Chapter 857
During this period, there were supervisors and knife-wielding troops constantly monitoring them closely. They even started searching to ensure that no troops would take the opportunity to hide the treasures.
The muscular man from the Mastiff Dragon Tribe who had been in charge of commanding the Army walked over. After taking a glance at the harvest, he nodded in satisfaction.
alright, keep the net. You can all spread out!
After dispersing the troops, the strong man ordered people to row the flat raft and stepped on it with the patriarch’s confidant. They began to shuttle through the waterway made of garbage ships and headed straight to a huge tree in the distance!
By right, there shouldn’t be any huge trees on this vast ocean.
However, there was indeed a giant tree in the Mastiff Dragon Tribe. It grew right next to the huge garbage ship that was more than thirty meters tall and had seven floors.
This giant garbage ship had been built for countless years to reach its current scale. From a distance, it looked like a tall building!
From the brawny man’s point of view, he could only see that the giant tree was exuberant with green leaves and branches. The branches hung down like silk sashes, and red and green fruits hung from them!
Around the fruit tree, there were armed guards, preventing anyone from approaching.
If anyone dared to steal the fruit, they would have to suffer an extremely severe punishment if they were caught. They might even be turned into fertilizer for the tree!
This had happened before, and not just once.
Every time he saw these fruits, the sour and bitter taste of the fruits would appear in the burly man’s mind, and he would drool uncontrollably.
Many years ago, when the old patriarch was still alive, he had eaten it twice, and it was still fresh in his memory.
Even if he knew what nutrients the fruit absorbed, he did not have any disgust. After all, in this Water World, it was already very difficult to eat fresh fruits, so why would he have any scruples?
unfortunately, these fruits belong to the new tribe leader and will not be given to the tribesmen easily. If they want to taste them again, I don’t know when they will be able to!
Thinking of this, the burly man revealed a trace of unwillingness, but he quickly disappeared.
As the raft continued to row, the distance to the giant garbage ship where the clan leader was was also getting closer and closer. The huge fruit tree was also completely revealed in front of the burly man.
The giant tree had twisted roots and intertwined joints. Due to the lack of soil, most of it was exposed to the air and was tied up by ropes and other items.
As for the roots under the tree, they were stuck in a mud-like pond, emitting a rotten smell.
When the burly man passed by, he happened to see a naked body being thrown directly into the mud Pond and slowly sinking in.
This was a tradition of the Mastiff Dragon Tribe. All the corpses of the deceased would be thrown into the mud Pond and turned into nutrients for the giant tree to absorb!
Who knew how many corpses had sunk into this muddy pond in the past years, and how many of them were alive?
Other than that, there were also some troops squatting by the pond, grinding some stones and concrete into powder and scattering it into the mud Pond!
They were items selected from the treasures spat out by the treasure spewing beast. Their greatest value was that they were ground into soil and used to cultivate plants and trees.
Even if they didn’t have any nutrients, the Mastiff Dragon Tribe would do everything they could to turn them into normal soil, and they would never throw them away easily.
Because in the water world, soil was very valuable, even more precious than food. It was an important resource that no tribe would easily miss!
The brawny man was expressionless. He had long been accustomed to such things. He only glanced at it and turned his head back to continue looking at the waterway in front of him.
Some children swimming in the water quickly climbed onto the nearby garbage ships when they saw the rafts coming over, looking at the debris with curiosity and greed.
They were still young, but they already knew that each of these seemingly random items could be exchanged for a lot of food.
It was a pity that these were all the property of the tribe, and the right to dispose of them completely belonged to the tribe leader!
“Bang!”
There was a slight sound of impact. The flat raft hit the dock, which was pieced together by all kinds of junk. Then, a group of men came over, put all the junk into the basket, and lifted it up to walk toward the tall garbage ship.
After placing the big baskets under the garbage ship, a few ropes slid down and hung on the handles of the big baskets, pulling them up directly.
The brawny man and the supervisor also quickly climbed up the steps on the side, and then took the big baskets to the top area of the garbage ship.
Before they entered the room that was obviously exquisitely decorated, they heard a burst of women’s laughter, mixed with a man’s voice.
The brawny man frowned and walked in.
It was a Hall with a floor covered with soft fabric, and the walls were decorated with all kinds of selected treasures, which looked dazzling.
In the surrounding corners, there were some plants planted in flower pots. The flowers were gorgeous and the fruits were plentiful.
In the water world, these items were very valuable. Not to mention the travelers on the sea, even the tribesmen rarely had them.
However, all of them were the private property of the clan leader, and they were placed here to show off the clan leader’s wealth!
At this moment, a chubby, fair-skinned man was lying in the middle of a dozen beautiful naked women. He was teasing them while tasting the food that they brought to his mouth.
Among them, there were fruits that the burly man couldn’t stop reminiscing about. They were thrown everywhere, and many of them didn’t want them after taking a bite.
At this moment, the fat man’s big hands were wandering around, and from time to time, they would fall on one of the women. Then, the woman’s delicate Humph and the man’s smug laughter could be heard.
A cold glint flashed through the burly man’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared as he knelt down to the man.
Lord clan leader, the treasures have been collected. Please take a look!
The chubby clan leader snorted coldly and slowly sat up.
“Let me see it, but be careful not to dirty my floor, or I won’t let you off!”
The Mastiff Dragon Tribe leader tried his best to straighten his body. He glanced at the brawny man who was half-kneeling in front of him, and a trace of disgust and impatience flashed in his eyes.
“Yes, chief!”
Hearing this, the burly man stood up from the ground and ordered someone to spread out a blanket. Then, he placed the items on it one by one.
In fact, before these items were brought in, the soil and stones could be picked out. After all, they had only one purpose. Most of the time, they would be ground into powder and used as soil.
However, perhaps the chief was worried that some of the tribesmen would take the opportunity to hide the benefits, so he strictly ordered that no tribesmen were allowed to pick and choose these miscellaneous items before he had seen them.
If anyone dared to disobey, they would be severely punished by the clan leader!
As the tribesmen displayed the miscellaneous items they had obtained, the clan leader would occasionally pick out some items that caught his eye and classify them as his personal property.
If the women beside them saw anything they liked, they would also ask for it in a coquettish voice. At that time, the clan leader would also readily let them choose.
When the brawny man standing at the side saw this scene, the disgust in his heart grew stronger, but he did not show it on his face.
The chief of the Mastiff Dragon Tribe only waved his hand after he had finished picking through all the miscellaneous items. He then ordered the brawny man, &Nbsp; ” send the rest of the treasures to the elders. After they have seen them, the rest will be stored in the tribe’s Treasury!
The brawny man nodded, but he was very clear in his heart that it would be good if half of these treasures were left after the elders had seen them.
And among the remaining items, almost half of them were of no great use. They could only be used to repair the garbage ship and grind it into soil.
Therefore, in the Mastiff Dragon Tribe, the tribe leader and elders were extremely rich. Their private treasure vaults were almost filled with good things, while the ordinary members had to wait a long time before they could even get the materials to repair the garbage ship.
However, no one dared to raise any objections, because this would anger the tribe leader and those elders. In serious cases, they might be directly expelled from the tribe, not even giving them a garbage ship!
Under such circumstances, there was basically no possibility of survival!
As soon as she brought people to carry the big basket out of the room, the delicate laughter sounded again, and it was even more unscrupulous than before.
The brawny man clenched his fists and frowned. After a while, he slowly relaxed.
Sighing helplessly, he walked towards the residence of the elders.
