Wa Ming’s eyes widened, incredulous as he asked, “What do we do now?”
“Judging by the sound, it’s very close to us. Seems like we won’t be able to avoid it,” Da Gua said with a serious expression.
Ye Jiu blinked her grey eyes, gripping her stone knives tightly, and suggested, “We can hide in the trees. That’s what we did last time.”
“Quickly do as she says. Climb up the trees right now.” Wa Ming shouted without hesitation.
“Yes.” The other Totem Warriors immediately responded.
They all bit their stone knives in their mouths and started climbing the nearest trees.
“Hurry up!” Wa Ming urged.
“Shh!” Ye Jiu made a silencing gesture and said softly, “Don’t make too much noise, or it will get provoked.”
Wa Ming immediately closed his mouth, feeling a bit scared when he thought about how he had just been shouting at the top of his lungs.
“Wa Ming, remember to take some stones with you when you go up,” Da Gua reminded.
“Got it.” Wa Ming picked up several stones around him and put them in his Animal Hide Bag, then started climbing up the tree.
*Rustle rustle…*
*Yiiii….* The Six Eyed Red Bird’s calls were getting louder, and the sound of its running was also getting louder, as if it would charge out at any moment.
“Hurry up. It’s about to move.” Ye Jiu urged.
Da Gua scanned the surroundings, checking if the other Totem Warriors had all climbed up.
He frowned, looking to the left, and shouted, “Shan Xiong, move faster! You’re the only one left!”
Shan Xiong’s body was larger, he was not a Speed Type Totem Warrior, and relied mostly on his Strength. Because of this, his tree-climbing speed was much slower than the rest. Everyone else had already climbed to the top of the trees but not him
When scaling up the tree, Shan Xiong did look a bit like a snail. He shouted helplessly, “I’m already going as fast as I can…”
Ye Jiu frowned, looking very worried. She dashed over to Shan Xiong in three quick steps. She vigilantly looked around and shouted, “Da Gua, you go up first, leave this to me.”
“No. I promised Team Leader Cang Shi that I would bring all of you back safely,” Da Gua also came to Shan Xiong’s side.
*Crack! Crack…* *Yiiii…*
*Boom!* A Six Eyed Red Bird jumped out from a large bush, its size much larger than Ye Jiu had expected.
Its feathers were all black and red, and the six eyes on its head looked particularly eerie. It had a pair of long and sturdy claws that seemed capable of easily tearing anything apart, and a sharp and pointed beak.
*Yiiiii…* The Six Eyed Red Bird kept crying, its six eyes rotating separately, constantly staring in all directions.
“Damn. If we’re caught, almost all of our next moves will be seen through,” Ye Jiu said in a deep voice.
Seeing the Six Eyed Red Bird’s eyes constantly looking in their direction, Da Gua crouched down, preparing to face its attack.
“I’ve made it up, you guys just hurry up and go!” Shan Xiong shouted in a hushed voice.
*Thump thump thump.*
His shout enraged the Six Eyed Red Bird, and it roared as it charged over. It was terrifyingly fast.
*Whoosh! Bang!* There was a whistling sound as a stone hit the Six Eyed Red Bird’s head hard. It was a strong enough impact to cause it to stop in its tracks and shake its head to recover.
“Now’s your chance. Hurry up.” Wa Ming shouted.
He kept tossing a stone in his hand, ready to throw it at the Six Eyed Red Bird again. It had to be said that Wa Ming was amazingly accurate at stone throwing, basically the best in the Tribe.
With his Totem Mark activated, the force of each stone was not to be underestimated. Not to mention it was being thrown from above. This was enough to cause the bird some pain.
*Bang!*
“Ye Jiu, quickly climb up the tree.” Da Gua also threw his stone spear at the Six Eyed Red Bird.
Taking advantage of this aerial attack, he quickly climbed up the tree. In the blink of an eye, he had reached the middle position.
Ye Jiu also reacted quickly. With a flip of her grey hair, she had already climbed up.
The Six Eyed Red Bird kept pacing around on the spot, its long neck constantly looking up.
*Yiiiiiii!* It kept making piercing sounds as it constantly stomped on the ground. It looked very strange, as if it was calling for something.
“What’s it doing? Something’s strange.” Wa Ming asked curiously.
Da Gua frowned and worriedly said, “It looks like… it’s calling for its companions!?”
Ye Jiu’s expression looked even more solemn than before, and she said in a deep voice, “That’s right. It’s calling for its companions.”
“What!?” Wa Ming’s eyes widened.
“Six Eyed Red Birds are a Collective Type of Ferocious Beast. If one appears, there might be several nearby…” Ye Jiu explained.
Wa Ming slapped his forehead and frowned, “Damn it! What do we do now? If its companions come, we won’t be able to get back.”
“Wa Ming, keep throwing stones, stop it from making any more noise. We need to stall it for now!” Da Gua shouted.
“Yes. Right now, we need to stop it from making any more noise.” Ye Jiu agreed.
“Alright, leave it to me.” Wa Ming gripped the stones tightly in his hand.
He narrowed his eyes, carefully watching the Six Eyed Red Bird on the ground, and threw a stone with all his might.
*Bang!* The stone hit the Six Eyed Red Bird’s head again. It instantly stopped its cries for its companions, replaced by cries of pain and anguish.
Ye Jiu rotated her grey eyes and said in a dire tone, “Seems like we have no choice. We can only take it down, then quickly return to the Tribe with our hunted prey.”
“Didn’t you say it’s extremely fast? How do we take it down?” Da Gua spread his hands and continued, “What’s more we can’t fight it if we’re not standing on the ground.”
“Yeah, face to face, we’re not nearly as fast as it is,” Wa Ming nodded and continued, “You saw how it ran just now. I believe you understand this kind of Ferocious Beast better than we do.”
“Look, it’s about to cry for help again.” Shou Ya pointed repeatedly at the Six Eyed Red Bird.
“Damn it!” Wa Ming threw the second stone. Now, he only had two stones left in his hand.
Ye Jiu tied back her scattered grey hair with a vine and coldly said. “Right now there’s only one way.”
“What way?” Da Gua and Wa Ming asked in unison.
