Chen Mo and his team had indeed encountered armed purchasing teams from the American Fur Company many times, and it wasn't just a simple encounter; they had also wiped out all of those armed purchasing teams!

A month ago, legends began circulating among the Indian tribes in the Missouri jungle about two Humanoid Beasts that were massacring the armed acquisition team of the American Fur Company. Many people thought it was the work of ferocious Beast such as grizzly bears, while others believed it was the work of ancestral spirits who sent the beasts to punish the American Fur Company people who oppressed and exploited them.

These were originally just rumors and had not been confirmed until half a month ago, when news spread from a tribe that they had encountered two Humanoid Beasts. They were actually two teenagers who could grow sharp claws and bone spikes out of thin air. They were incredibly powerful and could not be defeated by ordinary people. Their identity was that of a fur trader's follower.

When Chief Geronimo heard the news, he immediately thought of Chen Mo and his group. Since the American Fur Company monopolized the fur trade in the Missouri region, it had become extremely rare for foreign fur merchants to enter this forest. Chen Mo was the only one who could be traveling with two children.

Now that he had actually witnessed the formidable fighting power of Vicot and James, as well as the irresistible strength displayed by Chen Mo, Chief Geronimo realized that the rumors were true, and that they had even somewhat underestimated the strength of the two and overlooked the power of Chen Mo.

As the master of two powerful and ferocious beasts, Chen Mo, a man exuding a mysterious aura, is likely much stronger than the two of them. The immense strength he displayed when he grabbed their arms just now should be far superior to those two little guys who were frantically killing. No one knows just how terrifying his true strength is.

Under Chief Geronimo's complex gaze, Victor and James quickly finished their fight, covered in horrific wounds and blood, and walked expressionlessly to Chen Mo's side.

Looking at Victor and James, who exuded a strong aura of bloodshed, not only Chief Geronimo had a complicated expression, but all the Lakota tribe warriors present and the tribesmen behind them were also excitedly watching the two.

The warriors of the Lakota tribe can be considered the strongest and bravest among the many Indian tribes in the Missouri jungle. They dare to fight and kill giant bears head-on, instead of fleeing like most Indian tribes.

However, although they were fearless, it did not mean they were willing to die. These powerful warriors knew very well that if Victor and James had not appeared, and a battle had broken out between them and the powerful armed force sent by the American Fur Company, their chances of winning, despite their superior numbers, would have been extremely slim. They had already experienced the power of Musket; their crude and primitive weapons were simply no match for the immense power of Musket.

Moreover, even if they were to miraculously win the final victory, their tribe would undoubtedly suffer heavy casualties.

Now that the American Fur Company's armed men have all been wiped out by Victor and James, completely eliminating their danger, it can be said that they have saved their entire tribe, for which they are deeply grateful.

Native Americans worship the strong, so they were not afraid of the two men's great strength and crazy killing. Instead, they were full of respect and worship for the two incredibly powerful men!

The unusual claws and bone spikes on their hands did not frighten the crowd; instead, they attracted curious glances from many people. Some, including Chief Geronimo, even revealed a strange expression on their faces, their eyes filled with a hint of fervor as they looked at Victor and James.

Indian tribes primarily worshipped ancestral spirits and nature deities. The worship of animal spirits gradually gave rise to totem worship. Although the beliefs of different tribes in the Missouri Forest varied, they mostly worshipped various powerful animal totems.

The Lakota tribe's totem is a ferocious beast with long, sharp claws, and they believe that Victor and James were sent by their guardian totem to rescue them.

After the battle, Chief Geronimo ordered the tribe's warriors to clean up the battlefield, while Chen Mo and his two companions were treated as honored guests and received a warm welcome from the entire Lakota tribe.

While the Native American warriors and tribesmen were singing and dancing around the campfire, Chief Geronimo approached Chen Mo with a heavy and worried expression and expressed his concerns.

Although the armed men who came this time were all killed by Victor and James, temporarily resolving the crisis of the Lakota tribe's annihilation, the matter was not over, and the American Fur Company's retaliation would not end there.

If this armed group doesn't return for too long, they must guess that something must have happened. The entire team was wiped out in the Lakota tribe. At that time, the American Fur Company will certainly not let it go and will continue to send new and more powerful armed forces to retaliate. At that time, they will only have one way out: death!

After listening to Chief Geronimo's story, Chen Mo did not rush to speak. Instead, he took a deep look at Chief Geronimo, whose face was full of anticipation, and after a while, he slowly spoke under his apprehensive gaze.

"You want me to protect the Lakota tribe?"

Under Chen Mo's extraordinary perception, Chief Geronimo's thoughts could not be hidden from Chen Mo at all. Based on his body reactions, eyes, and expressions while speaking, coupled with the current situation, Chen Mo easily analyzed Chief Geronimo's true purpose from his words.

Seeing that Chen Mo had seen through his thoughts, Chief Geronimo stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point.

"That's right, the warriors of our Lakota tribe will not yield to the enemy, but I don't want the tribe to be destroyed like this either. Now, only you can help us and save the Lakota tribe!"

Chief Geronimo had already decided that Victor and James were saviors sent by the tribe's totem, which was why they possessed powerful claws like the totem Beast. Now that the Lakota tribe was in Extremis, he placed his hopes on Chen Mo and the other two.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo glanced at the Lakota tribe members who were celebrating wildly. They only knew that the powerful enemy had been defeated and they had escaped their fate of annihilation. They were all celebrating with ease and joy. Apart from Chief Geronimo, no one knew that an even greater crisis was about to befall them.

Turning back to Chief Geronimo, whose face was full of sincerity, Chen Mo nodded gently.
