I am the one running the game

Chapter 517 Wang Ting's Further Study Quota

When Lu Xingshi returned with the fire copper, the tribe was filled with gloom and sadness.

It was quick when we went there, but it took a month to come back. The main reason was that transporting the fire copper was really troublesome. In addition, I had to solve the food problem by myself during the period, and a series of other things delayed it.

Fortunately, the way back was smooth and nothing happened.

After arranging the six people from the Fire Copper Tribe, Lu Xingshi finally understood what had happened.

The war between the Bronze Court and the Silver Court ended. With the help of the Golden Court, the two courts destroyed the Silver Court.

However, the two royal courts also paid a huge price for this. The death of a large number of totem warriors made the situation of all the major tribes even worse.

The same thing happened to the Copper Tree Tribe. None of the two hundred totem warriors they sent out returned, as they all died in the war.

This almost made Hui, the old strong man, unable to withstand the blow.

Although he had been prepared, he was still greatly shocked when he heard the news, and it took him a long time to recover.

However, the Bronze Royal Court is not a stingy people and is very generous with pensions. After all, these resources were looted from the Silver Royal Court, and giving more is considered winning people's hearts.

It is true that the Silver Royal Court was destroyed, but there is also a Golden Royal Court. Although the two sides have had a brief cooperation this time, it does not mean that they are friends.

There will definitely be another battle between the two sides.

After hearing the news, Lu Xingshi remained calm. In a war, there will always be casualties.

Especially since this is similar to a war of annihilation, it is naturally like a meat grinder, as many people who go in will die, and there are simply few people who can survive.

As for Lv Xingshi's divine soldiers descending from the sky to save people? This was too absurd. He was indeed much stronger now, but compared to this fierce and barbaric world, he was still far behind.

During this month, Lu Xingshi transformed from a bronze man back to a normal person. All resources were digested by him, his own strength stabilized, and his strength increased from the original high speed to a normal speed.

The bronze body naturally upgraded after absorbing the blood copper. In addition to the original accelerated growth, attribute enhancement and skill amplification, there was an additional elemental growth. Of course, this ability was named by Lu Xingshi himself.

It can enhance the growth potential by consuming elements similar to fire copper.

The overall strength of the fire element in Lu Xingshi's body is currently about 20% of his bloodline. Normally, it can only increase with the improvement of his bloodline, but the increase ratio is fixed.

However, the upgraded bronze body can increase the percentage of fire elements.

If it is changed to Fire Copper bloodline, it naturally cannot be only 20%, but it will be exactly the same % ratio. After all, it is the bronze subspecies bloodline with fire attribute.

This is all thanks to the fact that Lu Xingshi used top-grade fire copper. If he used ordinary fire copper, the percentage would only be around 10%.

As for how to increase the percentage, it is actually very simple. Just eat bronze. The logic itself has not changed. After eating bronze, you will start to absorb nutrients and grow.

In addition to the additional ability, the original three abilities have actually been enhanced a little, but it's not obvious.

Moreover, according to Lu Xingshi's observation, these three abilities should have reached their limits. Even if he obtains more blood copper in the future, he will probably only gain new abilities or enhance the ability of elemental growth. There should still be room for improvement in elemental growth.

But even if it is improved, it will not actually produce any qualitative change. At most it will just speed up the growth of the elements.

"So you plan to let me and Ke go to the royal court?" Lu Xingshi asked.

Just now, Hui not only told him about the Royal Court War, but also mentioned the Black Disaster and the White Disaster, and planned to let Lu Xingshi and Ke go to the Bronze Royal Court for further studies.

"That's right, it's not suitable for you two to stay here." Hui said directly.

This was a disguised way of sending them both away.

Lu Xingshi frowned. According to his rational thinking, he would have agreed without hesitation. However, just walking away like that was not in line with his moral code.

If Hui allowed him to live and die with the tribe, then he would have no psychological burden to run away afterwards. But if Hui sent him to escape, Lu Xingshi would feel embarrassed to leave.

"How long will it take for the black and white disaster to break out? The war in the royal court has ended. Logically, we should send people to help. After all, there is an alliance." Lu Xingshi looked at the royal court envoy Ni in the tent, the tall and strong witch.

Ni looked a little embarrassed: "The royal court has just experienced a war and is short of manpower. We are temporarily unable to help hunt the black and white disasters. If you are willing to migrate, the royal court can not only help you choose a place, but also give you sufficient compensation."

What I mean is that you can change places, but you can't let them take risks.

Lu Xingshi's face turned dark. In order to help Wang Ting, they lost two hundred totem warriors, each of whom was the backbone of their tribe. As a result, Wang Ting turned his face away from them. Everyone would be unhappy.

"When you are short of manpower, you can ignore the alliance. When the Tongshu tribe was short of manpower, they gritted their teeth and sent all their young and strong people to the royal court for the sake of the alliance." Lu Xingshi said sarcastically.

In response to Lu Xingshi's ridicule, Ni was too embarrassed to respond. The royal court had indeed gone too far in this matter, and it was really inappropriate to use such an excuse to prevaricate.

"The royal court also has its own difficulties." Ni said angrily. She could only say this, she couldn't stand from the perspective of the Tongshu tribe, she was the witch of the royal court, not the witch of the Tongshu tribe.

"The black and white disaster will not break out for at least a year. I will find a way to migrate away." Hui said.

Since the royal court is unwilling to help and the outcome cannot be changed, we can only flee, or stay here and wait to die.

Now that there is a genius like Lu Xingshi, as long as the Tongshu tribe can be preserved, Hui believes that under Lu Xingshi's leadership, the Tongshu tribe will prosper again, so what should be abandoned must be abandoned.

Of course, if the two hundred young and strong men in the tribe had not died, he and Lu Xingshi, with the thirty pieces of fire copper, would have had no problem hunting down the black and white disasters, even at the cost of sacrificing most of the population, and driving them out of the tribe. Unfortunately, all the two hundred totem warriors died, so they had to leave.

After this blow, it would be impossible to recover without several generations.

"But once your bronze tree totem moves, then..." Ni asked worriedly.

"The royal court will compensate us, right?" Hui said with a smile, "Let Lu Heke follow you to the royal court. We will leave after 300 solar hours. Let Lu come back before we leave."

The meaning is very clear. Since the royal court is unwilling to lend a helping hand, then according to the covenant, the issue of the bronze tree totem should be the responsibility of the royal court.

Instead of pushing the blame here and there, if they are really so shameless, then if there is a war or other conscription in the future, their Tongshu tribe will continue to shirk responsibility.

"I will convey your request." Ni replied. She was a witch, but not the only witch in the royal court, so she did not have the power to make the final decision.

During this process, Lu Xingshi did not continue to speak. He did not understand the situation in the royal court, and it was not rational to speak carelessly. He also mocked what he should mock.

"In that case, you should take Lu Heke to the royal court tomorrow."

"They need to accept Wang Tingwu's inheritance. I think you don't need to convey this point." Hui said.

"No problem. No one will object to the opportunity you got in exchange for their military merits." Ni can guarantee this. If someone really dares to be greedy, then the next to be destroyed will be their Bronze Royal Court.

"I also used their military exploits to exchange for a full range of top-grade coppers for wind, thunder, water, etc. When we get to the royal court, Ni will take you to claim them."

These top-grade elemental refined coppers are extremely valuable, and Hui bought them all for him. It is estimated that he used up all the military merits of those who sacrificed in the tribe.

When Lu Xingshi heard this, his eyelids drooped.

"I understand." He didn't say anything. He would naturally remember the kindness he received and would repay it in the future.

As for being tied up in the Tongshu tribe? They are sincere and give you the best. They are not using moral blackmail. What's the problem with staying?

What you say is not important, what you do is important.

But Ke has nothing, and Hui can only say sorry for this. It is really that Ke is too useless. It has nothing to do with the low blood concentration and poor qualifications as a witch. However, he still does not make progress and does not fulfill his duties as a witch at all.

And it seemed that his mind was not on the tribe, which made him vaguely worried.

He is biased, but if Ke worked harder and considered the tribe more, he would not give Ke nothing.

...

"Lu is back, so we should go to the royal court tomorrow."

"No, I have to leave as soon as possible." Ke's expression was gloomy. He found that the changes in this life were really too great.

Although the victory of the Bronze Court and the death of two hundred totem warriors of the tribe did not change, other aspects had become too great.

For example, at this time in the previous life, the royal envoy Ni did not arrive, and Lu Xingshi did not return with thirty pieces of copper fire spirits.

"But before you leave, you can take a piece of copper fire essence with you. It's a rare treasure." A gleam of light flashed in Ke's eyes.

He planned to leave in the evening, otherwise he would be stuck there until tomorrow.

The Black and White Disaster not only attacked the Copper Tree Tribe, it even broke through the Bronze King's Court at one point.

The current Bronze King's Court did not help, and it was only after the two disasters destroyed many tribes and strengthened them that the situation was finally quelled at a huge cost.

As for going to the Bronze King's Court to study the witch's inheritance, he didn't take it seriously at all. With his blood concentration and witch's qualifications, he would not be able to learn anything if he went there, and it would be a trouble instead.

What's more, the current Bronze King's Court is not a good place, but a big whirlpool.

When Snail came back in his previous life, he almost couldn't come back because of the whirlpool of interests in the royal court. If he had continued to stay, he might have come back as a corpse.

It was not like he had not been to the Bronze King's Court in his previous life, but it was never a place where outsiders from their tribe could adapt.
