Chapter 177: Amazon Tribes

Lan Wu looked at the little girl in surprise. This little girl, who still refuses to tell the origin of her name, suddenly came out with such a sentence, which made me feel really confused.

How can such a little girl who doesn't have the slightest magic fluctuation help herself?

In confusion, Lan Wu suddenly saw Ovira become vigilant and block in front of him, protecting the two of them behind him. He didn't wrinkle slightly, and soon heard a few slight movements coming from the jungle.

What is it?

Lan Wu was taken aback. If the soul hunters were to chase them, they would have to flee farther away. I am afraid that the hope of rescuing a living woman from that tribe is even slimmer.

Whoosh, several black shadows quickly sprang out of the jungle, forming a triangle to surround the three of them. If you look closely, it's a few Amazons. Their identities were confirmed by brown ponytails swaying in the wind behind their heads and bows and arrows with arrows in their hands.

"Who are you?" The leader of the Amazon stared at the three of them vigilantly, his gaze sweeping back and forth over their faces. Finally fixed on Granvu's face. Among the three, Lan Wu's appearance was the most peculiar, comparable to the wizards in the Soul Hunter tribe.

"Benefactor Lan Wu, who has come here from Camp Rog to find the whereabouts of the apothecary Echo." Lan Wu walked up to Ovira and said frankly, "We have a patient who needs an antidote from Lord Eco to save his life. But the only clue at the moment is that the previous Soul Hunter tribe once caught a woman who was suspected to be Lord Echo. So here we are. ”

"Just the two of you?" The Amazon at the head looked incredulous. How dare two professionals dare to provoke that soul hunter tribe.

"He's a level fifty-six paladin." Lan Wu introduced Ovilla sideways, and said with a smile: "I'm not an ordinary professional. I am a benefactor. I used to ......"

After a pause, he scratched his head and added, "Maybe you don't believe it even more. But if you've come across a professional from Lougoin, you've heard my name. ”

The Amazon's face softened slightly, and his gaze stayed on Ovira for a few more moments, before he put away his bow and arrows, and invited in a deep voice, "We heard your distress signals. Looks like you're in a lot of trouble. Come with me. My tribe welcomes friends of the Amazon. ”

Several other Amazons immediately saw a gesture made by the leader, and immediately plunged into the jungle, and their skills were quite agile, which made Lan Wu sigh. She is the daughter of the jungle.

Lan Wu didn't quite understand why these Amazons said that the three of them were friends of Amazons. Carefully calculated, the Amazon that can be regarded as a friend is only Avila. A little more relaxed, Barbara's sidekick, Amazon Venia can also be counted as one. But how do these Amazons know about them?

After glancing at Ovira, Lan Wu saw a hint of acquiescence in his eyes, and he had no scruples. The three of them followed these Amazons through the jungle for more than an hour, and their eyes became cheerful.

It's an open plateau. Green trees are scattered throughout the highlands. There are elaborate treehouses built on the trees. Many Amazons, who were dressed in full strength, looked at them in surprise when they saw the tribal leader returning with three professionals.

Lanwu didn't know about the customs of the Amazons. However, Ovira had traveled with Barbara in the harbor of Curast for a while, and knew a lot about the Amazonian tribes that still live in the jungle.

There are two types of Amazon among humans. One is that it is completely integrated into human society, and the blood that belongs to the Amazon is not pure. Only by awakening the bloodline in the body can you obtain the relevant professional inheritance. And the other is the one in front of you.

These Amazons, who still live in the jungle, have always maintained a traditional life. Hunting in the rainforest, completely resisting the entry of men into the tribe. Only when it is decided to reproduce will they go out of the jungle, live with the man of their choice for a while, and then return to the tribe when they become pregnant. If a boy is born, they send the newborn baby to be raised by the father, or to be raised by a good commoner. If a girl is born, then the girl will be raised in the traditions of the tribe until she awakens the Amazon bloodline, obtains the professional inheritance, and finally becomes a qualified Amazon warrior.

Ovira knew that the Amazons refused to allow men to enter the tribe, believing that it would bring disaster to the tribe. However, there are two special cases. One is that important members of the tribe cannot freely go out to find men to conceive, so they can only invite men into the tribe to perform sacred reproductive rituals. The second is friends who have already received Amazon friendships. But in either case, the Amazon would never deliberately lure a man into the tribe and then kill him. If they don't want to let the other person get close to the tribe, they will only use force to drive the other person away. Since these Amazons didn't drive the three of them away, he was relieved to accept the invitations of these Amazons.

"They are friends of the Amazons and have sacred music." The Amazon leader, who had brought the three Lanwu over, raised his bow and arrows and loudly announced the identities of the three to the rest of the tribe.

Knowing that the two strange men were friends with the Amazons and possessed sacred music, the tribe became lively. They brought fresh fruit and pickled jerky from their treehouses and threw a sumptuous feast under the big tree in the middle of the tribe.

Lan Wu thought about trying to convince these Amazons to follow him to rescue the woman who was captured by the soul hunters, after all, the little girl also said that she needed help, but she didn't expect to attend a rare banquet first.

Amazonian recipes are simple, with seasonal wild fruits and marinated jerky. Wild fruit is sweet and delicious. The jerky is no less impressive. After questioning, he learned that this jerky is a special recipe inherited from the Amazon to adapt to the hot and humid rainforest climate.

This Amazonian tribe is welcoming. The chieftain, Yideya, selflessly told the history of this jerky and how to make it. Due to the humid and muggy climate of the rainforest, meat spoils in a very short period of time. The Amazonian ancestors used spices unique to the rainforest to marinate dried strips of meat and seal them in jars to keep out the air and prevent microorganisms from multiplying. When it's time to eat, open a jar.

At this time, due to the isolation from the outside air, the humid and sultry environment generates a lot of heat, so that the moisture in the jar seeps into the mud that seals the mouth of the jar due to the rising temperature, so that the meat strips are dehydrated in small amounts. The result is a cooked meat that tastes much like steamed meat before being marinated, and it is both chewy and a little soft, and the taste is quite good.

Unlike the city's prost, these traditionally respectful Amazons don't drink. They believe that drinking alcohol will lead to weakness of willpower, so that they cannot resist the temptation of demons and lose the honor of Amazon warriors.

The banquet started abruptly and ended quickly. After a hearty meal, the feast ended. The various Amazons dispersed and continued to work on what was not yet done. The leader, Edia, led the three back to their treehouse. As soon as she sat down, she asked straight to the point.

"What's the trouble you're in?" (To be continued.) )
