Chapter 749: The Most Difficult Mission to Date

Yan Hua froze, questioning whether she had misheard what was just said. She asked, "Shaman, I heard correctly just now, didn’t I?"

What she had just heard was about razing entire Tribes to the ground. This seemed rather unlike the Shaman’s usual approach.

"You heard correctly. Leaving these Tribes intact will only result in them being occupied by other Tribes. Rather than allowing that, we should take the initiative to deal with them first." Su Bai said seriously.

He was sticking to his earlier thinking. Their Tribe currently had no way to spare the time to manage these Tribes. Even if they dealt with those Warriors, there would be no one available to lead the remaining people.

Without the leadership of a Chieftain and Shaman, a Tribe would inevitably fall sooner or later and would not last many days anyway.

Even if they were fortunate enough to survive for a period of time, they would eventually be taken over by surrounding Tribes who heard the news.

In the end, those Tribes would disappear all the same, except it would benefit the surrounding Tribes instead.

Allowing them to gain such a massive advantage for nothing, obtaining an entire Tribe without expending any effort whatsoever, would be far too convenient for them.

"That’s true. Leaving them behind would only lead to these Tribes’ demise anyway." Yan Hua instantly understood.

"In that case, when the time comes we’ll move all the useful things from those Tribes back here, then afterwards burn those Tribes down with fire." Sha Lan suggested.

"Forget about burning down those Tribes. Perhaps some Wanderers might still be able to use those Tribes as bases."

Su Bai took a sip of tea and continued, "Just bring back everyone except the Warriors."

He definitely did not want to bring back any Totem Warriors or Warrior Trainees. What the Tribe needed most right now was personnel for labour.

Those people brought back from other Tribes could completely serve as labour forces, and could also help the Tribe develop better.

If they brought back some Totem Warriors or Warrior Trainees, the Tribe would have to spend time nursing them back to health, and would even need to guard against them at every turn.

With the Flame Dragon Tribe’s current manpower and time constraints, this was completely unacceptable. Rather than waste such time and manpower, it would be better to simply deal with them directly.

Bringing back some people who were easier to train would be better instead, while simultaneously helping the Tribe’s development. Wasn’t this killing two birds with one stone?

"From what we know, those Small Tribes won’t have many Warriors. If we bring our Tribe’s weapons, we’ll definitely be able to crush them." Yan Hua remained exceptionally confident.

Because that was simply the reality. With the Flame Dragon Tribe’s arrows or explosive packages and such weapons, they were completely incomparable to other Tribes.

Even if Large Tribes came, it would be the same. Large Tribes only held the advantage of greater numbers, nothing more.

"Six people would be fine if we don’t need to worry about others." Sha Lan calculated.

"I think six people is about right. There’s no way to squeeze out more people." Su Bai said seriously.

He had calculated many different scenarios, and the current plan already seemed the most optimal.

If they needed to arrange for more people to go out, there was no way to do so, because the Tribe was currently constructing many things.

At the same time, the Tribe was also particularly large and also needed many people to maintain the Tribe’s security.

If too many people were sent out all at once, it wouldn’t help the Tribe’s security at all.

They couldn’t possibly allow the entire Tribe to fall just for the sake of eliminating some hidden dangers, could they?

"Shaman, rest assured. I think this number is about right, as long as we bring enough weapons." Yan Hua remained very confident.

Moreover, these six people were extremely strong, and could be considered among the best in the Tribe.

If they were to compete, probably only the Chieftain and Sha Hong could win. The probability of anyone else winning was very low.

"This time you absolutely must not overextend yourselves. You must first remember to scout the Tribe’s situation thoroughly. Only after confirming there are no problems whatsoever are you allowed to launch an attack." Su Bai instructed.

He was completely at ease about Cang Shi’s team. After all, that team’s members were all relatively experienced, and moreover their strength was not low either.

However, he was especially worried about Yan Hua’s team. Although their strength was also quite formidable, with Yan Hua’s reckless personality, some accidents might inevitably occur.

"Shaman, rest assured. This time I’ll definitely help you keep an eye on Ah’Hua. She’s been out on several missions before, and she’s always been very cautious. There definitely won’t be any problems." Sha Lan said with complete confidence.

Sha Lan had also been worried initially, but after going out on several missions, she felt it was nothing to worry about.

Perhaps this was the evolution from Warrior Trainee to Totem Warrior. Their mental maturity had also developed somewhat.

"…" Yan Hua puffed out her cheeks without saying anything. So, she was the one everyone was most worried about after all.

"This operation would be best conducted at night. Night-time is when everyone tends to let their guard down most easily." Su Bai imparted his experience.

Most of the wars back on Earth were also conducted at night. Of course, they couldn’t really be called wars. They should be considered surprise attacks instead.

This tactic could be said to work every single time. As long as they scouted the Tribe’s situation in advance and arranged corresponding plans accordingly, the final result would always achieve twice the results with half the effort.

"We were planning exactly that. With our numbers, facing them head-on during the day wouldn’t give us any advantage." Sha Lan nodded.

"This time I would rather you take longer, but ensure the mission’s completion rate, as well as your safety." Su Bai instructed once again.

He didn’t want them to act somewhat rashly in order to complete the mission more quickly.

"Yes, we’ll definitely only take action when we’re absolutely certain." Yan Hua said immediately.

She was thinking that she must use this mission to change the Shaman’s impression of her. She absolutely couldn’t appear hasty and impetuous anymore.

"Just proceed according to the Tribes with names on the list. The list has detailed addresses. You two teams can divide amongst yourselves which Tribes you’ll be responsible for."

Su Bai passed the list over and continued instructing, "You must take convenient routes, and you mustn’t be too arrogant."

This mission was truly too dangerous. He was extremely worried about the safety of the Warriors going out on this mission.

So, he could not help but repeatedly instruct them. This mission was completely different from previous missions. This mission was clearly more severe.

"Yes." Both Yan Hua and her companion answered in unison.

"Go and call over everyone participating in this mission for me, and also call the Chieftain over." Su Bai instructed.

He needed to speak properly with these people. This mission was the most severe mission since he had taken over management of the Tribe.

"Yes, I’ll go right away." Sha Lan turned and left.

"Shaman, I’m not at ease with only you in the Tribe." Yan Hua said worriedly.

Su Bai smiled warmly and said lightly, "Oh, right. You don’t know how strong I am."
