The Iron Head Eagle circled around the Blue Grassland. Meg focused all his attention on the area below, but he still could not find any trace of the Polar Black Goats.
If they really lived in the Blue Grassland and were about to become a food ingredient for Mamy's, then at least there should be an objective amount of them. It shouldn't be that hard to find, right?
"System, could it be that your information is wrong? Or … did you lose your goats? "Meg asked in his mind.
"Please complete the mission independently." The System replied.
Meg rolled his eyes, "If the goats weren't in the Blue Grassland, you would be a dog."
"Please respect the System, the System is not a dog System!" The System said seriously.
"Hehe, I praised you for raising the goats well, so you are a shepherd dog." Meg laughed.
"Of course, the System is an all-rounded God of Cookery System, shepherd …" The System's voice paused, and suddenly became angry: "Isn't a shepherd dog also a dog?"
"I don't know if a shepherd dog is a dog, but you are a real dog." Meg rolled his eyes. In such a big grassland, who knows where the System raised the goats.
"Look, there are tents there, it seems like there are shepherds." Yabemiya pointed to the right and said.
Meg looked in the direction of her finger. It was already near the northwest border of the grassland. In the distance, there was a tall snowy mountain. The melted snow from the snowy mountain converged into a river, meandering into the grassland. The tents sewn from various animal skins were set up along the river's banks.
"Since there are shepherds, then let's go down and take a look. Maybe they know where to catch the goats." Meg had an idea and signaled the Iron Head Eagle to descend.
"Woo — —"
The shrill sound of a horn came from the shepherds' tents. The women and children ran back into the tents. The men held their longbows and spears and came to the front of the tents. They looked at the giant eagle that swooped down with vigilance and fear.
In the Blue Grassland, they had never seen such a huge eagle. The snow eagles they raised were not even as big as one of its claws.
However, they had nowhere to retreat. Behind them were their homes and loved ones.
"Chief, what's that?!" A young man looked at the old man standing in front of him and asked in a trembling voice.
"It might have come from the back of the snow mountain. Don't panic. If its target is the sheep, let it eat. If its target is the tent, we have to stop it even if it has to die!" Eddie said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
The herdsmen replied in unison.
However, the giant eagle didn't directly rush towards the tent. Instead, it circled around and slowly landed on a nearby mound. Immediately after, a group of people dismounted from the giant eagle's back.
"Chief, look, there's someone on the eagle's back!"
"Those people don't seem to be hostile towards us."
When the herdsmen saw this scene, they were all shocked. However, their expressions also relaxed a lot.
"Don't let your guard down. We still can't be sure if they are good or bad." Eddie said in a low voice. His eyes were as sharp as a falcon's as he stared at the group of people dismounting from the eagle's back.
There were a total of 12 people — one man, nine women, and two children. Judging from their attire, they didn't seem to belong to the grassland. Being able to tame such a giant eagle as a mount, they definitely weren't ordinary people. They were just an ordinary nomadic tribe on the grassland. How could they afford to offend such people?
"They seem to be very afraid of us?" Amy hugged Ugly Duckling and looked at the herdsmen who were holding bows and spears in the distance with confusion. "We are clearly so cute."
"Meow, meow ~" Ugly Duckling acted cute in her arms.
Amy glanced at it, and said without hesitation, "That doesn't include you."
"Meow …" Ugly Duckling was instantly discouraged. It rolled its eyes and lost its dream.
"We are considered uninvited guests. It's normal for them to be vigilant. We just have to act normal later." Meg smiled as he led the group in the direction of the tents.
These herdsmen didn't look very different from herdsmen from other places. The Blue Silver Grass provided them with a rich grassland that was hard to find in the northwest, and the snow water solved their drinking water problem.
However, perhaps because of the Blue Silver Grass, these herdsmen's skin had a tinge of blue in addition to being tanned all year round. However, it wasn't to the extent of the Pandora natives. They were basically no different from humans.
"Stop! Who are you people? Why are you here! "Eddie shouted loudly.
Meg stopped about 20 meters away from those herdsmen, and said with a smile, "Hello, we are here for a holiday. We were attracted by this blue grassland. We have no ill intentions."
He was originally worried that these herdsmen didn't know the common language, but it seemed like this older herdsmen was proficient in it.
Eddie sized up Meg. This young man didn't look like a powerful person. His physique wasn't even as good as the young people in the tribe, and he wasn't equipped with a sword. His smile was gentle, and he didn't look like a bad person.
Beside him stood a little girl of about four or five years old, holding a strange little thing in her arms.
Behind him was a group of beautiful women.
Yes, very beautiful women. The grassland couldn't produce such beautiful women. Whether it was the cold wind blowing from the snowy mountains or the long day of scorching sun, they all made the women in the grassland lose their exquisiteness.
Of course, to be able to have such a group of beautiful women meant that this man must have a very honorable identity. He was definitely not someone a small tribe like theirs could provoke. This was the principle he learned when he was young and adventuring outside.
The herdsmen looked at the women behind the man and were a little stunned. This was a beautiful scenery that had never been seen on the grassland, and it was also a beauty that they might never see in their lives.
After confirming that the other party wasn't hostile and wasn't someone their tribe could provoke, Eddie put away his longbow and signaled the herdsmen to lower their guard. He put one hand in front of his chest and bowed slightly to Meg. He said respectfully, "Honorable guests, welcome."
When the herdsmen saw how humble Eddie was, they hurriedly put away their inappropriate expressions and gazes. They lowered their heads and bowed nervously.
"No need to be so polite, we just happened to pass by. We heard that the barbecued mutton on the grassland is very good, so we wanted to try it." Meg said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, we want to eat sheep, the kind that can run." Amy went forward and pointed at the sheep that were leisurely grazing in the grassland not far away.
"What a cute little girl!" The herdsmen's eyes lit up when they saw Amy. The herdsmen's children grew up on horseback and crawled and rolled in the grassland. They were all little devils in the mud. They had never seen such a delicate little girl who looked like a snowman.
Eddie's eyes lit up and he patted his chest confidently. "Barbecued mutton, this is what the Buck tribe is best at. Honorable guests, please come in. I'll ask my tribesmen to slaughter the mutton and roast it for you personally."
