Elder Li's plan, negotiations, killed by crazy chameleons

When elders inside the room heard what this chameleon shouted, they couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise.

No one except elder Li knew that this would happen.

The truth was, Li Jing, didn't get an order from tribe leader to steal intelligence fruits. It was all his plan! He wanted her to at least get noticed by the guards. This way, he could start a war between leopards and chameleons again.

He decided a long time ago that he won't let this tribe stay in its current state. Even if there was a need to sacrifice part of the tribe, it must get back to fighting.

From that moment, he patiently waited for an occasion to create a fight between the chameleon tribe and any other tribe that is close to them and similar in strength.

A year passed since he decided to do it like this and then he heard a rumour that gorilla tribe spread intentionally that leopard tribe stole a few of their fruits.

When he heard about it, he immediately contacted their tribe and asked what would they give him if he brought those fruits back.

After striking a deal, no matter what the outcome of this plan was, elder Li would always be a winner. What he didn't expect was that they would notice Li Jing and she will get away with some fruits.

Another surprise was that they encountered a noble human! It was like heavens were supporting his plans. He was even more sure that his decision was right.

When Leopard tribe heard that there was a thief who can turn invisible, they knew who was the one to steal from them. Every elder in their tribe remembered the war between their tribes.

Even though they won, they lost a lot too. If not for their enemies leader death, they would have probably needed to sacrifice even more to win this fight.

They were more confident now since their tribe thrived and their enemies didn't make any progress since their fight.

"It seems they won't let go of the past until we annihilate them!"

Leader of the leopard tribe decided that it was time to end this war once and for all. Their tribe showed mercy back then, and it seemed that it was a wrong decision.

With the plan already in mind, he gathered all of the people here, send one person to bring this news back to their tribe and decided to attack the chameleon tribe immediately.

"Mhm, gather every woman and child under 14 at my house! Every man must be ready to fight!"

Hearing about leopard tribe attacking them, leader Liu gave orders to elders and decided to ask for the reason for their attack.

All he knew about Li Jing mission was that she stumbled upon their tribe and was attacked by them. Then Thomas appeared and saved her. He didn't get any information about intelligence fruits, so he was surprised that leopard tribe would attack them because of this.

In his opinion, they wanted to scare them and then negotiate. He appeared on the entrance of his tribe where leopards were already waiting.

"Mhm, what brought you here? What happened a few days ago was a misunderstanding, but we are willing to recompensate for what one of us did."

"Hahaha, small misunderstanding? We came here to annihilate your tribe. It seems that you won't let go of the past and won't stop causing problems."

Hearing what the Leopards tribe leader said, leader Liu frowned. Shouldn't he already stop acting and say how much they want as compensation?

Meanwhile, Thomas was cultivating inside his room when he heard knocking.

*knock knock*

"Come in."

Li Jing rushed inside and started shouting at him.

"How can you cultivate when there is a war going on outside?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Leopard tribe is attacking us, everyone under 14 needs to go to leader's house."

When Thomas heard about leopards, he showed a horrified expression.

If there is one or two of them, then he can deal with them using his identity. But even thinking about his time as a pet sends shivers down his spine.

So what if nothing traumatic happened to him? Being a pet alone is a bad experience! And there will be a punishment waiting for him if they find him here!

He didn't ask any more questions and just followed behind Li Jing.

The leader's house was almost full of people.

When they were already inside, Thomas heard Luke talking again.

'Do you see the doors at the end of this room? I have a feeling that there is the thing that brought us here.'

'Since when can you sense where is something that can be useful?'

'I spent my whole life searching for a host with good luck. After some time, I started to sense where luck is gathering. It only works if there is something important for you, something that you shouldn't miss or else your progress will slow down.'

'What if I miss something so important?'

'Then you will need to wait for a very long time to get something similar. It means that as long as I can sense it, you can't miss it, or your journey will get a lot tougher.'

'So you want to tell me that I need to sneak inside without anyone noticing? There are at least a few hundred chameleons. There is no way I can do it!'

'Host, you need to believe in yourself! Didn't you hear what I told you? If you can't get it, your journey will get a lot tougher. The reason I can sense it is that there will be a great danger for the current you in the future! If you don't take this chance, you probably won't be able to survive even with your luck stat.'

Hearing how serious the whole situation is, Thomas decided.

'If I will die sooner or later, then it's better to be killed by a bunch of crazy chameleons than rather die alone somewhere where no one will find me. Now let's see whether this luck stat is useful.'
