The name 'Thunder Shaman' made Lu Chen immediately think of the Fire Shaman. The impression of that old Barbarian Shaman in his memory was so deep that he subconsciously turned his head to look at Huo Yan.
They both had the bloodline of the Black Fire Tribe, but Huo Yan didn't seem to have any similarities with that incomparably powerful Fire Shaman. One was old, gloomy and deep, while the other was hot-blooded and full of hope. The difference was like the sun and the moon.
But then again, the difference in strength between the two was like heaven and earth. In fact, Huo Yan simply couldn't be compared with the Fire Shaman. Lu Chen felt strange that such a strange idea had suddenly appeared in his mind.
As for the Thunder Shaman that Huo Yan had recognized, he was one of the most powerful figures in the Southern Wilderness. The tribe he belonged to was called 'Thunder Cloud'. It was similar to the 'Thunder Lizard' tribe that Lu Chen had seen before, but there was a world of difference between the two.
The Thunder Cloud tribe relied on the protection of the Thunder Shaman to become one of the most powerful tribes in the Wilderness in recent years. They and several other powerful tribes divided and occupied the former territory of the Black Fire Tribe, which was the most fertile land in the Southern Wilderness. Their strength was far above that of the Black Fire, Thunder Lizard, and other small tribes.
"Oh, so that's how it is. But what does this have to do with the wolf pack that you mentioned?" Lu Chen asked Huo Yan.
Huo Yan glanced at the yellow sand that had been blown up and said, "Those powerful tribes often like to hunt."
"Huh?"
Huo Yan said, "Tribes like our Black Fire Tribe usually go out to hunt. We find and kill some demon beasts and drag them back to the camp, which is a good food rations. But tribes like the Thunder Cloud Tribe have already prepared all the supplies and don't lack food. Therefore, they often hold hunts. Although they also hunt demon beasts, it's more to show off their martial prowess. "
Lu Chen was silent for a while, then said, "It sounds like their hunting momentum is much greater than yours?"
"That's a lot bigger." A trace of helplessness flashed across Huo Yan's face as he said, "For a top clan like Lei Yun, the number of demonic beasts they kill in a single hunt is at least ten times that of us. Therefore, at times like this, some of the intelligent demonic beasts have no choice but to avoid the sharp edge, and leave their original habitats to flee in all directions."
Only now did Lu Chen understand why Huo Yan was confused about why the wolf pack came here. These demon wolves did not belong here, and they probably did not like this barren land, so they would not come here. It was only after receiving the crushing expulsion of the Thundercloud Tribe that the wolf pack had no choice but to temporarily hide here.
And the price was that the two of them were almost buried in the belly of the wolf.
I wonder if this is considered an undeserved calamity …
…
"Then what do we do now?" Lu Chen asked Huo Yan.
With regards to the situation of the Southern Wilderness, Lu Chen was almost in the dark. After all, no human had come here for many years, so it could be said that he knew nothing about the situation of the Barbarian Tribe. He could only honestly ask this barbarian, who had treated him quite well.
Huo Yan answered him without hesitation, "Of course, avoid them, and don't provoke them."
"Huh?" Lu Chen was a little surprised. In his original impression, the Barbarian Tribe were mostly ferocious, and lacked the ability to adapt. They were often fearless in the face of danger, and refused to retreat. However, Huo Yan's performance these past few days had made him have a whole new level of respect for him.
From the first time they met, to the way back, to the camp of the Black Fire Tribe, and then all the way here, Huo Yan had displayed a special characteristic that was different from the majority of the Barbarian Tribe. He was both brave and fearless, yet he was calm and wise, and it was even to the extent that he could endure and make concessions. Moreover, he possessed an ability that exceeded everyone's expectations. Once he noticed something unusual about Lu Chen, he'd practically thought through everything in an extremely short period of time and decided to make a huge gamble.
If the person who made the decision was Lu Chen, to be honest, even Lu Chen didn't believe that he could do what Huo Yan did. But unfortunately, there was no 'if' in this world.
"Do we have to avoid these people?" Lu Chen asked him again.
Huo Yan nodded and said, "This can't be helped. All the tribes in the Wilderness will not be too polite to foreign barbarians who travel alone. They will usually interrogate and search them. If they encounter a situation that is not pleasing to the eye, and their own tribe is strong, they will directly attack or even kill them. This is also a common thing. "
Lu Chen grinned, and thought that in the Southern Wilderness, martial strength was indeed the most important thing. If one were to travel alone, not only would he have to guard against demon beasts and all kinds of dangers, he would also have to be careful of his fellow barbarians, as long as they were not from the same tribe.
Then, the two of them took a turn, and avoided the yellow sand in front of them, and turned to the other side. But in the middle of this, a mournful wolf howl suddenly sounded from the yellow sand in the air.
Atsu was the first to stop, and then looked back. At this time, Lu Chen noticed that there seemed to be a trace of anger in Atsu's eyes, and he would occasionally let out a low growl. It seemed that he was somewhat angry.
And after a while, a cool breeze blew from the sky, brushing against the yellow sand. They finally saw a corner of the yellow sand.
When they looked from afar, they saw a pack of wolves.
Those ferocious and terrifying demon beasts were madly howling in pain at this moment. Hundreds of agile barbarians were surrounding them. They were holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, and were ferociously stabbing the bodies of these wolves.
Blood-red light burst out from under the tough fur, followed by unimaginable painful howls. The strong male wolves in the wolf pack were desperately fighting against those barbarian warriors, trying to protect the weaker female wolves and the pups so that they could escape.
However, under the yellow sand, the blades were like snow. The barbarians had formed a circle, and were laughing wildly as they gathered. The weaker female wolves and wolf cubs were the first to be chopped to death. Then, the crazed male wolves launched a desperate attack against the barbarian warriors. But they were met with an even more powerful and terrifying force.
It didn't take long for the entire pack of wolves to fall into a pool of blood. It was unknown how many severed limbs had fallen in this wilderness. It was a bloody scene.
This originally powerful pack of wolves had been completely annihilated in one day.
… …
"Let's go?" Lu Chen was the first to react. He lowered his voice and asked Huo Yan who was in a daze, "Let's go?"
Huo Yan seemed to have woken up from a dream. His body trembled, and then he said softly, "Yes, let's go."
The two had already packed up. They didn't have anything else to worry about. Just like that, they left with large strides. The strong smell of blood filled this land.
"They killed an entire pack of demon wolves." Lu Chen asked Huo Yan as they walked. "What if they caught one or a group of people?"
"Those people will die even more miserably. Although those demon wolves are ferocious, most of them were killed with a single slash. But if the two of us were to fall into the hands of the Thunder Cloud Tribe … "
"What will happen?"
Huo Yan smiled. "We barbarians don't have such a thing as a captive."
"They will die?"
"Yes, and they will usually die very miserably. In those large tribes, there is no lack of madmen who like to torture us small tribes."
Lu Chen frowned. He didn't say anything, but his expression didn't look good either.
Huo Yan quickly walked forward. At the same time, he said, "Don't worry. As long as we go to the Fire God Altar, we won't let anyone do as they please."
Lu Chen glanced at him. He didn't know why Huo Yan was so confident. But it seemed that he worshipped the Fire God.
"Huo Yan?"
"Yes?"
"If I really become a priest in the Black Fire Tribe in the future, I will help you. But there are conditions. But it is still too early to talk about these things. But you keep saying that the relationship between a priest and a Shaman is only that of a superior and subordinate. Then, do I have any hope of becoming a Shaman in the future?"
Huo Yan was startled. He first smiled, then became silent. After thinking for a while, he said, "You can."
Lu Chen was shocked. "You really can?"
Huo Yan took a deep breath and said softly, "If you can become a Shaman in the future, then it will be the time for our Black Fire Tribe to return to the central region. It will be the time for us to recover the glory of our ancestors!"
Lu Chen stared at him for a while. After confirming that this different barbarian was not joking, he couldn't help but be silent. He then nodded and said, "Very good."
