Chapter 168

Trembling with fear, he walked forward.

He picked up the book and the weapon.

He was surprised to find that the text in the book was in a language he could understand.

On the first page.

The four large characters "Book of Civilization" were written impressively.

And the other weapon...

Was sharper than all the ice thorns.

Those top-tier ice thorns collapsed at the slightest touch in front of it.

"Could it be a gift from the gods?"

Han looked at the sky blankly, and after scanning around to no avail.

He reacted.

His expression was a bit excited.

His breathing also became rapid.

With this weapon...

He finally saw the hope of revenge.

Soon.

Excited, he took the divine book and the divine artifact back to his home ice cave.

In the ice cave.

He began to practice the techniques of using the divine artifact hard, while studying the divine book.

Regarding the knowledge in the divine book.

Han learned very quickly.

One year later.

Relying on his astonishing intelligence.

Han studied all the civilization methods in the divine book, such as politics, economy, military, agriculture, animal husbandry, and city-states.

"The divine book says there is a political system called an empire, which is superior to a loose alliance, but it requires imposing individual will upon the group."

"In addition, economically, the ice coins we use now are also very crude..."

"In agriculture and animal husbandry, we are just simply farming, and the methods are extremely backward."

"Building large city-states can exert the power of civilization to a greater extent..."

"The prerequisite for achieving all this is to constantly conquer and constantly unify!"

After reading the Book of Civilization.

Han's ambition grew even more vigorous.

His ambition was no longer satisfied with destroying the neighboring Bailan Tribe.

He wanted to conquer all tribes.

As the "Book of Civilization" said, to build an unprecedented great empire!

It's just that...

With the current strength of the Baihan Tribe, it was simply not enough to complete the great cause of conquest.

"I must find a way to forge divine artifacts; relying on divine artifacts, the Baihan Tribe can continue to grow."

Eight-year-old Han quickly found the right direction.

He began to study the divine artifact, which was an iron knife.

But...

In the southern hemisphere of Venus.

Glaciers were everywhere, covering several feet thick.

It was extremely difficult to find the existence of iron ore.

Ten years later.

Han was eighteen.

After ten years, he finally discovered the existence of iron ore in an area where the ice layer was thin.

But at the same time.

The temperature in the northern hemisphere was extremely low, and smelting also became a serious problem.

Helpless.

Eighteen-year-old Han...

Chose to leave the tribe and go out to travel.

He heard that in the distant south, there were no glaciers, and the land was scorching everywhere.

There...

It would definitely be able to help him successfully smelt divine artifacts!

So.

He began to head south, traveling continuously on Venus.

While traveling, he recorded the information of other tribes.

Drawing maps to prepare for his future conquest of the world.

Above Venus.

Qin Mu followed Han the whole time and couldn't help but show appreciation.

As expected of the smartest one among all silicon-based life forms.

Being so young, he thought so far ahead.

Only...

Qin Mu looked slightly to the north.

Not long after Han left, the Baihan Tribe and the Bailan Tribe had another conflict.

The Baihan Tribe...

Was directly exterminated.

And the joint council turned a blind eye to this matter.

After all, the Baihan Tribe was just a small tribe with only a few thousand people.

On Venus.

Although there were no large-scale wars because of the existence of the joint council.

Occasional conflicts happened from time to time.

Those very small tribes...

Were often exterminated.

However...

Han did not know all this.

At eighteen, he put on his backpack and began to travel all over Venus.

From the extreme cold land in the north to the extreme hot land in the south.

He traveled and observed thousands of tribes of various sizes.

He recorded all their information.

His tracks along the way were also drawn into a map.

At the same time, he drew all the surrounding mountains and terrain.

Because the military volume of the divine book said...

Adapt to local conditions, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will be invincible in a hundred battles.

And in the process of traveling.

He finally found that exposed reddish iron ore in the southern hemisphere.

As long as the appropriate smelting method was used...

Divine artifacts could be manufactured.

But except for him...

No one in the world discovered the value of this iron ore.

So.

He decided to start from scratch in the southern hemisphere, using divine artifacts to recruit followers and build his own power.

Secretly mining and secretly smelting divine artifacts.

Expanding his power.

Time flew by.

One hundred years passed in a blink of an eye.

Han in the southern hemisphere.

Relying on divine artifacts and wisdom, he formed the 1,000-strong Han Iron Army.

Each of them wore iron-silver-white armor, held iron weapons, and usually practiced military formation methods.

Their combat power was astonishing.

"It's time to go back."

Han, who had been away from home for a hundred years, finally remembered the Baihan Tribe.

He decided to take the Han Iron Army across the northern and southern hemispheres and return to the tribe.

Over these hundred years.

He had also completed what he had always wanted to complete.

He had traveled to various tribes of all sizes.

He had a clear understanding of the combat power of those tribes.

Those large tribes had populations of hundreds of thousands.

While small tribes ranged from thousands to tens of thousands.

However, in terms of combat power alone...

He felt.

Even a large tribe could not be an opponent of his 1,000-strong Han Iron Army!

This 1,000-strong Han Iron Army...

Was his capital for standing firm.

He was confident that with the 1,000-strong Han Iron Army, he could lead the tribe to grow!

However.

When Han rushed back to the tribe.

What he saw was a ruin.

The ice cave collapsed, and it was desolate.

There were no traces of anyone living there.

Han was a little terrified and ordered people to search in a hurry.

At first, he thought the tribe had migrated.

Silicon-based life forms had long lifespans, usually reaching 1,000 years.

A hundred years had passed, and tribes migrating due to food problems...

Was something that happened often.

But not long after...

The Han Iron Army under his command found the truth.

"It was actually done by the Bailan Tribe?"

Han gripped the divine artifact tightly, his eyes revealing bone-chilling coldness.

First, they killed his parents.

Then they destroyed his tribe.

At this moment.

The hatred in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

He roared: "Everyone, follow me to besiege the Bailan Tribe!"

Soon.

He wore iron armor and held an iron knife.

Leading the 1,000-strong Han Iron Army, he killed his way to the Bailan Tribe.

The strength of the Bailan Tribe...

Compared to a hundred years ago, had not changed much.

It was a small tribe of tens of thousands of people.

When Han led the Han Iron Army into the territory of the Bailan Tribe.

The Bailan Tribe resisted, picking up ice thorns and other weapons, trying to block the pace of the Han Iron Army.

But...

In the face of a huge equipment gap, the Bailan Tribe had no power to resist.

They were slaughtered crazily.

Screams and wails echoed continuously on the ice field.

But Han was as hard as iron.

Under the new and old hatred, he had no mercy at all.

Instead, he gave a death order: "Cut the weeds and dig up the roots, leave no one alive!"

This 1,000-strong Han Iron Army.

Was trained by him according to the military training methods in the divine book.

They obeyed orders and prohibitions.

Their quality was extremely high.

When fighting, they operated military formations and were invincible.

They were all clad in iron armor.

Even the hardest ice thorns could not pierce their defense.

And their iron knives could easily slaughter the people of the Bailan Tribe.

Half a day later.

The Bailan Tribe of tens of thousands of people...

Was slaughtered clean.

Not a single person survived!

In the ruins, it was crimson.

The smell of blood permeated everywhere.

Seeing this scene.

Han knelt on one knee, and the hatred surging in his heart slowly calmed down.

For a long time.

He slowly stood up and said to the Han Iron Army beside him: "Seize the supplies of the Bailan Tribe and prepare to build a city-state."

He intended to follow the instructions of the divine book.

To rebuild a brand-new Baihan Tribe!

Not long after.

The news that Han destroyed the Bailan Tribe reached the joint council.

The joint council was an ancient organization that had lasted for hundreds of millions of years.

Distributed all over Venus.

The main power...
