Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Chapter 411 - 7: Iterative Weapons, Empress’s Methods

"We can’t go back yet!"

When the Medicine Ancestor received the message from Shen Fei, he felt somewhat depressed, as it was not easy to find an organization.

He just wanted to stay by his master’s side, but his master wanted him to infiltrate the Lie Mountain Tribe.

To gather information for him.

’The master says that at necessary times, you can sacrifice some of those in the Jiuli Tribe who are not particularly loyal.

This will help raise your status in the Lie Mountain Tribe, aiming to achieve real power to influence the tribe.’

The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable said in the ’Heart Demon Group Chat.’

’Understood.’

The Medicine Ancestor had read many books, and he naturally understood this tactic.

Though a bit discouraged, after all, this was for his master’s mission.

...

Inside the Jiuli Tribe.

Shen Fei listened to the plans of the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable and others, thinking, "This could work, raising the Medicine Ancestor to a high position in the Lie Mountain Tribe."

"As for the sacrificial lambs, send those other Eighty-one Tribes buffoons."

"But still, be mindful of the amount."

Shen Fei spoke, the Eighty-one Tribes were indeed the earliest to join the Chiyou Tribe to form the Jiuli Tribe.

So to speak.

They were the core foundation of Jiuli, but the problem lies here.

Among the eighty-one brothers who followed Chi You, there was no issue, but they were merely the clan leaders of the tribes.

They had no problems, but it didn’t mean the others in the tribe were problem-free.

Some of them relied on being the original foundation.

Pillaging resources, even women from the later joining tribes, was a frequent occurrence.

And no one resisted.

If Chi You were still the original Chi You, he might be reluctant to act, after all, they were the ones who rose with him.

But now that Chi You is the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable, even sacrificing the entire Jiuli Tribe, his goal is for Shen Fei to achieve his mission.

"Meanwhile, place our people in important positions."

The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable nodded, "Regarding the River Tribe, I plan to push the battle line to the Mufu Mountain Range, using the mountains as a defense."

"By the way, I have some matters to inform you of, send someone to attend to them."

Shen Fei explained his ’Holy Virtue’ plan, and also mentioned sending people to build reputation.

"Alright."

"Also, when will those long-range bombers be ready?"

The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable spoke, "I’ve already instructed Duan Xiu to alter some witchcraft, also looking for usable Exotic Beasts."

"Get it done quickly, long-range weapons are the ultimate suppression against cold weapons."

Due to the presence of witchcraft.

Many technical barriers that couldn’t be breached on Blue Star don’t exist in the Great Wilderness.

In the Great Wilderness.

There are indeed Tier Eight, Tier Nine, and other high-tier main battlefields, but Tier One, Tier Two, Tier Three battles also occur.

One can only say high-tier battles are a major factor.

But if low-tier forces converge, they can also inflict certain damage on high-tiers.

Moreover, the initial clashes usually begin with low-tier battles.

Though the Extraordinary average combat strength in the Great Wilderness is strong, the weapons mostly owe their power to being made from extremely powerful high-tier materials.

Take the Jiuli Tribe’s weapons, once crafted, they are nearly as powerful as Tier Four equipment on Blue Star.

With the addition of witchcraft or potent Exotic Beast materials, they could even reach Tier Six, Tier Seven, and so on.

Internally borrowing myriad forces of nature, or grasping numerous mysteries.

Yet, the use of power is extremely crude.

Currently, the Great Wilderness handles power by sheer force.

So upgrading weapons is also part of Shen Fei’s plan.

Swords and blades are too outdated.

Directly resort to various ultra-long-range weapons.

As for the claim that cold weapons can even cleave mountains, yet there’s no thermal weaponry.

Then why not use cold weapon materials to create thermal weapons?

Regarding energy.

The Jiuli Tribe even possesses witchcraft to control flames, the principle is the same, concentrating energy for an instant release.

The real key lies not in the method, but in the concept.

...

The River Tribe.

The River Tribe is located on the very edge of the Jiuli Tribe, and it’s garrisoned here with troops.

The requisite food and weapons are delivered from the rear.

Can Gang, looking at the Empress seated nearby, initially wondered why the Clan Leader assigned him a Commander.

When necessary, any decision made by the Empress must be coordinated, even by Can Gang.

Unexpectedly, this turned out to be the descendant from Lix Mountain, a renowned figure in the Great Wilderness.

So he said nothing.

Instead, he looked at his ten thousand men commanders.

"What are your thoughts moving forward?"

"Now with a river between us, if they wish to charge over, they’d need to establish their Foundation Establishment.

Otherwise, they need to build ships to cross."

"But we must also cross to reach them... so we should focus on defense."

Hearing this analysis from the ten thousand men commander, Can Gang frowned tightly, "Defensive?"

He was more inclined to swallow up this Vanguard Army, based on intel received in recent days.

Looking to amass military merit, checking with the chief.

"No, we must attack." The Empress, who had already negotiated with the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable and the Medicine Ancestor, suddenly spoke up.

The ten thousand men commander named ’Can Ying’ spoke, "How to attack?

If we press forward, we will incur significant losses, as this river is teeming with Exotic Beasts."

"To cross, ships built of ordinary wood are insufficient, a large amount of ’Iron Wood’ is necessary."

The Empress softly said, "Don’t worry about that, we must push the battle line to the Mufu Mountain Range."

Can Gang frowned and said, "The Mufu Mountain Range is not conducive for our Exotic Beast Legion."

The decision of whether to bypass the Mufu Mountain Range has always been a topic within the tribe.

Because the tribe is currently still digesting the vast lands and resources acquired.

Compared to the aggressive stance during the founding of the Jiuli Tribe, now it ensures much safer control.

Of course, Can Gang preferred to attack.

"That will be decided later, first, deal with this Vanguard Army."

"Have your men start building ships."

The Empress did not explain.

Can Ying, unaware of the Empress’s identity, wanted to question, but Can Gang gestured for Can Ying with a snake motion to keep silent.

"This is the Commander sent by the Clan Leader, a Lix Mountain descendant, watch your words."

Can Gang’s serpent-like pupils looked at the Empress and said, "But if we can’t cross the river, the wasted resources could be blamed on the Commander."

"Just do it. But remember, only the frame is needed, no oars."

...

Several days later.

A fleet of large wooden ships appeared by the riverbank, a testament to the power of witchcraft.

Not to mention that the citizens of the Jiuli Tribe are naturally incredibly strong, with Can Gang’s orders.

Building a large ship probably wouldn’t take a day, and crucially, the Empress said oars are unnecessary.

So it’s just the framework.

"Commander, it’s done."

Can Gang said calmly, unaware of how these rudderless ships could cross the river, where even a Tier Six Witch General might face demise.

And in the next instant.

With a wave of her hand, the Empress lifted the vast river water into the air.

In an instant.

The Celestial River appeared behind the Empress, encompassing these large ships, in the astonished gaze of Can Gang.

These wooden ships rapidly took on a metallic sheen, deepening continuously.

Their draft levels elevating swiftly, in a blink, numerous metallic ships appeared before Can Gang.

"Immortal Technique?"

Can Gang raised an eyebrow, though he could through the fusion of the ’Steel Python’ ancient Exotic Beast, wield his power to transform his arms into their true form, crushing mountains with a flick.

But such wood-to-metal transformation was beyond him, and possibly only the Priest Duan Xiu could do that.

"But how do these metallic ships move? Even those made of Iron Wood require a hundred Witch Soldiers to row."

"That’s not difficult."

The Empress shook her head.

"Soon, someone from Jiuli will bring what you need."
