Chapter 545: The Bomb Mixed with Truth and Falsehood

The stones were violently blasted apart, gravel flew, and dust drifted. Fortunately, no one was injured. The Huaxia Soldiers just felt the sound was a bit too ear-piercing; they didn't have many other feelings. After all, they had used this thing many times, and even if they hadn't been on the battlefield, they had used it quite a bit during training.

Only the people of the Sixia Tribe were so frightened that they lay on the ground, not daring to get up for a long time. The few people who had watched the war where the Suiren Clan attacked Huaxia already had thoughts of fleeing; they knew this Weapon was not something humans could resist.

Sixia was no better off. He knew Huaxia had this kind of high-powered Weapon that could stop tens of thousands of people in their tracks, but this was his first time seeing it. He had occupied Sulfur Land because of this, but after truly witnessing the power of the Explosive, his dark face actually looked somewhat pale.

Yishang clapped his hands and shouted to the people of the Sixia Tribe lying on the ground: "Alright, get up now, it's fine, there is no more danger!"

Only then did the people of the Sixia Tribe look around timidly and slowly stand up, though some of their legs had already gone soft. This was as terrifying as thunder exploding right before their eyes.

Yishang said to the still-dazed Sixia: "These are the Weapons we are giving you this time. You don't need to pay any price because we are allies. All I need is for you to guard Sulfur Land well. Even if the Suiren Clan comes, with this kind of Weapon, they are guaranteed not to dare to come over."

Sixia looked tremblingly at those few crates of Explosives. The quantity was large, and he felt it was enough to deal with the Suiren Clan. If Huaxia could resist the Suiren Clan, couldn't they? But he suddenly thought...

Sixia interrupted his fantasy directly: "Don't you think about using this thing to deal with us. We made this, and we know better than anyone how to deal with it. Moreover, for Huaxia, this is just a pitifully small portion. If we wanted to, we could blast these mountains in Sulfur Land into flat ground. Do you understand?"

Sixia nodded repeatedly, indicating that he absolutely did not have such thoughts.

"It's good that you don't. And when you need to use them, just take a burning wooden stick or something similar and touch it to the tip of the Fuse. Look, this is the Fuse."

Yishang took an Explosive out of the crate and pointed at the Fuse to tell Sixia. Sixia panicked and retreated several steps, fearing that the Explosive would explode in Yishang's hands.

Yishang smiled and said to Sixia: "Don't worry, it won't explode that easily. Anyway, when you use it, once you see the Fuse start to spark and sizzle, throw it out immediately. Just throw it toward the enemy. Don't wait too long in your hand, or you will blow yourselves up."

Finally, remember one point: don't move it around in daily life, or it might explode. When using it, take the ones on top first, then take the ones below. Keep them in a dry place, don't let them get rained on, and don't let them touch water. Do you understand?"

Sixia nodded repeatedly. Yishang turned his gaze to the other Sixia Tribe Soldiers who were listening and questioned them with his eyes; they also hurriedly nodded to say they had remembered it.

Only then did Yishang return the Bomb to the box and close it: "Alright, that's it then. Remember to carry the box with your hands, don't drop it on the road, and keep it well. Go back now. The next time we come will probably be after a similar interval. Of course, we will generally be a few days late, but we won't be early. You must know that this distance is very far."

Sixia felt as if he had been granted amnesty and quickly gathered his tribesmen to carry the grain and prepare to return. A few unlucky ones were responsible for carrying the Explosive crates; not only were they heavy, but they could also cost them their lives at any moment, but they could only carry the crates with mournful faces.

The Huaxia Soldiers also quickly transferred the remaining bit of Sulfur to the Large Ship, then raised the anchor, hoisted the sails, and began the return voyage.

The hunting teams sent out by Huaxia, especially those in the direction from Lema City to Xiao Town, had very good gains. The wilderness, which had never seen human footprints, was rich in prey, and they also discovered many fruit trees, which could provide more food for Huaxia.

Plus, the overlord in this forest had already been hunted and killed by them, so more wild beasts that sensed the situation became bolder, their range of activity became wider, and it was more favorable for Huaxia's hunting operations.

In the process of continuous hunting, they also discovered a large wolf pack. Lu was not sure if it was the same pack they had encountered before, as he couldn't tell the difference in the wolves' appearances anyway. However, the wolf pack seemed to be intentionally avoiding them; even if they saw them, they would immediately steer clear.

For the hunters, this was also a good thing. They didn't want to clash with such a large wolf pack. If it were a small wolf pack, it would become their prey, but such a large wolf pack with a wide range of activity meant they might be in the wolf pack's territory right now.

A wolf pack might not remember kindness, but it would definitely hold a grudge. To avoid unnecessary trouble, they had no thoughts of hunting the wolves. After the prey here was hunted almost clean and the wolf pack couldn't find prey, they should leave here automatically to find a territory more suitable for them.

That was what Lu and the others thought, but the wolf pack didn't seem to think so. From the initial peace and mutual avoidance, after ten days or so, the hunters keenly sensed that the wolf pack seemed to have started tracking them. Of course, it might just be to scavenge the useless animal entrails they left behind in the wilderness.

During the hunt, they also encountered many crises. Because of the decrease in prey, they needed to advance into deeper areas, which corresponded to a more unfamiliar jungle environment. To ensure the success rate of hunting, they were basically in groups of about ten, which allowed them to help each other, resist large fierce beasts, reduce noise, and improve the success rate of hunting.

The old hunter Xi led his group of hunters to track a group of wild boars. The wild boars in this area could almost be described as rampant. Their massive destructive power and high reproductive ability made wild boars the most numerous medium-to-large herbivorous or omnivorous animals in these mountains and forests.

Wild boars were also the prey all hunters loved most, and they were the beasts they had captured the most during this period. Among everyone's harvest, there were a few male boars with huge builds, and one even belonged to a solitary large male boar that even ordinary wild beasts didn't dare to provoke easily. A group of Huaxia Soldiers was very unlucky; they accidentally encountered this wild boar. Their target was not it, but it ambushed them from the dark and directly used its tusks to gouge a large hole in a hunter's buttocks. By the time everyone reacted, that Soldier had already been tossed into the air several times.
