Gobu Ge shook his head.
"Boss, I've ried it!"
"Then go give it a try!"
Gobu Ge nodded and turo run deeper into the cave.
"Don't use the bst furnace, use the bonfire!"
"I know, Boss."
Watg Gobu Ge's figure disappear into the distance, Li Meng muttered to himself.
Will it explode?
If it does explode, I wonder how powerful it would be.
At this moment, Li Me both anticipation and a bit of nervousness.
Before long, Gobu Ge returned.
He was holding another Fire Crystal.
Because the boss liked glowing things.
Gobu Ge was very particur about colleg glowing objects.
Whether useful or not, he would gather some.
Arriving at the bobu Ge tossed the Fire Crystal into it.
"Whoosh!"
As soon as the Fire Crystal hit the bonfire.
The fmes suddenly turned an eerie blue.
"Ah!"
The scorg heat made Gobu Ge let out a scream.
He rolled and crawled away from the bonfire.
Screaming, he dashed into the river.
The surrounding goblins were also startled by the blue fmes.
They quickly moved away from the ter of the intense heat wave.
"Blue fmes?"
Uhe frightened goblin underlings.
Li Meng, not far away, was full of excitement.
Blue fmes indicate an ultra-high temperature phenomenon.
At least 2500-3000 degrees Celsius.
With the Fire Crystal, the efficy of iroing would increase several times.
Tempering would also beuch easier.
And perhaps even the silver ore could be smelted.
Just as Li Meng was feeling pleased, the bonfire suddenly went out.
It extinguished very abruptly.
One moment it was burning vigorously.
The moment, the fmes vanished.
As if suddenly doused with water.
The extinguishing of the fmes made Li Meng frown slightly.
He quickly approached the bonfire.
Upon closer iion, Li Meng realized what had happened.
The intense heat had instantly turhe firewood to ash.
Without fmes to ig, the Fire Crystal stopped releasing its magic.
"It seems charcoal isn't suitable as an igniter for the Fire Crystal!"
A trace of disappoi fshed in Li Meng's eyes.
He initially thought that with the Fire Crystal, iroing efficy would increase several times.
Now it seemed he was overthinking it.
Fet about charcoal, even coal wasn't qualified to ighe Fire Crystal.
The only thing that could serve as an igniter for the Fire Crystal might be magical alchemy.
Magic could gee fmes out of thin air.
As long as magical fmes could burn steadily and tinuously.
They could serve as an igniter for the Fire Crystal.
"Still o seize people!"
Li Meng shook his head and walked out of the cave.
Alchemy was only known by humans, so he had to seize them.
"Boss, boss, should we mihe Fire Crystals?"
Seeing the boss leave, Gobu Ge ier quickly shouted.
"Prepare some, but not too much."
"Boss, I got it!"
After leaving the Iron Cave, Li Meng hurried back to the throribe.
In the following days, Li Meng was busy tinkering with the sand table.
Seven days ter, at the throribe.
In the m, ihe throne cave.
"Finally done!"
Looking at the sand table in front of him, Li Meng nodded with satisfa.
The sand table hadn't grer.
It still covered an area of over ten square meters.
But the models inside had been miniaturized.
pared to the previous sand table, it was more detailed.
The previous sand table only had a small se of the Goblin River's banks.
Now, the sand table dispyed the entire Goblin Forest map.
Looking into the sand table, the mountains, forests, and rivers were lifelike.
There were also miniature watchtowers standing in the sand table.
Each watchtower represented a sub-tribe.
At a gnce, watchtowers were scattered throughout the Goblin Forest.
The distaween each watchtower was almost uniform.
On top of the watchtowers were small red and blue fgs.
The fgs were made of leaves.
Blue represented established tribes.
There were few, only twenty-one.
Mainly trated in the forests on both sides of the Goblin River.
The others were unbuilt tribes.
The popution limit for each tribe was 1000, with areme limit of 1500.
When a tribe's popution reaches 1500, they apply to the throribe to build a ribe.
At that time, the extra five hundred popution go to a new location to build a ribe.
The boss of each tribe has a fixed not a fixed goblin.
Whoever is strong rise to the top.
The goblin who rises automatically is the boss's name.
Take the Gobu Di tribe, for example.
If one day Gobu Di is defeated by an underling.
Then Gobu Di will lose the name Gobu Di.
The new boss will i his name.
If Gobu Di is still alive, he will i the new boss's previous name.
"Go call Gobu Mo!"
Li Meng turned and shouted towards the door.
A goblin guarding outside the door shivered.
It sprinted into the depths of the forest.
"Boss, boss!"
Before long, Gobu Mo's voice echoed from outside the door.
He trotted into the throne cave.
Sliding to his knees, he k behind Li Meng.
"Boss, you called me?"
"e here!"
Gobu Mo quickly crawled closer to the sand table.
Li Meng pointed with the Big Iron Rod at the southern shore of the Goblin River on the sand table.
"Which dire is this?"
Gobu Mo looked down at where the Big Iron Rod pointed.
He tilted his head, somewhat uainly pointing south.
"And what about here?"
Li Meng poio the Gobu Tian tribe.
"Boss, I know, I know, over there!"
Gobu Mo's hand pointed east.
Gobu Mo's answer made Li Meng very satisfied.
Being able tnize direeant he could read the map.
As expected of his desdant.
At least a bit smarter than oblins.
"Gobu Mo, you must remember these mountains, they are the most promi ndmarks!"
Gobu Mo nodded.
"Your task is to lead the assembled goblin army southward to expand the hunting grounds and build sub-tribes in this area."
Li Meng pointed with the Big Iron Rod to that area deep in the southern forest.
This expansion would delve five hundred kilometers into the Goblin Forest.
Gobu Mo would lead about eight thousand goblins to that area to build sub-tribes.
If all went well, by this time year, that area would be teeming with goblins.
"If you enter goblins from other s along the way, elimihem!"
Gobu Mo nodded vigorously with excitement.
He loved fighting the most.
This was an expedition, truly iing and thrilling.
"Remember t a few three-bow ballistae, they reduce losses when entering powerful magical beasts!"
The three-bow ballista had siderable power.
It could kill noe" magical beasts i.
Even Yue'e would find it hard to withstand a direct attack from a three-bow ballista.
Only "King rank" magical beasts could resist the attack of a three-bow ballista with their strong bodies.
"Boss, I got it!"
"Bring all the tools you , as much as possible."
"Bring plenty of bolts and bs too."
"Being too far from the throribe, these things are hard to replenish."
"Female Lizardmen 't be brought, as usual!"
"If you enter strong enemies and suffer heavy losses, you retreat."
Li Meng, like a true father, gave endless instrus to Gobu Mobu Mo k on the ground, obediently listening.
His big head nodded tinuously in response.
