"No need for compensation."
Marin remained expressionless.
"We've come here to find a group of missing tribesmen. They came here about two weeks ago. I wonder if you've seen them?"
So it really was to find those people...
Su Bai nodded. "I've seen them, but they're all dead now, killed by a pack of wolves."
Marin's expression turned serious upon hearing this.
Where did they die?
"Wolf Den".
“I also retrieved their bodies and buried them behind the village.”
Su Bai originally did this to get closer to the Blackwater Tribe, but now it seems that it's unnecessary.
“Take us there.”
Marin immediately replied.
Su Bai then led them to the back of the village, where they dug up the skeletons again. By comparing the clothing and the gnaw marks on the bones, Marin and the others quickly determined the identities and causes of death of the group.
"It really was that beast who did it!"
Balu's face was filled with hatred.
Marin turned around, looked at Su Bai seriously, and asked, "When you found their bodies in the wolf den, did you encounter a white wolf?"
"have."
Su Bai replied, then revealed a look of lingering fear.
“That white wolf was extremely fierce, and it had guards. I lost more than a dozen lives to escape.”
"Take us to the wolf's den. Our purpose in coming here is to eliminate that beast and avenge our people!"
Marin said firmly.
"...Can."
Su Bai hesitated for a moment before answering.
Marin and the others were very anxious.
After obtaining the clue, they immediately headed to the wolf's den. However, no matter how Su Bai looked at it, he felt that they were not just after revenge.
—If they valued their people so much, why didn't they even think of taking those bones with them?
"You guys stay here, I'll go by myself."
Su Bai refused the Templar Knights' request to accompany him.
Marin saw this and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. He glanced at Balu, who nodded slightly with a stern expression.
The group set off immediately.
Along the way, the people of the Blackwater Tribe subtly surrounded Su Bai within their group.
They cut off all his escape routes.
Su Bai seemed oblivious.
He asked, "I'm a little curious, you're looking for that white wolf, surely it's not just for revenge?"
The other tribal warriors remained silent.
Marin said, "That beast escaped from our tribe. Batu led people to chase after it to catch it, but he ended up being killed instead."
"Speaking of which, it's quite remarkable that you were able to escape unscathed after encountering it and even take away the remains of our warriors."
His aged face twitched slightly.
"Just lucky."
Su Bai was too lazy to say anything to improve his image, so he just gave a perfunctory reply. Then, he lightly wiped his face, and a demon-like mask appeared. A gray mist quickly enveloped him.
This moment.
Marin, who had been talking to him, suddenly seemed dazed.
He turned around naturally and said to Balu, "When we find that beast, don't rush to take action. First, make sure it has finished giving birth so as not to hurt the cubs."
"...Something's not right."
Balu, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up.
All around.
It's too quiet.
