Stranded on a deserted island with my beautiful boss, who used to make me kneel to do my daily work, now I want you kneeling before me, serving me...
...Looking into Mu Cuo's bright eyes, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for this kind-hearted girl.
Born on such a deserted island, they live in constant fear and anxiety; perhaps they are actually in a vulnerable position in this place.
If the Utas tribe is really as powerful as they claim, then they are already quite formidable.
Moreover, the situation is now so dire that it's not a matter of whether I want to help or not; it's that I absolutely have to help.
This matter not only involves their Brunois tribe, but also the safety of all of us, so it is imperative to do it.
I took a deep breath and looked at Muta and Mucuo: "Don't worry about this, we will do our best to help."
Wang Ping stood behind me without saying a word, but Chen Jian was getting anxious and quickly moved closer to me. He was about to speak when Wang Ping stopped him.
Muta glanced at Chen Jian, but didn't say anything. She just looked at me and bowed deeply: "Thank you."
After saying that, the wooden tower turned and left.
Mu Cuo looked at me with a mixture of expectation and unease in his eyes: "My brother is going to discuss the next steps with them. You and your companions should also discuss it and then come find us... This matter concerns everyone, so I think we should work together to think of a solution."
After Mu Cuo finished speaking, he gave me a deep look, then turned and left.
After seeing that the brother and sister had left, Chen Jian shook off Wang Ping and then looked at me.
"Brother Sihai, this matter is clearly between their two tribes. Why drag us into it? We're already in a dangerous situation. If we get involved, our survival will be in question. I think you're being too impulsive."
When Wang Ping heard Chen Jian say that, he looked at Chen Jian and shook his head.
"Sihai's decision was made out of necessity, don't you know that? If pirates have really come to this deserted island, do you think they would have let us go even if we hadn't gotten involved? Don't forget, pirates are ruthless killers, otherwise why would Mucuo call them devils? And now that we're in the Brunois tribe, even if you try to explain, do you really think you can explain it clearly? Do they really believe you that we have no connection? So Sihai is doing this to protect us all."
After hearing Wang Ping's words, Chen Jian looked unhappy. He turned to look at me, sighed deeply, and turned back to the camp behind him.
Looking at Chen Jian's angry expression, I couldn't help but think that Chen Jian's temper had been incredibly volatile lately.
But thinking about it, it makes sense; with so much pressure, it's understandable to have irritable thoughts.
I took a deep breath and patted Wang Ping on the shoulder: "It's good that you understand me. I think we should still go and discuss this with them properly."
Wang Ping nodded, and I looked at Wang Xiaoxiao: "You take the child and keep an eye on the others. Don't wander around. After all, the people in this tribe are still a bit wary and resistant to us. Stay here and don't move. We'll discuss other things properly when Wang Ping and I come back in a while."
Although Wang Xiaoxiao was very worried, she also knew that this matter was imperative, and nodded deeply.
"Then you must be careful, my child and I are waiting for you."
I didn't say anything more to Wang Xiaoxiao, and took Wang Ping to the room with the wooden door we had visited that day.
When we arrived, Mu Cuo and Mu Ta were there, along with several older indigenous people. They were all sitting there with furrowed brows, clearly thinking about what to do about the matter.
When Mu Cuo saw Wang Ping and me arrive, he seemed relieved. I quickly went up to him and asked, "What are your plans? Or do you have any suitable arrangements?"
Mu Cuo took a deep breath and shook his head: "To be honest, if we really clash with the tribes of Ertas, our chances of winning are not high. But I think you must have a good way to help us win, because Amu did a lot of things before he died, making it impossible for the tribes of Ertas to defend against him. You all came here from the same place, so I believe in you."
I saw Mu Cuo looking at me intently, and I couldn't help but feel that her belief in me was putting a lot of pressure on me.
But no matter what, we should at least give it a try, right?
I took a deep breath and looked at the wooden tower.
Muta and the older indigenous people exchanged glances, then looked at me and nodded. He then pulled a leather bag out from under the wooden table.
He unfolded the leather, and I realized that it actually resembled a map.
Although it is covered with many strange lines and patterns, a closer look reveals that the map actually depicts the shape of their deserted island.
This deserted island is shaped like a large whale, surrounded by the sea, and has many towering mountains on its body, with dense forests surrounding the mountains.
The wooden tower pointed to one of the spots and then said stiffly, "This is our camp."
I understand what he meant. He meant that the location he was referring to was the underground camp we were in now.
Then Muta pointed to a small hill in the distance, looked at me with a serious expression, and said, "This is the Uetas camp."
I nodded. I didn't know what scale his map was, but given the distance of this place from the sea, the map must be quite large. That meant that the Utas tribe and the tribe they were currently stationed in were actually very far apart.
And it would be very difficult for the Utas tribe to find them if they really wanted to.
After all, they had already placed the tribe underground, so this idea must have come from their mother.
However, the problem now is not with the Utas tribe, but with the pirates who have already arrived on this deserted island.
If the only formidable enemy is the Utas tribe, then things are somewhat easier to handle.
Firstly, even if they have advanced weapons, they might not know how to use them, and even if they do, they might not use them well. Besides, our group isn't exactly incompetent either.
If a conflict really occurs, having fought them before and knowing their tactics, it's not so easy to define whether you win or lose.
But things get very complicated once you join one of these pirate groups that have taken so many lives.
Firstly, we don't know what kind of weapons they have.
Secondly, if a conflict were to break out, we would not know their numbers, and these pirates are used to running rampant with malice. If they were to capture us, they would definitely not give us a chance to rescue us. Once we lose our position, we would only face certain death. Therefore, we can only win this war and cannot afford to lose it.
Otherwise, if we lose, we won't even have a chance to turn things around...
