Chapter 181 - 181: Continuation of peace
Meanwhile, back on Earth, the grand arena of the Asura Empire was a cacophony of mixed emotions—gasps, shouts, and the nervous murmurs of disbelief from the Earthlings who had gathered to witness the survival event.
The vast screens, each displaying a live feed of the Stonehooves Tribe, flickered with scenes of the tribe's unlikely success story.
At the center of it all was the Asura girl, a young announcer who had been tasked with narrating the unfolding events to the Earth's population.
But now, her voice, once loud and confident, was lost.
She stood before her console, her eyes fixed on the screen, her lips parted slightly as if
They moved with purpose, their massive, muscular bodies and the crude armor they wore glinting in the light.
They were hauling more resources, piling branches and logs near the makeshift kitchens where Lyerin's tribe continued to feast.
The Asura girl, still in a state of speechlessness, suddenly snapped back to attention, her eyes widening.
"What… what is happening now?" she exclaimed, her voice trembling with shock.
She pointed toward the screen as if trying to direct everyone's attention, though it was already glued to the unfolding scene.
"The Raging Pigs… they're coming out again! But… but they're… they're not attacking. They're… they're working?"
Gasps filled the arena as the Raging Pigs began to systematically arrange the new piles of resources they had brought.
They stacked logs carefully, building crude barricades and fortifications around the edges of the tribe's center.
Some of the pigs even helped the humans in turning spits, their massive hooves surprisingly dexterous as they assisted in the cooking efforts.
"They're... they're helping?" the Asura girl stammered, unable to believe her own eyes.
"This... this doesn't make any sense! The Raging Pigs are notorious for their mindless rage, but… but they're acting like they're part of the tribe now!"
The audience was stunned into silence, watching the surreal cooperation between beasts and humans.
The once-feared Raging Pigs, who were supposed to be the scourge of any weak tribe, were now behaving like trained workers under Lyerin's command.
It was as if Lyerin's influence extended beyond mere survival tactics; it was a complete domination of the battlefield—no, of the very nature of the creatures around him.
"What kind of magic is this?!" someone in the crowd finally shouted, voicing the incredulity that everyone felt. "What has Lyerin done to them?"
The Asura girl's mind raced, her heart pounding as she tried to make sense of the unfolding events. Lyerin wasn't just surviving—he was thriving.
He was bending the rules of this deadly game to his will, and with each passing moment, the narrative shifted further in his favor.
The image of the Stonehooves Tribe, once pitiful and weak, was now one of a formidable stronghold, teeming with life and unlikely allies.
For the first time, the Asura girl's confident facade cracked, revealing the raw, unfiltered astonishment beneath.
"This… this isn't just survival," she whispered, almost too softly to be heard. "This is… Lyerin's domain. And everyone else… is just playing in it."
The arena fell silent, with only the crackle of the tribe's cooking fires and the distant, muted sounds of the maze echoing through the screens.
All eyes were on the Raging Pigs, on Lyerin, and on the impossible reality that was slowly dawning on them all—Lyerin was no longer just a participant in this game.
He was the game itself, and every move, every strategy, was his to command.
