The lord who ruled Fallen Dragon Island in his previous life preserved the central buildings of the three major clans and even specially organized a group of extras to design them into some unique tourist attractions.
Thanks to this.
In his memory, the terrain around the Blackwater tribe is basically the same as it is now.
Even if he knew the exact location, he couldn't easily go there, as it was too close to the core area of the Blackwater Tribe and too dangerous for him.
"There's nothing left..."
Su Bai searched through it carefully again.
During this process, he discovered more details worth investigating, such as the obvious long-accumulated scars on the man's body and the marks from shackles on his ankles. It could be basically concluded that this person was a slave or laborer kept by the Blackwater tribe.
Su Bai didn't bother with such a stupid question as why he would defect from the Blackwater Tribe.
Instead,
He actually managed to escape.
The Blackwater Tribe is one of the three strongest clans on Dragonfall Island. The tribe has many powerful fourth and fifth-tier combat units and also possesses sacrificial artifacts—a sinister thing they call 'ancestral artifacts'.
An ordinary person with no supernatural abilities was able to escape from their control.
perhaps,
This means he was very lucky.
But Su Bai prefers to believe another, more realistic speculation.
—Some kind of unrest occurred within the Blackwater tribe, causing them to loosen their control over the slaves!
If it's true, what would it be?
war?
It's unlikely...
Even during the most intense period of fighting between the Blackwater Tribe and the Azure Dragon Society, neither side suffered any serious damage.
Moreover, most of the players under his command who are responsible for resisting the Blackwater Tribe are only paying lip service and are focused on making money for themselves. They haven't really taken any real action, so it's even less likely that the Blackwater Tribe will experience internal turmoil because of them.
It's most likely because of something else.
As for other things...
The only person or thing he had ever come into contact with was the Silver Moon Wolf King.
Su Bai had never asked what the conflict was between the Silver Moon Wolf King and the Blackwater Tribe, but considering that the Blackwater Tribe had sent people to hunt it down several times, the matter was probably not so simple.
The more I think about it, the more something seems off...
He murmured.
After confirming there was nothing inside, Su Bai first burned the man's body to ashes to prevent any remaining toxins from contaminating the surrounding area.
There's still the reward for the last architectural blueprint that I haven't checked.
I opened it casually.
[Hint: You have obtained the Frost House construction blueprint!]
【House of Frost】
[Level: Excellent]
[Level: 1]
[Effect: Popularity +5, Prosperity +5, When storing food, there is a certain probability of granting it the 'Cold Resistance' trait]
[Note: A freezer built with ice-attribute magic stones can extend the shelf life of fresh food and can be used for freezing.]
[Construction Requirements: 100 Froststone, 50 Stone, 50 Wood, 1 Green Crystal]
...
The House of Frost... the name sounds impressive, but it's actually just a magical cold storage.
However, this building did not contribute much to the development of the territory.
But it's still quite useful.
It's currently summer, and food preservation is indeed a major challenge. Dry food and grains are relatively easy to preserve, but fresh food generally needs to be produced and sold on the same day, otherwise it will spoil and cause waste.
The Frost House can undoubtedly reduce a lot of unnecessary losses.
Moreover, it has special effects.
Cold-resistant.
This characteristic will be very useful in winter.
Use up the blueprints.
This special building was immediately unlocked in the territory's building module.
Su Bai put it on his agenda.
He wouldn't need to worry about supervising from now on; Claudia would arrange everything for him.
...
He had originally planned to make more healing items tonight.
But the sudden incident involving the Blackwater Tribe kept him on his mind. After a moment's thought, Su Bai headed straight for the Wolf Den that very night.
night.
This is the time when the wolves are most active.
The waning moon shone on the earth, and the howls of wolves rose and fell across the vast fields. Suddenly, a loud and clear wolf howl, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, tore through the heavy night.
The Silver Moon Wolf King stood proudly atop the wolf den, howling at the moon. The moonlight poured down, making its silvery-white fur gleam brilliantly, like a source of light, dazzlingly beautiful.
"It seems you have fully recovered."
Su Bai looked up and said.
The wolf king lowered its head, and its eyes revealed an extremely human-like emotion, like that of a noble and aloof beauty. It spoke:
"What's the matter?"
"I want to know why the Blackwater Tribe is hunting you down."
Su Bai said.
"Those beasts...!" It bared its teeth in anger, its fur bristling slightly, and its eyes filled with hatred as it looked towards the depths of the distant mountains, in the direction of the Blackwater Tribe.
But upon closer inspection, its body was trembling slightly, as if its anger was mixed with a deep fear.
The wolf king suddenly said something completely irrelevant.
"Did you feel it too?"
"What...?" Su Bai immediately realized, "You mean what happened in the Blackwater tribe tonight?"
"Hmph! Their ancestral festival is approaching, but this year they're missing a crucial offering, and... they'll definitely not be satisfied!"
"Tonight's backlash will be the beginning of their demise!"
