Chapter 264 Award Ceremony
Chapter 264 Award Ceremony
Before we knew it, it was already quite late.
Everyone had already eaten and drunk their fill, and they all lay lazily on the ground.
"Hmm, is everyone tired?" Ruan Mianmian was also a little excited at this moment. Looking at her people, she said playfully.
"no!"
Everyone remembered today's main event: the lucky draw. Judging from the leader's demeanor, there was nothing else to be confused about.
"Haha, since we're not tired, let's do our last activity for today!"
"A lottery! A lottery!..."
Everyone raised their hands and cheered, and the atmosphere reached its peak.
As soon as Ruan Mianmian raised her hand, everyone fell silent.
She smiled and took out a large box from behind her, which was filled with slips of paper with various rewards written on them.
"Let me explain the rules first. Everyone takes turns coming up to draw a slip of paper, and whatever you draw, you get the corresponding prize."
The tribespeople's eyes lit up, and they all lined up.
Since the beastmen were illiterate, Ruan Mianmian specially ordered a batch of cards from the system store.
The cards have illustrations of items from the lottery, and the beastmen can easily tell what they are at a glance.
The first one to go up was a little orc. He nervously and expectantly reached into the box and pulled out a slip of paper.
"Wow, it's a bag of candy!" The little orc jumped up with joy, and everyone exclaimed in envy.
Before they met the leader, they could only taste sweetness from fruit.
But ever since the leader let them eat sugar, it has become a favorite food for everyone.
Then everyone took turns going up on stage to draw prizes. Some people drew blankets, some drew tools, and some drew steamed buns...
Daman was lucky enough to draw a large bunch of bananas, which she shared with every elephant-man, and they were all overjoyed.
Rou drew a small bag of dog food, something she had been looking forward to for a long time. Right now, she was eating the dog food one piece at a time!
Miyue was lucky enough to receive a can of formula, which is great whether she drinks it herself or gives it to the baby.
When it was Zhi Shi's turn, he slowly reached in, pulled out a slip of paper, and his face lit up with surprise: "It's a backpack! This will be a huge help."
You should know that divination requires a lot of things, and it was very inconvenient for him to wrap them in animal skins every time.
At that moment, he happily drew a beautiful and practical backpack.
The backpack seemed to have been custom-made for him; its interior was incredibly spacious, capable of holding all the precious items he used for divination.
In this way, whenever and wherever he needs to use these items, he can easily take them out with just a gentle reach, which is extremely convenient!
Time flies like an arrow, and the lucky draw event is coming to an end in the blink of an eye.
Finally, it was the last participant's turn to appear—a young and energetic orc.
He took a deep breath to calm his excited emotions, and then carefully reached out and pulled a slip of paper from the cardboard box.
However, the moment the note was pulled out, he suddenly froze, as if he had been frozen in place.
A moment later, a hearty laugh burst from his mouth: "Hahahaha... It turns out I'm going on a mission with the leader!"
Upon hearing this, the other orcs around them cast envious glances.
You know, being able to go out on a mission with the leader is an extremely rare opportunity!
This means that not only can you get a close look at the leader's demeanor and wisdom, but more importantly, you will also have a great chance to make outstanding military achievements!
As the lucky draw concluded successfully, the atmosphere at the event became increasingly lively.
Next up is the moment everyone's been eagerly anticipating: the distribution of the "year-end bonus"!
For every orc in the tribe, this is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated moments of the year.
Especially after witnessing firsthand the astonishing transformations that Gray and the others underwent due to the acquisition of mysterious powers, their yearning for "miracles" burned like a raging fire.
Now, this expectation is about to become a reality. Everyone is filled with trepidation and anticipation, anxiously waiting for their own surprise to arrive.
"I'm sure everyone has been waiting for this for a long time, so I won't waste any more time. I believe everyone is well aware of their own contributions to the tribe, so now I'll start by announcing the tribe's best contribution award."
As soon as Ruan Mianmian finished speaking, the beastmen clapped their hands. This was the result of countless meetings with Ruan Mianmian; they had been assimilated by her.
"The winners of the Tribe's Best Contribution Award are: Sen, Yu, Yong, and Zhi!"
As soon as Ruan Mianmian finished speaking, everyone laughed happily.
No one questioned this decision. These four people were indeed the soul of the tribe. Without them, the tribe would not be as good as it is now. Everyone trusted them.
Upon hearing this, Sen and the other three immediately stood before Ruan Mianmian and knelt down to thank their leader for his kindness.
Ruan Mianmian took out four "Marrow Cleansing Pills" and gestured for the four of them to take them.
When everyone saw it was a "miracle," their eyes were practically red with envy.
Because of the strong reaction after consuming these "miracles," they decided to eat them later and watch Ruan Mianmian present the award first.
"Next, I will be presenting the Tribal Contribution Awards. The recipients are: Miyue, Rou, Xiao, Li, Duo, and Xue."
The females were stunned when they heard their names called, and it was only after the beastmen next to them nudged them that they came to their senses.
"Thank you, Chief!" Although the females didn't know why they had won the award, it didn't stop them from expressing their gratitude to the Chief.
"The development of a tribe cannot be separated from the addition of new life, and new life also represents the prosperity of a tribe. They are all females who have given birth to cubs for the tribe and have made contributions to the tribe, so the tribe contribution award is given to them!"
When everyone heard Ruan Mianmian's explanation, they all felt that the names were well-deserved, and they clapped their hands happily.
The males, especially the females, were overjoyed.
The females who didn't win awards were also envious, and they secretly resolved to exercise more with their males in the future so as to give birth to more offspring for the tribe.
Ruan Mianmian gave each of the six females a pill, and the females were all stunned, thinking it was a "marrow cleansing pill".
Seeing their misunderstanding, Ruan Mianmian explained, "This is a kind of health-strengthening pill, a type of medicine. After giving birth to your baby, you will definitely experience some health problems, and this is to help you recover."
As soon as Ruan Mianmian spoke, the females were extremely grateful.
The chief is truly putting himself in their shoes and thinking of them! In the past, the females in the tribe often died because they developed many health problems after giving birth to their babies. Now that they hear that this medicine is good for their health, they are all overjoyed.
Next, Ruan Mianmian presented the "Little Helper Award," which was mainly for the little orcs in the tribe.
She's usually very busy, and these little ones have helped her a lot.
So all the little ones won prizes, each receiving a small bag of candy, and they were very satisfied.
There was also a "Tribal Advanced Award," which was awarded to a few of the orcs, including Tu.
Tu and Yuan were the tribe's artisans, always on the move whenever there was a need. Whether it was building walls or mining spirit stones, they made exceptional contributions.
No one was surprised that they won the award.
Several orcs also came to kneel and pay homage to their leader, and Ruan Mianmian gave each of them a "Earth Rejuvenation Pill".
Everyone got excited again when they saw the "miracle".
"This pill is for your specific abilities. Although it's different from the ones for Sen and the others, it still improves your abilities, and it's specifically for earth-type abilities."
Ruan Mianmian's explanation was met with enthusiastic applause.
The leader is truly omnipotent!
The orcs in the tribe were extremely envious at this moment, and they really wished that something would happen in the tribe soon so that they could make a contribution.
It's so frustrating not to have a chance to make a contribution.
Following that, several more awards were presented, each carefully designed based on the unique characteristics and abilities of the beastmen.
Each award seems tailor-made for the winner, perfectly matching their strengths and talents.
The atmosphere at the scene was incredibly lively, with everyone's faces beaming with satisfaction and joy.
Everyone was extremely satisfied with the award setup, which was tailored to their individual circumstances.
At that moment, Ruan Mianmian glanced at the time and was surprised to find that the hour hand had already pointed to midnight.
It's worth noting that the beastmen rarely stay up this late to rest on ordinary days.
However, today, due to the rich and varied activities, and the great "stimulation" everyone received from this series of celebrations, no one feels sleepy at all.
Ruan Mianmian cleared her throat and said loudly, "Alright, the new year has begun, and the lively New Year celebrations have come to an end. But we cannot dwell on the joys of the past; instead, we should start afresh and embrace the challenges of the future with a fresh perspective. In this new year, let us work together to become better and stronger!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a unified roar erupted throughout the cave: "Become better! Become stronger! Become better! Become stronger!"
The stirring and heroic shouts echoed and surged through the cave like a surging torrent, lingering for a long time.
Every orc was captivated by the magnificent scene, their inner passion surging like a burning flame!
