The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 269: The Price of the Blessing (Part 2)



It was precisely for this reason that when the Wind Roar Tribe learned of the conflict between the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom and an unknown force from the deep ocean, they immediately hatched a plan and sent envoys to the newcomers camped on the coast, aiming to ally with these outsiders against the overbearing Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom.

Although this went against ancient traditions, they couldn't afford to care so much anymore.

If the strength of the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom continued to expand, the disappearance of the Wind Roar Tribe in the dust of history would only be a matter of time.

As the envoy appointed by the Great Wind Chief, Sak Jifeng brought the chieftain's decree to the coastline where the conflict occurred.

Being one of the conservatives in the tribe, initially, he did not pay much attention to those outsiders from the sea.

After all, in the past thousand years, human ships often ran aground on the beach, but none had ever caused much of a stir.

This time didn't seem to be an exception.

However, when he truly arrived above that stretch of coastline, what came into view thoroughly overturned his stubborn beliefs.

"Is this... the power from beyond the sea?" Gazing at the scene on the beach, Sak Jifeng's pupils quaked, his scaly face filled with shock.

Just beyond the beach, a simple yet bustling camp had already taken shape on a hill, with thousands of creatures he had never seen before active at the forest's edge!

With semi-transparent membranous wings spread wide, Sak restrained his turbulent heartbeat, capturing the moist and salty sea breeze with his wings, slowly landing on a tree branch at the forest's edge, looking toward the hill that was within reach.

Countless tents crowded the center of the camp, surrounded by a mix of rock and timber walls. While not towering, these walls were more than adequate as defensive structures!

But that's not all!

On the camp's edge stood two tall wooden watchtowers, overlooking the nearby jungle alongside thick, long, glowing iron tubes.

Near the gate of the wall, he also saw a patrol of undead soldiers. They walked with firm, uniform steps, holding gleaming swords, their bodies exuding a thick aura of death, like evil spirits crawling out of the Abyss.

His intuition told him these guys would not be easy to deal with!

Sak's heart pounded uncontrollably, unable to calm down for a long time; a simple "shock" could no longer summarize all his emotions.

As one of the most elite scouts of the Wind Roar Tribe, he had experienced countless battles of all sizes, yet even so, it was the first time he had witnessed such an astonishing speed of nest-building.

If he remembered correctly, these foreigners from the sea had landed on this land less than three days ago.

To construct such a strong defensive fortification on the hills within just three days, not even the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom possessed such might!

What shocked Sak wasn't just this.

Near the camp, a swarm of black spiders, like locusts passing through, tirelessly gnawed at the nearby forest without rest!

They used sharp mandibles to cut the wood, then carried it to the nearby coast for drying, with some of it carried by skeletons into the sea, assembling into bridges extending into the ocean, and the rest transported outside the fortress walls for expanding the camp.

"These outsiders can build such a scale of a city in such a short time..."

Sak unconsciously muttered to himself, his eyes roving along the coastline contours, unsure where to focus amidst the camp's hustle and bustle.

Just as he was overwhelmed by shock, a sharp gaze had already noticed his presence, quietly approaching him like a ghost.

Unaware of the looming threat, as Sak hesitated whether to reveal his envoy identity directly or report the current situation to the Great Wind Chief first, a sudden explosive sound came from beneath him!

"Bang—!"

A milky white smoke cloud suddenly erupted, transforming into a dense net sweeping up from below!

Seeing the abruptly exploding smoke, Sak, perched on the treetop, was startled, his wings flapping violently as he tried to distance himself!

However, the speeding web was quicker, firmly catching his wings ahead of time!

Sak struggled with all his might, but it was futile; after a few flaps, he embarrassingly fell from the branch.

Just as he crashed into the brush, a few skeleton soldiers and large spiders, lurking in the grass, jumped out with clamorous shouts.

"Ha ha! Caught him!"

"Guys, let's go!"

"Woo woo woo!!!"

The glowing crystals translated their language!

Seeing the charging spiders and undead, Sak was flustered, struggling desperately and shouting loudly.

"Stop! Let me go! I am the envoy of the Wind Roar Tribe... Sak Jifeng! I, I came at the command of the Great Wind Chief to convey the goodwill of the Wind Roar Tribe, please let me meet your leader!"

The surrounding players initially didn't take the prey's pleas seriously until they heard him state his name.

Sak Jifeng?

Wow, he's even an NPC with a name and surname!

"Wind Roar Tribe? Great Wind Chief? What the heck?" A skeleton player holding a web shooter murmured, touching his jawbone.

"Who cares, I just need a flying mount! Let me turn him into a Corpse Ghost first!" A skeleton player, who had transitioned to acolyte, eyes glowing, was about to step forward eagerly, but before he could demonstrate his skills, he was swiftly stopped by his brother beside him.
