Chapter 35: Surrender of Plunderers
Outside the valley, Mog's expression darkened as he observed Enzo treating others.
Uncertain of how many people Enzo could heal, Mog knew this ability posed a significant threat.Plunderers of the Chew Bone Tribe lacked healers.Any injury meant reduced combat effectiveness.
Therefore, dealing with Enzo became Mog's priority.
Just as Mog prepared to strike, Clara and Tia swiftly intervened, repelling nearby enemies and rushing to Enzo's side, intercepting Mog's swinging blade as fast as possible.
However, Mog's crimson mist caused their arms to burn upon contact.
Clara and Tia retreated to Enzo and warned, "The red mist on him has a strong corrosive effect.Please be extra careful!"
Enzo nodded and proceeded to treat the two individuals,Tia and Clara.
Then he instructed, "Tia, Clara, handle the others of plunderers. Leave him to me."
Tia and Clara were reluctant but they considered that Priest Lucy was nearby.So they agreed to Enzo's plan. And they assisted other tribe members in eliminating the plunderers.
However, hearing this, Mog sneered, "You think you can handle me?How ridiculous this is!"
Enzo paid no heed to Mog's mockery completely. His body radiated with a green glow, flickering like flames dancing around him. The powerful aura emanating from him caused Mog's expression to shift drastically. Priest Lucy, spectating nearby, widened her eyes once more, astounded anew.
This aura rivaled the strength of powerful tribe priests.
Not to mention,it is remarkable considering Enzo's youth.
At this point,Priest Lucy couldn't help but feel anxious, resolving to urge Jessica to bear children with Enzo as soon as they returned.
On the other side, Mog's face finally changed.
Panic-stricken, he asked, "Who... exactly were you?"
Enzo calmly replied, "I am Enzo, the priest of the Crimson Star Tribe."
Upon hearing this, Mog immediately denied it.He said, "It is mpossible! With such immense power, you cannot be just a priest of a small tribe such as the Crimson Star Tribe. This is absolutely impossible!I am sure you are lying to me!"

Mog refused to believe anymore.
Enzo, however, was no longer interested in continuing the conversation. With a swift movement, he dashed across the grass, leaving an afterimage. Before Mog could react, a tremendous force struck his abdomen, sending him crashing to the ground with a powerful punch.
Ahem...Ahem...
Mog struggled to get up, spitting out blood. The ground was stained red with his blood.
Despite his fear, he intentionally provoked Enzo upon seeing the anger in his eyes, "Are you angry? Let me guess, someone you care about got killed by us? Or perhaps—"
Before he could finish his sentence, Enzo kicked him away.
His hurtling body knocked down several plunderers, drawing the attention of others.
"Mog!" Madeline yelled loudly, running towards him.
Meanwhile, a group of plunderers gathered together, forming a shield in front of Enzo. The members of the Crimson Star Tribe also gathered around Enzo, despite their various wounds, displaying unwavering determination in their eyes.
The Chew Bone Tribe must be destroyed today!
Behind the ranks of numerous plunderers, Mog struggled to stand up, his gaze filled with intense cruelty.
He issued the order: "Everyone fight together .And he must be dead today !"
After speaking, he suddenly grabbed a regular plunderer from the Chew Bone Tribe. The blood-red mist corroded his skin, causing the plunderer to die in pain in an instant. The blood on the plunderer's body was absorbed and converted by the Mog. The blood mist on his body became even more intense.
This scene caused many plunderers to glare at each other angrily.
They questioned, "Mog, have you gone mad? How can you kill him?"
Plunderers typically obeyed the strong and disregarded order, but Mog's recent disheveled appearance unsettled them. They didn't want to risk their lives alongside Mog.
His killing of his own people gave them a reason to surrender.
Immediately, a plunderer surrendered, saying, "Great Lord Priest of the Crimson Star Tribe, Lord Enzo,we surrender and pledge allegiance to you. We will clear all obstacles and plunder all riches for you!"
One after another followed suit. They did not want to die.
Loyalty to Mog was nonexistent among the plunderers . Because the plunderers had no loyalty anymore.
Gene's group arrived at the open grassland and witnessed several plunderers kneeling, seemingly pledging allegiance to a young man.
Just then, messenger Lott arrived and delivered news.
Pointing at Enzo, he exclaimed loudly , "Lord Gene, that boy is the priest of the Crimson Star Tribe. No wonder he refused the alliance of us. He had already allied with the Chew Bone Tribe long ago. He wasn't here to deal with the Chew Bone Tribe at all, but to bring people to join them, preparing to unite and deal with other tribes!"
As soon as Lott explained this, the other people who had arrived immediately showed hostile expressions.
Nearly a thousand members from various tribes, armed with spears, began to encircle the Chew Bone Tribe and the Crimson Star Tribe, who were locked in confrontation.
Clara manipulated the dagger and directly pierced Lott's throat.
She turned to Gene and his group, issuing a warning, "This is the fate of those who slander Lord Enzo."
After completing these actions, she glanced at the surrendering plunderers, then looked towards Enzo with a questioning expression.
Gene and the others, filled with rage, immediately commanded, "Annihilate them all!"
As Gene uttered these words, the ground suddenly trembled, the grass splitting open as numerous vines emerged from beneath the earth. These vines appeared animated, their tips aimed menacingly at the others.
Enzo gazed at the surrendering plunderers and declared, "Surrender?I do not accept."
After speaking, he controlled the vines and launched an attack in an instant. The vines were like spears, piercing through the hearts of those plunderers in an instant, giving them no chance to kill others again.
After consuming the Giant Mountain Turtle, Enzo's totemic power underwent a significant enhancement.
This was evident not only in the quantity of totemic power but also in its increased potency. For instance, he could now simultaneously manifest multiple streams of energy to heal others, and most notably, he gained the ability to manipulate plants.
No longer needing to prepare seeds or plant saplings, Enzo could now directly control the vegetation around him.
This newfound ability became his most formidable asset currently.
Enzo calmly stated after killing the plunderers, "Your fate was sealed the moment you set foot in the Crimson Star camp. Those who kill the Crimson Star Tribe will find only death awaits them!"
His words and the scene instilled resolve in the hesitant plunderers.
Madeline seized the opportunity to incite them further, saying, "He's just one man. We have hundreds. He may not be able to kill all of us!We must fight for ourselves!"
On the other side.
The members from the other tribes brought by Gene stood in shock.
Someone asked, "Lord Gene, it seems we've made a mistake. The Crimson Star Tribe isn't allied with the Chew Bone Tribe. Should we continue to eliminate them, or should we help them?"
Gene cursed Lott inwardly.Damn it!
If Lott hadn't already been dead, Gene would have personally ended his life.
The Giant Bear Tribe was a sizable tribe, and Gene had good judgment. At first glance, he recognized something extraordinary about Enzo—not just the usual priestly inheritance, but possibly totemic power!
A priest with totemic power was an entity not to be provoked.
Moreover, due to Lott's deliberate slander, they had offended the Crimson Star Tribe deeply.
Now, they needed to find a way to remedy the situation right away.
Gene issued another command, "Everyone, throw your spears and attack the Chew Bone Tribe!"
Before he finished speaking, the ground trembled once again.
The vines that had emerged earlier surged up once more. Each vine stretched dozens of meters long, resembling green serpents wildly slithering across the grass. They effortlessly pierced through the plunderers who were advancing towards Enzo, skewering them into a large group before flinging them away.
This brutal scene terrified the plunderers.
They chose to flee as fast as they can.
But escaping was futile anymore.
The vines attacked faster than they could run.
Before long, only seven or eight plunderers with supernatural abilities remained in front of Mog and Madeline. Mog took the opportunity to absorb the blood of the fallen plunderers, causing the red mist around him to thicken and his strength to increase significantly. However, he had lost his initial arrogance.
He knew well that he was no match for Enzo.
Mog regretted his decisions now.
Specifically, he regretted not heeding Madeline's advice to escape through the valley paths earlier.
But regrets were now useless.
Stepping forward, Mog addressed Enzo, saying, "Lord Priest, on behalf of the Chew Bone Tribe, we apologize for the earlier attack. We are so sorry for this.Furthermore, if you allow us to depart peacefully, I am prepared to offer a generous compensation to the Crimson Star Tribe.And we can tell you a secret that can make you even more powerful."
"This secret... is enough to make you the most formidable presence in the barren mountain!"
