Chapter 308 - There’s a Drought (1/2)

Thousands of beastmen swarmed towards the ape king’s castle, causing it to be tightly packed outside.

This was the first the ape king received such enthusiastic treatment in his ten years of ruling, and yet, it wasn’t done out of support for him. This caused him to have an extremely dark look on his face.

“Don’t panic, everyone, and don’t make any wild guesses. Although the water level in the river has significantly subsided, this is just a natural occurrence. Doesn’t this happen every year?” the ape king said amiably. His voice significantly calmed down the crowd of beastmen.

“But the tiger king said that the river will dry up if it doesn’t rain. Please use your magical powers to check!”

So many beastmen responded to this call that the ape king couldn’t turn them down.

The ape king clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and concentrated.

The noisy beastmen crowd immediately became silent. After three to five minutes, the ape king faintly opened his mouth, and his soft voice traveled far.

“I see the bed of the river… a thin stream of water flowing… drinking blood!”

The ape king opened his eyes as if he had woken up with a start, and his expression became darker. Of course, this could have been due to using too much of his mental power.

The beastmen’s hearts went up and down as the ape king spoke and were eventually in suspense.

“What drinking blood? We stopped drinking raw blood hundreds of years ago.”

“So the drought is real? But there’s still a bit of water in the river, right?”

“What happens after? Does the heavy rainy season come after that?”

The ape king staggered two steps and didn’t say a word. He held onto the wolf king and panted heavily.

Bai Qingqing, Curtis, and the others stood at the edge of the crowd. Bai Qingqing looked at the ape king with suspicion and asked, “Really? He can see the future?”
