Tanit Camp is located at the southernmost tip of the Thousand Valley Sands, in a huge oasis in the Canyon of the Giants.
This oasis is not only rich in water and grass, but also has a very critical geographical location. It guards the only road from the Liezhu Sand Plain in the south to the Qianhe Sand Land. It can simultaneously monitor several major relics of the Chiwang Civilization, namely the Chiwang Tomb and the Shengxian. Hall and Gul city ruins.
The Tanit tribe has been able to occupy such an important oasis for hundreds of years, which shows that it has a profound foundation and strong strength. If Fertad hadn't suddenly emerged and conquered many tribes from the more barren north, Tanit would have been the out-and-out overlord of this place.
On this day, the sandstorm that lasted for almost a month was still howling. The members of the Tanit tribe had to cover their mouths and noses with cloth towels and work in the fields and breeding ponds against the wind and sand. Although the cliff blocked most of the wind and sand, the remaining dust still made them miserable. After a day's work, the ears and nose are often filled with gravel.
In the past, when encountering such bad weather, the tribesmen would often go to a sheltered place to rest for a while after working to avoid inhaling too much fine sand, but today no one dared to pause for a moment.
There was no other reason - Matron Tanit, who had killed seven elders with bloody methods in a few months and completely gained control of the tribe, was watching everyone from a high place.
After watching quietly for a moment, Babel raised her hand to call her subordinates who were promoted to elders and were in charge of breeding and planting. She asked in a deep voice: "Yuften, how long will it take for the next batch of grain to mature?"
Yufteng was so nervous that he was sweating profusely and stammered: "Master...Mother, it will take at least two months for the next batch of food to... mature. If it is a crocodile...crocodile, There will be a batch of products for sale next month, but the quantity is not... not much..."
"Let's be honest, how long can our food reserves last?" Babel asked calmly.
"Take it easy, one... one month... but mistress, the impact of the sand... sandstorm is too... big. The food that will become... mature in two months will probably not be enough... to support the next... Grain batching...grain is ripe..." Yufteng's voice became smaller and smaller.
"That is to say, we must obtain food from the outside world." Babel's voice remained calm.
"Yes...yes...but mistress, where do we go from here..."
Babel glanced at Yuften coldly, and instantly choked the second half of his words back in her throat.
Yufteng was suddenly sweating profusely, and he knelt down and kowtowed. He even spoke more eloquently, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Mistress! It's me who talks too much!"
Babel stared at him for a while, then turned and left without saying anything.
Yufu Teng seemed to have escaped a great calamity and collapsed on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
Seeing Babel leave, a strong man with tangled muscles quickly followed him and asked in a low voice: "Mother, won't you punish this boy Yuften?"
"You can't punish your tribe for trivial matters, Asarigue." Babel held her head high and looked straight, like a proud queen. "What's more, he is still useful. I still need him to manage food production."
"Yes……"
"Is Weilin not here yet?"
"The informant came to report that Wei Lin's team stopped as soon as they left the Corridor of the Dead. They kept a day's distance from us. The external alert level is very high... It seems that Jade may have missed it."
"Did even Jade fail... This woman, Wei Lin, is quite capable. In this case, I'm afraid she won't come to our camp easily." Babel stopped and sighed with a slight disappointment. He took a breath and immediately looked at Asarige, "That's all, as long as she stays within my sight and does not affect our entry into the Eternal Oasis. Asarige."
"At your command, Mistress."
"Go to the entrance of the Gul City ruins and wait for Jade there. When she arrives, proceed as planned."
Asarige was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Mother, Jade failed in her assassination and did not come back to fight. Why do you conclude that she is still alive? And she will go to the ruins of Gul City?"
Babel chuckled and said: "That child Jide is a beast and will not die so easily...Although the assassination failed and she did not dare to return for fear of being punished by me, she will still try her best to find the Eternal Oasis, and To find the Eternal Oasis, we must start looking for clues from the ruins of Gul City. That child is easy to guess... She said she wanted to put her parents' relics into the Eternal Oasis, so she would not give up halfway."
Asarige was doubtful, but he still bowed and accepted the order: "I understand, Mistress."
"Go ahead...call Adelphi on the way."
"Yes, Mistress."
Asalige stepped back respectfully, and not long after, a middle-aged man with a mature face came behind Babel and saluted respectfully.
"Adelphi, go and send a message to those northerners, asking them to send us a batch of food and supplies that is enough for the Tanit tribe to use for half a year within two months, no matter what method they use, otherwise we will The cooperation will no longer be possible." Babel ordered coldly.
Adelphi hesitated for a moment, but still said respectfully: "But Mistress, we have been delaying the experimental subjects that the people from the North have requested from us for almost a month. If we go to them to talk about this at this time, I'm afraid..."
Babel sneered and said: "What are you afraid of? This is Qianhe Sandland, not Zhihuang! Those people from the North cannot do without our help if they want to do things here. Just put forward the conditions! As for what they want The experimental subject...will be available soon!"
Adelphi opened his mouth, but finally responded respectfully, saluted and left.
Looking at Adelphi's leaving figure, Babel's brows frowned slightly. She thought for a moment, then raised her hand to summon a subordinate and gave him some instructions.
Not long after, the subordinate returned with a middle-aged man with a strong face.
Facing this middle-aged man, Babel showed rare respect, nodded pleasantly and said: "Elder Marcela."
This person is the only remaining one among the nine elders of Tanit! "Falcon" leader Marcela!
Facing Babel, Marcela showed great respect, "Good day, Mistress! You summoned humble Marcela to come here. What are your instructions?"
Babel raised her hand and patted his shoulder, lowering her voice and saying: "Marcella, the food in the tribe is not enough... Fertad has taken away too much of our food reserves, and Yuftena alone With limited output, we can’t feed everyone.”
There was no expression on Marcela's face, she just lowered her head and said, "So what do you mean?"
"Take your falcon, take down the two northerners' outposts, and get their supplies back! Be more stealthy!"
"Yes." Marcela accepted the task respectfully without saying a word, turned around and left.
Babel watched him leave, and after a long time she whispered to herself: "You're still so obedient, so flawless... Then I'll keep you for a while longer... Humph, this kid Adelphi got benefits from the people from the North, You think I don’t know? Now let’s see how you explain it to the people from the North!”
At this moment, a tribesman suddenly came to report.
"Mother, Weilin has sent a messenger!"
