Chapter 5: The First Warrior
“Ch-Chief! This is bad! We ran into people from another tribe outside, and they want to steal the prey we caught! It looks like a fight is about to start!”
Hearing this report, Luo Ji was immediately startled.
“Damn, I’ve only been here one day and we’re already fighting?”
“Calm down, first confirm the situation…”
“How many of them are there?”
“Where are they?”
Luo Ji asked, forcing himself to stay calm.
“Around 8 or 9 people, not far from here, just over that way…”
As he spoke, the scout, whom Luo Ji had already appointed, quickly pointed in a direction.
Luo Ji’s heart tightened upon hearing this answer.
Originally, according to his plan, if the distance was still quite far, he would temporarily retreat, develop cautiously for a while.
And then, after arming his tribal warriors with stone spears and stone axes, he would seek revenge and fight fiercely.
But listening to the scout’s report now, that was clearly impossible.
If they retreated, and the barbarians from the other tribe pursued them over the short distance, this Mirror Lake area would be exposed.
At that time, his newly chosen settlement would definitely be ruined.
From any perspective, this was a result he could not accept.
“My Ruler talent can increase the combat power of my army by 20%.”
“Plus these two weapons, although 2 stars in ‘Bravery’ feels a bit low, I can at least put up a fight in the early stage, right?!”
With this thought, Luo Ji felt a surge of recklessness.
He looked down at the stone spear and stone axe he had just made, then stuffed the stone axe into the scout’s hand.
Immediately after, he brandished the stone spear in his hand and shouted loudly.
“The eldery, women, and children, hide first! Men, follow me!”
In Luo Ji’s tribe, besides the four barbarian warriors who were very strong and looked capable of fighting.
Excluding the elderly and children, the other men were generally thin or average in physique.
But at this moment, perhaps because Luo Ji’s ‘Leadership’ ability was working, the four men who had stayed by Mirror Lake to help clear the camp showed no fear or hesitation!
Seeing this reaction from his tribal people, Luo Ji, who had been feeling a bit uncertain, was also encouraged.
The scout led the way, while the 5 men, including Luo Ji himself, followed with killing intent, clearly prepared for a fight.
In his original world, Luo Ji had over 20 years of life experience, but fighting and killing were clearly on different levels.
To say he wasn’t nervous at all would definitely be a lie.
The hand holding the stone spear was gripping so hard that his knuckles had turned white, and his mind was completely a mess.
He didn’t even know what he was thinking.
After following the scout and rushing for a while, a fierce fighting sound suddenly reached their ears.
They saw that in a patch of woods ahead, the four barbarian warriors from their tribe were swinging the large wooden clubs in their hands, desperately defending the prey they had caught.
Each of them was basically wounded, and one was already covered in blood, but they refused to retreat even half a step!
Their thinking was simple, since their tribe has 34 people this one roe deer clearly wasn’t even enough for themselves to eat.
In this situation, if the prey was stolen again, the elderly, women, and children in the tribe would all go hungry.
Therefore, they couldn’t give up the prey.
With this thought, they had stubbornly held on until now despite being completely outnumbered.
Seeing this scene, Luo Ji also felt a surge of blood.
Regardless of the consequences, he rushed forward with a roar.
“We’re here! Brothers, don’t panic! Kill them for me!!”
Along with this roar, the stone spear in Luo Ji’s hand directly thrust towards the barbarian closest to him.
The opponent was very strong and clearly also a warrior, but Luo Ji’s attack came suddenly, and the stone spear was long enough.
By the time the opponent reacted, he was immediately struck square by the stone spear.
Although it didn’t pierce him all the way through, it still drew blood from that barbarian on the spot.
A panicked shout came from that barbarian’s mouth, he was clearly frightened by this unseen weapon.
In contrast, seeing their chief repel an enemy warrior with one blow, their own morale immediately soared!
“Kill them! Kill them!!”
Although they didn’t know what Luo Ji was shouting, they all followed suit and roared along.
Their fierce demeanor temporarily intimidated the barbarians on the other side.
It was at this moment that the system’s notification sound rang out in Luo Ji’s mind…
[System notification: Congratulations to player ‘Luo Ji’ for learning the skill ‘Inspire Morale’.]
The system’s notification didn’t make Luo Ji react, it was even questionable whether he heard it at all.
Because at this moment, his attention was completely focused on the battle in front of him!
Completely different from the club, the edges of this stone spear were also uneven and quite sharp.
When swung wildly, anyone who was scratched by it would get several wounds.
Taking advantage of this weapon’s superiority, Luo Ji was incredibly brave for a while.
But although these barbarians had little culture and were very backward in knowledge, it didn’t mean they were stupid.
Although Luo Ji swung that single stone spear fiercely, after the fighting time grew longer, they quickly discovered the flaw in Luo Ji’s lack of combat experience.
Besides the initial surprise attack, his other attacks, while drawing blood, actually caused wounds that were not deep at all, just enough to scrape the skin or leave a cut.
These were minor injuries to them.
The opponents could see it, and his own people could also see it.
However, their loyalty to Luo Ji, their chief, was very high, so naturally, they wouldn’t have any disrespectful thoughts.
The scout who led them was also clever.
He knew that the stone axe wouldn’t be used to its full potential in his hands.
Seizing an opportunity, he quickly handed the weapon to the tribe’s first warrior.
Taking the stone axe and weighing it, the barbarian warrior’s eyes immediately lit up.
No further explanation was needed.
As the tribe’s first warrior, his combat talent was quite high.
As soon as the stone axe was in his hands, he knew how to use this thing.
“Kill! Kill them!!”
Having been suppressed for so long, they finally had a chance to fight back.
Plus, these barbarians had stolen their tribe’s food before.
This was the perfect opportunity to settle both old and new grudges!
Seeing the barbarian warrior swinging the stone axe and charging over, the barbarian from the enemy tribe also reacted quickly, immediately raising the club in his hand to block.
The two weapons instantly clashed.
The barbarian warrior’s strength was astonishing.
At that moment, there was a ‘crack’ sound, and the club in the opponent’s hand actually broke into two pieces on the spot!
Many of the barbarians who saw this scene were shocked by the brutal killing power of the stone axe.
Their tribe’s barbarian warrior was also full of wild joy, but his attack didn’t stop.
After chopping the opponent’s club with an axe, he immediately followed up with a kick, instantly knocking the opponent to the ground.
Then, without stopping, he gripped the axe handle with both hands, lifted the axe and brought it down, delivering a fierce blow directly onto that barbarian’s head.
Accompanied by a dull thud, blood splattered.
As expected of their tribe’s first warrior, the stone axe was simply a great weapon of destruction in his hands.
Luo Ji clearly saw that barbarian’s head was severely injured, almost smashed!
It was likely he had no chance of surviving.
If Luo Ji, swinging the stone spear, could only be described as having an astonishing presence, then their tribe’s first warrior was truly a wolf entering a flock of sheep!
