Chapter 56 Will be outside
The sky brightened.
Zhang Yang enjoyed his hearty breakfast comfortably, without having to worry about being snatched away by others.
Not far away, dozens of members of the Guata tribe were looking at him with fear and horror. After all, for them, everything that happened last night was really beyond their understanding. Perhaps this incident would be included in the most legendary and epic myth of the Guata tribe, if this tribe could continue to survive and multiply.
"What was the reward for yesterday's side quest to get fire?"
After Zhang Yang was finally full, he asked Wu Yuan who was also eating voraciously in front of him. With his physique, he had already eaten half of the ferocious beast and seemed to be still not full.
"The reward is a bit strange. It is 10 points, which need to be settled after completing the trial."
"Then don't worry about it. Your mission today is to equip all the adult men in the Guata tribe with spears. Without proper weapons, their size and strength would be wasted. Tomorrow we will forcibly annex the Erhu tribe, followed by the Huaka and Suolu tribes."
Zhang Yang did not mention the Gollum tribe, which is where the main plot of this movie world takes place, and he is cautious about this.
The four tribes of Guada, Huaka, Suola and Erhu all died before the plot began, so you can do whatever you want with them, but let's put the Gollum tribe on hold for now.
Next, Zhang Yang continued to go to the campfire and think about how to improve the power of the fireball and reduce the consumption of soul power.
That’s right, he did successfully create an extraordinary fireball last night, and killed two elite beasts and an ordinary beast in a row within a few hours.
This result is enough to prove that Zhang Yang's thinking is correct and also proves the wide range of uses of soul power.
But there is one thing: this kind of Zhang-style burning has many disadvantages.
First of all, a large pile of firewood must be ignited to form a flame of at least three cubic meters, otherwise Zhang's fire cannot appear.
Secondly, because it uses highly compressed and almost materialized soul power instead of the mana structure, it consumes a lot of energy. Even when Zhang Yang is at his peak, he can only release three fireballs in a row. If there is a pause of more than ten minutes in between, he can release four fireballs. This number is too small.
The third drawback is that it is too weak. Although being able to kill an elite beast in seconds is very good, what will appear in five days is a rare sand snake king.
Although the task of the Hero Trial stated that one could pass the level by killing 10 elite beasts or two rare beasts, Zhang Yang knew with a little thought that this was only the minimum requirement for passing.
With his and Wu Yuan's current strength, they could easily complete the task by simply abandoning the Guada tribe and targeting the elite beasts.
But if that happens, the reward will be too little.
It should be noted that this reward includes the upper limit of the village population recruitment, so Zhang Yang will not back down no matter what.
And if he really wants to unify the four tribes, then he will have to face four rare ferocious beasts, which will even trigger challenges of higher difficulty.
"Right now, I don't have the intelligence or time to change and optimize the mana structure. There are too many things to do, so I can only start with compressed air. Either the oxygen content in the air should be higher, or the amount of compressed air should be larger, such as 10 kilograms of compressed air at a time."
"But more compressed air means more soul power. I can't just throw one big fireball at a time. That's too unreliable."
"Well, why not change the idea? Fireballs are a form of attack, but can I list the two mana structures in the fourth closed circle separately and transform them into crossbows? No, no, I can't even make a Spear of Confinement right now, let alone a crossbow. Besides, letting these Neanderthals play with crossbows is just being a hooligan."
For a moment, Zhang Yang was overwhelmed because he could not think of any other means.
If you can't think of it, just don't think about it. Zhang Yang sat on the hillside and watched Wu Yuan seriously training fourteen adult men of the Guata tribe. This was a very interesting process, because Neanderthals were even dumber than the illiterate people in ancient times, especially since they could only communicate using simple syllables. Well, this was really a disaster.
When Zhang Yang had laughed enough and teased enough, he couldn't help but call Wu Yuan to give up on them. What's the point of recruiting Neanderthals like this? They were still too naive.
But at this moment, Wu Yuan's still meticulous training attitude made him think, and a bold idea emerged in his mind.
"What exactly is a true hero trial?"
"I keep saying that I treat Wu Yuan as a person, a hero of the village. Do I really need to arrange everything for him? Including planning for him in this hero trial, killing beasts for him, and handling any emergencies for him?"
"If that's the case, why do I need this hero trial? I can just be the hero myself."
"And this is definitely not the kind of hero I want!"
For some reason, at this moment, what Zhang Yang thought of was the heroic unit under the Deer Demon, the Black-skinned Mountain Monster. That was a very tragic guy. As a hero, he was killed by the quasi-hero Wu Yuan without even a line.
Before, Zhang Yang always thought that it was because of the power of the Spear of Confinement, but now it seems that the black-skinned mountain monster is really a hero?
How did it survive the heroic trials? It must have been because the deer demon used its own enormous fighting power to overcome all the obstacles.
So, as long as you have the attributes equivalent to a hero, you are a real hero?
"The definition of a hero should be someone who can stand on his own, who can turn the tide, who can do what others cannot, and who people can trust with confidence. This should be the original intention of the hero trial, right? Rather than simply killing a few beasts like in the game, where one can be considered a hero?"
"This hero trial may contain a hidden trial. This trial not only tests the hero's personal martial arts, but also his IQ, EQ, command ability, and psychological quality. Even I, the village chief, am in the hidden trial. What is being tested is whether I can truly trust my hero. Can I entrust my life and property to my hero? Can I truly trust my heroes?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Yang couldn't help but frowned, thought for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try.
Just based on one point, how can a true hero rely on the help of others to become a hero? This so-called hero trial is simply a big pit.
At that moment, Zhang Yang called Wu Yuan over and said directly: "I have made a new discovery about the fireball spell. This is very important, very important, so I will be in seclusion for at least 13 days. The trial is handed over to you. You will handle everything. As for my previous ideas, give them all up. You just need to make sure you complete the basic trial."
Hearing this, Wu Yuan was stunned and said hurriedly: "Village Chief, this is inappropriate."
"It's not right or wrong. I believe in you. If you can't even complete this hero trial, it means I was blind to think you are worthy of training. Even if I help you pass this hero trial, I will be dragged down and killed by you sooner or later when I return. In this case, it's better to die early than later. I have a piece of iced watermelon waiting for me at home!"
After saying this, Zhang Yang turned around and went into the cave without paying any attention to the stunned Wu Yuan. He would not come out from now on. If he didn't have this much courage, how could he be the village chief?
