After rushing up the slope, Su Lu and Geli indeed saw a confrontation unfold.

The attacking party was a group of cowboys riding fine horses, shooting with their rifles and shotguns. They were wearing pitch-black scarves, which seemed to be a certain emblem.

The other side was composed of leaders from the Gaosuo tribe. Most of these natives had tattoos and wore minimal clothing. They were fighting back with spears, bows and arrows.

Without a doubt, the scale of victory was tipping towards the cowboys, and in no time, it turned into a massacre.

“It’s ‘Butcher’ Gered’s men…”

Geli took one look, signaled Su Lu to slowly back off, her face hardened with gritted teeth: “I recognize their emblem!”

‘”Butcher’ Gered? The first wanted criminal with an A-class bounty?” Su Lu immediately recollected: “So, he has so many subordinates?”

“Of course … they constitute the core of a bandit gang, numbering hundreds strong! They rob bank vaults, steam trains… practically everything evil!”

Geli’s expression was one of disgust, illustrating her deep sense of justice. “But… why would they come to the protected area to massacre the Gaosuo natives?” Su Lu wondered.

While such gang indeed was infamous, there were limits to how low they could They could not make headlines by producing a mass slaughter, let alone hosting sacrifices to the Evil God. Otherwise, they would have already drawn the Federation’s attention and targeted for a crack-down.

A real underworld organization should blur the line between legality and illegality.

Those who shoot over their head, unless they manage to establish a political regime through military force, don’t have an alternative path to tread. However, that would mean becoming the insurgent army and if they ultimately succeeded, they would form a new government, which is nearly impossible.

So Su Lu did not quite understand the behaviors of these bandits. There was no need for it! It would just attract enmity.

“I don’t know… But surely nothing good!” Geli had an instinctive sense: “Perhaps they have discovered a tribe with plenty of wealth and treasures and intend to forcefully seize them?”

If they had massacred a small town in the outside world, they would immediately attract headlines and probably even bring on the legendary Occupational Person, then Gered’s days would be numbered.

But in the nature reserve, targeting the Gaosuo natives, maybe no one would even notice.

“That makes sense!”

Su Lu nodded in agreement.

“You… still want to go to the reserve?” Geli asked, her eyes reflecting doubt.

Gered’s orders to his men to block the Gaosuo people here must have a purpose. Coincidentally at this point, this man who claimed to be a folklorist, but actually looked more like an adventurer, was also here. It seemed all too convenient.

‘Could he be a federal detective, on a confidential mission?’

She couldn’t help but imagine.

If Su Lu knew, he would definitely roll his eyes and reply: ‘Miss, you’ve read too many novels…’

He thought for a moment and responded: “Indeed, the risk has increased, but I don’t plan to give up… as long as you lead me to a Gaosuo tribe, our contract will be considered fulfilled.’ “No, I must take you back!”

Geli said angrily.

Feeling her tone was incorrect, she added, “You still owe me half the payment!

You also have to go and prove to Konde that I escorted you back.”

‘Is she… worried for me? The hypnosis invasion of the Mental Realm is like a god-given technique for singles. But… will it create affection or fear? It’s uncertain, like last time with Jessila…’

Su Lu said nothing: “Alright… let’s sneak behind these guys… we should be close to a tribe from here.”

The [Odd Technician] occupation has high spiritual requirements, which he is far from fulfilling, so he must find another way.

The mental power potion formula of the [Witch Doctor] is a good choice.

Following the numerous horse tracks on the ground, Geli and Su Lu quickly found a Primitive tribe.

All along the path, Su Lu saw many Gaosuo natives hanged on withered branches beside the roads.

It was evident that Gered was determined to obliterate this tribe. This meant he was prepared to kill hundreds or even thousands of people!

“Something’s not right, not right at all!”

The deeper they ventured, the graver Geli’s expression became.

Gered’s gang had practically mobilized all its forces this time.

Su Lu’s heart was precariously lifted as well.

Once they drew near to the tribe, they tied their horses to one side and sneaked on foot.

Crouching behind a hill, they could immediately see a tribe of Gaosuo natives on the plains.

Their lives were incredibly primitive, with only wooden fences and tents.

At the moment, they were facing a gruesome massacre.

“It’s fortunate that their guards outside were distracted because all their forces were concentrated within the tribes. Otherwise, they might have spotted us!”

Geli whispered.

“I understand…”

Su Lu was intently watching the ongoing battle, not taking his eyes off for an instant.

The strong sense of spirit allowed him to sense several powerful forces.

‘Right, a strong bandit gang of hundreds can’t just have Gered as the only

Transcendent!’

“Kill the invaders!”

Right when the bandits invaded the center of the tribe, Su Lu heard a roar.

The person yelling was not using Common Hebrew, but the ‘Gulam Language’!

The one who shouted was a warrior in his forties, covered in barbarian totem tattoos.

Bare-chested, he held a long spear and roared in anger.

Roar!

As he roared, a totem on his body lit up and faintly a Black Bear’s shadow appeared.

Thud!

He quickly threw the spear he was holding.

With the power of the totem, the spear was hurled as if shot from a crossbow, it pierced through a bandit along with his horse.

“Ah… don’t be surprised, this is just your… hallucination! Yes, hallucination!”

Next to Su Lu, Geli thought he was shocked from witnessing a Transcendent and hastily explained in a fluster.

“There’s no need for that… as a scholar who constantly deals with eerie local customs, do you think I don’t know about the world of the Transcendents?” Su Lu waved his hand.

At this point, he saw many more Totem Warriors rushing out, engaging with the bandits.

Unfortunately, despite their strong combat abilities, their bodies couldn’t withstand bullets!

Ordinary people armed with firearms, provided they have enough numbers and are well trained, they can definitely kill first-order and second-order Occupational Persons who are not very special.

In Su Lu’s view, in this tribe, the only third-order Occupational Person was the huge man at the beginning. Judging from the multicolored feather crown he was wearing, he seemed to be the chieftain.

But at this moment, the chieftain was surrounded by two Occupational Persons, his body covered in blood.

“Who are those two?”

Those capable of besieging a third-order Occupational Person were most likely third-order ones themselves.

“They should be Gered’s confidants, ‘Iron Fist’ Rus and ‘Assassin’ Ali! Both are notorious criminals on the wanted list!” In just a glance, Geli confirmed..
