Dual Sword God - Chapter 83: Matuk's Tribe, A Dangerous Mission!

The Gloomy Forest was as a bleak as ever, as the constant downpour carried with it a heaviness that weighted down on the souls of many of the forest's inhabitants. Still, while many would be lost into this dull state of mood, there were a few inhabitants who displayed unusually excited and ferocious traits, as could be seen by the inhabitants of a tribe gathered before us...

It was a vast and loosely fortified tribal ground, with fences made of oak-like wood that enclosed an area spanning no more than 1000 meters. This wooden fence was crudely connected and plunged deeply into the ground; it was connected to a central entryway that had no obstacles with a tower positioned its center elevated a few meters from the ground.

A bundle of sharpened versions of these oak-like woods was bounded together tightly with sturdy looking vines as their pointed tips aimed forwards. They were placed around this wooden enclosure as well as a few meters away from the entryway of the tribe.

Within this tribal ground, was a group of crude buildings made of wood, grass, and stones. A few more ancient and unusually advance buildings could be seen at random locations inside of the tribe, but these buildings only remained as a remnant of their former prestige.

Tum! Tum! Tum-Tum-Tu-Tum! ~

In a wild and archaic style of beat, a group of dark skinny creatures gathered together in the form of a ceremony. They were wearing crudely crafted armor made from the dead wood and grasses collected from the surrounding environment while dancing in a tribe-like manner.

As if they were in-tuned with the beat both of their legs would tap the floor four times before they pointed their claw-like palms towards a large central pillar at the direct center of this tribe.

Upon stretching their palms outwards, they would shout in unison saying, "Ou!" Their voices resounded throughout the area ignoring the by rain. If one looked carefully, they would see a strand of dark energy leave these inhabitants claw-like palms and shoot towards the central pillar.

This pillar was strange, as it was coated in a white tone with its structure made from an unknown source. An arrangement of complex runic patterns was laid out across its plain white surface each of which would be usually dull was now glowing in a myriad of tints.

As the strands of dark energies entered the pillar, the glowing runes on its surface only grew brighter and brighter with each passing moment. Soon, the energies gathered within the pillar reached a point of saturation causing it to send ripples of energies in throughout the sky.

Phew! Quickly, a beam of light shot towards the sky soon after returning to the pillar which then formed a new runic design on its surface. If one observed the pillar once again, they would see that approximately 97% of the pillar was covered with these marking.

Suddenly, the beating of the drums had come to abrupt end. The dancing creatures became silent as a taller and a well-armored elderly looking creature surrounded by a few others walked towards the pillar of the ritual.

The elderly creature then inspected the pillar for a moment before shifting its gaze towards the congregated tribesmen and spoke, "Fellow Tribesmen! In roughly three days the Ascension Pillar will be ready, and our Chieftain will finally be able to ascend to new heights become a High Tier Leader under the wing of our great Zone Commander! If this happens, we will be able to join the direct army and go to battle against the humans on the frontlines earning us points to buy our freedoms!"

"Ouuu! For the glory of the Chieftain!" The group of creatures shouted in unison as they stomped the ground causing the area to shake.

The elderly creature seeing their responses was pleased as it waved its hand causing the creatures to return to silence once again, it then continued to speak, "Good! Therefore, we must do everything within our power to complete the ritual. The hunting squad will patrol the outer regions of the tribe and prevent any other tribes and camps to find out our details, while tomorrow we will commence with the ritual once more at dawn!"

As it finished its statement, waved its hand and shouted, "All Ghoulfiends are dismissed!"

Hearing his words, each of the Ghoulfiends quickly left the ritual area and returned to their posts. A few more powerful looking Ghoulfiends with red markings over their bodies remained at guard around the pillar along with the elderly looking Ghoulfiend who looked at them and spoke, "You elites must remain vigilant at all times, I want the Ascension Pillar to be protected from any forms of danger!"

As the elderly Ghoulfiend said this, he then walked away towards the central hut-like building of the tribe. The surrounding powerful looking Ghoulfiends then promptly responded with a firm tone, "Yes Sir!"

Soon, the atmosphere within the tribe returned to one of solemnness as former liveliness had all but disappeared. Within one of the ancient buildings that did not stand out in any way, was a peculiar Ghoulfiend. It had all the necessary features of features of Ghoulfiends with only its hair carrying a shade of red, but this hair was mostly covered by a rusty helmet that hid its face from the world.

As he it noticed movements of the elderly Ghoulfiend and strong looking Ghoulfiends before its eyes, the strange Ghoulfiend couldn't help but think to itself, "Hmm, so that pillar is the command's main objective. I would have to find a way to either destroy or disrupt that pillars activities to successfully sabotage this tribe. However, those are Elite Class Ghoulfiends along with that Elder Ghoulfiend. While they are worth a lot of points respectively, I will not be able to handle them or easily accomplish this mission with them being on guard."

Feng Yu looked at the extremely vigilant Elite Ghoulfiends and strictness of Matuk's Tribal members with a frown on his face as he pondered. Soon though, there was a disturbance.

"Hey! You over there! What are you doing? Get over here immediately! It is time to patrol the regions outside of the camp!" A powerful voice said.

Hearing this command, Feng Yu quickly reacted by moving towards the group with his head held down. The Elite Ghoulfiend who was the leader of the hunting squad frowned as he saw this, he shouted towards Feng Yu, "What! Is this how you reply to higher command? What is your name brat?!"

Feng Yu hearing this smirked underneath his helmet as he replied with gestures signifying that he couldn't speak. He waved his hand making hand signs soon after pointing towards his throat that had a large slit mark scar on its surface.

The Elite Ghoulfiend seeing this frowned as he said with disgust, "Damn! Why did my group had to have another piece of injured trash?! Sigh..."

The companion Ghoulfiends looked towards Feng Yu with mock in their eyes as they jeered.

"Keke! What's wrong with you? Did Catlin steal your throat?"

"Kekeke! That's most likely the case as I can't even feel his fiend auras he's probably more suitable of being cannon fodder!"

The Elite Ghoulfiend soon quickly recovered from his foul mood and no longer gave any attention to the members of the group. As if they weren't worth his sight, he continued to march towards outskirts of the tribe and commanded, "Let's not waste any more precious time! Hunting squad move out!"

The jeering Ghoulfiends upon hearing his voice quickly reacted by marching forwards and responding in unison, "Yes Squad Leader!"

Feng Yu who saw this scene smiled with a sharp light at the depths of his now oddly red-like eyes. He followed the group at a steady pace soon after vanishing with its members in the depths of forests.

Boom! There was a loud explosion that shook everything within the range of 100 miles, a peerlessly beautiful figure with long white hair was blown across the sky turning into a beam of light that fell into distant dense forests bushes. Her figure continued to roll stacking up wounds all over her body. Soon, she crashed into a rocky wall leaving a deep impression within it.

Pat. Pat. Pat.

A stream of blood flowed down her forehead along with her sweat that fell to the verdant ground. She struggled to keep her eyes that were becoming dull and lifeless open as she looked towards the lights from the explosion in the distant horizon.

Her eyes grew misty as a stream tears fell from the corner of her eyes, soon though, her eyes grow sharp as thick killing intent spread out from her entire being. She spoke in a cold tone, "If it wasn't because my body is facing repercussions, they have never died to likes of that b-tch! I will certainly... certainly... kill you!"

As she finished her statement, she willed for a strange wristband to appear from her storage ring that quickly wrapped its self across her slender wrist. Soon, an odd kind of energy shrouded her form. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Swoosh! The instant her figure became shrouded by the energy from the wristband, a powerful spiritual sense soon after scanned the area.

The scan was in-depth as if the person behind this spiritual sense was determined to leave no stones unturned, however, after a good while it receded to its source.

A seductive but deep voice soon resounded throughout the area, "Tsk! How could I lose track of such a rare humanity! Hmph! I will find you sooner or later little girl..."

Her voice vanished, as a dark wind slowly began to blow over the depths of the Gloomy Forest...
