I am the one running the game

Chapter 566: You can be sure that you are the protagonist without jumping off a cliff!

"Wo succeeded?" Hui's shock and astonishment were evident in his words.

Lu Xingshi, on the other hand, acted calmly: "As the saying goes, if it is destined to happen, it will happen eventually; if it is not destined to happen, don't force it."

"It's what belongs to him, and no one can take it away."

On the surface, I thought so, but in my heart, I was extremely shocked. How did this guy do it? With extremely low concentration of blood and extremely poor qualifications, there is really no logic at all. It is impossible to do it with a wrong ID card, right?

It was indeed too outrageous that Wo succeeded in controlling the bronze tree totem on his first try. If he had struggled thirty or fifty times before barely succeeding, Lu Xingshi would have been able to remain calm, after all, he had tried his best.

The result was that he succeeded on the spot without any shame.

On the other side, Snail opened his eyes with joy on his face: "I made it, I made it..."

"I know. Don't shout that. Otherwise, you'll go crazy." Lu Xingshi complained.

Hui quickly asked, "How do you feel?"

No one has ever become a great wizard, so it's normal to ask.

"At the moment, I can beat half of Lu." Wo looked at Lu Xingshi with a serious expression. After he controlled the bronze tree totem, his strength continued to improve, but the biggest improvement should be his senses.

He could sense that Lu Xingshi seemed to have some kind of restrained terror, possessing the power to tear everything apart.

Any more and I won’t feel it.

After he mastered the bronze tree totem, he initially possessed the characteristics of a great wizard, so he said this.

However, there is a problem with what he said. Even if Lu Xingshi lost half of his strength, he would still be stronger than him.

He becomes stronger exponentially, not step by step.

"What? You hit me? I didn't provoke you." Lu Xingshi responded. He was also observing Wo. Compared with the three great wizards, Bronze, Gold, and Snake Spirit, Wo was far inferior.

Firstly, his own strength is not enough, and secondly, his totem is only a level two totem. Compared with a real great wizard, the gap is really huge.

The former is fine and can be replenished slowly, but the latter can only transform the Bronze Tree Totem from a secondary totem into a source totem, which requires a great witch as a sacrifice, which is a bit difficult.

At the same time, Lu Xingshi could also see that the blood inside his body and the totem outside his body were beginning to undergo evolutionary changes on the snail at the same time, making it gradually become inhuman.

Of course, it is not an evolutionary qualitative change from carbon-based to silicon-based like Lu Xingshi, but a transformation based on bloodline and totem itself.

Not only him, but the bronze blood in the bodies of all members of the Copper Tree Tribe have also been affected by the Copper Tree Totem. Over time, the bronze blood will transform into Copper Tree blood.

"I was right about you. You are the only one who can lead our Tongshu tribe to rise!" Lu Xingshi said. Judging from this treatment, you are definitely the protagonist.

“???” Hui was confused. What did you two usually talk about? Why did you suddenly change people?

"No... I don't think it might work." Wo was really panicked. Once Lu Xingshi said that, he would really have to shoulder the responsibility of the entire Tongshu tribe.

"I think it's okay. You have already mastered the bronze tree totem. Next, you just need to improve your strength and experience as a witch, and the rest will be easy." Lu Xingshi said that he has chosen you.

This quickly calmed Snail down, and he frowned and asked, "What about you?"

"A force needs both substance and appearance. I'll be the substance and you'll be the appearance, and that's it..." Lu Xingshi muttered a lot and was just trying to deceive people to death.

Anyway, Wo was still young and had never seen the world. Plus, he had prestige, so he was indeed fooled.

Hui Ze didn't say anything, mainly because this matter was indeed abrupt.

What he valued was Lu Xingshi, but in the end the Bronze Tree Totem actually chose Snail, which went against his will. Fortunately, Lu Xingshi was not ordinary, otherwise this situation would have likely developed into an internal struggle.

"So I'm the chief and you're the witch? If there's any problem, I'll have to deal with it and you'll solve it?" Snail answered briefly.

"No, you are responsible for solving any problems. If I meet someone I cannot defeat, I will beat him to death." Lu Xingshi then summarized his responsibilities.

"Then you won't be able to beat him anyway." Wo found the flaw in Lu Xingshi's words.

"If you really encounter such a situation, you don't have to worry. The Tongshu tribe has been destroyed. The only thing left to consider is whether the enemy is willing to dig a pit for us to bury us." Lu Xingshi answered very clearly.

He can't beat her even with cheats, so what else can he do?

As for the qualitative change of Snail becoming a great wizard and being able to defeat half of Lu Xingshi, the former requires time, and the latter is actually just an illusion.

With his strength, Huidu cannot beat him. This illusion is due to the perceptual error formed during the evolutionary process.

Every witch has thousands of years of experience. Even if Wo is the protagonist, it will take at least three to five years to reach the strength of the ninth level.

At that time, Lu Xingshi might be able to kill the Great Wizard as if it were a piece of cake, so how could he possibly catch up with Lu Xingshi? In the future, Lu Xingshi's snowball accumulation will become more and more huge, and even the protagonist will not be able to catch up with him. He is still very confident in this regard.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you." Wo did not feel any shame of being inferior to others, nor did he think that he should be the ruler of the tribe just because he controlled the bronze tree totem and became a great witch.

We have all lived together for so many years, and the tribe is small, more like a big family, so there is no need to have so many messy thoughts.

"But I already have control over the Bronze Tree Totem, so why do I need to acquire the totem spell myself..." Wo checked his situation and felt strange.

It's called control, which means that all totems must act according to his ideas. He just planned to give all the totem spells to the three of them, but failed.

"How would I know? I'm not a great wizard." Lu Xingshi said this, but in his heart he was more and more certain that the great wizard did not completely control the totem: "Then can you peel off and abandon the copper tree totem and restore it to its original state?"

"What? You want it? No problem, I'll give it to you..." Wo didn't care about the bronze tree totem and the identity of the great witch. In his opinion, Lu Xingshi was the most suitable one.

"No, what I mean is, if you encounter danger or the totem harms you, can you give up in time?" Lu Xingshi explained.

These words made Hui and Wo stunned.

"What you mean is... it's not that Wo controls the totem, but that the totem chose Wo. What might happen next is..." Hui's expression changed slightly.

Wo understood what Hui had not finished saying, which was that he would most likely become a puppet of the Bronze Tree Totem.

"I didn't know, so you knew it in advance?" Wo realized why Lu Xingshi was unwilling to choose to control the totem and become a great wizard.

"These are just some guesses I came up with based on the fact that you haven't obtained all the totem spells in the Bronze Tree Totem. You have already controlled the totem, so why can't you do such a small thing?" Lu Xingshi denied it. He had only suspected it before but had no evidence, but now he has it.

"But the possibility of becoming a puppet is low. The wizard kings are all alive and well."

Then, Lu Xingshi comforted him.

This made the two of them feel a little relieved.

"Then you can try to leave first. The Tongshu Tribe doesn't actually need a great witch." Hui said.

He did not think that the Bronze Tree Tribe could develop into an existence like a royal court, and whether there was a great witch or not did not really matter.

"Follow your heart. After all, you are the only great witch in our tribe. It depends on you how you choose to proceed." Lu Xingshi held a different opinion.

"I... should be fine." After hesitating for a long time, Snail did not choose to leave, but planned to continue to control the bronze tree totem.

Because he knew that even if he left, Lu Xingshi and Hui would not choose to control the bronze tree totem, but would just abandon it.

In this way, such a good opportunity was wasted. If it was Lu Xingshi or Hui Qi, he could leave without hesitation. However, no one wanted it, and he happened to get it. There might be danger, but this danger was directed at him, not the entire Tongshu tribe.

So he felt it was acceptable.

"Okay, I'll find a way to get you a batch of treasures." Lu Xingshi thought, since he is the protagonist, he must be trained as soon as possible, and he will definitely be able to help him in the future.

Not to mention anything else, just in the matter of hunting the great witch, both sides have a common goal.

He needs a great wizard to complete his human totem, and Wo also needs a great wizard to upgrade to the bronze tree totem.

Both parties are from the same tribe and are natural allies, so there is no need to worry about backstabbing.

"Where did you come from?" Hui asked curiously. "If it's too much trouble, you don't have to. Half of the merits from this battle can be given to Wo."

"Don't worry about where it comes from. I can get it anyway."

"As for military merits, I actually want the treasures in the royal court that I haven't swallowed yet. I'll make up for Wo's half of the difference." Lu Xingshi understood that Hui was being fair this time.

However, Lu Xingshi knew that it could only play the greatest role in his own hands. With this military achievement, Lu Xingshi could obtain all the effects of the remaining copper treasures. Then he would be able to use gold coins to make them. As long as he had enough gold coins, he could have as much as he wanted.

"Give it to Lu. It's Lu's treasure." Wo had no intention of competing with Lu Xingshi. Lu Xingshi had already given him a lot of things, even the extremely precious qualification of the Great Wizard. How could he have the nerve to snatch what Lu Xingshi wanted.

As for if Lu Xingshi failed to get the treasure back, Wo didn't care. He didn't really care about it.

After all, with his current blood concentration, the pearl is enough, and most treasures are actually not suitable for him to swallow.

"You two have to make the decision. The tribe only has these things anyway. If you want more, there won't be any more." Hui was actually very pleased about this. It was best that the two of them could support each other.

Lu Xingshi was thinking about one thing, that is, since the protagonist Wo has officially appeared on the stage, it may mean that the trouble of the Tongshu tribe may be approaching.

If the protagonist wants to grow up, it is definitely not possible to follow the rules. Only with enough danger and chaos can he obtain enough resources, just like when he first got opportunities in the martial arts world, every time it would bring disaster.

Otherwise, how would the opportunity come to you?
