Chapter 396
byChapter 396: The Surrender of the Kylin Tribe
Swish, swish, swish…
Under Chief Nika’s relentless sudden attacks, Chief Kylin was unable to defend himself.
Soon, he was left battered and bruised, completely devoid of any ability to resist.
Looking at the other six strong beings of the Kylin Tribe, they too were knocked to the ground by the combination of top geniuses and powerful beings.
“Kylin Tribe members, listen! Your chief Kylin and the seven strong ones are now captive of our Nika Tribe!”
Chief Nika’s voice soared high, echoing over dozens of kilometers: “Everyone surrender now. Bow down to the ground! As the chief of the Nika Tribe, I swear to spare your lives and allow you the freedom to choose whether to leave or join us. Those who resist will be executed without mercy!”
Crash…
The soldiers of the entire Kylin Tribe instantly fell into chaos.
Especially those in the rear ranks, who looked utterly bewildered.
Just a little while ago, the chief and the strong ones were giving commands to defend using long-range attacks.
How did it come to be that they were captured so suddenly?
After a moment of hesitation, the frontline soldiers decisively chose to bow down to the ground.
They had personally witnessed the chief and six strong ones being captured, along with the previously captured Muni.
Without a single strong being left in their army, how could they resist?
Chief Nika soared into the sky with the captured Chief Kylin.
The six strong members of the Nika Tribe followed closely, each carrying one of the captured Kylin Tribe strong ones.
Like showcasing trophies, they flew back and forth over the Kylin Tribe army, parading the dejected seven high-ranking leaders and continuously repeating their calls for surrender.
Clatter…
Countless soldiers, without any doubt, lay down on the ground.
Fifteen million soldiers of the Kylin Tribe, like a chain reaction, dropped down in groups, creating a spectacular scene.
In the expeditionary army, Guli gave the order.
A massive force of over three million powerful beings from the Black Tiger Tribe set off toward the Kylin Tribe to receive and control these surrendered soldiers.
Chief Nika and the strong ones, along with the top geniuses, returned with the seven captives to the vanguard.
The vanguard quickly retreated back to the main army.
This battle appeared evenly matched, with nearly equal numbers on both sides.
Yet the outcome was a complete defeat for one side.
In fact, the expeditionary army was able to completely crush the Kylin Tribe merely with a vanguard formed of over a million soldiers.
The aftermath was handed to two strong beings from the Nika Tribe and three million soldiers of the Black Tiger Tribe.
With the situation stabilizing, even if there were any resistors or sudden attackers among the Kylin Tribe soldiers, having two strong ones in command was enough to suppress them, causing at most a small uproar.
The attention of the high-ranking leaders of the expeditionary army quickly shifted towards the Bone Spike Tribe’s vanguard.
The chief and strong beings of the Bone Spike Tribe were almost all hidden within the ranks of the vanguard.
Defeating or controlling this vanguard was almost equivalent to defeating and controlling the entire Bone Spike Tribe.
…
“What? The Kylin Tribe army has surrendered?”
In the center of the vanguard of the Bone Spike Tribe, Bone Spike Chief suppressed his own aura along with several powerful beings. After hearing the latest report from the scout, they were all dumbfounded.
“How is this possible? How much time has passed?”
“Right! At this stage, the Kylin Tribe army should have just begun battling the Nika Tribe army. How could they surrender so soon?”
The strong beings could hardly believe the result.
“What on earth happened? What makes you think the Kylin Tribe army has surrendered?”
Bone Spike Chief angrily questioned the scout.
“The Kylin Tribe army was facing off against the vanguard of the Nika Tribe. But suddenly, we heard Chief Nika directly announce among the Kylin Tribe army that he had captured their chief and strong beings.”
The scout hurriedly explained: “After that, the Kylin Tribe army began to surrender according to Chief Nika’s orders.”
Bone Spike Chief and the strong beings were left dumbfounded.
They understood the reason for the Kylin Tribe’s rapid surrender.
Capture the leader first!
“Just as we suspected, behind the Nika Tribe army must be the royal pirate crew of the Swift Tribe.”
“Noble of the Swift Tribe must have clarified the locations of the Kylin Tribe chief and strong beings, then, with the powerful beings from the Swift Tribe and Nika Tribe, they launched a sudden attack, successfully defeating and capturing the Kylin Tribe chief and strong beings in one swift blow.”
“Thus, forcing the entire Kylin Tribe army to surrender!”
“Damned Chief Nika actually allied with our greatest enemy, the Swift Tribe!”
“What should we do?”
Many strong beings from the Bone Spike Tribe began to panic.
Such methods of capturing the leader first were uncommon for the Black Tiger Tribe, as they were generally a slower race compared to the surrounding tribes.
Being slow, unless their strength realm far exceeded their opponent’s, it was hard for them to penetrate enemy lines and capture enemy commanders by themselves.
Because of this, the Black Tiger Tribe, although stronger overall than the Swift Tribe, had been treated as a resource depot, raided from time to time by the Swift Tribe.
Now, however, the Nika Tribe could use the speed advantage of the royal pirate crew of the Swift Tribe to implement this capture-the-leader-first tactic, making it hard for the strong beings of the Bone Spike Tribe not to panic.
This meant that while they commanded their troops, there was suddenly a chance that strong beings from the Swift Tribe could descend from the sky with Nika Tribe warriors and together defeat them.
“What are you panicking about? The Noble of the Swift Tribe and their strong beings attacking from a sudden speed was something we expected, wasn’t it?”
Bone Spike Chief couldn’t help but scold them.
“Exactly, this situation was actually within our expectations.”
“The most terrifying aspect of the Swift Tribe is their incredible speed. As long as we stick together, their speed advantage cannot be utilized.”
“More importantly, with the chief present, we can even set an ambush to draw the royal pirate crew of the Swift Tribe into an unexpected assault, heavily wounding the enemy in one strike.”
“If successful, neither the strong beings from the Swift Tribe nor Nika Tribe would escape. Even the Noble of the Swift Tribe might be left behind.”
“Given that the Kylin Tribe army was defeated so easily, it’s actually a good thing for us. Because this will make the Nika Tribe even more determined to use this assault tactic against us.”
“So we just need to implement our plan and lure the royal pirate crew of the Swift Tribe and Nika Tribe warriors to come and attack!”
Soon, the strong beings of the Bone Spike Tribe reacted.
The earlier panic disappeared.
Replaced by excitement and anticipation.
Eradicating a royal pirate crew of the Swift Tribe and killing their strong beings, if this plan succeeded, would be enough for them to boast about for a lifetime.
