Chapter 24: Preparing to Fight

On the other side of the oak tree.

“Hm? What’s going on with those people? Why are they all running exposed under the Purple Moon? Are they crazy?”

When the tribesmen ran in the direction of the warehouse, Vanni noticed them immediately.

Of course, it wasn’t just Vanni who saw it. Everyone else saw it as well.

“Ridiculous, they don’t know what fear is. How can they be running around under the radiation of the Purple Moon? Although the magical properties of your oak tree seem to have the effect of alleviating the purple moon’s contamination, it’s not omnipotent.”

“Mr Simon, hurry up and stop them. I’m afraid something might happen if we wait any longer!”

Someone immediately looked at Simon and suggested.

Meanwhile, Simon was completely stunned.

His own tribesmen knew about the dangers of the Purple Moon so why would they suddenly run out like this?

Could something have happened on his grandfather’s side?

Simon immediately thought of his grandfather and guessed that something must have happened.

Therefore, he immediately said to everyone, “Everyone, something might have happened. I’ll go over to my grandfather to verify it. Sorry, please excuse me.”

As Simon spoke, he prepared to go to the other side of the oak tree with a heavy heart.

However, right at this moment, someone had already arrived from afar.

The moment these people saw Simon, they immediately shouted anxiously,

“Chief, this is bad! Quick, Elder Barton wants you to hurry over!”

The person who arrived was out of breath and appeared very anxious.

“It’s bad? What exactly happened? Don’t be anxious. Tell me about it.”

Simon frowned and asked calmly.

After all, he was only a hundred meters away from his tribe. Even if something happened, it shouldn’t be a big deal.

Could someone over there have suffered from the so-called severe contamination caused by the Purple Moon’s radiation?

That shouldn’t be the case?

Simon realized that he had only just learned about the Purple Moon’s secret from the people of West York. This made him even more confused.

“Yes, it’s like this.” The person took a deep breath to calm himself down before continuing, “Elder Barton suddenly received a response from the sacred tree.”

“The divine revelation seems to be linked to some monsters, and that they are coming!”

When this person spoke, his mood was extremely heavy and worried which naturally affected Simon.

“Divine revelation? Monsters?”

Simon didn’t think that his grandfather would spout nonsense.

After all, there were already enough mysterious sights produced by the sacred tree today. It was not that unreasonable for them to suddenly get a divine revelation.

As for the monsters.

Simon’s expression turned grave.

“There’s actually such a thing? The tribesmen that just ran out are going to retrieve weapons from the warehouse, right?”

“I think so.”

This was not good.

Simon felt a sense of urgency in his heart, but at this moment, he suddenly thought of something and immediately turned to look at the people from West York who were watching his conversation closely.

“Mr Simon, did something happen?”

Although the people from West York couldn’t understand the native language of the tribe, they could make a guess based on the urgency of the person.

Simon nodded.

“Yes. Everyone, we might be in trouble.”

“Trouble?”

Everyone was puzzled.

At this moment, it was quiet in the rainforest. It didn’t look like there was going to be any trouble.

“That’s right. Perhaps you might not believe me, but it is true.”

“My grandfather has just received a divine revelation from the sacred tree. Monsters are coming here, and… I think they might be the creatures that you were all talking about.”

“Divine revelation? Monsters?”

Everyone looked at each other.

However, Vanni Campbell suddenly looked excited.

“Divine revelation? Mr Simon, did your grandfather really receive enlightenment from the mysterious tree? Is this really true?”

“How can it be fake?” Simon was a little displeased. “Although my grandfather looks a little old, his mind is not muddled enough for him to lie about such things.”

“Enough. Regardless of whether or not you all believe me, I have no choice but to seek your help.”

“In order to deal with the possible danger, I would like to ask everyone to mobilize the three military helicopters that you have parked at the camp. I think we may have to use heavy firearms.”

Most of the armed tribesmen led by Simon were at the campsite three kilometers away. It would not be easy for them to enter even if they were called using the satellite phone.

After all, the small path into the rainforest was still under the Purple Moon’s radiation. It would be extremely risky for them to enter now.

But it was a different case for helicopters.

Not only can they scout in the sky, they can also use the strange heavy firearms to attack enemies from afar.

“This…”

Some people were skeptical.

But there were also some who were supportive.

“It’s not impossible. Although the divine revelation you mentioned sounds a little absurd, what we saw today was equally absurd.”

“Which is why I will support Mr. Simon unconditionally.”

Mallory was the first to voice his support.

Hearing Mallory’s support, the other two people who had helicopters accepted the request for mobilization as well.

“There’s nothing wrong with being careful. I support sending out armed helicopters as well.”

“Cough cough! Since none of you have any objections, I naturally won’t have any either.” Vanni Campbell was still thinking about the divine revelation, but she immediately gave an affirmative.

“Good! With everyone’s support, I feel much more at ease. Thank you everyone.”

“Everyone, please. Time waits for no man.”

After Simon thanked the three of them, he immediately urged them.

The three of them smiled and took out their satellite phones from their bags.

After the call, the people of West York decided to meet up with Simon’s tribe on the other side of the oak tree for their own safety.

Ten minutes later.

Under the Purple Moon, all three helicopters had arrived around the oak tree.

And at this moment, the arrival of these three military helicopters instantly saw the strange sight that the people of West York had not noticed before.

“Oh, this is unbelievable. Is this a protective shield from a science fiction movie? It looks amazing.”

“It’s indeed incredible. Look at those birds on the oak tree. They seem to be enjoying themselves.”

“Gods, do you think it’s too late for me to change my faith to the Druids? This green thing seems to be resisting the Purple Moon’s contamination. This is too unbelievable.”

“…”

In the three armed helicopters, more than ten soldiers were currently discussing the wonders of the oak tree in the public radio channel.

At the same time, they did not forget to turn on the army recorder to record a video of the oak tree.

Meanwhile, under the tree, Simon’s tribe had already completed their preparations and were on high alert, guarding against their surroundings.

Time seemed to stretch on, and everyone was getting increasingly nervous.

Soon, noise and chaos sounded from the north side of the rainforest.
