Chapter 469: Heavy Losses

"What are you really saying?"

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe could not help but shout in confusion.

He found the words absurd.

Colin Planet was attacked by the Black Tiger Tribe?

All the strong fighters might have been killed or captured, and the treasure vault was emptied?

Could this be possible?

Absolutely not.

Since the founding of the Spirit Heart Tribe, even during their weakest times and in the worst situations, they had only faced enemies that pressed as far as their home, Colin Planet.

But the Spirit Heart Tribe always managed to hold their stronghold by gathering their forces and seeking help from other tribes, successfully surviving until allies came to support them.

In fact, the tribe’s stronghold had never been breached.

Besides, how could the Black Tiger Tribe suddenly attack Colin Planet?

The Spirit Heart Tribe had no previous conflicts or interactions with the Black Tiger Tribe.

Even if the Black Tiger Tribe received news immediately, it had only been one or two months since the alliance with the Swift Tribe was formed. With their flying treasures, the Black Tiger Tribe could not possibly reach Colin Planet in that time.

"Leader… it’s true! If you don’t believe it, you can contact Lord Milton or other strong fighters. We searched the entire stronghold and found no trace of them."

The backup personnel explained, "Some guards of the treasure vault even witnessed a group of strong fighters heavily injured and then captured by the enemy."

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe furrowed his brow.

He still could not believe such a possibility.

But the backup personnel spoke with such certainty that he had no choice but to listen.

Could it be that this backup personnel had gone mad?

After hesitating for a moment, he quickly ended the call, infused energy into the communication stone, and began to contact Milton.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe’s heart gradually sank.

After half a minute, he switched to contacting other strong fighters.

Then he tried the third, fourth, and fifth…

Each one he contacted responded with silence.

This left his face looking extremely grim.

Could it be true that powerful beings from the Black Tiger Tribe had invaded their stronghold, taking the Spirit Heart Tribe’s treasure vault and capturing or killing all their strong fighters, including Milton?

What on earth was happening?

Buzz, buzz, buzz…

Just as he was about to inquire further with the backup personnel, his communicator vibrated gently.

He eagerly used his perception ability to check.

His face grew increasingly grim.

It was not a strong fighter he had contacted, but a backup personnel from the life planet, Molo Planet, sending a communication request.

Could Molo Planet have been attacked too?

Molo Planet was the second-largest planet of the Spirit Heart Tribe, besides Colin Planet.

There was a vast mid-grade immortal mine on that planet.

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe hesitated to answer the communication.

After a few seconds, energy finally flowed into the communication stone.

"Leader, bad news…"

As soon as the backup personnel spoke, the Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe’s mood plunged into despair again.

"The treasure vault was invaded by powerful beings from the Black Tiger Tribe, and Lord Xili and the others cannot be reached."

"Again with the Black Tiger Tribe? How could it be the Black Tiger Tribe again?"

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe felt like he was going crazy.

What could the scattered Black Tiger Tribe possibly use to attack the Spirit Heart Tribe?

Even in the already unified blood-colored planet, the strongest fighters that Nika’s tribe could command from the Black Tiger Tribe were only a few hundred.

Even if all of them gathered together, Colin Planet had defenses capable of mounting resistance.

After all, the defenses of their stronghold were not weak, and there was Milton, a level 120 strong fighter.

Even if they couldn’t win, they could certainly hold out for some time with their various defenses.

Yet, astonishingly, all the strong fighters of the Spirit Heart Tribe on both Colin Planet and Molo Planet could not withstand an attack.

There was no time for them to even call for help.

Instead, it was some level ninety strong fighters reporting to him about being attacked by powerful beings from the Black Tiger Tribe.

Could it be that pirate group from the Black Tiger Tribe?

But even so, that elusive pirate group that had once caused immense headaches for the Swift Tribe, leaving them with heavy losses—

Logically speaking, Milton’s Perception Ability should have sensed their presence!

The powerful Perception Ability of the Spirit Heart Tribe was precisely why they had allied with the Swift Tribe.

The aim was to use their powerful Perception Ability to deal with that Black Tiger Tribe pirate group.

"Did you see any guards from the Black Tiger Tribe?"

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe struggled to calm himself.

"Yes, Leader, I did."

The backup personnel hurriedly explained, "When they attacked the treasure vault, I was nearby. I arrived just in time to see them break into the treasure vault."

"How many Black Tiger Tribe fighters were there?"

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe asked.

"Approximately one thousand, among them more than one hundred were strong fighters, the strongest at level 110."

The backup personnel recalled, "The rest are all over ninety. Besides that, there are over a hundred fighters from other tribes, with several dozen being strong fighters."

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe immediately gritted his teeth.

He was certain it was that Black Tiger Tribe pirate group.

"When did they attack the treasure vault?"

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe pressed for more information.

"About half an hour ago!"

The backup personnel answered without thinking.

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe swiftly ended the communication and contacted the previous backup personnel to ask about the time of the attack on the treasure vault.

The answer left him dumbfounded.

Half an hour ago.

The timing of both was extremely close.

This meant the Black Tiger Tribe pirate group split into two, launching attacks on Colin Planet and Molo Planet.

"Damn the Black Tiger Tribe, damn the Nika tribe!"

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe felt like crying without tears.

He was basically certain that Colin Planet and Molo Planet had indeed been attacked by the Black Tiger Tribe pirate group.

Moreover, the strong fighters of the Spirit Heart Tribe on both planets had nearly all been wiped out.

This loss was undoubtedly the greatest in the history of the Spirit Heart Tribe.

Molo Planet was slightly better off; the treasure vault had been emptied, suffering a massive loss of mid-grade immortal mines.

The key issue was the treasure vault on Colin Planet, which held all the resources and treasures accumulated by the Spirit Heart Tribe.

Being emptied was a heavy loss that no one in the Spirit Heart Tribe could accept.

It would take no less than tens of thousands of years to recover.

On both planets, over forty strong fighters had been killed, which would also severely impact the Top-tier Combat Power of the Spirit Heart Tribe.

The first thought that crossed the Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe’s mind was to lead his forces back to Colin Planet to see if he could find the Black Tiger Tribe pirate group and recover some losses.

But then he realized that with the speed of the flying treasure, it would take at least seven to eight days to reach Colin Planet.

That Black Tiger Tribe pirate group wouldn’t be foolish enough to wait there.

Buzz, buzz, buzz…

Just as he was wracking his brain on what to do, the communication stone vibrated again.

His face went pale.

Could it be that other life planets had also been attacked by the Black Tiger Tribe pirate group at the same time?

If that were true, he would be furious enough to explode on the spot.

He hadn’t even reaped the benefits of allying with the Swift Tribe before suffering the most painful loss in the history of the Spirit Heart Tribe.

This outcome was beyond anything he could have anticipated.

Gritting his teeth, he directed his Perception Ability into the communication stone.

He felt a surge of surprise.

The one contacting him was not a backup personnel from another life planet, but the Emperor of the Swift Tribe.

Could it be that the territory of the Swift Tribe had also been attacked?

If that were the case, how many routes had the Black Tiger Tribe pirate group divided into?

The Leader of the Spirit Heart Tribe suddenly felt deceived; when the Swift Tribe sought to ally with the Spirit Heart Tribe, their introduction of the Black Tiger Tribe pirate group had not portrayed them as this powerful.
