Chapter 402: Chapter402-The Showdown! A New Beast
John continued to maneuver the Serpent, but his mind was already surveying everything around him.

He had noticed something early on.

Near the Zebra Tribe, within a radius of about 5 kilometers, there were tribal inscriptions that seemed to serve as protection or perhaps as a sort of outpost.

If anything unusual happened here, the high priest would surely be the first to know.

So, John had a rough idea of what was going on.

He noticed that there was no peculiar luminance in the immediate vicinity.

After traveling another five or six kilometers forward, he began to feel the light around him becoming more concentrated.

However, this light was different from the golden glow he had seen earlier; it had a faint green tinge.

In this green forest, the light was not particularly noticeable unless illuminated by the sunlight, which faintly reflected a pale green radiance.

Meanwhile, the tribal chief’s face took on a serious expression.

He made a distinct gesture to those behind him, prompting the natives to become alert.

“We are approaching the Eagle Tribe’s territory,” he said.

“We can’t possibly sneak past them unnoticed, so we must move quickly!”

John roughly understood what was happening.

The tribal chief looked at John with anticipation.

“I wonder how many more such beasts you, Divine Envoy, can summon? Perhaps we should all charge together?”

John knew that relying on their own feet would be too slow compared to the serpents.

With a faint nod, he remained silent but his staff flickered, and in that instant, several serpents sprang into existence.

The enormous serpents appeared before everyone, causing all eyes to widen involuntarily.

They had seen them before, but the sight was still surprising at this moment.

They were simply too large, larger than any serpent they had ever encountered.

These serpents seemed different from those they were familiar with, which were at most around ten meters long.

But now, each of these serpents stretched twenty to thirty meters in length and, moreover…

These serpents were extremely friendly to them, requiring no wariness.

At John’s call, everyone excitedly climbed onto the backs of the serpents, letting them swiftly carry them forward.

Their hearts throbbed with excitement, and their faces were alight with brilliant smiles.

Meanwhile, the Eagle Tribe also sensed something was amiss.

Their outposts had already detected a large number of beasts approaching!

The chief of the Eagle Tribe’s eyes widened as he urgently summoned his warriors.

“Emergency assembly, now! Prepare for battle!”

Everyone felt the presence of a large number of beasts approaching, yet they were unsure of their nature.

However, when their outpost’s inscriptions reflected that it was the Zebra Tribe approaching, they were utterly shocked.

Hadn’t the Zebra Tribe always kept a low profile, avoiding their presence?

Why would they now aggressively move towards them, and what was with the multitude of beasts accompanying them?

Fear filled everyone’s eyes, and Dark Fox was among the first to rush to the battlefield.

“Flower! What are you planning to do?” the chief asked worriedly.

Hearing the chief call out his name, Dark Fox’s face involuntarily twisted with irritation and even a bit of uncontrollable emotion.

It was embarrassing for a man to have been given a name that meant “flower” and to find himself in the body of a girl.

The chief of the Eagle Tribe looked at his daughter, who appeared excited.

“Go back quickly, don’t worry, your father will definitely protect you.”

He was acutely aware of his daughter’s beauty and the dire consequences if she were to be taken by the Zebra Tribe.

Originally, Dark Fox thought his father’s worry stemmed from the typical concerns a father has for his daughter.

But unexpectedly…

Dark Fox’s face showed a look of resentment as he clenched his teeth tightly.

“Father, rest assured, I am one of our people, and I will share the fate of our tribe. I will not stand aside and watch our tribe suffer alone.”

Upon hearing this, the chief of the Eagle Tribe felt a surge of emotion—after all, this was his daughter speaking.

“Hua, I know what you’re thinking, but you are too beautiful. If those people see you, they will surely take you away, and I cannot bear that pain.”

Hearing this, Dark Fox struggled to maintain his composure.

Too beautiful?

He was momentarily confused whether these words were meant to comfort him or if they implied something else.

But there was no time to linger on these thoughts; the ground beneath them was already trembling.

As they drew nearer to the opposing tribe, John also noticed something unusual—this time, there were three small blue dots within the tribe.

John involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief; at least now all three of his teammates were within this tribe.

Following a recent system upgrade, he discovered a new feature.

In the secret realm, once he spotted his teammates’ blue dots, he could open their panels to check their current conditions.

He found that both Silver Tear and Dark Fox were in normal condition, but Victor seemed to be under a ‘weakness’ buff with a countdown of 10 days.

The buff was marked as non-dispellable, with an additional note:

[Some mysterious power, once fully dissipated, may bestow unusual strength upon the body.]

Upon reading this, John immediately thought of the divine powers discussed earlier.

However, since he had not yet seen Victor in person, he could only take things one step at a time.

When the people of the Eagle Tribe saw the many Thorned Rock Serpents, they involuntarily held their breath.

Their expressions turned to utter terror.

What was happening here?

When had the Zebra Tribe acquired so many beasts?

Where had these creatures come from?

Why had there been no whispers of this before?

Wasn’t it the Panther Tribe that possessed the ability to train beasts?

When did the Zebra Tribe also acquire such capabilities?

Could it be that there was some dreadful pact between the Panther Tribe and the Zebra Tribe?

The chief of the Eagle Tribe’s face soured in an instant.

Simultaneously, ominous suspicions began to brew in his mind.

If the other two tribes had indeed allied, their own demise was imminent.

The chief of the Zebra Tribe, seeing his prepared enemies, felt a surge of exhilaration.

“Charge!” he commanded.

The warriors of the Zebra Tribe, also stirred by fervor, waved their arms and shouted, “Charge, for the war and honor of our tribe!”

In that moment, war between the two tribes was imminent.

John also suddenly spotted that small blue dot among the crowd.

He stared in disbelief at the imposing figure.
