Witch Alchemist

Chapter 163 The whereabouts of the totem stone

"Lord Roy, we have almost finished what you told us to do!"

When Roy came out of the "Portable Small Alchemy Laboratory" again, he found that it was already bright outside.

Ottoli, Grete and others had been waiting at the door for a long time and couldn't wait to come over to report.

"The inventory of those supplies and materials, and the interrogation of the tribesmen..."

Roy listened for a while and nodded.

Then he heard Ottoli mention a problem that he was most concerned about.

"But the 'totem stone' of the Bloodhoof tribe...

We didn't find it!"

"Is it really lost?"

Ottoli said: "It doesn't look like it was obtained by other wizards. I guess it should have been taken away by several sons of Kairon."

"Oh?

Can you infer who it is?"

Although Roy was a little disappointed, he was not too surprised by the result.

In the melee, it was inevitable that loyal subordinates took advantage of the situation and took away the totem stone.

Last time, I was lucky, but I don't necessarily have such good luck every time.

Ottoly had obviously done some research and answered fluently: "It could be the tenth son Arcaton, or the twentieth son Ajax, or the thirtieth son Castor...

These are the more promising children left by Chiron, and their strength has reached the advanced level or above."

Roy nodded.

"This kind of thing is regarded as a sacred object by them. If it is really obtained by the centaurs of the Bloodhoof tribe, it will definitely fall into the hands of a qualified heir."

"Analyzing the whereabouts of this thing is actually analyzing the succession of the royal power of the Bloodhoof tribe and predicting the future location of the royal tent."

"Those who are too weak, or are considered to have bad behavior, cowardly, and mean, and have lost their qualifications for inheritance, can be directly excluded.

Many senior knights died in the battle before, and only the few mentioned by Ottoly are left. It is indeed possible."

Everyone analyzed and discussed.

Roy nodded, basically agreeing.

But he soon remembered something and said, "You missed one point. These more primitive tribes have always had a system of inheritance by the youngest son, similar to the 'youngest son guarding the stove'.

The major clans and small tribes are all separated from the major tribes, each with their own title or clan name.

The adult sons and daughters first set up their own households, and the youngest sons inherit the remaining property of their fathers, and even the concubines who have never given birth!"

Before and after arriving here, he had found some books recording local customs and habits.

Otherwise, facing these chaotic situations, he would be completely in the dark and would have no idea where to start.

After hearing Roy's words, Ottoli was stunned, and then slapped his thigh.

"How could I forget about this!

I'll go and ask!"

After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

...

Another half an hour passed.

Ottoli came back with excitement on his face.

"Lord Roy, I've found out!

In addition to those adult sons, there is indeed another young son, Yanis!

Now I finally figured it out, Chief Kailon has more than 30 wives and concubines, and hundreds of children!

Although Yanis is young, he is also ranked high because he is the youngest son!"

"That guy is really fertile!"

"You really deserve to be the chief!"

At this time, Andov, Damo and others also came to Roy to discuss other things.

After hearing Ottoli's report, he couldn't help but marvel.

Roy nodded: "These barbarians practice polygamy. Originally, only the strongest and most outstanding ones have the right to reproduce.

Kairon probably has many brothers and sisters, but many of them died or were injured in the struggle for the tribal front and the throne. He relied on his own talent and courage to gradually stand out and inherit the king's flag.

And by the time of Marcel and Kasside, they also had their own tribes to rule.

These brothers and sisters would also fight each other, seize power, and fight endlessly.

However, Kailong seems to have the ambition to change this custom. He decided to unify the southern border, conquer the prairie, and then deal with the wizard."

After saying this, Roy looked around and looked at everyone.

"I want to get the totem stone, but I can't split my time between them, so I'll leave the task of pursuit and investigation to you.

Each of you should bring a wandering soul messenger. When you find it or encounter fatal danger, you can tell me!

I'll rush to where you are then.

No mistakes!

This is an apprentice-level task, so the difficulty is set as difficult. The basic reward is 1,500 magic stones."

The danger level of this task is actually much higher than exterminating those fishmen in the native land.

But Roy then dismantled the elite guards under Atidiya and distributed them to them, greatly reducing the difficulty.

Not long after, everyone went out on their own.

Yanila was dissatisfied when she learned about it.

"Why don't you let me help? My Blood Mane tribe just took this opportunity to plunder them and take back the territory of our ancestors!"

After hearing this, Roy was speechless for a while.

How come you, the native chief, think the same as the wizards!

But the Blood Mane tribe and the Blood Hoof tribe had disputes hundreds of years ago.

The ancestors they each worshipped were all descendants of Emperor Urun, and they had lived together on the same land for generations.

But because of the harsh natural conditions, they were often in a state of competition.

The difference can be seen from the fact that the Bloodhoof tribe could mobilize more than 100,000 troops and command millions of people.

Yanila directly led a small tribe of a few hundred people.

She is now a great knight and has joined the wizard. Here comes her chance to counterattack and surpass!

Perhaps it is because of this investigation that her teacher has defined her as an important chess piece to control barbarians with barbarians.

With the motivation to expand her own tribe, she will definitely spare no effort to suppress the Bloodhoof Tribe, and there is no need to urge her.

Roy thought about it and said to her: "Your tribe will stay in the king's tent and take over the direct territory of Kairon.

I plan to ask the teacher to seal this place to you."

"Really?" Yanila immediately turned from anger to joy.

"Of course it's true, but you have to help me too. I plan to send Celine to ride on you to chase one of the remnants, and it is most likely the young Yanis tribe.

Several other wizards may also send their subordinates to fight for it. You must act quickly and strike first!"

"I promise to speed up the completion!"

Yanni kicked up his heels and pulled Celine away, raising a lot of dust.

Roy returned to the alchemy room and continued to take stock of the previous harvest and think about the issues of mounts and mobility.

However, he did not work in isolation, but used the communication crystal to contact his teacher.

"Do you have a flying mount or other similar magical creatures on hand?

Otherwise, an alchemy puppet or similar forging blueprints will also work.

I want to use the harvest this time to improve my mobility and facilitate my travels."
