Chapter 222: Dark Night Clan Male, Chuck!
"Great Elder, how do you want us to prove it?" Ophelia frowned.
The Great Elder smiled. "It's simple. As long as you can find a crystal mine within three days, I'll trust you."
Ophelia sneered. "Great Elder, do you think I'm a fool?"
"I found the crystal mine for you, and you turned around and regretted it. What can I do to you?" The elder's calculations were so loud that she could hear them in the Fu tribe.
The Great Elder's face was filled with worry. "Then how do you want to prove it?"
"No problem. As long as I can find a piece of iron ore near the White Tiger Tribe, it will prove that I really have a way to find ore."
Seeing that Ophelia was so confident in her words, the elder had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, but I'll change the three-day deadline to one day."
"Okay, but first I need to see Klein. I have to make sure he's alive or dead. If I can't see him, our agreement will be void."
"This..." The Great Elder was a little embarrassed.
Ophelia raised an eyebrow. "What? Is this the only courage the Great Elder has? There are only two of us here today, and you have so many people around you. Are you still afraid that I will take Klein away?"
"If that's the case, it only shows that you are incompetent."
The tiger males felt ashamed to be mocked for their incompetence by a little female.
"Great Elder, please let them meet Klein. With us here, nothing they want will succeed."
The Great Elder's face turned pale, so he had no choice but to agree to Ophelia's request.
He ordered someone to bring Klein out of the cell. Klein, who hadn't seen the sun for a long time, suddenly felt the sunlight was dazzling.
He squinted his eyes and saw a dark shadow in the air.
After adjusting to the light for a while, he realized that there was a pterosaur with wings in the air, and there was a vague human figure in the pterosaur's hand.
Seeing Klein covered in wounds, Ophelia was furious. She shouted, "Great Elder, Klein is the patriarch of your tribe after all. How dare you treat him like this?"
"Are you still human?"
The Great Elder snorted coldly. "It's the law of the jungle. He's defeated, so whatever I do to him won't be considered excessive."
Klein recognized Ophelia's voice. His eyes burned and his voice became hoarse. "Ophelia, you shouldn't have come. Go away."
He held on to his last breath, just wanting to see Ophelia again. Now that he saw her, he died without regrets.
Ophelia saw that Klein was determined to die, so she shouted, "Don't worry, Klein. I will definitely save you. You must stay alive."
"If you dare to die, I will never forgive you."
Hearing Ophelia's threatening words, Klein was not angry at all. Instead, he felt warm in his heart.
He nodded weakly. "Okay, I'll wait for you to save me."
"Great Elder, please take good care of Klein. If anything happens to him, I will destroy all the crystal mines near the White Tiger Tribe."
Ophelia patted Zeref's paw, signaling him to take her away.
After the two left, they returned to a steep cliff. The cliff was very high and could not be reached except by the Feather Clan.
Ophelia knew that the Dark Night Clan could not fly, so it was safest for them to stay on the cliff during this period.
As for food, there is no need to worry at all. Now that there are no outsiders, she can take food out of the space without restraint.
Taylor saw Ophelia coming back and went to greet her. "How was it? Did you see Klein?"
Ophelia looked serious. "It's too far away. I can't see clearly."
Taylor turned back to Zeref. "What about you?"
"His condition is very poor. He has quite a few injuries. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Hearing Zeref say this, Ophelia's eyes instantly turned red.
"Zeref, take me to find iron ore. We'll rescue Klein today."
Ophelia hurriedly pulled Zeref out of the cave but was stopped.
She looked at Zeref with some confusion.
Zeref knew she was anxious, but he patiently explained to her, "It's already evening, and the Night Tribe will be out. It's dangerous."
"Let's go look for it tomorrow morning when the sun comes out."
Ophelia's emotions gradually calmed down after hearing this. She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, we'll go when the first rays of sunrise rise tomorrow."
On the other side, the tiger males who were following Ophelia also returned to the tiger tribe.
"How is it? Have you tracked down their resting place?"
The tiger male nodded. "We caught up with them, but they were hiding in a cave on the cliff. We can't fly, so we can't catch them."
"They do know how to find a place." The Great Elder frowned slightly.
"Great Elder, should we tell Chuck of the Dark Night Clan about this?"
Chuck is the male from the Dark Night Clan who is now holding the White Tiger Clan's lifeline.
"Do you think you can keep it secret?" The Great Elder glared at the male who spoke.
There are many of Chuck's puppets in the Fu tribe now. Even if he doesn't talk about those puppets, they will report to him what happened.
Instead of this, it would be better for him to confess proactively.
After the sun had completely set, a male dressed in a black animal skin robe came to the White Tiger Clan.
"So, has Klein suggested a method for finding crystal ore?"
The Great Elder shook his head.
Chuck immediately released his powerful pressure, which made the elder unable to breathe. He lost strength and fell to the ground.
"You idiot, you can't even do this."
The Great Elder's face flushed crimson as he panted. "But Klein's partner is here. She said she has a way to find the ore."
"In that case, why don't you bring the person here quickly." Chuck had an impatient look on his face.
"She left a long time ago, and they cunningly hid in a cave on the cliff. We have no way to get close to them."
Chuck drummed his fingers on the table. "Quite clever."
"So there's still no way to find a crystal mine. Great Elder, don't blame me for not reminding you. The time is almost up. If you can't find a crystal mine, your son won't have to live."
"No, no, Master Chuck."
"I've already made an agreement with Ophelia. As long as she can prove that he can really find the ore, I will release Klein."
"She values Klein very much, so she will definitely save him."
"In that case, I'll wait a day."
After finishing his business, Chuck leaned on the stool and shook his stiff neck.
"I'm hungry. Bring someone up here."
The Great Elder waved his hand, and soon several young males were brought up.
Several young males had pale lips, skinny bodies and looked malnourished.
A male was pushed to the ground. Chuck walked up to him, leaned over, grabbed his neck, and bit the male's artery with his sharp teeth.
Then there was a frantic swallowing sound, and Chuck's black eyes turned blood red.
The Great Elder was very frightened when he saw this scene, but in order to save his son, he could only endure it.
But in just a moment, the young male was sucked dry, and the tea drinker pushed the man away with satisfaction.
Then he attacked several other young males. They had already become numb and did not resist at all.
Soon several corpses were thrown out of the tiger tribe. The wild wolves wandering around the tiger tribe immediately pounced on them and ate the bones of the corpses.
