Chapter 18
"Your army has already been defeated, the chief and the High Priest have both been executed. You must now make a choice: surrender, or die!"
In front of the Black Fox tribe’s stockade, a White Fox warrior shouted loudly.
The Black Fox tribe’s stockade was very large, with several tens of thousands of Black Fox-kin living inside.
At this time, on the walls of the stockade, a large number of Black Fox warriors had intense unease on their faces.
Because outside the stockade, it was full of dense Fox-kin warriors.
And on the ground at the main entrance of the stockade, two people were still kneeling!
These two people were none other than the sons of the Black Fox tribe’s chief.
In the battle on the Wasteland of Miracles, there were still some Black Fox-kin in the distance who escaped; the number of these people was not large, but they also brought the news of the defeat.
Therefore, the Black Fox warriors on the stockade were all drumming in their hearts, not knowing whether they should fight.
"What are you panicking about? We have hundreds of archers, and our stockade is so high, they can't attack at all."
A Black Fox-kin said loudly.
This Black Fox-kin was the younger brother of the Black Fox chief; once the Black Fox chief died, he could become the new chief!
The temptation to become the chief was right in front of him, so how could he surrender!
His appearance settled the hearts of many Black Fox-kin.
Yes, the Black Fox stockade’s walls were built high and large, and they still had hundreds of archers guarding the city; although there were several thousand people outside, they shouldn't even think about attacking!
"Kill them."
Seeing that the Black Fox-kin had no intention of surrendering, the fox-girl Qing Ling ordered.
The White Fox warriors raised their hands and brought down their blades, directly beheading the Black Fox chief’s two sons.
This scene brought another shock to the Black Fox-kin inside the stockade.
Immediately following, they saw a woman wearing a silk robe, with a light veil on her face and a figure that looked incomparably graceful, walk to the front, holding a magic wand in her hand, and began to chant softly.
"Mage, it’s a mage!"
Some Black Fox-kin saw Sister Sister Mengying and let out exclamations!
On the wall directly above the stockade gate, the younger brother of the Black Fox chief also saw Sister Sister Mengying.
He also saw the magic wand that was becoming brighter and brighter.
In his heart, extreme unease flashed.
Human mages have quite a few differences from Beast-kin priests.
The most obvious difference is that Beast-kin priests have some strange and eerie means.
While human mages don't have many means, their attacks are exceptionally sharp!
"Quick, kill her."
The younger brother of the Black Fox chief shouted.
A large number of Black Fox warriors had already bent their bows and set arrows, shooting toward Sister Sister Mengying.
However, in front of Sister Sister Mengying, several White Fox warriors held up large shields, blocking all these arrows.
A few seconds later, the light emitted by the magic wand in Sister Sister Mengying’s hand was already quite dazzling.
The younger brother of the Black Fox chief began to panic.
However, panic was useless.
Because, in the sky, a huge fireball slammed down fiercely!
"Boom!"
This fireball did not deviate in the slightest, hitting him exactly.
Then it erupted above the stockade gate.
One could see the entire stockade gate, like tofu dregs, being directly destroyed by this fireball.
Immediately following, a great fire ignited.
The warriors there were all buried in the sea of fire, and the wide gate was completely burned down!
Outside the stockade, all the Fox-kin warriors cheered, shouting the name of the "Lord of Flames".
Sister Sister Mengying’s attack just now was also a Divine Art.
This was an ability Lin Yan possessed after evolving into "Heavenly Fire".
Heavenly Fire, fire descending from the heavens.
If that fireball had attacked a human stone city, the power would not have had such a good effect.
But the Black Fox tribe’s stockade was all built with wood; as long as the bottom part was stone, no matter how high it was built, it was useless!
Dozens of seconds later, the fire at the stockade gate subsided.
"Follow me and charge!"
Those dozen or so tribal chiefs who wanted to show their loyalty to the "Lord of Flames" scrambled to lead their people in.
Fearing that others would snatch the lead!
And on the other side, after Sister Sister Mengying destroyed the stockade gate with one strike and killed the Black Fox chief’s younger brother and a large number of Black Fox warriors, the other Black Fox warriors in the stockade were ashen-faced, with no fighting spirit left!
The attacking Fox-kin tribes were like a hot knife through butter; the entire Black Fox tribe still had several thousand warriors, yet there was no decent resistance!
In the Black Fox tribe, the battle had already come to an end.
In this battle, not many Black Fox warriors died, because a large number of Black Fox warriors had lost their fighting spirit and surrendered one after another.
The handling of the Black Fox tribe was very simple.
All Black Fox warriors of the Black Fox tribe would be taken away and sent to the mines to mine.
As for the other women, old people, and children of the Black Fox tribe who had no combat capability, as long as they were willing to believe in the "Lord of Flames", they would be allowed to continue living in this forest.
But they would be watched by the warriors of other tribes.
However, everyone in the chief and priest line was executed.
The Black Fox tribe occupied a large amount of land in the forest, and these remaining people of the Black Fox tribe had no problem feeding themselves.
These lands were all fertile lands in the forest before, but now the Fox-kin of other tribes had completely lost interest in them.
The land in the Wasteland of Miracles was far more fertile than the land in this forest.
To some extent, these people were also hostages for the other tribes.
With them there, the Black Fox warriors mining would behave themselves.
"The great Lord of Flames is merciful; as long as you mine well in the mines and believe in the Lord of Flames, when you pray every day and your faith reaches a certain level, and you are perceived by the Lord of Flames, the Lord of Flames can grant you freedom and give you and your family the right to live in the Wasteland of Miracles!"
The fox-girl Qing Ling did not forget to give these Black Fox warriors some hope.
The main culprits had already been executed.
If there were really Black Fox warriors whose faith in Lin Yan reached a quite devout level, giving this Black Fox warrior freedom was nothing.
Inside the Black Fox tribe, people from major tribes were still escorting the Black Fox warriors away.
And the fox-girl Qing Ling and the young maiden Sister Sister Mengying came to an altar deep in the Black Fox tribe.
That altar was in a small square inside the Black Fox tribe.
Above the altar, there were also several totems.
"Sister Sister Sister Mengying, is this the god that the Black Fox tribe believes in?"
The fox-girl Qing Ling asked.
The two of them were of similar age, both 15 years old, but the young maiden Sister Sister Mengying was a few days older.
"Yes, Saintess."
Sister Sister Mengying looked at those totems and said.
The fox-girl Qing Ling came to the side of the altar, clasped her hands together, and began to pray to Lin Yan.
Not long after, a small flame appeared above her, and then floated to the top of the altar.
"Boom!"
On the altar, a raging fire ignited.
Lin Yan had arrived!
The fox-girl Qing Ling and the young maiden Sister Sister Mengying lowered their heads at the same time.
As soon as Lin Yan arrived on the altar, he discovered something unusual.
Because he discovered a large amount of faith power on the several totems next to the altar.
The Black Fox tribe also had a god they believed in.
What they believed in was a barbarian god whose power leaned toward a dark nature, and they forced other Fox-kin to believe in it.
