I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 977, The Ten Great Cold Weapons

*Splash splash…*

With the arrival of the rainy season, the rain from the sky fell ceaselessly.

The drizzling raindrops fell upon the earth, upon houses, and upon the dense primitive forest.

Perhaps due to the washing of the rainwater, the vast expanse of primitive forest appeared even more lush and verdant than usual. However, due to the rain, danger began quietly brewing within the dense primitive forest.

The rainy season had only just arrived, so the water level within the primitive forest had not yet risen very high.

It could be said that all the falling rainwater had seeped into the underground, and it would take ten days to half a month before it would gradually accumulate.

Therefore, now was the best time to enter the forest to gather supplies and food. In a while, it would become impossible to enter.

Due to the Flame Dragon Tribe’s relatively favourable geographical location, even when the primitive forest flooded, it had little impact on them. Moreover, even when this area of primitive forest flooded, it was not particularly serious. At most, the water would only reach the shins.

There was also a large river near the Flame Dragon Tribe. Although the river water became extremely turbulent when it rained, Su Bai had long since prepared countermeasures. He had arranged for people to build levees along the riverbank, so the impact on the Tribe was also minimal.

The only thing affected were the Ferocious Beasts in the river, the River Bears.

“Shaman, is it okay if I go to the riverbank?” Yan Hua looked pitiful.

There was no other reason. Last year, because she had still been a Warrior Trainee, she had no way to participate in the mission to resist the River Bears. But this year was different. She had already awakened as a Totem Warrior, so naturally she very much wanted to fulfil last year’s regret.

“Of course you can. I’ll go with you to have a look as well.” Su Bai stood up with a smile.

Last year when hunting River Bears, he had also watched from the sidelines, and he could sense Yan Hua’s eagerness.

Last year, because the weapons had not been particularly good, the difficulty of hunting River Bears had been somewhat high.

But this year was different. The weapons workshop, following the blueprints Su Bai had provided, had already produced quite a few weapons.

Of course, it was only that there were many styles. The quantity had not yet reached very many places.

This was because iron ore was not particularly easy to obtain. Each time Warriors went out to search, it would take several days before they could bring some back.

Up until now, they had not yet discovered a place with truly abundant iron ore.

The distribution of iron ore was quite scattered. To find a certain quantity of iron ore required many Warriors and would take several days.

This was also something Su Bai found rather troublesome. If they could find a place with abundant iron ore, the Tribe could begin entering the industrial age.

All sorts of iron-related items could be mass-produced, and the Tribe’s strength could also increase by a large margin.

Not only that, people’s quality of life could also be improved. This was the importance of iron.

“Shaman, let me escort you there.” Ye Jiu immediately picked up her weapon.

Ye Jiu knew of Su Bai’s capabilities. Although she no longer needed to guard him herself, as a personal guard, even if her strength was not as great as the Shaman’s, she still had to fulfil her duties.

“Let’s go.” Su Bai said lightly.

He could naturally perceive Ye Jiu’s state of mind. However, this was also a matter of his own strength increasing and did not have too much relation to Ye Jiu.

Looking across the landscape now, there was not a single person in the entire Flame Dragon Tribe whose strength could surpass Su Bai’s.

Even amongst many Tribes, the same was true. Because of the System’s enhancement, in addition to fixed-time check-ins, there was also a small probability of obtaining Skills through rewards.

If Su Bai were to face a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior, victory or defeat could be determined in the blink of an eye.

Ye Jiu was not unaware of this. Ever since watching the Shaman learn a new Shaman Technique every few days, her heart had grown increasingly reverent towards him.

At first, she was still worried about Su Bai’s personal safety. For instance, when going into the forest, or when meeting people from other Tribes. Ye Jiu would always be extremely worried.

But now it was different. Now the Shaman’s strength was visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, he could eliminate threats to himself, so she did not need to worry too much.

Therefore, going to the riverbank now, even though there were River Bears there, she was not worried at all.

*Step step step…*

Forty minutes later, Su Bai and the others arrived at the riverbank holding umbrellas. Because it was currently raining continuously, they had not travelled by carriage when going out.

The area covered by each person’s umbrella was very large, so there was no need to worry about getting wet.

This had also been Su Bai’s original design intention. Umbrellas were originally meant to shelter from wind and rain. If the umbrella surface was too small, it would be somewhat superfluous.

“Why has the Shaman come in person? It’s raining now. Quickly return to the Yong’an Building.” Yan Jiao immediately walked over.

On the second day after the rainy season arrived, he had personally gone to the riverbank to direct operations. Although the Tribe now had great weapons, they absolutely could not let their guard down.

“It’s fine. I just want to see the new weapons’ capabilities.” Su Bai said lightly.

Staying inside the Yong’an Building every day was also stifling. Moreover, with the continuous rain, the air circulation was even worse. Coming out for a stroll was also good.

“Yes. Ye Jiu must protect the Shaman well.” After Yan Jiao finished speaking, he turned and threw himself into the command.

There were now many Totem Warriors at the riverbank, as well as some Warrior Trainees who, as in previous years, were observing and learning from experience.

Each Totem Warrior held a different weapon in their hands: halberds, spears, crescent moon blades, dagger-axes, battle axes, and so forth.

Su Bai was not certain which type of weapon the Totem Warriors were suited to, so he had drawn out all the weapons with great lethality, then had the factory people make them for the Totem Warriors to try.

Ordinary training naturally could not reveal much effectiveness. Now was the best time to test the weapons.

Yan Hua was seen holding a whip, gathering strength as she charged towards a River Bear at an extremely fast speed.

This whip was not a soft whip like rope, but rather a weapon like an iron rod, whose main functions were cleaving, sweeping, stabbing, whipping, and slashing.

The whip was like bamboo joints made of steel, so it was also called a bamboo joint steel whip.

The whip’s power was extremely great. It belonged to the category of heavy weapons and was a weapon created to deal with even more solid armour.

This was also created by Su Bai according to the ten great classical cold weapons from ancient Earth. Its armour-breaking effect was very strong.

*Aoowuuu..*

With one strike of Yan Hua’s whip, the River Bear instantly let out an intense shriek. There was no other reason, than this whip struck straight onto the River Bear’s head.

The sound of the weapon colliding with the Ferocious Beast was very dull. One could imagine how much force Yan Hua had used.

Just thinking about it made one’s skull ache, let alone considering the strength of a Totem Warrior. The effect would be even more pronounced.

“My turn.” Sha Lan’s lips curved upward.

Sha Lan also held a weapon; it was a battle axe.
