ould you let her get out of control!""No way, your subordinates are all idiots!"Ripple攤了攤手說道。"You"Professor Vincent's words were cut short as he was gripped by the ripples around his neck. The red eye...Now, no one knows what's going on within the clan, so Ripples first task is to contact the shaman of the ape tribe and get a better understanding of the situation before making any plans.

The Forest Quirk is a completely black monkey with agile movements, incredible jumping ability, sharp teeth and claws. Its fur is like needles, lying flat against its body when not threatened. Once attacked, they stand on end, making it difficult for the attacker to reach.

This group of forest boars was tearing into a mangled monkey carcass, clearly their spoils for the day. Ripples felt that the monkey had already lost its life force and could only sigh inwardly, there was no need to save it anymore.

A moment later, ripples received the flowers she had sent back. The white magnolia was stained crimson, clearly indicating an emergency situation.

The ripples tucked the dumpling into her arms and told Sai, "

"I will hold back these forest wraiths. You take Duo and Meng to the clan center to help, the shaman can't hold on much longer."

"Yes!"

Ripples gently exhaled a breath, communicating with the power within the Beast Mark, then began to transform snow into ice. The snow on the giant trees quickly melted and fused into countless icicles, piercing towards the Forest Chieftain who had gathered his troops like a hailstorm.

Screams and howls rose and fell, the unprepared forest ogre pierced through his eyeballs and brain with a precise ice spike, collapsing instantly and losing all vitality.

After a massive group attack, countless casualties were inflicted upon the Forest-dwellers. The few remaining ones quickly fled their original location, disappearing into the snow-covered forest with several leaps and bounds.

A roar of fury echoed from the center of the tribe, clearly signaling that Meng and Du had joined the fray under Sa's command.

Ripple rested for a while, tossed a piece of honey hard candy into her mouth, stuffed one into Tuanzi's, and then started running, swiftly advancing towards the center of the monkey tribe.

Along the road, you can see some carcasses of forest quails, they should have been killed by hawks and weasels.

As they neared the ape-tribe's treehouse, Lin saw Meng, Du, Sa, and a group of ape-beastmen bursting from a shield formation, battling with a horde of forest behemoths.

The original battle was the most bloody and shocking. One side fought desperately to protect their home, while the other fought recklessly for survival. The scene before them was a sea of red, but neither side showed any sign of stopping.

And supporting the defense shield was the tribe's shaman, she now had mostly females and young ones around her. They all anxiously watched the male members participating in the battle, while the shaman accurately focused on the ripples.

The ripples nodded to her, the beast mark on her brow flickering. This time, she called upon the power of the earth.

Beast God above, grant me leave to borrow the power of the earth to protect these females and their young.

As ripples chanted words under her breath, numerous dark brown tree roots erupted from the snow and wrapped themselves around the forest chieftain who was battling the beastmen. Though their hold was short-lived, it gave ripples enough time to thrust an ice shard formed from snow into their eyes.

As each of the forest wolves fell, those still fighting the orcs noticed something was wrong. When they realized their companions were dwindling, they let out a roar and turned to run.

He slapped one slow-moving forest ogre to death with a single palm strike. The other, not showing weakness, spat out some venom, causing the two fleeing forest ogres' speed to decrease until they finally fell from the trees and broke their necks.

The Sahuagin and the tribe also chased for a distance, confirming that the forest ogre had retreated, before coming before the ripples and transforming into human form. They knelt on one knee and thanked the messenger of the Beast God.

"No need to thank me, tend to your wounds first. Send the orcs to set up perimeter defenses and prevent the Forest Guardian from counterattacking."

"Yes! The messenger!"

He nodded his head in agreement and then took on the task of keeping watch.

"Strong, go get our wraps! Quick, you attend to the wounded of our people, I'll check on the Shaman."

After Ripple finished speaking, she used a vine to leap onto the treehouse where Wu was. Now only the young ones remained here, as the other females had gone to clean up the battlefield.

The witch's power was depleted, her face pale beyond recognition. She didn't even have the strength to thank the divine messenger, she only managed a weak nod towards Ripple.

The ripples didn't mind, the ape tribe could wait for them to arrive, largely because Witch had set up the defenses. So she stepped forward, reaching out to grasp the other person's wrist, and said with a gentle smile:

"Whoa, rude! Let me take a look at your condition."

A circle of little monkeys surrounded the witch. They had all just seen her, this powerful female who had helped their father, so each one sat quietly on the side, not bothering Ripples.

The ripples only touched the other's pulse and knew that the other was severely exhausted. So she mobilized the power in her beast seal, circulating it within her shaman body, giving her face a hint of color and looking less fatigued than before.

Thank you, messengers!

The witch tried to get up and thank him, but was held down by the ripples.

"Don't be so polite. I only borrowed the power of the Beast God to help protect its people."

"But I am still grateful that you traveled thousands of miles to help the ape tribe."

Though the genderless witch was weary, they still softly thanked them.

With a whimper, Tuanzi finally couldn't hold it in any longer and crawled out of the pocket on Lianyi's chest. He looked around curiously, then after catching a whiff of blood, he cautiously scanned his surroundings before turning his head towards Lianyi.

“This is my little treasure, Lei. He’s always with me and was born in the first month of the rainy season.”

He was raised very well by you.

Wu smiled and said.

"A little mischievous, but still very clever, bringing me a lot of joy."

Ripples was talking about what Tuanzi had done foolishly, while Wu thought it was the joy of raising a cub.

After a brief conversation, the ape-people gathered together under their chief's leadership and thanked Ripple one by one.

Meng and Du finished the task and came back to report to Lianyi.

The monkey tribe suffered casualties this time due to the attack by the Forest King, but fortunately, most of the females and young ones were saved. The remaining task is to reorganize the tribe and comfort the people.

These things were beyond the ripples' reach. She took Tuanzi directly to the treehouse that had been arranged for her, ready to spend the last few days of winter before returning to the seaside.

Warmth arrived suddenly, as if overnight all the snow had melted, revealing the forest's true form. Birdsong filled the air, and insects emerged from the ground, along with the most vibrant of life: little green shoots.

Ripple hadn't been idle this time. She had been helping Wu treat the injured members of the monkey tribe and giving pointers to the females on how to brew beneficial soups and broths. Once it was confirmed that Forest Chief wouldn't return, the leader of the monkey tribe, Gen, came to see Ripple in person.m the Successful Newspaper, but she still felt uncomfortable inside. After confirming that they had left, she continued with her own work.When Wenjing came into the family courtyard with fruits in the...
