You've become the warden, and you're telling me I'm an undercover agent?

Chapter 338 The precursor to the tribe’s demise!
"Okay, it's time for us to set off." Chi Ping said.

"Ah." The two-faced turtle nodded and took away Ikehira's breakfast tray and chopsticks. The tableware was found in the fortress. With another six or seven days of travel ahead, if there were no other cities to stay in, these items could be reused.

The two-faced turtle washed all the dishes quickly, and then he heard a commotion outside. It was Xiaoyun's voice.

She quickly leaned half of her body out of the room, without even having time to put down her sleeves.

Outside, Xiaoyun piled up the corpses of all the monsters that Chi Ping had killed in seconds last night, and the fortress was filled with a fishy smell.

"Are the tribe members here?" Xiaoyun asked Chi Ping.

She learned the word tribe from Chi Ping.

Chi Ping pondered for half a second before realizing what Xiao Yun meant. Due to cognitive deception, Xiao Yun only saw these humanoid monsters as deformed, distorted creatures that didn't resemble human forms.

In other words, these monsters that appeared in the territory of the World United Government were not from the World United Government's own world, but came from the tribe.

Due to the existence of the [Eyes of Truth], Chi Ping has no cognitive deception when seeing anyone, which leads to the preconceived notion that these monsters are the products of the World United Government.

Thousands of humanoid monsters were exterminated yesterday. What was the purpose of such a large-scale operation?
Is the tribe going to cause trouble again?
Chi Ping turned around and saw the two-faced turtle peeking out. "Look, do you recognize it?"

The two-faced turtle came closer, looked carefully, and then shook his head and nodded.

"What do you mean?" Chi Ping asked.

"I don't recognize them." The two-faced turtle said, "But I have seen their clothing and appearance in the tribe."

These humanoid monsters looked like mummies, with bulging and cloudy eyes and dry and dull skin.

Chi Ping nodded, and the two-faced turtle also became a little anxious.

"Sir, has something serious happened to the tribe?" She suddenly turned around and looked at Chi Ping with concern. Her hands were tightly grasping the linen cloth used to scrub the dishes, and her delicate eyebrows were wrinkled into beautiful little pimples.

Didn’t something happen already?

Chi Ping complained in his heart, but did not say it out loud, just comforted her.

I don’t know why the people in the tribe have turned into such skinny monsters, but the best solution at the moment is to go straight to the tribe and find out.

While Huoba and Xiaoyun were packing up, the two-faced turtle girl performed a simple ritual to pray for the dead body with a sad heart.

Throw in some wood and start a fire.

There is no gasoline right now, so it will definitely not burn completely, but we still have to give it a try.

Just when the two-faced turtle was going through the process of salvation, something interesting happened.

A middle-aged mummy buried under the mummies suddenly pushed the person above away and jumped out of the fire!
“Hot hot hot!!!

"Death, death, death!!!"

Then there was another round of chattering. The incident happened so suddenly that the two-faced turtle was frightened and trembled, and almost fell to the ground.

"Chu!"

A ball of water fell from the sky, and Chi Ping extinguished the fire on the middle-aged corpse. A cloud of steam rose from his body, revealing his shriveled and charred skin.

"Water! Give me water!"

He sat down on the wall and shouted loudly.

"I, I." The two-faced turtle was so anxious that he went to the room to get water. Chi Ping raised his hand and filled his glass directly.

As water continued to flow into the middle-aged corpse's body, his skin began to swell and become more and more plump. From dull to wheat-colored, his muscles and body began to become elastic.

Gradually, he turned from a dried corpse back into a human.

In other words—Chi Ping glanced at the other mummies burned by the fire and suddenly fell silent.

Are these all tribal people?
Before Chi Ping could recover from the thousand mummies, he heard the two-faced turtle exclaim:
"Uncle Mongoose!"

Chi Ping asked the two-faced turtle: "Didn't you say you didn't know him?"

"He was too rough before." The two-faced turtle said a little embarrassedly.

It's normal. The bitter mongoose was wrinkled and had a dark face before. Even its mother couldn't recognize it, let alone a two-faced turtle?

The dried corpse not far from the mongoose crackled in the flames, and the flames burned his face, revealing an unhealthy white.

Chi Ping hesitated for two seconds and said:
"Has your tribe's water shortage reached such a serious level?"

The mongoose turned his gaze towards Chi Ping, and the two-faced turtle quickly explained, "This is Mr. Chi Ping, the powerful yet gentle man recognized by the First Apostle."

"Actually, there's no need to add so many adjectives." Ikehira complained.

"This is Chief Mongoose." After introducing Chi Ping, the two-faced turtle began to introduce the Mongoose: "His tribe is affiliated with the Third Apostle. Uncle Mongoose likes women with big arms and waists. He himself is a powerful man who once killed a tiger with his armpit."

"There's no need to introduce it in such detail." The meerkat stood up with the help of the wall.

The four apostles of the Great Emperor each had their own tribes, ranging from a few to dozens. Each tribe varied in size and number of people. Bitter Mongoose was the chief of one of these tribes.

"But, Uncle Mongoose, why are you here?" The two-faced turtle asked what Chi Ping wanted to ask.

"I'm not sure either." The Bitter Mongoose said, "I received a call from the Third Apostle to lead my tribe to reunite with the people under the Second Apostle, and then—"

The bitter mongoose swallowed his saliva when he said this:
"Then, we declared war on the Second Apostle!"

When the two-faced turtle heard the word "start war", there was a buzzing sound in his head and he was in an uproar.

A feeling like the sky was falling came over her, and for a moment, she became panic-stricken.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?" The two-faced turtle kept muttering to himself, but the mongoose didn't finish his words.

He continued, "The Second Apostle unleashed his power, killing a large number of hostile warriors and turning them into mummies. Before I died, the tribal priest put me in a state of 'suspended death,' temporarily escaping the disaster."

"When you wake up, it will be here."

Only then did Chi Ping realize that the mummified bodies of the tribesmen around him were already dead.

The mongoose's voice was very low, and with every word he spoke, the two-faced turtle's face turned paler.

Finally, she trembled and asked, "What about God? Doesn't God restrain them?"

When the two-faced turtle appeared, the emperor's condition was not quite right. However, he was still able to control his apostles, and the tribe would not have fallen into such a situation.

The mongoose smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The god has imprisoned himself in the tower of swords. No matter which tribe's chieftains go, they will not see him."

Besides the tribes belonging to the four apostles, there are many more tribes gathered under the name of "God". There are also marginal tribes like the tribe of the two-faced turtle, which are more nominally affiliated with "God".

"Also," said the Bitter Mongoose, "before attacking the Second Apostle, someone in the tribe discovered that a large number of monsters were gathering in the west."

The monster that the mongoose was referring to was the army of the coalition government.

Sure enough, bad news came one after another.

"If 'God' doesn't step up, the tribe may be gone."

He said this with great frustration.
