Chapter 278: Need a Madman
Yale nodded and said, "I think Brother Hai is right. Hatred can sometimes be an underestimated force. If we can utilize this power well, it may not be impossible for us to defeat the Bullfighting Tribe."
At this moment, Mendez also recovered and nodded, "Moreover, we have the advantage of surprise this time. No one would expect that after our recent defeat, we would dare to counterattack. Isn't it the Bullfighting Tribe that took advantage of this surprise to capture our old camp?"
Wells frowned and said, "All of this makes sense, but the problem is that our clan's Elder Supreme is injured, and he is the only one. It might be difficult for him to deal with the Elder Supreme of the Bullfighting Tribe. Also, didn’t the Bullfighting Tribe hire a ninth-level expert from the human race?"
With Wells' words, everyone fell silent. No matter how one looked at it, the existence of a ninth-level expert was a huge burden in their hearts. If they really wanted to deal with the Bullfighting Tribe, they couldn't do it without a ninth-level expert.
Zhao Hai turned to Wells and said, "Big Brother, do you think we could use food, vegetables, and fruit oil to persuade the mastiff race's ninth-level expert to take action? You should also ask other races to see if they could pay their ninth-level experts with these items. And don’t forget, here on the grassland, if a human’s ninth-level expert is too arrogant, the Great War Tribe won't agree. If we can enlist other races' ninth-level experts for help, we will have a chance. Plus, with the Life Liquid and Magic Peach Juice I give you, it might heal the Elder Supreme of the Herculean Bull Tribe, which would increase our odds."
Wells frowned and said, "Healing a ninth-level expert's injuries is not easy. If we can really heal the Elder Supreme's wounds, I'll immediately arrange the counterattack. If not, we'll just have to endure for now."
Zhao Hai nodded. He greatly appreciated Wells' cautious nature. He was not blinded by hatred and remained calm, which was commendable.
He immediately said, "Alright, as long as you need it, I have plenty of food. By the way, I also have vegetables and fruit oil. Tell them they're all fresh, absolutely fresh."
Wells nodded and turned to Mendez, "Sixth Brother, kill a Mighty Bull today; we will have roasted whole bull for dinner." Mendez turned and left.
Zhao Hai was somewhat surprised. Generally, the orc tribe would not kill bulls, as they were of great use to them. Bulls were typically only killed to entertain the most distinguished guests. He didn't expect Wells to decide to kill one today.
He quickly said, "Big Brother, that’s not necessary. We’re brothers; why the formality?"
Wells smiled slightly and said, "Come on, Brother Hai, why be polite with me? Ever since I met you, I haven't treated you to a roasted whole bull, and that makes me uneasy. Today, since I avenged a great grievance, let’s have a good feast."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "Alright, if Big Brother is happy today, then we will drink until we're drunk. Hahaha." With that, a few of them walked outside, where the bull had already been slaughtered and was being prepared for roasting.
Laura and the others were busy helping the guards set things up, a task Zhao Hai had assigned them. Now that he was blood oath brothers with Wells, he was not considered an outsider here and should help.
After Zhao Hai and the others sat down, they discussed the counterattack. Although Wells was very conservative, having lost their old camp to the Bullfighting Tribe still burned in his heart. However, as the clan leader of the Herculean Bull Tribe, he couldn’t let momentary anger lead to wrong decisions, which is why he was so cautious. If there was any possibility of counterattack, he would still pursue it.
Just as he previously mentioned, if the Elder Supreme of the Herculean Bull Tribe recovered, he would immediately prepare for a counterattack. This was indeed his innermost thought.
That night, Zhao Hai got drunk once again. There was no way around it; Wells was in a complicated mood today and needed to drink, so Zhao Hai had to accompany him. In the end, they all ended up completely intoxicated.
