Chapter 1806: Chapter 1806
Now acting as the beastman, Du You has to strictly follow the beastman’s rules in doing things. So he can only watch helplessly as the opponent’s spirit escapes, not daring to fight to keep it. The source of thɪs content is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
If he does fight, there will surely be eighth-tier or even higher-level people intervening.
At that time, he would be in trouble and might even be exposed, making the beastmen more vigilant.
However, by not fighting, Du You can still obtain the opponent’s corpse and divine rank as resources to enhance himself. At the same time, Du You’s reputation has become thoroughly established.
After all, this is a seventh-tier, and not like the previous special situation of the Jackal Man God, but a seventh-tier divine spirit that can freely move and fight anywhere, which is a very powerful deterrent.
Once the jackal men lost or won, they immediately stopped fighting and collectively kneeled. They had already been used as a wager, and while Du You couldn’t use them as slaves, he could use them as his subordinates.
And at the moment the jackal men submitted, Du You discovered some interesting things.
"So that’s how it is, the rules of this world are really strange."
Du You found that there were some subtle changes happening from the foundation itself in his territory, originally based on kobolds. Previously, his civilians and branch of the armed forces were all kobolds, but now there were jackal men added.
This is a situation that would be impossible to see in other worlds. It seems that in this world, as long as he can conquer more tribes, his subordinates can continuously increase in variety.
And increasing variety can also make his plans more covert.
Of course, since he used kobolds initially, the proportion of kobolds remains very large. Even if he can increase the variety of beastmen later on, the proportion of kobolds probably needs to stay above half.
No matter, it’s better to return and upgrade to the seventh-tier. Du You led his army back in the direction he came from.
As for the corpse of the jackal man leader, Du You thought about it and decided to only keep the divine rank for use. Once his territory advances, he plans to turn the seventh-tier corpse into a seventh-tier combat power.
Spending a little more resources to turn it into a seventh-tier kobold is no problem at all. After changing the appearance, Du You doubted anyone could recognize this guy’s true identity.
Externally, Du You’s reputation soared again, with the appearance of a seventh-tier kobold spreading far and wide. Kobolds everywhere received the news, even without Du You having to inform them personally, as there were dedicated people for spreading the news.
The most important thing is that with a seventh-tier kobold appearing, the kobolds will secretly gain recognition from the world’s will. From now on, kobolds are no longer a slave race.
They have broken away from the lowest class of races, and their treatment must change from before.
At this time, other beastmen were somewhat depressed. The largest wolfman group, the Werewolf Empire, had a group of upper class gathered. "What do you think of this matter?"
"The god of the kobolds has appeared, so indeed, the status of the kobolds cannot be the same as before; that’s the rule."
This rule wasn’t set by anyone but is recognized by the entire beastman world. If they break this rule, not even the Werewolf Empire can withstand an attack from the strong ones. Killing their seventh-tier strong directly wouldn’t bring any complaints against those who break the rules.
"But the problem is, our empire’s miners are primarily kobolds, and many laborers too."
That’s the biggest issue; they never found it a problem with the kobolds working, but with the situation suddenly changed, it’s different. Without kobolds, where would their weapons and equipment come from, and who would mine the ores?
And with many laborers, they certainly can’t let wolfmen do the work.
"Damn it, how did these damned lower races, the kobolds, come to have a seventh-tier? How did they do it?"
Kobolds were always known for being simple-minded and weak, and now that a seventh-tier has appeared, it’s simply a miracle. They never thought, no matter how they analyzed it, that kobolds could produce such a power.
"Why not improve their treatment and just adhere to the standard racial treatment while keeping their jobs the same? As long as we control a bit, who dares say we’re using them as slaves?"
"That’s a good approach, but who’s going to pay?" The number of kobolds is too immense, and the wealth involved is tremendous.
"Whoever uses the workers pays. If they can’t afford it, then they can get out. In short, for the safety and development of the empire, we cannot overly accommodate these guys this time." The impact of a seventh-tier kobold is yet unstoppable.
Given so, it’s better to go with the flow. If anyone dares cause trouble, just eliminate them.
Yes, the security of the empire is above all; let’s settle it this way.
Thus, the king of the empire agreed to this practice, and unrest began throughout the Werewolf Empire, and this is only the beginning. People elsewhere also coincidentally took various actions.
Some even wanted to go against the trend, not wanting to inform those kobolds of their situation, leading to many kobolds rebelling directly in various places. No one expected the usually obedient kobolds to suddenly resist, with many forces being annihilated on the spot. The sheer number of kobolds, even if less powerful, still formed a formidable force.
Unless the other side has a powerful guardian, resulting in the kobolds being slaughtered. Regardless, although such slaughters are detested among the beastmen, no one criticizes it, as it follows the rule of survival of the fittest.
Meanwhile, Du You’s territory finally advanced to the seventh tier, making future development easier.
When the territory advanced, Du You noticed more people coming to shield him secretly. Kobolds everywhere rushed to this place to seek refuge with him.
However, many issues arose, requiring more surface and underground cities and larger territories. Thus, Du You turned his gaze to the surroundings. The area once ruled by the jackal men now needed a new master.
At the same time, Du You also needed to demonstrate his strength to those kobold subordinates, particularly in military power. The next step of his plan should start with showing his strength.
As upheaval unfolded among the kobolds, Du You’s activities in this world became more frequent, constantly attracting the attention of the world’s will.
