His voice was gentle, but everyone could hear the worry in his tone.
Han Shuang stood to the side, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
He had just awakened his Ice God bloodline, and the power within him was still roiling, like a flame that had been suppressed for a long time and had finally found its way out.
“Then what should we do? Should we just give up and not save them?”
His voice sounded tense. “Those people are my people. They toil in the mines like beasts of burden, and we just watch from the outside?”
“Save them.” David ran his finger across the map, drawing a line to the left of the North Mine location. “Look here.”
The others followed his finger.
On the map, about three thousand miles west of the North Mine, there was an area marked—Sirius Tribe.
The area was marked with orc runes and surrounded by a red border; it marked the territory of the Sirius tribe.
Jiang Xuelan’s eyes narrowed slightly. Her Ice God Power flowed slowly within her body, dispelling some of the cold around her.
“Sirius Tribe? You guys want Wolf Hao’s help?”
David nodded.
“The Northern Mines are very close to the Sirius Tribe. The Judgment Hall has been mining there for thousands of years, and the Sirius Tribe has long disliked them. However, they never had any reason to act, nor do they dare. Venerable Judgment is an Eighth Rank True God, and Lang Hao cannot defeat him.”
“And now?” Yunxi looked up at him.
David smiled.
His smile was faint, but there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.
“Now the situation is different. The Sirius Tribe owes me a favor. I saved the old chief’s life, so if I ask, Wolf Hao won’t refuse.”
He kept the map and stood up.
His long blue robe fluttered slightly in the evening breeze, and the Dragon Slayer Sword hanging from his waist reflected the faint light of the setting sun.
“Go to the Sirius Tribe.”
The Sirius tribe’s camp was located in a barren land, with tents spread out and plumes of smoke rising from their chimneys.
As dusk falls, the camping area is filled with the aroma of grilled meat and spices.
The orc warriors sat around the campfire, some sharpening their weapons, some talking in low voices, and some tending to the wounded.
The children ran and played among the tents, their laughter echoing.
Their hands held each other tightly, like two eras meeting.
