CHAPTER 1296: CHAPTER 1295: POSTURE IS VERY IMPORTANT

The nomadic orc patrolling with him looked at him disdainfully, "Disgusting, what the hell is that? It’s flying around recklessly, what if someone accidentally gets it in their mouth? That’s so gross."

Despite being exhausted, Ji Nuan and Xiu Yan woke up early rather than sleeping in.

The orcs gathered together having breakfast, and Ji Nuan recounted the situation they observed yesterday. When they learned there were small islands in the middle of the Black Quicksand, the orcs sighed in relief.

Honestly, on that day, seeing Casa, an evolved beastman, struggle to crawl over, they really didn’t have much confidence in their own ability to do the same.

They feared that there was a high chance they would be reduced to ashes by the burning flames.

Therefore, the news brought by Shaman Ji Nuan was essentially good news for all ordinary orcs.

"Everyone, pack up your belongings now. After the flames die down, we’ll need to wait a while, so it will probably be afternoon. We must reach that island by tomorrow noon to be safe.

Everyone must have confidence, must persevere, remember the crawling posture Casa used yesterday. If you sink down, only Brother Xiu Yan, the sole flying orc, might not be able to rescue so many orcs, understand?"

The orcs nodded.

The skinny Damao scratched his head, "Shaman, you don’t need to worry. Yesterday, Shaman Harry organized us to train the crawling posture. We’re pretty standard now."

Ji Nuan didn’t expect Harry to have conducted training, and instantly gave him an admiring look, to which Shaman Harry smugly raised his eyebrows.

Of course, when they went out to check the situation, he, as a shaman, had to do something useful.

"Now, I’ll tell everyone something that Brother Xiu Yan and I discussed when we arrived yesterday: practicing crawling is just a precaution.

Now we have something very important to do."

She stood up and pointed to the stack of firewood behind her, "We need to tie all this firewood into rafts with ropes, because we have double-humped beasts."

When they heard about the double-humped beasts, the orcs were stunned. Everyone unanimously thought Shaman Ji Nuan wouldn’t bring these double-humped beasts along, but now she was telling them they would indeed take these big guys along.

Ji Nuan explained the method for making the rafts to the orcs. Although they were still puzzled about whether such things would be effective, they got busy.

Every orc tied a raft, and counting them, there were approximately over a hundred rafts.

She led the orcs to the edge of the Black Quicksand River, "There’s still some time before noon; we’ll train here. Crossing the river this time requires everyone’s close cooperation."

She grabbed a raft and tossed it in, then stood on it, and the raft floated steadily without sinking.

Xiu Yan picked up another raft and handed it to her, and Ji Nuan threw it in front of her raft. Just like that, one after another, the two orcs easily walked a long distance.

Then they returned the same way, "You all saw it, this is how my method works, so it relies on everyone’s cooperation. Now let’s all experiment together."

After several rounds of training, the orcs actually increased their speed, which was much faster than crawling across.
