Chapter 1128: Fire God’s Offering, Path to Death!

“Teacher, are we just going to waste our time like this?”

Liu Yuzhi sat down on his knees, wearing a solemn expression.

Previously, Zhang Wentao and her had followed the Gray Rock Tribe’s hunting team to hunt and collect animal blood. However, after the volcano eruption two days ago, the hunting was put to a stop.

Now, all the wild animals in the hilly regions were escaping as if they had gone crazy, making the difficulty of hunting increase tremendously.

“What else can we do?”

Zhang Wentao lay on the bed like a corpse. He wanted to help out too, but after being given a thrashing by reality, he had learned to behave.

(I f*cking shouldn’t have come to play this game!)

It was too difficult.

If it wasn’t because Sun Mo had helped out, he’d probably be a slave for life until he died from fatigue.

“Wait for Sun Mo to think of a way out!”

Zhang Wentao turned over.

Seeing her teacher’s good-for-nothing state, Liu Yuzhi felt displeased. “Teacher, you should get your act together.”

“Are you preaching me?”

Zhang Wentao bellowed, “Get my act together? You tell me how I’m supposed to get my act together?”

“In the Nine Provinces, when we encounter things that we don’t know, we can read books or seek guidance from our seniors. But this is the stone age.”

Zhang Wentao smashed his fist on the bed in anger. “I’m the most knowledgeable person here! Who am I supposed to ask help from?”

Liu Yuzhi wanted to say that Sun Mo was the most knowledgeable one.

“Just leave it to Sun Mo!”

Thinking of the things that Sun Mo had done, Zhang Wentao was convinced. To think that he even knew how to rear maggots and grow mushrooms.

Sun Mo was really well-learned and knowledgeable.

No!

Even a saint wouldn’t know how to rear maggots.

“I’ll go take a look at Teacher Sun!”

Liu Yuzhi went out.

“Yuzhi!”

Zhang Wentao shouted, “If you feel that Sun Mo is very amazing, you can acknowledge him as your teacher. I won’t mind. You have a good aptitude. Don’t waste it.”

Liu Yuzhi found Lu Zhiruo in the mushroom room and asked, “Where’s Teacher Sun?”

“He went to discuss the plans with the chieftain.”

Just as the papaya girl was talking, another loud boom rang out.

The two of them ran out and saw black smoke coming from the ends of the northeast direction. The black smoke rose into the sky, looking like dark clouds.

Hui Yan’s stone house was now filled with people. Even the members of the higher echelon in the tribe had come.

“The volcano has woken up completely. It’s time to send out the offering team and cast the ice stone into the volcano.”

A major character suggested.

“Why aren’t we choosing to move?”

Gu Xiuxun couldn’t understand.

Due to Sun Mo, they had the right to enter this house to listen to the discussion.

Although the people from the Nine Provinces didn’t understand a lot about the principles behind natural disasters like earthquakes and volcano eruptions, they knew that once this thing erupted, it wouldn’t be something that could be stopped by humans. Moving was undoubtedly a solution that could solve this problem for good.

“This is our homeland. Even if we are to die, we’ll die here.”

Several ten years ago, these people hadn’t left and had stayed behind. They were the conservative people, and it was even more impossible to get them to leave now.

“Is it really effective to throw ice stones into the volcano?”

Sun Mo doubted.

“It was what our ancestors did. As long as we throw ice stones into the volcano, we’d be able to appease its rage.”

The chieftain explained, “Great Prophet, please be at ease. We’ve succeeded six times.”

“Since that’s the case, why is it that some of your ancestors wanted to move?”

Bai Fu retorted.

Hui Yan fell silent.

“Chieftain, since you’re confident, why are you still wearing such a solemn expression?”

Sun Mo continued to ask, “And where did the ice stones come from?”

He felt that something wasn’t right about this.

“You guys can go out. I need to discuss an important matter with the prophet!”

Hui Yan instructed.

After everyone left, Hui Yan flipped up the stone house’s floor and took out a stone box from the ten-meter-deep cellar. He then opened the box, revealing a cherry-sized red stone that looked like a piece of coagulated blood.

“After our tribesmen die, they’ll be incinerated. Occasionally, there’d be an ice stone left behind. Such ice stones possess mysterious power and upon putting up a sacrificial offering and praying, we’ll be able to suppress the volcano eruption.”

Hui Yan divulged.

If it wasn’t because Sun Mo had proven his value, there was no way Hui Yan would have told him about this.

“…”

(This thing can’t be a crystallization, could it? Relying on a piece of stupid rock as well as the Ancestors Praying Ritual to be able to stop a live volcano from erupting? Are you kidding me? If that were the case, major characters like Einstein and Newton would jump out from the coffins and crush your dog head with their little fists!)

(Hold on. This is a game, so it might really work.)

“Have you guys thought about the possibility that the reason that the volcano stopped erupting might not be due to the ice stone’s effect, but that it wasn’t time for the volcano to have a huge eruption yet?”

Sun Mo raised a new possibility.

“Prophet, such ice stones can only be condensed by those from our bloodlines. Otherwise, why would the Red Rock Tribe want to hunt our tribesmen as sacrifices?”

Hui Yan felt a little displeased hearing Sun Mo’s doubt.

“Moreover, the reason I’m wearing a solemn expression is that this is our last ice stone. Even if we can tide over this episode safely, what will we do for the next volcano eruption?”

Hui Yan was a completely conservative guy. He didn’t wish to move, but they didn’t have any more ice stones.

(Why do we have to encounter such things when our life is just starting to get better? Have our ancestors abandoned us? Are they not giving us their protection anymore?)

“What do you want to do?”

Sun Mo frowned.

“Appease the volcano first before making other plans!” Hui Yan knelt. “Great Prophet, I hope that you can go with us!”

“Alright!”

Very soon, Sun Mo realized that this trip would be plagued with troubles.

That volcano was within the Red Rock Tribe’s territory, and it was their sacred mountain. Intruders would all be killed.

In just a day, a small group of 60 people was ready to set off.

Out of which, 20 of them were the tribe’s most valiant warriors. The others, except Sun Mo’s group, were all young boys and girls in their teens.

“Why are we bringing them along?”

Sun Mo couldn’t understand.

“This is a test. If they are to pass it, they’ll receive the ancestors’ protection and become the future pillars for the tribe.”

Since Hui Yan said this, Sun Mo had no reason to rebut even if he wished for them to stay behind.

“Teacher, can you bring me along?”

Lu Zhiruo looked like a puppy waiting to be fed, looking at Sun Mo with her big eyes.

“En!”

Sun Mo patted the lucky mascot’s head.

It was too dangerous to leave her behind. He might as well bring her along since he’d be able to take care of her then.

After a sumptuous dinner and a good night’s sleep, the group set off early the next morning.

As the volcano was about to erupt soon, there were incessant earthquakes. The hills were filled with escaping wild beasts, and this made the group’s advancement more difficult since they’d keep on coming into wild beasts and have to fight them.

The group hurried on their way and finally entered a mountainous region three days later.

“It’ll be the Red Rock Tribe further ahead. Everyone must be careful!”

Hui Yan reminded them.

“The names of these two tribes are really a love and hate relationship!”

Gu Xiuxun said.

After traveling for another half a day, the group stopped in the evening, starting a fire and cooking food.

“Teacher, let me do it.”

Liu Yuzhi took the initiative to help Sun Mo cook porridge.

Zhang Wentao was chewing on jerky when he saw that the few beautiful great teachers were waiting on Sun Mo. He felt so envious that he wanted to drool. “When will I be able to receive such treatment?”

The fragrance from the food made everyone, who had been tired from all the traveling, feel even hungrier.

“Chieftain, the food is ready!”

A young girl brought a roasted chicken to Hui Yan. However, before he received it, an arrow suddenly came attacking.

Swoosh!

Ssss!

The arrow hit the young girl’s neck and she immediately fell sideways to the ground.

“Enemy attack!” Hui Yan was shocked. “It’s the people from the Red Rock Tribe!”

Hui Yan’s warning was useless as the enemies’ attack had started. All sorts of arrows came shooting over like a tempest.

“Don’t panic! Don’t run around recklessly!”

Sun Mo grabbed Lu Zhiruo’s arm and pulled her to his side. He then held up a wooden shield with one hand, leaning his back against a big tree.

With that, he wouldn’t have to worry about there being enemies behind him.

Some of the tribesmen flew into a great rage when they saw their people die. They immediately charged in the direction of the arrows, wanting to fight it out with the enemies.

“Sun Mo, this is bad!”

Gu Xiuxun smiled bitterly, waving an arrow toward Sun Mo.

Sun Mo’s pupils contracted fiercely because this was a bronze arrow. Moreover, it clearly had poison on it.

Damn it!

The Red Rock Tribe had entered the bronze age?

Then how were they supposed to fight?

“Hui Yan, take command! Don’t let everyone run off recklessly!”

Sun Mo was an outsider after all. In such an emergency, no one would care about his orders.

“They aren’t running around recklessly! They are fighting!”

Hui Yan explained.

When they encountered an enemy attack, were they supposed to flee instead of fighting?

“…”

Sun Mo really had to give in to them. He felt like washing his hands off these primitive people and leaving them to their own demise. “Can’t you gather them up and attempt to make a breakthrough in a single direction before proceeding with a retaliation?”

“Everyone, charge over in this direction!”

Hui Yan bellowed.

Sun Mo heaved a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Hui Yan was still quite smart. The direction he chose didn’t have a high density of arrows, which meant that there weren’t many enemies lying in ambush in that direction.

“Bai Fu, Xiuxun, protect me on both sides!”

Sun Mo instructed while raising his longbow. He then shot an arrow toward the crown of a coastal redwood tree.

Swoosh!

The arrow shot through the air and in an instant, a primitive person dressed in red-colored animal skin fell, his head piercing into the soil.

With that, even if he wasn’t shot to death, he’d have fallen to death.

(F*ck! Isn’t it courting death to be going to war against people who can refine bronze arrows?)

(Hold on! The fact that they could enter the bronze age meant that there is a wise person amongst them. This means that they couldn’t possibly be as rash as Hui Yan during battles, right?)

“Could it be that there’s a trap?”

Sun Mo frowned and then shouted, “Hui Yan, change to charge in the other direction!”

“What’s the matter?”

Hui Yan couldn’t understand. The attacks in this direction were clearly lesser!

“Prophet, they’ve noticed it!”

When a member of the Red Rock Tribe who was in the dense forest heard this, he was shocked.

“Start attacking!”

The gaze of the Red Rock Tribe’s great prophet swept past those aboriginals who weren’t worth mentioning. It then landed on Sun Mo.

Interesting!

Splash! Splash!

Over 20 people suddenly popped up from their hiding places.

The prophet had instructed them to do so. They said that if they were to reveal their figures, they could deal a great blow to the enemies’ morales.

Hui Yan’s group really did get a fright and suddenly felt at a loss. They were then drowned by the arrows.

“Charge over here!”

Hui Yan bellowed and led them in the other direction.

“Xiuxun, Sister Jin, help me take care of Zhiruo.”

Sun Mo went all out, releasing his longbow rapidly and continuously like a crossbow. At the same time, he moved away from Jin Mujie and the other two.

Given how fierce the attacks were, the enemies would definitely focus their firepower. If he didn’t leave, he’d be a burden on Jin Mujie and the others.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Many arrows shot out and hit the people from the Red Rock Tribe. They started to fall with plopping sounds like cooked dumplings.

“Be careful! That guy’s archery is really amazing!”

“Shoot him to death first!”

“Battle to the death! Battle to the death!”

The Red Rock Tribe’s people bellowed loudly.

Sun Mo immediately became the focus of the attacks.

“Teacher!”

Watching as the arrows flew above Sun Mo’s head, Lu Zhiruo shouted out in panic.

Hui Yan’s group had managed to make a breakthrough. But retaliation?

They were tormented badly by the enemies’ battle tactics that they had lost their morales!

“Hurry up and move!” Sun Mo shouted, “With such morales, are you waiting for death to come to you?”

Bang!

Hui Yan smashed a punch onto a tree next to him. “Go!”

A short moment later, the temporary base fell quiet. There were only some faint moans as well as a strong smell of blood permeating.

The Red Rock Tribe’s people appeared. They didn’t proceed to kill the casualties but instead took care of their wounds.

It wasn’t that the Red Rock Tribe’s people were kind. What they wanted was to bring these injured people alive to the volcano, offering them as sacrifices to the Fire God.

“Great Prophet, why don’t we give chase?”

A bald tribesman didn’t understand.

“If we were to give chase now, they’ll fight to the death like trapped beasts. We might as well let them continue to escape and deplete their energy!”

The great prophet laughed. “They’ve lost a large amount of their supplies. It’ll definitely be even harder for them.”

The sky had gotten so dark that it was impossible to see things clearly. The group had no choice but to stop.

They didn’t even light up a fire for fear of getting discovered.

“How many people did we lose?”

Sun Mo got close to Hui Yan.

“16!”

Hui Yan was in pain, and he banged his head against a tree.

Sun Mo tugged his collar. “Stop banging your head first. What should we do next? Are we going to continue? Or head back?”

“Of course, we have to continue. If we don’t throw the ice stone into the volcano, how can we appease the Fire God’s fury?”

Hui Que let out a cold snort. “For the tribe’s future, even if all of us were to die, we won’t stop.”

“That’s right!” Hearing this, Hui Yan’s gaze became firm and determined. “The tribe’s future rests on our shoulders.”

“We still have witchcraft! We’ll definitely be able to win!”

Hui Shi swung his fist.

Sun Mo looked at these people’s fervent gazes and couldn’t be bothered to argue with them.

“What should we do? Continue to court death?”

Liu Yuzhi felt that this trip was hopeless.

“What else can we do?”

Sun Mo felt troubled too.

“We’ll split up and go back. After these people are wiped out, you’ll be the tribe’s great prophet and when that time comes, we’ll move!”

Liu Yuzhi proposed.

“What if the condition to clear the game is to appease the volcano eruption?”

Zhang Wentao pointed out.

“I feel that it should be to continue a civilization!”

Liu Yuzhi analyzed, “Doing something like throwing ice stones is too stupid.”

“Then how do you explain witchcraft? This is the Black-White Game. We can’t assess it with common sense.”

Zhang Wentao let out a cold snort.

“We’ll take a look at the situation tomorrow. I have the feeling that the enemies’ attacks won’t end just like that.”

Zhou Zerui felt very curious too. The Red Rock Tribe was clearly stronger than the Gray Rock Tribe, so why didn’t they wipe them out?

The next day, the group set off once again.

They had been on tenterhooks the entire day, but even after evening came, they didn’t encounter any assaults.

“We must have lost them.”

Hui Yan felt at ease and instructed everyone to set up camp and rest, have some good food, and regain their energy. Going by their current speed, they’d be able to arrive at the volcano’s sacrificial altar at noon the day after.

In the depths of the dense forest, a hunting team from the Red Rock Tribe was lying low and moving toward those from the Gray Rock Tribe.

When one of them saw Sun Mo, the person turned pale with fright.

Why was he here?

This was bad!
