Chapter 1121 What does it mean to have a terrifying elephant?
Under Xia Jin's Kuiwen Baijie Lianwang Tower, the central military tent of the original thousand-man army has been upgraded to the headquarters of the entire Xia Jin's army from the thirteen character departments.
Here, there were six supreme witches gathered. In addition to the young master of the Ying tribe, the young masters of the Li tribe and the Quan tribe also came here.
The six supreme wizards took turns supplying power to the giant tower, perfectly solving the problem that maintaining the operation of the giant tower would cause a supreme wizard to be in a weak period - after all, there are nine Xia Jin masters here now.
Coupled with Zuo Xi who is still paddling, this place is now as solid as a rock.
Although all the witches and generals leading the teams had to go to the front lines in person, intelligence from various places was transmitted quickly thanks to the scouts and messengers who used "water-proof iron armor" to travel between water systems.
In addition to the sacrificial instrument "Wind-Catching Bone Plate" made by Lu Gu himself and brought by Chu Ju, the shamans on the front line can also convey short messages by consuming power when necessary.
Although no one has won a victory on the battlefield yet, after all, the demon clan is fighting at home and Xia Jin has taken the initiative to divide his troops, but the news is basically all good news.
Although the holy land could not be captured, many villages had already fallen.
If this continues, as expected...
"It seems that gathering the required number of living beings for the Hundred Tribulations Refining King Tower will be faster than we expected."
Chun Cang said excitedly as he looked at the dozen or so demon captives sent by the Divination Department.
"Perhaps, we won't even need to attack another holy place to achieve our goal."
Chu Ju listened to Chun Cang's words and shook his head slightly: "The more the better. If we capture more than ten demons, Master will be less in danger... Although the improvement is insignificant, it is crucial to accumulate small amounts into large ones."
The shamans sitting at the moment were either Lugu's direct disciples or his loyal followers who had received his grace and guidance. Naturally, they all expressed their agreement.
"Once the creatures in the Kuiwen Hundred Tribulations Refining King Tower have reached a minimum standard, we will concentrate our forces on attacking a sacred site," said Wu Linghe, the Supreme of the Divination Department. "According to the original plan, the Wolf Tribe is the best choice—as long as the feint attack there is in place, the Wolf Tribe will definitely let down their guard."
"The Wolf Tribe is indeed easy to defeat, but given the current situation, I want to try the Fox Tribe. If I can defeat the Fox Tribe..."
Chu Ju said this and fell into thought.
"We'll talk about it later. It's best to clear out all these villages first," said the senior witch of the Quan tribe, who was also a direct disciple. "Brother Chuju, Fengze suddenly erupted with a 'torrent', and the water turned a strange, powerful, pitch-black color. Although it only lasted for a moment and didn't affect our plans, there's something fishy about it."
Chun Cang said, "Brother Qin Cheng, aren't you being too cautious? Since there have been no casualties and no other suspicious incidents, and everything is going smoothly, I don't think there's anything to worry about."
Qin Cheng continued, "However, in the area near the Wolf Tribe Holy Land, which is our main attack direction, several Zi tribe armies haven't sent back any news for a long time. I think... maybe we should send someone to take a look."
Chun Cang pondered: "It is indeed a bit strange... However, the battlefield is changing rapidly. Perhaps it is just the Wolf Tribe that took the initiative to attack. The troops of the Lower Tribe are active over there. It is normal for them to be delayed, right?"
"Don't forget that there are crucial 'meridian points' there. We're in the heart of Sanqiu. Although the demons haven't discovered the function of the meridian points yet, if they discover them and cut off all of them, it will be disastrous," Qin Cheng continued. "The army is here now, but what about the subsequent food and fodder support, and the backup for the magic instruments and sacrificial vessels? The beasts in the suburbs are also 'consumables' needed by the Hundred Tribulations Refining King Tower, and they can't be used as rations!"
Qin Cheng said this, and Chu Ju nodded.
"We do need to proceed with caution... Speaking of which, I haven't seen any 'beasts' being caught in a while..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the "Wind Catching Dominoes" rustled, and a witch from one of the tribes near the Wolf Tribe's sacred land, which several senior witches were worried about, sent back an urgent message.
"The moth department is reporting!"
Distorted words appeared on the dominoes, accompanied by shrill roars.
"The entire moth tribe is annihilated!"
"A tide of beasts erupted in the woodland swamp!"
Chu Ju and the other senior witches were stunned.
"What does Beast Tide mean?"
Afterwards, the wind-catching dominoes rang again and again - several feint attack tribes near the Wolf Tribe's holy land kept sending back emergency communications.
"The beasts took the initiative and attacked our troops!"
"The demon tribes around here have been integrated!"
"Urgent news, the demons and beasts are coexisting in harmony!"
"These demon tribes have such perfect coordination! They're practically an elite force!"
"There's a fucking elephant! A terrifying elephant!!!"
The alarms rang out incessantly, and several shamans in the court were horrified.
Clearly, the situation was stable and improving just now...
Why did things suddenly take such a turn for the worse?!
In fact, from these urgent messages, they couldn't even understand what was happening on the front line!
It is true that they understood all the words...
But they couldn't imagine what was really happening.
Chu Ju said in disbelief, "It sounds like the demons and the beasts are collaborating?"
Qin Cheng said calmly: "Should we withdraw our troops... or simply ask Master for help?"
Ling He expressed a different opinion: "A few wild beasts and scattered demon tribes defeated the Xia Zi tribe and then asked for help. What would the Great Shaman think of us?"
"This is strange. There's no precedent for the taming of wild beasts in large numbers in this world. It's even been a thousand years since we've seen a wave of wild beasts without attacking each other," Chuju echoed Qin Cheng. "This matter should be reported."
"But how to repay?"
Chun Cang also murmured.
Zuo Xi, who had been silent all this time and just listened to the conversation between the upper witches, interrupted.
"I think I have an idea..."
Several witches looked at Zuo Xi together.
Zuo Xi noticed the gazes of so many people and adjusted his sitting position uncomfortably, lowering his half-crossed legs. He looked at the notebook in his hand and spoke in a low voice.
"Any method beyond your comprehension is most likely created by someone like me..."
"So... well, if you want to know what happened, whether it's to respond or report to Lugu, the best person to investigate is probably me."
Zuo Xi said this, and then spoke to himself in a low voice that the other witches could not hear.
"It should be okay to just check what happened, right? It seems to be okay..."
This proposal naturally could not be rejected.
"Senior," Chu Ju said respectfully, "Since you said so... then I'll trouble you to make the trip."
"I'll assign you some manpower..."
Zuo Xi shook his head: "There's no need to give me manpower or anything like that. Just send the elite troops normally and send me to that area. I will find a way to cooperate with those troops..."
"Yes, then please step this way and I will arrange the totem."
Chuju whispered, pointing to the ruins of the raccoon tribe’s sacred site.
