Lightning Is the Only Way

Orthar and Gravis split up as they left the hyenas' territory. Gravis went back to do whatever he was doing all day while Orthar informed the Tribe about their new member and the recruits that would be coming in about a day.

Silva was surprised and nervous when he heard the news. He wouldn't be able to keep someone so powerful under his control when they joined. Liza would be a level two Lord and was way more powerful than anyone except Gravis. She surely wouldn't listen to him.

Yet, Orthar calmed him down by telling him that Gravis wouldn't overlook something like that. Gravis obviously had his own plans for her. Putting her into a normal army was just too big of a waste.

When Silva heard that, he calmed down. Yet, he was also frustrated at his own lack of power. He had gotten enough corpses to become a level one Lord in this fight, and he would be able to eat them by tomorrow. At that point, he would finally become a Lord, a dream he had had for a long time.

Yet, as soon as he achieved that dream, an overpowering new member joined the Tribe that Silva couldn't even think about controlling. One had to know that Orthar was the strongest member of the Tribe beside Gravis, and Orthar had said that he didn't even have a chance against her, and that was considering that she was still a level one Lord.

It would take the Land Camp around two days to eat and digest all these corpses, and according to Silva's calculations, they would get five more Lords in the Land Camp, excluding him. Luckily for him, Shira knew nothing about this. After all, the whole Land Camp was still inside the hyenas' territory. This would be a mighty surprise for her.

Like this, a day passed where the Land Camp only rested and ate inside the hyenas' territory. Though, it couldn't be counted as the hyenas' territory anymore. It would become part of the River Tribe in no time. In actuality, the fungus was already converting the new territory into theirs. A lot of wide and deep rivers could already be seen stretching through the land.

Whoooom!

A one-hundred-meter long beast shot over the resting Land Camp with incredible speeds. Most of the beasts didn't even notice it. Yet, Silva had already reached the level of a Lord, and he had noticed the "trespasser."

Silva sighed. "The new member of our Tribe just passed over us," Silva said as he scratched his chin with his new claws.

Silva had seen the advantage that arms had when he had fought Gravis back then. Ever since then, he had planned to change his body. Right now, his body was only around a hundred-meters-long, half the length of his previous body.

On top of that, he had two long and thin arms ending in powerful claws. His whole body was relatively thin, which would allow him to evade attacks easier and use it to grab his enemy like a constrictor snake. His long arms would be able to defend him from attacks and grab other parts of his enemy.

The Land Camp waited for another day after this occurrence until they finally returned. They had to get everything ready for the new recruits.
