Astral Gods

Chapter 83 Arranging Training Insects

"Not yet," Lord Purple Plum estimated. "The Red Heart Cherry Divine Seed has been planted for less than a year, so it may not flower and bear fruit yet. But if it does flower, it will probably be in the next few days!"

"You should pay attention to this. See how many flowers it blooms. If it is truly a divinely bestowed seed, then it will be of great help to our tribe."

The Green Bamboo Armor King knew quite a bit about divine-grade fruits. It knew that under normal circumstances, if the Red Heart Cherry Divine Gift Seed were to be promoted to a divine-grade Divine Gift Seed, the fruit's effect would most likely be to awaken a metal-type talent or to grant metal-type abilities.

If it were to grant a metal-type ability, a single fruit could fetch millions of primal stones. Even if it weren't sold to outsiders, most of the rhinoceros tortoise warriors in the tribe, including the tortoise itself, could awaken an additional ability by consuming one.

If it's a metal-type talent, then it's even more incredible, with a starting price of four or five million raw stones, and it's the kind that's priceless and unavailable.

Within their Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe, there are many warriors like Zizhu who have awakened earth-type talents but not metal-type talents, and they have an urgent need for this fruit.

Once they awaken their metal-type talent, they will possess three types of talent, making them absolutely top-tier among insectoids of the same level.

"I understand." Lord Zili knew that since everyone learned that the yew could enhance the Divine Seed, everyone had high expectations for the Red Heart Cherry Divine Seed, but this matter would not be resolved in a short time.

"King Green Bamboo, aren't the Thousand Star Islands selecting advanced and mountain lord-level Zerg warriors to join the coastal defense force? If we want to get involved, I think we can send more Rhinoceros Tortoise warriors to participate in the selection; that should increase our chances of being selected quite a bit."

King Qingzhujia understood the tricks of the trade even better: "Every year, a certain number of warriors are selected from the Thousand Star Islands to participate in coastal defense training. Only the mountain lord-level Zerg warriors who meet the strength requirements can join the coastal defense team and receive a salary."

The reason they are selected from high-level warriors is not only because high-level warriors have unlimited potential and may awaken many terrifying abilities.

Furthermore, since advanced warriors don't need to pay any fees to participate in training, it doesn't matter to them whether you send ten or a hundred advanced warriors.

Lord Zili's heart skipped a beat: "Does that mean many tribes would be willing to send their young warriors to the Thousand Star Islands to train their combat abilities?"

"Let them choose for themselves. After all, on the Thousand Tree Continent, planting forests and cultivating divinely bestowed seeds to gain the favor of the true god of nature is the mainstream!"

After Qingzhu Jiawang said that, Lord Zili understood.

To put it bluntly, the Zerg warriors are not a warlike race. If it weren't for the need to fight against the Sea Beast Kingdom, the Thousand Star Islands would never have formed a coastal defense force for war. Under such circumstances, there would naturally not be many Zerg warriors who enjoy fighting.

"Should our tribe send the young warrior over?"

King Qingzhu looked at Lord Zili: "What are your thoughts?"

Sending young warriors to the Thousand Star Islands for training means paying this amount of Primogems regardless of whether any warriors are selected for the coastal defense force. Two hundred and one thousand Primogems is not a small sum for the Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe.

Lord Zili pondered for a moment and said, "I would like to have the three Yew brothers join the coastal defense training team as well. The three brothers currently possess 14 divinely bestowed seeds."

Once the yew trees advance to the advanced stage, they'll have more divinely bestowed energy food than they can eat. With more training and more divinely bestowed energy food that strengthens their elements and physique, the probability of them awakening their abilities after advancing to the Mountain Lord level will be much higher.

"Those three?" King Qingzhu was quite worried about this: "The Zerg warriors in the coastal defense force often suffer casualties. The yew has nurtured so many divinely bestowed seeds; if something goes wrong, it will be too late to regret it."

Lord Zili said, "We'll just let them train there during the advanced stage. Once they advance to the Mountain Lord level, they won't join the coastal defense force. Anyway, they definitely won't lack this little bit of primal force food by then."

My main concern is that Xiangjiao Island has been peaceful for a long time and doesn't have many opportunities for fighting, while the three brothers possess a great deal of wealth.

Without sufficient strength, it will be difficult to protect these treasures in the future. Training them early will allow them to become pillars of our Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe.

The Green Bamboo Armor King countered, "The Purple Cedar currently possesses over a dozen divinely bestowed life seeds. These life seeds are gradually awakening their soul consciousness. As it ages and evolves, the number of life seeds increases. The three brothers can barely take care of all of them; how could they possibly have time to travel to the Thousand Star Islands for training?"

Lord Zili had anticipated this: "Once the Zishan brothers advance to the advanced stage, their growth rate will slow down, and then they can take turns participating in training."

If all else fails, you can have the Snow Lotus Queen Bee breed another Queen Bee to help manage the offspring, or you can buy a Queen Bee or Queen Ant from the Flame Spider Merchant to manage the offspring for them.

Everything must be done with the premise of ensuring their normal production of Force food!

Lord Zili's words sounded somewhat illogical, but King Qingzhu did not immediately refute them. Instead, he silently calculated in his mind that paying 21 raw stones every year was definitely a loss, but the Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe also needed to make long-term plans.

Since we are preparing to relocate to the Thousand Star Islands, we cannot hesitate and will have to send Zerg warriors to join the coastal defense forces sooner or later.

Moreover, their Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe is formidable in combat, and each Rhinoceros Tortoise warrior possesses dual-elemental talents, making them highly likely to join the coastal defense force.

It immediately approved, saying, "That's fine. After the February flowers bloom, select thirty high-level warriors and ten mountain lord-level warriors from the main tribe of the Double-Forked Golden Beetle, along with the Sea God Hercules Beetle tribe, the Halberd Hercules Beetle tribe, the War God Hercules Beetle tribe, the Mammoth Hercules Beetle tribe, the Forked Rhinoceros Golden Beetle tribe, and more than a dozen other affiliated tribes to participate in the Thousand Star Islands coastal defense warrior training!"

"As for the three Zishan brothers..."

"First ask them if they are willing to go over for training? If they are not, then there's no need to say anything."

If they wish, then send one to the Thousand Star Islands first, and once the Yew reaches the rank of advanced warrior, the three brothers will take turns going there.

Lord Zili agreed: "Alright, let's arrange it this way for now."

Zizhu asked timidly, "King Qingzhu, Lord Zili, will the Thousand Star Islands agree to this?"

The two insects looked at Purple Pearl, who seemed a little dazed.

Each year, their tribes hand over more than 200,000 Primal Stones worth of Primal Force food, and they would love for as many Zerg warriors as possible to be sent by their tribes to train.

Moreover, the Twin-Forked Rhinoceros Golden Turtle tribe possesses both metal and earth elemental talents, making them adept at defensive warfare.

Sea God Hercules Warriors excel in naval warfare, War God Hercules Warriors possess fire-type talents, and Longhorn Giant Beetles typically possess lightning-type talents. Even if they can't fight siege battles, they are still good at defensive battles and building fortifications.

If it weren't for this reason, why would the Thousand Star Islands specifically send Zizhu back to ask for their opinion?

Clearly, they valued the various abilities of their tribal warriors.
