Ch95 – Catching People

Xiong Ye was now really, really big.

His animal form was a Kodiak Island brown bear, which was the largest bear species in the world, larger than the polar bear. An adult Kodiak Island brown bear was generally anywhere between two meters and two meters eighty tall, with males of the species tending to be larger.

That meant that an ordinary beastman whose animal form was this type of animal would generally be around two meters fifty in length. Those who were a little stronger would be around two meters seventy.

As long as they could become a low level Beast Warrior, their animal form would definitely reach the maximum size of a typical brown bear, which was over three meters.

After becoming a medium level Beast Warrior, Xiong Ye became even taller!

However, he wasn’t actually five meters tall right now. It was just that his appearance was so sudden that it scared people, and in those people’s eyes, he appeared extraordinarily tall.

Even if that was the case, he was very large; his weight had already reached two tons.

Yet, there were dinosaurs that weighed several tens of tons and were tens of meters tall. With that as a comparison, he didn’t amount to much. He had even seen a giant beast that was even bigger than those dinosaurs–the one who had saved him and destroyed a forest was at least a hundred tons.

Xiong Ye didn’t dare be complacent at all. After knocking people down, he gestured to have the others come over and take these people away.

He had no interest in killing, so he had them bring these people back to the tribe for the priest to deal with.

As for now… Xiong Ye wanted to try all of the ‘hunting’ methods that Zhou Ji had mentioned before on the Giant Tiger Tribe.

After that, the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe suffered badly.

After having lost a few people, Hu Tian became careful and gathered everyone together. However, this was a forest, not open space.

There was no way to really pull several hundred people together.

Hu Tian could only loosely gather people around him and send out some people to check out the situation around them.

As a result…

Not only did the people who had been caught not come back, even some of the people who had gone out to investigate never returned.

That was bad enough, but then some people would fall into traps as they walked, or spears would be thrown at their people all of a sudden, injuring them.

Even before they reached the Big Bear Tribe, over a dozen people had been caught or gone missing, and seven or eight others had been injured.

Hu Tian was so angry he lost his temper, “That damned Big Bear Tribe!”

“Chief, what should we do now?” Mao Huo was worried and asked.

“Move faster!” Hu Tian ordered.

He wasn’t afraid of these small tricks by the Big Bear Tribe, but he was a little irritated and became even more determined to make sure that all of the people of the Big Bear Tribe were slaughtered!

Hu Tian wanted to move faster, but they had only walked a little further when they encountered Xiong Ye.

Xiong Ye brought Zhu Zhan with him and directly barred Hu Tian’s path.

He couldn’t allow the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe get close to the Big Bear Tribe. Since that was the case, he had to stop them before they reached the Big Bear Tribe.

When they saw Xiong Ye and his people, Hu Tian’s pupils contracted, and he was on guard immediately.

Xiong Ye looked very young. He didn’t feel very threatened when he saw Xiong Ye, but it was obvious with a glance that Zhu Zhan was not a good person to provoke.

The subordinates behind him also looked abnormally fierce.

Hu Tian’s reaction when faced with such a situation was to realize that he had fallen into the other party’s schemes.

Back then in the Little Brook Tribe, the people of the Big Bear Tribe had plotted and wiped out Hu Tiao and the others. Now… had these people schemed against them again?

Hu Tian roared and immediately pounced at Zhu Zhan.

Although he knew he had been schemed against, he didn’t think that he would lose.

As soon as Hu Tian made his move, Zhu Zhan followed suit and changed into his animal form to meet Hu Tian head on.

Both of them were medium level Beast Warrior,s and their animal forms were of similar sizes. Their fighting power was also similar, and it was difficult to determine victory or loss for a period of time. At this moment, Hu Tian’s subordinates also charged towards Xiong Ye and the others.

Xiong Ye also turned into his animal form, and a huge brown bear appeared out of the blue, almost squashing one of the fighters that had rushed over to death.

There were many people on the scene who were in animal form, but none of them were larger than Xiong Ye. Hu Tian’s animal form was that of a saber-toothed tiger that was larger than an ordinary tiger, but it was still nothing when compared to a brown bear.

Hu Tian’s subordinates were all in a daze, but Xiong Ye had begun to attack left and right, knocking many people unconscious and then tossing them behind him.

The Giant Tiger Tribe that had originally been full of momentum was instantly afraid to rush forward.

As a result, Xiong Ye turned back into his human form and said, “Run!”

Xiong Ye hadn’t brought many people with him. He only had about forty, and while he might be alright if he faced hundreds of people heads on, his subordinates might suffer. Since that was the case… They should retreat while they were still ahead!

As soon as Xiong Ye spoke, he started to run back. Seeing the situation, Zhu Zhan followed suit and turned to run.

He had always loved fighting and wanted to have a proper fight with Hu Tian, but he wasn’t stupid.

His strength and Hu Tian’s were similar, but Hu Tian had hundreds of subordinates. He would be the only one left behind after Xiong Ye left; wasn’t that just looking to die?

Hu Tian roared, wanting to chase after them, but he faced the same situation as Zhu Zhan–if he went after them alone, wouldn’t that simply be looking for death?

Hu Tian didn’t turn back into his human form. Instead, he swatted a paw towards Ma Xiao.

Ma Xiao’s animal form was a hippopotamus, and he was very sturdy, but Hu Tian’s claws were truly very sharp and left a few deep wounds.

“Ma Xiao, wasn’t it you who said that there weren’t many powerful people in the Big Bear Tribe?” Hu Tian was about to go crazy from anger.

Ma Xiao didn’t dare speak a single word. He turned back into his human form and knelt on the ground. At this time, he also realized that he had been deceived by the people of the Big Bear Tribe.

However… The things he had seen back then hadn’t been fake!

Especially that Xiong Ye…

Xiong Ye had clearly been seriously injured at the time and had only been able to eat grass. How could he become such a strong person so quickly? Could such a strong person like him have been just acting in front of him?

Ma Xiao felt that something must have gone wrong somewhere!

“Let’s go back!” Hu Tian said. He had encountered two people who were on the same level of strength as he was and naturally wouldn’t dare to push towards the Big Bear Tribe.

Off in the distance, Xiong Ye sent the captives from the Giant Tiger Tribe back to the tribe and waited for news along with Zhu Zhan and the others.

Not long later, a monkey came down from the tree and turned back into human form. He said, “Lord Xiong Ye, the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe have gone back.”

Xiong Ye’s expression was full of joy.

The Giant Tiger Tribe had brought many people with them, and they had very high combat power. If these people really came to the Big Bear Tribe, they would be able to fight against them but would have to pay some price. Now, however, these people were running away…

According to Zhou Ji, the fact that they were doing this meant that they had lost what momentum they had. A team like this that had lost its morale was naturally easier to deal with!

“Let’s follow!” Xiong Ye said. He sent someone back to the tribe to bring back more warriors.

The Giant Tiger Tribe had so many people that it was easy for them to follow and keep up with them. After following behind them, he could deal with them slowly according to the methods that Zhou Ji had mentioned before!

Xiong Ye was really excited about all of this.

Back at the Big Bear Tribe, the priest had already received the people from the Giant Tiger Tribe that Xiong Ye had sent over.

Xiong Ye hadn’t killed them but had sent them back instead, but for what? The priest didn’t understand, but he soon felt that he had realized the truth of the matter–had Xiong Ye sent these people back so that they could become slaves?

That was a pretty good idea, but these people’s strength wasn’t bad, and they might not necessarily be able to control them.

The priest looked at Zhou Ji.

At this time, Zhou Ji already understood what Xiong Ye was doing.

Xiong Ye didn’t have many people with him, but he believed that Xiong Ye would be able to bring down the Giant Tiger Tribe.

Knowledge was a precious thing in any era. Xiong Ye had learned so much knowledge from him, and it couldn’t have all been completely useless.

As for these people from the Giant Tiger Tribe…

Zhou Ji instructed, “Separate everyone individually and lock them in the houses or in the pens that hold the dinosaurs. After starving them for a few days, we can deal with them again and have them help us with the work that needs to be done.”

If these people were placed together, they might find a way to escape, but it was different if they were all split up. After they were starved to the point where they no longer had strength, it would become easier to ‘persuade’ them.

The people of the Big Bear Tribe wanted to prepare a large area of land for farming and was currently short on people!

The priest didn’t hesitate to do exactly that.

Those who weren’t injured were locked inside the houses, with people keeping watch outside. Those whose injuries were more serious were then penned up with the dinosaurs.

He wanted to protect the dinosaurs that they had raised, so he couldn’t allow those people who weren’t injured and still had strength left to stay with their precious dinosaurs!

The priest harrumphed a few times and arranged for everyone to do what needed to be done. And at this time, Xiong Ye had led his people to harass the ranks of the Giant Tiger Tribe relentlessly.

The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe had just caught prey; he led people to go and snatch it away.

They had just finished setting up a fire and were preparing to eat; he had his subordinates capture a few people with nets.

They were sleeping and having a proper rest; he once again led people to seize them…

Hu Tian felt that his decision to attack the Big Bear Tribe had been so wrong that he couldn’t possibly be more wrong. How could he have provoked a group of people like this?

Ever since he had arrived here, he wanted to ignore everything else and just have a proper fight with Xiong Ye or Zhu Zhan. He had forced a few of them to have to stay behind! But these two simply refused to fight against him straight on!

These people were really too shameless! They were so powerful, yet they still insisted on using these schemes!
