Within the Giant Bear Tribe, looking around, one could not see a single person outside the Tribe, and heavy snow was continuously falling from the sky. Moreover, the ground within the Giant Bear Tribe was covered entirely with thick accumulated snow. When people stepped on it, they would sink directly up to their knees or higher. Furthermore, heavy snow was still continuously falling from the sky, so the thickness of the accumulated snow would continue to increase.
Kai and the others had already returned to the Giant Bear Tribe after completing the trade, handing over all the items to the Shaman.
Although they desperately wanted to keep so of the items, unfortunately they had no way to keep any of them for the ti being.
"If only we could keep so of these items, even just one would be good…" Kai muttered to himself in his wooden house.
When he had handed over these items earlier, his heart was filled with reluctances, but unfortunately he was rely a Warrior Trainee and did not even have the qualification to ask for one.
"I must work even harder. I must definitely keep so of those good items." Kai suddenly said.
This desire strove him to further wish he could quickly breakthrough to beco a Totem Warrior.
Only by becoming a Totem Warrior and accumulating more achievents, or going to trade items with the Fla Dragon Tribe again, would he have more confidence to keep so of the items.
"Otherwise, every ti we make such arduous round trips, we end up not keeping a single thing…" Kai said indignantly.
He had once thought about secretly hiding a piece of ceramic, but there were too many people at the ti. If one went missing, it would definitely get discovered, and those people certainly wanted them too. If they were divided up, there would be very few left when returning to the Tribe.
He could not possibly say it broke on the road. If he was later discovered to have one, this matter would be impossible to explain.
"Next ti I go, I’ll discuss with the Fla Dragon Tribe whether they could give us one extra piece. If they could give us one extra, I could keep it." Kai began calculating in his mind.
He felt that if the Fla Dragon Tribe was willing to give one extra piece of ceramic, and he secretly hid it and was discovered, the Shaman could not say anything.
Because he could directly say this ceramic was given by the Fla Dragon Tribe specifically because they saw him make so many arduous round trips and was given in gratitude.
In any case, the Shaman could not possibly actually go to the Fla Dragon Tribe to ask, and even if they asked others, the others would help him speak up, because the next ti this kind of benefit would fall on them, it would be the next person’s turn to receive it.
"Argh, what am I thinking? This thing hasn’t even happened once, and I’m already holding such expectations." Kai gently knocked his own forehead.
"But I guess it’s not impossible either. I’ll ntion it to them then. I hear the Chieftain of the Fla Dragon Tribe is soone who’s easy to negotiate with. Perhaps he is willing?" Kai moved his red eyes.
His calculations all seed perfect—too perfect. The smile on his face was almost impossible to suppress.
"No, no, no." Kai hurriedly shook his head and continued muttering to himself: "The Chieftain of the Fla Dragon Tribe looks so fierce and intimidating, not like soone who’s easy to talk to."
He had almost forgotten about the Chieftain of the Fla Dragon Tribe. That person had a face as serious as if a Devil lived on it, making him feel sowhat fearful even thinking about facing him again.
"Then it seems like there’s no hope. Their Chieftain definitely won’t give an extra piece, even if we bring more items to exchange…" Kai completely gave up.
He collapsed onto a pile of dried grass, looking up at the roof of the wooden house. The dried grass pile was also covered with several layers of Animal Hide.
Because he was the Chieftain’s Son, his treatnt in the Tribe was relatively good, and he was allocated more Animal Hide and dried grass compared to the others.
His dried grass was very thick. Lying on it, he would not sink completely down to touch the ground, not to ntion it was covered with many layers of Animal Hide, making sleeping quite comfortable.
Others were not so fortunate. They were allocated very little dried grass and only one piece of Animal Hide. However, they had no way to use these Animal Hides to spread on the dried grass.
Because if they spread it on the dried grass, they would have nothing to cover themselves with, and they could be frozen to death. Even if sleeping directly on the dried grass was uncomfortable, it was still better to use the Animal Hide to cover themselves.
*Rumble.*
Suddenly, a trendous sound ca from the Giant Bear Tribe. This sound was extrely loud, and Kai, sleeping in the wooden house, could feel the vibrations.
He could even feel all the accumulated snow on his roof shake and fall off due to these vibrations.
"What happened?" Kai imdiately got up from the dried grass pile, his expression serious as he surveyed the surroundings.
His intuition told him this seed to be quite a serious matter. The Tribe must have encountered so danger.
[I must go and check it out.] Kai imdiately opened the door and went out.
He was already wearing Animal Hide clothing, because it would be extrely cold even inside the wooden house, so the Animal Hide still needed to be worn, even when sleeping.
After Kai walked out of the wooden house, he trudged with difficulty through the accumulated snow towards the outer region of the Tribe.
The sound had occurred in the outer region of the Tribe, while he lived in the very centre of the Tribe. But, it took him a full hour to reach the middle region of the Tribe. Normally it would only take less than half an hour, but now because of the accumulated snow, travel was extrely difficult.
"What happened? Why was there such a loud sound?" Kai called out loudly before even arriving, because he saw familiar figures.
"I don’t know either. I also ran out after hearing that sound." Luo’s was also very confused.
"I don’t know either. Seems like Ferocious Beasts have invaded." Li frowned. She was the first to arrive.
"Such a loud sound must have been made by Ferocious Beasts. But how could they climb up here?" Lan looked completely puzzled.
The Giant Bear Tribe’s terrain was very high up, Ferocious Beasts had no way to climb up, unless they had wings.
"It’s not that all Ferocious Beasts can’t co up. Did you all bring your weapons?" Kai asked seriously, already gripping his stone knife tightly in his hand.
"We brought them long ago. How could we possibly run out empty-handed? You should know we are Warriors Trainees. Even if we’re not Totem Warriors, we would still be able to do this much." Although Lan was usually sharp-tongued, she would be serious at tis like this.
"But isn’t there still a long ti before the snow season ends? Why would Ferocious Beasts co at this ti?" Luo asked in confusion.
Every ti Ferocious Beasts ca, it was during the eternal night. They never ca during the snow season, so this loud sound was extrely suspicious.
"I don’t know. Let’s go out further and check. That sound is still so distance away from us." Kai said, mustering his courage.
What he was thinking in his heart now was that if he could distinguish himself in this incident, perhaps it would be fine for him to request a piece of ceramic.
