I thrived in the primitive tribe

Chapter 158 Communicating with the Siren

Although the siren sensed something was amiss, her eyes still flickered with wariness and doubt.

But looking at Lu Yao's face, which was full of sincerity and expectation, her clear eyes seemed to reflect the purest sincerity.

It did not refute or raise any further questions.

Lu Yao keenly noticed the subtle change in the siren's emotions and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She understood that the trust between her and the siren was hard-won, and she had to cherish this hard-won peaceful atmosphere.

Therefore, she carefully considered her words, hoping to achieve her goal without offending the other party.

Looking at the siren sitting before him, the anger that had been on that unusual face was gone.

Instead, it is replaced by a profound reflection and evaluation.

Lu Yao thought that this might be an excellent opportunity to try to ask it to awaken the rest of its clansmen.

After all, the safety of the tribe is of utmost urgency.

So she cleared her throat gently, trying to make her voice sound as soft as possible:

"See, I've already explained it to you in detail,"

At this point, Lu Yao paused involuntarily, feeling somewhat conflicted.

She didn't know whether she should first have the siren awaken the other sleeping members of her tribe to strengthen the tribe's defenses;

Let's find out the origins of the siren first, so that we can better understand and deal with the potential risks.

The two options swirled rapidly in her mind, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

However, considering that the tribe is now facing an attack from unknown creatures that could be launched at any time, time is of the essence and there is no room for hesitation.

Lu Yao took a deep breath and decided to deal with the immediate crisis first:

"Look, can you awaken all my people?"

You should have heard the bell just now. It's a warning bell that our tribe rings only when there's an emergency or we're under serious threat.

Lu Yao's eyes revealed deep concern for the current state of the tribe.

"These people are now immersed in their illusions and cannot extricate themselves."

I'm worried. I'm worried that if wild animals attack our tribe, we might not be able to defend ourselves with our current strength.

At that time, not only will our tribe suffer a devastating blow, but you will also suffer as a result.

Think about it, how long can a completely isolated individual endure in this perilous world? Don't you think so?

Lu Yao didn't know how intelligent the siren was, so she simply stated her thoughts directly, hoping that the siren could understand the implications.

Upon hearing this, the siren recalled the images of those humans who had left in a panic, and a ripple of emotion stirred within her.

It certainly sensed the unusual tension; it really did look like something big was about to happen.

Moreover, considering that she still needed to stay in this tribe temporarily, the siren began to weigh the pros and cons.

After a brief silence, the siren finally spoke:

“I can wake them all up, but how can you guarantee that they won’t attack me again after they’re awakened?”

What if I'm not so lucky next time and get hurt by them?

Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the siren's words.

She knew that as long as the siren was willing to negotiate, it meant there was still a chance for things to turn around.

So she quickly assured them, "Don't worry, they will definitely not attack you again."

I swear here and now to the Beast God, is that alright? I guarantee your safety in the name of the Beast God.

Upon hearing this, the siren's eyes flickered slightly, seemingly somewhat tempted by the suggestion.

“If you’re going to swear an oath to the Beast God, then all of you together.”

I need to see the sincerity and determination of all of you before I can truly feel at ease.

Lu Yao turned to look at the Great Shaman standing to the side, and saw her nod slightly, indicating that there was no problem.

Having received the high shaman's affirmative reply, he felt somewhat relieved and responded to the siren:

"Yes, no problem. We are willing to swear in the name of the Beast God to guarantee your safety."

After they all swore a solemn oath to the Beast God, promising not to harm the siren in any way,

The siren finally relaxed her furrowed brow and slowly opened her mouth.

As a melodious yet slightly mysterious song began, all the remaining people who had been bewitched gradually awoke from the illusion.

When these people woke up, they all seemed very confused, not knowing what had happened, their eyes filled with bewilderment and confusion.

When they gradually regained their senses and saw that the ropes binding the siren had vanished without a trace,

They instinctively reached for the rope, wanting to tie it up again to ensure the safety of the tribe.

Seeing their reactions, Lu Yao quickly spoke up to stop them and then explained the current situation to them in detail.

Upon hearing Lu Yao say that an unknown force seemed to be quietly approaching the tribe with unclear intentions, the chief's expression instantly became tense.

After Lu Yao finished explaining everything in detail, the leader gave everyone some instructions.

The high shaman led everyone to handle the rest of the matters. After saying this, the leader quickly left with several strong orcs.

As they watched their leader and his entourage walk further and further away, everyone in the tribe was filled with worry.

Their eyes revealed uncertainty about the future and deep concern for the safety of their tribe.

It is unknown what fate awaits the tribe in the days to come.

Lu Yao keenly sensed the fluctuations in everyone's emotions; she knew that at such a moment,

Excessive worry only makes people restless and is not conducive to the stability of the tribe.

So she decided to get everyone involved in their work so they wouldn't overthink things.

"It's getting late," Lu Yao said softly.

"So, are you planning to stay here and continue our deeper interaction with the siren?"

Or do you want to go back to your own affairs and do your part for the tribe?

Upon hearing this, everyone looked up at the sky and realized that it was indeed getting late.

Although they all longed to learn more about the mysteries of the siren here,

But recalling his previous experience of being inexplicably bewitched by the siren, and the various crises that the tribe might face now.

After careful consideration, everyone decided to leave.

The group expressed that although they could not go out on patrols and fight bravely like the orcs,

But they can contribute to the tribe's security in their own roles.

They can craft more sophisticated bows and arrows, enhancing the tribe's ranged attack capabilities;

They can also make defensive tools such as firecrackers, using sound and fire to drive away potential invading enemies.

After all the tribesmen who wanted to leave had said their goodbyes, only a few strong orcs, Lu Yao, and the Great Shaman remained.

The siren sat quietly on the ground, a hint of wariness and doubt flickering in her strange eyes.

It also seems to be considering its next move and how to coexist with these humans.

Looking at the sea monster, Lu Yao felt that sitting and talking like this was not a long-term solution.

She felt that providing the siren with a more comfortable environment would also facilitate further communication and understanding between them.

Therefore, Lu Yao communicated with the siren in a gentle tone.

She patiently explained her ideas, hoping the siren would understand and cooperate with their actions.

Surprisingly, the siren nodded in agreement.

Upon receiving the siren's response, several robust orcs immediately sprang into action.

They carefully lifted the siren, trying not to offend it.

With everyone's efforts, the siren was safely carried back to the cave where it had been sleeping.

The Great Witch and Lu Yao followed closely behind, discussing their next plan in hushed tones as they walked.

Realizing that none of them had eaten since morning, their stomachs began to rumble.

Because I had been in a state of tension, I didn't feel hungry.

But now that I've relaxed, that feeling of hunger comes rushing in like a tidal wave.

Lu Yao smiled helplessly. She felt she had to prepare some food to fill everyone's stomachs first.

So she said goodbye to the shaman and hurriedly left to get the food.

Lu Yao walked quickly toward the tribe's kitchen, silently praying that there would be food that could be eaten directly there.

The aroma of food filled the air even before they reached the cave. The group, who were busy at work, saw Lu Yao approaching.

They warmly invited her in to eat.

"Oh my, I can smell the delicious food you cooked from so far away!"

I'm starving! Thank you all, but I won't eat here anymore.

I need to take more to the High Priestess and the others. Is what you've made enough? If not, I can make some myself.

"Don't worry, we've done a lot. We figured everyone must be hungry since they haven't eaten. Just take what you need."

"Do you need our help? If not, we'll continue with our work," he said when Lu Yao waved her hand, indicating she didn't need any help.

"The cooked food is all over there. Here, take this basket and put it in here."

Lu Yao reached out and took it: "Okay, you guys continue with your work, I can pack it myself."

She packed the food into a basket, then said goodbye to everyone and hurried back to the cave.
