Chapter 366 - 297: Military Patronage? The Plague Spreading Throughout the Military!_1

Chapter 366: Chapter 297: Military Patronage? The Plague Spreading Throughout the Military!_1

At the border of the Wind-Speaking Prairie and Ruin City, a massive military camp had emerged.

Over four hundred thousand Cave Beastmen had gathered here, their ferocity rising to the heavens.

Jackal Werewolves, Hyena Men, Dogmen, along with some Lizard-men, Mastiff Men, Bat-men, and more.

Around the military camp were numerous smaller camps, hosting vast numbers of Dogmen, Ratkin, goblins, and other lesser tribes.

Altogether, the number of troops in the entire tribal military camp was at least seven to eight hundred thousand!

Inside the main tent of the camp, more than ten Jackal Werewolf clan chiefs and Sacrificers were assembled for a meeting.

There were also many tribe chiefs from the smaller tribes of Ratkin, goblins, Dogmen, enjoying strong liquor, roasted meat, and fruits, all loudly discussing various matters.

“Hahaha, for this attack on the Human Race territory, our tribe has brought even twelve-year-old boys, a total of fifty thousand strong and able-bodied! This time we will surely erase the Human Race territory from the Wilderness!”

“Hehehe! My tribe has also made an all-out effort! This is a Cave mobilization order, but it is unknown whether the main tribe will come?”

“How could the main tribe care for such a trivial battlefield beyond their borders? Their main battlefield should be in the outer realms now…”

“I’ve heard that the main tribe will dispatch a Bipedal Flying Dragon squadron of the Wolf Tribe!”

“What on earth has happened? Why has the main tribe mobilized so many troops all of a sudden?”

“Lord Adak, do you know?”

The more than ten Jackal Werewolf clan chiefs and the smaller tribe chiefs asked curiously.

“Hahaha… Of course, I know!”

At the head of the crowd, an imposing Jackal Werewolf over two meters tall with bulging muscles sat laughing heartily.

“One of our red-robed Sacrificers discovered an enormous Energy Crystal Vein in the Wilderness, which covers almost the entire Wilderness!”

“What? An enormous Energy Crystal Vein?”

“How is that possible? Aren’t such colossal Energy Crystal Veins only found in worlds with dense populations and abundant wildlife? How could there be one in a battlefield of alien races… ”

Almost all the Jackal Werewolf clan chiefs and smaller tribe chiefs present were startled, some even dropping their wine flasks.

Great Chieftain Adak of the Jackal Werewolves laughed and said, “How could this be false? In order to hide the news of this vein, the main tribe didn’t even dare to mobilize troops on a large scale. They only dispatched a Bipedal Flying Dragon squadron, aiming to quietly drive the Blue Star Human Race out and monopolize this exotic battlefield!”

“As long as we can occupy the Wilderness and seize control of this Energy Crystal Vein, the strength of our tribe could increase several fold!”

“And we, of the smaller tribes, will also make a great contribution. I’m sure we’ll receive no small reward, hahaha…”

Suddenly, a Ratkin tribe chief with two long mustaches asked, “Lord Adak, do you know where exactly that colossal vein is…?”

“Hmm?”

Adak frowned, but still said, “Skor, that’s a secret of our tribe; it’s best you do not inquire into it.”

“This information is something the upper tribe disclosed to us only to stabilize our hearts a little.”

“Moreover, the upper tribe has made it clear that once the whole Wilderness is occupied, they will choose three tribes to bestow the entire Wilderness upon, making it their respective tribe’s home star!”

“What? Home star!”

“Is the main tribe really willing to be so generous?”

“Our tribe’s prosperity is hopeful…”

The more than ten figures present were extremely excited.

For them, a group of smaller tribes affiliated with a powerful race, having a world, plane, or star of their own was an enormous reward!

Just by owning a star, the strength of their tribe would experience a tremendous boost.

However, for the weaker tribes, the idea of possessing a plane world of their own was nothing more than a pipe dream.

But now, the main tribe had actually agreed to bestow the Wilderness. Even if it was shared among three tribes, it was a pleasant surprise to them.

Adak’s eyes shone with unmatched excitement, “In this battle, we Cave Beastmen will surely drive the Blue Star Human Race out!”

“How could the mere Blue Star Human Race possibly stand a chance against our tribe?”

A group of Jackal Werewolf clan chiefs and smaller tribe chiefs became enthused, their blood boiling with excitement.

“Kill them all!”

“Drive them out!”

“An enormous Energy Crystal Vein… no wonder this world is mostly Wilderness, with the few forests also surrounded by Iron Eating Trees and thorny bushes…”

“Wait a minute! Could it be that the colossal Energy Crystal Vein is beneath the Splendid Forest?”

“Shh… Silence!”

Adak abruptly stood up and exclaimed loudly, “This battle also has another mission, which is the trial of the latest generation inheritor of the main tribe’s ancestral bloodline!”

Professionist is called by different names among various races.

Blue Star People become Professionists.

But the Beastman Tribe calls them Inheritors!

The descendants inheriting the abilities and talents of their ancestors!

“Over one hundred Inheritors from the main tribe have entered the Wilderness for their trials, to engage in killing with what the Blue Star Human Race calls Professionists, and we…”

As they were discussing, suddenly a Messenger Soldier rushed in, saying anxiously, “Great Chieftain! Our Military Teleportation Array has been activated unexpectedly!”

“What?”

Adak stood up and said, “Wasn’t the Military Teleportation Array sealed long ago? How could… No, that’s not right!”

“To activate the Teleportation Array under a seal, it can only mean that the Teleportation Charm used is of the highest grade. Quickly…”

The group hurriedly rushed out, barely lifting the tent curtain, when they saw a figure clad in pure white, walking towards them, flanked by many Jackal Werewolves.

“Wolf!”

“Snow Werewolf!”

“Royal Family!”

Adak’s complexion changed slightly as he quickly greeted respectfully, “Jackal Werewolf Adak greets the main tribe; I wonder what brings the main tribe here…”

The person who had teleported to this location using a Teleportation Charm was none other than Freya.

Her face had returned to calm at this moment, but her eyes were still filled with rage.

With a flip of her hand, a claw-shaped token appeared in her palm.

“I am Freya of the Snow Werewolf from the Wolf Tribe; who are you?”

Adak’s heart tightened. After glancing at the token, he quickly said, “Your Highness Freya, this humble one is the Chief of the Jackal Werewolves’ Windwolf Tribe, Adak. I wonder…”

“Adak…”

Freya proceeded towards the tent, with the others promptly following.

“Chief Adak, how far is it from here to the Splendid Forest?”

“Splendid Forest…”

The expressions on their faces changed slightly, and it was Adak who spoke, “Her Highness Freya, this place is the flank of the Cave Beastmen army, approximately thirty kilometers from the Splendid Forest.”

“Thirty kilometers…”

Her Teleportation Charm was bestowed by the tribe, of the highest level of teleportation, capable of connecting with all Teleportation Arrays within the Beastman Tribe’s territory.

However, in the Wilderness, due to the broken rules, it could only transport approximately thirty kilometers.

“Cave Beastmen…” Freya said in a deep voice, “How many sacrificers are there in the army now?”

Sacrificers were a position within the Beastman Empire’s military, mostly composed of powerful outsiders.

Most were of a level above LV69, and there were even several Epic Level grand sacrificers!

“Ten, thirteen,” Adak said with a hint of surprise, “Your Highness, do you need a sacrificer for something? Wouldn’t it be better to mobilize the Military Inheritors…”

“No!”

Freya said coldly, “I am also one of the Trial Participants of this trial, and mobilizing the Military Inheritors would inevitably be recorded.”

“Thirteen sacrificers, huh… That should be enough.”

The anger in her eyes receded slightly, replaced by a rich sense of nostalgia and hesitation.

“That damned Human Race Trial Participant, killing him would be letting him off too easily!”

“I want to capture him and train him into the most obedient slave, I must…”

Freya took a deep breath and said, “Bring them to me…”

Before she finished speaking, a Messenger Soldier rushed in urgently.

“Chief…”

Adak frowned, “What’s the matter, what happened, didn’t you see…”

“It’s alright.”

Freya asked, “What happened, to make you so rushed?”

The Messenger Soldier nervously reported, “Your Highness, Chief, the chieftain of the Hyena Wolf Tribe, Lord Ahad, requests an audience!”

“Ahad? Bring him in quickly!”

Soon, Ahad barged in covered in dust, bringing with him a stench of blood.

“Ahad, what happened to you? Weren’t you sent to the Splendid Forest…”

“Lord Adak!”

Ahad said breathlessly, “The Wind-Speaking Prairie has an outbreak of Hydrophobia! Quickly, notify the other units and tribes!”

“What? Hydrophobia?!”

Before Ahad could finish, everyone in the tent erupted with shock.

Especially the sacrificers from the Jackal Werewolf, Dogmen, and Hyena Man, who turned pale with fear.

While the sacrificers and chiefs from the Lizard-men and Bat-men showed eyes filled with panic, instinctively distancing themselves from the nearby Jackal Werewolf and Dogmen.

Freya’s complexion also soured as she said, “Is this matter true?”

“Absolutely true!”

Ahad gritted his teeth, “On the instructions of the main tribe, my Blood Hyena Tribe was sent to hunt down a Human Race Sub-dragon Knight, only to discover there was an outbreak of Hydrophobia in the Splendid Forest.”

“Of my tribe’s more than five hundred warriors, only a hundred returned…”

“What?”

“Hydrophobia! It’s actually Hydrophobia! What do we do now?”

“Lord Adak, Hydrophobia is a deadly epidemic for us Dogmen…”

Adak’s heart skipped a beat as he instinctively turned to ask, “Her Highness Freya, what do we do now?”

Although Freya was a Snow Werewolf of the Wolf Tribe and an Inheritor, she was still young and had never dealt with such a situation before.

Next to her, a middle-aged sacrificer stepped forward.

“Great Chief, if the outbreak of Hydrophobia on the Wind-Speaking Prairie is true, the most important thing is to prevent other tribes’ Hyena Werewolf from entering the camp!”

“Right, right, right…”

Adak hastily shouted, “Someone!”

Immediately, two Hyena Werewolf ran in, “Great Chief!”

“Issue the orders! Seal the camp, no one is allowed out, and the other tribes’ Hyena Werewolf and Hyena Man coming to join us should encamp on the spot, they are not allowed into the camp!”

“Yes, Great Chief!”

Teck continued, “Also, send word to the main tribe, Hydrophobia is a serious matter that could spread across the entire Wind-Speaking Prairie, we must not hide it from the main tribe!”

“Yes, Sacrificer sir!”

“And…”

The sacrificer continued, “Quickly send for the tribe’s Witch Doctors, only they know how to deal with Hydrophobia. Also, send an inspection team to accompany the Witch Doctors, following their orders!”

“Whatever the Witch Doctor says to do, do it.”

“Yes!”

“Also! More!”

Teck’s gaze was fixed intently on Ahad, “Lock Ahad up! No one is to approach him!”

“Any messenger from other tribes arriving later should also be locked up, they are not allowed into the camp!”

“What?”

Several chiefs were shocked, for Ahad had sprinted for a day to bring them the news, how could they…”

Ahad himself calmly said, “Sacrificer Teck is right, I’ve come from the outside, and I may well be infected by the epidemic. Indeed, I should be locked up!”

“Alright!”

Adak spoke up, “Brother Ahad, once all this is over and you are unscathed, I’ll treat you to a drink!”

“Thanks, Great Chief!”

Teck added, “The incubation period for Hydrophobia is seven days! If Brother Ahad is fine within seven days, he can be released…”

Just then, another Jackal Werewolf stumbled in, and said in terror:

“High Priest! It’s, it’s bad!”

“What happened?”

“The dozen or so tribe members brought by Lord Ahad have gone mad, biting many of us.”

“And, and Lord Ahad’s mount wolf too, it has already killed more than a dozen other mount wolves!”

“What?!”
