Chapter 355: 288: The Fallen Ones Pledge Loyalty! The Mad Jia Peiran!_1
With teeth clenched, Freya said, “Hydrophobia is a fatal epidemic for us of the Wolf Tribe. Once bitten by a Hyena Man infected with hydrophobia, even a tiny wound can lead to immediate infection.”
“For our Wolf Tribe, this epidemic is a terrifying disease that could wipe us out!”
“How is that possible…” Brett said in surprise, “I’ve never heard of this…”
“Hmph!”
Freya snorted coldly, “Because this matter is a tightly guarded secret of the Empire. Once a Wolf Tribe or any of its subordinate races is discovered with hydrophobia, there is only one consequence for them…”
“What consequence?”
“Annihilation of the entire tribe!” Freya said, looking pitifully in the direction of the departing Hyena Men, “Tusks is rushing back with only one goal in mind, and that is to kill all members of his tribe infected with hydrophobia.”
“Otherwise, if the hydrophobia were to spread, it would be a massive epidemic that could affect the entire Wilderness!”
“At that point, not to mention their Earth Hyena Clan, even Hyena Men, Dogmen, and Jackal Werewolves could face being wiped out by the Empire!”
“Even, the entire Wilderness of the fantastical battlefield could potentially be abandoned.”
With an intake of cold breath, Brett said, “Then, what should we do…”
“Do not rush.”
Freya said, “The fatality rate of hydrophobia is very high, but it is also easy to contain its spread. We just need to completely kill those of our tribe who are infected and then burn their bodies with fire.”
“It can only be transmitted through blood. As long as we eliminate all members of our tribe infected with hydrophobia, that will suffice.”
“Our current priority is to kill that damned human!”
As she spoke, the scene she had just experienced flashed before Freya’s eyes again, her pretty face turning red with anger as she bit out, “I must kill that man with my own hands!”
Immediately, Brett said, “Your Highness, Brett is willing to follow in your footsteps!”
“Very well.”
Freya nodded slightly and turned to another Lizard-man, “Geoffrey, thank you for your assistance this time. May I know if you can rally the Professionists of your tribe to help me hunt down the human who just escaped?”
Zheng Cheng’s strength could kill Kayal instantly and easily crush her, and his Illusion Technique was unpredictable; she was no match for him.
To kill this man, she could only seek help from other races.
The Lizard-man Geoffrey immediately said, “Rest assured, Princess Freya, serving you is an honor for our Lizard-man tribe.”
“Additionally, the human capable of controlling the vines has been cornered in the Valley, unable to escape. I will assemble some of our tribe members right away.”
Having said that, he took out a horn covered with strange patterns and began to blow it.
“Woo woo woo~~”
A deep and melodious horn sounded, spreading rapidly.
At that moment, several dark figures were closing in on the trio.
“Stop!”
Brett immediately stepped in front of Freya. The newcomers were surprisingly five individuals very similar to the Hyena Men but vastly different.
Zhao Gou!
Freya frowned, “The Reincarnators from humanity, from the Earth Hyena Clan?”
Zhao Gou said respectfully, “Your Highness Freya, we were indeed humans before, but we have reincarnated as Hyena Men. Moreover, we are all Professionists, willing to serve you in any way we can!”
The five of them had been following the Hyena Men’s large force, and after the force left in a hurry, Zhao Gou felt his chance had finally arrived.
To curry favor with the princess of the Wolf Tribe was far better than mixing in with the Earth Hyena Clan.
Her Highness Freya watched the five men with a piercing gaze, and their expressions immediately grew tense.
No one knew what the great beauty of the Wolf Tribe was thinking, especially the leader, Zhao Gou.
Grinding his teeth, Zhao Gou said, “Your Highness Freya, we have already betrayed the Human Race, we are what they call ‘Fallen Ones’, and we can never return to Blue Star.”
“We are willing to pledge our undying loyalty to the Wolf Tribesmen…”
At that moment, Geoffrey also came over, whispering, “Your Highness, our tribe also has Human traitors, especially one named ‘Jia Peiran’. Although not very powerful, he is quite clever.”
“It was largely thanks to him that we were able to corner that Human controlling the tree…”
A glint flickered in Freya’s eyes as she said, “Bring that Reincarnator named Jia Peiran to me. As long as we can capture that sub-dragon Knight, I will grant him the reward he deserves!”
“And you…” she said, turning once more to Zhao Gou and his companions, “I also accept your loyalty. Kill that Human sub-dragon Knight, and I might even take you back to the Wolf Kingdom!”
Zhao Gou and the others’ eyes lit up with fervor as they knelt in unison: “Thank you, Your Highness Freya!”
…
Outside the Valley in Splendid Forest.
A horde of Lizard-men, Jackal Werewolves, and Hyena Men were continuously charging into the valley; however, there stood a dozen or so large treants, each around ten meters tall, on the valley’s outskirts.
They manipulated a vast number of vines and roots like countless pythons, blocking many Lizard-men and Jackal Werewolves outside, seizing and crushing them to death.
Other treants positioned further back in the coniferous forest shot out dense needles like arrows, easily piercing through the bodies of many Lizard-men and Jackal Werewolves.
The outskirts of the valley were littered with the corpses of Lizard-men, Jackal Werewolves, and Hyena Men, their blood forming rivers!
At the forefront of the Lizard-men and Jackal Werewolves stood several human figures, with a frenzied Jia Peiran leading them.
“Hahahaha, charge! Charge in there!”
His body covered in blood, he was ordering a relentless charge of Lizard-men and Jackal Werewolves.
At this moment, several Lizard-men approached him.
“Jia Peiran! The sulphur, resin, and a large amount of kindling you asked to be gathered are ready.”
A murderous look flashed in Jia Peiran’s eyes: “Set fire! Burn to death everyone inside!”
“Jia Peiran!”
Suddenly, a roar of anger erupted as two Human Professionists, captured by the Lizard-men, struggled and shouted:
“What are you doing! Our tribespeople are in that valley, you are part of the Human Race, how can you help them…”
“The Human Race? Hahaha…”
As if hearing something hilarious, Jia Peiran burst into laughter: “I’m no longer part of the Human Race! Now, I’m a Lizard-man! Wahahaha…”
Laughing uproariously, he pounced on one of them, opening his mouth wide and ripping a large chunk of flesh from the man’s neck.
“Gurgling… arggh…”
The young man trembled all over, his neck gushing blood, as Jia Peiran laughed wildly: “Hahaha, so thrilling! It’s simply too thrilling!”
He then grabbed a female student captive beside him, ignoring her struggles and pleas for mercy, and with a fierce swipe, he tore the clothes from her body, pressing her down beneath him.
Regardless of the many others around him, he began his assault.
“Human women are indeed more tender… Set fire! Drive out everyone in the valley!”
“Cui Xiabing! I want her, I want Cui Xiabing from Imperial Capital University!”
“Set fire!!!”
“Hahahaha~”
