For a mont, the atmosphere in the woods beca tense, as both sides seed to have reached a dangerously precarious edge, as if the slightest carelessness could lead to a conflict.
One had to admit, the Beastn were indeed born warriors, facing warriors like Rocky who were clad in Armor, the Beastn ard with only primitive leather clothing and crude weapons showed no fear. Each one was as fierce as a lion, without a hint of fright.
But they should have been afraid.
Because they were not facing ordinary people, Rocky and Liliya, everyone was wearing the most advanced Armor of the day, especially Liliya’s Armor which had been upgraded before the battle with the City of Fury. In terms of combat power, it was on a level with the White Demon Armor. In such a state, although the Beastn seed to have a nurical advantage, they stood no chance at all once the fighting started, not a bit.
What the Beastn didn’t know was that they didn’t have the advantage in numbers, either.
As the tension between the two sides began to mount, Liliya had already used the communicator in her Armor to contact Monte, so Monte had now led five Void Magic Squads to rush over! And this was all thanks to Liliya showing rcy on account of Monte and Dusa being Beastn; otherwise, she wouldn’t have hesitated to summon all the Void Magic Warriors and the entire Fleet. By then, all City Lord Rocky needed to do was give one command, and this forest and all the Beastn in it would be leveled in an instant!
Fortunately, at the pivotal mont when swords were drawn and bows were tense, the Tribal Chief, He Nan, spoke up, “City Lord Rocky, you must leave, or you will kill us all, including yourself.”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying,” Rocky replied, frowning at He Nan, truly not understanding what he ant, and his words sounded like nothing more than a bluff.
“……”
He Nan looked at Rocky with a sowhat vicious expression, as if he was struggling to suppress his anger, but after a while, he sighed, “Co with .”
After saying that, He Nan turned and walked deeper into the forest, and seeing him leave, Rocky thought for a mont and then followed him with Liliya and the others.
Rocky naturally understood that there was a reason why He Nan wanted him to leave with the Fleet. It also piqued his curiosity, so he wanted to see what it was all about. Besides, Rocky felt that even if these Beastn really intended him harm, they could do nothing about it, and he did not need to be afraid.
And so, he quickly followed He Nan’s pace, surrounded by a group of Beastn, slowly walking deeper into the woods.
The deeper into the woods they went, the more Rocky noticed the difference. They followed He Nan, and it grew darker and darker around them, almost as if they were being led into a cave, until finally, even Rocky began to lose his sense of direction, realizing he was completely engulfed in darkness. Apart from He Nan leading the way in front, even the Beastn who were surrounding them seed to have disappeared into the darkness, as if swallowed up.
But Rocky was clear that he was still in the forest; the leaves underfoot and the faint sounds of artillery nearby were the best proof.
“This forest… is very suitable for living in,” Rocky remarked after noticing the eerie surroundings.
He had already noticed the anomaly here, and now he was certain that this seemingly small forest was very unusual, but he wasn’t foolish enough to ask what was going on. He believed that even if he did ask, He Nan wouldn’t tell him.
“This forest is shrouded in fog all year round, which can block the Demons,” He Nan said indifferently, without intending to give a detailed explanation.
Fog?
Upon hearing this answer, Rocky looked around and then gently swept with his hand, only to discover that the darkness around him was actually like a tangible substance, truly a fog.
This environnt, or rather this phenonon, was truly extraordinary, and even Rocky felt that it was an eye-opening experience.
After walking in the forest for about an hour, He Nan finally stopped, and as he did, the black fog surrounding Rocky gradually dissipated, followed by the revelation of a village!
Indeed, within this forest shrouded in mysterious fog, there lay a village, which was the Beastn Tribe that He Nan led!
When Rocky saw the tribe, his eyes widened in surprise because the scale of the tribe was much larger than he had imagined. He originally thought that He Nan’s so-called tribe would consist of at most a few hundred people, as the forest itself was not very large, and it seed impossible to accommodate more.
However, after truly witnessing He Nan’s tribe, Rocky realized how wrong his assumptions had been. Due to the presence of the mysterious fog, the forest was obviously not as small as it appeared to be, and the Beastn Tribe within it was certainly not just a few hundred strong, the scale of the tribe suggested a population of at least a thousand!
A Beastn Tribe of over a thousand mbers… This was truly unimaginable!
“Chief!”
“The Chief has returned!”
“Chief!”
As Rocky was stunned by the size of the Beastn Tribe, the Beastn of the tribe also noticed them, or rather, they noticed He Nan and the other Beastn and imdiately so people ca to greet them.
However, as the welcoming Beastn saw Rocky and the other three, they stopped in their tracks, and quickly, so strong Beastn positioned the female Beastman and the young Beastn behind them.
“Chief, are these the outsiders?”
“Chief, why have you brought them…”
“We should kill them! Chief!”
Upon seeing Rocky and his group, a commotion arose among the Beastn of the tribe. So were confused, so were frightened, and so were angrily shouting that they should kill Rocky and his companions, leading to a rather chaotic scene.
In the face of such agitation, He Nan simply waved his hand, and everything imdiately quieted down, “There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
It was evident that Chief He Nan held considerable authority within the tribe, and without any explanation, just a single sentence was enough to calm the Beastn down.
Of course, this wasn’t surprising; being able to lead a thousand-mber tribe to survive in such a perilous land environnt, He Nan’s abilities must be extraordinary, clearly sufficient to command such respect.
It was also apparent that He Nan held no hostility towards Rocky and his group, and it seed that he also wanted Rocky to see sothing, because right after, he looked back at Rocky and led him into the tribe, and before long, they reached the very center of the tribe.
And when He Nan led Rocky and the others to the center of the tribe, Rocky was dumbfounded…
