Chapter 490 Closed-door discussion (fourth update, please vote)

Night, Tapir Temple, the room of the Eighth Generation Wizard.

The flickering firelight shone from behind the Eighth Generation Wizard onto Ju's face, illuminating Ju's face while the Eighth Generation Wizard's face was hidden in the darkness.

"Are you all ready?"

The Eighth Generation Wizard's voice was hoarse and tired.

These Totem Wizards of Tianhuo City took turns to communicate with him, some opposed, some tried to object, anyway, they didn't let him have any free time.

Even in the middle of the night, the Sword Tribe Wizard and the Spring Wizard were still waiting outside.

"Three thousand troops, four thousand Fire Tribe warriors, four thousand Wolf Tribe warriors, five hundred Tree Tribe warriors, thirty Code Tribe walking judges, a total of 11,530 troops, four thousand giant wolves, all ready."

Ju replied in a low voice.

He looked at the Eighth Generation Wizard with some worry. There were many dissenting voices in the Fire City now, and the Eighth Generation Wizard was under great pressure.

"Have all these warriors gained the power of the Moon Totem?"

the Eighth Generation Wizard asked again.

The warriors were mobilized very quickly, but it took nearly two months for them all to have the power of the Moon Totem.

"All of them have,"

Ju answered affirmatively.

The Eighth Generation Wizard nodded, and then instructed worriedly: "If there is a battle, they must use the power of the Moon Totem. During the battle, you lead the army, but the leader of the Moon Tribe must be the leader holding the bloodthirsty gun."

"Understood."

Ju replied.

The Eighth Generation Wizard nodded again, wondering if there was anything he had missed.

"Witch, taking away so many troops, will the situation in the Fire City be unstable?"

Ju asked worriedly.

The eighth generation witch shook his head, a relieved smile on his face.

"No, I'm here, the God of Fire is here, you just do your own thing."

Ju nodded again, but his face was still a little worried.

"Go, Xin has been urging you for a long time. Now there are tribes in Longcheng trying to escape. The longer you delay, the more passive Xin will be."

The eighth generation witch waved his hand and let Ju leave.

"Call Chun Wu in, tell Dao Wu that you won't see him today, I'll talk to Chun Wu."

Ju pounded his chest and accepted the order, and slowly left the dim room.

…………

Night, Donghai City, the city lord's mansion.

"The five cities of the alliance say that Fire City is the richest, but I don't believe it."

Shao sat at the top of the hall, with the witches and leaders of the stag totem on his left and right, and the witches and leaders of the 16 spirit totem tribes below.

There were nearly 40 people in the whole hall, and everyone was quietly looking at Shao at the top, listening to his speech.

Some people had impatience on their faces, some listened attentively, and some frowned. The witches and leaders of each tribe had different expressions.

"If you ask me, our Donghai City is the richest. Salt is indispensable. Fish and meat can fill the stomach. How many people want to take a bite of such a big piece of fat meat?"

Shao glanced at the witches and leaders who looked similar, paying attention to their expressions.

"Why didn't other tribes invade here? The coastline is so long, and salt fields and fishing grounds can be opened anywhere? Salt witch, tell me the reason."

Shao stretched out his hand and pointed to a witch in the front row.

The Salt Tribe, a newly born tribe, relied on its powerful salt-making ability. With the help of the Fire Totem, the totem quickly advanced to the spiritual totem realm.

"Relying on the God of Fire."

The Salt Witch's voice was loud. He turned his head and scanned the witches and leaders behind him, his eyes like knives.

In the entire East Sea City, except for the Stag Tribe, the most supportive of the promotion of the God of Fire are the Salt Tribe and the Water Tribe.

The former is good at making salt, and the latter is good at building fisheries.

There is no Water Tribe among the sixteen tribes now, because all the work in East Sea City needs to be done outside the city, so many tribes need to stay outside, and the Water Tribe is among them.

"Now the God of Fire needs your support, what do you do?"

Shao picked up a beast skin scroll from his side, flipped through it, raised his head, and looked at a witch in the crowd.

"Yan Wu, since I came to Donghai City, you have been colluding everywhere, saying that the God of Fire wants to kill all totems and become the only totem. Is this what you said?"

Shao frowned and looked at Yan Wu.

Yan Wu was frightened when he was named, and now he is trembling even more.

"I... I heard it too."

Yan Wu argued in a low voice.

"Who told you that?"

Shao looked at him sternly, rubbing his hands on the animal skin scroll.

"I heard... I heard... It's hard to say."

Yan Wu hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and didn't say who instructed him.

"Confused."

Salt Wu jumped up in anger, turned around and came to Yan Wu, grabbing his linen clothes.

"Who gave you this hemp clothing? When your tribe came to Donghai City, you wrapped your body with tree leaves. Who gave you all these? Tell me, you can't stay here unless you tell me about the salt field."

The Rock Witch was startled by his pulling, and after hearing his words, his expression became even more tangled.

"Salt Witch, forget it, let's not talk about this matter."

Shao waved his hands to stop the Salt Witch from interrogating him.

"He is a traitor."

The Salt Witch pointed at the Rock Witch and said.

Shao still waved his hands, determined not to let him continue to torture.

"Looking at this situation, it's what the Totem Realm Tribe told him. If you force him out, everyone will be embarrassed, and the Rock Tribe will also suffer because of this. It's unnecessary."

Shao waved his hand again and said.

"Look, look, who is helping you and who is harming you, you bastard who doesn't understand the situation."

The Salt Witch pushed him back to his seat, said unsatisfiedly, and walked back to his seat and sat down.

"Promoting the Fire God Cult does not mean that the Fire Tribe will destroy all the tribes. Doing so is just to make the Fire God a real god."

Shao rubbed his temples tiredly.

He has been communicating with these people for more than a month. He has talked to each person individually. This time he sat down to talk, he wanted a definite result.

"Now that Ganymede is in the west, who can stand up to him? Look at the tribes on the prairie, they are driven by the beast army to attack each other, countless people have died and injured, and many totems have been broken. Is this the result you want?"

Shao's words made everyone frown, even those who had previously disdained it were a little worried.

"When the saint is here, the Mountain of Gods cannot come, but the saint is dead. This is what the deified Ice Bear Totem said. When the saint's power is gone, the Mountain of Gods army attacks. If the God of Fire has not become a god, who will protect you?"

"The saint is still here."

Someone said.

"The Dragon Tribe has ruled this continent for many years, but it is gone just like that. The saint is dead, and it is uncertain when the power will disappear."

Shao explained and brought the topic back. "The

purpose of the Fire God Cult is to unify the faith. It doesn't mean that you can't believe in your own totems. It just means that you can believe in one more totem on top of that. Didn't you believe in the Fire God before?"

This topic made everyone silent. They didn't dare to say many things in their hearts.

"Without the Fire God, how many of your tribal totems can become spiritual totems? Speak up."

The Salt Witch jumped out and accused again.

"It's not that I don't want to do this, but... if we continue to believe in this way, will anyone still believe in our own totems in the future?"

Finally, someone couldn't help but speak out what was in their heart. This was what they were worried about.

"I was born in the Yin tribe. I believe in the Fire God and the Yin totem."

Shao spoke up and used himself as an example.

"I have also thought about whether I will stop believing in the music totem in the future. After thinking about it, I think I won't."

Some people looked at him in confusion, hoping that he would explain, while others looked at him with contempt, thinking that he had already forgotten the music totem.

"Because I like music, people who know me know that I am a music teacher and I have not resigned yet. Anyone who likes music can like the music totem. It is not that we believe in the God of Fire and stop believing in our own totems."

This statement was recognized by some people, but some people were still stubborn and could not accept it.

"The totem was not created by the God of Fire."

Someone spoke in a low voice. He wanted to hide in the crowd and say this, but he could not hide in this not noisy environment.

Shao did not pay attention to him deliberately, because it would make people think that he was targeting this person.

"I know that this world was not created by the God of Fire either."

Shao said affirmatively.

Many people looked up at him in surprise. Since he knew all this, how could he believe it?

"For the God of Fire to become a god, a more pure and extreme belief is needed. This is to promote the God of Fire to become a god. If there is no ice bear totem to become a god, no Ganymede, and no Mountain of the Gods, there is indeed no need to be so anxious. But there is no if. The Fire Tribe Alliance is now in crisis. We must speed up our steps."

Shao Xiao appealed to the emotions and reason, and negotiated with everyone on an equal footing.

"If everyone believes in the God of Fire in the end, what if the children do not believe in their own totems?"

Someone else asked the question, and Shao's serious expression relaxed a little.

If there is negotiation, there is communication. If there is communication, it is a target that can be persuaded. If you always refuse to negotiate, that is terrible.

"Which totem has the most believers in the Fire Tribe Alliance?"

Shao asked the man.

"The God of Fire."

The man answered immediately.

Shao shook his head and said, "Many small tribes don't know the God of Fire, but know the Bull Totem. It is well documented that the Fire Tribe Alliance knows the God of Fire the most, but when choosing to believe, more people choose to believe in the Bull Totem."

This answer surprised everyone. They really didn't know about the Bull Totem.

It's not that Donghai City doesn't farm, but salt and fish are developed here. Farming is not as fast as fishing, so there are not many people who farm, and even fewer people who believe in the Bull Totem.

"You run salt fields and fish fields, so you have to sell them. When you go west, you must have seen large farms. Do you think those people believe in the God of Fire?"

Shao asked, looking at everyone.

Everyone was silent. They had dealt with the people on the farm.

The people on the farm did believe in the bull totem. If they had a second choice, they would choose to believe in the sun totem because it could resist the cold.

"You know the past of the Bull Tribe. A tribe made up of a bunch of savages could become the largest tribe of the Fire Tribe. But how did they choose? They believed in the God of Fire unconditionally because it was the God of Fire that allowed them to eat and drink enough and let them choose their lives freely."

Shao rubbed his throat. His voice was a little hoarse.

But he couldn't stop. This time, he wanted to hold everyone in this room to discuss a final result.
