The Sky Bird Tribe is a small tribe that is very common in the Crystal World. It is located on the edge of the Crystal Cluster Forest. Although the products here are not rich, it is enough to feed the entire tribe. And most importantly, there are no too ferocious animals here.
Crystal creatures, so the Sky Bird Tribe has lived here comfortably for generations.
The population of the entire tribe is not large, only four or five hundred people. Except for Kenneth, the strongest fifth-level warrior, there are only a dozen fourth-level warriors, and most of the others are third-level or lower. Fortunately,
Although those low-level tribesmen cannot go out hunting like powerful warriors, they can also play a role in other places because of the accompanying crystals.
At this time, in the center of the tribe, Kenneth, the leader of the Sky Bird Tribe and the strongest warrior, four tribal elders and Samira were discussing the future of the tribe. Originally, Samila was not qualified to join it due to her strength and status.
, but her accompanying crystal is naturally special, so the senior leaders of the tribe regard it as the future of the tribe, so she will be involved in many things. Of course, most of the time she just listens quietly and does not speak.
"The Adventer is here again, what should we do next? Should we evacuate here?"
"Evacuate? This is our place of survival. Where else can we go if we leave here?"
"Evacuation is impossible, the arrival of the descendants is uncertain, and we have no way of knowing whether there are descendants in other places."
"Everyone, calm down first. Maybe things are not as bad as we think. According to Kenneth's description, the descendants they encountered this time are the kind that can communicate. Maybe we can..."
"No! The descendants cannot be trusted. Have you forgotten the history recorded in the clan?!"
"But after all, those are records from hundreds of years ago, and they are still incomplete..."
Listening to everyone's quarrel, the old patriarch suddenly shook the scepter in his hand, making a muffled sound, and the room suddenly fell silent.
"Kenneth, you are describing the situation at that time, and I need your judgment."
Kenneth responded respectfully, and then recounted the situation of the day again, starting from when they went deep into the Crystal Cluster Forest and were besieged by the Crystal Eagles. He recounted their encounter in detail, and finally concluded: "I can't be sure about that.
Whether the descendant had any malicious intentions, he tried to communicate with us, but at that time I had some scruples so I ignored him and chose to leave directly."
The patriarch nodded: "Kenneth, you did the right thing!"
Then he looked around at everyone: "There is no need to discuss the evacuation for the time being. From now on, the warriors who go out to hunt should avoid the direction of the descendants. Our Bird Tribe can survive the last disaster of the descendants so far, and this time it will be the same."
There will be no exceptions. Okay, let’s go.”
After saying that, he waved his hand to indicate that the meeting was over.
When everyone saw this, even if some people were unwilling, they could only give up.
It wasn't until everyone left that the old patriarch, who had been calm and composed, showed some hesitation.
After a long time, two elders were having a secret meeting in a certain room of the tribe.
"That old guy is really stubborn and won't let go."
"Yeah, it's obviously such a good opportunity, damn it!"
"No, we must find a way to make the people in the tribe change their minds and agree to evacuate! The Fire Leopard Tribe clearly offered such good conditions!"
"Yes, as long as the Tianniao tribe is integrated into the Fire Leopard tribe, the tribesmen can get better protection, and we can also..."
"Yes, everything is for the tribe..."

Lando is still exploring this crystal forest bit by bit, but the progress is extremely slow.
He had also 'accidentally' encountered several other hunting teams from the Sky Bird Tribe. Despite many attempts to show friendship, he was always treated coldly, which gradually exhausted his patience.
An idea that has been lingering in my heart gradually became firmer. To put it bluntly, it is very simple. What should I do if my favorability is not enough? Brush!
If the Tianniao Tribe encounters a crisis, and he happens to be nearby and has the ability to rescue them, as long as he helps them survive the crisis, wouldn't his favorability level skyrocket?!
When a hero saves a beauty, he also needs to be good-looking, so that the little girl will commit himself to him. Otherwise, he will have no choice but to repay the favor by being a cow or a horse in the next life.
With his good looks and his achievements in saving the tribe, his reputation went from indifference to admiration.
As for what to do if you take it off for fun? Haha!... Then let’s take it off for fun! Lando is not a ‘master’, so there is no need to have a plan B at all times!
Although Lando's exploration during this period was slow, he still achieved some results. There was a sixth-level crystal lizard living at the water source to the west of the Sky Bird Tribe, and there was a similarly sixth-level crystal grizzly bear in the mountain forest to the east.
His plan is very simple, lure one to the Sky Bird Tribe, and then help out. If there is no task, just create one yourself. The plan works!
Just when Lando was planning how to naturally 'attract monsters' and how to make his attacks less abrupt, something was happening in the Sky Bird Tribe that would disrupt all his plans.

In the Sky Bird Tribe, Kenneth was waiting at the door of the tribe, looking at the getting dark sky, and his expression slowly began to become anxious.
Generally, hunting teams set off on the same day and return on the same day. Only when Kenneth leads the team can they go further. It has already passed the time specified by the hunting team, but one group has not returned yet.
, that team was led by an old and experienced fourth-level warrior, who was also Kenneth's former teacher, so he was particularly anxious at this time.
"No, I'm going to look for it."
After making up his mind, Kenneth said to the soldiers around him: "I'm going to take a look nearby and I'll be back before dark. Please be careful during this time."
It was two fourth-level warriors who stood up and said: "We will go with you!"
Kenneth thought for a moment and said, "Okay!"
Looking at the retreating figures of the three people, the remaining soldiers, who had been a little nervous during this period, were now even more alert.
The three of them spread out slightly and began to search in the direction where the non-returning team left the tribe in the morning.
The afterglow of the sun slowly disappeared, and darkness gradually enveloped the earth. Even if this was only the outer area of the Crystal Cluster Forest, it would be quite dangerous if it fell late at night. With the strength of the returning team, it would be difficult for them to survive unharmed in this situation.
Just when Kenneth's heart sank little by little, his eyesight far beyond that of ordinary people suddenly made him notice something.
Kenneth, whose expression changed slightly, ran over quickly.
The other two fourth-level warriors who noticed Kenneth's movements not far away also immediately followed.
When they came to Kenneth, they saw the latter staring at the ground with an ugly expression. Following his gaze, they saw a body slightly buried by crystal clusters. Upon closer inspection, it was the body that had not returned to the team.
An older fourth-level warrior.
After Kenneth was silent for a moment, he stepped forward to move the body of the older warrior, intending to take it back to the tribe. Suddenly his eyes shrank, and two words were engraved under the old warrior: Arrival.
