After a frightening month, the town of Iserlohn gradually returned to calm.
Maybe that Demon King Lydia really just came to say hello, and Lu Xidong could only comfort himself.
The kobold leader described Demon King Lydia as one of the most terrifying existences in the world. It is said that this child-like girl was the earliest ancient demon king to appear in the world. No one knows how many years she has lived.
However, her character is still as willful as a little girl. When she is happy, she will protect all countries and races that show respect to her. When she is unhappy, she will casually destroy a city or even a country.
Due to the power of the Storm Dragon, Lydia has two terrifying titles: "Dragon Claw Ravager" and "Storm Tyrant". It is said that Lydia only lives in the south of the Forbidden Forest, but has never added The deployment or subordinates have always been solitary.
But even so, no one dared to provoke her within a radius of 500 miles in the southern area of the Forbidden Forest. Seeing that a large area was controlled by Lydia alone.
"It's so scary and unpredictable!" The leader of the kobolds who was traveling around concluded with this, his eyes full of awe.
If such a terrifying guy were to attack right away, he would definitely be unable to resist it, right
Lu Xidong guessed that since this was the case, there must be no conspiracy or the like, right
After knowing how strong the other party was, Lu Xidong felt relieved. Maybe the other party really didn't have any ill intentions and was just passing by.
The reason why Lu Xidong thinks so is because there are too many people "passing by" recently.
The first is the kobold clan, which has established strongholds in the towns of Iserlohn and Rondolina respectively, and is helping the construction of docks and ships on Lake Nishizawa. It seems that they are determined to rely on the Monster Federation to watch and trade, and are ready to go big. One game.
Then there were the gophers, halflings, etc. mentioned before. Many weak races that originally lived nearby or in the surrounding areas visited this town one after another.
The gopher humans expressed their submission to the Monster Federation, so Lu Xidong asked them to assist in farming; the halflings were distant relatives of the dwarves and a very peaceful race, so Lu Xidong asked them to participate in construction work.
The important reason for these weak races to join was the large number of ferocious monsters in the Forbidden Forest, so Lu Xidong ordered that he lead a part of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry as a crusade force.
In the future, if we want to trade with the dwarves of the Free City, no matter whether we go along the river or cross the Forbidden Forest, there must be no hidden dangers. Therefore, we must clear out the dangerous monsters first. It will be safer then. After all, this is an alliance. The content set out in the agreement.
It was during this process of cleaning the forest that I met some special companions—a kind of magic bee and a kind of celestial silkworm.
Different from the wild and brainless Mergusul bee, these are two insect-type highly intelligent monsters that are also larger in size. The Demon Bee is about fifty centimeters long, and its buzzing sound reveals its huge size. threats.
When I saw him for the first time, the Demon Bee was confronting a magical beast called the Solitary Blade Tiger. Behind him was a more than thirty centimeters long Celestial Silkworm. It was squirming like a giant silkworm baby.
The Solitary Blade Tiger is very strong individually, probably reaching B level, but under the threat of the Demon Bee, it doesn't even dare to attack.
When Lu Xidong appeared with the Goblin Wolf Rider, the wise Lone Blade Tiger turned around and ran away.
As the original purpose of this mission, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry naturally would not let this guy go. Several cavalry immediately surrounded him and quickly captured this dangerous monster.
The intelligence level of Warcraft is generally not high. Unlike the wolf tribe that lives in groups, although the Solitary Blade Tiger is very strong alone, its IQ evolves very slowly, probably because it lives in isolation, and is full of primitive wildness.
Lu Xidong really wanted to tame these monsters. Even though he had low intelligence, he had raised dogs in this world in the past, and he always knew how to train dogs.
Worst case, if you really can't tame it, just kill it for meat. Two goblin wolf riders tied the captured lone-blade tiger in a net bag and dragged it back to Iserlohn.
Next, there was the method of dealing with insect-type monsters, which gave Lu Xidong a headache.
He must be a very strong guy who can confront B-level monsters, right
The bee-like demonic insect was not surprised at all when Lu Xidong and the others caught and dragged away the solitary-blade tiger. At this moment, it launched an attack without saying a word.
Is this guy so foolhardy? But soon Lu Xidong discovered that he had been wrong.
The reason why it launched an attack on Lu Xidong was to allow the demonic insect that looked like a silkworm to escape.
"Why don't you run away? I will try to help you resist for some time!"
The insect-shaped monster uses its unique mouthparts to emit magical sound waves to convey messages. Unfortunately, Lu Xidong is a reincarnated guy. This world is blessed with special rules. No matter what language it is, he can understand it.
It sounds like that demon bee is very loyal and wants to protect its companions from escaping.
Unfortunately, he was overestimating his abilities, and Lu Xidong would soon let him know how powerless he was.
At this moment, the Celestial Silkworm Demonic Insect behind them emitted the same magical sound wave, which was also received by Lu Xidong.
"Please...please wait a moment."
The silkworm-shaped demonic insect seemed to be very intelligent. He quickly judged the situation at this time, which was very unfavorable to them.
"This powerful demon, are you willing to take us in?"
Rather than surrendering, it was better to say that he was begging to return home, which made Lu Xidong look at him with admiration.
"How could it be possible? Demons are all cunning beings, and you still harbor illusions."
After resisting the attack of the bee-shaped demonic insect, the opponent was a little discouraged, but he was still struggling. It was obvious that this guy had a very stubborn character.
"No, it seems that this lord is a different being. The eyes of the goblins under him are full of admiration, not fear."
The silkworm-shaped demonic insect continued to plead, and what he said was very pleasant to the ears.
No one dislikes compliments, and Lu Xidong is no exception. He is determined to save these two demon insects. After all, their mutual support and friendship are very touching.
Let alone two bugs, even in the human world, a place full of intrigues and intrigues, people would not treat each other so openly.
Lu Xidong was very optimistic about these two demonic insects, so let them be his subordinates.
The bee-type demonic insect was still very resistant, but at the insistence of the silkworm-type demonic insect, two special partners joined in.
After questioning, Lu Xidong learned that the bee-shaped demonic insect is called "Sageweng" and the silkworm-shaped demonic insect is called "Abit". They are both "named monsters" and were once subordinates of the insect-shaped demon king Tesex.
Later, after the Demon King Tesex was tricked to death, the two of them lived in the Forbidden Forest, living a wandering life dependent on each other.
No wonder, Lu Xidong thought, these two guys have such high levels and power. They were also deployed by a certain demon king. Unfortunately, their king has died.
Without further delving into the cause of the insect-shaped demon king's death, believing that it was a sad thing for the other two, Lu Xidong solemnly invited them to live in the Monster Federation.
His harvest doesn't stop there. Seqiong can collect nectar, Abit can produce silk, and new production resources have appeared.
People in this era have learned how to make salt, but the process of refining sucrose is very backward. The amount of sugar produced in all parts of the continent is not enough for the nobles to eat themselves.
Therefore, it is difficult to taste sweet ingredients and flavorings in the town of Iserlohn.
They say sweetness is the source of happiness, so Lu Xidong said that he always felt a little empty, which must be because he couldn't eat sweets for a long time.
Lu Xidong also tried to domesticate wild bees in the past, but he had neither the technology nor the ability to control the quality of the honey collected by the bees.
Well, now, in the Forbidden Forest, you can collect some particularly rare flowers, which only bloom in places with high magic concentration or special places. The nectar of these flowers is of very high quality.
If it is a highly intelligent Psychion, it should be able to select only these rare flower species and collect the nectar of those flowers.
In this way, you can eat sweet honey, but with only one magic insect, Sage, the honey production is very low.
This secret must be strictly kept, Lu Xidong secretly made up his mind. Until mass production, honey will remain a secret in the town.
At this time, people began to block information and monopolize resources out of greed, and soon a new social form would sprout.
On the one hand, Lu Xidong modified the marriage system and distributed land equally, which pushed civilization towards equality and freedom. On the other hand, he began to gradually establish a centralized system and monopolize scarce resources.
If this continues, where will the future of the Monster Federation go
Lu Xidong hadn't realized yet that there was something good to watch...
