The plunder of the heavens begins with the Spirit Cage.

Nalway observed carefully, noticing the envy and longing on their faces. He smiled knowing that the long-term deal was now secure.

And indeed, shortly after arriving at the anchorage, the Cloud Peak tribesmen, who had been notified in advance, excitedly came aboard the ship with their belongings to trade.

When Nar's crew displayed all the goods they had brought, it elicited gasps of amazement from the crowd.

The smooth, soft brocade was spread out on the deck, shimmering and radiant;

A sharp and lightweight iron dagger, a small and practical flint, sturdy and durable clothing, sweet and fragrant fruit wine, and ceramic ware decorated with exquisite patterns...

The sight of these exquisite items, unlike anything he had ever seen before, made Yun Dingdingluo stare in disbelief. He instinctively crowded forward, afraid that if he was a step too late, they would all be snatched up.

The children chattered excitedly, pointing at the brightly colored candies and the wild little toys.

The woman stroked the smooth brocade and exquisite porcelain, her eyes filled with delight.

The able-bodied Na'vi surrounded the exquisite iron tools and weapons, caressing them with obvious affection and constantly gesturing and asking questions of the crew.

After Etucon happily exchanged a large amount of products with his wife and daughter, his gaze toward Narway became increasingly kind and ardent.

"Friend, please be sure to attend our banquet tonight!"

“That’s for sure!” Nalway’s smile deepened.

The items that Cloudfall traded to him were more than enough for him to produce three times as many products.

Taking advantage of the other party's pleasant mood, Nalvi stepped forward and solemnly introduced the two humans who had just come out of the cabin beside him.

"Chief Etukang, let me introduce Bai Yuekui, a Sky Clan member, who is standing beside me. She is one of the elders of the Sky Clan."

The man beside her is her assistant, Zhou Tai.

“Sky people~” Etukang squinted, looking at the white-haired woman and the man who only reached half of his body in front of him with a puzzled expression.

The two were strangely equipped with sophisticated exoskeletons that he couldn't discern, and transparent masks covered their heads, making them indeed resemble the Sky People the Wind Merchants had described.

The story of what happened in the Omatikaya Forest region has spread throughout most of Pandora over the years.

The greed and destructiveness of the Sky People are well-known.

Therefore, he looked at Narway with a strange expression, as if to say, "What's the deal with the news that you Windwalkers spread and now you've brought in a Skyman elder?"

Narway coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment, and then briefly explained that there were good and bad people among the Sky People.

He explained again, “Chieftain, these brocades, ironware, porcelain, and sharp blades before you…”

"All of them were made by the Sky People using our materials."

"Elder Bai Yuekui came with peace and friendship."

The experiences of the Na'vi people in Omatikaya are all oral accounts; other Na'vi tribes who have never seen humans have not directly experienced the persecution they have suffered.

After listening to Narvi's explanation and Hofd's nod, Etukang's stern face quickly broke into a smile, and he warmly invited Bai Yuekui to visit his tribe.

Bai Yuekui exchanged a few polite words, then gently asked, "Chief Etukang, I wonder if your Cloud Peak tribe worships a sacred tree?"

"Why are you asking this?" Etukon's expression turned cold.

"Please don't misunderstand, I meant no harm." Bai Yuekui looked at Etukang with her clear eyes.

“Where I come from, there are also people like ‘Eva’.”

But unlike Eva's gentleness and tolerance, that being is slowly destroying the home we've lived in for tens of thousands of years.

"Chief Etukang, I have not come to spy or desecrate."

I simply wanted to seek Eva's help, hoping to communicate with Her about how to resist destruction and invasion.

Bai Yuekui spoke with utmost sincerity and honesty, but Aitukang, with his simple, primitive mindset, failed to perceive any falsehood in his words.

Instead, they were shocked by the existence of someone who shared the same status as Eva.

No wonder some sky people came to invade their homeland.

Having figured all this out, he looked at Bai Yuekui with a hint of pity in his eyes.

But the sacred tree is the most sacred and central forbidden area for all Na'vi, and no outsider can enter it.

This has been the long-standing rule, so Etucon stiffly shook his head.

He declined, saying, "I'm sorry, I can't make that decision."

Elder Bai Yuekui, whether you can contact Eva is something I need to explain to the priest.

"At most two days. If you're not in a hurry, Elder, you might as well attend tonight's banquet first."

"Then I'll have to trouble you~" Seeing the other party's displeasure and wariness, Bai Yuekui could only nod slightly and consider the matter further.

Narway stepped forward with a smile to smooth things over, and a few lighthearted words eased the tense atmosphere.

Etukan stared at the strangely shaped metal weapons at the waists and in the hands of the guards on the ship.

Thinking of the news that the Ash Clan was waging war, annexing tribes, and committing brutal massacres, he couldn't help but wonder about the Thunder Spear that Narway had previously promoted.

Although the Cloud Top Clan lives peacefully on floating islands shrouded in clouds, their ambitions are never deterred by distance.

Once the flames of war spread, even the most fortified floating fortresses could not stop the Ash Clan, who had conquered numerous tribes.

"Narway, is the Thunder Spear your guards are carrying... really more powerful than a bow and arrow?"

“Of course!” Narway’s eyes lit up slightly. Before he could even guide her, the other party was already impatient.

It seems we need to publicize the horrors of the Ash Clan more to instill unease and panic.

Narway beckoned to Reed, the captain of the guards: "Reed, bring me the gun!"

Reed strode forward and quickly handed a bolt-action rifle to Nalway.

"Chief Etukang, this Thunder Spear does not require brute force to draw the bow; it can be used for close combat and ranged attacks."

It is a weapon that combines a bow and arrow with a spear.

All you need to do is load this tiny bullet, pull the trigger here, and it will penetrate animal hide, hardwood, and even rock from a great distance…

Etukang leaned closer for a closer look, his eyes filled with curiosity and wariness.

Narvi didn't say much, only making a gesture of invitation: "This way, please. I'll demonstrate for the clan leader."

The group walked to an open area, and Nalway gestured to a hardwood target standing in the distance, raised his rifle, and aimed steadily.

"boom--!"

A sharp crack startled the nearby tribesmen, who all turned around as the bullet instantly pierced a deep hole in the hardwood.

Etukang's body trembled, his face filled with shock.

Narway fired two more shots, then let Etucon experience it firsthand.

In less than half an hour, the thoroughly skilled Etucon quickly recognized the value of this weapon.

Even as he laid down his weapon, his eyes were still filled with undisguised shock.

I never imagined that such a small yellow bullet could have such power and accuracy.

If the Cloudtop Clan could master this weapon... not to mention the Ash Clan, they could easily deal with some of the dangers in the surrounding area!

Etukon looked at Narway with pleading eyes and said, "How do I exchange these Thunder Spears?"

Chapter 107 The Spiritual World

The cloud-top tribe's bonfires lit up one after another from the heart of the island, enveloping the entire floating island in a warm atmosphere.

The air was filled with the aroma of roasted exotic meat and the sweet fragrance of fermented nectar.

The abundant supplies brought by the Sky Caravan filled everyone with joy.

The Na'vi people perform their primitive yet ambitious dances around the campfire.

The two of them didn't have to wait long for news; the specially dressed priests approached her.

It was a female Na'vi draped in vines and feathers. Surrounded by several of her people, she went straight to the White Moon King sitting in the corner.

He bowed and said, "Honored guest, it is an honor for you to come to our Cloud Top Landing."

I am Niama, the priestess of the tribe.

Eva has responded to your request.

The priest looked at her with an extremely complicated expression. Eva responded that the Nawi tribe would only provide guidance once every few years, or even decades or centuries.

But as soon as the Sky People arrived, Eva responded immediately.

Within her mental world, she could faintly sense Eva's...urgent desire for that sky-woman?

"If possible, could you come with me to the Sacred Tree now?"

Bai Yuekui was slightly taken aback. He thought he would have to make several more trips to other Nawei tribes, but he didn't expect the matter to be completed so quickly.

If that's the case, it somewhat corroborates some of her guesses.

Bai Yuekui stood up and bowed: "It is my honor to receive Eva's invitation."

Zhou Tai was about to walk with her when the priestess Niama suddenly blocked his way, her feathers and vines trembling slightly.

"I'm sorry, esteemed guest, Eva only invited you and did not mention this gentleman."

Zhou Tai paused, his gaze unconsciously drifting towards Bai Yuekui.

His mission in the Nawi tribe was to act as a communication channel, to communicate with Eva.

Bai Yuekui is a superpowered individual, and the alliance isn't foolish enough to let Eva analyze and establish a mental link.

Bai Yuekui looked at Niama, his gaze calm, but his tone gentle yet firm: "Your Excellency Niama, you have misunderstood."

I am not the one responsible for communicating with Eva on a spiritual level and transmitting her will.

She turned to the side and gently gestured to Zhou Tai beside her, "The person next to me is the envoy representing our multi-party alliance in a formal dialogue with Eva."

“I don’t understand what you’re saying.” Niama shook her head slightly. “Eva has no interest in talking to anyone other than you.”

She... is only interested in you.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuekui confirmed Eva's intention.

Without further explanation, she slowly raised her right hand.

The specially made gloves gleamed with a cold metallic luster in the dim light, and the patterns seemed to come alive, faintly glowing with a pale blue light.
