Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 1226: Large Scale Tide

Chapter 1226: Large Scale Tide

Lin Mu, Elder Niji and Head Warrior Kulo successfully managed to escape and didn't need to clash with the Chasm Beasts again. They had run away at the right time and thus the Chasm Beasts didn't attack them.

There were some strange interactions among the Chasm Beasts when they reached the surface. They grunted at each other, as if communicating in some manner. Lin Mu was sure that they had seen them, at least one of them might have, but even then they were not pursued.

'This is different from what Elder Niji said. The Chasm Beasts pursue any creature as long as they sense them. We were clearly discovered and yet they did not do this?' Lin Mu thought to himself.

He wondered what might be the difference this time around, because he doubted the long term records and observations of the Haima tribe might be wrong about something basic like this. He could see them not knowing about the spatial cracks, but this was something anyone would figure out after a while.

Especially the Haima Tribe, who had been clas.h.i.+ng against the Chasm Beasts for thousands of years and had devised several methods of avoiding them.

"Elder Niji, have the Haima tribe members seen the Chasm Beasts come out of the Broken Chasm before?" Lin Mu questioned after they reached the outpost.

"Yes, they've done so several times." Elder Niji said.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows and told Elder Niji about what he had noticed.

"This is strange… I'm sure they don't act like this." Elder Niji was surprised.

Head Warrior Kulo also asked what Lin Mu had said and Elder Niji explained to him. Hearing this, though, the warrior had an expression of remembrance on his face.

"[email protected]^%##&" Head Warrior Kulo said in confusion.

Elder Niji was surprised by his words, and Lin Mu wondered what he said.

"Head Warrior Kulo says that he has seen this before." Elder Niji translated for Lin Mu.

"Really? Can he recall the details about it?" Lin Mu questioned.

Elder Niji nodded his head and explained what Head Warrior Kulo said. After about ten minutes, Lin Mu finally had slightly better understanding of the Chasm Beasts.

Turns out the last time Head Warrior had seen this was nearly a hundred years ago. And in that year a large scale tide of Chasm Beasts had appeared. A Beast Tide of that level was rare, only happened randomly.

Even in the long history of the Haima Tribe, such a large scale tide was only witnessed 13 times.

This gave Lin Mu a guess about what it might be related to.

'If the Chasm Beasts acting like that is really the early signs of a large scale tide like that, then we need to get ready for it.' Lin Mu thought.

He expressed his concern to Elder Niji and the man was shocked. Head Warrior Kulo also felt like it might really be the case as Lin Mu had said. Besides, even if it was not so, they would much rather spend some extra resources and take the precaution rather than waiting for the large scale tribe to arrive.

"I'll get the warriors to prepare. If a large scale tribe is really coming, then we need to reinforce the defenses of the tribe." Elder Niji spoke.

"Even more than the current level?" Lin Mu asked, as he knew that finding the tribe and entering it was quite difficult.

"Yes. Every time there was a large scale tide like this, a few Chasm Beasts managed to enter the tribe. They either smelled us out, or stumbled across a fissure that took them to the peripheral caves of the tribe." Elder Niji explained.

"I see… then I'll help you with it then." Lin Mu said. "I'll set up some formation arrays before that." He offered.

"Formation arrays? You can make formation arrays?!" Elder Niji was surprised once again.

The Haima tribe certainly had the information about formation arrays and knew how powerful they could be. After all the many kingdoms and empires were protected by them. Some of them had even seen the people that were exiled here use them a few times before.

"Yes, I can. While I can't guarantee they will hold up against a bigger Chasm Beast, the ones on the level of head Warrior Kulo should be unable to get in." Lin Mu stated.

"That should be enough." Elder Niji nodded his head.

He'd take anything at this point. In fact, just knowing that a large scale Chasm Beast tide was coming in advance was a great benefit to them. They could easily reduce the injuries and victims in the tribe with it.

Upon returning to the tribe, Elder Niji quickly gave out orders and mobilized the entire tribe. Head Warrior Kulo also gathered the warriors and went around to set up some preliminary barriers around the possible entrances of the tribe.

Another part of the tribe members were tasked with the duty of ensuring they had enough supplies to last for the duration of this tide. While they certainly had enough food in the form of Stone Flesh Mushrooms, there was still the issue of water.

There was enough water in the tribe right now and they could take more from the underground spring, but if the incoming tide caused tremors and damaged the aquifer that supplied the spring, things would become tough for the tribe.

Thus, the tribe members started filling up the reservoir in one of the areas as well as all the vessels that they had. They wanted to have enough saved in reserve so that even if the spring dried up later.

While the tribe did all this, Lin Mu returned to his residence. He needed to make a few components first before he could deploy the Formation array after all.

"For an area this big, I'll need quite a lot." Lin Mu realized it was his first time setting up such large scale a formation array.

They didn't know how much time they had, thus Lin Mu started his work without a pause.
