I am the one running the game

Chapter 612: Pseudo-Witch Reemployment System
After Wo spread the news of the head of the pseudo-great witch Hao to various tribes, the tribes that had just defected to the royal court of the sacred tree suddenly settled down.

Afterwards, the Glowing Witch King's bewitching attempt failed. However, he realized the problem after the first failure and quickly evacuated the Bronze Territory without further investigation, mainly because he was afraid of Lu Xingshi's strength.

He had indeed reached the 100th level of the Blood Phase, but Lu Xingshi's progress in strength was not inferior to his at all, and on the contrary, he seemed even more powerful.

Killing and chaos do not necessarily have to be fought to the death in the newly born territory of the Divine Tree. It would be better to change to other territories.

It won’t be too late to come back and take revenge on the other party once you have become extremely powerful.

Therefore, after the departure of the Glowing Witch King, the territory of the Sacred Tree became quiet, and Lu Xingshi was busy perfecting the bloodline of the Savage War Overlord, as well as a series of modules of the Sacred Tree Totem and the Spirit Tree Totem.

In the days without trouble, he grew stronger quietly.

In the days of trouble, one naturally becomes crazily stronger.

"By the way, how do you feel after the sacrifice?" Snail asked curiously.

He sacrificed the body of the Bronze Witch King directly to Lu Xingshi's throne totem, which was theoretically no different from sacrificing it to Lu Xingshi.

"Yes, my evolution rules have been upgraded from 1 to 2. As for the feeling, there is no such feeling. It is just like the feeling of eating a bowl of noodles." Lu Xingshi thought about it and it was indeed the case.

The number of rules can unlock more abilities, but it is called unlocking, but in fact it should be considered as synthesis. Through the multiple superposition of evolutionary rules, new effects and more totem spells are formed.

"Is that so? That's such a pity." Snail felt a little regretful. He thought there would be some special feeling, but the result was just like this?
"How are you going to deal with this fake great wizard Hao?" Lu Xingshi asked again.

"I'll sacrifice it to you. There's no use keeping it anyway." Wo thought, this guy knows he's wrong, but unfortunately, since he has become a great wizard, he can't be kept even with a fake name.

So the best way is to offer sacrifice.

As for offering sacrifices to the sacred tree totem, Wo had never thought about it at all. Now the sacred tree totem was originally a derivative of Lu Xingshi. It would be better to give it to Lu Xingshi than to the sacred tree totem, as there would be no middleman to make a profit from the price difference.

Anyway, Lu Xingshi can also upgrade the level of the sacred tree totem.

A complete sacrifice is equal to one level. Things like a pseudo-great witch or half a corpse can only be considered half a level.

"I think it's better to forget it. This guy can only do half the job. It's useless to me. Why don't I modify him and see if I can attach him to the sacred tree totem and make him one of our own."

"Although he is a fake great wizard, if he can be successfully attached to the totem of the sacred tree, the word fake may be removed, which will be very useful for us to rule the entire territory." Lu Xingshi thought, since he knew he was wrong while still alive, if he could make some money, he would not be grateful, as long as he was dedicated to his work.

There is no need to worry about the other party rebelling. Although it sounds nice to call it affiliation, in fact, they are completely controlled by Lu Xingshi.

And if this succeeds, then the King's Court of the Divine Tree will be able to open up the Great Wizard Promotion Business to improve the upward channel and deepen the effect of centralization.

After all, who doesn't want to become a great wizard?

Even later on, a feudal system could be implemented. As long as they were enfeoffed as great witches by the sacred tree totem, they would never be able to leave.

The feudal system does have drawbacks, but if it can be fully controlled, then these drawbacks can be ignored.

Lu Xingshi told Wo about his idea, and Wo's eyes lit up: "Lu, you are really talented. Why don't you just let me be the wizard king and I will be the totem."

"You wish." Lu Xingshi rolled his eyes.

He knew what Wo was thinking. Ever since he became the Wizard King, he was either practicing with the Blood-Appearance and Light-Spot Divine Tree to control the power of the Great Wizard, or dealing with various affairs of the royal court. He even had to take time out to perfect his blood-appearance.

After the establishment of the Royal Court, there was naturally a lot of work to do, such as settling the original Royal Court envoys, dealing with problems of various tribes, etc. One Hui was definitely not enough, and this was originally Wo's job.

It can only be said that being an emperor, unless you are a powerful and lucky Emperor Yan like Lu Xingshi, or a foolish and tyrannical emperor, otherwise the daily workload is heavy, and you are even bound by rules and regulations.

Fortunately, this is the primitive age, and although he is busy, he is not restricted by anything. Otherwise, how could he have come to Lu Xingshi to escape disaster.

"Oh, how come I suddenly had a brain storm and became a great wizard." Snail sighed.

The power of the great wizard is not irreplaceable. If you want to become Lu Xingze's Jinchūriki, you don't have to be the Wizard King. You can undergo transformation surgery.

In this way, he not only has great power, but also does not have to work. Just thinking about that life will be so wonderful.

He now understood why Lu Xingshi was unwilling in the first place. All his claims of no were lies. He just wanted to avoid these tasks.

"This is your fate you can't escape, young man." Lu Xingshi patted his shoulder.

With Lu Xingshi's current height of 40 meters, he is indeed qualified to be called Snail Boy.

His physique is getting taller and taller, and no one knows where the upper limit is. One day he might become a hundred-meter-tall giant... Well, maybe he can really become a giant in the literal sense.

"By the way, how is your tribe's fertility improvement experiment going?" Wo asked. As for the improvement of strength, this has been solved after the tribe members controlled the sacred tree totem and obtained Lu Xingshi's throne totem system. Now the most urgent task is population.

"Well, this is a bit difficult, because it is a survival mechanism in itself."

"You also know that once the population is too large, with our appetite, not only will there be massive damage to the environment, but there will also be shortages due to insufficient food, leading to malnutrition or even starvation."

"Plus, we are at the top of the food chain. Most deaths are not caused by hunting ferocious beasts, but by wars and bloody conflicts. This has led to the evolution of our body mechanisms to instinctively reduce our fertility rate."

"When the environment is not suitable for survival, animals will stop reproducing."

"Our situation is somewhat similar to this. We are not stopping reproduction, but reducing the probability of reproduction." Lu Xingshi said.

The ecosystem that an environment can support is limited. Primitive people are all as greedy as gluttons. If they were allowed to live freely, not only the environment would not be able to bear it, but they themselves would not be able to bear it either.

"So, Lu, how did you solve it?" asked Wo.

"How can I solve the problem? I can just mark their ovulation period on the calendar of the Throne Totem System, and then let them work hard on their own. I can't modify their genes," Lu Xingshi complained.

"Your solution... is really simple and unpretentious." Wo couldn't find any good adjectives for a moment, but this solution was indeed the most efficient and cost-effective.

"It's just right. Now that you have solved the two important things, the subsequent development of the blood phase will be left to you!" Snail said.

"Ah?" Lu Xingshi didn't expect that this guy would dare to play tricks on him.

"I really don't have time. You're also doing research, so why don't you join us?" Snail said bluntly.

"It's okay, but you may not be able to use the blood pattern I researched." Lu Xingshi was researching his own customized version, and the applicability to others was too low. After all, the strength of his blood pattern was one to three hundred thousand, how could they possibly adapt to it.

"Then you should be demoted." Snail said helplessly.

"It can't be reduced at all." Lu Xingshi said confidently, but he also gave a solution: "In fact, there is a way to have the best of both worlds."

"I will do my best to study the affiliation of Hao, the pseudo great witch. After I succeed, you go to the big tribe to select reserve great witches, and then let them come and affiliation with the sacred tree totem. By then, they will be in our hands, and you can let them do whatever they want." Lu Xingshi said with a smile.

"Hey, that makes sense." Snail realized that the witches of these large tribes were all experienced rulers.

"I will directly form a cabinet and balance power and politics to allow them to shine."

Wo Yi thought, if he was freed, he could focus on improving his own strength like Lu.

"The question now is, Lu, when will you figure it out?" Wo discovered a blind spot, which was that he had to wait for Lu Xingshi to figure it out first.

"Well, this will take some time, the details are to be determined." Lu Xingshi touched his chin. How could he know when it would be completed? If he was lucky, he would have it done tomorrow, but if he was unlucky, he would fail directly.

Research not only requires sufficient knowledge reserves and hands-on ability, but also requires luck as an aid.

When Snail heard this, his face fell. It seems that you are just making empty promises to yourself.

"I'll have someone send the wormwood to you. Please pay more attention to it. Whether I can get rid of the pressure of work from now on depends on you." Snail said in a tone that said, "Don't make me beg you."

"I'll try my best." Lu Xingshi could see that Wo had found the true meaning of power.

What emperor's mind, what way to control people, these are all empty words. As long as you are strong enough, you can be honest and righteous, respect virtue and reward merit, and rule the world with ease.

Lu Xingshi has been a hands-off boss for so many years, but nothing has gone wrong.

"Don't just try your best, be sure. Whether I live the rest of my life as a slave or in Rome, it all depends on you." Snail said it so sincerely.

"Ah, this... calm down. You are already in Rome. How can you embarrass yourself as a real beast of burden?" Lu Xingshi said speechlessly.

This guy is really taking advantage of others.

A good person in a certain family became a great wizard and even the wizard king at a young age.

"Okay, okay, I'm calm."

"Okay, I'll go get you the wormwood." Snail said as he stood up and left Lu Xingshi's tent. He just looked at the time and realized that if he continued chatting nonsense with Lu Xingshi, he would probably have to work until midnight.

The work was piling up but there was no one to help him with it. Hui also had his own work to do, so how could anyone help him?
