Casa, Harry, and Norz were even excited about this discovery; these days, their main food source has been the flesh of thorn fruits, with meat being distributed only about once every two days.
Even so, their meat reserves were already running low, which made the orcs somewhat anxious. Meat is important to orcs, it's the source of their strength.
Relying solely on plant fruits may allow the females to last a bit longer.
But if orcs go a long time without replenishing their meat intake, their bodies will quickly become weak and lose strength.
They chose a relatively spacious area to set up their tents, and Ji Nuan scattered some insect-repelling powder around the perimeter of the two tents; the red scorpions from a few days ago left a very profound impression on her.
