77: Chapter 72: Strength Mushroom and Divine Mushroom 77: Chapter 72: Strength Mushroom and Divine Mushroom On the tree, Jiang Xuan and the others looked at the battlefield outside the Mushroom Forest with lingering fear.

The bodies of the Mosquito Tribe had been taken away, while the corpses of the giant wasps were still scattered on the ground.

Some of the giant wasps were not completely dead, occasionally twitching their legs.

“Have they all left?”

On the tree, Jiang Xuan first observed the giant wasp nest and confirmed that most of the giant wasps had returned to the nest.

He found that the five arrows with strong scents had been bitten into several pieces and dragged far away by the giant wasps.

Even the parts of the nest contaminated with the scent of the arrows had been torn off by those giant wasps and then cleaned away.

Now the wasp nest looked full of holes, but in a few days, it would be repaired as before.

“Terrifying giant wasps.”

Jiang Xuan thought of the scene where a whole nest of giant wasps roared past.

Although they weren’t targeting them, he was still filled with fear.

An individual giant wasp’s combat power wasn’t strong, as an One-Color Warrior could easily handle it, but when they fought in groups, even a Barbarian Bear had to retreat.

Jiang Xuan and the others climbed down from the tree, deliberately avoiding the location of the wasp nest to prevent the still furious wasps from coming out again.

“The people of the Mosquito Tribe have also run away.”

Shi Qiu cautiously checked the woods and confirmed that the people of the Mosquito Tribe had all run away before coming back to report to Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan said with satisfaction, “The Mosquito Tribe lost quite a few people this time.

We can consider this an indirect weakening of the Mosquito Tribe’s strength.”

The others also smiled.

The Mosquito Tribe’s loss was a great benefit for the Vine Tribe.

Shi Qiu asked, “Chief, what should we do next?”

Jiang Xuan thought for a moment and said, “We are too weak.

No matter which side we face, we can’t be confident.

It’s not advisable to stay here long, so let’s go back first.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

This place was indeed too dangerous for them.

Although Jiang Xuan was somewhat reluctant to leave this Mushroom Forest because he believed the Mosquito Tribe wouldn’t ambush here without reason; there must be some benefit to gain.

In other words, there was definitely something enticing inside the Mushroom Forest.

Unfortunately, the Vine Tribe was too weak and had no understanding of the Mushroom Forest.

Even if there were good things, they couldn’t obtain them.

“When the tribe becomes stronger, we’ll find an opportunity to come back here.”

Jiang Xuan shook his head, planning to return to the tribe and hunt some prey along the way.

They took the original route, skirting around the Mushroom Forest on their way back.

However, they hadn’t walked far when a person wearing a turtle shell stood on a giant mushroom in the Mushroom Forest, waving at them while shouting loudly, “Wait a moment!”

Jiang Xuan and the others stopped and vigilantly watched in that direction.

“What’s the matter?” Jiang Xuan responded while signaling everyone to be ready to run if something went wrong.

“Were those arrows shot by you?” The person in the turtle shell continued waving.

Jiang Xuan thought for a moment.

Since those arrows had caused trouble for the Mosquito Tribe but helped this unfamiliar tribe, there was no reason not to admit it.

“Yes, we shot them!”

The person in the turtle shell looked pleased and continued shouting, “We are from the Mountain Turtle Tribe.

Your arrows earlier brought out the giant wasps, which helped us.”

“The Mountain Turtle Tribe always repays favors.

Our chief says he wants to thank you properly.”

“How will you thank us?”

Jiang Xuan remained cautious because in the jungle, tribes fought fiercely over resources.

Trusting someone from an unfamiliar tribe too easily could bring disaster.

In such a harsh environment, those who were too naive couldn’t survive.

At this moment, a giant mountain turtle slowly emerged from the Mushroom Forest, alongside a middle-aged man wearing a large turtle shell.

Behind the middle-aged man were seventy or eighty warriors, along with another giant mountain turtle.

“Our chief is here!”

The person standing atop the giant mushroom called out, then climbed down the peculiar giant mushroom.

The middle-aged warrior in the large turtle shell called out from afar to Jiang Xuan, “Friends on the other side, I am Shan Jia, chief of the Mountain Turtle Tribe.

May I know which tribe you belong to?”

“We are from the Vine Tribe!” Jiang Xuan replied.

“The Vine Tribe…”

Shan Jia thought for a moment and realized he had never heard of this name before.

It was probably an obscure, remote little tribe.

However, Shan Jia didn’t mind, as the small tribes in the Southern Wilderness were as numerous as the stars in the sky.

As long as they weren’t hostile tribes, it was good.

“Friends from the Vine Tribe, thank you for the arrows earlier, which helped us avoid the ambush from the Mosquito Tribe.”

Shan Jia solemnly said, “The Mountain Turtle Tribe always repays favors.

To thank you, I’ve decided to give you some Strength Mushrooms and three Divine Mushrooms.”

“Strength Mushrooms?

Divine Mushrooms?” Jiang Xuan had never heard of these names and could only guess they were products of the Mushroom Forest.

He didn’t know what these mushrooms were used for or how big they were.

If they were as big as a house, it would be quite challenging to take them back.

Jiang Xuan looked at the giant mushrooms beside the Mountain Turtle Tribe people and didn’t know whether to accept such a gift.

Of course, he hadn’t relaxed his vigilance yet because the Vine Tribe had almost no contact with other tribes and didn’t know what kind of tribe the Mountain Turtle Tribe was.
