Anything can happen once we’ve left the Tribe.\" Sha Lan warned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Lan was different from the others; after the Black Snake Tribe’s attack last time, she had been away from the Tribe for a long period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This current scene was all too familiar. Once beyond the Tribe’s protection, danger lurked everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not like this kind of situation has not happened before. Didn’t it just occur recently?\" Yan Hua also knew they should not be careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the eternal night had arrived, the Tribe had been attacked by a giant unknown bird.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, nothing serious had happened, and that giant bird had also been dealt with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I feel like these Ferocious Beasts could charge out at any moment.\" Sha Lan’s blue eyes continuously surveyed the environment beneath the hot air balloon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Chirp chirp chirp…*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Rustle rustle rustle…*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A series of urgent calls rang out, accompanied by the sound of branches being disturbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flock of birds appeared. They were greyish-brown all over with sharp, pointed beaks that also had greyish-brown tips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their two claws were thin and short, but their sharpness was clearly visible. Their body size was similar to eagles from Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With wings spread to a metre long, they looked like a combination of eagles and pigeons, a quite strange combination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ferocious Beasts are attacking! Everyone be careful!\" Yan Hua knew things would not be this simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We must protect the hot air balloons! Otherwise, we won’t be able to get back!\" Sha Lan pointed out the severity of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Lan could see that this flock of wild beasts was quite large, especially their very sharp, long beaks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Animal Hide on the hot air balloons got punctured, they would fall straight down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\" The other Totem Warriors responded in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone had their recurve bows ready, just waiting for these Ferocious Beasts to approach before shooting to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was still some distance between the hot air balloons and the forest below, so it would take time for these grey birds to fly up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason the Totem Warriors did not blindly shoot arrows was because they worried about missing or having insufficient lethality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aim for their heads or wings. We absolutely cannot let them get close to the hot air balloons.\" Sha Lan wanted these birds to fall straight down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Meeting me today is your misfortune!\" Yan Hua, relying on her super-precise accuracy, had already made two grey birds fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, both birds had been shot in the head and fell before they could even cry out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These birds probably did not even know how they died, having been eliminated before they could get close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Swish swish swish…*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A series of whooshing sounds rang out as the other Totem Warriors also began firing their recurve bows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Chirp chirp chirp…*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Visibly, grey birds kept falling one by one, but there were still many more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the dense black mass, it was impossible to distinguish exactly how many there were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah’Hua, this isn’t working. There are too many of them while our arrows are limited,\" Sha Lan noticed something was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how many approaching birds the Totem Warriors shot down, the remaining birds would continue flying up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Shaman once taught us something like… to capture the bandits, first capture their king?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Hua could not remember very clearly, but said earnestly. \"There must be a leader among these birds. I think if we shoot it down, things will improve.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, that’s the saying.\" Sha Lan also remembered this phrase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Sha Lans had free time at the Yong’an Building, Su Bai would teach them various things when he was available.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things like luring the tiger away from the mountain, of the thirty-six stratagems running away is the best, to capture the bandits, first capture their king, and so forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Lans listened with great interest, all feeling these methods were very useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There it is, right in the middle!\" Yan Hua instantly spotted the leader of this flock of birds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That grey bird was obviously much larger in size, with some black mottled patterns on its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been hiding behind the other birds, not daring to approach.\u003C\u002Fp>",1263,"2026-06-05T22:27:00.632Z",1,"novelbin.me","6ea72e2c25603cde2f13c4904099ce06b8e34c8b5b7d15f52f0fc84d663bd613","i-became-the-chief-of-a-primitive-village-chapter-652","i-became-the-chief-of-a-primitive-village-chapter-650",983,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-the-chief-of-a-primitive-village-cover.jpg"]
