329 Breaking the Barrier (1/2)

'Thud'

With a loud sound, both Ajax and the masked birdman fell into a dark room.

”Ouch,” Ajax rubbed his head as he looked at his surroundings which had barely enough light to look a few meters around him.

In front of him, the masked birdman also stood up and checked his surroundings with a flame in his hands and immediately bowed before saying, ”Grand Elder, what are you doing here?”

Ajax looked in the masked birdman's direction and noticed there were a group of old and middle-age birdmen sitting cross-legged.

”Huh? What are you doing here, Captain of the 15 crows?” The old man at the front stood up from the ground as he replied to the masked birdman with a question.

”I came to kill that damn tribe leader of ours,” the masked birdman gritted his teeth as he said to the Grand Elder of the fire crow tribe.

”Did he come back to the tribe?” a middle-aged birdman beside the Grand Elder, hurriedly asked with an anxious voice.

”Yes, I think his body is destroyed in the fight with the Hawk tribe leader and but his spirit might be hiding in this house since the barrier around the tribe leader's house is still intact,” The masked birdman looked at the elder, who asked the question and briefly explained the events that had happened in the Hawk tribe.

”Then we might have a chance to break this barrier that is blocking us from going out,” the Grand Elder looked excited after hearing the masked birdman's words and immediately took out a rhombus-shaped wooden token that had weird markings.

After hearing the Grand Elder's words, the masked birdman didn't ask any questions as he was able to understand why all the elders and grand elders were struck here and looked at the wooden token in the Grand Elder's hands.

”Every one, take out your tokens,” The Grand Elder closed his eyes before ordering the other tribe members around him.

Soon, every elder and even the masked birdman took out a similar-looking token from his space ring.

”Transfer all your energy into the token before transmitting that energy towards my wooden token, when I ask you. Do you understand?” The Grand Elder's voice sounded very serious making all those present in the dark room shudder.

”Yes, Grand Elder,” Except for Ajax, everyone nodded their head and followed the Grand Elder's words.

'Woah, looks like something is going to happen here,' Ajax's interest in their actions increased and expectantly looked at them.

”Now, transfer that energy to me,” The Grand Elder's voice shook the silent dark room once again as the energy beams from all the wooden tokens shot towards the Grand Elder's wooden token.

”Boomm”

As soon as all the energy entered into the Grand Elder's wooden token, a much bigger than the previous small energy beams shot towards the barrier and made a hole in it.

”Yay”

Just as the barrier disappeared Ajax excitedly shouted; however, he soon remembered he was surrounded by a bunch of fire crow oldies and covered his mouth.

”By the way, who is this human brat?” One of the elders curiously asked about Ajax.

”He is the one who saved Raweth and brought him back to our tribe,” The masked birdman didn't inform about Ajax's details much but introduced him in simple words.

”Oh, good,” When they heard the masked birdman's words, all of them nodded their heads and felt grateful.

Everyone in the fire crow tribe knows how important Raweth was for their tribe and when they heard that he was being on a mission for a few months, they were worried.

Since Ajax saved their tribe's hope, they felt grateful but they were in a hurry and were unable to thank him properly before rushing out of the room.

'Uff…,' Ajax heaved a sigh of relief and scolded himself for losing focus on his surroundings.
