In 119, the population of the tribe was 11,000, including 3,000 nobles, 5,000 commoners, and 3,000 slaves, including 6,000 warriors, 2,000 noble warriors, 3,000 plebeian warriors, and 1,000 slave warriors.

The slave clan was still nine hundred people, and it was much easier for a warrior to get points and get rid of slavery than ordinary people. The tribal warband, consisting of 3,600 men, was expanded to 300 men with only the armament, water infantry, and heavy infantry.

The other eight branches of the army were still 300 men, and no further increase was made, only 300 scouts were set up, riding flying wolves and fast horses, with nimble hands and feet and minds, and going into battle lightly to transmit information and reconnoiter the enemy's situation.

Although there are still a lot of warriors available to the tribe, the team has not continued to expand, on the one hand, there are too many recruits, which is inconvenient to manage and deploy, and the recruits are inexperienced, and they are easy to get into trouble and make trouble.

On the other hand, if too much combat force is invested, it will be easy for supplies to not keep up, and the reserve source will be scarce.

The most important ability warriors, the tribe also has eleven, and there are two war servants, a total of thirteen people, among them, Yu and You, are both mid-stage ability warriors, and their strength is very strong, worthy of five early warriors.

At this time, the position of Fan is a little awkward, after all, he is the first ability warrior of the tribe, and the two later ones are in the middle stage, only he is still lingering in the early stage, and there is still some distance from the middle stage.

There is no way, after arriving at the ability warrior, the help of external objects is limited, and he can only rely on his own talent, and his talent is actually not high, and he can't break through in a short time, so he can only use time to accumulate strength like the mountain leader.

Among the current ability warriors, there are only Lie, Zhang, Yi and Jue who continue to break through, among which Lie has the greatest potential, and the remaining Mang, Liu, Yi, and Lang are not hopeless, but it will take too long.

Although, it is not yet the opponent of Lin Houbu, at least, as long as it is used properly, it can still defeat the strong with the weak, and the strength is enough, so there is no need to endure it, in the summer season of 119, the aging wood witch set off to make offerings.

This time, without the team of the mountain tribe, the people of the forest tribe are much smarter, not the kind of brainless people of the mountain tribe, they were fooled once, twice, three times or four times, and suffered heavy losses, so they could react and know that something was wrong.

The leader of the mountain tribe and the witch are not there, once it may be an accident, it appears twice, most of the time it is an accident, and someone will definitely be sent to check, maybe, the person will be detained on the spot, why send it to the door and be arrested?

The plan to lead the water to the east only worked for the first time, and the mountain tribe was so unlucky? Every time the Hou tribe sent someone to "help," they could encounter the sea Hou Ministry's attack? At that time, the wood tribe would face more than one forest Hou Ministry.

At the 2,000-year-old celebration of the Lin Hou Tribe, the mountain tribe was absent! Thinking of the abnormality last time, Lin Hou's face became even more ugly, and he asked the four tribes living near them: "Is there anything abnormal about the mountain tribe in recent years?"

The Flower Tribe Wu replied: "I haven't had contact for many years, and I don't know what happened. ”

The leader of the Tree Tribe recalled: "On one occasion when I was hunting, I saw them on the border, and they were not hunting and gathering, but turning stones. ”

"Stones?" Lin Hou frowned.

The outspoken vine leader paused, spoke directly, and said with a smile: "I don't know what's going on, in the past ten years, they haven't asked us to confess." ”

The faces of several tribes changed slightly at the same time, and the leader of the vine tribe also reacted, and kept silent, knowing that he had said too much, but the forest witch with the bark mask fell into a deep groan.

"More than ten years!" Lin Hou was shocked, looked at the Wood Witch, and asked, "Wood Witch, you are the same, when was the last time you saw the Mountain Witch or the leader?"

"What is this?" Mu Wu shrank on the straw mat, thin and small, his face was full of wrinkles, like an old man in his last years, listening to Lin Hou's words, he was stupid for a moment, and then he reacted and replied tremblingly.

"Oh! Lin Hou is talking about the mountain tribe, the last time I saw their witch, it should have been ten, twenty, twenty years, right? When I saw the mountain leader, it seems that I haven't seen them for many years? I don't remember clearly. ”

"Are you asking me?" Lin Hou laughed angrily, raised his voice, and reminded: "Wood Witch! You are not young, it is time to rest! Find out the new Wood Witch!"

"It's coming, it's coming!" replied the Wood Witch weakly, shrinking his body into the animal's skin robe, not knowing whether he was about to rest or if he was about to find a successor.

......

Soon after the celebration, the Lin Hou Department sent a team to the territory of the Mountain Tribe, a team of three hundred people, one hundred flesh and blood warriors, and two hundred late-stage blood warriors, which were treated differently from the Fire Tribe.

When something happened to the Fire Tribe, it was only in the second year that the Hou Department sent people to investigate. As soon as the mountain tribe had an accident, they had already sent someone to start checking, and they were obviously more attentive, and there was a difference between intimacy and intimacy, which was normal.

The leader of the team is a man who has experienced vicissitudes of life, riding a strong giant horned deer, wearing a cloth lining, a tiger skin robe, and holding a mottled bronze knife.

The team traveled unimpeded, and it only took a month to enter the territory of the mountain tribe, and came to the vicinity of the stone mountain, and when they saw the stone mountain with a great change, the soldiers fell into shock.

Bronze blast furnaces are spread out in rows, wide avenues are unimpeded, construction workshops are lined up one after another, huge flowing water ships are scattered, and the clansmen and soldiers are laughing and laughing, which is very different from the former mountain tribes!

After a little surprise, the man regained his composure, feeling the fluctuations of the abilities around the team, getting closer and closer, and his face became a little ugly, and when they just approached, they had already been discovered by others.

Dense warriors appeared from all directions, there were nearly a thousand people, among which there were six special warriors, six early stage, three figures, from the woods behind, walked out slowly.

On the left and right are earth and stone, and in the middle is the wood witch, still drooping and old, skinny as wood, with a vain breath, but there is no twilight of the previous days, and the eyes are clear and sharp, without the slightest cloudiness.

The two pairs of eyes looked at each other, Mu Wu looked at the man, and the man also looked at Mu Wu, and the moment he saw Mu Wu, the man recognized it, but Mu Wu looked at it for a moment before he recognized the identity of the person, and was surprised: "It's you?"

The man in front of him, he had seen it, when he was traveling far away, he had seen it once in the Gobi Desert, and he saw it from afar, and he saw the man fighting with ten stone giants nearly three feet high, which should be a foreign race of the Kuihou Department.

At that time, the man had only become a warrior of extraordinary abilities for a short time, and the ten stone giants were just flesh and blood warriors, huge in size and strong in strength, and when they joined forces, they actually defeated him and retreated, and asked for help from the pioneer team in the distance.

Mu Wu was not a timely rain who was anxious for justice and righteousness, but just stood on the side and watched the excitement, ignoring his pleas for help, and in the end, the man was defeated, leaving his goods injured and fleeing, getting rid of the slow stone giant.

If it was just like this, it would not make Mu Wu lose his temper, the distance was too far away at that time, and the two sides did not recognize the person, only remembered the general costume, and at this time, he recognized the identity of the man by observing it closely.

He turned out to be the young man of the year! He was the leader of the team sent by the Forest Hou Department when the Wood Tribe had just defeated the Fire Tribe, he had just reached the peak of his flesh and bones, and in the past forty years, he had already awakened his ability.

Now that he has been seventy years old, he is about to advance to the middle stage, which makes Mu Wu sigh in his heart, nostalgic for the time that has passed, but the man does not sigh, and looks at the earth and stone next to him: "It seems that the mountain tribe no longer exists." ”

"I want to hear Lin Hou's opinion. Mu Wu collected his thoughts and was happy to talk to him, and the person in front of him gave him an inexplicable sense of closeness and familiarity.

"According to my understanding of Lin Hou, if he knew that the Wood Tribe had captured the Mountain Tribe, he would have personally led the troops to fight against it, and the Wood Tribe would have stopped. The man replied.

"No chance?" asked Wood Witch.

"Nope. The man shook his head.

"Didn't Lin Hou say that the matter between the tribes should be solved by themselves?" Mu Wu smiled.

The man also smiled and shook his head, without explaining, everyone understands the truth, why bother to puncture it? Just looked at the surrounding workshops and ovens, and sighed: "It's early, if it's thirty years late, it may not be without a chance." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mu Wu wondered.

"If it is thirty years later, I will be a forest candidate, and the wood tribe can invest in the forest waiting department and become the help of the waiting department, you have great potential, if you can cooperate and become the king, it is not impossible. "He's smart.

"Who are you?" said Wood Witch frowned.

"My name is Tuo, Lin Hou's eldest son. Tuan said calmly.

Lin Hou is old, at least two hundred and fifty years old, there is not much time, after a few decades, he will inevitably abdicate, and a few decades later, Tuo has already become a mid-term warrior, and he is not far from the later stage, he is the new Lin Hou.

"It's a pity. Mu Wu shook his head and sighed, "The clansmen can't wait for revenge, and I don't have time left." ”

"You can see it. Taku nodded.

"Anything else to say?" he asked.

"Let's fight!" he said.

"Lin Hou Ministry!" Tuo roared, although he knew that he couldn't fight back, he still had to fight, the ability exploded, and the three hundred warriors around him, all his bodies were wooden, they became strong, and his breath skyrocketed, and he roared: "Lin Hou Ministry!"

"Mu Hou Ministry!" Mu Wu followed Tushi back, his voice was not loud, but it was sonorous and powerful, the thousand-man team stood solemnly, holding weapons ready to go, Zhang, Yi, Lang, and Lie were also ready, and everyone shouted in unison: "Mu Hou Ministry!"

Fighting broke out......

Half an hour later, the Mu tribe paid the price of more than 80 people, and completely annihilated 300 people of the Lin Hou Department, the soldiers of the Hou Department were brave and fierce, more than 200 people died on the spot, and less than 50 people laid down their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

Taku's strength is quite strong, his strength is extremely close to the middle stage, his ability is wooden, and unlike the woodenness of the tree, his woodification is not an attack, but an amplification, which can woodify itself and can also help the warrior wood.

However, no matter how powerful he is, his two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, let alone eight hands, under the encirclement of four people, it is difficult to match, seven orifices are bleeding, his body is highly poisonous, his body is burned, and his back is full of arrows.

exhausted his ability, was seriously injured and captured, Wood Witch did not kill him, but let people take him to the cave, and began to transform, there are ability warriors, if the team is completely destroyed, Lin Hou is afraid of suspicion, and there will be a lot of trouble.

And put Tuo back, not only can dispel concerns, but also is a human placement, besides, Tuo's talent is extremely high, if you kill it directly, it will inevitably be a bit wasteful, it is better to transform into a war servant and enhance the strength of the wood tribe.

It's just that Tuo's will is very strong, maybe his strength is stronger, in order to completely transform him, Mu Wu used eight magic fruits, which took four years of life, which is double the original transformation of earth and stone!

In the cold season, Tuotuo was seriously injured and returned to the Lin Hou Department, Lin Hou was shocked and asked him what was going on, Tuo only said that he had encountered a strange beast, and the accompanying team was all wiped out, and as soon as he finished speaking, he fell into a coma.

There are very few strange beasts, but they are very common, they can be found everywhere in the mountains and forests, but they don't like to live people, and they don't like to run around, in the area of human activities, there are few signs of activity, and the sense of presence is low.

The few red zones of the wood tribe are basically the territory of alien beasts. There are also people who like to run around, according to what Tuo said before he fell into a coma, the team encountered the activity of a strange beast, and only then did they encounter a devastating blow, and Lin Hou did not doubt it too much.
