Lu Zhu said with a forlorn expression, “What a pity for those Ice Lotuses in the Great Swamp.”

The Ice Lotus from the Beaver Tribe was once their most important specialty.

The Ice Lotus has a cool and sweet taste, making it an excellent choice for relief from the summer heat. It also provides some benefits in enhancing the strength of Warriors.

Just like the Magic Mushroom of the Mountain Turtle Tribe, the Beaver Tribe once relied on the Ice Lotus to trade many supplies with other tribes every year, earning a fortune.

But now, they’ve migrated to a new place and lost the Ice Lotus as a specialty.

Jing Jie asked curiously, “Didn’t you bring some Ice Lotus seeds with you when you migrated?”

Lu Zhu replied bitterly, “We did, but the Ice Lotus is naturally suited to the Great Swamp. After bringing it here, it grows very poorly and the taste has also declined significantly.”

Jing Jie nodded in understanding, because the Vine Tribe is also planting some Ice Lotus in the deep water pond, but the difference is really too great compared to the Ice Lotus in the Great Swamp.

First is the appearance; the transplanted Ice Lotus is no longer crystal clear, and then there’s the taste, which is no longer cold upon entry, nor does it help much in enhancing Warriors’ strength.

In other words, the transplanted Ice Lotus has lost its distinctiveness and is no better than ordinary lotus roots.

The reason why a specialty is considered a specialty is because it grows in a specific place to obtain the best taste and effects. Once it leaves that place, it loses its advantage.

Jing Jie asked again, “How are you all doing over here?”

“We…”

Just as Lu Zhu was about to answer, a howl unique to the tribe during hunting and battle suddenly came from outside.

Lu Zhu’s expression changed, grabbing his weapon and running out, completely disregarding Jing Jie.

At this time, outside the Beaver Tribe, more than a thousand warriors from an outside tribe were roaring and rushing towards the Beaver Tribe.

Very quickly, the Beaver Tribe was embroiled in a fierce battle with the suddenly appearing tribe.

Inside the house, the Vine Tribe warriors also gripped their weapons, their expressions becoming tense.

“Chief, what should we do?”

They gathered around Jing Jie, waiting for his decision.

Jing Jie frowned and thought for a moment, then said, “Retreat to the ship first.”

“Yes!”

The Vine Tribe warriors quickly ran outside with Jing Jie, then boarded the ship by the riverbank.

Since the warriors from the outside tribe came from the forest and hadn’t breached the Beaver Tribe, their retreat was relatively smooth.

Once on the ship, Jing Jie finally had the chance to observe the battle situation.

The attackers of the Beaver Tribe were the Ape Tribe.

The Ape Tribe is also a small tribe nearby, but they are much more powerful than the Beaver Tribe, with about two thousand people, and their Totem God is an ape.

This attack on the Beaver Tribe included a large number of fierce apes accompanying them.

As for the Beaver Tribe, after relocation, there are about five hundred people. Although the Large Water Otters are quite strong in combat, they are far fewer in number than the apes.

With such a disparity in strength, the Beaver Tribe simply couldn’t hold out.

“Get in the water, get in the water quickly!”

The Beaver Tribe leader, Lu Zhu, shouted loudly, and all the tribespeople fought while retreating.

The houses of the Beaver Tribe are half on land, half in the water.

When they retreated to beside the houses, they immediately, without hesitation, jumped into the water from everywhere.

“Splash…”

The tribespeople of the Beaver Tribe, along with the Large Water Otters, all entered the water, causing splashes everywhere.

Wherever there are Large Water Otters, there are usually many dug holes, and most of these holes have entrances below the water surface, making it difficult for land-dwelling animals, other than Water Beasts, to enter.

In the blink of an eye, the tribespeople of the Beaver Tribe had fled cleanly and swiftly, which was jaw-dropping.

This is also one of the reasons why the Beaver Tribe, despite not being powerful, has survived longer than many other tribes.

Escape is also a skilled task.

“Find them, find them out!”

The Ape Tribe leader watched the cooked duck fly away, jumping with anger.

However, the warriors of the Ape Tribe dared not go into the water, no matter how they searched, it was a futile effort.

They couldn’t even find the Beaver Tribe’s food and various tools, disassembling the houses didn’t help either.

Could it be a wasted trip?

The Ape Tribe leader was very unwilling, as he had hoped to seize enough food from the Beaver Tribe to take back for the winter.

Soon, the Ape Tribe leader fixed his gaze on the Vine Tribe’s fleet on the river.

He didn’t recognize the “ship” as a water transportation tool or the Vine Tribe’s Totem Banner, but he guessed there must be food on board.

At this time, the Vine Tribe’s fleet had just weighed anchor and hadn’t had time to leave the river bay to reach deep water.

“Seize their goods!”

At the command of the Ape Tribe leader, all warriors and apes rushed towards the Vine Tribe’s fleet at high speed.

“Chief, what should we do?”

The crew on the ship panicked. They didn’t expect to encounter such a situation on their first voyage.

Jing Jie gritted his teeth and said, “Our ship will soon leave the shore and go to deep water, everyone hold on.”
