Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Meditation cannot replace sleep.

Meditation also requires some small state, and lack of sleep will make the state decline.

Zhou Xu, who knew this, had a simple dinner after it got dark and went to bed early.

Zhou Xu slept very soundly that night.

This primitive tribe can survive here, which means that there is no strong force nearby.

The black beast in the daytime should be the biggest threat in the area. Now that this threat has been solved by him, what else does he have to worry about?

The next morning, Zhou Xu's biological clock made him wake up on time and walk out of the tent. The elf knights, including Silk, were already doing morning exercises. The skeleton of the black beast next to him was placed there.

As early as yesterday, after opening the belly and taking out the essence and blood, they also cleaned up the body of the beast.

Zhou Xu now has two ways to deal with the skeleton of this extraordinary creature.

One is to make it a skeleton beast soldier and provide combat power as a unit on the battlefield.

The second is to give this skeleton to the lizardmen. The craftsmen there can use the skeleton of this extraordinary creature to make a beast bone staff.

Faced with these two options, Zhou Xu pondered for a while.

In the end, he chose the latter.

"When you send the captives and wounded back later, take this skeleton with you and send it to the rain forest. Give it to the lizardmen craftsmen to make a beast bone staff."

"Yes!"

From the perspective of Zhou Xu, the ruler, their Great Zhou is no longer short of such a skeleton beast unit at this stage.

Not to mention the fierce beast that has turned into a skeleton beast. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, it is completely not at the level of its life.

In addition, its body length is only about four meters, and it is not a qualified giant unit. It is better to make it into a beast bone staff.

At least the beast bone staff is much more durable than the skeleton beast.

As long as the skeleton beast fights a few hard battles, the bones will become more and more brittle due to damage in the battle, and the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

In the end, it will become a pile of broken bones and be completely scrapped.

On the other hand, the animal bone staff, as long as it is properly maintained, can almost be used as a semi-permanent equipment and passed down from generation to generation.

From the perspective of long-term development, isn't this cost-effectiveness higher than that of a skeleton beast whose combat power does not reach the extraordinary level?

After simply giving instructions on this matter, Zhou Xu also practiced Tai Chi for a while and stretched his muscles and bones.

During this process, he was also thinking about things in his mind.

He didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and now the essence and blood of the extraordinary creatures have been obtained.

In this case, he really didn't need to stay here any longer. The subsequent work can be handed over to the exploration team to do it slowly.

Of course, before leaving, he has to find Qiansui and Xuanyu first.

When Zhou Xu thought of these two guys who didn't know where they ran away, he really had a headache at this moment.

"Silk, have you found any traces of Qiansui and Xuanyu?"

"Not yet."

Silk shook his head.

"Qiansui and the others are all extraordinary creatures. They shouldn't encounter any great danger in this area. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry so much."

Faced with Silk's comfort, Zhou Xu nodded and didn't intend to continue to dwell on this matter.

After breakfast, Zhou Xu continued to use meditation to restore the power of the mantra in their front-line camp, and the task of subsequent exploration fell entirely on the exploration team here, and basically he didn't need to worry about it.

Maintaining this state, half a day passed quietly. Just when Zhou Xu was wondering when Qiansui and the others would come back, a black shadow passed in the sky.

Then, the familiar weight on his head made Zhou Xu realize very clearly that his rebellious son was back.

"Where have you been for so long, rebellious son?"

Hearing the question, Xuan Yu tilted his head, then flapped his wings, took the initiative to fly down from Zhou Xu's head, landed on a shelf beside him, and then pointed in one direction with his wings.

Then he flapped his wings and flew up again, circling over the camp.

"Are you asking me to go with you?"

After understanding Xuan Yu's meaning, Zhou Xu did not hesitate at all. He immediately summoned Silk and the others, rode on fast horses and rushed out of the camp.

Maintaining a certain speed, they passed a distance of about 20 to 30 kilometers. At the end of the field of vision, a camp directly broke into Zhou Xu's eyes.

Outside the camp, a group of tribesmen wrapped in animal skins were holding weapons such as bone spears and stone axes, confronting a mighty beast.

That beast was Qiansui!

Looking at the noisy humans not far away, Qiansui's eyes flashed with a trace of speechlessness.

Raised by Zhou Xu, Qiansui, who has lived in a human group since childhood, has no ill feelings towards humans.

Under this premise, Qiansui, who is intelligent, also knows in his heart that these noisy guys in front of him will be the labor force of their Great Zhou in the future.

From this point of view, it has no intention of taking action for the time being.

During this time, Zhou Xu, who was riding on a horse in the distance, had a wider field of vision and basically saw the situation here clearly.

[So they discovered a primitive tribe living here? ]

After confirming the situation, Zhou Xu felt a little disappointed.

For him now, the recruitment of primitive tribes is just a trivial matter. Why does he need to personally lead the team?

But now that he's here, let's get things done quickly.

Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this, a dozen adult men rushed out from the camp opposite, each carrying a wooden barrel containing something unknown.

When he saw Chitose, he immediately threw the contents of the barrel towards Chitose.

Seeing this, Zhou Xu immediately opened the 'Eye of Insight' and saw clearly what was spilled in the bucket.

What spilled out was a slightly yellowish, but almost transparent liquid.

At the same time, Zhou Xu clearly saw one of the men holding up a torch and making a motion to throw it out.

Zhou Xu's expression changed instantly when he saw this.

"Stop him!!!"

Zhou Xu didn't know who the shout was for. He just hoped that someone would hear it and react immediately to stop the other party.

And almost at the same time that Zhou Xu made this sound, Xuan Yu, who was flying in the air, his eyes suddenly became sharp, his wings flapped, and he burst out at an astonishing speed.

Grab the torch before it hits the ground, flap your wings, and fly away with the torch, out of this area!
