Chapter 378: Grey Mountain Tribe

Grey Mountain chewed the thing in his mouth. He tried to hold it in, but he still spat it out.

It was too disgusting.

This black vegetable bun with meat jerky filling didn’t taste good. Even if he had been eating this for winter since childhood, he could still not get used to it.

But who knew how many of his people would die if they didn’t have such things for the winter that lasted hundreds of days?

“Leader, Jinke Hunting Team is back.” A muscular middle-aged man opened the tent and said towards Grey Mountain, sitting on a giant stone chair.

Grey Mountain’s face, covered in a beard, was filled with surprise. He stood up. His muscular body was like a stone gate.

“How are their gains?”

He acknowledged, “They brought back five baskets of food.”

Grey Mountain opened his mouth slightly, and he lost all interest. He sat back down and held the chair handle to express his unhappiness.

But he knew that the strong demon monsters were also preparing for winter. They were hunting in the entire Blue Continent. Some demon monsters were about to enter their reproduction period, so they were strict in their defenses. Any Posthumous people or demon monsters that dared to enter their territory would be attacked.

All these situations added together meant that they were facing problems hunting. Coincidentally, they also had to pass the winter. So, each winter was tough for them. A small tribe like Grey Mountain would be happy if 80% of them could survive the winter.

Extreme cold and food shortage was like a death sentence for the weak Posthumous people. Some women and kids weren’t able to survive the winter.

“But…”

Grey Mountain's gaze turned, and he looked at his subordinate. He was annoyed, “When have you become so hesitant?”

“But Jinke brought back the news that they found the tracks of a bunch of Posthumous people. It looks like they are coming towards us. But they were hunting some Black Seed Deer. Moreover, Jinke saw them from a hill and didn’t come into contact with them, so he didn’t know where they were from.”

If the tribes weren’t close to each other, they would defend against each other when they bumped into one another when hunting before winter. Although they rarely killed one another during these thousand days, there were instances where they fought each other to get food before winter. Such situations couldn’t be stopped. Grey Mountain tribe would even do it themselves. Now that they saw the tribe hunting the Black Seed Deers, it was better that they were further away.

“How many of them are there?” Grey Mountain asked.

The middle-aged man didn’t understand and replied, “A hundred.”

En?

Grey Mountain was surprised, “How many?”

“100, not more than 150.”

Grey Mountain’s expression changed. Although Black Seed Deers were around level three and not too strong, their defense was high. Moreover, a small group of them would exceed 200. Grey Mountain Tribe was so small they wouldn’t want to offend them at any moment.

But this 150-strong team dared to hunt them, meaning their overall strength should be around level three. Moreover, they should have at least 30 close to level four. Only then could they challenge the Black Seed Deer pack.

For such a strong group to be in their territory was unsettling.

“Jinke mentioned that only 50 of them were attacking!”

Grey Mountain stood up right away. What? Only 50? Which large-sized tribe was here? What did they want to do?

He paced around the tent solemnly and said, “Tell the kids to be on guard. Place the grain in the tunnel. If we notice any dangers, arrange people to move the grain away.”

The middle-aged man nodded, and he realized how serious the problem was.

He wanted to instruct the others, but suddenly, another member charged in.

The small tribe didn’t have many rules, so Grey Mountain didn’t care that much. He just asked him what had happened.

“Leader, a bunch came from outside. Ah Tao is here himself!”

Grey Mountain laughed when he heard that. They had a good relationship with Ah Tao’s tribe. It was a small, weak tribe, and they would help one another. Now that he heard Ah Tao was here, with the possibility that a large tribe might attack them, their confidence to win was added. As such, Grey Mountain was delighted.

“Go, let’s meet my old brother.”

Grey Mountain’s tribe was smaller than Ah Tao’s. If so many people entered the camp, it would be too squeezy, so they met outside the mountains.

This trip took five days. Besides large amounts of resources that slowed down the journey that would have taken three days, killing demon monsters was another reason they were slow.

But fortunately, they had many gains. Especially the Black Seed Deers that they met yesterday. Their meat was tasty, and their leather was useful for creating high-defense armor. They could also be used to make blankets and build tents.

Apart from this surprise, Ye Zhongming also found many other materials. Although he couldn’t use most of them now, he still collected them. When he reached Earth, these would be sold for three digits of crystals.

“Brother Ah Tao, why are you here? Did you want to hunt here?” Grey Mountain led his men over. He saw the healthy Ah Tao, and the two of them hugged.

“I can smell your black vegetable taste from so far. I don’t want to come to a place where the leader has to eat such things.”

Grey Mountain was helpless, “Old Fellow, don’t think you are doing well. You are just like us; I don’t believe you won’t eat them this winter… Er…”

Before he finished, his subordinate dragged his clothes and signaled him to look. He stopped his words like someone had grabbed his neck.

He saw an army behind Ah Tao. The 50 in front were elite warriors that gave off an aura no weaker than level two. There were even 15 of them that were above level three!

Moreover, what he couldn’t accept was that a hundred simple carts were parked behind those 100 people; on them were mountains of food…
