Login Before Others: Stone Age Chapter 13

Ghoul Tribe

The area of Su Ming's second base almost occupied the entire entrance of the Elf Clan.

It was like a wall that separated the Elf Clan from the outside world.

Once Su Ming finished building it, he did not have any intention of stopping.

Just building such a building would be no different from an empty shell.

He still had many things to do next.

One of the most important projects was to build a Hunter's Hall in base no. 2 to strengthen the abilities of the Elves.

When Su Ming brought up this idea, Zelda naturally agreed to it at the first possible moment.

Zelda could clearly feel the changes in the Elf Clan after the second Tree of Life appeared.

Not only was the Elf Clan full of vitality again, but many of the Elves who had been bedridden before were also gradually recovering.

At that moment, she had already completely regarded Su Ming as a prophet. She did not have a single shred of doubt and would listen to his every word.

That was why Su Ming's idea was supported and acknowledged by all the Elves.

Soon, the Hunter Hall was built in the second base.

Most of the Elves in the Elf Clan were divided into two categories.

One type was the long-range Elven Archers, while the other type was the close-combat and scouting Elven Hunters.

Among the five Elf Hunters Zelda had sent to Su Ming, there were three hunters and two archers.

The Hunter's Hall could greatly enhance the combat power of these two types of Elven troops.

However, it was a pity that the size of the Hunter's Hall was not enough to support all the Elven Warriors at the same time.

Therefore, the Elven Warriors could only improve their combat effectiveness in batches under Zelda's arrangement.

Su Ming had only arranged for thirty Elven Warriors for the first batch, and that was already the limit of the Hunter's Hall.

Of the 30 Elven Warriors, 20 were Elven Hunters, and only 10 were Elven Archers.

Su Ming had made such arrangements because the current Elf Clan did not have the capital to expand outwards.

Therefore, there was no point in developing too many archers who were mainly for battle.

The most important thing to do was to stabilize the current situation of the Elf race.

From Zelda's words, Su Ming learned that the Elves were currently being attacked by outsiders.

Under such circumstances, what Su Ming needed to do the most was to give the Elves a sense of security.

It was necessary to improve the Elven Hunters who were good at scouting.

Their scouting ability was what the current Elf race needed the most.

As he thought about it, Su Ming went straight to the Hunter's Hall and started strengthening the abilities of the Elf Warriors.

[Elf Hunter's ability is being upgraded. The expected effect: Bird whisperer, affinity with birds, body movement enhancement.]

[Elf Archer's ability is being upgraded. The expected effect: Keenness, increased vision, increased accuracy of arrows.]

Once he was done upgrading the abilities of the Elven Warriors, Su Ming immediately asked them to look for owls from the tribe to tame.

These owls were raised in the Elf Clan and were close to the Elves.

Some Elves could even use them as their Scouts.

In the past, this was an isolated case.

However, after improving the abilities of the Elven Hunters in the Hunter's Hall, they would be able to tame an owl as their own observer.

With the owls' vision at night, Su Ming could know the situation within a certain area of the Elf Clan like the back of his hand.

In just one afternoon, the Elven Hunters returned to Su Ming excitedly with an owl.

With the owl's vision sharing, their scouting ability at night could be said to be invincible.

Su Ming looked at the Elf Hunters before him and was also very satisfied.

Once the Elf Hunters left, Su Ming chose to log out.

After a busy day, it was time to go offline.

Su Ming had a comfortable dinner at home and played with his sister for a while before he fell asleep.

The next day, when Su Ming went online again and was about to check on the Tree of Life, an Elf Hunter ran up to him with a slightly excited expression on his face.

Su Ming remembered him. His name should be Teda.

Su Ming could remember him only because he was one of the few male Elf Hunters.

The other Elven Hunters were basically female hunters.

“Great prophet, we discovered something unexpected last night.”

“What's going on?” Su Ming was slightly taken aback.

Teda's expression turned respectful when he heard this.

“It's all thanks to the great prophet that we've become stronger, giving us the ability to tame owls.

“Last night, when the great prophet was resting, my owl found traces of the ghoul squad in the forest.

“They're very cautious. I don't know if they're searching for something. There aren't many of them.

“If it wasn't for the owls, I might not have been able to find them.”

When he heard Teda say all this, Su Ming quirked his eyebrows.

Just as he was about to say something, Su Ming remembered something and spoke in a slightly serious tone.

“Then last night, when you found their tracks, did they find you?”

It did not matter if they found owls, as they were very common in the forest.

Even if the ghoul squad found the owl, they would not find it strange.

Teda immediately shook his head.

“Of course not. If it was before, I would have been discovered by them. After all, they are very cautious.

“But with the great prophet improving my movement and hiding abilities, a mere ghoul squad can't find my traces at all.”

Teda flattered Su Ming once again without anyone noticing.

However, what he said was indeed the truth.

If Su Ming had not built the Hunter's Hall to increase his power, he might not have been able to hide his tracks from the team of ghouls.

When Su Ming heard his words, he nodded in satisfaction.

After hearing Teda's words, he felt that these Ghoul squads were most likely here to investigate the Elf Clan.

It was a good thing that the Elven Hunter did not expose his whereabouts.

However…now that the team of ghouls had come looking for him, Su Ming felt that he could no longer continue to turn a blind eye to them.

Rather than letting the ghouls discover the Elf Clan first, it was better to make the first move and observe the situation of the Ghoul tribe in advance.
