Fantasy Simulator Chapter 319 The Use of the Clone

Even though they had decided to relocate, their goal was just to avoid that Beastman tribe.
Since they had achieved their goal, there was no need to continue onwards.
However, before that, Chen Heng wanted to send some Kobolds to scout out the surroundings and find out about any possible dangers.
From the situation just then, it seemed that there were also Beastmen in this region.
However, they were not a tribe and just scattered Beastmen.
Now, they needed to decide on a specific place to settle down in.
Based on Kobold habits, they normally resided near mountains.
Even though Kobolds' bodies were not big, they were very talented in digging and mining.
As such, they normally chose to create dens near mountains.
However, Chen Heng did not make such a decision.
In terms of safety, residing near a mountain would not have been bad, but in terms of becoming stronger, that would not be great.
No matter what race it was, any race needed agriculture to become stronger.
Hunting was very limited in terms of how many people it could support.
As such, if the Kobolds were to become stronger and support a greater population, they needed to move away from the hunting and gathering path and begin to raise crops.
Only by doing this could they support a greater population, which would allow them to develop their civilization.
After all, only with enough food could people branch to other occupations.
Under the traditional hunting and gathering model, everyone had to struggle just to live, and everyone spent all of their time trying to find food.
Under such a model, it was impossible to support other occupations.
As such, from a long-term point of view, agriculture was incredibly important.
However, expanding into agriculture required some conditions to be fulfilled: flat, fertile soil and a source of water.
Places near mountains were not very suitable for agriculture, so Chen Heng did not follow Kobold tradition and instead found a different place.
It was near a plains with many streams nearby, which could be used for irrigation as well as fish farming.
The environment was quite good.
However, the only downside was that this place was already occupied by others.
It was a Beastman tribe.
However, this Beastman tribe could not compare to the one that had attacked the Kobold tribe.
They had only around 100 Beastmen, and it was a small tribe.
Chen Heng's expression was calm as he thought to himself.
He found another place and waited for an opportunity as he gathered the scattered Kobolds in the surroundings.
During this period of time, because of many Kobolds joining, Chen Heng's tribe now had nearly 200 Kobolds.
Among them, there were 70 or so adult male Kobolds.
If Chen Heng decided to go all-out, he and the 70 or so adult male Kobolds would be able to deal with the 100 or so Beastmen.
However, despite this, Chen Heng did not immediately attack and instead sent out Hechi and the others to bring in more scattered Kobolds.
Kobolds had great vitality, and there were many of them living in the wilderness.
Usually, they were scattered and ignored by everyone else.
However, once they were gathered together, they could achieve a lot.
In just a few days, Chen Heng had gathered ten or so Kobolds, and they were all strong adults.
Because they had lived in the wilderness by themselves for a long time, their bodies were quite good and they could fight.
If Chen Heng was willing to wait, he would be able to take in even more.
However, they were at their limit.
On one hand, the Beastmen were not stupid. After such a large number of Kobolds appeared, they would definitely become wary.
Moreover, as the Kobold numbers increased, the amount of food they consumed would also increase.
If this went on, they would fall apart before they even fought.
As such, Chen Heng did not continue to wait and decided to act.
During a sudden attack, nearly 100 Kobolds rushed into the Beastman tribe.
Following this, a magic skill was unleashed.
The might of Mental Intimidation was once again displayed, after which Kobold warriors rushed in and began to fight and kill.
There were indeed around 100 Beastmen, but this did not mean that they were all there.
After all, they sent people out to hunt and bring back prey.
As such, only about half of the Beastmen were in the camp.
Facing these numbers, the 100 Kobold warriors had no trouble, let alone Chen Heng.
Under the support of Chen Heng's magic skills, they easily cleared out this camp.
Beastmen howled and rushed up, but they were cut down by the Kobolds and fell to the ground as corpses.
A dense smell of blood spread out, and after the final Beastman fell, all of the Kobolds cheered.
Following this, they began to chant Chen Heng's name.
"Kalunu! Kalunu!"
Beside Chen Heng, Hechi beat his chest, looking incredibly valiant.
Just then, he had faced a Beastman and killed him.
For a Kobold to achieve this, it was indeed quite heroic.
However, it was nothing compared to Chen Heng.
Then again, there was no point in competing with Chen Heng—they were completely different.
After attaining victory, it was time to gather the spoils of war.
Compared to the previous fights, there were much more spoils of war in the Beastman tribe.
Chen Heng discovered many things, including gold coins, weapons, and equipment.
Those things were most likely from humans.
It seemed that humans had passed through this region, and their things had been plundered by these Beastmen.
This was quite common.
Whether they were Beastmen or Kobolds, they all plundered.
However, looking at the gold coins, Chen Heng's gaze became serious.
"The Oro Empire's gold coins…"
Playing with the gold coins in his hand, Chen Heng thought to himself.
In this world, every kingdom had its own currency.
What did it mean for the Oro Empire's gold coins to be here?
Did it mean that this place was relatively close to the Oro Empire?
If that was the case, did that mean he was not too far from his main body?
Thinking about it, Chen Heng felt that it was quite interesting.
The reason why Chen Heng chose the clone option was to test the simulator's new function.
However, he had never thought that his clone would not be too far from his main body.
This was quite a pleasant surprise.
If he could contact his main body, the resources that his main body had would be able to greatly help him.
In fact, could he use the clone to help his main body?
Many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind.
Thinking to there, he could not help but smile.
"Looks like this feature is quite good…"
Following this he walked out.
His main body and clone being in the same world was a very good piece of news to him.
However, even if he could use his main body's power to help him develop, he had no way of contacting his main body right now.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng shook his head and departed.
Elsewhere.
At the same time, within a quiet room, Chen Heng raised his head and looked into the distance.
"So it's like that…"
Sensing the memories in his mind, Chen Heng thought to himself.
During this period of time, he had discovered some things.
Because they were in the same world, some of the memories between his main body and clone were shared.
For example, through the hazy connection, Chen Heng could roughly sense the clone's situation, as well as some other things.
It seemed that the only way to fully share memories was to wait for the clone to come back.
However, he could indeed sense the clone's situation.
"A Kobold, he…" Chen Heng grinned, feeling quite amused, "How interesting…"
By now, he had gone through many simulations, but it was the first time he had spawned as an Outlander.
Even Chen Heng could not help but feel amused.
However, what Chen Heng cared most about was the hidden potential in this function.
It could allow him to create a separate clone in the World of Gods, which seemed very useful.
Whether his clone became stronger and controlled its own faction, or came to support his main body, it could be quite useful.
This was the case even for a Kobold clone.
Even though the Kobold clone's situation was quite difficult right now, if the Kobold could develop the tribe well and make it into a large faction, it would be quite useful to Chen Heng.
If this was the case even for a Kobold clone, then if Chen Heng could create a clone with a more powerful and prestigious background, it would be able to do even more.
This was quite a good thing for Chen Heng.
However, Chen Heng could not create a new clone right now.
After all, his soul was still incredibly weak.
Creating a clone was not just starting with a blank slate but required great investment from him.
Apart from Simulation Points, Chen Heng also had to split off part of his soul, and this greatly drained him.
Even after many months, Chen Heng's soul still had not fully recovered, and it was still quite weak.
As such, even though creating clones was quite good, it was impossible for Chen Heng for now.
If he forcefully split off any more of his soul, he would most likely cause irreversible damage to his soul.
Since that was the case, it was not worth it.
Following this, Chen Heng slowly walked out.
Because they were in the same world, as months had passed for the Kobold, months had also passed for him.
During those months, not much had changed on Chen Heng's side.
By now, news had come back from Ali and Marley.
Before, they had been commissioned by Chen Heng to go to the Sorcerer City Aimu to buy food and resources in exchange for magic items.
As promised, the first batch of food had already arrived.
Ali and Marley had personally escorted this load of goods so that nothing unexpected happened.
To Chen Heng, the two of them escorting the goods was undoubtedly good news.
"Dear friends…"
Within a large hall, Chen Heng looked at the two Sorcerers with a sincere smile, "We finally meet again…"
Ali and Marley were standing in front of him, looking quite different than last time.
They still wore the same Sorcerer robes, but there were many holes in them. They also looked incredibly wary as if they had gone through a long journey.
That was indeed the case.
From here to Aimu City was not a great distance, but the journey was quite dangerous.
The two Sorcerers had most likely gone through much on the way here.
Even though Ali and Marley seemed quite tired, they still forced smiles.
"Respected Viscount Aktor…" Marley spoke first, "According to our agreement…"
Hearing his words, Chen Heng smiled and nodded, "Of course, I still remember our agreement. Now that you've come, I am at ease."
He clapped his hands and a few attendants brought over some things before Ali and Marley.
They were the magic items that Chen Heng had promised to them.
Of course, they were all damaged goods, but even so, they were incredibly precious to the two Sorcerers.
Looking at the magic items in front of them, the two Sorcerers looked incredibly excited and delighted, and they seemed much less tired.
Looking at their reactions, Chen Heng smiled and once again clapped.
