    ---- Chapter 3079 Andrew shook his head. "! won''t steal what''s yours, especially since we''re friends. So don''t bring this up again." Knox stood up with a serious expression. "Andrew, it''s precisely because I see you as a friend, and I know you see me as one too, that I''m asking you toe back with me and take control of the Hignd Tribe. I know myself well enough, and there''s no way I could lead the Hignd Tribe. I don''t have what it takes tomand them." He continued, "But your charisma and your strength are more than enough.


    Putting the Hignd Tribe in your hands, Andrew, is something I fully trust, and I would never regret it." Andrew sighed, his hesitation clear. However, Nyx''s beautiful eyes suddenly zed with light as she stared at Andrew intently, while Juno, Petra, and Franz also looked at him with hopeful anticipation. They all wanted Andrew to ept Knox''s proposal The Dragonfang Legion trulycked a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Now, the opportunity presented itself, and only Andrew could seize it In the end, Andrew still shook his head.


    "Knox, my good friend, I ---- won''t take away what should be yours, nor the honor that belongs to you." Knox wanted to speak but stopped himself, clearly disappointed. The others were also deeply disappointed, although they understood that Andrew had his own reasons. However, at that moment, Andrew spoke again. "But I will help you take back what belongs to you. Let''s go. We''re heading to the Hignd Tribe, and I''ll help you be the next chieftain." Knox was stunned at first, and then overwhelmed with excitement. "What did you say?


    You will help me be the chieftain of the Hignd Tribe?" Andrew smiled without answering and grabbed his greatsword. Nyx quickly added, "Right, Andrew can help you rule the Hignd Tribe. Let''s go. We''ll head to the Hignd Tribe''s hideout right now. Before the Cathedral turns its full attention this way, we need to secure the Hignd warriors first!" Knox nodded. "Yes, let''s leave immediately. I''ll lead the way." Andrew asked Petra and Franz to stay behind and guard Abyss City. Naturally, they had no objections and told everyone to return safely.


    Andrew, Nyx, Knox, and Juno did not bring anyone else and immediately set out under Knox''s guidance, secretly heading ---- toward the Hignd Tribe. The Ounds was vast, with many wild and deste ces where no one ever ventured, and the Wastnds was the most densely popted region, the primary domain ruled by the Ludendorff family and other scattered major cities. Beyond the Wastnds, the Ounds still had huge stretches of unknown territory. Under Knox''s guidance, the group of four finally reached the Hignd Tribe''s hiddennd after a full day''s journey.


    It was a massive canyon with towering mountains on both sides. At the canyon''s center, only a narrow strip of sky was visible above, a ssic box canyon formation. Knox pointed toward the end of the canyon. "Pass through this narrow passage, and we''ll reach the Hignd Tribe''s hiddennd. But be careful along the way. It''s easy to get attacked by the Hignd warriors on patrol." Andrew slung his greatsword over his shoulder with a grin. "No problem." He took the lead, guiding everyone through the canyon.


    Suddenly, an arrow tore through the air with tremendous force, carrying only the faintest disturbance in the air. It was so subtle that Nyx only noticed it when it was already ---- close, and she cried out, ''Watch out!" She was about to move and knock the arrow aside when Andrew casually swept his greatsword forward. The arrow struck the de and shattered instantly.
