Chapter 76: Had never met such a shameless, despicable, and cunning tribe

Elder Senior Brother threw away the bone shovel he was working on and picked up a stone from the ground, shouting to the others, "Hurry, get up on the low wall!"

As he shouted, he ran towards the eastern wall.

Even without his command, the people in the tribe, who had practiced this numerous times before, abandoned their tasks upon hearing the Third Senior Brothers call. They rushed towards the eastern wall, and those close by or agile enough had already climbed the low wall.

Apart from the initial day when they had practiced this five times, they had conducted several more drills.

The tribe's young children rushed into the caves, and women carrying infants in their arms hurriedly placed their children inside the caves, ignoring the crying babies. Then, they swiftly ran out again, climbing onto the low wall.

This was agreed upon during the previous drills. Due to the shortage of manpower in the tribe, Han Cheng insisted that everyone with some ability should participate when enemies attacked.

The previous drills played a significant role. At least, when suddenly hearing of an enemy attack, although the people were panicked, they generally knew what they should do.

However, there were also oversights. Not knowing if enemies were outside the other two walls, everyone rushed towards the east wall, neglecting the west and front-facing south walls.

Fortunately, the people responsible for vigilance behind those two walls raised a tree stick tied with animal skin, which could be called a flag.

This had been stipulated by Han Cheng earlierraising a flag represented that there were no enemies on that side.

However, those responsible for vigilance on both sides of the wall did not leave. They stood there, paying extra attention to any movement in the direction they were guarding against. This was to prevent enemies from sneaking up from behind while the Green Sparrow tribe was engaged with the attackers on the east wall.

Adult men and women from the tribe rushed to the east wall, climbed onto the low wall, and prepared to throw sharpened wooden spears.

When Han Cheng arrived, only ten adult males were in the tribe, not counting the elderly Shaman. Among them, some had leg injuries. Ironhead and Hei Wa had also become adults, meaning there were twelve adult males. Including adult females and the newly-adult strong youths, there were twenty-nine.

Excluding the one person standing behind each of the west and south walls, as well as a plump woman, thirty-eight adults were participating in the defense against the attackers at the east wall.

He had led his people to conquer more than six tribes, and no tribe had survived their attacks. This accursed tribe would be no exception.

Even if they lived in peculiar caves and had detected their movements in advance, this outcome would not change.

At most, they would only survive a few moments longer.

However, the chaotic scene of people falling one after another shattered the beautiful dream he had envisioned.

After clearly seeing what was revealed beneath the accumulated snow, the leader of the Flying Snake tribe, infuriated and astonished, couldn't help but curse repeatedly.

They were too cunningabsurdly cunning.

He had attacked many tribes before and had never seen a tribe as shamelessly and treacherously clever as this one. They were even more cunning than his Flying Snake tribe.

Not only was the leader of the Flying Snake tribe shocked and angered by this unexpected turn of events, but even the Green Sparrow tribe, the attacked party, was also dumbfounded.

Elder Senior Brother stood with his people on the low wall, exposing almost half of his body outside. Like the others, he held a well-sharpened wooden spear or a stone spear with a sharp stone tied to the front end. They were prepared to counterattack when the attacking tribe entered the effective attack range. However, before these aggressively approaching people arrived, such a scene occurred.

Even though it was wartime, many people still turned their heads quickly, looking at the Divine Child, who, like the other underage individuals, stood on the edge of the low wall, ready to pass weapons. There was a quick and reverent glance at the priest.

The Divine Child was right. The storm that had changed the world's color before was not a devil's curse, as the Divine Child mentioned. Instead, it was a blessing from the gods.

The gods not only bestowed abundant fuel and building materials upon their tribe but also helped their tribe defend against invading enemies.

This

All of this was because of the presence of the Divine Child.
