For the entire night yesterday, in order to prevent the wizard gu that could easily move up to 100 meters after its gigantification from attracting the attention of the Gate of Witchcraft's wizards, Zhang Lisheng had only used his transformation power to fight. Not only that, he would only expand his body when he was pushing down the totem pole in every battle.
At this time, the wizard gu, Ghostface, that had been lying on his shoulder all night and did not move at all, let alone devouring the flesh and blood of living beings, suddenly showed signs of transformation, causing him to be pleasantly surprised.
Speaking of which, it had been a few months since Ghostface showed signs of transformation, but it still could not take the last step. This made Zhang Lisheng, who had been relying on luck to support himself despite having cultivated three ancient strange worms, helpless.
Right now, when he saw the wizard gu jumping onto the ground and returning to its normal form, before raising its eight long legs and charging straight at the tribe's bark house in a stupefied manner, he could only let nature take its course and shouted at the aborigines who were so shocked that their bodies were frozen, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way …"
Upon hearing the Raider's words, the aborigines knew that the giant spider was not a monster that was driven by the tribe's living faith to perform a cruel blood sacrifice for fun. Flustered, they hid on both sides and crawled on the ground, allowing Ghostface to destroy countless of the tribe's treehouses along the way.
"Like an iron nail attracted by a strong magnet, it's moving along a straight line. What exactly is it that has attracted Ghostface?" Following closely behind the wizard gu, Zhang Lisheng first stepped on the broken wooden walls, then stepped on the destroyed tree branches and came to an ordinary-looking muddy ground in the dense jungle.
All of a sudden, Ghostface stopped its stiff footsteps and lowered its body so that its abdomen was pressed tightly against the ground. When the ghostly face that appeared and disappeared on its back cracked open into a slowly wriggling meat hole, it suddenly spurted out a handful of tough silk threads that spread out in a ring and drilled into the ground.
"Terra Net …" Upon seeing the wizard gu automatically using its omniscient power, Zhang Lisheng was dumbfounded. Just as he was muttering to himself, he saw that the silk threads that drilled into the ground had become tighter and tighter as it drilled deeper and deeper. It actually forced the soil under Ghostface's body away and dragged it into the soil.
The soil tumbled, and not long after, a corpse that was deeply buried appeared under the ground. The corpse was naked, bald, and short. Its entire body was tightly stuck by the silk threads that shot out from the meat hole on Ghostface's back. It was being squeezed by the wizard gu that was looking down from above, slowly becoming one with it.
Zhang Lisheng stood at the edge of the pit and extended his head to look inside. Due to the reason of the angle, he did not see the corpse at all. He only noticed that Ghostface, who was pressing down continuously, had suddenly stopped. Its body began to shake slowly and secrete countless silk threads, forming a large cocoon.
"It's not a silkworm or a butterfly. Don't tell me that it still needs to break out of the cocoon? If that's the case, then Ghostface's transformation would be too simple. No, something's not right …" The young man, who did not know the truth, extended his head and shook his head. Without warning, he saw the round cocoon that had already formed spurting out three silk threads in the deep pit. Not long after, it pulled three naked corpses out of the four walls of the pit and stuck them on the big cocoon.
The corpses slowly melted on the round cocoon. Before they turned into corpse oil and seeped into the cocoon, Zhang Lisheng saw the face of one of them clearly. It turned out to be an elite disciple of the Witchcraft's Gate of Life who had been with him for a long time.
With his eyes widened, the young man pondered for a while and immediately understood that the key to Ghostface's transformation was to have a wizard's corpse, or in other words, the corpse of a creature that contained a powerful energy in its body.
This speculation made Zhang Lisheng, who did not know that the wizard gu could only transform into a cocoon because it had fused with a Grand Wizard's corpse, sit down at the edge of the pit and whispered to himself in pleasant surprise, "I'm really lucky.
If it wasn't for the fact that I've 'tricked' those Gate of Witchcraft's idiots by coincidence, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see Ghostface's transformation even if I die of old age. I wonder if these three wizard's corpses are enough. "
Just like this, he sat and waited until the evening. When the young man saw that the shape of the round cocoon did not change at all, he gradually became anxious. After pondering over it, he gritted his teeth and opened his mouth to spit out a black rope formed by black blood droplets to surround the big cocoon. It seeped into it and began to nourish the transforming wizard gu.
Time continued to pass by slowly. Finally, in the middle of the night, Zhang Lisheng, who felt that the wizard power in his body was about to be exhausted, felt an inexplicable jolt in his heart. Then, he saw the round cocoon in the pit slowly rotating and turned into hundreds of millions of silk threads that floated around in the air for a while before suddenly shrinking into the body of a strange insect that appeared in the big cocoon.
The strange insect was less than three meters tall. Its round body was like four huge spiders that were pinched together forcefully. There was a ferocious head in each direction.
Its back and abdomen that were covered with long colorless and soft bristles each had a ghost-face mark.
Its eight thick and long limbs gripped the soil deeply, appearing to be extremely powerful.
The moment Zhang Lisheng saw it, eight hieroglyphic ancient texts appeared in his mind right away. 'Inescapable Net, Catch the Shadow and Catch the Wind.'
After being stunned for a while, Zhang Lisheng commanded the transformed wizard gu to leap up to the pit. He still felt that it was very unreal. "It's done just like this? It's so simple!
There's no danger at all … "After all, the transformation of Mountoad, Island Dragon, and Crocodragon in the past were all thrilling and dangerous. They could only succeed in the end after going through a life-and-death struggle. This time, Ghostface easily transformed into an ancient strange insect, so he was really not used to it.
However, the reality was right in front of him, so he had no choice but to believe it. After calming himself down, an increasingly joyful expression crept upon his face. Zhang Lisheng suddenly jumped onto Ghostface's back and sighed in his heart about the traceless transformation of the wizard gu and his own good luck. Then, he commanded the giant four-faced spider to crawl towards the direction of Tudenan.
When the transformed Ghostface walked through the dense forest again, it was as if there were invisible spider webs connecting everywhere it went. As long as there was a gap in the forest, it could crawl through it freely, be it high or low, in the air or underground. Its speed was so fast that it made people click their tongues in amazement. In just a short while, it had already crawled into the tribe without a sound.
It was already late at night but the Tudenan tribe's dwelling was still brightly lit. After fishing and hunting to get enough food, the Tudenan tribesmen began to build simple short shacks overnight, intending to create a temporary shelter for the newly converted tribesmen to shelter from the wind and rain. It seemed like it would be another sleepless night today.
Under the extremely thick totem pole, Zhang Lisheng put away the wizard gu and looked around. He looked at all the subjugated aborigines who had wholeheartedly transformed into Tudenan tribesmen after tasting the sorrow of losing their tribe for just one night. Once again, he sighed with emotion at the Hellfire people's tenacious character and heart that the hard and cruel jungle life on the island had given to them for thousands of years.
"What a terrifyingly tenacious people! It's simply whimsical to want to conquer them from the outside!" He could not help but exclaim in admiration. When he inadvertently saw Tugra, who was wearing a long animal skin, running towards him excitedly, he could not help but shake his head again. "Of course, there's always an exception to the rule of 'the same type of rice can feed different types of people' …"
"Raider, I have a piece of good news to report to you. The tribe has already opened up the road to the sea.
After we've finished building the bark house and completed the expansion of the tribe, we'll build the first shipyard by the sea. " The Tudenan headman crouched on the ground and interrupted the tribal Raider's criticism of him with a piece of good news.
"We've opened up the road to the sea? What about the Moha tribesmen? Their tribe didn't perish last night. Besides, isn't it not easy to open up a road in the jungle?"
"The Moha tribesmen have fled and migrated to the unknown depths of the jungle. They'd rather rob a small tribe's hunting ground than to be Tudenan's neighbor and enemy.
In addition, we've also found a few Pumanra tribesmen who know how to domesticate the craftsmen's partner, the Lohlos, among the converts. After they converted to Tudenan, they brought us to the wooden pen where the Pumanra tribe reared the Lohlos and found a total of 20 pairs of adult Lohlos. It's all thanks to those guys that we could open up the forest road to the sea so quickly. "
"Lohlos? Are they those big beasts?" Upon hearing Tugra's explanation, Zhang Lisheng pointed at a few animals that looked like giant apes in the distance that were obediently following behind the excited tribal craftsmen as they swaggered into the tribe.
This monster was covered in mottled, camouflaged fur and had a large monkey head. Its eyes looked very clear, and its body was three to four meters tall. It looked extremely sturdy, and it had two pairs of arms on both sides of its body. The upper pair was thick and long, and when it swung, it almost touched the ground. The lower pair was thin and short, and it looked very light and dexterous.
"Yes, Raider! They're the Lohlos!"
"But those beasts are even more ferocious than the giant giant spiders. They don't look like the craftsmen's partners at all!"
"Great Raider, the Lohlos may look ferocious but they're actually very timid. They only know how to catch insects and pick wild fruits to eat. When they sleep, they'll use those two thick arms to hang themselves on the tree. Even if they're tamed, they can't fight at all.
However, their thick arms are very powerful while their small arms are very flexible. Not only that, they're very smart as well. For this reason, they can become very good partners of the craftsmen.
They'll be able to complete the rough work of opening a road in the forest as soon as they're tamed, "Tugra stared at Zhang Lisheng's expression and said respectfully.
This time, when the tribal craftsmen were extremely busy, he still stubbornly sent more than 20 of his best craftsmen to bring their partners to open up the tribe's road to the ocean. The reason was none other than because he knew that Zhang Lisheng had always attached great importance to the sea route, so he wanted to take this opportunity to once again express his loyalty.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Zhang Lisheng nodded. "I see. This is really a magical island and what's even more magical is the human heart.
Tugra, I'm glad that you can understand the importance of the ocean to an island tribe. Even though the fishing ground of the underground Golden River may be enough to feed 150,000 Tudenan tribesmen, the ocean is the true infinite treasure.
Remember this sentence, a hazy underground river will never give birth to a 'big monster'. "
