Development

When he thought of this, Su Ming nodded.

Then, he spoke directly to Teda.

“You, go and call the other Elven Hunters over.”

Hearing this, Teda tilted his head with a touch of doubt in his eyes, but he did not say anything.

He bowed toward Su Ming respectfully, then turned around to carry out Su Ming’s orders.

In the eyes of the Elf Hunters, Su Ming’s orders were like golden rules.

No matter how strange his words sounded, they would still choose to listen.

About half an hour later, Teda had gathered all the Elven Hunters.

He looked at the Elven Hunters, who remained silent and waited for him to speak despite their doubtful faces.

Su Ming fell into a moment of silence, then looked at the Elf Hunters before him and spoke.

“I’m going to give you a mission. It’s related to the safety of the Elf Clan.

“And in the current Elf Clan, only you, the Elf Hunters, can complete this mission.

“However, at the same time, this mission is also accompanied by a huge crisis, so...are you willing to go?”

Once Su Ming finished speaking, he did not continue speaking. Instead, he waited for the Elf Hunters’ answers.

The group of Elven Hunters looked at each other at first, but after they came to their senses, they all looked a little excited.

“Of course we are, great prophet. We’ve been training so hard so that we can one day contribute to the Elf Clan.”

“Yes, great prophet. We can definitely complete the task you gave us!”

“Great prophet, please give us your orders!”

The Elven Hunters before him had excited expressions on their faces as they waited for Su Ming’s next words.

When Su Ming saw this, he nodded.

“I think you should have heard the news from last night.”

“A small team of Ghouls has appeared near our tribe. We have to investigate this Ghoul squad’s background and the situation within their tribe.”

“So, I need you to spread out in the forest and find the traces of the Ghoul tribe as soon as possible. Investigate the specific situation.”

When they heard Su Ming’s words, they naturally had no reason to object.

Then, Su Ming had the Elf Hunters spread out in small teams of three in the forest to search for traces of the Ghoul tribe.

During that time, Su Ming returned to the Elf Clan and chatted with Zelda.

In order to complete the SSS-rank mission of Elf Clan, the favorability of Zelda the commander was very important.

That was why during the past few days, Su Ming would look for Zelda whenever he was not busy with his work. He would talk to her about the crisis the Elf Clan was facing and their future development.

During this process, Su Ming would inadvertently reveal some of the key points he had seen in his previous life regarding the future development of the Elf Clan.

Zelda’s favorability toward him naturally rose during this process.

Just as the two of them were talking about the future development of the Elven race, the Elven Hunters finally responded.

They seemed to have found the Ghoul tribe.

Moreover, a few of the Elven Hunters had even controlled owls to sneak in and check out the situation.

When he heard this news, Su Ming could no longer sit still.

The Ghoul tribe was a tribe after all, and even the Goblin tribe had resources like the Spring of Life and gold.

Su Ming did not believe that a Ghoul tribe would not have any resources at all.

As he thought about it, Su Ming bade Zelda farewell and went to base no. 2 so that he could hear the news as soon as possible.

About half an hour later, the second message... Or rather, the second person who delivered the message arrived at the second base.

It was the panting Teda.

Once he was right in front of Su Ming, he took a deep breath and allowed his breathing to return to its normal state. Only then did he speak in a slightly excited manner.

“Great prophet, we’ve almost finished investigating the situation inside the Ghoul tribe.”

When Su Ming saw him like this, he calmed down quite a bit. Once he told Teda to calm down, he said, “What’s the situation inside?”

Teda’s eyes lit up.

“There are two gold mines in the Ghoul tribe, and each of them is no smaller than the one in the Goblin tribe.

“In addition, the Ghoul tribe also has a large amount of high-quality wood.”

Teda clearly understood what these things meant to the Elf Clan, which was in urgent need of development.

However, even though Su Ming felt happy when he heard those words, he did not get too excited. Instead, he frowned slightly.

“What about the Ghoul tribe’s forces?”

Teda was stunned at first, then he quickly said, “A lot of them!”

“Many, many! There are a lot of Ghouls in the Ghoul tribe, and their numbers are about twice that of our Elf Clan!”

When he heard that, Su Ming immediately rubbed the center of his brows.

If what had just happened was good news, then what was happening now was undeniably bad news.

With twice the number of Ghouls in the Elf Clan, the combat power of the Ghoul tribe would definitely be extremely terrifying.

It was unrealistic for the current Elf Clan to confront it head-on.

However, it would be too difficult for Su Ming to give up on the opportunity and resources right before his eyes.

As he thought about it, Su Ming felt conflicted.

But in the end, he did not hesitate for too long and quickly made a decision.

He still had to do this.

It would be a pity to miss out on these resources in the Ghoul tribe in the early stage of the Elf Clan’s development.

After all, if they could have these resources, the Elf Clan’s development speed could definitely be described as rapid.

Therefore, he had to fight for the resources of the Ghoul tribe.

At the moment, there was only one way for him to have the ability to fight against the Ghoul tribe.

It was to use all the resources at hand to improve the combat power of the Elven Warriors.

Also, he had to develop his own technology so that the combat power he could control would increase rapidly.

After all these were stacked together, it would be a sure thing to launch a general attack on the Ghoul tribe.

As he thought about it, Su Ming looked at the Teda before him and said, “In the following period of time, keep an eye on the Ghoul tribe.”

“Once you notice anything unusual, come and tell me immediately!”
