I'm involved in poverty alleviation in a primitive tribe.
Chapter 56 Curses
While attacking the ferocious bird in the sky, the group retreated towards the forest. They were almost out of arrows, and their stone knives were too short-ranged to be effective against such a creature.
Before retreating into the forest, Red Moon fired an arrow at the Bone-Bone Ferocious Bird. This time, he aimed for its wing. However, the Bone-Bone Ferocious Bird reacted quickly, dodging to the side, and the arrow missed again.
Jiang Ning also joined the battle. She was skilled in using dual swords, which gave her an advantage in close combat, but it was a disadvantage in this kind of battle.
But she was not only a warrior, she was also a sorceress, and obscure and mysterious incantations came from her mouth, curses used for attack.
As the incantation was chanted, countless unseen forces seemed to converge in the air, condensing into mysterious points of light.
These points of light emitted a faint white glow, twinkling like stars. They flew from Jiang Ning's fingertips and landed directly on the strange, skeletal bird.
This is a mysterious power that only shamans can see, and it hits the target directly.
When the points of light landed on the strange-boned ferocious bird, it let out a piercing scream and its body swayed a few times in the air.
The attack clearly affected it, and seeing this, everyone immediately seized the opportunity to launch an even more ferocious attack.
They knew this opportunity might only come once, and they had to attack with all their might to defeat this strange, skeletal bird.
The strange, skeletal bird still refused to give up. It let out a mournful cry, as if to vent all its anger and resentment.
The cry was like a sharp arrow, shooting straight into the sky and making the surrounding trees tremble.
Jiang Ning was the first to be hit. She felt a huge impact on her chest, and her throat felt hot. She even spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Jiang Wu!" The others were startled. Jiang Ning was not only a member of the hunting team, but also the future shaman of the tribe. If something happened to her, the tribe would be finished.
Jiang Ning felt pain in her internal organs; this blow had seriously injured her.
She gritted her teeth, enduring the excruciating pain in her chest, quickly adjusted her breathing, and continued casting spells to attack the strange, skeletal bird.
Caught off guard by the sudden, continuous attacks, the strange-boned ferocious bird tumbled through the air, letting out its final scream.
Under the combined attack of the crowd, it finally gave out and fell from the sky.
Baiya led the pack of wolves out of the forest. Upon seeing this scene, it actually used the tree for leverage to jump onto the back of the ferocious bird and bit its neck. The ferocious bird, which was already falling, crashed to the ground.
The dangerous battle was finally over, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This life-or-death struggle was finally over.
After the battle, the others began to clean up the battlefield, collecting the weapons on the ground to see if they could be reused, and collecting the strange-boned ferocious birds, which were their spoils of war.
Its flesh and blood can be used to nourish the warrior's body, its feathers can be used to make arrows, and its claws and beak can be sharpened into sharp bone tools.
Hongyue and Qingpan quickly checked Jiang Ning's injuries.
"I'm fine, it just looks serious. I'll be fine after a rest." Jiang Ning calmed herself down, her voice sounding somewhat weak.
Hongyue and Qingpan exchanged a worried glance. They knew Jiang Ning's injuries were serious and required immediate treatment.
“We can’t risk staying here too long; we must leave as soon as possible,” Qingpan said, his eyes revealing worry and tension.
Everyone agreed, knowing that this place was fraught with unknown dangers and they had to leave as soon as possible. So they quickly mounted their steeds and headed deeper into the forest.
During the journey, Jiang Ning kept circulating her witch power to heal herself. Her injuries were not serious, but she was caught off guard by the sudden attack of the ferocious bird's cry, which caused her blood to rush to her head and cause her to vomit blood.
Her magical power flowed gently through her body like a trickle, constantly repairing the damaged areas.
When they arrived at the cave, Jiang Ning's complexion had improved considerably. Her witchcraft power was gradually recovering within her, and her blood energy had stabilized. Seeing this, Hongyue and Qingpan's worries gradually subsided.
In this relatively safe cave, the group was able to rest for a while. Jiang Ning closed her eyes to recuperate and continue to heal her injuries.
Red Moon arranged for soldiers to stand guard, and had the ferocious birds skinned and roasted. Everyone was injured to varying degrees, and the meat of the ferocious beast was the best tonic.
Its energy can help everyone recover better.
Bai Ya stood guard beside Jiang Ning, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation.
Over the next few days, Jiang Ning gradually recovered, and her complexion became rosy again. Seeing Jiang Ning's condition gradually improve, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning couldn't help but smile. It was these people who gave her the confidence to continue struggling to survive on this strange and dangerous continent.
Hongyue brought over some roasted ferocious bird meat, steaming hot and incredibly fragrant. Jiang Ning took the meat, feeling a warmth in her heart. She knew Hongyue had prepared it especially for her, hoping it would help her regain her strength quickly.
Jiang Ning took a bite. Although it had only undergone the simplest roasting, the meat of this ferocious bird was tender and had an excellent texture. She couldn't help but sigh that although hunting was dangerous, the rewards were enormous.
In this dangerous forest, the meat of birds of prey is both food and medicine.
This delicious food helped Jiang Ning recover quickly and also lifted her spirits.
It's a pity that Jiang Ning originally wanted to experience the fun of beachcombing and feel the excitement and joy of catching seafood as the tides rise and fall.
She also wanted to savor the seafood here, imagining herself strolling along the beach in the morning sunlight, searching for seafood washed ashore by the waves.
She can pick up those colorful seashells with her own hands and feel the sand slipping through her fingertips. She can also see starfish, conches, and other strange creatures, sparkling in the sunlight, like treasures of the ocean.
She imagined the succulent crab meat, the tender fish, and the uniquely textured shellfish. She looked forward to tasting different kinds of seafood and exploring their unique flavors and textures.
But the current situation forces her to retreat back into the jungle.
This ocean is beautiful, but it also hides endless dangers.
Those ferocious sea monsters that roam around may launch a deadly attack on the hunting party. And those seemingly beautiful coral reefs may hide poisonous stingers and traps.
Without ensuring her safety, she couldn't risk everything for the sake of satisfying her cravings.
After all, you might get eaten by seafood before you even get to eat it, and that's a risk not worth taking lightly.
