Eye System

It was a good test for Lex's skill and although he was suffering quite a few powerful blows and was being quite heavily injured, the longer the battle went on, the more attacks he was able to dodge and block.

"Listen clearly. Your leader will die here and all of you can follow suit, or you can all pledge loyalty to me. If you do not pledge loyalty to me, your deaths are inevitable," announced Lex.

As he did so, 5 clones of Lex dashed towards him and the 6 identical figures all struck the bandit tribe leader at the same time from all different locations.

It was clear to Lex that in the few minutes that he would have to hold back the bandit leader until his life force ran out, he could be killed by the extreme power of the bandit leader.

However, he was also unwilling to destroy his clones as they were important for the safety of the fox beast units and the innocents in the tribe, so instead, he teleported them all to the area beside him.

That would give him the chance to surprise attack the bandit tribe leader without disposing of his clones, and then he could send them all back to where they were previously.

With 6 powerful figures attacking him at once from all different directions, there was nothing the bandit tribe leader could do.

He tried to defend against the joint attack, however; he was struck down and his life force was running low anyway, so his death was unavoidable.

In truth, Lex desired to start a massacre and kill all the disgusting bandits within that tribe and all the other bandit tribes on the island, but Lex knew that it would merely bring more trouble to the innocents and defenceless.

If he did that, the other nearby islands would seize the opportunity to attempt to take over the island and large wars and conflicts between islands would begin, and there would be a lot of collateral damage.

Instead, Lex was planning to forcefully bind the loyalty of all the bandits to a totem that he purchased through the system and was planning to leave it behind to a single trusted, capable and talented individual.

Staying on the island wasn't something that Lex was planning on doing, but he also didn't want to leave before setting up a safe and developing environment for everyone on it.

As long as he was able to do as he planned, other islands would soon follow suit and be taken over by the leader that Lex was planning on putting in place.

The only issue is, he was yet to find any of them that were capable and trustworthy enough.

Once one had power in their hands, human arrogance and desires usually take over and by handing over the control of so many powerful bandits to an evil individual, Lex could be causing an even worse situation for the citizens of the islands.

Finding someone that had the right character for leadership, but was also just and valued all people's lives would be hard, but good people could be found everywhere.

All he needed to do was look.

"Now that your leader has been taken down before you. What do you choose? Die or submit?" 

Lex's voice resounded throughout the tribe as he activated his Dominant Eye and spread its power as fast as he could, not wanting to waste any time.

The other tribes needed to be taken down and forced to submit and once Lex had gotten all the information he needed, along with any resources or items that intrigued him, and also chose a leader, he could leave the island with his companions.

It didn't take long for all the bandits to submit after Lex gathered all his fox beasts and stood before them with his clones, intimidating them all with his aura and Dominant Eye.

Then after binding all of their loyalties of the bandits within the tribe to the totem, the stage was set for Lex to begin his plans, and Ella accompanied him, while Angela returned to the Portable Sub-Dimension to cultivate.

She felt that her power wasn't enough, even after unleashing the powerful Explosive Ice Orb, and also felt that she was on the verge of improving, while she also knew that Lex wouldn't need her help, so she diligently cultivated without stopping.

Within the matter of a week, Lex had taken over all the bandit tribes using his own power, the fox beast army and the bandits who he had bound to the totem. 

All the powerful bandits on the island, including the other bandit tribe leaders, had all been bound to the totem that Lex casually played with in his hand.

The totem was bound to him, so even if someone managed to steal it from him, which is impossible, only he could use and control it.

All that was left for him was to find a suitable leader since the island had been completely taken over by him, but Lex was yet to do so and it seemed as though all the bandits were cruel, and all the slaves and normal people on the island didn't have the will to stand strong.

He had come across quite a lot of resources that were useful for him and his companions and ones that he had ever come across in the treasuries of the bandit tribes, but other than that, Lex didn't take much resources.

He didn't want to leave the island weak and incapable of developing, as that would merely set them as a target to be destroyed and taken over by other islands.

Lex also had a ship ready for his departure, which was previously shared by the bandit tribes and the only one of its kind that allowed them to travel to the closest continent relatively safely.

However, he didn't want to leave yet.

"Is there really not a strong, just and talented individual on this entire island"
