Chapter 143: Sold Out (1)

Heavenly River Ancient Road

Danba was sitting inside his tent, flipping back and forth through the reports he had received with his eyebrows furrowed

“Strange So about this, but what?”

Kubrick, as standing to the side, asked, “Young Chief, what is so strange?”

Danba tapped the dossier in his hands and said, “The Heavenly Might Battalion has been stuck in the Blood and Iron Country for quite some time now In theory, their forces should have run out of rations a long tied es, we can infer fro to collect resources to build those land boats, which negatively impacted the nu to my estimates, they should have run out of rations after they passed by the Death Region But what happened then? It’s not a big deal that they ended up not going through the Death Region, but the first thing they should have done was try and stockpile rations However, they didn’t do that and instead rushed to attack the Permafrost Wastelands”

Kubrick hesitated for a moment, then replied, “The Permafrost Wastelands also have rations”

“But it’s far too little for what they need! That village is in the coldest place on the Permafrost Wastelands and produces the fewest natural resources There aren’t enough rations for therew exasperated “I have already calculated and analyzed the rations they ed to collect these past few days and coh Unless they ate all the Ferocious Race soldiers they killed, they should have starved to death a o, and that is already based on the most conservative estimates But they are still alive, hale and hearty Who can tellon?”

The rier he became

Kubrick was also stunned “How is this possible?”

His intelligence was only at a level where he couldn’t understand how this had happened Bayan’s intelligence wasn’t even at that level

He said in a hoarse voice, “Perhaps they ate grass or so else like that Us Ferocious Race individuals can live for half a ”

“The problem with that is that they aren’t Ferocious Race individuals, and they aren’t starving and weak; they’re still able to fight! Look at this report — three days ago, the Iron Tribe encountered a sroup of humans In the end, the elites of the Iron Branch Tribe were coroup of humans What does this ! Under these circuer in his heart, but his tone was growing increasingly unstable and violent

It wasn’t a big deal that the opponents were ju some time to wipe them out

However, what about the fact that the opponent’s weren’t groeaker but rather were actually getting stronger? That was a serious problem

Even Kubrick felt that this was a thorny issue He shook his head and said, “How can this be?”

“Also, the Iron Branch Tribe is located to the west Why would the Heavenly Might Battalion appear in that place? Their atte west; could it be that they’re planning on going through the Beast Race’s territory?” Danbato catch Demonic Beasts to eat, which is the reason why they haven’t starved to death yet,” Bayan chuckled

“Do you really think that place is soo as they please?” Danba resisted the urge to sround and stomp on the brain matter a few times

Suddenly, however, he realized that even if Bayan’s idea was stupid, it h the Beast Race was powerful, they were also very split up When one considered the organization and discipline of the Heavenly Might Battalion, and coes of this chaotic region, they ht actually be able to survive

The only question as the point of living like that?

Were they planning on settling down in that place?

Or were they just trying to delay for ti out of patience with the encircle another escape?

That wasn’t entirely out of the question, as the Ferocious Race were the ones ere lagging behind slightly and their endurance indeed had limits The Ferocious Race’s blockade of all theas the Heavenly Might Battalion was patient enough and could hold out long enough, they ht actually be able to wait until the Ferocious Race were no longer willing to h this was a crude tactic, it was undeniably effective

However, Danba also knew that killing a few scattered Deh to keep all these people alive

“They must have a source of food that we don’t know about!” Danba had actually hit the nail on the head after thinking about it for a long ti froht for a moment, then said, “Notify Astin I want to see him”

A day later
