Actually, before this, Austin had already dispatched beastman scouts to the border to gather information, observing the movements of the Blood Claw Tribe to prepare the Dragon Nest Tribe in advance.
However, due to time constraints, even though the Dragon Nest Beastmen infiltrated the Tribe Alliance, it was difficult to obtain high-level information. The only known fact was that the Beastman Alliance and the human border army had ceased all warfare beneath the Bloody Great Wall, with both sides in a standoff for nearly a month without any action.
It seemed like the human high command and the Tribe Alliance's high command had reached some sort of agreement and were in discussions.
The atmosphere at the Bloody Border remained tense with opposing forces facing off, though no battles had transpired.
The entire border had plunged into this eerie calm.
Regarding what had transpired between the high-ranking officials, and what the future holds for the Bloody Border, the Dragon Nest Tribe's scouts couldn't get in touch with it at all. The beastman high command seemed to deliberately conceal the news, wrapping the situation in layers of mystery.
Even the extent of the battlefield between the Beastman Alliance and the undead zombies could not be detailed. It was only known that the Tribe Alliance had recently redeployed a significant amount of forces, but the details were unknown.
Presently, the Dragon Nest Beastman scouts had access only to low-level personnel within the Tribe Alliance, with virtually no understanding of high-level information. It would take a significant amount of time to reach the upper echelons.
"According to those people, the emergence of the undead zombies was merely the result of a mutated evil spirit causing a wave, but it could never be that simple. Otherwise, it would only be the pyramidal undead creatures eroding the land, turning all that they invade into wasteland. Such destructive plundering of the earth couldn't have happened without a Legendary figure stepping in to stop it, but the undead zombies still occupied an incredibly vast region, threatening and destroying the living environment for millions of beastmen, forcing them to relocate without any action being taken. Everything is definitely not that simple!"
Regarding the power a Legendary Level could possess, as Austin's level improved and the release of his inner bloodline increased, he increasingly felt the terror of that power.
The endless sea of undead zombies might have some effect on Silver and Gold Level extraordinary beings.
But once a Legendary figure intervened, their vast power was enough to completely crush these corrupted creatures into dust.
With the sea of undead zombies' erosive nature on the earth, even a Legendary Level habitat would encounter the influence of this intense plundering. However, so far, the Legendary Level creatures within the Kawa Great Forest have made no moves to eradicate the endless undead zombies, which explains a lot.
Either the force behind these events possesses an incredibly terrifying power that even makes Legendary Level beings wary.
Or perhaps those Legendary creatures have ulterior motives, hoping to achieve something amidst this upheaval, with certain interests making those beings indifferent to the imminent destruction of the Kawa Great Forest.
Or perhaps a Legendary Level entity had acted, but Austin was unaware amid this vast and boundless front line...
Numerous conjectures, coupled with the anomalies at the Bloody Border, have made everything feel enveloped in a shroud of mystery.
"Forget it, no matter what schemes are afoot, the most important thing now is to lay a solid foundation, vigorously develop one's power, and possess enough strength to protect oneself amidst the unknown upheaval."
"The intelligence agency cannot fall behind. We need to assign people for special construction to prevent such blind situations in the future."
After organizing various clues in his mind for a long time, Austin, sitting cross-legged on a high platform, had an inexplicable gleam in his eyes.
"The Kawa Great Forest...not simple at all..."
The suspected lake reservoir transformed from an impact crater beside the Dragon Nest, those unknown magic artifacts, scattered miscellaneous remnants within the Beastman Tribe—all elements that should not appear in this Barbaric Land—all indicated that the Kawa Great Forest was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
There was that Gold Level Great Mage, as well as Edward's mercenaries following in the teacher's footsteps—they all seemed to be searching for something.
The Kawa Great Forest harbors some secrets.
Austin himself had once sensed a miraculous and indescribable power in the world beneath the lake reservoir.
Originally, he planned to dive in for investigation once he reached the Gold Level.
However, with the current situation the Dragon Nest Tribe faced, he needed to preserve his complete combat power. The place beneath the lake reservoir could only be explored once the situation stabilized.
Next, the Dragon Nest Tribe would focus entirely on preparing post-war arrangements and getting ready for the impending cold winter.
And with each command issued by Austin, the entire Dragon Nest Tribe began to move, executing his plan—distributing forces, transporting supplies, fortifying positions, striving to complete the temporary bases before the cold winter arrived, and also initiating training for intelligence agents.
...
Just as the Dragon Nest Tribe started engaging in post-war organization, within a secluded mountain canyon in the Bloody Border Region.
A massive waterfall descended from the sky, with thousands of tons of river water crashing down from a thousand-meter-high cliff, resembling a heavenly river pouring down. Its formidable power even suppressed the air, producing colossal rumbling sounds akin to ten-thousand-thunder rolling.
At this moment, beneath the waterfall.
A towering figure stood at the gorge's mouth amidst the crashing white waves, standing firm under the unknown thousands of tons of pressure, issuing an earth-shattering roar.
"Roar!!!"
Within the gigantic roar, the air seemed to tremble as a surge of invisible energy suddenly exploded from that massive body, causing white water splashes to splatter in all directions, accompanied by a shockwave visible to the naked eye sweeping out.
In the next instant, the figure clenched its fists, and with immense palms like millstones raised towards the sky.
"Ooh la la la!!!!"
Two iron-like crimson arms punched repeatedly towards the descending majestic waterfall, striking faster and faster, until only afterimages could be seen. Each strike released Fighting Qi, piercing through the massive water flow, rolling upwards into the sky!
One punch, two punches, three punches... the colossal water flow and spray were shattered by the frightening Fighting Qi, ultimately forming a vacuum area tens of meters high at the top. The countless tons of turbulent water flow were also smashed into fragments by the terrifying power!
As the figure used human strength to contend against the majestic force of nature, a nearby procession, led by a figure exuding an awful aura of majesty, approached slowly,
A flag fluttering in the wind beside them bore the imprint of a huge, menacing blood claw, seemingly tearing through the sky.
