For the next period of time, we were all busy preparing for what was to come. Everyone was very worried, but we were able to proceed in an orderly manner.

Xiao Qiang and I have been in a much better situation recently.

Wang Xiaoxiao and Liu Jiaojiao had to take care of the child while also cooking for everyone.

Seeing how nervous everyone was, I was also extremely worried.

But no one expected things to develop so quickly. That afternoon, Chen Jian and his team were outside sorting through the iron ore they had found when they were suddenly attacked by lynxes that rushed over.

Fortunately, these indigenous people originally lived in this area and were quite familiar with these lynxes. Chen Jian and we were also seasoned veterans, so even when the lynxes launched a sudden attack, we were still able to hold them off.

But while they managed to block this wave, they couldn't stop the next one, because these lynxes, once they left alive, would definitely go and spread the word.

Since that old native man from the Utas tribe can train these lynxes, he must have a way of communicating with them.

Once those lynxes run back, our camp will be completely devoid of mystery and cover.

The Utas tribe will definitely rush here immediately to attack us and then rescue the pirate we captured.

Even though we tried our best, and some lynxes even ate the meat that had been carefully prepared for us and laced with anesthetic, several lynxes were still injured and escaped.

On that day, Chen Jian and his men returned to our current underground camp from outside, and they all looked very worried.

Muta frowned deeply: "It's over. All these preparations are now useless."

Chen Jian listened to Mu Ta's words but did not refute them. He also looked at me with a furrowed brow.

“Brother Sihai, these lynxes are coming in strong, and there are more of them than we saw before. So even though we have the vines and nets outside, we haven’t caught many. We don’t know how many escaped. But judging from the current situation, we probably won’t be able to stay in this camp for long.”

After hearing Chen Jian's words, Mu Cuo immediately looked at Chen Jian and nodded: "We had already thought about this before. Although this camp is the most secluded and largest in scale at present, we still have other camps in reserve. Why don't we leave now?"

Wang Ping immediately stepped forward and shook his head in refusal: "No, we have so many people now. Besides those who can fight, there are also the elderly. In addition, there are three people on our side with children. How can such a large group hide? It's already dark. Who knows what ambushes might be waiting outside? After all, those natives are alright, they only have cold weapons. But don't forget that the Utas tribe still has those pirates helping them. If those pirates have already set up ambushes around here, then going out now will be a death sentence for us."

After listening to their analysis, I felt that staying here was definitely not a good idea. If the Utas tribe wanted to launch a strong attack, then the terrain we were in was not ideal.

They can flood this place with water or release thick smoke into it. If they do that, we'll be dead before we even have a chance to fight them, so we have to leave this place.

I immediately turned to look at Mu Cuo: "How far is that backup camp you mentioned from this camp? If we were to leave now, how long would it take us to walk?"

"Is the equipment there adequate? We still have many cold weapons that we haven't had time to manufacture. Could that place be used to manufacture cold weapons?"

Mu Cuo's expression turned somewhat unpleasant after hearing this, and he quickly shook his head.

"No, there are no kilns there. These iron ores need to be forged at very high temperatures. So if we abandon this place, we'll have to rebuild a kiln if we want to forge iron ores again. But in the current situation, we have no way to get soil from there. I'm afraid we won't be able to build this kiln."

Now it's my turn to have a headache. Putting aside how far the camp is from here, the fact that I can't build this earthen kiln is really annoying.

But staying here under these circumstances would be tantamount to waiting to die.

I thought about it for a while before turning to Mu Cuo: "Go tell your brother that we need to leave here now."

Before Chen Jian could say anything more, Wang Ping interrupted him, saying, "Sihai, have you thought this through? If we go out now, the situation outside is unknown, and we might fall into a trap."

I nodded and looked at Wang Ping very seriously: "Of course I know that the current situation is extremely unfavorable for us, so I will never fight a battle unprepared."

"I'll take a few people out to scout the situation in a bit. If the situation is alright, or if we don't find any ambushes, then you should take this opportunity to leave quickly. Remember, you must protect all of us. After Mu Cuo and the others arrive at the new camp, we will go with them. Don't worry about anything."

Wang Ping clearly disagreed after hearing this, and was about to say something more when Mu Cuo looked at me and started urging me: "Since you've already decided to leave, let's not delay any longer. I'll go find my brother now."

After saying that, Mu Cuo left quickly.

Chen Jian and the others were sighing and lamenting, but since things had come to this point, there was no point in delaying any longer.

Tsk immediately turned around and ran back to where we were currently camping.

Wang Ping sighed deeply, turned around, and left.

I immediately found Mulin. Although I couldn't communicate with Mulin, I knew that Mulin was still very clear-headed.

Another thing is that Mulin must know about their new camp. When we go out to scout the situation later, it's good to take Mulin with us so that we have a way out.

Not long after, Mu Cuo arrived with Mu Ta. After learning of my plan, Mu Ta nodded and felt that continuing to stay like this was not a good idea. Therefore, leaving this place was necessary.

But Muta said he wanted to come with us too. After all, this evacuation wasn't just about us. As the current leader of the Bunois tribe, he also had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the safety of all the tribespeople.

I didn't try to persuade him, because this matter was indeed very serious. If we failed, we might all die here tonight, so having a better chance would give us a better chance.
