The sea breeze blew across. Looking at the 'framework' that had been formed after the expansion of the Wizard Li tribe's armed forces, Zhang Lisheng's mood gradually improved at the moment. He ordered the dispatch warriors to summon the choresmen. Doing this was to make them move and soak the 150,000 elite warriors who had successfully obtained the power of the guardian spiritual monsters of the foreign tribes in clear water. He then instructed them to wait for their awakening.
Once the tribal overlord issued his order, countless natives flocked to the vast open space in front of the totem pole of the Scorpion Island. They carried the newly born chief warriors to the cleaning pool. The young man watched this noisy yet orderly scene as his joy upon revealing their success gradually calmed. When he was just about to return to his bark house to cultivate, he suddenly saw two dragon hawks partners soaring through the sky and descended to land beside him.
Several native warriors jumped down the raptor's back in a before staggeringly kneeling at the young man's feet. Their leader, who had a pair of leopard-like huge eyes with an exceptionally ferocious face, reported in a hoarse voice. "Great Island God, there's news from the Wizard Li Island that our ancestral land is under attack!"
Due to the war of expansion, almost all the troops of the Wizard Li tribe had been separated. They did so to concentrate in the waters of the Scorpion Island. The news that the unguarded Wizard Li Island was under attack would naturally cause Zhang Lisheng to freeze immediately. After a moment of silence, he asked in a blank expression, "Who is attacking us? The mainlanders or the outlanders?"
"T-The outlanders, Your Majesty! According to the dispatch, who was asking for reinforcement from the ancestral land, these people can produce light from all over their bodies and form seven-colored wings when they battle. They can also generate fire from the air just by brandishing their hands and burn us into black charcoal…" Completely in contrast to his menacing look, the warrior who was bringing the message stuttered as he replied.
Even though his words were tactful, Zhang Lisheng still immediately understood that it was the Atlanteans who suddenly launched a war against the Wizard Li tribe.
Compared to the Atlanteans that had 31 legendary planets, the Wizard Li Island in the corner of the Shrimp World No. 2 was obviously small and insignificant.
"Why would the Atlanteans suddenly attack the Wizard Li Island? Don't tell me they've found something? Impossible! Impossible…" The young man muttered as chills ran down his spine. After pondering for a while, he still could not find any answer. Thus, he frustratedly looked at the dispatch warrior at his feet and asked, "How many people are within the army attacking Wizard Li?"
"T-Twelve people, Your Majesty!"
"Twelve people?" When Zhang Lisheng heard this answer, he was first stunned before a pleasant hint of surprise hit him. Then, an enraged expression crept upon his face, "Only twelve? There are like hundreds of thousands of fishermen and hunters on the Wizard Li Island. Even if the island is unprotected, it won't be defeated in the hands of twelve outlanders, right?"
"Your Majesty, those outlanders didn't have a direct collision with the grouped hunters in the ancestral land. Instead, they made a raid from the air." The warriors buried his head deeply in the mud as he answered with a trembling body. "There were not more than 100 dragon hawks patrolling the Wizard Li Island, but all of them have had their wings burnt off and had already fallen to their death. More importantly, those outlanders have flame-like red hair and white mushroom-like skin. Their limbs are slender and long and look just like the eight companions you brought back to Wizard Li Island. A-And, they're inhabiting at the fortress that you've listed as a restricted area..."
"I see…" The young man realized that it was not the millions of natives on the Wizard Li Island who could not handle a dozen Atlanteans. Still, instead, they had scruples over the characteristics of these people in the US military camp.
He calmed down and pondered over it carefully. If the Atlanteans really wanted to wage war against the Shrimp World No. 2 indigenous people, then they would have sent over a dozen warriors here.
However, since this issue was serious, Zhang Lisheng frowned and felt that it was not correct for him to make a blind guess. He must return to the Wizard Li Island to get more information. For this reason, he waved his hand and instructed the tired warrior to retreat and get some rest. He originally wanted to return to the Wizard Li Island by ship right away. However, once he walked to the beach, he suddenly recalled that the Wizard Li expeditionary army was in total disarray and had not been sorted yet. This thought stopped him immediately.
"I must make a positive effort but be prepared for the worst…" When the young man frowned and remained stunned for a while, he breathed a long sigh of relief and turned around to walk into the bark house.
Sitting on the animal skin carpet while pondering for a whole day, he contemplated as to what kind of countermeasures he should do. In the end, he decided to follow the limited knowledge he had about army compilation on the Earth civilization. He wildly rearranged the legion system into the Wizard Li army, so they could respond flexibly to all circumstances.
However, although the young man was the ruler of the tribe's religious and political powers, he could not be unscrupulous when it came to the legion system transformation. After making up his mind, he did not give out his order directly but shouted loudly at the chief choresman waiting outside of the door. "Go tell the craftsmen to build 72 elastic gold headbands with the most exquisite patterns and 1440 necklets forged from black iron."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The chief choresman did not understand the young man's intention. However, he still retreated from the bark house respectfully and spread the tribal overlord's command to all choresmen in the city in the shortest possible time. .
The skillful craftsmen stopped all the works in their hands and spent great efforts to forge the golden headband and the necklace. It only took them three to four hours to finish the chief choresman's order. Soon, their works appeared in front of Zhang Lisheng.
"They look very magnificent and awe-inspiring. Very good!" Holding onto a large gold headband in his hand, the young man touched the gorgeous wave carvings on it and put on a satisfied smile as he smiled at the chief choresman. "Go! Tell all four-feathered chief warriors to see me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The chief choresman was finally hit by a pang of realization. He hurriedly answered and retreated.
The Wizard Li expeditionary army had suffered from heavy casualties. There were only 500,000 warriors left from the 1.5 million warriors who participated in the start of the battle of conquest when they departed from the Moon Island sea region. Since the mortality rate of those who had a higher position in the army was lower, there were still 72 surviving four-feathered chief warriors, one for each of the 72 gold headbands.
"Glory is glory. If this thing is worn on the head…" The chief choresman could not help but mutter to himself as he quickly walked up to the dispatch warriors. "The Majesty wanted to see all four-feathered chief warriors."
"Yes," The several dispatch warriors riding on the giant millispiders answered in a curt reply before commanding their mounts to rush. In just a short span of over ten minutes, the 72 chief warriors with the highest position in the Wizard Li tribe had already gathered in the giant tree house near the totem pole on the Scorpion Island.
"Great Island God, you're the only faith of the Wizard Li. You're the living legend walking in between islands…" The chief warriors sang their devout praises, but they did not dare to raise their heads. Zhang Lisheng smiled and said as he sat on the enormous wooden couch on the soft animal leather. "Alright, my brave believers, I've already felt the piety of your faith. The blessing ritual yesterday was done, and 150,000 powerful fighters who mastered the spellcasting ability will soon wake up. By then, you'll have enough subordinates under you."
"This is wonderful, Your Majesty! After filling in the empty spots of the chief warriors and choosing enough warriors to fill in the army, I'll be able to continue to fight for you again." A four-feathered chief warrior with a huge forehead and ferocious-looking eyes said roughly and crudely.
"Karuso, I know that you're a brave chief with great combat ability. However, you only have 10,000 troops under your command." Upon hearing his words, Zhang Lisheng grew silent for a while before purposely shaking his head regrettably. "On the Wizard Li Island, a 10,000 elite troop can decide the fate of the tribe and in the process of conquering the Moon Island sea region. A 10,000 elite troop can decide the island's ownership. However, now that we have a population of 80 million people in our tribe and we're about to reorganize an army of nearly 15 million troops, what can you do with that 10,000 troops of yours?"
"I-I… Your Great Majesty! I-I can fight to the death for you!"
"No, no, no, Karuso. I have enough warriors who would die for me. I don't have a commander who can take charge of the situation on his own!" Zhang Lisheng shook his head again as his voice suddenly grew deeper. "All 72 of you are my believers who have been following me since the Wizard Li Island. All of you have been polished and honed from rough ore until you shine your dazzling brilliance. Now that Wizard Li Island has already become a powerhouse in the Hellfire sea region, I can say that our growth was already 'unprecedented.' I believe that some minor changes are inevitable..."
Speaking of transformation, the young man purposely slowed down the speed of his speech and paid attention to the four-feathered chief warriors by his feet. He realized that none of them stiffened, but there were over 20 of them whose backs were trembling over their excitement.
The situation was much better than he expected. He smiled in satisfaction before continuing, "I decided to divide the Wizard Li army into 72 legions. All of you four-feathered chief warriors, take off the feathers from your head and change them into this headband. All of you will lead a troop of 200,000 elite warriors and will be called 'legion commanders.' 288 of you are the bravest people from the 634 three-feathered chief warriors here. They will drop their feathers and wear these black iron necklace to become generals who are in charge of their own platoons. Each of them will rule 50,000 troops. The most outstanding 194 people from the remaining 346 three-feathered chief warriors and 5767 two-feathered chief warriors will be promoted as four-feathered chief warriors and will obey to your generals. Once I implement the legion system, the three-feathered and two-feathered chief warriors will directly be under your command. I think all of you have already learned that the outlanders have attacked the Wizard Li's ancestral land. Even though there's only a dozen of them, there's a powerful force behind them. For this reason, we only have to wait for the warriors who acquired the spellcasting ability to awaken. When this happened, ten Wizard Li legions that have completed its reorganization will station at the Moon Island sea region. The remaining 62 armies, on the other hand, will continue to cross the sea until we expand the tribal hunting ground to the Nulu Archipelago."
