Before Lu OG could come to his senses, two consecutive system prompts echoed in his mind, causing him to momentarily freeze.

And then a wave of joy quickly spread across his face.

Damn, did I finally level up since becoming a player? He had experienced numerous battles, leading troops into battle each time.

If there were experience points to be gained, he must have accumulated a lot.

Yet, his command level, capped at five stars, had remained stagnant, which made Lu G secretly anxious.

But now he had finally leveled up, he hurriedly opened his attribute panel to confirm.

Looking at his command level, which had grown to three stars, Lu G clenched his fist and took two deep breaths to calm his excitement so he wouldn't he suddenly shout out in the middle of the night.

The increase from two stars to three stars in command level had a significant impact on Luog's attribute panel because both his ruler talent and inspire morale skill were influenced by command level.

Now that his command level had risen, the effects of the talents and skills that depended on command would naturally improve as well.

Ruler talent as an excellent ruler.

Your civilization is as solid as a fortress.

All subjects have a default loyalty of 10.

The civilization's development speed increases by 30.

And the combat power of the army you lead increases by 30.

Inspire morale.

Active after activation, it raises overall morale by 45 through simple words and actions.

The change in the ruler talent meant that the civilization's development speed and the combat power of the army had both increased by an additional 10 compared to before.

While the improvement of the inspire morale skill was even greater, increasing from 30 to 45, a direct increase of 15.

Additionally, the battle tactic section, which should have been empty, now had a new tactic called drive wolves to eat tigers.

Luog clicked on this tactic and a detailed description window immediately unfolded.

Drive wolves to eat tigers.

When there are three or more forces on the battlefield, including your own, the success rate of inciting and luring two opposing forces to fight increases by 15.

After reading the description of this tactic, Lu G rubbed his chin and ponder for a while.

In simple terms, to use this tactic effectively, one needed to employ some strategy.

It was not as straightforward as a skill like inspire morale.

However, if used well, it could directly change the situation in a chaotic battle.

even achieving a clam and her content.

The fisherman profits effect.

With this in mind, Lu G felt more certain.

He closed the attribute panel and looking at the sky.

It was obviously impossible to rush back tonight.

The main issue was the corpses of the wolves and saber-tooththed tigers.

He couldn't he just leave them here waste.

He had to bring them back.

So, he decided not to mind the foul smell of the saber-tooththed tiger's den.

first gathering some branches to light a fire and then spending the night in that cave.

The night passed without incident.

The next morning, after a night in the cave, Lu G felt a bit sore and stiff.

After a short rest, he gathered his team, hoisted the corpses of the hungry wolves and saber-tooththed tigers, and set off rather ostentatiously on the road back to the Mingjing tribe.

The hall from this outing had definitely exceeded several days worth of work for the hunting team, even though wolf meat wasn't very tasty.

On the way back, everyone remained quite cautious.

After all, with so many corpses, the stench of blood must have been intense.

It was as if they were using an area indiscriminate taunt skill.

Previously, they had been in the territory of the saber-tooththed tigers, and other beasts did not dare to approach.

But now that they had left that dense forest, carnivorous beasts smelling the blood would likely follow the scent.

Just as Luog was thinking this, a group of beasts came into his line of sight from a distance.

There were about 13 or 14 of them, similar in size to wolves, but in appearance, they looked more like dogs.

Their fur was brown with numerous irregular black and brown spots, giving off a dirty impression that was hard to like.

Of course, they probably didn't need to be liked.

Lu Gi, who had done his homework recently, immediately recognized these carnivorous animals in the distance as hyenas.

It seemed that the harsh winter days were tough as these nocturnal hyenas had to come out during the day to hunt.

Lu G said this with a bitter expression, a sense of finding humor in adversity.

If the wolfpack was like an army in the animal world, then the hyenas before him could be classified as thugs.

However, this didn't t mean they were weak.

In fact, hyenas were tough and powerful, making them quite formidable opponents.

Thus, the term thug referred to their despicable cunning and insatiable greed.

Being targeted by them was definitely not a good thing.

Even if they didn't attack immediately, these hyenas would not simply leave.

They would follow closely until they achieved their goal.

At the same time, don't think that tossing a carcass to them as food would allow you to escape.

If that were the case, they wouldn't be described as greedy.

Chief, they're still following us.

When Lu Yong said this, his expression turns serious.

Why not just attack? With our numbers, we can fight.

Yes, we can't let them follow us any longer.

If they discover the location of the tribe, knowing the nature of these beasts, they will probably linger outside the tribe every day as the former leader of the Black Jackal tribe.

Hi had clearly suffered greatly from them in the past and now mentioning these hyenas his tone was filled with gritted teeth noted clearly agreeing with their statements.

It seemed too difficult to make these greedy creatures retreat.

A fight was unavoidable.

With this thought in mind, Lu G organized his thoughts and spoke up.

Everyone keep moving forward and act according to my instructions as you walk.

After pausing for two seconds, Lu G continued.

The slingers at the back move to the front of the team.

Then Hi and Lu Yong, you two move to the back.

After we start fighting, the four warriors will be responsible for protecting the slinger safety while the others will spread out to cover Luo Yong and Hchi during the battle.

If you understand, then let us move.

Chapter 81.

The ancient rogues really are rogues.

The battle was about to break out.

With his back to the hyena pack, the black jackal who had already retreated to the back of the team.

suddenly exerted force in his left arm, and the corpse of a starving wolf that he had shouldered was thrown towards the hyena group behind him.

The sudden action of the black jackal clearly alerted the hyenas behind.

But for the hungry hyenas, the flying food was simply too tempting, and coupled with the constant stimulation of blood, their dark eyes were uncontrollably drawn to the corpse of the starving wolf.

At that moment, the black jackal moved with an explosive force.

He instantly propelled his speed to its peak, resembling a cheetah, pouncing on its prey.

He charged into the midst of the hyena pack.

The spearhead of his axe pierced through the air quickly, creating a sharp whistling sound.

And then, with a chilling crunch, it sank into the abdomen of one hyena.

The feedback from the impact sent an unprecedented exhilaration through the black jackal.

He was absolutely in love with this new axe he had just crafted.

Although the handle's insufficient strength had not been perfectly resolved.

The blade and spearhead had been carefully polished by the armory.

And in terms of lethality, it definitely exceeded his previous weapon.

Originally, the Black Jackal had planned to make good use of this axe.

But after last night's battle, Luog's brilliant wolf driving strategy had left him with no room to showcase his skills, leaving him feeling quite frustrated.

Now he could take out his pen-up emotions on this annoying pack of hyenas.

After landing a hit, the black jackal did not stop.

He continued to exert force with both arms, swinging the ax to the side.

Suddenly, there was a sound of flesh tearing and with splattering blood.

The abdomen of that hyena was ripped open, its liver and intestines hanging down.
