Even though he had decided to relocate, the goal was just to avoid that Orc tribe.
Now that he had achieved his goal, there was no need to continue on this path for the time being.
He could find a place to settle down.
However, before that, Chen Heng had to send people to scout out the surroundings and see if there were any dangers nearby.
Judging from the situation just now, there were also orcs in this area.
However, they were not Orcs that had gathered together but were scattered Orcs.
After doing this, where would they settle down was also a problem.
According to the usual habits of the Kobolds, they would usually stay close to the mountains.
Even though the Kobolds weren't very strong, they had a unique talent for digging. They were very good workers.
Therefore, they would usually choose to build their nests in mountains or near a mine, and dig a cave there as their living quarters.
However, Chen Heng did not choose to do this.
In terms of safety, this was not a problem, but in order to strengthen themselves, this was not too suitable.
No matter what race it was, if they wanted to become stronger, they needed to develop agriculture.
Hunting alone could only support a limited number of people.
The same area could be used for hunting and farming, but the number of people it could support was completely different.
This was the case now.
If the Kobolds wanted to develop and raise more people, they had to get rid of their traditional hunting and gathering methods and go onto the orthodox path of farming.
Only then would they have enough resources to support a large number of people.
A large number of people was the prerequisite for a civilization.
Only when there was enough food for a portion of people to be responsible for production would they be able to support the rest of the population to become craftsmen and other professions.
This was the path that development had to take.
Under the traditional hunting mode, everyone had to struggle for survival. Everyone had to hunt and gather in order to feed themselves.
Under such a method, it was impossible to develop craftsmen and other professions.
As such, in the long run, farming was necessary.
However, if they wanted to start farming, they had to meet certain conditions.
They had to have flat, fertile land and a source of water.
The land close to the mountains was not suitable for farming and was not suitable as a base for the development of agriculture in the early stages.
As such, Chen Heng did not follow the Kobolds' customs and chose a desolate region. Instead, he chose a different place.
It was near a plain, and there were many rivers everywhere, which could be used for irrigation in the future. It could also be used to raise fish for meat.
The surrounding conditions were very good.
However, the only downside was that the place was already occupied by others.
The one who occupied this area was none other than an orc tribe.
This was also a Beastmen tribe that had settled in this region and hunted for a living.
However, the number of beastmen in this tribe was not as great as the tribe that had attacked the kobolds.
From what Chen Heng could see, this tribe only had close to 100 Orcs, and it could only be considered a small tribe.
If it was just this number, they might be able to deal with it.
Chen Heng's expression became calm as he thought to himself.
He found a place to hide and wait for an opportunity to recruit the wandering Kobolds.
During this period of time, because more and more Kobolds had joined, there were close to 200 Kobolds in Chen Heng's tribe.
There were 70 or so adult male Kobolds.
If Chen Heng hardened his heart and pulled out the female Kobolds as well, pulling out 100 would not be too difficult.
However, despite this, Chen Heng did not immediately attack. Instead, he sent out He Chi and the others to gather the wandering Kobolds and have them join in.
The Kobolds were a race with incredibly powerful lifeforce.
There were actually many Kobolds in the wilderness.
In normal times, they lived in different places, unknown and ignored by others.
However, once they gathered together, the power they could unleash was incredibly great.
It was quite astonishing.
In just a few days, Chen Heng had gathered ten or so Kobolds, and they were all adult and well-built Kobolds.
Because they had lived in the wilderness for a long time, their bodies were quite strong, and they were all well-built warriors.
If Chen Heng was willing to continue to wait, as time passed, he would be able to gather even more.
However, this was already his limit.
On one hand, the Orcs were not idiots. Even if they had not noticed such a large Kobold tribe, they would have become wary by now.
On the other hand, as their numbers increased, the amount of food that the Kobold tribe needed to consume also increased.
If this went on, as time passed, they would collapse without even fighting.
As such, Chen Heng did not continue to wait and directly acted.
In a sudden attack, nearly a hundred Kobolds charged into the Orc encampment.
Following this, magic skills were unleashed.
The Mental Intimidation Skill once again displayed its might, following which the Kobold warriors charged in and started killing.
There were indeed nearly 100 Orcs in front of them.
However, this did not mean that all the Orcs were staying in one place.
Normally, they would have to go out and hunt to survive.
As such, even though there were over 100 of them, less than half of the Orcs were in the camp.
Facing nearly 100 adult Kobold Warriors with such a small number of people was already quite difficult, let alone Chen Heng.
Under the power of magic, the encampment in front of them was cleanly destroyed.
The Orcs roared as they charged up, but they were all killed by the Kobolds, and their corpses fell to the ground.
A dense stench of blood spread out and filled the surroundings.
When the last Orc fell, the Kobolds all around cheered.
They roared and began to call out Chen Heng's name.
"Karunu! Karunu! "
Their voices continuously sounded out.
By Chen Heng's side, He Chi patted his chest, looking incredibly mighty.
In the battle just then, he had directly fought with an Orc and killed it.
For a Kobold, this sort of accomplishment was quite good, and it was quite heroic.
However, compared to Chen Heng, it was much worse.
Evidently, Chen Heng did not want to compare himself to a Kobold.
After all, the two of them were not on the same level.
After winning, it was time to collect the spoils of war.
Compared to the previous battles, there were obviously more spoils of war to be found in the Orc Tribe.
Chen Heng found many things.
In some places, he found some gold coins and some weapons and equipment.
From how they looked, they were most likely left behind by humans.
It seemed that there had been human activity in this region, and they had even been plundered by these Orcs.
This was a very normal thing to do.
After all, both Orcs and Kobolds had a habit of plundering.
However, looking at these gold coins, Chen Heng's gaze became serious.
"The Oro Empire's gold coins …"
Playing around with the gold coins, Chen Heng thought to himself and thought of something.
In this world, each country had its own currency and was not unified.
The Oro Empire's gold coins were one of the currencies used by the Oro Empire.
For the Oro Empire's gold coins to appear in this Orc Tribe, what did this mean?
Did it mean that he was not too far away from the Oro Empire?
If that was the case …
Was he not too far away from his main body?
Thinking to there, Chen Heng suddenly felt that this was quite interesting.
He had chosen to create a clone because he wanted to try out the new functions of the simulator.
He had never thought that the clone would not be too far away from his main body.
This was a pleasant surprise.
If he could contact his main body, with his main body's power and resources, he would immediately be able to get out of this predicament.
In fact, if he thought about it from another perspective …
If he used the simulator's power to reincarnate into a special place, could he use the clone's power to help his main body?
In that instant, that thought flashed across Karunu's mind.
Thinking to there, he could not help but laugh.
"From the looks of it … It seems to be a pretty good one …"
He smiled as he got up and walked out.
His main body and clone were in the same world; this was the best news that Karunu had heard so far.
However, apart from this, his situation had not changed much.
Even if he could contact his main body in the future and use his main body's power to develop, right now, he still could not contact his main body.
Even though he was sure that he was not too far away from his main body, that was not enough.
Karunu did not know where he was, so he naturally could not contact his main body.
If he could not even contact his main body, there was no point in talking about anything else.
Thinking to there, Karunu shook his head and left.
In the distance.
When Karunu turned, within the quiet room, Chen Heng thought to himself as he looked into the distance.
"So it's like that …"
Sensing the memories in his mind, Chen Heng thought to himself as many thoughts flashed through his mind.
At this moment, he also discovered something else.
Being in the same world, his main body and clone's memories would be shared to a certain extent.
Of course, this was not sharing everything but only a portion.
For example, through the faint connection between his main body and clone, Chen Heng could roughly sense the clone's current situation, as well as some things that he had discovered.
However, apart from this, he was not sure about anything else.
He was far from being able to completely share his memories.
It seemed that if he wanted to completely share his memories, he would have to wait for the clone to return.
However, Chen Heng had clearly sensed the situation with the Kobold Man Avatar.
"Kobold …"
Sensing the situation with the clone, Chen Heng smiled, feeling quite curious, "This is quite interesting …"
From the beginning until now, he had gone through many simulations.
However, this was the first time he had truly turned into an Outlander.
Even Chen Heng felt that this was quite interesting.
However, even though it was a novelty, the clone ability's potential was what Chen Heng valued the most.
He could freely create a new clone and take root in the World of Gods.
This was equivalent to opening a brand new avatar that could be used to develop in this world.
This seemed to be quite useful.
Whether it was for the clone to develop, control a faction, or hide the main body, it was all very useful.
This was the same for the Kobold clone.
Even though the Kobold clone's current situation was quite difficult, if the clone could pacify the Kobolds in the future and form a massive faction with the Kobolds as the core, it would be quite useful to Chen Heng's main body.
In fact, it could be said that it would be very useful.
If Chen Heng had the ability to create even more powerful and noble clones in the future, he would be able to do even more things.
To a certain extent, this was a good thing for Chen Heng.
Of course, this was indeed a good thing.
However, creating new clones was something that Chen Heng could not do right now.
His true spirit was still very weak at the moment.
Creating clones was not something that could be said for nothing; it required him to truly invest in it.
Apart from using up Simulation Points, Chen Heng's true spirit also needed to be split up in order to reincarnate somewhere else.
Splitting one's True Spirit was something that consumed a lot of energy.
Even though it had been a few months, Chen Heng's true spirit had not fully recovered and was still in a weak state.
As such, even though splitting up clones was very beneficial to Chen Heng, he could not do anything about it right now.
After all, he could not continue to split them up in the short term.
If he forcefully split them up, it would most likely cause irreparable damage to his true spirit.
If that was the case, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head.
He got up from where he was and slowly walked out to the outside world.
Because they were in the same world, a few months had passed in the Kobold clone's world, and the same amount of time had passed in his main body's world.
Over the past few months, Chen Heng had not changed much.
Everything was still the same as before, and it seemed to be orderly and hadn't changed much.
However, Ali and Maili, who had been sent out by Chen Heng to gather food, had already received news.
Before, they had accepted Chen Heng's request to go to the Mage City of Ai Mu to buy food and bring it to Chen Heng.
Now, they had received news.
According to the agreement, the first batch of food had arrived and was being transported over.
In order to transport this batch of food, Ali and Maili had personally transported it and acted as guards in order to ensure that nothing unexpected happened.
To Chen Heng, the two of them had brought good news.
"Dear friends …"
Within a quiet and spacious hall, Chen Heng received the two mages with a sincere smile, "I finally get to see you again …"
In front of him, Ali and Maili were standing there. At this moment, they seemed to have changed a lot compared to a few months ago.
They were still wearing the same robes as before, but now they looked a lot more disheveled. Their clothes were also a little torn, and they looked very tired, as if they had experienced a long journey.
Of course, that was indeed the case.
Even though the distance from here to Ai Mu was not very long, the journey had been quite dangerous.
It was most likely that these two mages had encountered quite a bit of danger on the way.
But even so, they still walked over, and from the looks of it, they seemed to be very excited.
Sitting in front of Chen Heng, Ali and Maili seemed quite tired. However, looking at Chen Heng, they forced themselves to smile and looked quite uncomfortable.
"Esteemed Viscount Eckart …"
Between the two of them, the older Maili spoke first. Looking at Chen Heng, he gave a forced smile, "According to our agreement …
"Agreement …"
Hearing Maili's words, Chen Heng smiled and nodded, "Of course, I still remember that agreement …
"Now that you're here, I can rest at ease."
He clapped his hands, and a few servants slowly came up and brought some things over, placing them in front of Maili and Maili.
These were the magic items that Chen Heng had promised to give them.
Of course, they were just incomplete items.
However, even though they were incomplete, they were still incredibly precious to Maili and Maili, and they were worth the effort.
Sitting in front of them and looking at the magic items before them, a look of excitement appeared on the faces of Mai Li and Mai Li, and even their exhaustion seemed to have lessened by a lot.
Originally, after a long journey, they were extremely exhausted. Their entire body and mind were exhausted, and they wanted nothing more than to fall to the ground and sleep.
But now, looking at the few magical items in front of them, they felt that everything was worth it.
For these cute things, it was not a big deal to put in a bit of effort.
"Sirs …"
Looking at Maili and Maili's reactions, Chen Heng only smiled before once again clapping his hands.
