I am the one running the game

Chapter 533: I almost got myself removed from the totem by reaching out
After chatting with Hui, Lu Xingshi went to the bronze tree totem to start upgrading.

First control the totem to obtain the totem spell, and then guide your own blood through the totem while controlling it.

This time I got a totem spell as usual, but it was a recovery and healing spell, and the effect was quite good.

【Healing Shelter·Slow】

[Bloodline: Bronze]

[Effect: Inflicts a slow healing effect on all bronze bloodlines in the tribe. If they have shield-like blessings, the duration of the two will be equal and the longest one will be used for calculation. The slow healing effect also adds additional physical strength recovery.]

[Frequency: Once a day]

At the beginning, Lu Xingshi didn't quite understand. The effect of Healing Shelter·Slow was a bit disappointing.

The duration is indeed quite long, up to twelve hours after release, but the therapeutic effect is really poor.

But after seeing the effect later, he instantly understood that this thing had to be coordinated.

For example, if you cast Healing Shelter·Slow after applying Elemental Armor, the duration of the Elemental Armor will become twelve hours, and you will also be able to gain additional physical strength recovery.

This means that if Lu Xingshi encounters a powerful shield totem spell that can only last for one or two seconds, with the Healing Shelter·Slow totem spell, he can directly increase the time to twelve hours.

"This totem spell must have undergone a mutation. It originally didn't have the suffix 'slow'." Lu Xingshi muttered.

The original spell should only have a healing effect on all bronze-blooded people in the tribe and a shield effect, and the duration was not twelve hours, but only one-time, and people would recover after being used directly.

Because of the slow entry, the healing effect is greatly reduced, from a one-time recovery to a continuous small amount of recovery.

However, it is precisely because of the slow entry that the subsequent effects are achieved. The overall recovery amount has not changed, but it has been split from one second of instant recovery to twelve hours of continuous recovery, resulting in the treatment recovery effect becoming a useless thing.

So don't have too much expectation on the recovery effect, and you can give up on the treatment. Instead, the shield duration and physical strength recovery are the main things, which is a spell that turns the tables.

But this change is extremely good for Lu Xingshi.

After once again controlling the totem to guide his own bloodline and breaking the roots of three bronze tree totems, Lu Xingshi was kicked out of the totem space.

When he was about to share with Hui the powerful spell totem he had just obtained, he suddenly stopped.

He felt the special feeling that Hui said could only be understood but not expressed in words.

"Is this... the feeling of controlling the vitality of heaven and earth?" Lu Xingshi was naturally very familiar with this feeling.

It may sound mysterious in Hui's words, but in Lu Xingshi's eyes, it is actually similar to the effect of controlling the vitality of the entire world with one's own energy in the martial arts world.

But it's still far from controlling the vital energy of heaven and earth.

Because it is limited to the tribal area covered by the copper tree totem, and there is no way to control it autonomously, it is more like perception.

And this perception is complex and vague, like a mosaic.

But it is not without benefits. Once someone outside the tribe enters the tribe, he will be easily identified.

But the problem is that their Tongshu tribe is such a tiny place that you can see the end at a glance, so there is no need for this thing.

Of course, there are also benefits. It allows totem spells to be cast accurately, allowing attack and control spells to hit enemies regardless of distance, and allowing buff or healing spells to ignore obstacles and fall on tribal members.

With this ability, Lu Xingshi can control the overall situation within the tribe as if he were playing a real-time strategy game.

Then Lu Xingshi looked at his three totem spells and rubbed his temples. This ability was naturally of great convenience and value to Hui, but for Lu Xingshi, it was really useless.

The Berserker Cry is limited to those with Bronze bloodline, so it is completely ineffective for those with other bloodlines, unless the invader is also of Bronze bloodline.

Elemental Armor and Healing Shelter·Slow are more stringent than Berserker Cry, and are limited to those with Bronze Bloodlines within the tribe. This means that only those with the Bronze Tree Tribe and Bronze Bloodlines can enjoy these two totem spells, and neither can be missing.

The limitations are great but the effect is also strong. If Ni or the Bronze Witch King knew that Lu Xingshi had these two totem spells, the Bronze Royal Court would most likely wipe out Lu Xingshi next.

Not only did he fail to win him over, he also felt resentment. In order to avoid future trouble, he must be killed.

If that incident had not happened before, the return of Lu Xingshi and the Tongshu Tribe would have been extremely smooth because of these two totem spells, and Lu Xingshi would have even been able to ascend to the top and become a candidate for the Witch King without any problem.

It’s no use now. Even if Lu Xingshi is asked to go back, he won’t go back.

If the Bronze King Court had stood on his side instead of making him suffer for the sake of their own interests, everything would have been easy.

As for the Copper Tree Tribe, Hui believed that he was even willing to sacrifice the entire tribe to make him stronger. Although the resources and platforms were indeed not as good as those of the Bronze King Court, the Copper Tree Tribe had not let him down, so how could Lu Xingshi kick them away?

Furthermore, he can have the final say in the Copper Tree Tribe, but that certainly cannot be the case in the Bronze King's Court.

It is not impossible to replace them. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Han, Zhao and Wei were able to divide Jin. At worst, they can just use force when their strength improves. "I just don't know if the bronze totem has this ability."

The strategic sense formed in the second stage of controlling the Copper Tree Tribe is of no use to the Copper Tree Tribe, but perhaps the bronze totem as the source has some use?
The reason why Lu Xingshi called it the second stage was naturally because he felt that in addition to strategic senses, the Bronze Tree Totem had deeper abilities that could be developed.

It’s a pity that the witches of the Tongshu tribe have only reached the second stage and gained strategic senses. Even if they can make further progress in the future, Lu Xingshi can only continue to explore.

"The third time was not as effective as the first two times. It seems that as my strength and frequency of use increased, my bloodline gradually stabilized through the totem."

The effect has definitely not decreased, it’s just not as amazing as before.

之前的1000点经验能够让吕行世从1级提升到10级，但是现在的1000点经验只能从10级提升到11级，这种落差感肯定很明显的。

However, Lu Xingshi's situation was even more serious than this. It could be said that the third time had some effect, but if he wanted to upgrade his blood lines from three to four, he would have to use the totem to guide his blood at least ten times.

Whether it is willpower, physique or bloodline ability, it has been strengthened to an extremely high level with the large amount of natural treasures before.

This means that when others level up, they gain 1 attribute point. When Lu Xingshi level up, he not only gains attribute points but can also upgrade his various enhancements while making his passive skills more powerful.

Being powerful also means that the experience points he needs to upgrade will also become powerful.

Otherwise, how could he use the one with three blood lines to destroy the one with seven blood lines with one punch? Even if there is a bias between the bloodlines, the difference cannot be so big.

It is precisely because he has a low level but high attributes and many enhancements that he can be so powerful.

"Fortunately, it's needed more times, but it's digested quickly." Lu Xingshi estimated that other people would need ten days or half a month to guide their blood vessels next time, but Lu Xingshi only needed three days, and as the number of times increased, the interval would become smaller and smaller.

"This should also be due to the copper tree totem, not just my fault."

The Copper Tree Totem is only a second-level totem, and can only produce 1000 experience points each time, while a first-level totem such as the Bronze Totem can produce experience points.

Otherwise, could they be the Bronze Royal Court and they are just the Bronze Tree Tribe?
It is impossible to have no gap.

"If I take some more bronze and use my bronze body as a support, I should be able to do it once a day."

"If all goes well, four blood patterns will be condensed in ten days." Lu Xingshi estimated the time.

“Just to condense the fifth blood pattern, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy.”

The fourth step was easy because Lu Xingshi had eaten so many rare treasures before and was close to the leveling-up point, so he only needed ten times.

If I really start from scratch, guiding my bloodline ten times would definitely not be enough.

Furthermore, the number of times required for the upgrade will increase again. In addition, the Tongshu tribe is poor and does not have enough natural treasures. Lu Xingshi's subsequent upgrades will definitely slow down.

The most valuable things of the Copper Tree Tribe are probably the ten blood-copper beetles kept in the tunnel at the back.

"When the four blood lines appear, I'll go investigate the black and white disaster... Forget it, I'd better just help the tribe find a suitable place to live." Lu Xingshi thought about it and decided not to seek death with his limited strength.

If these two things are startled in advance, we will have to restart.

After dealing with it, Lu Xingshi entered the totem space again. This time he planned to check the names in the tribe.

The main thing is to find Ke’s father.

After searching for a while, of course, nothing was found.

Lu Xingshi read it over and over again.

"Why is my name a bit strange?"

Lu Xingshi saw his name. It was not his real name, but a single-character name like everyone else's. That is, others called him "Lu".

"It feels unreal, like it was just painted on to fill in the blanks?"

The names of other people were engraved on this bronze tree, but Lu Xingshi's name was the only one that looked as if it was painted with crude ink and could be wiped off at any time.

When he reached out and touched it, Lu Xingshi's face turned green.

"Fuck, there's one horizontal line missing. Did you really paint this thing on? And why is the quality of the paint so poor!!!" Lu Xingshi was really shocked this time.

He really just touched it lightly and didn't use any force at all.

"No, we have to fix it quickly, otherwise if Hui finds out, we'll be screwed."
