Chapter 214 The situation is bad, we need to retreat.
Zeref still had to go back to organize the male pterosaurs so that he could provide timely help if any accidents occurred tomorrow. After saying a few words, he returned to the holy city.
Klein patted Ophelia's head. "I'm afraid tonight will be a sleepless night. I'll go and pass on the news to my tribe."
"Laxus, take the tribesmen to prepare food and roast all the prey we have so that we can replenish our energy at any time during the fight."
They no longer need to fight in hand-to-hand combat, but rather long-range archery.
If the war is really intense, you can take advantage of the break to eat some barbecued jerky to replenish your energy.
He even wanted to make some rice cakes to distribute to the tribesmen, but had to give up due to time constraints.
The fire outside the Holy City was lit all night long, and the aroma of barbecue wafted into the Holy City. The residents of the Holy City couldn't sleep well in the middle of the night.
The aroma of barbecue was carried by the wind to the Fire Phoenix Clan's residence. The Fire Phoenix Clan males, who were already a little excited, smelled the aroma and their stomachs began to growl.
The food supply of the tribe has dropped sharply in the past two days. Except for the young females and cubs in the tribe, the adult males have not eaten much food at all.
That is, after the Fire Phoenix Clan and the Giant Ape Clan cooperated, the Fire Phoenix Clan leader borrowed a batch of prey despite the mocking look of the Giant Ape Clan leader.
However, thinking that he could teach Ophelia and Zeref a lesson tomorrow, the head of the Fire Phoenix family felt that the brief grievance was nothing.
The members of the Fu tribe waited excitedly until the next morning, but the males of the Fire Phoenix tribe waited until dawn with their mouths drooling.
But what awaited them were bones with little meat and animal offal that no one liked to eat.
The males of the Fire Phoenix Clan were somewhat dissatisfied, but due to the authority of the Fire Phoenix Clan Master they had to endure it.
"As long as we defeat the Fu tribe today, I will reward each of you with three prey and a green crystal."
Green crystals can enhance male strength, and the males of the Fire Phoenix tribe regained their spirits upon hearing this reward.
So after everyone had breakfast, they followed the head of the Fire Phoenix family to the gate of the Holy City.
As soon as he reached the gate of the Holy City, the head of the Fire Phoenix family found that Zeref was waiting there with several middle-aged males.
The head of the Huofeng family looked carefully and found several familiar people among them.
"Master of the Giant Ape Family, Master of the Panda Family, Master of the Pterosaur Family, what are you doing..."
The Giant Ape Patriarch still wore a kind smile. "Young Master Zeref of the Pterosaur Clan invited us to a show, so he told us to wait here."
Good show?
The Fire Phoenix Patriarch's gaze fell on Zeref's face. Seeing that the other party was looking at him with interest, he knew that the good show he was talking about was himself.
He raised his lips slightly. "Okay, then we'll see who will be the protagonist of this scene."
The head of the Fire Phoenix family led his clansmen out of the city gate in a menacing manner, while Zeref led the others up the city wall slowly and calmly.
We found the best viewing spot, and had tables, chairs, benches, and fruits prepared.
The head of the Giant Ape family felt a little uneasy when he saw Zeref's confident look.
However, he calmed down again when he saw the head of the Huofeng family walking out of the city gate.
Anyway, no matter what, this matter has nothing to do with me.
The head of the Huofeng family took all the members of the tribe out today, and everyone could guess what he was going to do.
Ophelia and Klein were already waiting outside the city gate, but they were standing a hundred meters away.
Just as the Fire Phoenix Patriarch was about to approach with his men, Klein stepped forward.
"stop."
"Is Patriarch Huofeng leaving the city today to negotiate with us?"
"What are you thinking about? How can I, the patriarch of the Fire Phoenix clan, negotiate with people from lowly and inferior tribes like you? How is that possible?"
"Then Patriarch Huo Feng means there's no room for negotiation." Klein raised his eyebrows. This was his last chance. If he couldn't seize it, then it wasn't his fault.
"King White Tiger, please take a look at what I have in my hand first." The head of the Fire Phoenix family waved his hand, and the brothers lifted the animal skins in their hands to reveal crudely crafted bows and arrows.
The moment he saw the bow and arrow, Laxus exclaimed. "How did they get a bow and arrow? What should we do?"
Ophelia frowned and stared carefully at the bows and arrows in the males' hands, but the distance was too far and she couldn't see clearly.
Klein narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the Fire Phoenix Clan's bows and arrows. "Don't panic yet. Their bows and arrows aren't as good as ours."
"Also, I think their arrows are rather crude, and definitely not as powerful as ours." Klein didn't deliberately lower his voice; instead, he raised it slightly.
This calmed the hearts of the male Fu people who had some ideas.
When the Fire Phoenix Patriarch heard Klein's words, he thought he was forcing himself to save face.
He sneered. "White Tiger King, if you hand Ophelia over to me and give me a crystal mine, I will spare your White Tiger tribe."
"Dream on." This person actually dared to covet his crystal mine. It was simply wishful thinking.
Klein secretly gestured to his tribesmen, and the archers behind him quietly picked up their bows and arrows, while their other hands had already pulled out an arrow.
The males of the Fire Phoenix Clan on the other side also did the same thing.
"Then it seems there is no room for negotiation."
The war was about to break out, and both sides shot arrows at the same time.
Laxus and Klein took the lead in protecting Ophelia behind them, and then stared at the situation on the field nervously.
Ophelia was not afraid, but observed the bows and arrows of the Fire Phoenix Clan. The range of their arrows was about the same as theirs.
But at such a distance, the power of the shot is greatly reduced.
"Laxus, go pick up some arrows and be careful not to get shot."
Laxus nodded and bent down, collecting the arrows shot by the Fire Phoenix Clan. However, among the arrows flying all over the sky, there was still one that shot towards Laxus.
Ophelia's heart immediately rose. "Laxus, be careful."
At this time, Laxus was looking down, and the arrow feathers did not notice anything approaching.
With Ophelia's reminder, he could only roll over to avoid the vital parts.
The arrow feathers scratched his shoulder and tore the animal hide on his body.
"I'm fine, don't come over." Laxus raised his hand to stop Ophelia who wanted to get closer.
Then he stood up and returned to Ophelia with the arrow in his arms.
Ophelia hurriedly took out the golden medicine to apply to Laxus, but as soon as she lifted the animal skin, she found that only the oily skin was broken.
"Uh..." This was something neither Ophelia nor Klein had expected.
Ophelia pulled out the bows of the Fire Phoenix Clan and checked their arrows.
Although their arrowheads are also made of iron ore, the workmanship is crude and they look like they have been purified but not completely purified, so their power is far inferior to that of the Fu tribe.
A rain of arrows was shot out, and seeing that his own stock was running low, the head of the Huofeng family became a little anxious.
"How come they still have arrows? How could this happen?"
He originally thought that after shooting a thousand arrows, the people of the Fu tribe would be either killed or disabled, but he did not expect that the most seriously injured would be his own side.
"Master, why don't we retreat!" Dale couldn't bear to see his companions fall one by one.
