Chapter 34: Friends from Afar
Regarding the Ogres under his command, Sakavi had no intention of equipping them with weapons and armor at all, and even organizing this legion was because there was no place to settle them.
For the past few years, they have been eating and drinking everywhere with Sakavi, one by one, fat and strong, and they are particularly capable of giving birth, once a year, four to six at a time. Although they don't do much work, their attitude is correct. Besides Kobolds, they are the ones who support Sakavi's rule the most, and he dare not suppress them.
Seeing that the great infrastructure construction in various places was almost completed, and there were not so many people needed to mine obsidian on the wilderness, Sakavi had a flash of inspiration and sent 100,000 strong men directly to the army, letting them ride giant wild boars and hold wooden sticks to continue to serve the great Grand Duke.
In order to coax them, Sakavi also specifically chose a very powerful name, Tusk Legion, implying that they are the tusks of the Grand Duke, the most deterrent armed force. The actual role is to provide experience for the Security Department to train troops later, and by the way, separate males and females, let them give birth less, Agrik's school area can't hold so many people.
300,000 Ogres were mobilized 100,000 strong men at once, and the entire Ogre tribe was empty for a moment. Sakavi directly ordered the remaining Ogres to build towns on the wilderness, gradually starting to move closer to other races.
The same is true for Goblins, Kobolds, and Murlocs. These races that can give birth are not very useful, and they cannot be castrated, because this will seriously hit their loyalty and is not conducive to unity. The safe and effective method is to move them to different places, arrange work, and meet less often, so they will give birth less.
In the gathering places of the new generation of Goblins and Ogres, the children who grow up will be very happy to go to school for further study. In this way, the future Sakavi will have a steady stream of various talents to serve.
Various tasks no longer need Sakavi to handle them personally. Sakavi decided to study magic in the coming time. His magic is too single and very easy to be restrained in battle.
But the trees want to be quiet but the wind does not stop. Perhaps other dragons have integrated their vassals during this period, or perhaps they saw that Sakavi was idle here, so they wanted to come and visit.
"Klaussuna, I finally found you, you made me look so hard!"
"? Do we know each other?"
"You actually said you don't know me, it makes me so sad."
"But I really don't know you! Have we met?"
"Of course not, but I have been missing the gold coins in your wallet for a long time, hahahahaha!"
"So you are here to rob, right?"
"You guessed it right, reward you with a big bad guy, okay?"
"......, so who exactly are you?"
"I am a little bad guy from Mischief Village, the one standing outside is a big bad guy."
"Kobrix, if you dare to scare a little girl again, I will twist your head off, believe it or not."
"Big sister, who are you?"
"I am Grand Duke Fidmina from the Rodemelian Continent, and this one next to you is Kobrix from the Modus Kingdom, he is a Copper Dragon."
"I don't believe it, there is no blue Copper Dragon, you must be lying to me."
"This kid painted blue paint specifically to play tricks on you."
"Klaussuna, you have to believe me, I am really a blue metallic dragon."
"Where did Sakavi go? Didn't they say that this place was already on the right track last year? Why didn't I see him."
"He is doing magic experiments, studying how to make hemiplegic skeletons move. He hasn't appeared for more than a year. It is said that he can occasionally jump and walk two steps."
"What magic experiment is he doing! Come on, Fidmina, let's call him to go to Wendisha's place to take advantage."
…………
"Sakavi, I heard that the bone frame you made can already cheat death, is it true?"
"That's right, it can also jump up and paint the dragon, do you want me to paint you bronze, I guarantee others can see at a glance that you are rusty."
"Hahahahahaha! Does Grovelian know that he is rusty?"
"So why didn't he come? Kobrix."
"He is at Wendisha's place. Seeing that you haven't appeared, Kobrix and I came to see what you are doing."
"So you often gather together?"
"It's boring to stay at home, my old father doesn't let me do this or that. Let's go, we came specifically to call you."
So Klaussuna and Sakavi followed these two friends from afar to Wendisha's territory in the north of Braidaso. It's good to go out and see if there have been any changes in the situation recently.
"Sakavi, you busy dragon, you finally willing to come out, it's not easy!"
"In the early stage of territory construction, I was not at ease with the vassals doing it themselves, so I had to stare at various things myself. How is your situation here, Wendisha."
"At least I can earn a few coins. I heard that your territory is losing money every year, how can you get poorer the more you toss?"
"Rumor! Absolutely rumor! My territory started making money last year, and income should rise this year."
"You lost money for ten years after grabbing territory, I'm afraid it will make dragons laugh their teeth off. Learn from me, Wendisha, if you have nothing to do, collect some protection fees. If anyone under you wants it, sell it directly for money. Now everyone is short of people, and slave traders are almost busy crazy."
"Is the Luo Sen Empire still not getting better?"
"More than that! It's just getting more and more chaotic. The Gnolls on the Loka Plain dare to attack the regional governor's mansion, and there is not even a shadow of a merchant here."
"So you are not just here for afternoon tea this time, right? Are you planning to intervene in the situation of the Luo Sen Empire?"
"That's right, Sakavi. My father's meaning is that our Modus Kingdom will take the lead, and we will jointly enter Skull-Crushing City in the name of suppressing bandits, and abolish that idiot Gruen. The Black Forest and the church said that the impact is bad and it is not convenient to come forward, so this dirty work can only be done by us."
"Oh? So you plan to kill Gruen directly? What is the attitude within the Luo Sen Empire about this?"
"According to the reports from my vassal eyes in Luo Sen, the army there can't be mobilized anymore. Sakavi, the main ones to do it this time are me, Fidmina, and you, and Grovelian is responsible for tricking Gruen out of the city."
"Wendisha, I still need my vassals to confirm this information of yours. Who do you plan to recommend to succeed the throne of the Luo Sen Empire?"
"Samokoro Obsidian, this old general has high prestige in the army. If you don't have a suitable candidate, we plan to recommend this person."
"I can't give you an answer now, I have to wait until the information provided by my vassals arrives before I can judge."
"Alright everyone, the business ends here, now it's entertainment time! Next, I, the rusty Copper Dragon, Kobrix, will host the competition items."
"Everyone, please look at the giant throwing spears here. Each dragon must take one and pass through the various obstacles in front, and then throw this throwing spear into the giant throwing pot at the specified height. The one with the worst performance must take out a throwing spear made of gold and give it to the champion as a prize. Alright, who comes first?"
Wendisha said: "Klaussuna, you are the youngest here, you go first!"
"But I don't have money! Such a throwing spear that is thicker than a Goblin is not cheap."
"Grovelian: "Put it on Sakavi's head, he doesn't lack this little money. Go quickly, remember to be careful, there are several obstacles to pass in front, don't touch your head."
The throwing pot competition is a very popular activity among dragons. It is said that this competition has existed for thousands of years. The throwing spear champion has always been the pursuit of dragons."
"Next, I, the faded blue Copper Dragon, will broadcast live for everyone. Competition rules: Participating dragons need to fly along the specified track within a limited time, pass through a series of obstacles, and throw their special "arrows" into the giant target pot at the end of the track while moving. The one who hits and does not violate the rules wins."
"Now appearing is our great beauty Klaussuna! She didn't rush to charge, she was observing... perfect patience! She moved! A light sideways, like dancing a death ballet, only using the finest adjustments of the wingtips, she slipped through the most dangerous gap between the two vortexes, unscathed! Superb control! Beautiful, too perfect! Where is everyone's applause?"
"Oh, she has entered the Blade Canyon! Listen, this is the wind roaring, it is the Harpies screaming! The Black Dragon lady is trying to use her talent for controlling lightning to forcibly stabilize the fuselage... but the turbulence is too strong! She was blown off course and had to waste precious time to readjust! Oh, her tail touched the cliff, which will affect her score."
"Next is the 'Living Dense Forest' presented to us by the Minotaur Shaman! The moving obsidian giant pillars are like awakened ancient giants! Klaussuna is approaching! Her flight trajectory has become incomparably strange, as if weaving an aerial spider web. Every time she flaps her wings, every time she swings her tail, she avoids the movement trajectory of the stone pillars just right."
"She even used the rise of a stone pillar as a pedal to complete a short glide close to the ground! The Minotaurs on the wilderness sent out sky-shaking war cries for her! But it's a pity that the rules say you can't touch the stone pillars, this will be deducted."
"The 'Spider Web Thunder Domain' that tests patience and fine operation the most! The beautiful lady is too cautious, her speed slowed down... not good! Her tail tip touched an arcane ball! Triggered a chain explosion! Although she used body-protecting lightning to block the damage, the scene was very embarrassed, this will definitely be deducted!"
"Approaching, the lady is already approaching that huge black throwing pot. Her throw is elegant and precise... hit! Right in the center of the pot! Perfect arc! Perfect power! The obsidian arrow made a heavy muffled sound in the pot, as if beating a war drum for the lady's victory!"
…………
"The next game is 'Crushing the Castle', gameplay: use giant stones and wood to build a miniature castle model. Dragons take turns using their tails to sweep, using their bodies to crush, to see who can flatten it completely with the most dashing posture. This is pure power venting, full of pleasure. There are three rounds of competition in total, and the one with the lowest score in each round must be responsible for building the castle."
"'True and False Treasure' appreciation meeting gameplay: Each dragon brings a collection they are most proud of (or a carefully crafted fake). Everyone takes turns to appreciate, comment, and guess its authenticity and origin. This not only tests the eyes, but also shows off their knowledge and looting history."
"Prize: The one recognized as the most inferior fake, its owner must destroy it on the spot; and the one rated as the most exquisite and legendary true product, its owner will receive a 'praise gift' from all participants."
"After three consecutive competitions, it's time for the relaxation session. Wendisha has prepared hot springs and pastries. Everyone can soak in the bath while drinking afternoon tea. Boasting about their glorious moments in the past." ===== CHAPTER 35 =====
