Chapter 957: Still so servile
Regarding their Majesty, Ma Guotao found that sometimes he really couldn't disobey.
Getting a drop of blood from a supernatural being to promote the evolution of their Great Zhou's warhorses? He really had never thought of this.
Even he knew that there was a probability of failure.
How precious is the essence and blood of extraordinary creatures? If they fail, they are not sure whether that drop of essence and blood can be recovered.
At the same time, if the evolution fails, the Arabian horse will most likely die. How can it be so easy to absorb?
In order to increase the success rate, we must choose the best Arabian horse. If it fails and dies, the loss will be even greater.
Therefore, even if the essence and blood could be recovered, the loss of the Arabian horses would very likely make all his breeding work over the years in vain.
In comparison, feeding the essence and blood to the extraordinary creatures already within their Great Zhou, such as Qiansui, or to warriors in the Hundred Refinements Realm like Jie Liancheng and Zhou Chongshan, are better and safer options.
In fact, Zhou Xu had also thought about this problem.
But in Zhou Xu's opinion, war horses are more important!
Feeding the blood to Qiansui, Qiansui's individual combat power can indeed become stronger, but on the battlefield, can it kill tens of thousands of enemy troops? No! But the Xianzhen Camp can do it! And it only takes a successful charge!
Under this premise, if he can solve the problem of insufficient stamina and speed of the Xianzhen Camp's warhorses, then the value of the Xianzhen Camp, and even all the heavy armored cavalry in the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty, on the battlefield will be directly raised to a new level! Of course, this matter is said, but the difficulty of specific implementation is still very high.
For example, the first problem he needs to face now is where to get this drop of essence blood.
This wild extraordinary creature is not so easy to find.
Especially under the premise that most extraordinary creatures basically possess intelligence comparable to that of humans, as soon as they see that Da Zhou is not easy to mess with, they will stay away from him from the beginning and will not give him any chance to discover themselves.
This is also one of the main reasons why the Great Zhou has basically encountered no extraordinary creatures after it became stronger.
Those extraordinary creatures have brains. They knew they couldn't win, so they hid themselves long ago.
In fact, Zhou Xu had also thought about lowering his requirements. If he could catch a horse of exotic beast level, he could use it for breeding.
As for directly catching the extraordinary horse, Zhou Xu didn't have such an idea.
He felt that this extraordinary creature was difficult to control and might not obediently cooperate with them in breeding.
In any case, he just told Ma Guotao about the plan. As for how to implement the plan, it depends on whether he can encounter extraordinary creatures next time.
It is difficult for Zhou Xu to make any guarantees about this matter, but he does have some ideas.
Just as he and Ma Guotao were discussing this, a wolf howl was heard in the distance, causing the herd of horses here to fall into chaos.
To this day, there are still wolves on this grassland.
After all, the herdsmen’s cattle and sheep are the best food for wolves.
The enemy's target was not the horse farm here, but the herdsmen's sheep in the distance.
The frightened sheep began to flee in all directions. At the same time, dozens of vicious wolves entered Zhou Xu's sight.
Just when he was about to signal Chitose and Silk to take action to deal with the wolves over there, another wolf howl was heard from a distance.
Along with the wolf howl, more vicious wolves rushed out from all directions, leaving Zhou Xu stunned.
"Damn! Is this wolf pack so big?"
In his impression, the size of a wild wolf pack usually does not exceed thirty, at most around fifty, but the wolf pack that broke into his sight before him obviously exceeded that number.
Before Zhou Xu could think more, a white figure suddenly rushed in from the end of his vision.
It was a snow-white wolf. It was howling towards the sky in the outer area, as if it was issuing some instructions to the wolf pack.
From Zhou Xu's perspective, he quickly discovered that the wolves that entered later had quickly formed an encirclement from the outside.
However, this encirclement was not aimed at the flock of sheep, but at the wolves that appeared earlier.
At this moment, Zhou Xu had undoubtedly reacted, but at the same time, his interest became even higher.
While signaling Chitose, Silk and the others to stop, he observed the movements of the wolves in the distance with interest.
The size of the subsequent wolf packs was obviously larger, and the tactical thinking they displayed during the action was clearer and the execution efficiency was higher.
Seeing this, the result can be basically determined.
This is indeed the case.
The wolves that had targeted the flock of sheep were surrounded and intercepted the entire time and were soon hunted down.
Then, at the howling of the white wolf, the wolves commanded by it quickly dispersed, did the work of sheepdogs, and began to help the shepherd gather the scattered sheep.
The overall efficiency can be said to be unexpectedly high.
During this time, the herdsman quickly ran to the white wolf, bowed to it, then took out a large piece of beef jerky from his package and presented it to the white wolf respectfully.
Seeing this, White Wolf didn't hesitate and directly put the beef jerky in his mouth.
Just as it was showing off, Qiansui, who was lying at Zhou Xu's feet, couldn't stand it anymore and just snorted.
Invisibly, the pressure from the extraordinary creature quickly spread out.
At that moment, the white wolf obviously sensed something, his legs and feet trembled on the spot, and the large piece of beef jerky in his mouth fell directly to the ground. At the same time, he quickly lowered his body, lay on the ground, looking around until he found Qiansui's figure.
The moment he saw Qiansui, Bailang's eyes lit up, and then he immediately picked up the beef jerky and ran over happily.
Then he placed the beef jerky in front of Qiansui in a flattering manner.
In response, Qiansui simply rolled his eyes at it.
Needless to say, this is exactly the little white wolf from before, and also Qian Sui's lackey.
And those it commanded were not wild wolves at all, but domesticated wolves within their Great Zhou.
Because the white wolf itself is very intelligent, it now leads a group of domestic wolves and becomes the guard of the herdsmen on the grassland.
Their main task on weekdays is to deal with wild wolves and other beasts on the grassland to ensure the safety of the herdsmen of the Great Zhou.
When he was commanding the wolf to fight, he looked quite impressive.
Zhou Xu really didn't expect that after so many years, this little white wolf was still so servile at heart.
However, this also shows that Qiansui's deterrent power here is indeed at its maximum.
[Speaking of which, I felt at the time that this little white wolf should not be an ordinary albino wolf. Just its brain alone does not seem to be something that an ordinary wolf would have.]
With this thought in mind, Zhou Xu did not hesitate and directly launched the mantra.
[Eyes that pry into secrets! ]
