Devouring the Stars: The Master of Metaphysics

At Li Qi's home in the Royce family.

"Tell me where Eleven went? Eleven never needs to be called for dinner!"

Mother Winnie found that Li Qi did not eat in the dining tent, and suppressed her doubts and confusion. She did not start to question her husband until she got home.

Faced with the questioning, Dericul remained silent, hesitating whether to tell his wife about Li Qi's patrol.

Seeing her husband silent, Winnie was angry, "Speak up! Dericul!"

"Alas..." Seeing his wife angry, Dericul sighed helplessly, and then answered honestly: "I let Eleven patrol."

"Patrol! Dericul, you are really good!" Winnie laughed in anger, "That is a patrol that can only be done by the planetary level, and you let Eleven, who is an apprentice level nine, go!"

Dericul hurriedly explained: "With Eleven's strength, there is no problem in patrolling. Even the planetary level three night bird can't do anything to him in a short time."

"But even so, you shouldn't let Eleven go! He is only fourteen years old!"

"Yes! Eleven is fourteen years old now!" Dericul Kul nodded first, then asked, "Don't you think Eleven is slacking off now?"

Winnie's tone softened a little, "Eleven is a little... but he can't go on patrol."

"Why not!" Derikul asked again, "Do you know the current situation of the family?"

"Family? Isn't the family good?" Winnie asked carefully, "Is there something wrong?"

"Good?" Derikul shook his head, "The family's situation has not been very good over the years."

Forty years ago, because Ron Royce, the second oldest of the second generation, emerged in the star training camp with many geniuses, the Royce family entered its peak period.

The founder of the family, Royce, skipped the seat of Chaoguang City Councillor and directly ran for the position of Chaoguang City Lord.

Derikul continued, "Father once had an advantage in the competition for Chaoguang City Lord, but with the death of the second brother in the star training camp, father failed in the competition for Chaoguang City Lord, and even the proposal to become a councillor was rejected by the parliament.

"I think my Royce family now has two star-level powerhouses and ten planetary-level ones. The proposal to become a member of parliament for a family with a comprehensive strength exceeding half of the parliamentarians was stuck in the parliament and could not make any progress.

"The reason is that the family was established for a short time, has a shallow foundation, and has become stronger quickly, which has caused jealousy.

"To break this situation, only Xiaoyi can enter the Star Training Camp, and Eleven can show his talent in Chaoguang College and the Joint Training Camp, and suppress all hostility with the talents of the two. "

At this point, Derikul paused and said in a helpless tone: "But Eleven is slack now. If you don't force him with some means, he will probably not change.

"Let him see the real grassland, that's good."

After listening quietly, Winnie understood her husband's good intentions, but she was still worried: "But I'm still worried..."

Drikul hugged his wife's shoulders and comforted her: "Don't worry, Eleven will be fine."

Winnie leaned on her husband's shoulder and nodded gently, "Yeah."

...

At the same time, in the dim sky, Li Qi looked at the tribal camp with a little fire in the grassland ahead, and felt much more relaxed.

"Finally arrived."

Starting from the family residence, rushing to one tribe after another, he was physically and mentally exhausted.

The tribes whose strongest were only apprentices at the ninth level made it difficult for him to stop, and he had to rush to the next tribe as soon as possible.

Because every beast tide attack is a big loss for those weak tribes, not to say that there are a lot of casualties, but those domesticated monsters that are grazed will lose a lot.

Li Qi learned from a tribe that once the monsters invading from the inner circle of the grassland encounter human tribes, they often choose to attack large domesticated monsters first.

Especially for carnivorous monster groups, if they encounter them during migration, they will lose a large number of domesticated monsters, and there may even be a situation where there is no one left.

Tamed monsters are the most important wealth of grassland tribes. Every part of their bodies is very useful. It can be said that if a tribe loses a large number of domesticated monsters, then the tribe will face a catastrophe.

"I am Li Qi Royce of the Royce family, currently serving as a patrol officer."

After approaching the camp, Li Qi stopped more than a hundred meters away from the tribe's camp to avoid misunderstandings, and did not rush in.     After a brief commotion in the camp, a middle-aged man walked out, "I am Yax, the leader of the Hahru tribe."

"This is an email from Chaoguang City about the coming of the beast tide."

Li Qi did not say anything more, and directly projected the email with the Chaoguang City seal.

The middle-aged man Yask walked a little, and after confirming that there was no problem with the projected email, the projected light looked at Li Qi.

At first, he just thought that the patrol officer in front of him was very young.

But then he found that the young patrol officer looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

After thinking carefully for a while, he asked tentatively: "Are you the eleventh of the Royce family?"

"I am the eleventh of the Royce family, who are you?"

"Remember the beast tide two years ago? You and I were in the same defense zone."

After being reminded, the figure in Li Qi's mind overlapped with the Yask in front of him.

"It's you, the uncle who was in charge of the defense command at that time."

He remembered that when he participated in the Beast Tide Trial for the first time two years ago, he didn't understand many things, and it was the defense zone commander at that time who answered all the questions one by one.

And that defense zone commander was the man named Yask in front of him.

"I didn't expect you could recognize me."

Seeing Li Qi recognize him, Yask was a little happy, but also a little melancholy.

Time has passed, and the little guy who needed his guidance when he first participated in the Beast Tide Trial and didn't even get a name has now reached the level of being able to serve as a patrol, while he is still standing still.

"I still remember that you taught me a lot of knowledge at that time, uncle."

Li Qi was emotionally mixed. The defense zone commander who was an apprentice level 9 at the time is still an apprentice level 9 now.

The hurdle from apprentice level to planetary level has stopped too many people, and the man in front of him is probably one of them.

Yask invited: "Come in, it's dark and it's not convenient to go back, it's not too late to leave tomorrow."

"Okay."

Li Qi nodded and agreed. He had this plan.

The two walked into the Hahru tribe camp.

Under the light of the fire, Yask noticed the tired look on Li Qi's young face.

"Thank you for coming to inform us in time."

Yask had also seen the time when the Chaoguang City email was sent. How could he not understand that Li Qi came here without stopping just to inform them of the coming of the tribe's beast tide?

"I'm patrolling, this is my duty." Li Qi smiled, and then asked: "By the way, has your tribe decided which shelter to go to?"

"Not yet, this needs to be decided after discussing with the elders."

"If your tribe wants to go to my Royce family for refuge, I can go with your tribe."

Hearing this, Yask paused, a hint of joy appeared on his face, "Really?"

"Yes."

Getting Li Qi's affirmative answer, Yask smiled happily, "Great, I will persuade the elders to go to the Royce family for refuge."

With an apprentice-level ninth-level spiritualist in charge, their losses on the migration road will be greatly reduced, of course, the premise is that they will not encounter planetary monsters.

Li Qi rested in the Hahru tribe for one night, and the next morning...
