I'm involved in poverty alleviation in a primitive tribe.

The clam shaman channeled his magical power, and the totem on his forehead slowly glowed with golden light, as he activated his shamanic seal.

The sorcerer's mark is the symbol of a sorcerer. In reality, it is more like the abode of a sorcerer's soul. Offering up the sorcerer's mark is like handing over one's life to another.

Jiang Ning reached out and placed his hand on the clam shaman's head, guiding his shamanic seal to merge with his own. As soon as the seal entered his body, Jiang Ning felt his shamanic power increase significantly, taking a big step closer to breaking through to the Spirit Shaman realm. Absorbing someone else's shamanic seal had such an effect; the Heavenly Wolf Shaman had truly gone to great lengths for him.

Once everything was complete, Jiang Ning felt that she had gained some memories of the Clam Tribe in her mind, and the totem marks of the Clam Tribe warriors seemed to be under her easy control.

This feeling was so strange, as if she could easily control a person's life and death. She had never experienced this feeling before. The warrior totem of the Sirius tribe was still in the hands of the Sirius Shaman, and Jiang Ning was merely a figurehead.

Her expression finally relaxed, relieved that she no longer had to worry about any unforeseen events.

After collecting the witch seal, Jiang Ning ordered the Sky Wolf Warriors to release the people of the Clam Tribe.

"You should pack your things now and move the tribe to the other side of the Sirius River. I'm not comfortable leaving you here."

Having already handed over the shamanic seal, the clam shaman could only silently agree and go to his tribe to arrange the specifics.

Jiang Ning summoned Hong Yue and asked him to arrange for someone to go back and report the news first, so as not to worry the clansmen.

The Sirius Tribe had always thought the Clam Tribe only had two hundred or so people. They didn't know when, but they had grown to more than three hundred. In addition to the hunting captain being a level two warrior, the Clam Tribe chief was also a level two warrior. Both the chief and the shaman had clams at the level of strange bone beasts. No wonder they dared to attack the Sirius Tribe.

Besides the previous hunting party, the Clam Tribe suffered further casualties in the recent battle. The Sirius warriors, still seething with anger, were bound to act rashly.

Although Jiang Ning saw it, she didn't intend to stop it. Didn't she feel resentful at all?

However, even if all the people of the Clam Tribe were killed, the Sirius Warriors who died because of them would not come back to life.

There is a possibility that such a deadly battle would cause more casualties among the Sirius warriors. Rather than that, it would be better to keep them alive and use the power of the Clam Tribe for our own purposes.

The Clam Tribe has 206 people remaining, including 113 warriors excluding the elderly, women, and children. In preparation for their attack on the Sky Wolf Tribe, they haven't sent any other hunting teams out recently.

Although they are weak on land, they can unleash amazing fighting power when fighting in the water.

Their battle pets can grow up to two meters long. Unlike the clams she had eaten before, their clams have very hard shells, which can be used not only to protect themselves and their masters, but also to attack enemies.

"System, the people of the Clam Tribe seem to eat clams?" While the Clam Tribe packed up, almost a night had passed. After Jiang Ning received the Clam Witch's seal, some memories of the Clam Tribe appeared in her mind.

The people of the Clam Tribe eat clams most often. This makes Jiang Ning somewhat uncertain about the memories she received; even if the Sirius Tribe were short of food, they wouldn't eat wolves.

"Yes, freshwater mussels can lay eggs twice a year during their breeding season, producing millions of glochidia larvae each time. Although the survival rate is only 10%, the number is still considerable." The system knew what Jiang Ning wanted to ask.

"Although the clams in the Clam Tribe do not have such reproductive capabilities, there are still hundreds of thousands of them. Not every clam that survives can grow to this size. Only those with exceptional strength are used as battle pets, while the others are used as food."

"Their war clam wouldn't care about having so many offspring. This lake in front of us has been managed by the clam tribe generation after generation, so there's no shortage of clams to eat."

"The wolves of your tribe have limited fertility. It's considered lucky if they can give birth to twins, so naturally they wouldn't eat them. Actually, many tribes are like this. Didn't Furong say that the Lotus Tribe also eats lotus roots? The lotus roots they eat are probably just ordinary lotus roots."

Jiang Ning understood. Looking at the lake before him, he saw that dawn was breaking and the lake's outline was becoming faintly visible. He couldn't imagine how many clams lurked beneath the water. Fortunately, the warriors of Tianlang hadn't entered the water to fight the clam tribe.

"With so many oysters, how many pearls must they produce!" Jiang Ning's eyes were somewhat dazed.

"Host, most of the pearls here are ordinary and not very useful. Only the pearls raised by their battle pets are not only beautiful, but can also detoxify and stop bleeding."

"Antidote?" Jiang Ning's eyes lit up immediately. Hunting teams inevitably encounter poisonous creatures, and although they have some commonly used antidotes, it's not enough.

As for stopping bleeding, that's even more useful; after every battle, you're bound to have some injuries. Even if you don't use it yourself, it's good to trade pearls with others.

"Yes, the higher the grade of the clam, the stronger the detoxification ability of the pearl it produces. You can ask the shaman of the clam tribe."

"Aren't pearls formed when foreign objects like sand or gravel enter the oyster's body? Don't they ask the oyster tribe to help clean them?" Jiang Ning wondered. Bai Ya even needed her to help comb her fur when she shed.

"Host, many things in this world cannot be viewed with the same perspective as before. Take your Baiya for example. If it grows wings in the future, will it be considered a bird or a beast? If it has offspring, will it be viviparous or oviparous?"

"The pearls nurtured by the war pets of the clam tribe are not only useful to you, but also to the clam itself, so it will naturally not reject them."

"That's great!" Jiang Ning was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that this time they could not only patch up the loopholes in the Tianlang tribe's water defenses, but also obtain antidote pearls.

The clam shaman was directing his people to move with the chieftain. Jiang Ning had been focused on dealing with the clam tribe as quickly as possible and hadn't paid attention to their clothing.

Now that they have some free time, it's clear that their style is quite different from that of the Sirius tribe.

The Sirius tribe reveres powerful ferocious beasts. They like to wear the teeth, bones, or fur of the beasts they hunt themselves as decorations, while also displaying their strength.

The people of the Clam Tribe also carried many bones, which appeared to be from river beasts. These bones were polished and processed, and strung together into exquisite ornaments. In addition, they wore many decorations made of pearls and shells.

Jiang Ning walked up to the clam witch, who immediately stopped what she was doing and asked her, "Sirius witch, what do you need?"

"I'm not the Sirius Witch, just call me Jiang Witch from now on," Jiang Ning waved his hand.

The Clam Witch was taken aback. She never expected that the Sirius Witch would trust a disciple so much after she gave her witch seal to her.

Jiang Ning glanced at the busy clam tribe. Although she wasn't looking at him, she seemed to understand what the clam shaman was thinking. She said casually, "I advise you to behave yourself, otherwise, even if your entire tribe hides in the water, you will still die at my hands."

"The Clam Tribe dares not!" Even though it was summer, the Clam Witch felt a bit cold.

Jiang Ning glanced at him again, "I hope you won't do anything stupid again."

"Where are your pearls?" Jiang Ning turned her gaze away and asked the clam shaman directly.

"It's right at the bottom of this lake, please follow me." The clam shaman called several warriors from the clam tribe to walk ahead and lead the way for Jiang Ning.
