Although he had made sufficient mental preparations, one day a month later, the hunting team returned with heavy faces shortly after leaving, saying that they saw many people walking towards the Sharp Tooth Tribe, which might be the Divine Blessing Tribe. Wu Yue's heart sank.
It was a sunny day today, the plants were growing vigorously, the animals were foraging leisurely, and the nearly four hundred people were busy with their work, with expressions of calm satisfaction on their faces.
He didn't want to break all this.
But the newcomers were enemies, not friends. It was impossible for their peaceful lives to remain untouched. With a sigh, he said to Xiao, "Let's follow our previous agreement and have everyone enter combat readiness."
Xiao immediately went to make arrangements. Except for the elderly and children, all adult men and women were divided into teams. Those who could shoot arrows were equipped with bows and arrows to defend the city walls, and those who were agile were arranged to patrol the forest to prevent the enemy from invading from the forest direction.
Those who had bows and arrows used them, those who had spears used them, and those who had neither tied their self-defense knives to long wooden sticks to serve as spears. The entire tribe waited quietly in silence and tense preparedness.
Just five kilometers away from the Sharp Tooth Tribe, the leader of the Divine Blessing Tribe, Black Wolf, heard his men report that they had just seen the Sharp Tooth Tribe, but they quickly escaped. He then pulled up the corner of his mouth and sneered.
They dare not face the enemy head-on, they are just a group of cowardly rats.
He gave the horse a light kick, directing the still unruly animal to walk back a few steps until he reached an old man sitting on the ground, drinking water and resting. "Hey, old man, can you still walk? We're almost there. If you can't, just stay here and wait for death, so as not to slow down your journey day by day."
The old man quickly raised his head and said in a not-so-standard accent: "I can walk, I can walk!"
If anyone from the Sharp Fang Tribe were here, they would immediately recognize the old man before them as the Horse Witch. It seemed he was lucky not to die after being expelled.
But now he looked a little pitiful. His fur was torn, old and dirty, his hair was messy, and his skinny body was covered with various scars.
It seems that I am not very lucky.
Ma Wu struggled to climb onto a horse and catch up with the team, glaring at the black wolf in front of him with vicious and hateful eyes.
These damn barbarians! He helped them train their horses, but not only were they not grateful, they even treated him as a horse training slave!
After that, they sent people to the Liya tribe to exchange salt, but when they came back, they beat and scolded him, and forced him to tell them how to build houses with stones, make pottery and make weapons.
How could he know how to make these things? But the people of the Blessed Tribe didn't believe him. He was really scared after being beaten, so he could only recall the kilns he had seen a few times in the Sharp Teeth Tribe and copied them. He then made utensils out of clay and put them in to burn. But every time he burned, it broke, and he was beaten again.
He really couldn't bear it any longer, so he could only find an excuse that there were no materials for making pottery and weapons near the Shenyou Tribe. He thought he could take the opportunity to sneak out, but the people of the Shenyou Tribe were wary of him and only sent people to farther places to find soil or stones and bring them back for him to identify.
Among these mud and stones, he found a yellow stone that could be melted to make weapons. The things made were very similar to the ones in the hands of the young leader of the Sharp Tooth Tribe!
Thanks to this thing, he finally didn't have to be beaten or scolded, and he could have enough food and clothes to eat during this ice and snow season. However, he was taken out at the beginning of the growing season. These people from the Blessed Tribe were armed and set off towards the Sharp Tooth Tribe in a menacing manner.
This is really great!
He couldn't help but imagine that the so-called divine messenger Wu Yue was also beaten, forced, and enslaved like him. Haha, if that were the case, would he still be so arrogant? Humph, he must be even worse off than him!
For this reason, he spoke haltingly in the common language on the way here and introduced Wu Yue's magical qualities to Heilang, which also aroused the fierce and brutal leader's interest in Wu Yue, and he ordered his subordinates to capture him alive.
It’s better to capture him alive. If he dies too easily, he won’t be satisfied!
The group sped up their progress until the outline of the city wall appeared faintly in the distance, then they slowed down a little.
Black Wolf asked the person beside him, "Is this the city wall you mentioned?"
"Yes." This person had been to the Sharp Teeth Tribe to exchange salt before, so he knew the situation quite well. "When I came here, the city wall had just begun to be built. I didn't expect it to be so high now."
"Hehe, you like to hide in your shell, right? I think the Sharp Tooth Tribe should be renamed the Turtle Tribe." Black Wolf sneered and did not take this thing seriously.
However, as the group continued to move forward and the complete city wall came into view, his expression gradually became less attractive.
The wall was tall and wide, with people even walking around on it, surrounding the entire tribe with a tight and thorough defense. The entrances and exits were also blocked with thick logs, and for a moment, it was really unsure where to start the attack.
Wu Yue and Xiao climbed up the city wall after hearing the patrol's report. He gasped at the sight of the incoming troops: at least three hundred. They were all strong adults, mostly men, each armed with a copper or obsidian weapon.
Fortunately, the city wall had been built, otherwise if this group of people attacked the tribe, there would definitely be heavy casualties and rivers of blood.
"Don't worry." Xiao reached out and pinched his shoulder.
Wu Yue nodded, but his frown remained unchanged.
Heilang led his men closer until both sides could see each other's faces clearly. He squinted his eyes and patrolled the city wall, and soon recognized Wu Yue from his clothes and appearance.
The skin is quite white and must feel very smooth.
He had heard from Ma Wu that this divine envoy Wu Yue was the companion of the leader of the Sharp Teeth Tribe, and that there was supposedly some prophecy. It was ridiculous; only their Divine Blessed Tribe received the gods' blessings and favor, and only their Divine Blessed Tribe could receive the gods' instructions.
This divine messenger should be his.
At the same time, the people on the city wall also saw the people below clearly.
"...Great Wizard!" A low voice came from the side. Wu Yue's face turned cold. He turned his head and saw that it was a guard from the Horse tribe.
"What did you call him?" Wu Yue asked with a frown.
The Great Shaman? The Sharp Fang Tribe only has one Great Shaman, Xia!
The man knew he had said something wrong and quickly covered his mouth with a look of panic on his face.
"Yu, confiscate his weapons and kick him out of the patrol," Xiao immediately ordered in a cold voice, "You'll be punished by cleaning the toilet for five days. If you don't obey, you can leave the tribe immediately and find your chief witch."
The man quickly expressed his acceptance of punishment. In fact, he just saw Ma Wu's miserable condition and blurted out the words out of habit without paying attention. But he never thought of going to Ma Wu to see how miserable Ma Wu was. The Sharp Tooth Tribe was so good, and he was not stupid.
Wu Yue looked around and noticed that there were some Dama people among the patrol members. He picked one up and pointed at Ma Wu and asked, "Who is he?"
The man was Ma Wei. He was secretly hating that idiot for bringing shame to the Dama tribe. To save face, he held his head high and answered loudly, "It's the enemy!"
"Very good." Wu Yue looked at the Dama people one by one, "What do you think, who is he?"
Since everyone had already made the sample, they certainly knew what they should say and shouted in unison: "It's the enemy!"
The chaotic thoughts in my mind gradually became calm and peaceful amid the shouting. It was the enemy, Ma Wu was already the enemy.
The shouting reached the city walls. Black Wolf raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Horse Wizard with amusement: "They seem to be saying you are the enemy, respected Great Wizard of the Horse Tribe."
Although Ma Wu's eyesight was blurry due to his old age, he could see that those who were shouting were all Malaysians, and he was filled with hatred.
How dare you call me an enemy?! Fine, fine, shout, scream! You'll all be killed soon anyway! Die!
"Hey, respected God's Messenger, are the enemies targeting us? We come here with good intentions." Black Wolf had seen enough of the vicious look on Ma Wu's face and turned to Wu Yue on the wall and shouted, "Let me introduce myself. I am Black Wolf, the leader of the God's Blessing Tribe."
Wu Yue heard the shouting and looked down.
He was a quite young man, probably no more than thirty years old, tall and good-looking, but there was an indescribable sinister temperament between his eyebrows and eyes. Although there was a smile on his lips, he looked like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.
"Black Wolf Leader," Wu Yue said coldly. "You've brought so many well-armed men with you. You don't look like you have good intentions."
Heilang was stunned. Just as the legend said, he could completely understand the unfamiliar syllables uttered by him!
The voice is not bad either. It should sound better when she begs for mercy softly in my arms. Even if she begs for mercy, it will only arouse more passion in me.
As if he had already regarded Wu Yue as his own property, Black Wolf looked at Wu Yue without any hesitation and licked his lips.
Wu Yue shuddered, felt nauseous, and got goose bumps all over his body.
"Hmph, you bastard!" This look made Xiao realize the malice of the black wolf. He gritted his teeth and cursed. He snatched the bow and arrow from the person next to him, drew the bow and shot.
He was usually not very good with bows and arrows, but this time in anger his accuracy was unexpectedly good. Unfortunately, the distance was too far and Black Wolf dodged in time, so the arrow grazed the horse's calf and stabbed into the ground.
Black Wolf jumped off his horse, pulled out the arrow and took a look. He found that the weapons of the Sharp Fang Tribe were indeed sharper and harder than the obsidian and copper of his own tribe.
He curled his lips, and his desire to want Wu Yue became stronger. Such a good weapon should belong to the great God-blessed Tribe!
Xiao on the other side missed the target and looked dissatisfied. He only felt a little better after Wu Yue touched his fur.
"Chief Black Wolf," Wu Yue continued the negotiation. "As you can see, our Sharp Fang Tribe has strong walls and sharp bows and arrows for defense. You won't be able to gain any advantage here. You'd better leave immediately. This land is so vast, you can develop it on your own with your strength!"
"No." Black Wolf smiled brightly at him. "This land is vast, but all I want is you. So, if you come down and follow me, I'll let the Sharp Fang Tribe go. How about that?"
Of course this was nonsense; he also wanted the Sharpfang Tribe's salt, pottery, weapons, and linen.
Xiao started cursing again. After all, he was young and could not keep his composure at all when his partner was being coveted. He took a knife and was about to go down and kill the damn black wolf.
Wu Yue grabbed him and said, "You're going down there alone to fight them all, are you looking for death? I'm telling you, if you die, I'll just look for someone else!"
Xiao glared at him angrily.
Wu Yue glared back, unwilling to be outdone.
Xiao finally managed to calm down and stared at the damn bastard under the city with hatred.
Wu Yue was also annoyed by the bastard below, but he still maintained his politeness: "Head Black Wolf, feelings cannot be forced. Xiao and I love each other and will not separate. You'd better leave quickly."
The black wolf sneered, love, what is that?
"If we can't separate, why not just kill him? Wu Yue, I'm going to take you anyway." Black Wolf smiled confidently and ordered his men to set up camp not far away. "The city walls are surrounding me, so I can't get in, but you can't get out either. What are you going to eat?"
Wu Yue's heart sank; the thing he feared most had finally happened.
