Meng Tai's pupils contracted: "Have you seen the Orcs of the Gru Tribe?"
Ji Nuan nodded: "It happened last year. Some nomadic Orcs spread the news about our medicine for treating the worm disease in the Eneru Mountains to the Nia Mountain Chain. That's why they came across when the river froze over."
The expression on Meng Tai's face became somewhat serious: "Do you know who the Orcs that came to exchange medicine with your tribe were?"
Ji Nuan felt the tiny lion cub in her arms fluffing up a bit as she said: "The leading Orc is named Bosson."
Meng Tai's face turned pale: "Bosson!"
Ji Nuan nodded, looking somewhat confused: "What's wrong?"
Meng Tai explained: "The Divine Tree Clan has notified us, the first trading tribes, that because of the heavy toll the worm disease is taking, they will retain the Beast God Fruits for propagation, thus the quantity of Beast God Fruits available for trade at future major trading events will decrease."
