I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

“Yes, Stone Armoured Crocodile Hide is very hard, it’s almost impossible to break through.”

Shan Qiu continued in a solemn tone, “If used to forge the sword you designed, Shaman, I think that would be the best material to use.”

“If that’s the case, why hasn’t anyone hunted Stone Armoured Crocodiles to make swords?” Su Bai curiously asked.

He recalled that he had wanted to kill some Stone Armoured Crocodiles to eat before, not realising that these Stone Armoured Crocodiles could be so useful now.

“Stone Armoured Crocodiles are very fierce. It is simply impossible to hunt them. Back when we were in the Ancestral Land, the Old Shaman had also considered hunting a few Stone Armoured Crocodiles to make tools out of them.” Shan Qiu solemnly said.

Su Bai nodded thoughtfully and asked, “How many swords can be made from one Stone Armoured Crocodile?”

If only one sword could be made from a Stone Armoured Crocodile, then it would not be worth the risk of hunting them. It would be a waste of time and very dangerous.

“One Stone Armoured Crocodile can make about three of the swords you’ve designed.” Shan Qiu analysed.

“That number is acceptable. If one Stone Armoured Crocodile can make three sturdy Tang Swords, it’s worth the risk.” Su Bai started planning.

“Shaman, why do you suddenly want to forge this kind of sword?” Shan Qiu was still curious about this point.

Su Bai took a sip of water and explained, “We will soon go to reclaim the place that belongs to us. Naturally, weapons are the most important thing to us now.”

Shan Qiu did not seem too surprised. Instead, he looked regretful. He had already known about the Shaman’s plan to reclaim the Ancestral Land. He was regretful that he could not be of help, and his tone was one of dejection: “I understand.”

“Don’t think you can’t help the Tribe. As long as you can forge the Tang Swords, you’re already providing us with a lot of assistance.” Su Bai had clearly seen through Shan Qiu’s thoughts.

Shan Qiu’s gloomy mood instantly cleared up, and he immediately became serious. He stated with vigour, “Shaman, I will definitely forge this… this Tang Sword.”

“How long does it take to forge one?” Su Bai still needed to clarify the time it would take to forge them.

Shan Qiu looked at the Wolf Tail Grass Paper again carefully, almost putting it right in front of his eyes.

He observed for quite a while, then held up one finger and solemnly said, “One day for one sword, but that’s assuming we have sufficient materials.”

“One sword per day?” Although this time was relatively short, time was pressing now. Mass production was not possible. Su Bai frowned and continued, “Then, take a look at the others. There’s also a spear and a greatsword. Are there any other materials that can replace stone?”

The spears in the Tribe were currently just sticks with a sharp stone tied to the end with vines. These weapons were just for show; they were practically useless in a real fight.

Apart from that, the Tribe did not have any other presentable weapons. Most were either clumsy stone knives or Beast Bone Clubs.

The Beast Bone Clubs had not undergone much modification, they were just single large bones. Those who were particular would tie some sharp stone fragments to the end of the bone, making the Beast Bone look a bit more lethal.

“The tip of the spear can be replaced with Beast Bone, which would make it more lethal.” Shan Qiu paused, pondering. “As for the greatsword, it might only be suitable for Totem Warriors to use.”

“Your thoughts are the same as mine. The greatsword is for Strength Type Totem Warriors, while the spears and Tang Swords can be given to Warrior Trainees or agile Totem Warriors.” Su Bai analysed.

“The Shaman’s analysis is correct. The greatsword can’t be replaced with anything else, it can only be made of stone.” Shan Qiu explained.

“Okay. We have an idea now. Right now, make the spears and greatswords according to your ideas. As for the Tang Swords, I’ll have someone hunt down the Stone Armoured Crocodiles.” Su Bai instructed.

Shan Qiu was stunned, thinking the Shaman had given up on the Tang Sword idea. He exclaimed in shock, “Shaman, Stone Armoured Crocodiles are very difficult to kill.”

“Don’t worry, I have a way. You start making the spears and greatswords first, make as many as you can.” Su Bai solemnly said.

“Alright, I’ll head off to work.” Shan Qiu’s enthusiasm was ignited again. Since he could not be at the forefront, he would help make weapons for those who could!

“En,” Su Bai gave a small nod.

Looking at the swaying door flap, he began to ponder ways to kill those Stone Armoured Crocodiles. He was determined to get their hide now.

“Xiao Yu, go call Cang Shi.” Su Bai said.

“Okay.” Yu Ying ran out of the Teepee without delay. She did not quite understand the previous conversation, only knowing to help call those requested as quickly as possible.

Ten minutes later, Cang Shi returned to the Teepee with the fox eared girl. On the way, he had asked the fox eared girl, but the answers he got were all fragmented.

Cang Shi lifted the Teepee’s door flap and nervously asked, “Shaman, do you have urgent business with me?”

“It’s not exactly urgent, but this is something only you can accomplish.” Su Bai said in a heavy tone.

Cang Shi stood up straight, blinking his purple eyes, and said, “Shaman, please give me your instructions.”

“I want you to help me hunt down a few Stone Armoured Crocodiles.” Su Bai said word by word.

“Hunt down… Stone Armoured Crocodiles?” Cang Shi doubted his ears and continued to ask, “Shaman, did you say Stone Armoured Crocodiles?”

“That’s right, Stone Armoured Crocodiles. The quantity I need isn’t small, not just one or two.” Su Bai repeated his words.

Cang Shi came to his senses and nodded, saying. “Shaman, Stone Armoured Crocodiles are very fierce. We have no way to kill them right now.”

Back in the Ancestral Land, the Old Shaman had also mentioned this idea. Even if they took Shaman Bone Tablets with them, they were not confident they could kill them.

“I know Stone Armoured Crocodiles are fierce. Of course, I’m not asking you to kill them barehanded,” Su Bai said with a slight smile.

“Shaman, then how do we hunt them? Even with Shaman Bone Tablets, we’re not confident we can defeat one. The main problem is that Stone Armoured Crocodiles always move together,” Cang Shi could handle a one-on-one fight with a Stone Armoured Crocodile. But the problem was that Stone Armoured Crocodiles do not act alone. They almost always appear in groups, which was too much to handle.
