Chapter 750, A Serious Moment

Translator: Silavin

 

After Yan Jiao and the others received the summons, they immediately came to the tallest building. Everyone was still somewhat confused.

 

Because they had only heard that the Shaman had summoned many people, without clearly stating what it was specifically about.

 

“Shaman, did you call us over this time because there’s some arrangement for us?” Yan Jiao asked curiously.

 

The Shaman had not gathered this many people together for quite a long time. He felt the matter seemed somewhat serious.

 

“Shaman, are you sending our Hunting Team out to hunt again? I can take people out immediately.” Cang Shi instantly became excited.

 

Recently he had been particularly busy with many matters, all of which involved training Warriors.

 

Because the new batch of Warriors still did not know hunting techniques with Totem Power, he had to teach them hands-on within the Tribe.

 

The Warriors who went hunting at the Hunting Ground were always the same few. They only needed to depart by hot air balloon.

 

The round trip time had shortened considerably, and they brought back an enormous amount of game as well. So Cang Shi hadn’t been out hunting for some time.

 

“Shaman, is there a new mission assignment?” Sha Hong asked with a serious expression.

 

She rather hoped there would be some mission. Staying in the Tribe had become rather boring. She wanted to go outside and properly loosen up her muscles.

 

Su Bai put down his teacup, gestured with his hand towards the surrounding chairs and said, “You should all sit first. There is indeed a mission to assign to you.”

 

“Shaman, what mission will be assigned this time?” Yan Jiao’s posture naturally straightened.

 

Cang Shi seemed to have thorns on his bottom, completely unable to sit still on the stool. He stood up and asked excitedly, “Shaman, can I go along this time?”

 

The previous few operations had all been carried out by the Tribe’s new Totem Warriors, while old generation Totem Warriors like them had all remained in the Tribe.

 

His thinking was the same as Sha Lan’s. He also rarely went outside the Tribe to exercise his muscles.

 

“Do you still remember the Dark Scorpion Tribe that previously tried to sneak into our Tribe?” Su Bai asked.

 

Yan Jiao nodded without hesitation and asked, “Shaman, is this mission related to the Dark Scorpion Tribe?”

 

“Is our Flame Dragon Tribe going to eliminate the Dark Scorpion Tribe?” Cang Shi’s purple eyes instantly widened.

 

“You’re still as impatient as always. Wait for the Shaman to finish speaking first.” Sha Hong said lightly from the side.

 

Even though Sha Lan had been away from the Tribe for a period of time, she still understood the personalities of these people in the Tribe very clearly.

 

“This time I’ve divided the Warriors in the Tribe into three teams. All three teams have their own missions to execute.”

 

Su Bai leaned his body slightly forward, his expression particularly serious as he said, “You should still remember that the Dark Scorpion Tribe has many subordinate Tribes, correct? This mission’s targets are precisely them.”

 

“I still remember. Shaman, are these three teams going to eliminate those Tribes?” Yan Jiao asked respectfully.

 

“That’s correct, but you’re only half right. This time only two teams will go out. The other team must continue to remain in the Flame Dragon Tribe.” Su Bai nodded.

 

“Shaman, am I in one of those two departing teams?” Cang Shi’s hands nervously rubbed against his thighs.

 

He was exceptionally excited right now, while also constantly restraining the urge to immediately stand up.

 

“Yes, one of the teams will be led by you. You’ll be given five team members in total. You must bring them all back safely.” Su Bai nodded.

 

Cang Shi’s strength was among the best in the Tribe. This was also the reason he felt at ease letting Cang Shi lead the team.

 

Perhaps this mission could even allow him to successfully advance to become a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior. After all, he was already at the Peak Early-Stage. Advancement was only missing an opportunity.

 

If the number of Mid-Stage Totem Warriors in the Tribe increased, other Tribes would be even more afraid to provoke them.

 

“Yes, I guarantee I’ll complete the mission.” Cang Shi smiled excitedly.

 

He did not care how many people were in this team. He only cared whether he could go out on the mission.

 

Moreover, the Flame Dragon Tribe’s weapons were something no other Tribe possessed, and they could also provide tremendous help during missions. This was also the reason for his peace of mind.

 

“Shaman, what about me? Which team do you want to assign me to?” Yan Jiao was somewhat nervous.

 

To be honest, he actually really wanted to go outside as well. After all, not personally eliminating those Tribes with his own hands would truly be difficult to resolve the hatred in his heart.

 

However, he was also extremely worried about the Tribe if he left. He was, after all, also the Flame Dragon Tribe’s Chieftain.

 

“You need to stay behind. Many people in the Tribe still need your leadership, and there are also many people who need your protection.”

 

Su Bai’s tone was particularly calm as he continued, “Sha Hong is the same. You should also remain in the Tribe to protect the others.”

 

“Yes.” Both Yan Jiao and Sha Hong answered in unison.

 

Sha Hong was still somewhat disappointed. She had originally thought that with her identity as a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior, she would at least be able to go out for this mission.

 

However, thinking about it, she let it go. Staying in the Tribe to protect the Tribe’s people was also good. Moreover, her Daughter liked the Shaman so much.

 

Properly protecting the Shaman was also a good thing for her Daughter. Who could blame her for loving her Daughter so much?

 

“Prepare yourselves and depart tomorrow. However, this departure must absolutely be silent and undetected. You absolutely cannot let others discover you.”

 

Su Bai clasped his hands together and continued instructing, “Who knows whether we’re currently being watched by others. Striking first is always the right approach.”

 

He was thinking that since people from other Tribes had appeared in the forest, perhaps the Flame Dragon Tribe had already been targeted long ago.

 

Hopefully he was just overthinking it. However, being one step ahead of others was always good, and could also properly disrupt those people’s plans.

 

“Shaman, what about our schedule for going hunting and to the Spotted Deer Tribe to trade?” Yan Jiao asked.

 

The people going out on this mission included those who went to the Hunting Ground, as well as those who went to the Spotted Deer Tribe.

 

“Just arrange for people to take the hot air balloon to the Spotted Deer Tribe to explain. Just tell them we won’t be cooperating with them in future.” Su Bai furrowed his brow and continued, “With all the trade, we have sufficient food for now. The Hunting Team can take a temporary pause.”

 

He had thought for quite a long time before deciding not to cooperate with the Spotted Deer Tribe anymore. After all, they had already cooperated with their Tribe for quite a long time, which could be considered repaying the debt of gratitude from before.

 

Because now taking things to the Spotted Deer Tribe to trade did not really yield anything particularly useful. No, it should be said that people were proactively coming to their door to trade instead.

 

Since that was the case, there was no need to waste manpower specifically making a trip to the Spotted Deer Tribe.

 

“I understand. I’ll pass on instructions according to the Shaman’s wishes.” Yan Jiao nodded seriously.

 

“Recently, you must strengthen the Tribe’s patrols. The coming days may be somewhat dangerous.” Su Bai’s expression was exceptionally serious.

 

“Yes.” Everyone answered in unison.
