Oneida took Hermione and walked towards the road they had come before. There were not many poisonous snakes and insects around them as before, but they all waited respectfully.
This was different from the Yaowu Yangwei she usually passed by alone. He was as docile as the hunting dog she raised.
The island is quite large, the sky has turned completely dark, and the mountains covered with plants are very close.
Considering taking care of Oneida who was traveling with her, Hermione asked her to stop and rest. For her, the distance was just a few shuttles.
Dry dead wood was piled together, and Oneida lit it to make a small bonfire, illuminating the surrounding environment. She then left and walked towards the jungle stream inside.
People in the Puer tribal forest can often be encountered, but none seem to be seen on the mountain. From this, it can be seen how closed-minded the people above are.
Oneida, who had been away for a while, took a black catfish as big as an arm, and then simply handled it and burned it directly on the fire.
The light gray skin was burnt black and cracked, and the two people looked at the burning bonfire in silence.
"Your Excellency, you are so strong that you don't even think about enslaving us. This is almost unheard of. The outsiders who come here all make us succumb to their force."
"I have no interest in these things. I may have done some oppressive things in the past, but forget it now. Who does it have to do with me?"
"If only outsiders could be like you, we wouldn't have to live in fear every day."
"Oneida, judging by your appearance, you should be communicating around the port area often."
The catfish had been burnt to a pitch black color. Oneida tore open the scorched skin on the outside and replied with a somewhat complicated expression.
"You must have seen a lot of mixed-race children in the city. Those people were born to the women who were tall outsiders who asked us tribes to pay tribute. I almost became a member of it, but when it became chaotic later, I didn't
If people pay attention to us anymore, they will come back to the tribe."
"It's hard to explain this kind of thing, and I can't comment on it. I can only say that you are very lucky."
"I can't imagine how scary it would be to face people who are half a body taller than us. I hope those who come this time will keep their promise."
"The people this time should be okay. After all, we have made a contract. Whether it can be realized next depends on you. You should also have seen those cannon fodder who were pushed to the front."
"They can't resist at all, otherwise they will be punished by their so-called gods, many of whom are from across the sea!"
Oneida asked Hermione if she wanted to eat it and sprinkled some brown powder particles on it.
Hermione took a small piece as a token of appreciation. The texture was a little dull, and the grains on it were a little bitter. It must have been unrefined salt.
"This world is indeed very unfair to ordinary people. Unity and the like are just empty words."
Hermione looked at the starry sky blocked by sparse leaves. She could destroy this place casually. The gap was really too big.
"Speaking of this, among the volcano residents of the Puer tribe, it is said that there is a very powerful wizard. It is precisely because of his existence that many people who have never been to this mountain forest will be blocked outside and cannot find their way around."
"This is good. It prevents innocent people from dying."
"No, they will take the initiative to grab the sacrifices. This is normal. It is only after we have had many contacts that we no longer have these sacrifices."
Many customs have been preserved in these relatively primitive places. For this truly responsive world, these sacrifices will be strongly sought after.
"It seems that there really is something in the spiritual sacrifice, and those coalition forces are coming too."
"If they dare to enter our forest, the warriors of our tribe are not vegetarians. It is time to avenge the dead."
"This time is different. There is something inside that attracts them. If it is too dangerous, I will teleport you away. Let me tell you in advance. I have a premonition that there will be a scuffle in the Puer Volcano tribe."
Oneida couldn't believe that Hermione here could predict what was happening outside, but strong people couldn't understand it according to their own common sense.
These ancient and wild primeval forests are not something outsiders can get used to. People from their own tribe can still escape inside even if they cannot defeat them.
After arranging dead wood for the fire on the ground that could burn for almost a long time, she found a few vines and tied them up to rest.
Hermione opposite seemed to be directly suspended in the air. If you look closely, there is some reflection. Is the spider silk so tough?
"You should be able to go there tomorrow morning. The rest is up to you, Your Excellency."
"It should be said that you have to rely on yourselves. If I didn't have a purpose, I would just go and have a look."
Hermione leaned on the hanging net made of spider silk, looked at the dark night and closed her eyes to rest. She had said everything she needed to say, let's see tomorrow.
The roar in the early morning woke the two of them up. Some intensive gunshots and artillery sounds came from a distance, but they had become very small here.
Oneida straightened her appearance and continued to lead Hermione forward. The forest in front was taller and denser than the one behind.
Walking to a large tree built on a pile of stones, Oneida stopped and looked at Hermione.
"Your Excellency, entering here is their territory. It will be difficult to enter without them leading the way."
"It's just an ordinary magical interference. Go in, I'm here."
Hermione simply ignored these small tricks that would disturb ordinary people, and walked into the area inside with Oneida.
There was a ray of fluctuation just now. As long as I don't want to, there will be no movement even if the place disappears.
Compared with the creatures outside, the ones inside have become more violent. Several evil spiders emerged from the inside, with several purple marks on their backs, which are about the same size as a human body. Their compound eyes exude a hallucinogenic light,
Put Oneida on alert quickly.
She originally thought there was going to be a fierce battle, but she found that the three spiders were actually trembling and kneeling on both sides of Hermione, as if they were meeting the queen of their own tribe.
The Charm Spiders have been basically hunted outside. Unexpectedly, there are still some inside the volcano area. If you encounter them alone, you can be prepared to pray for a quick death.
"I wish you good luck. I don't want to be too burdened right now. And I don't want to be hunted by those people."
Hermione signaled Oneida to continue setting off, and several spiders guarded on both sides to clear the way for the two of them.
After walking for a long time, Hermione signaled the agitated and aggressive spiders to step back, and the people from the Puel tribe in front came out.
It was very consistent with what she saw more than a thousand years ago. Although she had been asleep for such a long time, these primitive tribesmen remained unchanged.
Wearing tooth and shell ornaments, wrapped in several pieces of animal skin rags, and wearing a feather headdress.
"Outsiders, if you come in without permission, you will be punished. You should leave immediately."
