I thrived in the primitive tribe

After what happened before, the patrol teams in the tribe patrolled even more closely, checking every nook and cranny of the tribe very carefully, for fear that wild animals might wander in.

And so everyone spent some time peacefully. Lu Yao taught the tribespeople every day and learned some pharmacological knowledge from the Great Shaman. During this time, something very happy happened.

Many young couples in the tribe are pregnant, which means that the Dragon Alliance tribe will soon welcome new life, and they are the tribe's new hope.

Previously, due to the harsh living environment, no new life had been born in the Dragon Alliance tribe for a long time. Upon hearing this good news, the Great Shaman's eyes were filled with tears of excitement. She held Lu Yao's hand and kept saying thank you.

Thank you, Lu Yao, for bringing change and new life to the Dragon Alliance tribe.

Lu Yao was extremely embarrassed. She felt she should thank the expectant mothers, as it had nothing to do with her.

The Great Shaman, however, believed that Lu Yao was responsible for all of this, and Lu Yao's importance in the Great Shaman's heart increased by more than one level.

Life went on as usual, and as time went by, this peaceful life gradually made the tribe members lower their guard. They began to believe that such days would last forever.

However, just as this comfort and confidence reached its peak, a sudden storm shattered all the tranquility and harmony, almost pushing the entire Dragon Alliance tribe to the brink of annihilation.

That day, everything seemed the same as usual. Everyone went about their business as usual, each fulfilling their duties. However, beneath this tranquil surface, an unseen undercurrent was quietly brewing.

Suddenly, a deafening roar shattered the silence, followed by a slight tremor of the earth.

This left the busy crowd completely baffled, wondering what had happened.

Lu Yao's heart skipped a beat. [Could this be an earthquake?]

She cautiously asked the high priest, "Has this happened before, high priest?"

The great shaman was also puzzled at this moment, wondering what was going on. "No, my master never told me about this situation."

As the tremors subsided, people gradually stopped taking it seriously and went back to doing what they were doing.

However, Lu Yao felt that things were not so simple. She felt that such a loud noise must have meant that something had happened there, and if it was an earthquake, there might be a second one.

If it were something else, she didn't know what the situation would be.

[Could it be a mudslide? That shouldn't be possible; there are so many trees here, a large-scale mudslide shouldn't occur. Could it be a landslide? That seems a bit far-fetched; the mountainside hasn't been excavated, so how could it have collapsed?]

Lu Yao was always uneasy, so she went to the Great Shaman and told her her concerns. Although the Great Shaman felt that it shouldn't be a big deal, she still reported the matter to the leader.

Upon learning this, the leader initially intended to go out and investigate, but the water level in the trenches they had dug earlier had risen quite high, and crossing them would require considerable effort. After careful consideration, he decided to leave it at that for the time being.

He gathered the tribe members and explained all of Lu Yao's concerns to them, urging everyone to be vigilant about changes in the surrounding environment and to report any problems immediately.

And so the matter was dropped. As the days went by, they no longer felt any tremors like this, nor did they hear any more loud noises, and people gradually forgot about it.

There are rumors circulating in the tribe that Lu Yao's anxiety is due to being too tired before the rainy season and not getting enough rest during the rainy season.

When they realized that nothing had actually happened, some people in the tribe said that Lu Yao was just being too sensitive, as if she really was a divine messenger and could receive the Beast God's senses.

Later, the rumors became increasingly offensive, and Lu Yao stopped the shaman who wanted to teach them a lesson. "It's alright, shaman. Maybe I was wrong. Since I was wrong, we can't stop people from talking, can we? Let them talk if they want."

The Great Shaman, seeing that Lu Yao didn't seem to care much, let it go.

The clansmen, who were previously very wary, became less cautious after hearing many rumors about Lu Yao wielding a chicken feather as a weapon.

Just when they were becoming increasingly lazy, reality dealt them a heavy blow.

That evening, after everyone finished dinner, they gradually went to rest. The guards were also somewhat lax because nothing had happened before.

At first, when Lu Yao said that the situation was unclear and they needed to be cautious, they followed the leader's instructions and remained vigilant. However, when they found that nothing was actually happening, they began to relax.

The leader saw it but didn't think anything was wrong, so he turned a blind eye and didn't pay much attention to it.

So by the time the sentries discovered the approaching beasts, they were already upon them. If it weren't for the defensive works they had built earlier, their tribe would have been wiped out in their sleep.

Just as this person was getting up to change shifts, he noticed a pair of deep blue eyes intently watching their tribe from the front of the trench.

His drowsiness was instantly jolted awake. Seeing the dense array of wild animal eyes, he frantically rang the alarm bell, thinking, "Thank goodness, thank goodness, they haven't crossed the trench yet."

But what he didn't notice was that in the corner, there were already quite a few wild animal carcasses floating in the trench.

In other words, a group of wild beasts had already attempted to advance towards the Dragon Alliance tribe, but they failed to cross because they were not good swimmers and were not tall enough.

When the people in the tribe, who were fast asleep, heard the alarm bell ringing, they knew that danger was approaching.

The leader quickly put on his raincoat and ran towards the direction from which the alarm had been sounded. When he stood on the watchtower, he was also frightened by the scene before him.

He had never seen so many animals attack a tribe at once. He forced himself to calm down, because he knew that panic at this moment would be tantamount to suicide for the tribe.

The only way to overcome this difficulty is to rely on my previous experience and the current situation.

Thinking back to what Lu Yao had told them before, that this tremor was a bit unusual and that they should pay more attention, he was now filled with regret. He had completely believed her and acted on her advice.

However, discordant voices kept emerging within the tribe, affecting everyone, including himself. He thought nothing was wrong and that Lu Yao was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Suddenly, he recalled what the shaman had told him at the beginning: that those with problematic ideas would affect the development of the tribe and might even lead to its destruction. He broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

He now deeply regrets his past actions, wondering why he failed to seize the two opportunities he had been given, letting them slip away right before his eyes.

However, the most important thing right now is how to get through this difficult time.

The leader's mind raced with conflicting thoughts, but in reality, it was all over in an instant.

Then, alarm bells were rung in different locations throughout the tribe, indicating that the tribe was surrounded.

The man standing on the watchtower looked at the swarm of beasts before him, his face ashen, thinking to himself that this time he was doomed.

They never imagined that just when life was finally getting better, they had enough food, and the tribe was developing even better, they would soon perish at the hands of wild animals.

A somber atmosphere enveloped everyone.
