Astral Cockroach

Currently, it is the most unstable period.

Ordinary beasts fight each other for territory.

Beast warriors clash, resulting in death for one side.

Beast warriors all possess intelligence and harbor hatred. Besieged and driven out by the roach warriors, they will bide their time for revenge.

Beast warriors who directly seek revenge are easier to deal with, as they can be ambushed with combined forces.

The troublesome ones are the clever beast warriors. They know how to endure, how to launch surprise attacks, and how to organize other beast warriors to launch joint sieges.

The current Sheep Hoof, Banyan, Red Tangerine, Iron Saber, and Jinping Mountains were all developed under the leadership of the Red-backed Roach King in the past century.

The Red Roach Tribe has rich experience in land reclamation and expansion.

Going out to hunt is the most likely cause of accidents.

Yellow Stripe, White Fluff, and Brown Skin, the three mountain lords, take turns on duty daily, each leading 5 senior warriors to hunt. Food for all members of Li Bamboo Peak is supplied uniformly.

There is also the issue of vigilance, but this task can be better handled by the 7 bamboo rat warriors, so it is the responsibility of Rat King.

In addition, there are the two naughty little fellows, Du Bamboo and Red Rice, who are personally supervised by Banbu.

Red Rice is worry-free, aware of the danger, abandoning the farmland at the foot of the mountain, and staying in its own territory every day.

Time passed until early November, when the Red-backed Roach King personally descended upon Li Bamboo Peak.

Sensing the movement, the members on the mountain came to visit one after another. Due to the large number, in the end, Feng Ling, Yellow Stripe, and the other two mountain lords stayed on the flat ground in front of the cave where Banbu lived.

Yellow Stripe asked, "Red-backed Roach King, is the battle in the north over?"

"It's over." The Red-backed Roach King was in a bad mood and said, "Our Red Roach Tribe lost 4 senior warriors, and Mountain Lord Mu Li was severely wounded by a saber-toothed tiger warrior at the mountain lord level."

"The Flying Fire Roach Tribe suffered heavy losses, with 11 senior warriors and 1 mountain lord level warrior killed in battle. Princess Xue Tao was also severely injured and nearly lost her life."

Banbu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but ask, "One mountain lord killed in battle?"

The Red-backed Roach King explained, "They were ambushed by a pack of forest wolves. Unexpectedly, there was a princess-level forest wolf warrior hidden in the pack, as well as two mountain lord level forest wolves."

"I, Roach King Changsheng, and Roach King Gutong, tracked them for nearly 10 days before finding and killing that princess-level forest wolf warrior."

A heavy silence fell.

Battles inevitably result in casualties. Hearing the bad news of the death of fellow clansmen, it is still inevitable to feel a burst of sadness.

After a pause, the Red-backed Roach King solemnly said, "The Red River Mountains have the largest number of forest wolves. The forest wolf warriors are cunning, knowing that they cannot be resisted, they scattered and fled, mainly entering the Big Eucalyptus Mountains and Jinping Mountains. Forest wolves are ferocious, vengeful, and insidious. Entering the Iron Saber Mountains, they will definitely bide their time for revenge."

"In addition, the beast warriors in Yau Ma Tei are even more rampant, with even larger numbers, and a large number of them broke through the encirclement and fled south, entering the Jinping Mountains, indirectly crossing the mountains again and entering the Iron Saber Mountains."

"The situation may be much more serious than expected."

"There is still some time before spring. I, Princess Youli, Princess Daye, Princess Qinggang, and Princess Yunsong, will lead 500 senior warriors and 10 mountain lords to conduct the first search of the Iron Saber Mountains. Next winter, we will gather more combat power to conduct the second search."

"The Iron Saber Mountains' warriors are scattered and difficult to defend, so first ensure the safety of the Iron Saber Mountains."

After the Red-backed Roach King finished speaking, he looked at Banbu and sighed, "Banbu, your Jinping Mountains have complex terrain. Princess Youli and I have estimated that to conduct a thorough search, we would need to gather at least 3,000 warriors, and it would be easy to suffer losses…"

"Princess Youli and I believe that it is more prudent to adopt the method used during the initial land reclamation. You first stabilize your occupation of Li Bamboo Peak, and the small warriors born should also stay in Li Bamboo Peak to develop. Starting from the year after next, every winter, I and the other princesses of our Red Roach Tribe who can be dispatched will come to search and kill the beast warriors as much as possible."

"Killing one less is one less. Year after year, after several years, the rampant beast warriors in the Jinping Mountains will be eliminated, and the territory will basically return to tranquility."

Banbu thought for a while and asked, "Red-backed Roach King, have all the princess-level beast warriors been killed?"

The Red-backed Roach King nodded his antennae and replied, "All those who have shown their faces have been found and killed. There may still be some who haven't shown their faces. They don't have the courage to be enemies with our roach clan and consciously hide themselves. According to the rules, they don't dare to easily launch attacks on the roach territory."

Banbu said, "That's good. Thank you for your trouble."

The Red-backed Roach King shook his antennae and said, "There is another bad news. The Flying Fire Roach Tribe will also dispatch roach kings and princesses every year to search for the beast warriors hiding in the Big Eucalyptus Mountains and Jinping Mountains."

"This…" Banbu said, "Since it's already like this, why not go all out and take the opportunity to develop the Big Eucalyptus Mountains and Jinping Mountains."

The Red-backed Roach King said, "The Flying Fire Roach Tribe doesn't like these two barren lands, and our Red Roach Tribe can't spare more warriors to occupy them in a short time. Reducing the number of beast warriors in them is the best solution."

"I understand." Banbu could only answer this way.

"Yellow Stripe, go and rest." The Red-backed Roach King flapped his wing veins and said, "Banbu, come, take me to see your God-given seed."

Without Banbu leading the way, the Red-backed Roach King took the lead in flapping his wing veins and flew down the mountain.

Blood Thorns are woody shrubs with high fruit yields, decent quality, and two enhancement effects, making them valuable.

Of course, the Red-backed Roach King valued Banbu's Blood Thorn God-given seed the most.

"Banbu, the tree spirit is very strange! It doesn't seem to be afraid of me at all?"

"Banbu, who is it?"

The Red-backed Roach King and the Blood Thorn Tree Spirit asked at the same time.

The roach king's soul is keenly perceptive, able to capture and distinguish the intentional information transmitted by the tree spirit.

Through frequent contact, the Blood Thorn Tree Spirit finally remembered "Red Roach Tribe" and understood that these were Banbu's clansmen and would not harm it.

Banbu explained to the Red-backed Roach King, "The Blood Thorn plant species is quite special, and the Blood Thorn Tree Spirit is also different in nature from other tree spirits. It never rejects life forms that don't threaten it, no matter how powerful they are."

At the same time, Banbu conveyed his intention to the Blood Thorn Tree Spirit, introducing, "It is the Red-backed Roach King."

The Blood Thorn Tree Spirit immediately asked, "Is Red-backed its name? What is a Roach King?"

Banbu had patiently explained the three titles of mountain lord, princess, and roach king to it, but obviously, this thing couldn't remember such complex information.

Explaining it again would only lead to the same questions next time, so he simply ignored it.

The Red-backed Roach King solemnly said, "It's not a good thing for a tree spirit to lack a sense of crisis. Banbu, you need to pay more attention and be constantly aware. In the process of its growth, it may encounter some troubles without even realizing it."

Banbu said, "I understand, so I go down the mountain to check it every day."

"This is your best God-given seed, right? You actually planted it outside Li Bamboo Peak!" The Red-backed Roach King gently shook his antennae.

Sowing seeds in the mountains outside Li Bamboo Peak, where primal force is scarce, means that each year when thorn fruits mature, more primal stones need to be invested, greatly increasing operating costs and reducing net income.

The Red-backed Roach King flapped his wings and landed at the foot of the south side of Li Bamboo Peak, glanced at the Cattail God-given seed, and didn't say much.

Going up the mountain again, he checked the Amethyst God-given seed and the Emerald Bamboo God-given seed, only asking a couple of simple questions. Herbaceous God-given seeds are naturally of lower quality and have conventional elemental enhancement abilities, making them unremarkable. Their annual income is only one or two thousand primal stones, a world apart from his Red-backed Tree God-given seed, so he didn't care much.

Finally, he came to the Rain Bamboo God-given seed.

The Rain Bamboo Tree Spirit always expressed strong dissatisfaction with Banbu's behavior of bringing powerful life forms into its territory, transmitting intense intentions: "Banbu, who is this again? I feel like it will hurt me!"
