Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 553: Chapter 540: Grand Leader 58 Four Thousand Words

Before, the Power Tribe was attacked by a cannibal Super Tribe, which captured many clansmen as reserve food, leading to the decline of the Power Tribe. As for the fate of those captured clansmen, it goes without saying—they either became reserve food for the cold or hot seasons or, like now, were brought by the Cannibal Clan to the Mutual Market, becoming goods on sale.

The Cannibal Tribe is a cruel yet powerful tribe because it almost never starves. This is due to their hunting range, which includes not only beasts but also humans. Typically, their hunts prioritize beasts, as beast meat is abundant.

Only before the cold and hot seasons arrive does the Cannibal Tribe launch full-scale attacks on smaller tribes, taking their people as reserve food. Besides this occasion, they only capture people before starting the Mutual Market, and those captured become the Cannibal Tribe’s live meat for trading at the market.

The Cannibal Tribe refers to people as live meat and considers human meat to be the most delicious in the world. If the captured live meat runs out during hunger times, the Cannibal Tribe might even consume the elders within their tribe, and if there are no elders left, they would eat the ordinary people who are not warriors.

The Cannibal Tribe does not capture humans for food during times of abundant provisions because they believe humans, being so easily captured, should be reserved for times of dire need for food.

Generally, the Cannibal Tribe looks for an ordinary tribe in advance and identifies their location, but usually doesn’t bother them until they need reserve food or need to trade at the Mutual Market, at which point they attack the tribe and capture all its people.

Due to having meat all year round and continually eliminating the weak, and merging with other cannibal tribes during times of low population, every Cannibal Tribe has many warriors, making their combat power extremely strong. Other tribes facing against the Cannibal Tribe generally stand no chance.

The records in the tribal book are nothing but cold words, far less impactful than witnessing this scene in person!

No matter how much Yan Shuangshuang knew of the Cannibal Tribe’s brutality and inhumanity, nothing prepared her for the impact of directly facing this sight!

Seeing the devastation before her eyes, Yan Shuangshuang unconsciously gripped her hands tightly, feeling an overwhelming urge to immediately kill these brutal Cannibal Clan members!

But she couldn’t act rashly. Not to mention the trouble of startling the Super Tribe hosting the Mutual Market, the sheer fact that all these people in front of her are warriors was enough to make Yan Shuangshuang quell her killing intent and calm down. After all, she couldn’t possibly win against so many people!

If it were three or five, or even six or seven people, Yan Shuangshuang would be confident in defeating them. However, here there are more than twenty Cannibal Clan members, each with Warrior Power surging through their bodies, clearly not a force she could handle alone.

Even though Yan Shuangshuang had Warrior Power, she did not have painted patterns on her body, visibly different from the Cannibal Clan, so her presence here quickly caught the attention of the Cannibal Clan engaged in trading.

A man of immense stature, his face painted with patterns, seemingly the leader of the Cannibal Clan, approached and sized up Yan Shuangshuang, saying, ”Which tribe are you from, and why are you here? Don’t tell me you’re also here to buy live meat? You Vegetarian Tribes don’t eat meat!”

The man’s gaze was blatant, filled with an intense, naked desire, yet this desire wasn’t carnal but a yearning for delicious food. Yan Shuangshuang finally understood why those people looked at her strangely before, as their gaze was that of seeing food!

As for referring to Yan Shuangshuang as a member of the Vegetarian Tribe, this was the Cannibal Clan’s term for tribes that don’t eat humans, mocking them as useless vegetarians, akin to grass-eating animals deservedly becoming prey for strong Hunters. In this sense, the term Vegetarian Tribe was a scornful jab at non-cannibal tribes by the Cannibal Tribe.

Yan Shuangshuang suppressed her discomfort and, looking at the cage full of live people, tried her best to maintain a neutral expression before coldly saying to the man, ”I want all your live meat here, trading for weapons. Name your price!”

The man seemed a bit surprised, raising an eyebrow. He did not expect Yan Shuangshuang to be a cannibal, but he did not suspect her of pretending to be one either. Although the Cannibal Clan likes to paint patterns on their bodies to display their ferocity, there are still cannibals who don’t like such body art. Moreover, someone who isn’t a member of the Cannibal Clan couldn’t possibly be interested in live meat.
