Zhao Hai knew that the people of the Tiger Soul Country hated him very much. However, in the past two years, the Tiger Soul Country didn't make any moves. Zhao Hai thought that the Tiger Soul Country had already let him go. After all, although he did some things to the Tiger Soul Country, a country shouldn't hold a grudge.
But now, it seems like this wasn't the case. The people of the Tiger Soul Country didn't seem to want to let him go. This made Zhao Hai feel surprised.
However, after thinking about it, he understood why the people of the Tiger Soul Country sent their troops at this time. It was very likely that they took advantage of this opportunity.
The enmity between Zhao Hai and the Wolf Soul Country was much greater than the enmity between him and the Tiger Soul Country. The Tiger Soul Country sent their troops to deal with Zhao Hai in order to make the people of the Blade Soul Country think that it was the Wolf Soul Country that wanted to deal with Zhao Hai. If the Blade Soul Country and the Wolf Soul Country were dragged into the quagmire of war, then the people of the Tiger Soul Country would benefit the most.
Although Zhao Hai didn't know if his guess was right or not, he thought that it was at least possible. However, the people of the Tiger Soul Country didn't have a good understanding of his strength.
Zhao Hai's face was calm. He slowly walked out of his tent and looked around. The old man's stronghold was very different from before. There were a lot of Bottle Trees and Baobab Trees in the stronghold. In addition to the tents and houses, there were a lot of places to hide people.
At this time, the Tiger Soul Country's hunting team had just entered the old man's stronghold. They haven't officially entered the stronghold. Zhao Hai didn't plan to deal with them outside the stronghold. He planned to put them inside the stronghold first before dealing with them.
Zhao Hai's figure moved. His whole body was covered in Iron Thread Grass Armor. Then his body moved and disappeared from the stronghold.
Actually, Zhao Hai didn't disappear. He was just hiding in the shadows of the stronghold. His whole body was like a tree standing there. It was impossible for others to detect his presence.
If it was an ordinary person, even if they had the same equipment as Zhao Hai, they wouldn't be able to do what Zhao Hai did. This was because it was impossible for them to completely hide their aura. However, Zhao Hai was able to do so.
Not long after Zhao Hai's figure disappeared, several shadows entered the stronghold. Because most of the people in the old man's stronghold were elderly and disabled people, there were no people guarding the stronghold walls. In any case, the old man's stronghold wouldn't be attacked in the Desert. So it didn't matter if they guarded it or not.
After these people entered the old man's stronghold, they looked around and then sneaked into the stronghold. Zhao Hai looked at them quietly. Then he found a target. This person was a guard who was at the back of the team. He was ready to support the team at any time. Therefore, he was quite a distance away from the others. This person was Zhao Hai's target.
Zhao Hai's figure flashed a few times and was already not far from the person. Then when the person was looking in another direction, Zhao Hai's figure flashed and silently appeared in the person's blind spot. Then Zhao Hai grabbed the person's neck and exerted force. The person's neck was broken by Zhao Hai. He didn't even make a sound.
However, this wasn't the end. Zhao Hai gently put the person on the ground without making a sound. Then he went to the next target.
After a few times, Zhao Hai killed five people. This team had a total of ten people. After Zhao Hai killed five people, the remaining people reacted and immediately gathered together.
When Zhao Hai saw their appearance, he knew that sneak attacks were useless. However, the strength of these people was still beyond his expectations. They were able to notice his movements after five people died. This showed that they were very strong.
Zhao Hai slowly walked out of the shadows. He looked at the people and said, "Why did you come to the old man's stronghold?"
When the people saw Zhao Hai's figure, they knew that the main character had come out. They didn't say anything. Instead, they held their weapons and rushed towards Zhao Hai. Unexpectedly, the weapons in their hands were all scimitars.
The scimitars in their hands weren't the same as the scimitars in the prairie. The scimitars in their hands looked like the scimitars of the Wolf Fang Army. They were thinner, longer, and less curved than the average scimitar.
It seems like the other party was prepared to impersonate the Wolf Fang Army. Zhao Hai smiled faintly. His figure moved and rushed towards the people. At the same time, two black swords appeared in his hands.
When the two sides passed by each other, two black-clothed people fell to the ground. Zhao Hai turned around and attacked them. The three black-clothed people didn't have any intention of surrendering. They continued to attack Zhao Hai. Naturally, Zhao Hai wasn't polite. He only used ten moves to kill the three people on the spot.
Then Zhao Hai brought the people outside of the stronghold. Then he carefully searched their bodies. He didn't find anything that could prove their identity. There was also nothing special about their appearance. The only thing that could prove their identity was the scimitars in their hands. They also had a concealment artifact that could hide their souls.
Zhao Hai thought that the other party's impersonation of the Wolf Fang Army was quite good. The only thing that they didn't have was a concealment artifact. Zhao Hai rarely saw concealment artifacts in the continent. Even in the Saber Spirit Nation, very few people used them. He only saw hunting teams using them.
But if the Tiger Soul people wanted to pretend to be a hunting team, how could they make such an obvious mistake? Could it be that these people were from the Wolf Fang Army? Were they pretending to be a hunting team?
Zhao Hai was somewhat puzzled, but he didn't take it to heart. He turned around and returned to the stronghold. He went into his tent. He planned to wait until he woke up tomorrow and let the people in the stronghold take a look at the identity of these people.
The next morning, after Zhao Hai woke up, he met with the elders in the stronghold. He greeted them and then told the elders about the situation. Then he led them to the place where he threw the corpses last night.
The corpses were still there. Zhao Hai asked the elders to take a look at the corpses. They came to the conclusion that these people weren't from the prairie. This was because the prairie people used scimitars for generations. They rarely used other weapons. And no matter what kind of weapon you used, after a long time, there would always be some calluses on your hands. And from the shape of the calluses, one could tell what kind of weapon you used.
Although the corpses didn't have any obvious characteristics, the calluses on their hands betrayed them. The calluses on their hands weren't from scimitars. In other words, they weren't prairie people.
Since they weren't prairie people, and they also had a concealment artifact on their bodies, it was clear that they were from the Tiger Soul Country. Zhao Hai was even more certain of his guess. He was afraid that the Tiger Soul Country wanted the Blade Soul Country and the Wolf Soul Country to fight again.
A day later, Hu Ding and the others woke up. But at this time, Zhao Hai had already disposed of the corpses. After Hu Ding and the others woke up, Zhao Hai invited Hu Ding to his tent. After Hu Ding sat down, Zhao Hai opened his mouth and said, "Eighteenth Uncle, yesterday, the Tiger Soul Country's hunting team came to the stronghold. They wanted to assassinate me, but they were already killed by me."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Hu Ding couldn't help but be surprised, "Tiger Soul Country? Why did the hunting team find you again? What's going on? "
Zhao Hai replied, "I don't know yet, but it's possible that they're targeting me. Otherwise, they wouldn't have targeted us. If they kill us, then they can shift the blame to the Wolf Soul Country. If this goes wrong, then the Blade Soul Country and the Wolf Soul Country might go to war. The Grand Desert might also participate in this war. This way, the Wolf Soul Country would benefit the most."
Hu Ding nodded, then he said in a deep voice, "It's possible. Right, do you think it's possible that they discovered the Ten Great Strongholds' movements and wanted to sabotage their reconnaissance. Therefore, they sent people to the desert and found you here, so they wanted to assassinate you?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It's not impossible. But what we can be sure of is that the other party is from the Tiger Soul Country. Although they use scimitars, the old people in the stronghold confirmed that they don't use scimitars for a long time. They just picked up scimitars temporarily. I only have enmity with the Tiger Soul Country and the Wolf Soul Country. There's no need to talk about the Wolf Soul Country. The Wolf Soul Country can't even take care of themselves right now, so they don't have the time to deal with me."
Hu Ding nodded and said, "No matter what, the Tiger Soul Nation has already made a move on you. You have to be careful. Those fellows from the hunting squad are like maggots attached to bones. Once you get entangled with them, it's very difficult to escape. The hunting squad tried to deal with you once before, but they failed. Later on, there was no news of them. And with the pressure from the Saber Spirit Nation, they didn't try to deal with you. Now that the rumors have died down, it's very likely that they will try to deal with you again. You have to be careful."
So you have to be careful. "Zhao Hai nodded and said," Don't worry, I'll be careful. The Tiger Soul Country is seeking their own death. Originally, the strongholds in the Grand Desert were prepared to deal with them. Now that they dared to come to the Grand Desert, they must be afraid of dying too slowly. This is also good, we can spread the news and let the Ten Great Strongholds deal with them. "
Hu Ding smiled faintly and said, "With your current reputation in the desert, the people from the Ten Great Strongholds will certainly deal with you once they find out that you were attacked. This is certain. However, the people from the Ten Great Strongholds are bandits, it's hard to say how much damage they can do to the Tiger Soul Country."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I don't want to do anything to the Tiger Soul Country. It's good to retaliate against them. The Tiger Soul Country has been in the Soul Realm for so many years, it's impossible to deal with them so easily. Let's take it slow."
Hu Ding nodded, then he looked outside the tent and said, "To be honest, I've gained a lot this year. Plant Masters are the most popular profession in the Soul Realm, but I've never seen anyone who needs a Plant Master more than the people in the Grand Desert. To be honest, after coming to the Grand Desert, I understood what a Plant Master should do. What a Plant Master means to the people in the Grand Desert. And what we're doing now means to the people in the Grand Desert."
Zhao Hai looked at Hu Ding, then he smiled faintly and said, "Eighteenth Uncle, you're feeling a lot of emotions today. Hehe, to be honest, when I wanted to change the environment in the Grand Desert, it was just a spur of the moment. But when I started to do it, I understood what it meant to the Grand Desert. We're changing the fate of the people in the Grand Desert. There's nothing more meaningful than this. Therefore, I decided to do this well and leave after I'm done. Because of this, I asked for help from my family because I knew that it would take me several generations to get a result."
Hu Ding nodded, then he said, "Alright, let's not talk about this. Now is not the time to sigh. We should finish the experiment first. When we can really use our experiment to change the environment in the Grand Desert, then we'll sigh again. Let's go, we still have to do today's experiment." Zhao Hai laughed and stood up, then he followed Hu Ding out.
Zhao Hai and the others returned to their original state. Every day, they kept on experimenting, looking at the data, experimenting, and doing boring work. However, the matter of Zhao Hai being assassinated by the hunting squad quickly spread throughout the Grand Desert. The people from the Ten Great Strongholds even sent people to confirm with Zhao Hai. They wanted to know if this matter was true, if Zhao Hai was really assassinated. After getting a definite answer, the entire Grand Desert went into an uproar.
What Zhao Hai and the others were doing right now was very important to the people of the Desert. Zhao Hai and the others had suffered a lot, this was something that the people of the Desert were very clear about. Zhao Hai's efforts had moved the people of the Desert. Moreover, Zhao Hai and the others had also achieved good results. This gave the people of the Desert a lot of hope.
But now, someone actually wanted to assassinate Zhao Hai. For the people of the Grand Desert, this was unforgivable. Someone wanted to destroy their hope. How could they not be angry? The entire Grand Desert was now filled with hostility towards the Tiger Soul Country. If it weren't for the Ten Great Strongholds, then the small and medium strongholds would have already entered the Tiger Soul Country and started to wreak havoc.
The people of the Ten Great Strongholds didn't let the small strongholds take action. Naturally, it wasn't because they didn't want to make a move against the people of the Tiger Soul Country. It was just that they couldn't make a move against the people of the Tiger Soul Country. At this time, the people of the Ten Great Strongholds understood that before taking action, they needed to have a thorough plan. If they didn't have a thorough plan, then the chances of success would be very low.
At this time, the people of the Ten Great Strongholds weren't ready. If the small strongholds directly went to the Tiger Soul Country to cause trouble, then they would undoubtedly alert the enemy. If the people of the Tiger Soul Country were prepared, then it would be very troublesome for the Ten Great Strongholds to take action in the future.
Zhao Hai didn't care about these things at this time. He was still carrying out his experiment. He didn't want to think about the Tiger Soul Country's matter. For him, completing the experiment and improving the environment of the Grand Desert was the most important thing.
