Chapter 84 - First Mission

n
nHe was a man who hated being idle and would rather keep running aimlessly around the entire tribe if that is what it takes to keep him on the move…
nDara looked to the Obun Elders to ask if they had any objection, but they didn't and also seemed to be happy that the tribesmen would also be learning their language and way of life, because not only would that increase the understanding between both parties, it would also increase the level of harmony in the entire tribe…
nHe looked to Aunt Lin and Uncle Min also, and just like the rest, they seemed to have no complaints or takebacks either, except for Aunt Lin who lingered her gaze a little longer than expected…
n
"Alright, then we move to the next topic on the agenda…
" Dara began…
n
"This would be the first missions for our three troops;
"
n
"Troop 1, under the assistance of Uncle Min, would go to the main river that separates the Dark Lands from the Grey Lands, and they are to capture three different species of edible fish from the river…
"
n
"Each specie must have a male and female, and the time limit for this mission is three hours, which means Troop 1 must be back by noon…
"
n
"Troop 2, under the assistance of Ji Chen would head out to find four species of wild beast within the jungle, and all four must be female, and all four must be eatable too, and like Troop 1, you also have three hours to complete these tasks…
"
n
"Now we will move onto the next agenda…
"
nEveryone instantly looked to Dara with a confused expression, they obviously were wondering why a mission wasn't assigned to Troop 3 which was the one Dara himself was on...
nBut they weren't alone either, even Uncle Min and Aunt Lin were also curious about the situation, but none of them voiced it out and neither did Dara comment on it despite clearly knowing how they felt…
n
"Concerning the issue of cultivation resources, I have decided to start with raiding a few Tier 1 Qi Stone Farms, and after testing their strengths, we will be able to determine if these guys are potential sources for our cultivation resources…
"
n
"This mission would be carried out by Troop 3, and is to be completed within three hours…
"
n
"This means every one of us must gather here by noon to give a positive feedback on our missions…
"
n
"Failure isn't an option, and for each troop that fails, the consequences would be borne by all the members of the troop, up till their leaders, thus, I advise everyone to look after everyone within their troops and support one another…
"
n
"Lateness would also not be tolerated, and all missions are to be abandoned whenever time seems to be running out…
"
n
"This is the Dark and Grey Lands, it is fraught with unpredictability and fraught with danger, and as a result, no one would be dispatched to go search for other troops…
"
n
"You meet with a life threatening danger, you return to base immediately, and then we can rally two troops to go face the danger or even all troops if the danger proves to be too difficult to resolve…
" Dara instructed;
n
"Leave no man behind, bodies of dead members must be returned to the base for a proper and worthy burial ceremony…
"
n
"Stay calm and calculative; assess any situation logically before making decisions…
"
n
"This is the Dark and Grey Lands, and your mistakes would definitely be capitalized on by your opponents and enemies…
"
n
"If you meet any wandering person, either Obun or Human, if they are not mischievous or mean bad, rescue them; we are planning on expanding if stronger than we are at the moment, thus, every single extra hand would be appreciated…
" Dara continued;
n
"If the Qi Stones from these Tier 1 Farms are genuine and good, then we might have to raid these farms for cultivation resources, until we can devise a way to manufacture our own with an orthodox and humane approach…
" Dara continued;
n
"But first everyone would take two hours each for preparations, whilst I will move out with Ji Wang and return to the village of sang to see if there any other resources we can gather from there, and we will be back before you move out…
"
n
"First, Second, I want you to map out the most probable location of all these Qi Stone Farms, both for the Tier 1 and Tier 2, the very potential and future of this tribe depends on it, thus, make it as accurate as possible…
"
n
"We have never truly been to other farms except ours which is a Tier 2 Farm which is much closer to the borders of the Land of Light, but we have heard so much about these places and can draw a map of all their general locations…
"
n
"Good, that should be enough, we will also do some scouting based on your map, and then be able to complete them with more details…
" Dara announced before asking once again;
n
"Is there anyone who would like to add to this or suggest a different approach to this?
"
nWhen he saw that no one answered, Dara looked to Aunt Lin and assigned her own duties to her;
n
"You will be in charge of not only looking after the tribe when we are away; you will also be in charge of feeding the entire tribe, and grooming those kids to help the tribe…
"
n
"Also, you and the kids would also be in charge of taking care of the beasts, the farms, cleaning the environment, and finally, entertaining the entire tribe when resting…
"
nDara obviously planned on making use of all the 100 some kids to do one thing or the other that would help reduce the workload and efficiently relieve the group of some responsibilities and duties…
nAunt Lin looked towards him and smiled, but Dara on the other hand simply looked to Ji Wang;
n
"Get everyone ready for my return…
"
nHe said, before dismissing everyone when he returned, whilst Uncle Min went to discuss tactics with the First Elder…
nAunt Lin followed after Dara and when he entered his residence, she followed him and watched Dara pack all his necessary gears to prepare for their own missions;
n
"Why didn't you tell me that you will going on such a dangerous and potentially deadly mission?
" She asked;
n
"If I did, would you have gone in my place?
"
nDara replied leaving Aunt Lin stunned by his response; It was true, no one would have taken the mission if Dara had explained what they were going to be doing during the mission, and that was why he did it that way…
nAunt Lin moved closer to him before hugging him tightly and speaking into his ear;
n
"That place is too dangerous and I can't afford to lose you yet, otherwise who would come take care of me?
"
nAunt Lin grabbed Dara's hand and slipped it beneath her robes and into the spot between her thighs and by the time Dara removed his finger, they were all coated in her love juices;
n
"Can you see that… Promise me you would come back to deal with this for me?
"
nShe asked before burying Dara's face in between her two boobs;
n
"You can come into my room tonight, and I will be ready for you…
"
nDara said and walked away from her, but just as their held hands were about to free themselves, Aunt Lin grabbed it and held him back;
"Won't you a least give me a goodbye kiss?
"
nDara paused and sighed, before turning around and then grabbing Aunt Lin by her waist, as he pulled her in and then planted a good kiss on her lips, and just as Aunt Lin began to get aroused and into a sexual mood, Dara broke the kiss, walked away this time, but not before standing at the entrance and replying;
n
"When I return tonight, you can come relieve your frustrations.
"
nThen he left, and Aunt Lin had no choice but to sigh with a helpless and craving frown as she sat on Dara's bed and saw one of his shirts to the side which she grabbed, and headed into Dara's bath before squirting and squishy sounds began to float out of Dara's bath alongside the moans of a lady experiencing optimum pleasure…
nDara on the other hand had to leave on time, or he might as well be moving with a metal pole in his pants all through the day, but after reaching his troops, his mind switched gears and entered full mission mode;
n
"Are you ready?
" Dara looked over to Ji Wang and asked;
n
"Yeah, we all have our weapons and are ready to move out anytime…
"
n
"Good, we move out now…
"
nDara spoke before walking through his men, inspecting them in the process;
nHe had carried a bow and quiver along since none of these men have begun training in archery yet, which in turn means he would be the one to do the support through archery whilst engaging in melee battles where necessary…
nDara spent about another thirty minutes discussing their manner of approaching the mission with Ji Wang before they then began to move out with Ji Wang by his side and his men in a lineup of six each behind him…
nBut just as they almost reached the massive gate that now serves as the entrance to the tribe, he saw Aunt Lin with a slight smile with almost 100 kids lined up on either side of the road, giving the troop a good ovation to boost their morale as they head out on missions;
n
"This is a really good idea!
"
n
"You don't say…
"
nJi Wang and Dara commented as they moved through the rumbling applause of these little kids who were beaming with smiles all through the time it took the troop to reach the massive gates…
nThen when they got to the gate, the tribesmen on the first floor of the turrets, pulled a rope from within their turrets which pulled the gates wide open with a loud rumble…
nThese gates were extremely heavy and were made by simply stacking about a dozen massive tree trunks atop each other, as everyone within the tribe saw Dara's troop leave the tribe on what is to be their first mission…
n
"It's kind of nostalgic heading back to the village after four months now, albeit on a different circumstance…
" Ji Wang added…
