"That's actually possible …"
In the divine realm, Xi Wei couldn't help twisting his tentacles in surprise as he watched his believer's act of [beep] actually garner a bunch of fanboys.
After thinking about it for a moment, he changed the names of the Rhino Horn tribe that had become neutral to blue.
It was the first color to appear, and it represented vassals who obeyed the Players' orders but did not believe in Xi Wei who was the God of Games.
Considering that a divine war was unavoidable, the mortal realm would definitely fall into chaos due to the lack of faith, and there would definitely be situations like the Rhino Horn tribe in the future.
Those creatures were not neutral but belonged to the Players' faction, and unlike the wood elves who allied with the Players on equal footing, they were pure vassals.
If they did not believe in the God of Games, they would not be treated as Players. While it was not impossible for them to abandon their original deity and change their faith, it would definitely take a long time. On the other hand, it would also alienate the Players if their names were green or yellow. After all, the Players had suffered a little at the hands of yellow-named neutral units, and it was not unheard of for a seemingly harmless yellow-named to suddenly turn into red-named hostile creatures. In other words, the Players might accept yellow-named units, but they would never trust yellow-named units a hundred percent.
On this basis, drawing a new color unit was the simplest way to deal with it.
That being said, Xi Wei named it a Subordinate Creature, which was similar to the Players' pets or mounts. Still, don't expect him to be fair and treat the heretics of the Church of Games equally — doing that in a world where gods existed was suicide …
At the same time, Zonyan's actions gave Xi Wei some inspiration.
At first, he had been hesitating whether he should make reclaiming the Grayclaw tribe an event or a personal quest or a shared quest. Now, it seems that he could make it more interesting.
"It's a pity I didn't play a mobile game like Wild Shores before I transmigrated, or I could copy … ahem, use it as a reference."
He intended to set the Grayclaw quest as an asymmetric real-time strategy game. There were few such games before he transmigrated, and Xi Wei only had an impression of one with billions of zombies. It was a pity that the Players were the zombies now, and there was no way he could use them as a reference …
One way or another, as the smell of gunpowder in the Divine Realm thickened, Xi Wei's sense of danger intensified once more after the Lord of the Peaks had clashed with him once. Hence, he decided not to bide his time, and directly grab the benefits and reap the benefits as soon as possible. That might be the best.
Therefore, he was ready to pluck the divine power seed formed by the ignorant faith of the ancestral spirit!
Interestingly, just like Xi Wei himself, if the Ancestral Spirit could awaken a divine will, it would essentially be a believer of the gods. In other words, it would naturally fall if no one believed in it.
Similarly, if the number of people who believed in him was greatly reduced, the power of faith in his divine power seed would be greatly depleted and lost.
At first, Xi Wei had intended to draw a large number of Players to the Western Continent through quests, and then trigger public quests to have them attack the Grayclaw tribe directly in the form of a blitzkrieg.
Although this plan was simple and straightforward, and the success rate of its execution was not small, it was also very likely that the enemy would escape due to the leakage of information.
And if too many nonhumans were killed in pursuit of Swordtail Grayclaw, the ancestral power's divine power wouldn't taste as good.
That's right. The reason Xi Wei hadn't dealt with the problem of the nonhumans until now wasn't because he was worried that the Players wouldn't be able to win, but because he was worried that they would go berserk and kill too many nonhumans …
And this time, Zonyan had given him a 'that's actually possible' reminder.
That was why the quest didn't require a new event at all — the Players hadn't even caught their breath from the last event. All Xi Wei had to do was have Zonyan and a few other Players subjugate new tribes and control them to maintain the situation, creating an opportunity for them to fight Swordtail Grayclaw.
Compared to slaughtering nonhumans one by one and forcing Swordtail to fight, this real-time strategy was more troublesome, but it would preserve the nonhuman race's strength to the greatest extent, keeping the disaster within a bearable range.
Hence, Xi Wei waved his tentacles again and started typing away on the keyboard.

[Side Quest: The Lion with a Broken Tail]
[Quest Details: After familiarizing yourself with the situation in the Vierlin Plains, you were shocked by the man-made disaster and decided to overthrow your brother's evil rule by defeating the evil man who sits on the throne of the King of Beasts and save the nonhumans of the Vierlin Plains so that they can once again live in peace and stability in this world!]
[Quest Requirement: Gain the support of as many nonhuman tribes as possible and have them help you repel Swordtail's army. The higher the number of tribes that support you, the higher the quality of the equipment chests rewarded, and finally kill Swordtail Grayclaw with your own hands.]
[Quest Reward: A certain amount of EXP, Crown of Beasts (Legendary Equipment), Pale ~ Gold Equipment Chests x1]
[Failure Penalty: None]
[Note: This quest can be shared with other Players. Participating Players would receive equipment chests of corresponding quality based on their performance. Maximum of five people allowed.]
Zonyan, who was receiving flattery from the Rhinoceros Horned Tribe couldn't help jumping in surprise when a new quest and page popped up in his System.
Still, he was thrilled to find out that the God of Games wasn't blaming him, and instead had him lead the nonhumans to defeat Swordtail.
"If it can be shared with five people, does that mean this quest is a standard six-man dungeon?"
Zonyan mused to himself and quickly decided on two candidates.
They were Vulcan and Joey, who had followed him to the Western Continent from the start. The other three had yet to decide whether to recruit Players with higher levels or some nonhuman Players.
After all, there were many nonhuman tribes in the Vierlin Plains, and humans were too conspicuous in this area.
"Return to your own tribes and spread word of my words to you and the other tribes. Have them leave if they're not convinced — we would soon have a decisive battle against Swordtail Grayclaw, and I'll come looking for you when the time comes. Moreover, you could find me at the Long Ears' encampment if Swordtail intends to do anything to you. Don't worry, I wouldn't sit idly by."
"What about you, Great Chief?" The Rhinoceros Horned Tribe who had surrendered first asked nervously.
"I'll return and subjugate the other tribes that serve Grayclaw and cut off Swordtail's limbs, so that they understand —" Zonyan's voice was deep, but there was a surging vigor and sharpness in it. "The King of the nonhumans of the Vierlin Plains has returned!"
