Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 562: Chapter 543: Grand Leader 61 Four Thousand Words

Upon hearing the sound of the whistle, Shuangshuang’s first reaction was to put out the fire, bury the roasted meat to prevent the scent from spreading, and then quickly climb up a nearby large tree, hiding among the abundant treetop, carefully observing the situation outside.

Although this whistle is only used by the Hunting Team when hunting giant prey, Shuangshuang still did not plan to meet anyone without any preparation. She knew this Hunting Team could be from a normal tribe or a Cannibal Tribe.

Encountering normal tribes would be no big deal, but if unlucky enough to encounter the Cannibal Tribe, Shuangshuang might just as well be hunted as prey too. Shuangshuang truly wasn’t confident she could escape if surrounded by the Cannibal Tribe’s hunting team.

You must understand that the Cannibal Tribe is almost entirely made up of warriors, as ordinary people in the Cannibal Tribe serve as reserve food, potentially slaughtered and eaten during the cold season and hot season.

The whistle outside continued to sound rhythmically, gradually from far to near—clearly, the people hunting this giant prey were approaching.

In the same Hunting Team, when hunting prey, there is an unspoken understanding among each other—when to attack, when to retreat—they can understand each other just with one glance, thereby hunting more efficiently.

However, this tacit understanding gets into trouble when faced with particularly large prey. The prey has a massive size, and hunters are distributed over various parts of it, sometimes unable to see each other. Under such circumstances, talking about coordination is futile, and hunting individually is suicidal.

To prevent this situation, whistle signals were developed, and every tribe’s Hunting Team members had their uniquely invented whistle.

Every whistle’s length represented different meanings like attack, retreat, roll to dodge, etc. One could say primitive people’s wisdom nearly focused entirely on hunting.

Of course, there are those who don’t like using whistle signals. That must be people who understand each other so well that not much need be said, knowing what reaction to take in any situation. Like Shuangshuang in the Yanhuang Tribe now.

In the Power Tribe, the Hunting Team members within the tribe had excellent bonds and deep mutual understanding, so they could hunt large prey without using whistle signals, like the giant ape.

Later, Power Tribe and Lanshan Tribe merged into Yanhuang Tribe, but due to both tribes having considerable interaction over years, the understanding remained strong, like when they previously killed the Giant Hammer Bird, so Yanhuang Tribe didn’t need whistle signals before.

However, after integrating Ling Tribe, and the people Shuangshuang rescued from being captured by the Cannibal Clan, this understanding no longer sufficed. The Hunting Team must involve new members; otherwise, exclusion could occur, hindering these people’s integration into the tribe.

But with these new members in the Hunting Team, the understanding significantly decreased, though this doesn’t mean the tribe’s people didn’t have good relations with them.

Coordination is a mysterious thing; it’s not simply about having bonds or mutual trust. Coordination requires long-term mutual adaptation, which these newcomers precisely lack.

With the decline in coordination, to ensure hunting quality, the Yanhuang Tribe has begun using whistle signals for hunting, knowing well the abundance of large prey on the plains requires manpower.

Upon hearing the whistle, Shuangshuang didn’t know the specific meaning of this whistle sound, but instantly realized that warriors from the tribe were hunting some kind of large prey.

However soon Shuangshuang frowned. Large prey running typically causes the ground to shake; how come she hadn’t felt anything just now? This was unusual, unless the prey was not on the ground.

Just as Shuangshuang was pondering this, she noticed a vast shadow being cast over the ground in front of her. Her heart skipped a beat as she suddenly looked up at the sky—her pupils involuntarily constricted!

Sharp claws, blue feathers, a head like a wolf, and within its wide-open mouth, a fireball was swirling and enlarging!

”Sky Wolf Fierce Beast!” Shuangshuang stared in disbelief at this terrifying creature, stunned by the immense being soaring freely in the sky, unable to help but exclaim in a low voice!
