For the pursuit of divine power, this is a unique instinct.
In this world, not to mention ordinary mortals, even the high gods are still fighting for divine power.
The fundamental reason why the gods had disputes and even battles broke out was to gain believers.
And what is the purpose of gaining believers
It's not for gaining faith and extracting divine power.
Even high-ranking gods are chasing like this, let alone ordinary mortals.
For the pursuit of divine power, this is the instinct of life.
Therefore, Karunu didn't feel any doubt about the reaction of the old man in front of him, but just smiled.
After a while, he sent the old man in front of him away, then returned to his office, and picked up the battle report by himself.
He looked around and frowned involuntarily.
At this moment, more than a year has passed since Tilin came here.
Over the past year or so, with the expansion of the power of the kobold tribe, the traces of centaurs have become more and more clear, appearing from time to time.
Therefore, the battle between the kobold tribe and the centaur became more and more fierce.
From time to time, a battle would break out between the two, and they would fight on the battlefield, causing both of them to suffer heavy casualties.
Of course, for the time being, the centaur's main energy has not been shifted, and they have not noticed the kobold tribe in the south.
According to the investigation by Karunu, it seems that in the northern region, the centaurs themselves also have disputes with other races around them, and ordinary people are at war.
For centaurs, this seems to be a very normal thing.
After all, judging from their previous behavior, they themselves are not good neighbors, and it is quite normal for them to argue with their neighbors.
As far as Karunu knows so far, in the north of the centaur tribe, there are two huge forces, the tauren and the wild boar.
The strength of these two races is also not weak, each occupying a large area, fighting with the centaur, and killing many of each other's people.
It is precisely because of the existence of these two races that most of the power of the centaurs is restrained, so that they have no time to come to the south and start a full-scale fight with the kobold tribe.
Of course, on the other hand, if they really came to the kobold tribe, they might not be able to please them.
In order to deal with this group of centaurs, Karunu has made a lot of preparations.
In many key places, he sent people to build simple city walls and defensive facilities.
With the aid of things like cement, building these buildings is nothing to Karunu.
After all, his kobolds are not human.
If it is a human lord, it is not so easy to command his subjects, and it will cause chaos if he is not careful.
But Caroline is different.
Compared with humans, at least at this stage, these kobolds under Karunu are much more obedient, and as long as they have a full mouthful, they will work hard without complaint, and there will be no problems at all.
Equivalent to free labor.
And there are still many of these labors.
Even if it is not enough, Karunu can send people at any time to go to the desert to catch a large number.
Anyway, in the entire desert, there may not be many others, but the number of kobolds is definitely a lot.
Under such circumstances, as long as there is no shortage of food, labor is absolutely sufficient.
A large number of defensive facilities have been built, even if those centaurs come, I am afraid there is nothing they can do.
After all, their ability in field battles may be extremely powerful, but no matter what, can they still attack the city
Their lower body is still the body of a horse.
Due to the limitations of the innate structure, it is very easy for centaurs to move freely in the wild, but it is not conducive to their performance in siege battles.
Therefore, if they dare to take the initiative to attack, they will probably waste their energy in vain.
Of course, it is also not easy for the kobolds to defeat these centaurs.
Under the same conditions, the mobility of this group of centaurs is too strong.
Even if the Kobold's army is stronger than them, there is no way to catch up with them.
This is a very serious problem.
In order to solve this problem, Karunu has thought of many ways during this period of time.
After processing the documents in his hand, Karunu got up from the spot and walked outside.
He moved forward all the way, walked directly to the front, and came to a hidden place.
The place in front of him is none other than Karunu's laboratory in the city.
Compared with the past, the place in front of me looks much more spacious and gorgeous at the moment, and there are even many assistants among them, helping out in this place.
Some high-precision instruments were also sent over and placed in this place.
But at this moment, a horrifying scene is beginning to happen.
In front of them, on a piece of flat ground, a large group of kobold corpses were displayed there, lying there quietly at the moment, the number seemed huge.
Just by looking at it at a glance, it is estimated that there will be thousands of them.
Most of these Kobold corpses were killed in battle, and only a few died of illness or died of illness.
But at this moment, they were all lying here quietly, falling into an eternal deep sleep.
This is also the order Karunu gave before.
From very early on, Karunu gave orders.
After all kobolds die, their corpses must be recovered uniformly and placed in a specific area for preservation.
The purpose is to facilitate handling, so that Karunu can directly do it to recover the source of life in it.
It's normal at the moment.
Standing in place, looking at the kobold corpses in front of him, Karunu took a deep breath, then took a step forward and slowly walked forward.
As his body continued to move forward, the kobold corpses in front of him also began to change rapidly.
The originally plump flesh and blood began to dry up quickly. At first, it was just a little curled up, but in the end, it dried up completely and turned into a puddle of broken matter.
Even the original white bones were directly softened, and the essence of them was directly extracted, leaving only a pile of wreckage.
The whole scene looks very scary.
After a while, the scene in front of me was dealt with.
Karunu's figure slowly stopped.
"About fifteen servings of essence"
Standing in place, Karunu probably felt the situation, and then came to such a result.
After these days of practice, he quantified the source of life after being refined by swallowing the scriptures, and then set a standard.
About a hundred ordinary kobolds, after refining the life essence in their corpses, can form a unit of life essence.
The source of life of such a unit is very precious. If you use unique means to slowly integrate it into the body of an ordinary kobold, you can transform the dragon veins in its body, directly changing from an ordinary kobold to something like a kobold. A dragon vein kobold like Hechi.
Even becoming a dragon vein warlock is not impossible.
And the kobold corpses in front of me, the origin formed after refining, is about fifteen copies.
Not too bad.
Standing at the same place, Karunu's mind flashed this year, and then he took a step and continued to walk to the side. In the laboratory beside him, some unique things were placed there.
Those are some unique eggs.
The eggs in front of them all looked very unique, with different colors, some were black, some were red.
Of course, the most obvious thing is the red egg in the center.
Under Karunu's gaze, the red egg slowly bloomed with brilliance at this moment. The surface of the eggshell has various complex textures. At first glance, it looks very complicated and unique, like a work of art, very beautiful.
If you touch it with your hands, you can feel the heat from it, which is very warm.
Vaguely, a feeling of kindness and care came from this egg, and it just rushed to Karunu's body.
"Are you awake yet?"
Feeling the emotions emanating from this egg, Karunu smiled, and then said so.
In front of him, it seemed that he understood his words, and on the red giant egg in front of him, rays of light flickered, as if they were responding to him.
Looking at this scene, Karunu just smiled and didn't say much.
The giant eggs in front of me were basically purchased by Karunu from various places.
Being able to be placed in this place by him, these domes all have one characteristic in common.
That's Dragonborn.
Of course, it is not a weak dragonborn like a kobold, but a dragonborn with a stronger and purer dragon blood.
The giant red egg in the center is the egg of a red dragon.
Karunu specially collected the eggs of these dragon descendants here, and put them here for cultivation.
While they are still hatching, Karunu will inject divine power into these giant eggs, and let the divine power help them develop and make them stronger.
Afterwards, the origin of the refined dragon veins was injected into these giant eggs, so that the blood of these giant eggs could be further improved to a higher level.
After repeated training in this way, the development of these giant eggs is very good. Their bloodlines are strong and the source of life is thick, and they are generally stronger than their own kind.
For example, the red dragon egg in the center.
After being carefully cultivated by Karunu, the blood reaction of this red dragon egg, not to mention compared with the same red dragon egg, is not bad even compared to a purebred dragon.
To some extent, it has already broken the original racial boundaries. The blood in the body is so thick that it has even returned to its ancestors. Its blood is not inferior to that of a purebred dragon.
This is what Karunu has achieved for so long.
"It's about to hatch."
After roughly feeling the situation of these giant eggs around, Karunu smiled on his face, and then this year flashed in his mind.
In his feeling, some of these giant eggs in front of him are already close to the time when they are about to hatch.
For example, after more than a year of meticulous cultivation, the red dragon egg is finally about to hatch and truly descend into this world.
And a red dragon, which will also bring new power to the kobold tribe.
Dragon, this kind of life is very powerful, and everything on its body is precious materials.
His scales can be used to make magic items, and his flesh and blood can be used to make potions. Every part of his body has unique uses and is very precious.
As a subspecies of the giant dragon, the red dragon also has a similar effect.
Not to mention, the great power it represents.
Under normal circumstances, an adult red dragon is enough to rival the existence of the second ring.
As for the red dragon egg in front of me, if the red dragon bred in it hatches out, its power will definitely far exceed that of individuals of the same race, and its strength after adulthood may at least rival the existence above the third ring.
For the current kobold tribe, this can be regarded as very powerful.
After all, at the current stage, although there are quite a few kobolds under Karunu, there are really not many of them who can be called strong.
The only few people were He Chi and others.
He Chi and others activated the dragon veins in their bodies, and then practiced the knight breathing method given by Karunu, and embarked on the life knight road of this world, thus reaching the level of the first ring.
Previously, Karunu had brought together those kobolds with strong blood and awakened dragon veins in the kobold tribe, and taught these kobolds the knight breathing method and meditation method respectively.
Up to now, because of the advantage of blood, in the entire kobold tribe, some kobolds of apprentice level have appeared one after another, and even He Chi and others are even knights in the ring.
But so what
Behind those centaurs, there is no one else standing, but a church.
In a church, the power hidden in it is undoubtedly huge.
This can be seen from the previous Twilight Church.
Even if the Twilight Artifact is excluded, the strength of the Twilight Cult is extremely powerful. In the eyes of the Twilight Cult, the existence of some rings is nothing at all.
The same is true at this moment.
Since there is an unknown church standing among the centaurs, it probably has a powerful existence above the first ring.
Among the kobolds, there is only Karunu who is currently above the first ring.
There is no doubt that this situation is extremely dangerous.
But if these dragon eggs can be hatched, then the combat power of the kobold tribe can be greatly supplemented, and the strength of the entire kobold tribe can reach a new level.
Of course, this is only one direction.
After all, under the current circumstances, even if these dragon eggs can hatch, it will take an extremely long time for them to grow up and reach their adulthood.
The growth cycle of an extraordinary life is like this.
It takes at least a thousand years for a purebred giant dragon to grow from birth to adulthood.
As for the sub-dragons like Chilong, theoretically, the growth time will be much shorter, but it will not be less than a few hundred years.
It will take quite a long time to wait until they really grow up.
Of course, Karunu also has his own way of doing this.
The easiest way is undoubtedly to directly find a world where the passage of time is very different from the world of the gods, and then throw these sub-dragon species directly into that world.
After they have spent hundreds of years in that world, let them return to this world.
This is the easiest way.
"But think about it this way"
Standing in place, Karunu suddenly fell into deep thought: "It seems that we can also consider directly sending some kobolds with excellent aptitude to another world for training."
"In this way, we can also give them the opportunity and time to grow up to the greatest extent."
The experience of different worlds is the most suitable for tempering people.
And because the passage of time in different worlds is different, using this point can buy precious time for the kobolds, allowing some geniuses among the kobolds to grow up as soon as possible.
This kind of thing seems to be very tricky.
Standing where he was, this year flashed through Karunu's mind.
Then, after a while, he turned around and left this place, heading towards other places.
As for the thought just now, it was temporarily sealed by him.
The idea is good, but for the time being, it will take some time to implement it.
At least, in order to do what Karunu imagined, the first thing you need is to find a world with a time flow rate that is large enough to the world of the gods.
In this regard, you can only rely on the ontology to find it.
After all, although Karunu can also use some functions of the simulator, some functions of the simulator can only be used by the body.
Therefore, he can only wait.
Of course, if it really doesn't work, it's not bad to curse the world.
The speed of flow between this world and the world of the gods is gratifying. Chen Heng has been in that world for decades, but only a few months have passed in the world of the gods.
It is almost equivalent to one month in the world of the gods, and ten years over there.
From the perspective of time flow, it is more appropriate.
But relatively speaking, the environment of the cursed world is not suitable for kobolds and Yalong to enter.
After all, that world is a modern society where only humans exist.
When the kobolds enter it, they are completely different, and it is easy to cause confusion.
If you are not careful, it will cause some trouble.
That world can be regarded as Chen Heng's private land, and it is also the main source of his current divine power.
Unless it is a last resort, Karunu does not want to affect the operation of the cursed world.
Therefore, this world is not suitable.
If you want to find another suitable place, you can only wait until the next simulation of the ontology.
Of course, today, the most important thing for Karunu is the imminent hatching of the red dragon egg.
Standing on the spot, he roughly felt the state of the red dragon egg, and then roughly estimated the time.
"Is there two more days?"
This year flashed through his mind, then he looked at the red dragon egg in front of him and said, "Just rest quietly."
"I'll come here to see you again in two days."
He stretched out his hand, touched the red dragon egg in front of him, and then said so.
Under his gaze, the red dragon egg in front of him was shining brightly, as if responding to him.
