From that day on, Fire Eagle disappeared from the Black Fire Tribe. No one had seen him again, and no one knew where he went. It was as if such a person had vanished into thin air, suddenly disappearing from the tribe.
After Huo Yan ascended to the throne of the Black Fire Tribe's chief, his usual imposing manner became more and more dignified. Even confidants like Iron Bear and Black Bull were somewhat silent in front of him, and no one in the tribe dared to mention Fire Eagle's name in front of him.
That night, many people died in the tribe, and the original power structure was broken, especially the old generation of noble families. Except for the White Eagle Tribe, almost all of them were uprooted.
After that, Huo Yan quickly promoted and supported a few other up-and-coming clans. Among them, the ones with the highest status were the clans of Tie Xiong and Hei Niu. Furthermore, with his strong support, Tie Xiong and Hei Niu also obtained the positions of the leaders of their respective clans.
Therefore, for a period of time, the Black Fire Tribe, which had undergone great changes, formed a situation where the chief Huo Yan held sole power, and the White Eagle, Iron Bear, and Black Bull Clans under his command kept pace with each other.
Then, under the seemingly peaceful situation in the Black Fire Tribe, the preparations for another war were carried out in full swing, and the atmosphere in the tribe gradually began to tense up.
…
In the northern border of the Southern Wilderness, there were three other tribes besides the Black Fire Tribe. In the end, Huo Yan chose the Mountain Spirit Tribe.
Lu Chen had no objection to this choice. After Huo Yan came to tell him, he just nodded calmly in agreement, and did not even ask why Huo Yan made such a choice.
In the following period of time, preparations for this new war were made, and the first thing to do was to clean up the spies around the Black Fire Camp. These spies were all from the Thunder Lizard, Ghostly Fox, and Mountain Spirit Tribes. In the past, there were actually spies like this, but not as many as there were now.
As for the reason, of course, it was because some time ago, the Black Fire Tribe suddenly erupted and inexplicably destroyed the Divine Wood Tribe, one of the five tribes of the Northern Region. Although the Blackfire tribe had retreated to their own camp after that, and did not display any overbearing aura to the outside world, and it was even said that there was some internal strife, the other three tribes did not dare to let their guard down.
The other three tribes had even sent people to the Black Fire Tribe to inquire about the reason for the war and why the Black Fire Tribe was so ruthless.
Towards this question, the Black Fire Tribe, or rather, Firerock Tribe, had a very simple and powerful answer. It was the Divine Wood Tribe who made the first move!
In short, no matter what, the Divine Wood tribe no longer existed, and the other three tribes wouldn't stir up trouble for such a vanished tribe. However, it was inevitable that they would be more careful around the Blackfire tribe. Who knew if those lunatics would suddenly go crazy one day and target him?
The Black Fire Tribe's subsequent purge of their spies caused the other three tribes to become nervous in addition to being surprised.
Despite the vastness of the wasteland, and despite the nimbleness of the spies, there were no longer any spies left within ten miles of the Black Fire Camp under the Black Fire Tribe's relentless pursuit.
The other three tribes were all on guard. However, after that, they did not find any signs of the Black Fire Tribe launching a large-scale attack. Instead, they received messengers from the Black Fire Tribe. The messages they conveyed were similar. For example, they told the Thunder Lizard Tribe that their two tribes would form an alliance to rule the Northern Region together, or they told the Ghost Fox Tribe that they would form an alliance to defeat the other two tribes and divide the wasteland.
Even the Mountain Spirit Tribe, which had suffered great losses in the previous war, had messengers from the Black Fire Tribe come over to discuss the specifics …
The matter of sending messengers to lobby was actually a little controversial within the Black Fire Tribe. This was because the northern region of the wasteland had always revered power above all else, and there had never been such a thing. However, after Lu Chen brought it up to Firerock, Firerock accepted it almost immediately and vigorously promoted it without any hesitation.
His trusted subordinates, Iron Bear and Black Bull, were puzzled and came to ask Firerock. Firerock calmly told them that this was all a trick of the black-robed priest. If they didn't do this, the other three tribes might gang up on the Black Fire Tribe like the time when the Mountain Spirit Tribe had a priest. In this way, if they gave each of them some benefits, perhaps things would be much easier.
Iron Bear and Black Bull were stunned and silent after hearing this. This kind of thing was completely contrary to the martial spirit of the barbarians. It gave off a sinister and wretched feeling. However, under the strong push of Lu Chen and Firerock, they could do nothing about it.
Lu Chen's delaying tactic quickly produced results. The other three tribes, who were originally very nervous, relaxed. It wasn't that they had let down their guard against the Black Fire Tribe, and no one was that stupid. The most important thing was that the Black Fire Tribe had given them a way to negotiate. They all wanted to see what would happen if they continued to negotiate.
If there was a way to negotiate, there seemed to be no need to immediately gang up on them. Moreover, the Black Fire Tribe had been so polite and had promised them many benefits.
Under such circumstances, this delaying tactic only created a peaceful atmosphere for a few days. One day, the Black Fire Tribe brazenly mobilized all of their elite troops, including the bravest warriors of the tribe and the twenty Black Fire Guards who had surrendered from the Divine Wood Tribe, to attack the Mountain Spirit Tribe with all their might.
… …
The Mountain Spirit Tribe was prepared.
They deployed all of their warriors to guard the camp. Their warriors were brave and strong, their fighting spirit soaring. In order to protect the glory of their ancestors and the safety of their tribe, they did not hesitate to fight to the death!
This was the inevitable reaction of every barbarian tribe with a long history. They firmly believed that their ancestors would protect them and defeat the evil Black Fire Tribe. When the other two tribes heard this news and learned that the Black Fire Tribe had given up on the sneak attack (of course, it would have been impossible to sneak attack the Mountain Spirit Tribe with such tight security), and instead openly attacked in broad daylight, they could not help but be surprised and secretly delighted.
Therefore, everyone was happy to watch the show from the sidelines. It would be best if both sides fought until the last drop of blood flowed out and both sides suffered.
Just like that, the war began. The joy lasted until the barbarians of the Mountain Spirit Tribe saw their enemy, and the sky was covered in darkness.
"Shamans!"
Heart-Wrenching and lung-splitting roars of sudden realization resounded through the entire Wilderness. Everyone was stunned.
This secret had not been leaked during the night of the sneak attack on the Divine Wood Tribe. But today, it was suddenly revealed in front of the eyes of all the tribes.
It was no longer possible for them to unite like they did when they attacked the Mountain Spirit Tribe.
The dark aura surged and roared. The charging Black Fire Warriors began to demonize in the raging black flames, turning into terrifying killing machines. The barbarian warriors of the Mountain Spirit Tribe fought bravely, but what greeted them was an even more bloody massacre.
With the help of powerful witchcraft, the battle quickly became one-sided. It was so fast that the Thunder Lizard Tribe and the Ghost Fox Tribe, who had just come to their senses, could not even send reinforcements in time.
Once again, the Black Fire Tribe won the battle. They surrounded and defeated the Mountain Spirit Tribe, capturing all the Mountain Spirit Tribe members.
The same scene played out again.
The terrible and cruel Black Fire tribe once again betrayed the customs and agreements of the barbarians of the Wilderness that had existed for thousands of years. They rebelled and committed all kinds of evil. They destroyed other people's ancestors and beliefs, robbed everything they needed, and then left behind ruins.
When the Thunder Lizard Tribe and the Ghost Fox Tribe arrived, they only saw a scene of desolation and chaos.
There was a lot of blood and corpses on the ground, but no one was alive. They had all been taken away.
And now, in the northern region of the wasteland, there were only three tribes left.
An ice-cold, invisible darkness was rapidly spreading across this vast land.
