Chapter 287 - The Multiple Gifts from the Raider

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

One by one, the comrades-in-arms around Turaru lost their fighting ability and fell down from the giant spiders. He, who was originally smug and thought that they had gained invincible power, gradually gained a sense of unspeakable setback and anxiety.

Holding a slender and flexible wooden stick in his hand, he screamed a futile roar as he waved it around to his left and right. Even though he appeared to be infinitely strong, it was already difficult for him to turn the situation around.

However, at this time, when Turaru, who had become desperate, dodged away from the fierce spear thrust by his opponent, he suddenly realized that an expressionless but majestic figure was watching him quietly while leaning on the tribal totem pole in front of the giant tree house enshrining the tribal book of history.

Time seemed to have frozen at once. An image of how the young aborigine warrior kneeling in front of that person giving off a lofty spirit and determination not long ago appeared in his mind. At that instant, all reasons and all barriers of restraint disintegrated at once.

“I’m going to pull out the thickest giant tree in the jungle and kill the fiercest beast with my bare hands… I’ll let everyone in Tudenan know your unpredictable power, Great Raider!” Turaru’s howl resounded through the sky of the entire Tudenan. At the same time, his body became dried and shrank at a speed so rapid that it was even visible to the naked eye. Each of his left and right feet gave birth to a large rhizome that burst through his leather shoes and extended into the soil.

At this time, the rhizomes from the sharp and fine thorns was no longer an image but a substantial thing. After piercing into the soil, they spread out and transformed to become sharp wood within a radius of about 100 meters around Turaru. Abruptly, they pierced out from the ground and penetrated into the bodies of all the warriors and partners in the training exercise, regardless of enemy or ally, and turned all the creatures in the attack range into dried-up bodies.

When the Tudenan people, who were watching the training exercise, saw that their own tribal member could actually cast such a terrifying spell, other than a few chief warriors who could maintain their composure, the rest of them exclaimed loudly in surprise.

However, Zhang Lisheng by the side, who had fought many times with the forest spiritual monsters before, knew that even though the trick cast by Turaru appeared to be terrifying, it was actually a technique that would die together with the enemy. If they were in a real battle now, in the face of a young warrior who had temporarily transformed into a plant, the remaining enemies only needed to get away and throw a torch to turn it into ashes effortlessly.

However, it was only a training exercise right now and Turaru had already managed to break the enemy’s formation.

“Stop!” Seizing this opportunity where everyone was in a daze, Zhang Lisheng suddenly shouted loudly and hurriedly walked towards the warriors carrying out the training exercise. Facing towards Turaru, he said, “Turaru, even though you’ve managed to break your enemy’s formation, the spell that you cast have already gone beyond the range of a training exercise. Not only that, you’ve even transformed to become a living target so you’ve lost this time.”

Turaru, whose feet had transformed to become roots and was unable to move now, had absorbed the blood essence of several dozens of giant millispiders and Tudenan warriors and managed to transform to become high in spirits again as he lied down on his partner that was unable to move. Full of regrets, he replied, “Great Raider, even though I didn’t deliberately cast the horrifying technique just now, but the fact that I’ve used it in the training exercise…”

“Turaru, having casualties is unavoidable in a training exercise. Adding on to the fact that you’ve just acquired the ability to cast spells, it’s also reasonable that you haven’t mastered its power properly yet. For this reason, I’ll let it go this time. However, if there’s a second time, I’ll surely usurp all your abilities and kill you. Do you understand?” Zhang Lisheng interrupted his devout believer’s words and made it clear to him.

“Yes, Great Raider!” Turaru replied in fear. When he was speaking, a fat chore chief who had two feathers on his head quietly ran up to Tudenan’s headman with an ecstatic expression and whispered a few words.

Immediately, without delay, Tugra rushed up to the tribal Raider and reported with joy, “Raider, there’s another warrior who is willing to show the prowess of your ‘gift ceremony’!”

Zhang Lisheng was stunned but pretended to be calm as he said with a smile, “Is that so?”

However, deep inside his heart, he felt relieved right away.

The second ‘Super Hellfireman’ who woke up was called Adura. He obtained the magical power of gathering water vapor that could nourish all things. If Tudenan was a farming tribe, this power would undoubtedly be very important but it could only be used as a semi-finished ‘healing spell’ on a battlefield. It was much weaker compared to Turaru’s ability that could gather the warriors’ strength and vitality.

Fortunately, when there was a second one, there would also be a third one. The third warrior who woke up, Uqiru, could stimulate the deep underground magma to flow out of the crust. This amazing spell that could add on fire damage onto the weapons in the hands of Tudenan people was very practical, it could also kind of make up for the shortcomings of Adura.

Just like this, the nine Tudenan young warriors, who were successfully transplanted with Zhang Lisheng’s Gold Core fragments, woke up one by one. Each of them transformed to become the combination of a powerful caster and a fierce warrior that the ordinary indigenous warrior could not match, becoming the new hero of the Hellfire tribe who had always traditionally upheld the use of force.

When these beneficiaries of Zhang Lisheng’s so-called “Super Hellfireman Plan” rose rapidly, it also caused the veteran chief warriors who originally had a lofty position in Tudenan to be violently shaken.

Finally, on the day when the young man decided to leave Tudenan and return to the island’s human gathering place, other than Tugra and Tumu, Nunani, the earliest person appointed as the chief of 1000 warriors who had three feathers on his head, suddenly came to see him, asking Zhang Lisheng to allow him to undergo the ‘gift ceremony’.

“No matter whether it is my own courage or the role of the tribal army, the fact that I can’t compete with a few young fighters but just relying on my old age alone disgusts me to the point I’m unable to eat and sleep.”

This chief warrior, who was so rash and straightforward that he was deceived by the Tudenan headman, who was in a disadvantageous position last time, sprawled on the ground and muttered painfully, ” Great Raider! I’m not questioning your decision! It’s just that no matter whether it’s a strong body or a faithful belief in you, I won’t lose to any young warrior in Tudenan. That’s why I hope that you can also grant me an opportunity of the ‘gift ceremony’ for veterans like me. Even if we die at the ceremony, we are willing to do so. ”

Now that he longer had any Gold Core fragments in his hands, of course, Zhang Lisheng could not simply agree to Nunani’s request. However, he also did not want to rashly reject the first three-feathered warrior who was willing to accept the “gift ceremony”.

After pondering about it, the young man sat on the animal skin and said in a pretentious manner, “Nunani, since I’m willing to give the young warriors who are in a low position to cast spells, how could I possibly forget the tribal pillars like you? However, the ‘gift ceremony’ is the ability that I have just only mastered so even if I cooperate it with many magical abilities, the chance of success is only about 20%. I can’t use it on three-feathered chiefs like you. It’s better for us to wait till my ability has become stronger and gain a greater chance of success in the ‘ceremony’ before I cast the ability on you. On top of that, don’t think of yourself as old at all. If you’ve really succeeded in accepting this ‘gift ceremony’, your life span will be increased and it’d not be a problem for you to live for a few centuries. For this reason, you only need to wait patiently.”

“Obtaining the ability to cast spells can also increase my life span?” Nunani, who was kneeling on the ground, was shocked and blurted out.

“That’s right! A long life is also one of my gifts to the devotees,” Zhang Lisheng said in a distant tone. “You may retreat now.”

“Yes!” After standing up and sneaking a glance at the Raider to study him with an eager and amazed gaze, Nunani slowly retreated.

Upon seeing his disappearing back, the Tudenan headman, who was kneeling by the side from the very beginning, could not help but whisper, “Great Raider… Y-Your ‘gift ceremony’…”

“Are you tempted as well now that you heard that your life span can also be increased by several times?” Zhang Lisheng smiled and interrupted the Tudenan headman’s hawing words.

Tugra buried his head under the long fine hair of the animal skin and did not dare to say any words but his intention was very obvious. Due to the hard jungle life and shallow mind, an ordinary Hellfire man might not yearn much for their lives but to the great chiefs and headmen in the tribe, it was certainly a beautiful thing to live longer, let alone a few centuries of life.
