Ancient Tribe - [ Chapter - 42 ]

As they saw the monsters and animals, going at them, they prepared their weapons and skills but then noticed they didn't seemed like they were aiming for Hyun Ki and them and so Hyun Ki decided to try and check if there was anything behind the crowd of Monsters and animals.

Since they had heard a horn being blown and it was most likely the cause, Hyun Ki then activated his spirit arms and started using a few light weight symbols and spells he knew then used the spirit arms to climb the huge trees that were around.

With his actual hands free to do whatever, Hyun Ki was able to use his appraisal skill and he was able to see there were over a hundred different monsters in the huge stampede that was happening and that was excluding the animals that were deemed peaceful.

While Hyun Ki was looking around, he then noticed some people wearing nothing but a few clothes to cover their body and they had wooden masks with an opening for their mouth and also saw that among the five he saw, two of them held a horn.

When Hyun Ki tried appraising them, it now showed a green panel as, he saw that they were NPCs and their race name was "Ancient Humans" and all of them had an extremely high level which was definitely stronger than Hyun Ki at the moment.

After seeing this, he then went down as he jumped off the tree, then said to them, "Okay, they are definitely not after us but we should move because we might get in the crossfire of this, also be careful, I saw some NPCs behind the stampede.".

He said as they all started to move away from the direction of the stampede, so as they were running, Hyun Ki continued to explain and said, "Also be even more careful when meeting them, just a single one of them is already higher than me.".

Then as he said this, there was suddenly a loud burst of noise from a far and suddenly a dart was shot right in front of Hyun Ki as he then looked at the direction from where it was shot from and saw that it was from another NPC in the trees.

It also seemed like it was holding a blow dart, but as they took a breath, a light blue aura surrounded the NPC and then a huge loud noise could be heard from it's direction and now a dart moving even faster than a bullet should was coming at them.

Hyun Ki was curious at to how powerful it was and so he tried holding out his spirit hand into the direction of where the dart was going and as it hit his arm, a miniature explosion occurred on his arm which knocked back Hyun Ki quite a bit.

The explosion was also able to create a lot of damage to Hyun Ki and so he then started to chug down a bit on his healing potions, as he looked at the direction of the NPC and put back his swords into his inventory and raised his hands.

Which as he did this then said to the rest of them, "They can kill you instantly, put away your weapons and show you mean no harm, this might be the best approach to them." when he said that they all then followed what Hyun Ki did and raised their arms.

The moment they did this, the NPC then stopped as it was about to blow a third dart and as it looked at Hyun and the rest of them, it's eyes now had an energy in it as it started run towards them, while it did that, Ji-Ho then went up to Hyun Ki.

Ji-Ho then asked him, "Hey, what's going on, I don't have any skill that helps me see what's going on here unlike you guys.", he said this as Ju-Won was actually using a sight skill called "Blood Shot Eyes" and Ah-In with a skill called "Angel's Sight.".

Both those skills allowed them to see far away and even make it seem like the NPC was up close and so as Ji-Ho said this to Hyun Ki, he then replied saying, "Use your extreme focus skill and focus it with your eyes then idiot.", he said as he annoyed at Ji-Ho.

After saying that, Ji-Ho then tried it as it was just supposed to be a skill for blacksmithing that allowed him to have an attention to detail but when he tried it before, he still had the same strength of his sight even after activating it.

But he tried it anyway and as he did this, he was actually able to see quite far although not as much as the rest of them, he was able to see much further than before but as he did this, he then said, "I don't think you guys need to use your sight skills anymore.".

Suddenly a huge burst could be heard going at them and when they looked back, the NPC they saw before was already near them and it was going towards them with rapid speed even though it was quite far away even for Hyun Ki to travel.

Once it was it was now closer, it then disappeared from all of their sight and so Hyun Ki tried using his appraisal skill to see where he was and when he did, the NPC was already right beside them even though he was still miles away.

So Hyun Ki then said, "We don't mean, harm, do you understand us?", as he said that the rest of them were confused but then the NPC then revealed itself and said, "You have the same aura as one of our ancestors, are you an avatar?".

When they said that, Hyun Ki asked, "What do you mean?", the NPC then said, "Never mind, the tribal head will deal with that, my name is Mikersh, I am one of the many tribal hunters, follow me, if you could see through my stealth skill which is one of the best in the tribe, you must be good.".

As they said this, all of them followed him as they were going more into the dense jungle and as they continously walking, it just became more and more dense and there wasn't even a sign of it opening up and so they were a bit suspicious.

Although Mikersh noticed this and then said, "This is to throw of any outsiders, I'm only bringing you here because it seems like one of you is an inheritor of our ancestors. more specifically the "Ancient Alchemist" ancestor.".

When they all heard that, Ji-Ho then asked curiously and hoping there was an ancient blacksmith, "So how many ancestors are there and what are their abilities.", as he asked this, Mikersh just replied saying, "Three.".

They continued walking as there was now a silence but in just a bit, the dense jungle immediately opened up as he said, "Here are our three ancestors, the latest one the Ancient Mage, the one before him was the Ancient Swordsman.".

While he said this, he pointed to huge statues and then continued more forward as there were was an even bigger statue and said, "This is our founding ancestor, the Strongest among all of them, the Ancient Alchemist!." he said as the eyes of the statues flashed a light blue color.
