Chapter 602: With so few people in our tribe, there are not enough people for a fight at the entrance of the village

"Lu, you are so strong, why do we have to leave the Bronze Territory? Can't we just go back and kill the Bronze Witch King?" Snake asked puzzledly. At this time, they were already at the border of the Bronze Territory.

In his opinion, Lu Xingshi was seeking the faraway place rather than the near one. It would be the same wherever he was placed, so why choose other territories?

"It's too big, not suitable for us." Lu Xingshi explained: "You don't think we can rule such a huge Bronze Territory with just a few hundred of us, do you?"

"Of course, if you can work at a high intensity, that's fine, but you can't do it at all. We have to ask Hui to come with the few people we have now. The territory is too large and there are not enough people. All we will face is rebellion."

"You have to know that we are now of the bloodline of the sacred tree, not the bronze bloodline. They will not recognize us at all."

What Lu Xingshi said was very true. If they still had bronze blood, then they could just kill the Bronze Witch King and take the throne directly without having to consider other issues.

As long as you have enough strength, other people with bronze blood will naturally become your supporters.

However, the bloodline is different, so no matter how righteous or orthodox you are, no one will recognize you, and it will only lead to a large number of rebellions.

Therefore, once they kill the Bronze Wizard King and take power, they will fall into a quagmire.

"That is to say, no matter what, we have to start from the beginning..." Wo understood what Lu Xingshi meant, with helplessness on his face, and thought he could just sit back and reap the benefits.

When the sacred tree totem became completely independent from the bronze totem, they became strangers to the Bronze Royal Court and all the tribes.

It is impossible to recruit them unless they had joined the Bronze Tree Tribe before the Bronze Tree Totem became the source totem, so that they could have their blood converted. Even if they joined now, they could not convert their blood and their blood could only be affected by the totem in the next generation.

This is a change at the rule level.

"After leaving the Bronze Territory and walking for about three days, we will come to a large unowned area suitable for survival. We can temporarily establish a tribe there." Snail said.

He got this information from the Wuwang platform.

It is not known whether it is true or not, but one thing is certain, there is indeed a section of unowned land in the north of the Bronze Territory.

The reason why no one has occupied it is because it is difficult to open up wasteland here and there are no resources.

To open up wasteland, a tribe must go there to live and turn it into the tribe’s territory, with a complete living area such as farmland and pastures.

This is very dependent on resources. If there are not enough resources, you will die if you really want to open up the area.

Another thing is that the scope of the territory is actually quite vague. Compared with the unknown wasteland, the royal court naturally prefers the territory of the enemy royal court, after all, it has been reclaimed.

Starting a war in the royal court will indeed bring about a large number of deaths, but there are more benefits. You have to know that those who died were not people from their royal court, most of them were tribal people, and the bulk of the benefits were reaped by the people of the royal court.

That's why they never tire of waging wars. The death of tribesmen does not matter, as they will have enough time to recover. Most of the resources and slaves harvested will fall into the hands of the people in the royal court, so that the royal court will become stronger.

On the contrary, land reclamation requires large investment but has little return and takes a long time. Only some tribes are migrating or have just been born will choose to reclaim land, otherwise there will be no place to live.

"I hope there won't be any accidents in the middle." Lu Xingshi said.

There will definitely be troubles. For example, after the three royal courts of Hanjiang, Juyan and Black Flame leave the Bronze Territory, if the witch kings of these three royal courts really want to come and take action, they can indeed do it.

Of course, the prerequisite is that they know where Lu Xingshi and others are.

The second is the Bronze Wizard King. With the range of the opponent's totem spell, as long as the position is determined, he can completely cover and attack.

He couldn't be sure about Lu Xingshi and Wo, so he couldn't be sure about Hui?
So it's still not very safe being so close.

"This place can only be used as a temporary residence. We need to find a more stable place." Snail said.

"The wilderness has been occupied almost entirely a long time ago. There are probably some small unowned lands, but not enough territories that are large enough." Lu Xingshi knew a lot about it, otherwise why would there be news of the Royal Court War on the Wu Network every other day?

According to Wo's rough statistics, there are tens of thousands of great witches in the witch network, which means there are tens of thousands of royal courts. These royal courts vary in size and have been established for different lengths of time, but they all have one thing in common, that is, their territories are very large.

However, the number of great wizards did not increase, but decreased instead.

It is not easy to become a great wizard, but if you want to kill a great wizard, it only takes two great wizards to kill him, and the winning party can also obtain a large amount of resources.

This is much faster than accumulating wealth through slow operations on your own.

"War is inevitable, right?" Wo understood what Lu Xingshi said.

"Ah? You are too naive. What war? With so few people in our tribe, it's hard to even have a fight at the village entrance, let alone a war." Lu Xingshi complained. He didn't even look at how many people the royal court had invested in the war. With only a hundred people in their Shenshu tribe, they couldn't even start a fight even if all of them were replaced by young and strong men.

"It won't be too late for us to consider this matter when the population grows to tens of thousands." The royal court is like the main base. If you want to win a war, you have to build a series of facilities such as barracks and power plants. Otherwise, you will have to rely on a main base to rush in.

No matter how powerful a great wizard is, there is a possibility that he will be killed by being overwhelmed. If ten thousand people are not enough, the enemy will directly use one hundred million people, and there is also the support of the Wizard King who is also a great wizard. As long as the opponent does not care about casualties, the great wizard will die on the spot.

"By the way, how is your bloodline improving?" Lu Xingshi changed the subject. The development of the Shenshu tribe is a long-term project. Unless Lu Xingshi develops the technology of blood infection, he can infect the enemy's blood into the blood of his own tribe.

However, this requires the transformation of Snail and the sacred tree totem. It's a good idea, but he has no corresponding clue. Totems are rules. The infection technology is equivalent to using the rules of the sacred tree to erode, devour and assimilate other rules, which is no less than a battle of rules.

This means that if you can devour and assimilate other rules, then other rules can also devour and assimilate you, and the risks are naturally the same.

"It's almost done. I need to hurry up and record your research. Otherwise, I really can't do it so quickly."

As he spoke, a towering tree made of light spots appeared behind Snail.

"I have divided the blood phase into different levels. Before, when it was in the illusion, it was one level."

“And now it has solidified into a real entity, the tenth level.”

"The basis for division is the lines on the blood phase. Every time it solidifies, lines similar to blood lines will emerge. Each line is a level."

"At the moment, I don't know what the upper limit is." Wo showed his results to Lu Xingshi.

"Not a bad result, but what's the use of this thing? I know that the Blood Phase can allow one to break through the Nine-Pattern limit, but the Blood Phase cannot be used only to assist growth. After all, it would be a pity not to use it to assist in combat for such a big person." Lu Xingshi looked at the Blood Phase.

"I've thought about it, but the blood phase at the current stage is still too fragile. It needs to be at least around the hundredth level before it can be put into battle." Of course Wo had thought about it. They were either fighting or on the way to fight.

In fact, he is still in a blind spot in terms of cultivation. Although Wo has already realized some rudiments of exercises that can grow independently, he still has not carried out in-depth research.

In his opinion, growing by absorbing energy from the outside through blood is too slow. It would be better to reduce consumption and replenish energy through it.

After he acquired the blood phase, his appetite decreased significantly, saving the tribe a lot of food.

"It seems that you already have a follow-up development plan. I am very pleased." Lu Xingshi said with a smile.

He has been paying close attention to Wo's progress. The appearance of the tenth level of blood phase has made Lu Xingshi value Wo's potential even more.

I just feel that it's a bit weird. As a great wizard, Wo is developing the way of totem warriors. Does this mean that in the future, totem warriors will gradually replace wizards?
Although the current mainstream is totem warriors, witches are the real high-level ones.

Since the other party is the protagonist, it means that he is the dominant force.

Just having the blood phase is not enough for a totem warrior to get rid of the totem. After all, the totem is still needed in the blood pattern period, and it will only be gotten rid of little by little when it reaches the blood phase period.

However, Lu Xingshi quickly reacted and realized that there was no need to get rid of him since his name was Totem Warrior.

...

"Strange, why are all the prophecies and divinations bad omens?" The Bronze Witch King looked a little strange. He had a large number of totem spells of prophecy and divination on him, so he would use all of these totem spells every day to confirm the development and safety of himself and the royal court.

However, starting today, he found that everything was taking a turn for the worse, as if someone was targeting him.

"Could it be the Copper Tree Tribe?" The Bronze Witch King immediately locked onto the Copper Tree Tribe. He did not know about the changes in the Copper Tree Tribe, but he understood that the Copper Tree Tribe was indeed a huge threat.

A great wizard and a wizard who can be compared with the great wizard, both of them are a huge threat to him.

"No, they have already left the Bronze Territory. With Snail's totem magic, the distance is simply too far to reach the royal court." The Bronze Witch King also ruled out this option.

After all, he really had not offended anyone. If other royal courts wanted to launch a royal court war against his Bronze Royal Court, it would be too costly.

After all, the distance is far, it is not worth it to attack, and the logistics will not be able to keep up.

Finally, his eyes fell on the Tongshu Tribe.

"In that case, we might as well give it a try." A gleam of light flashed in the Bronze Witch King's eyes. Since he couldn't find the target, he would start with the most suspicious person.

Since the Bronze Tree Tribe had left the Bronze Territory, he didn't need to worry too much and would just use totem magic to attack them first.

As for what happened afterwards? Oh, the other party would definitely not dare to leave. After all, once he left, no one would be able to stop his totem magic from protecting the Copper Tree Tribe.
