Chapter 855, Traces of Evidence

The people of Earth Tiger Tribe likewise arrived belatedly. After surrendering their weapons at the entrance, they entered Flame Dragon Tribe.

 

Upon entering the Tribe, they immediately rushed towards the Restful Night Building. They had barely taken two steps when they encountered a carriage.

 

Having never tried a carriage before, they naturally chose to experience it.

 

After negotiating the price, everyone squeezed into the carriage. Of course, not everyone could squeeze in.

 

Most people still followed behind. Yini, Ci and others planned to take the carriage first to reserve rooms.

 

Because when they were preparing to enter Flame Dragon Tribe, many people were already queuing at the entrance.

 

They too received kind reminders, namely to quickly go reserve rooms first, otherwise they would very easily have no rooms to sleep in.

 

After more than half an hour, Yini and the others had already confirmed the number of rooms, separately storing the dried meat they had brought from the Tribe.

 

“Good thing we were the last batch, otherwise we’d have to go stay in the forest… Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

 

Because she saw people from other Tribes sighing and lamenting downstairs at the Restful Night Building. Clearly there were no extra rooms for them.

 

This meant they must quickly finish exchanging things today, then select a safe place in the forest to prepare to spend the night.

 

Or else they would prepare to spend the night first, then wait until dawn tomorrow to trade.

 

“I never imagined the Flame Dragon Tribe would be so popular. It feels like there are this many people here every day,” Yini exclaimed.

 

The more this was the case, the heavier her curiosity about Flame Dragon Tribe became, the more she wanted to understand just what kind of Tribe this was.

 

“I already asked the people at the front desk just now. They said there are indeed this many people here every day. The Restful Night Building doesn’t have a single day with vacant rooms,” Ci said earnestly.

 

When she learned this information, she was extremely shocked. She truly hadn’t imagined that the Flame Dragon Tribe’s popularity could reach this degree.

 

Although the Restful Night Building belonged to the Flame Dragon Tribe, with slight inquiry or calculation, one would find that this building actually had quite a few rooms, with large and small rooms totalling far more than ten.

 

Each room could accommodate five or six people, and moreover, each Tribe didn’t send that many people.

 

In any case, the main purpose was to trade, not to come for warfare.

 

So, calculating according to this concept, Flame Dragon Tribe truly received people from several Tribes every single day.

 

“This is truly too exaggerated. I wonder if anyone shares the same thoughts as us?” Yini scanned her surroundings in a circle.

 

Yini was particularly cautious. At this moment, she dared not speak too directly, worried that someone nearby might be watching them. After all, they were inside someone else’s Tribe.

 

“I think everyone more or less harbours some intentions, otherwise how could they have so many things to trade here every day?” Ci believed this.

 

Because making a trip to trade truly was not easy. Setting aside how long the round trip took.

 

The most difficult part was the danger in the forest. The danger of the dense primitive forest was immeasurable.

 

To safely transport the exchange goods to a Tribe, then transport the exchanged goods back.

 

Just this protective action alone would be extremely exhausting, not to mention if Ferocious Beasts suddenly attacked, the danger level would greatly increase.

 

It was precisely because of this that those Tribes brought many exchange goods each time they came, ensuring they could exchange more in one trip.

 

This way they could supply the Tribe’s usage for a longer period, and also reduce the danger for those Tribe members who went out to trade.

 

“I wonder if they’ll discover it first. If too many people discover it, then these goods will become very difficult to trade for,” Yini sighed.

 

She did not hope others harboured the same intentions as her, because if so, the competition the Earth Tiger Tribe faced would greatly increase.

 

“Don’t speak too soon. Whether we can find the Flame Dragon Tribe’s secret is still a question,” Ci waved both hands.

 

She did not think this mission would be easy, and even thought they might very likely be discovered by the other party.

 

“We must first start from the Central Market. That’s where there are the most people and the most goods. Going there to gather intelligence definitely won’t be wrong,” Yini looked completely serious.

 

“Then let’s go quickly, while it’s not yet dark. See if we can gather some useful intelligence,” Ci nodded.

 

*Step step step…*

 

The two set off towards the Central Market, stopping and starting along the way, deeply attracted by everything around them.

 

Everything about Flame Dragon Tribe, no matter how many times one looked at it, still felt extremely spectacular. It was truly too captivating.

 

“I wonder how the Flame Dragon Tribe manages so many people,” Yini curiously scanned her surroundings.

 

She discovered everyone had their own tasks to perform, not appearing idle at all.

 

Moreover, everyone did everything in an extremely orderly manner, all as if it had been arranged beforehand.

 

“Perhaps they have their own management methods. But what shocks me most is that they actually thought of making us leave our weapons outside the Tribe.”

 

Ci couldn’t help but look back towards the Tribe entrance, continuing, “Yet we all did so quite voluntarily. This too counts as their capability.”

 

No Tribe would be so audacious, confident enough to directly make people leave their weapons outside the Tribe, refusing entry if they didn’t comply.

 

This operation would make many Tribes leave in anger, which would also cause Flame Dragon Tribe’s visitor numbers to decrease more and more.

 

One must know that Flame Dragon Tribe operated the Central Market. If no one came to their Tribe, their goods couldn’t be exchanged.

 

“Flame Dragon Tribe relies entirely on their goods. Without these goods, I believe we wouldn’t come either,” Yini nodded earnestly. She very much agreed with this viewpoint. This was precisely the purpose of their trip. They absolutely must know the secret of the Flame Dragon Tribe’s goods.

 

“We must be more careful and low-key this time, lest we be noticed by the Flame Dragon Tribe’s people,” Ci instructed.

 

She was from another continent. Although the Mountain Elephant Tribe’s people were particularly bold and unrestrained, having stayed long in the Earth Tiger Tribe, she also knew what temperament the people here had.

 

“I know. If only we could follow them out, we might be able to see which Tribe they got their goods from.” Yini suddenly said.

 

“Let’s first observe the situation before deciding. If after investigating for a day tomorrow there’s still no progress, we’ll decide whether to follow them,” Ci suggested.

 

“You’re right. Such a Large Tribe surely won’t conduct business without leaving any trace of intelligence,” Yini very much agreed.

 

“Better to first go look at the Central Market first.” Ci stepped into the Central Market.

 

“Alright,” Yini immediately followed close behind.
