky or the water."

"No! No." Kane looked up at the starry sky and said slowly.

"Look Sirius, there is nothing above this water pool that can be covered. If it invades from the sky, it will reveal its whereabouts before it gets close to the water pool. Yi will not let him catch it foolishly, once he finds the vision, he will Immediately hide in the bottom of the water. Also, if you look at the pool, it is covered with water plants and reefs. I think the person who attacked Yi must have been lurking in the water, and he did it after calculating the timing."

"But there is one thing I can't figure out. How did he get into this closed pool?"

Sirius listened carefully to his analysis and expressed his guess.

"Could it be that... he was in ambush here a month ago?"

"It's unlikely." Kane thought for a while and shook his head, "He only took Yi's child away. If he had hidden in the water pool long ago, he would have had many chances to make a move this month, why did he do it now? "

"In the water... child..." Kane muttered to himself, looking at Sirius, "what are we ignoring?"

"Child..." Sirius frowned and pondered, suddenly he remembered something, and said, "Kane, do you still remember the examination on Yi's child?"

"I remember." Kane nodded, "Just a few days ago, it was checked that the other respiratory system in the little mermaid was fully developed. You mean...they are waiting for the little mermaid to grow up?"

Kane boldly guessed, "From Yi's sleep in a coma, I can tell that that person or those people have only one goal—the little mermaid, and they have waited for him for a whole month. I originally thought it was the murloc's revenge. , Now that I think about it, that’s not the case at all. A complete respiratory system... Either in the water or in the sea... In the sea! Why didn’t I think of it!”

Kane suddenly realized, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Sirius confidently.

"If my guess is correct, the one who kidnapped the baby, hurt Yi, and caused the kitten to disappear—it should be the mermaid!"

"Kane!"

An anxious cry suddenly came from a distance, Kane and Sirius both turned their heads.Molier hurried towards them and spoke out of breath.

"Y-Yi woke up!"

Kane and Sirius looked at each other, then rushed back to the tribe.

Hearing the news of Yi Su's awakening, everyone rushed to Kisai's wooden house.Yi sat on the bed sobbing softly, while Kissey hugged him and kept whispering something in his ear.As soon as Kane entered the door, everyone's eyes immediately turned to him, and Yi even spoke eagerly.

"Patriarch, save the baby, he was snatched away, save him!"

"Don't worry, speak slowly. What happened?"

"I, I waited for Kissey to come back in the pool as usual." Yi sobbed, recalling the sudden nightmare in the afternoon.

"First I heard the cry of the baby, and then a figure emerged from the water... He, he was so strong, he forced me to eat something, and I couldn't resist... After that, the kitten chased me That man jumped into the water... Later, later I didn't know anything... Child! Patriarch, save my child, the baby is still so young, he..."

"Yi..." Kane gently wiped the tears from Yi's face, and gave him the firmest guarantee in a soft voice. "Don't worry, we will definitely find the child!"

"Also, Yi, do you remember what the person who snatched the child looked like?"

"Remember." Yi nodded and spoke in pain. "He's also...a mermaid..."

really!The light in Kane's eyes flickered, and there was a low cry from the crowd.

Mermaids, legendary creatures, even if there is Yi, they still feel puzzled and mysterious about the mermaid race.I didn't expect that it would be Yi's tribe who snatched Yi's child!

Mijia and Weikat looked at each other, and they both remembered the past.

Dieter lowered his eyes, pondered for a long time and then slowly said, "I think...Mufasa should know something about mermaids."

In the huge cave deep in the forest——

Mufasa's eyes slowly and steadily swept across the group of people in front of him, and finally stopped on Kane.

He raised his eyebrows, "What do you want me to do?"

Dieter stepped forward out of the crowd, meeting Mufasa's gaze.

"Something happened to Yi."

"Yi? You mean the little mermaid?" Mufasa thought about it carefully, and then he understood. "I know what you're going to ask, but I can't break my oath."

"I know." Kane looked at him and said calmly, "I won't ask you about the mermaid, I just want to know some details about your distress."

"That's fine." Mufasa crossed his arms and nodded to Kane. "As long as it doesn't involve my oath, I can tell you anything I want to know."

"That's good." Kane pondered for a moment and asked the first question.

"Mufasa, do you still remember where you met the Zerg?"

"The lower reaches of the Tana River. I think it should be... the place past the third branch."

Kane roughly flipped through the topographic map around the continent in his mind, and continued to ask the second question.

"You said that you once entered some strange waterways by accident. Do you remember the details?"

"I have an impression." Mufasa pondered for a moment, then slowly recalled: "It can't be called a waterway, they are more like a long and narrow cave. Very narrow, the water is not deep but very cold. The whole cave is not straight , there are many bends that communicate with other caves.”

"Last question, how did you get out?"

"This..." Mufasa recalled the tragedy before, with a hint of frustration in his tone.

"I was seriously injured and couldn't move. I didn't know how long I floated along the current. I just remember being washed into the sea by a waterfall."

"My question is over. Thank you, Mufasa, it was a great help."

Kane cast a grateful glance at Mufasa, and Sirius saw something in Kane's smile.

"Do you... know where the mermaid is?"

"Almost, I'll talk to you more carefully when I get back."

Kane looked at the back of Mufasa waving away, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

He had heard about Dieter and Mufasa from Mijana.Regarding Dieter's abducted child, it reminded him of the deeds he heard when he was still in the Earth Army...

The war between humans and aliens has lasted for several years, and some cities have been occupied by Zerg.When the earth army recaptured the city, they found that all the unarmed citizens had been slaughtered, only a few children under three years old survived.However, that child has been brainwashed by the Zerg and reduced to a mindless tool controlled by the Zerg...

If that child survives, it may become a puppet for the Zerg.What's more, the Zerg has been extinct for so long, that child is probably destroyed with the Zerg as early as 20 years ago.How does this teach him to talk to Dieter?

What's more, the chance of that child's survival is very small... Forget it, why bother bringing up Dieter's sad past, let's put it aside for now...

"Kane?" Sirius' call pulled him out of his thoughts.

"Sorry." Kane smiled apologetically at all the clansmen who were waiting for his next step with wide eyes.After regaining his composure, he spread out a topographical map on the desktop.

"This is our tribe." Kane pointed to a large plain upstream of Lake China and made a mark.

"This is where Mufasa was attacked." The slender fingers stopped at the third branch point.

"This place is very special, look around."

Kane looked up and smiled.The finger draws a large circle in the southeast direction along the third branch point, reaching the sea in the east, including the entire third tributary of the Tana River.

"This area is all karst terrain. The formation of this terrain is the result of long-term dissolution of groundwater in the limestone area."

"What do you mean?" Not only Sirius frowned, but other clansmen also looked at Kane puzzled.

"It's okay if you don't know." Kane tapped the circled area on the map with his hand. "Karst terrain is very special. It will form a rocky terrain on the surface, and when the surface water flows along the joints or fissures in the limestone, it will continue to widen and deepen the cracks and cause corrosion. cave systems or underground channels.”

"To put it simply, there are a large number of criss-crossing caves and underground caves under this area." Kane turned his head and smiled at everyone. "I've always been curious. Mermaids need to return to the land to give birth, but they have been hidden so perfectly for thousands of years. How did they do it? Now I have completely figured it out. They rely on these underground caves."

"You mean..." Kisai's pupils shrank rapidly, "The mermaids return to the land through these underground waterways, we can find the mermaids as long as we follow the waterways!"

"It's not that you can find it, but you have already found it."

Kane raised the corner of his mouth and pointed to an area in the sea.

"Although the coastline of this karst area is very long, and there are many islands near the sea, this sea area is the most suitable place for mermaids to live."

"Ah? Why? I don't think it's any different from other islands." Ryan blinked in confusion and couldn't help asking.

"Because this is the confluence of cold and warm ocean currents. The violent stirring of sea water brings a lot of nutrients, which provide good nutrients for fish. Mermaids live in groups, and they will certainly not disperse too far to look for food. This is exactly the place The natural fishing ground is definitely the best place for them to inhabit."

A flash of inspiration flashed in Kane's mind, and he couldn't help but think of the undersea base Ye had mentioned.

Pacific Ocean, Pacific Ocean... If this ocean is the Pacific Ocean, then this continent is not the former Asian continent. Isn't he standing on that ancient and fascinating Chinese land?No wonder, no wonder the orcs here are closer to the Asian yellow race.

However, in the vicissitudes of tens of thousands of years, both the continent and the ocean have undergone many changes, and the splendid civilization that humans once had has long been annihilated in the long river of time...

Kane sighed almost inaudibly, looking at the clansmen surrounding the map and studying the map with great interest, he felt a lot of emotions for a while.

"What's wrong?" Sirius held Kane's hand and looked at him worriedly.

"It's okay, I just remembered something from the past."

Kane smiled frankly at him.The past and all kinds of pasts were put down as early as the moment he joined hands with Sirius.Now he is just the partner of Sirius and the patriarch of the tribe, living in this brand new land as an orc.

"Aarendt." Kane said suddenly, looking at his silent son.

"I know you are worried about the kitten. You must firmly believe that he will be safe. I guess there must be a waterway in the pool that communicates with the outside world. You should look for it carefully."

As soon as Arendt's eyes lit up, he immediately got up and was about to walk outside the house.

"Remember!" Kane called to stop him, "Come back immediately after the investigation is clear, don't risk going deep alone."

Arendt paused, nodded slightly, and disappeared into the night.

Kane lowered his head and continued to look at the map. His fingers followed a large river called Zitaia outside the pool, and slowly moved to the forest in the southeast...

So sad……

What a painful feeling... can't breathe... almost suffocate...

The kitten waved its hands in the darkness.It's cold and wet all around, is he in the water?Water... that's right!Baby!The kitten opened its mouth suddenly, and countless tiny air bubbles rushed out of his mouth, reflecting crystal clear brilliance in the darkness, but disappeared like a shooting star in an instant.

His body was so heavy... his neck felt like someone had strangled him, and he was so painful that he couldn't breathe...

It's so sad... The kitten felt as if he was in another dimension, and there was a huge whirlpool beneath him, which was dragging him into a bottomless abyss.

In a trance, strands of silver threads suddenly floated beside her, as if they had suddenly emerged from the darkness... Light, with a familiar hue...

who is it?Who's hand held me... The kitten tried hard to open his eyes, but his vision was blurred, and he only vaguely saw the exit ahead and the flashing blue brilliance.

Yi?

"Yeah!"

The kitten screamed and woke up from the nightmare.He vaguely remembered that he chased the mermaid who snatched the baby into a waterway, but he didn't expect the waterway to be so long, and he almost died in the water due to lack of oxygen.But the strange thing is, why did he seem to see... Yi before falling into a coma?

impossible!Is he wrong?The kitten tapped its head and decided to put this doubt aside for the time being.Now the first question is-

Where is this place?A swamp is not like a swamp, and a jungle is not like a jungle. I have never been to such a place.

The kitten looked at the surrounding environment, feeling a little apprehensive.He woke up in an unfamiliar forest, the river behind him was dark and turbid, as if a crocodile would jump out at any moment.

The more the kitten thought about it, the more frightened it became, and it took a few steps forward cautiously.But the forest ahead was not much better, it was also pitch black.Under the faint moonlight, strangely shaped trees and unusually tall thorns cast weird shadows on the ground, like a monster with teeth and claws, as if it would pounce on the next second...

The kitten hugged its shoulders, hesitating whether to go into the forest or stay here for a night?

While hesitating, he suddenly heard a "plop" sound of falling into the water, as if something was swimming towards him.The kitten was so frightened that it ran into the forest, running wildly, not even daring to open its eyes.After running for a long time, he stopped and took a breath.But before resting for a long time, there was another "rustling" sound from the grass not far away, which scared the kitten to run wildly again.

The petite figure groped in the dark forest, and finally found a small tree hole, which could just accommodate his entire body.The kitten was out of breath at this time, and finally found a shelter, and soon fell into a deep sleep after being frightened.

When I woke up again, my stomach was growling with hunger.The kitten crawled out of the tree hole and decided to find food to fill its stomach first.Now it's not like before, and the little Arendt in his stomach can't be hungry no matter what.

He patted his face to cheer up, now is not the time to be depressed, for the sake of the baby in his stomach, he must be strong!The kitten shook its head, summoned up 11 energy, and slowly explored this strange jungle...

God, what the hell is this place!After walking for a long time, I didn't see a tree with fruit!

At the beginning, the kitten was full of fighting spirit, but later on, his hands and feet became weak, and his limbs became weak from hunger.

"It smells so good..." The kitten wrinkled its nose and sniffed greedily the scent of food in the air. Could it be that he was too hungry and had hallucinations?This is too real, even the smell is so good.

The kitten was drooling as it walked forward following the scent.His eyes lit up as soon as he pushed aside the grass!There is really food!The deliciously roasted, golden and shiny suckling pig on the shelf, could it be that the heavens looked at him with pity and prepared it for him! ?

The kitten looked left and right, but there was no one, and he didn't care about so much. Fill his stomach first!

Taking a sip cautiously, his tired little face suddenly glowed.The kitten gorges on the food indistinctly, its cheeks are so full that it bulges and bulges, like a little mouse eating crazily, and people can't help sweating for him, eating like this Fa still choked to death!

"Woooo!"

Suddenly the kitten stretched its neck and beat its chest fiercely with its small hands—it choked on eating too hard.

The life-saving jug was handed over in time, and the kitten raised its head and drank a big mouthful of water before it had time to thank.After the damned piece of meat was finally swallowed, the kitten collapsed, gasping for breath.

"Is it better? Do you want to drink more?"

The kitten was startled when he heard the sound, and turned his head abruptly.I saw a man holding a pitcher and looking at him sympathetically.The kitten also looked at the man in a daze, forgetting how to speak for a while.

It's really... a person that can't be described in words.It's a female in her twenties, with the most handsome face a kitten has ever seen.Most of the orc females were beautiful, but the person in front of her didn't look coquettish at all, her brows and eyes were full of heroism, and even her figure was taller and taller than ordinary females, which made her feel more like a patriarch.

"Little guy, are you alright?"

The man stretched out his finger and waved it in front of the kitten, and immediately recalled the kitten's sanity - he was still holding someone else's food in his hand.

"This, this... I'm sorry."

He was caught stealing food, and the kitten blushed immediately, and looked timidly at the owner of the food.

"It's okay, I didn't catch it anyway." The man waved his hand generously, looking up and down the kitten curiously.

"I've never seen you before. You probably aren't from a nearby tribe. Little guy, why did you come to this forest alone?"

"I, I am..."

The kitten was only halfway through talking when he saw a piebald python "hissing" coming down from the tree and approaching them.

"Snake!"

The kitten screamed in fright, but the man chuckled and waved towards the boa constrictor.

"Little flower, come here."

The boa constrictor obediently moved to the man's feet, but its eyes were fixed on the half of the food left on the ground.The man immediately understood and patted the big snake on the head.

"Xiaohua, go find Lansas. Tell him that a little guest has come, and ask him to catch more prey."

The boa constrictor seemed to understand, turned around and swam away, leaving the kitten dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.

"This, this snake can understand your words?"

"Almost, Xiaohua is very smart." The man watched the python leave with proud eyebrows, and then turned to introduce himself to the kitten.

"My name is Rhine. How about you, little one? What's your name?"

"I, my name is Kitten."

"Kitten? Pfft—" Rhine couldn't help laughing, and then looked at the kitten apologetically, "I'm sorry, your name is too...specific, haha, sorry."

It was the first time that someone laughed like this in front of someone. The kitten was embarrassed and stood there at a loss. Fortunately, Rhine just laughed for a while and then restrained himself.

He added some twigs to the fire, and sat down with the kitten.

"Little...uh, kitten, why did you come to this forest alone? Don't you know it's dangerous here?"

Hearing his question, the kitten put on a bitter face and told Rhine the whole thing.

"The big tribe in the upper reaches of the Tana River..." Rhine tilted his head and thought for a while, "It's far away from here. I haven't been there. I'll ask Lansas later. But, about the mermaid you mentioned , I’ve heard people say it.”

"You know mermaids!"

The kitten yelled, and he couldn't be blamed for being too surprised, because before Yi appeared, even the knowledgeable patriarch Kane didn't know the existence of the mermaid race.

"I don't really know," Rhine smiled.

"I just heard people say it. I heard that there is a mysterious island in the sea, where half-human, half-fish orcs live. They rarely come to land, and only pregnant mermaids will swim to the mainland's freshwater lakes to give birth. produce offspring, and then go back to the ocean.”

"Ah, so mysterious..." The kitten lowered its head in frustration.In this way, isn't the chance of finding the baby back extremely slim?

"Don't be too disappointed." Rhine shook her finger and said mysteriously: "I heard that in order to avoid other orcs on land, mermaids will swim back to the mainland from the secret waterways that connect to the sea. These waterways are criss-crossing all over the ground , very secretive, few people except the mermaids can discover it. As long as you find the hidden underground waterway, there is still a chance to find the mermaid.”

"Wow... Rhine, you are so good, you know everything!" The kitten shouted excitedly, and looked at Rhine with admiration.

Rhine blushed dryly and coughed a few times, and said embarrassingly: "Actually, I heard these from Lansas' father. He has seen mermaids before!"

"Really? Then can I meet him?"

"Unfortunately," Rhine shrugged, "even I don't know how to find him."

"what?"

The kitten was stunned for a moment, and Rhine was amused by that silly, round-eyed expression.He nodded the kitten's nose amusedly, and said, "Because he disappeared ten years ago."

"That's it..." The kitten lowered its head in disappointment, looking at the flames constantly dancing in the bonfire.Although Lansas' father could not be found, at least he knew a lot of news about the mermaid, which was not bad.We must find a way to go back to the tribe and inform Arendt and them.

"By the way," the kitten said hesitantly, and asked the doubt that had been hanging in his heart, "Who the hell is Lansas?"

"He!" Rhine rolled his eyes, showing a sly smile, his dark eyes shining brightly against the firelight.

"He's my brother." Seeing Kitten's puzzled expression, he added, "Lansas's father is my mother's brother, but we are not related by blood, because Lansas was rescued by my uncle of."

"However, I have always regarded Lansas as my younger brother." Recalling the past, Rhine couldn't help laughing.

"When he was young, he always looked arrogant and conceited, and he didn't like to talk to people. If it weren't for me, he would definitely be bullied by others. But he is also cute, every time I call him Lansas It will be like a puppy that sees a fleshy bone, and it will run over, haha..."

"Lai, Rhine..." The kitten swallowed, tremblingly looking at the black figure that appeared behind Rhine at some point.Because of the backlight, he only saw an unusually tall figure.

"Thank you for your 'care' when you were young, my dear 'brother'." There was a strong taste of banter in the thick and pleasant voice.

Rhine was taken aback when he heard that, and the smile on his face grew stronger.He turned around and put his arms around the neck of the newcomer. "What I said is the truth."

After speaking, he turned his head and gave the kitten a mischievous look.

"This is my dear brother and husband, Lansas."

"You, hello!"

The kitten stood up from the campfire, rubbed its hands, and looked nervously at the tall orc who was slowly stepping out of the shadow, giving him a heavy sense of oppression.

The firelight slowly illuminated Lansas's face, and the kitten's eyes widened from a calm expression.Pointing to the pair of golden and green eyes, infinitely strange, he blurted out in shock——

"Mufasa!"
