Chapter 407: War?
No tribe’s settlement is as neat as the Fire Tribe’s, with complete walls, wide streets, and planned courtyards.
The Sword Tribe is no exception, and because the tribe has recently been divided into two factions and quarreled endlessly, the entire settlement has become even more chaotic.
Shi walked into the Sword Tribe in such a chaos. He was wearing a linen shirt given to him by the Spring Tribe, and walked in on foot with loose sleeves.
It was not until he was deep in the Sword Tribe’s settlement that someone finally stopped him and asked who he was.
"Shi."
Shi stopped, put his hands behind his back, and said in a neither loud nor low voice.
"Which Shi?"
asked the person who stopped him in the Sword Tribe.
Shi is not a very special name, there are many in the Sword Tribe.
Because there are many people with this name, some prefixes are added to distinguish them, such as the stone on the side where the sun rises, the stone that is afraid of the cold, the stone that has killed wolves, etc.
"Shi from the Fire Tribe."
Shi's voice was still neither humble nor arrogant, and his expression was quite calm. He did not have the fear of being deep in the enemy camp. Instead, he admired the unique architectural structure of the Sword Tribe - some of the houses of the Sword Tribe were directly hollowed out of huge stones, which was really amazing.
"Shi from the Fire Tribe? I haven't heard of it. Did you give yourself this name because you killed people from the Fire Tribe, or because you were hurt by people from the Fire Tribe?"
The man still couldn't find Shi's specialness and kept asking.
Shi finally fixed his eyes on the man's face and took a closer look. He wondered if this man was not very smart? Or was he joking with him?
"Because I am from the Fire Tribe, so I am Shi from the Fire Tribe."
Shi began to explain.
After he finished speaking, the person opposite thought for a moment, then looked at him in surprise, pointed at him for a long time, and finally uttered a high-pitched shout.
This shout scared Shi, he was sure that this person was sick, and very sick.
"Shi, the leader of the Fire Tribe Alliance, is here."
The man from the Knife Tribe finally shouted out Shi's identity after screaming, and instantly attracted countless hateful and fearful eyes gathered here.
Shi raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect that he was so famous in the Knife Tribe, he looked around, and felt nothing about the hatred and fear.
After running around outside for several years, he had killed countless people, and he had seen too much hatred and fear.
There are too few tribes with a solid foundation and communication, such as the Star Tribe, Snake Tribe, and Pottery Tribe. Most of the time, the tribes we encounter are barbaric and ignorant.
These tribes don't even talk about communication. They fight when they meet. Either you are conquered by them, or you conquer them.
Some tribes even eat people and hunt their own kind.
After seeing so many, hatred and fear are just that. Don't care too much.
"Are you Shi?" The one
who spoke was a sturdy warrior. When he spoke, he pulled out the stone knife from his waist with his right hand. The totem power on the blade flashed and made a crisp sound.
Shi's eyes fell on the blade with a curious look in his eyes.
"I am."
Looking up at the warrior, Shi nodded and said.
"Looking for death."
The warrior didn't say anything more. His body suddenly accelerated and his right hand stone knife chopped down diagonally.
Although he was impulsive, he was not reckless. Seeing that Shi had no weapon in his hand, he distanced himself and attacked. Only the tip of the knife could hit Shi. At this time, even if Shi wanted to get close and block his wrist directly, he couldn't.
Shi did not get close, but chose to take a step back. When he took a step, there was no flash of totem power on his body, but his speed was as fast as a ghost, leaving an afterimage.
If you can watch from below, you can see that countless totem powers just pierced the ground like needles from his feet, but disappeared in an instant.
Shi's control over totem power became more and more abnormal.
"Swoosh..."
The stone knife broke through the air, and at the moment when it passed by the afterimage in front of Shi, Shi's right hand suddenly raised and crossed with the stone knife.
"Tick."
There was a slight sound, and a drop of blood fell on the ground. It was Shi's finger. Just when his finger crossed with the stone knife, the blade cut his finger.
Shi looked at his finger. There was a not-so-deep scar on it. He did it on purpose, wanting to know how strong the blade was.
On the wound of his finger, there was some totem power of the Knife Tribe attached, which was preventing his flesh and blood from recovering and causing the wound to bleed continuously.
"Very interesting power."
Shi said softly, and the totem power on his finger flashed, devouring the totem power of the Knife Tribe. The wound stopped bleeding under his totem power.
The Knife Tribe warrior frowned. He had already seen the gap between himself and Shi. The opponent could just extend his finger while retreating, and only suffered slight scars under such a fast knife speed. It can be seen how strong his strength is.
But he couldn't retreat at this moment. He had challenged the enemy, so there was no reason for him to call a halt.
"Come again."
He shouted angrily, and moved forward again, still slashing diagonally, but this time he held back. After Shi dodged, his knife slowly stopped, ready to flip and strike back.
Just as he stopped the knife and was about to flip, Shi took a step forward, reached down with his right hand, and held the back of the knife firmly with two fingers.
"Borrow it and see."
Shi said, and stretched forward with his left hand, pointing his middle finger and index finger side by side at the warrior's wrist.
A trace of the power of the Fire Tribe Totem entered the warrior's wrist, causing his palm to let go as if he had received an electric shock, and the long knife slipped out of his hand.
Shi raised his right hand, and threw the knife into the air, where he caught it in mid-air.
After carefully examining the stone knife, including the blade, he did not find any difference. Shi confirmed that this was the ability of the Knife Tribe rather than relying on weapons.
He heard that the Fire Tribe can now forge stone knives that use the power of totems. He could go back and take a look... He thought to himself, and threw the stone knife back to the warrior opposite with his right hand.
"You can't do it, who else can?"
Shi looked around and asked softly.
He just stood there straight, alone, his clothes rustling in the north wind, and everyone looked at him in silence.
"I'll do it."
A taller warrior stood up and shouted, while pulling out the stone knife to chop.
Shi slightly turned his body to avoid the sharp blade, and put his right index finger and middle finger together, and pressed lightly on the tall warrior's neck.
"Bang."
The warrior was knocked unconscious by him as if he had been electrocuted.
"Let's go together."
Someone shouted, and more than ten people rushed towards Shi.
The advantage in numbers was immediately apparent. There were stone knives everywhere, leaving Shi with no way to retreat.
Shi's right foot stepped forward, followed closely by his left leg. As his legs alternated, he could faintly feel the totem power opening and closing. He was actually using the totem power to speed himself up, which required extremely subtle control. His
figure rushed forward like a ghost, and in an instant he rushed directly to one side of the encirclement. His right hand became a knife and chopped the neck of the enemy in front of him, knocking him out.
Just when everyone thought he would break out of the encirclement, Shi unexpectedly turned to the right and punched the enemy who had not yet completely turned his body.
"Bang."
The totem power on Shi's fist was strong, and it exploded quickly at the moment of impact. The explosive force generated made the fist more powerful, directly knocking the person away and hitting two people horizontally.
The encirclement collapsed without being attacked, but Shi refused to give in. It was as if he was surrounding ten people alone. He attacked left and right, his figure was slender, and soon all ten people fell to the ground, without a sound.
"Don't worry, no one is dead."
Shi's voice was still clear, without the slightest breath.
"Who else?"
The surrounding warriors swallowed their saliva, and for a while no one stepped forward to challenge.
"Are you Shi?"
The crowd was separated, and the leader of the Sword Tribe walked in.
This was a middle-aged man, short but unusually sturdy.
Shi nodded. This man gave him a sharp feeling, very good.
"I am the leader of the Sword Tribe. Aren't you afraid of being besieged by us when you come to the Sword Tribe alone?"
The man did not rush to attack, but asked.
"I am not alone. The team is outside, waiting for my order."
Shi looked to the west, where there was a heavy snowstorm and his vision was completely blocked.
The leader of the Sword Tribe also looked over, and before he could speak, the old leader rushed over.
"Are you Shi?"
The old leader used the honorific of the Fire Tribe. Shi nodded, and at the same time saw the new leader frown.
"The Sword Tribe must surrender. There can only be one overlord on this land, and it must be the Fire Tribe."
Shi's words made the Sword Tribe people very dissatisfied, and only the old chief nodded in agreement.
"On what basis?"
The new chief glanced at his grandfather, and was quite angry when he saw him nodding in agreement. He turned his head and roared at Shi.
Shi's brows wrinkled slightly, and then his body suddenly moved.
The speed was very fast, and there was a shadow left in the sprint.
"Bang."
With a muffled sound, Shi's fist hit the face of the Sword Tribe leader. His face was twisted, and his body flew backwards at an angle, and teeth fell out of his mouth.
"Gululu."
The Sword Tribe leader's body turned a few circles on the ground, and after it stopped, he lay there silently.
"Who else?"
Shi asked calmly, but the eyes of the Knife Tribe warriors were full of anger.
"Calm down, calm down."
The old leader stepped forward in a hurry to stop the angry warriors from attacking Shi.
Shi glanced around, took a deep breath, and then opened his mouth.
"Woo woo woo woo..."
A wolf-like sound spread far away, and everyone stopped and looked at Shi, somewhat confused.
"Woo woo woo woo..."
A response suddenly came from the west, and then a warrior walked out of the wind and snow. There were
more and more warriors, and the first one was a giant wolf with an unusually large physique, and the warriors behind it continued to appear.
At the beginning, the warriors of the Sword Tribe were not panicked. After all, this was the Sword Tribe's garrison. Although the Sword Tribe had a population of only more than 10,000 and only 4,000 to 5,000 warriors, there were other tribes. The
Sword Tribe Alliance had a population of 60,000 to 70,000 and 20,000 to 30,000 warriors, which was still a great advantage in terms of numbers.
But as more and more people came out of the wind and snow, the faces of the Sword Tribe warriors became less attractive.
These were all the teams that Shi had brought along along the way. Some of them took the initiative to defect to the Fire Tribe, some were captured by Shi because they took the initiative to attack the Fire Tribe, and some came here because they had never defeated Shi.
The population was countless, and there were at least 40,000 warriors. It was not a problem to defeat a Sword Tribe garrison.
Moreover, among these warriors, there was a living Ming Totem Greedy Wolf. Seeing that might, many Sword Tribe warriors thought of the Ice Bear Totem.
The knife totem is not a dragon totem, and it cannot be compared with the ice bear totem.
"War?"
Shi gently awakened these dazed warriors and woke them up from their fear.
