Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Needless to say, seeing the eyes of these sand slaves, the others knew what to do.

It was a really good place to rest, but it’s not a place to be taken lightly, and the first thing to be prepared for was the sand slaves.

There were only a few tall walls, no roofs, and the wind was dry and dusty. The temperature was dropping when the sky was getting dark. Even the three people who had to adapt to the cold winter in the Flaming Horns tribe could also feel the goose bumps. They were not frozen, but they always felt a chilling feeling.

“Eat something first, and keep watch later.” Shao Xuan said.

They broke apart a piece of bread and divided it for the three people to eat, together with a little meat and water to keep it down.

The rest of the team were similarly eating, and the people of the same tribe were together. This time, they would naturally rely on the people of their own tribe.

Shao Xuan looked closely at the camel following them. It was very clever, knowing it was with Shao Xuan’s side, so it avoided the other people, especially the sand slaves. Currently, it was chewing a corner of a plant like withered roots, and was eating with relish.

The sight of the sand slaves swept round the men in the procession, and then stuck to Mud that was chewing, with a hint of greed in their eyes.

A sand slave closest to Mud finally couldn’t help it. This sand slave was one with a darker skin. In the night, it was like a layer of protective color, and while holding a sharpened spur, like a predator of the night, he suddenly rushed out.

Although his ultimate goal was the camel, the first thing he has to solve was Shao Xuan next to the camel.

There was no other extra action, everything was just fast! Ruthless! Hard! Enough for the hit to be deadly.

The protruding bone spur was screaming with a broken wind. If Shao was stabbed, his chest would be directly penetrated. Even if the resilience of a totem warrior was strong, they could not escape the fate of a man who had been stabbed to death.

There was no fire on Shao Xuan’s side. By the light of the moon, Shao Xuan could see jagged lines appearing on the sand slave. It was different from the slaves he had seen before, when he was looking for the Flaming Horns tribe people. The slaves over there showed a chain-style pattern, not a jagged one.

So, these slaves belong to a different slave owner?

The flushed sand slave’s eyes reflected the cold moonlight, with a hint of bloodthirsty excitement, as if he would immediately hook the piece of meat from the other. Perhaps he felt that he would soon be able to solve these extra people and then monopolize the camel.

Puff!

The sound of the body being penetrated was particularly clear at this time.

The expression on the washed-out sand slave’s face solidified. Not only did he not hit the target, but he suffered a sudden pain.

ChapterMid();

Stone knives with a strong penetrating force, same as a fierce beast, mercilessly went into the body of the sand slave, then easily smashing people away.

Bang–

The flying sand slave fell to the ground, without breath.

Shao Xuan waved the stone knife on his hand, wiped the blood on his body, inserted it into the sand in front of him, and then looked up to the group of sand slaves on the other side.

A few of the sand slaves saw the one on the ground that did not get up after. Their faces held no surprise or fear or other expressions, and just looked on with curiosity, seeming to reassess Shao Xuan’s strength and the threat of this team.

Among the sand slaves, there were several strong men who were not as thin as the other sand slaves. A few steps away from the body, there was no one from the other sand slaves who went near. They looked at Huang Ye and the others too, then continued to do their own things. They had an unknown creature tied to a bone knife and was set on fire to roast. Because this place had limited firewood, the fire that could be ignited was not big, the fire was limited, so the meat was not thoroughly cooked. They also ate a lot, and when they bite, they brought out the guts and blood of some animals.

“Is that supposed to be a higher-level slave?” Tuo asked Shao Xuan

Shao Xuan nodded.

“You sleep first. I’ll guard with Lei.”

Because of this unfavorable situation. Shao Xuan decided that the two men had to keep watch while one slept alone, then change for the other to rest. Two people were more secure than one, as the threats of these slaves were too great.

No wonder the tribes were so terrified of slaves. They did not even take the life of their companions seriously.

Shao Xuan walked to the sand wall and crouched down. At the foot of the wall, there were some piled up sand. Shao Xuan stabbed a stone knife like a stick, and found something. The tip of the knife picked up some sand, but Shao Xuan saw a skeleton, with the first exposed was the skull.

The night breeze blew the sand away, and more and more of the skull was exposed.

Shao Xuan looked at a gap in the skull. It was like a wound from a sharp weapon, not from Shao Xuan’s knife, but this crack on the skull has existed for a long time.

Looking carefully at the injury on the skull, Shao Xuan threw the skull to Lei, “Look.”

Lei was walking while ferociously staring at the sand slaves farther, while those sand slaves also stared with eyes more ruthless. Hearing Shao Xuan’s words, he took back his line of sight, and caught the skull thrown. He was not afraid of these, so he directly took it in his hand to carefully look at.

From a young age when he joined the hunt, Lei had a good understanding of wounds caused by beasts. He was able to distinguish which was artificial and which was injured by other beasts. Seeing the long crack in the skull, Lei’s eyes flashed, and his sense of vigilance turned stronger. He no longer put all his attention on the sand slaves, but divides part of it around.

Compared with other people in the team, the Flaming Horns tribe had the least understanding of the dessert. After all, they did not have any elders to tell them things, so they could only judge from their own experience. They didn’t expect the other tribes in the team to tell them much. During this time, the first they look at were their own tribe’s people, and would not pay much attention to Shao Xuan’s side, not making an effort to narate to others.

The wound on the skull was made by a beast’s claw, which was very fast and sharp. Maybe the beast that killed this man was not very large, but the beast that was able to carry out a swift and aggressive attack must be defended against.

From the bone of the skull, it can be seen that the deceased was at least at the level of a primary totem warrior, or a little higher. In any case, they had to be more careful.

Because Qu Ce and the other people were curious, Shao Xuan threw the skull over to let them see more.

Shao Xuan and the other two rotated their watch, while the others did the same. The sand slaves also attacked them, but majority were like a temptation, one after another, and then the attack mostly picked up.

Because no more firewood was added to the fire, it was soon extinguished, and only the moonlight was in the sky. Some tribes were in warmer areas, as they were not accustomed to the cold so they were covered with two layers of animal skins.

Huang Ye and several older people looked at the team, until their eyes finally fell on the three people of the Flaming Horns tribe. As their first time to participate in such a journey for warriors, these three people was able to adapt the fastest.

During the night, in the temptation and fighting, every once in a while, there would always be noises. It could be the sound of intertwining knives, or the movement of being beaten.

There were more and more bloody sounds surrounding them. Some insects living under the sand were attracted by the blood, crawling out and sucking the flesh and blood on the sand. If there was not enough to eat, they would be the target of other organisms.

Shao Xuan always heard the sound of the camel hooves treading on the ground. Looking at it, he saw that the camel’s feet had trampled several to death, and then, it ate all these insects.

Shao Xuan did not know whether other camels were like it, but for this one, the diet was not a concern be it meat or vegetables. This was good for him since it was easy to raise.

The next day, when the sun came out, the sand slaves had left, and the dead sand slaves were left behind. Not long after, they were skeletons.
