Just as Goluk was boldly envisioning the future, on the outskirts of the Tiger Tribe settlement...
A Tiger Tribe warrior was Speed towards the camp.
Suddenly, a scarlet energy chain, like a snake, emerged from the dense foliage above his head, instantly wrapping around his neck and pulling him up.
Ten seconds later, the tiger-man warrior's body, with its neck broken, fell from the tree.
Half an hour later, ' Bolenhal ' led all the Bear Tribe's fighting force through the forest where the tiger-men warriors' bodies were buried and silently arrived at the outskirts of the Tiger Tribe's camp.
He surveyed the Tiger Tribe's defensive positions, then immediately raised his Clan-Protecting Precious Saber and roared, "Brothers of the Bear Tribe, follow me and charge in! Let those Tiger Tribe bastards pay for their crimes in blood!"
The Bear Tribe warriors immediately brandished their weapons, shouting "Blood for blood!" and followed their chieftain's imposing figure as they charged into the Tiger Tribe's territory.
' Bolenhal ' leaped directly onto the wooden city wall erected by the Tiger Tribe.
The gleaming blades flashed, and several Tiger Tribe warriors on the city wall were sliced in two without even uttering a scream.
Then he gripped the knife with both hands and forcefully plunged it into the city wall.
"Break!"
With this loud shout, cracks instantly appeared in the wooden city wall, which was about ten meters long.
' Bolenhal ' drew his sword and leaped off the city wall.
'Snap! Snap!'
The cracks in the city wall spread rapidly, and it collapsed completely in an instant.
The remaining Bear Tribe warriors filed in through the breach.
Only then did an incredibly shrill scream emanate from within the camp.
"Ah! The Bear Tribe are attacking! The Bearmen..."
Elder Raul of the Bear Tribe smashed the head of the Tiger Tribe warrior who had issued the warning with a heavy blow, then spat and cursed, "Bah! Playing dead with me! No wonder you're a member of that old silver coin Goluk's clan!"
He looked up and saw that Chief Bolenhal had already charged forward several hundred meters.
Elder Raul immediately raised his stone club and shouted, "Warriors of the Bear Tribe, follow me and support our Chieftain!"
The Bear Tribe warriors scattered around him immediately gathered around him and headed towards ' Bolenhal '.
At this moment, Goluk, the Tiger Tribe chieftain who was on the Altar, had already heard the shouts of battle.
His tiger-like eyes widened, his face contorted with rage. "How dare you attack my Tiger Tribe!"
He immediately picked up his long stick and Speed toward the direction from which the sound came.
He hadn't run far when he ran into ' Bolenhal,' who was chasing after the Tiger Tribe warriors with his sword.
The two clan leaders glared at each other the moment they met.
Goluk, brandishing his club, angrily pointed it at Bolenhal: " Bolenhal! How dare you personally Carnage ordinary warriors of my Tiger Tribe?!"
' Bolenhal ' swung his blade, severing the head of the howling Tiger Tribe warrior at his feet, and grinned maliciously, saying, "Blood for blood! Goluk, repent to His Majesty Hortis for your shameful betrayal!"
Having said that, he stomped his foot hard, raised his sword high with both hands, and delivered a fierce leaping slash towards Goluk.
Goluk's expression changed, and he hurriedly raised his stick horizontally.
'clang!'
A deafening clang of weapons rang out, and with a muffled thud, Goluk's legs sank into the ground.
' Bolenhal ' landed on his feet, his face turning deathly pale instantly.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
He covered his mouth and coughed violently.
"Damn it... cough cough, why did my injuries have to flare up now?!"
' Bolenhal ' grabbed the Clan-Protecting Precious Saber and turned to flee towards the edge of the Tiger Tribe's territory.
Goluk pulled his legs out, stared at the pool of blood that ' Bolenhal ' had just vomited on the ground, and a wanton smile spread across his face.
"You old bastard! You dare to attack my Tiger Tribe while so badly injured!"
"Hehehe, then I'll personally escort you to see His Majesty Hortis!!!"
He held the stick in reverse and immediately chased after Bolenhal in the direction he had fled.
The outer rocky beach of the Tiger Tribe.
' Bolenhal ' clutched his chest as he fled here, nearly falling to the ground as he stumbled.
He immediately stopped, leaning on his knife, and clutched his chest, gasping for breath.
"Huff... huff... damn it!"
At this moment, Goluk, who had just arrived, burst into arrogant laughter. "Hahaha~ Bolenhal, running away? Why don't you keep running?!"
"It seems this rocky beach is the burial ground you've chosen for yourself!"
' Bolenhal ' drew his knife and quickly turned around, looking warily at Goluk not far away.
" Goluk, how dare you chase after me alone? Aren't you afraid this is a trap I set for you?"
"Hmph~" Goluk chuckled and said, "Strategy? With your current form? I could win even if I gave you a handicap!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a soft shout rang out from above him.
"Formation, activate!"
In an instant, streaks of crimson Mana surged from the ground beneath the rocky beach, weaving together in mid-air to form an inverted semi-circular cage.
Goluk's expression froze. He looked up at the birdcage-like cage in the sky, his face turning incredibly grim. "Damn it, it really is a trap!"
' Bolenhal ' lowered his hand from his chest, and his previously hunched body stood up straight.
" Goluk, you're dead this time, I told you!!!"
He leaped into the air, gripped the sword with both hands, and slashed again.
"Damn it, I'm not afraid of you!"
Having said that, Goluk gritted his teeth, leaped into the air, and swung his long staff at Bolenhal with the same ferocious force.
'boom!'
The knife and the staff clashed in mid-air and exploded instantly.
Two figures crashed back to the ground at an even faster speed, like shooting stars.
After landing, Goluk took a dozen steps back to dissipate his remaining strength.
He grinned maliciously and shouted, " Bolenhal, didn't you eat enough today? Why are you so weak?"
' Bolenhal ' knelt down and plunged the knife into the ground, releasing all his remaining strength into the earth.
He slowly rose, letting out a soft sigh, "Sigh, what a brainless idiot, hasn't he realized it yet?"
Then, a melodious female voice emanated from that muscular body. "Sister, this is so boring~ I don't want to play anymore~"
Goluk stared in astonishment, his eyes widening.
He stared incredulously at the distant ' Bolenhal,' his voice trembling as he said, 'You... you're not Bolenhal, who are you?!'
Twisted energy fluctuations rippled around ' Bolenhal ', and its once-massive body rapidly shrank, reverting to Yelena's original form.
"I thought you were a seasoned veteran, but it turns out you're not much smarter than the other two."
Goluk's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart sank. "What did you do to Imogen and Bolenhal?!"
Yelena put one hand on her hip, raised her chin smugly, and said, "You guessed it, didn't you?"
Goluk's expression immediately turned cold.
His eyes flickered as he quickly considered his escape route.
