Chapter 640, A Lucky Strike
Chapter 640, A Lucky Strike
Translator: Silavin
The long-awaited sunlight spread across the earth, and the people of the Green Vine Tribe began to emerge and move about.
During the snow season, all the Tribe members had stayed inside the wooden houses, and after such a long time, they were thoroughly bored.
The Tribe had only just finished resisting the eternal night, and those people could not wait to come out.
During the eternal night, they had all been very frightened. After all, this time, they were met with unprecedented Ferocious Beasts.
To cope with these Ferocious Beasts, the Tribe did not know how many Warriors had died.
However, fortunately, the Ferocious Beasts that came to their Tribe this year were not numerous, more than half fewer than in previous years.
Although this was the case, those Ferocious Beasts were extremely fierce, and they were exceptionally strong. Therefore, the time they spent resisting the Ferocious Beasts was also relatively long, and during this period, many Warriors lost their lives.
“How wonderful.” Ah Liv also emerged from her wooden house, stretching her waist as she felt this long-awaited sunlight.
During the snow season, she had already slept for many days, staying in the Tribe every day with nothing to do.
During the eternal night, she had also resisted quite a few Ferocious Beasts, although she was not particularly formidable as a Warrior Trainee.
But when the Tribe encountered danger, she also needed to step forward. She had been injured because of this.
She had been caught on the arm by a Ferocious Beast. A very deep burn mark appeared on her arm.
Precisely because of this, the girl’s arm also bore a scar, and although it had already been healed by the Shaman using a Shaman Technique, there was no way to eliminate that scar.
“But this scar is really too ugly.” Ah Liv looked at her left arm with great disgust.
A large Ferocious Beast claw print was clearly visible on her arm. The dark brown scar was unsightly.
“It’s no longer the snow season so there’s no way I can wear thick Animal Hide to cover it up. Exposing it like this is really too unsightly.” Ah Liv muttered to herself with a worried expression.
There was not a single girl who did not want to be beautiful, especially when such a large scar appeared on her arm with no way to reverse it.
Therefore, she had been unable to sleep for several days, sighing every time she saw this scar.
She had asked her Father and Grandfather several times, wanting to see if this ugly scar could disappear, but the answers she received were all negative.
However, after thinking carefully for many days, the girl had come to terms with it. As a Warrior, having some scars on one’s body was normal. So, she had come out happily to feel the big Sun, although from time to time she would still see that ugly scar.
“Good morning Ah Liv, hasn’t the scar on your body disappeared yet?” Asked a person from the Green Vine Tribe.
“Not yet.” Ah Liv could not help but roll her eyes. She had not wanted to say anything about it, so why was she being reminded of it again?
“Well then, I’ll go and busy myself with some things first.” That person waved their hand and left.
Ah Liv sighed and surveyed her surroundings, muttering to herself. “I’ll go find Grandfather then. The eternal night has already passed, it’s time to prepare to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe.”
During the snow season, she had been constantly thinking about wanting to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe.
No, she should have started missing it the second day after leaving the Flame Dragon Tribe. She has been looking forward to the snow season passing.
Having finally endured until the snow season passed, she wanted to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe to eat this very instant.
*Step step step…*
The girl spent more than ten minutes reaching the Shaman’s wooden house, and after receiving permission, she ran inside.
“Shaman, can we have the Warriors prepare to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe?” Ah Liv hurriedly asked.
“You’re still so impatient. Don’t you understand the situation caused by the eternal night?” Shaman Lu Zheng said.
“I know.” Ah Liv had not expected to be scolded when she came here.
“So many Warriors have died, and the Tribe has lost so many people. Shouldn’t we properly rest and reorganise first!?” Shaman Lu Zheng’s anger flared up.
Moreover, the person seeking out another Tribe was his own Granddaughter. That made him even more livid. As his own Granddaughter, why was she not showing more consideration for the Tribe? Now that the Tribe was in this condition, she was still thinking about going to the Flame Dragon Tribe?
He was disappointed.
“Grandfather, it is precisely because our Tribe is in this state now, we need to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe even more.” Ah Liv immediately said.
The girl did not understand why she was being scolded for this, so she felt rather unconvinced as she argued back.
“I already said to call me Shaman, although it’s true that I’m your Grandfather.” Shaman Lu Zheng stroked his beard and continued asking. “Why should we go to the Flame Dragon Tribe when we’re in this condition?”
He wanted to hear what his Granddaughter would say. Although it was true that she tended to be impatient, she normally acted with clarity.
After all, she was his own Granddaughter, so she would inherit some things from him. Previously there had been quite a few good ideas that the girl had come up with.
“The Flame Dragon Tribe has very many amazing goods, and their food is also very good. Since our Tribe is in this condition, we should go and trade for some delicious food to bring back, shouldn’t we?”
Ah Liv recalled the Tribe’s situation and continued. “Moreover, Grandfather isn’t known for excelling in healing. Perhaps the Flame Dragon Tribe has a Shaman Bone Tablets that can be traded for?”
This was what she had instantly thought of, after all every Tribe’s Shaman was different, so naturally the Shaman Techniques they excelled in were also different.
Some excelled in attacks, some excelled in support, and some excelled in healing. Every Shaman excelled in different Shaman Techniques. Although her own Grandfather did not excel in healing, that did not mean the Flame Dragon Tribe’s Shaman did not excel in it.
Hearing this, Shaman Lu Zheng began to think seriously, feeling that his Granddaughter’s words made sense.
He nodded with satisfaction, his tone becoming somewhat more serene as he said. “It seems like you are still thinking about the Tribe.”
“Grandfather, you were really too fierce just now. I thought I had done something wrong.” Ah Liv pretended to be angry.
Actually, she truly had just been thinking about wanting to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe. She had just thought of a reasonable excuse just now.
“Let the Tribe rest and reorganise for a few more days. After being made into this state by those Ferocious Beasts, it won’t recover without several days.”
Shaman Lu Zheng continued stroking his beard and said. “Also, we haven’t conducted our Totem Awakening Ceremony yet.”
Every Tribe’s Totem Awakening Ceremony timing was different. Some early, some late. Early ones might be held the day after the eternal night. The later ones might be held during spring, when everywhere was full of growing grass and flying birds.
“That’s right, we haven’t held the Totem Awakening Ceremony yet.” Ah Liv’s heart began to race in anticipation of becoming a Totem Warrior.
“Have your Father go and prepare. When the Tribe has finished resting and reorganising, we’ll hold the Totem Awakening Ceremony.” Shaman Lu Zheng instructed.
“Understood.” Ah Liv turned and left the wooden house.
