Another week has passed.

On April 8th.

In the Dragon Temple, the eight Dragon Clan elders came together and made a request to the Dragon Clan Patriarch Nozholm.

Cooperate with the Magic Association's Gold and Silver Pass Chamber of Commerce, and let the dragons of the various tribes of Dragon Island serve as the chamber's "financial custodian advisor".

And give good reasons for cooperation.

"Patriarch, cooperating with the Jinyintong Chamber of Commerce is beneficial to the Dragon Clan, and we don't need to leave Dragon Island to master a large amount of treasure. ”

"Patriarch, I heard that human beings have entered the era of digital payment and paper money payment, and they don't need much gold and silver treasures anymore, and now that the situation on the mainland is turbulent, putting the treasure on Dragon Island for safekeeping is indeed a good means to maintain the stability of the continent, and our dragon clan has also made our contribution to the financial security of mankind. ”

"As for the reward, it is also quite considerable, one ten-thousandth of the annual storage fee, if the storage time reaches 10,000 years, all those treasures will be ours!"

"The patriarch is worried that the Magic Association will suddenly transport the treasure back? No, there is basically no such possibility, if the war continues to expand, the nobles and wealthy of the human race will find a way to deposit the gold and silver treasures in the Gold and Silver Chamber of Commerce to ensure the safety of their property. ”

"If the war is over and we win, the gold and silver treasures will not be shipped back, and humanity has become accustomed to digital payments and paper money payments, and it is impossible to accept heavy gold coins. ”

"So this cooperation is a fruitful cooperation for the dragon clan!"

"Patriarch, I think we can say yes!"

In the main hall, all the elders of the dragon clan expressed their opinions one after another.

This......

Nordsholm, the dragon patriarch sitting at the top, muttered for a long time.

Long.

He said in a deep voice: "The Terrans have always been insidious and cunning, the sweeter the bait they release, the bigger the trap behind them, this cooperation seems to be very good for the Dragons, but is there any fraud in it, how do you know?"

"To be on the safe side, it's better not to work with humans. ”

Nozholm is still very wary of humans, after all, whether in the eyes of the elves or the dragons, the reason why the human race can become the overlord of the land is because of insidious cunning and all kinds of vicious tricks...... If it weren't for the cunning nature of human beings, it would not have been possible to become a land hegemon at all.

Therefore, when dealing with human beings, if you don't want to be deceived, it is best to close the door of cooperation and avoid heavy losses.

Obviously, this is an extremely conservative idea, and besides, when is it now, when is the wizarding world at its most dangerous! Is it really appropriate to continue to adopt a non-contact, non-cooperative attitude towards humanity?

Can this form a united front?

So the elders of the dragon clan spoke one after another, listing various reasons to persuade the patriarch.

These reasons are actually very reasonable, and they are very persuasive, and even refute all the views of the patriarch Nordsholm to the point that there is nothing to say, but ......

Nouzholm is still against!

Resolutely against!

"If it's other cooperation, this kind of cooperation, absolutely not!"

"Gold and silver treasures, isn't it bad enough to harm my dragon clan? How many dragon descendants have been killed for plundering treasures? How many dragon clans have been killed because of too much treasure collected in the cave?"

"If the dragon clan gets involved with treasure, nothing good will end well!"

"The greed attached to the treasure is the fundamental reason why the dragon clan has come to this situation!"

"If the dragon clan was only strong and had no treasure, the dragon clan would have been the overlord of the world long ago!"

"I will never let treasure lead every dragon member to spoil every dragon clan member! I will not let any dragon clan indulge in collecting treasure and indulging in treasure in vain, and get nothing!"

"I don't agree with this cooperation!"

Nouzholm said with a tough attitude and a somewhat agitated tone.

The dragon clan elders were silent for a few seconds and looked at each other.

It's another set of arguments that "treasure harms the dragon" and "the dragon clan will be really powerful without treasure...... Each of them had heard each dragon at least 800 times.

If it were changed in the past, they would feel that the patriarch was high-spirited, and that the patriarch's bitter words were very reasonable, in a sense, the treasure did make the dragon clan miserable, but the dragon clan is mixed to this point, is it really just because of the treasure?

"Patriarch, I think your words are wrong......"

The green dragon Malygos stood up, and according to the set of theories taught to him by Zhou Ming, he conducted an in-depth and thorough analysis from many aspects such as population size, resource utilization, and social management, and spent about 40 minutes talking about eight key points, systematically expounding the reasons why the dragon clan declined.

Finally, he concluded: "The weakening of the dragons is inevitable and inevitable, and our creativity, organization, tool-making, fertility, and even cultural creativity...... Humans are indeed the chosen race, and they have all the conditions to dominate the continent, while our dragon race, although the individual is very powerful, has a lot of flaws, and some flaws are fatal. ”

"I also don't deny that the dragon clan's pursuit and preference for treasure is part of the reason for the dragon's weakness, but it is by no means the main reason!"

"The main reason is that our huge bodies are not small and flexible enough, and our lack of creativity has allowed us to live in caves for hundreds of millions of years, while humans have built countless palaces and established countless empires......"

"Even if our dragon clan is at the top of the world, it is only the top of the single item of strength, and in terms of quantity, compared with humans, it is at an absolute disadvantage!"

"According to the barrel theory, with stored water as strength, dragons can hold far less water than humans...... Humanity is more balanced in all its abilities than all intelligent races. ”

"Therefore, compared with humans, a large number of shortcomings are the fundamental reason for the weakness of the dragon race. ”

As soon as Malygos finished speaking, the other seven elders next to him nodded their heads in agreement.

Patriarch Nozholm's expression was extremely ugly, and if he had a skin color, he must be a very ugly pig liver color at this moment.

I felt speechless again.

After all, every point that Malygos talked about did touch on the pain points, proving that "treasure" was not the source of the scourge of the dragons.

Nouzholm didn't expect that Malygos, who only knew how to talk and spoke without level and nutrition, would be able to say so many things that made sense.

He was speechless and very faceless.

But he just doesn't want to cooperate with humans!

His instincts told him that early contact with humans was never a good thing for dragons!

What's more, isn't cooperating with the Gold and Silver Chamber of Commerce equivalent to cooperating with the Magic Association?

His parents died at the hands of the Magic Society...... Although he was fashionable and young, he will never forget the scene when his parents finally said goodbye to him during that war.

So after a moment of silence.

"I don't agree to this cooperation. ”

"If any of you dare to come into contact with human beings without permission, and anyone who dares to cooperate with human beings without permission, I will find out and punish them severely!"

"I'm here to speak, do you know what to do?"

Nozholm said coldly, he is not a fool, how could he not see the real cattiness of these eight elders coming together?

"Patriarch!"

Malygos waited for the dragon to shout.

"Say no more, stand down!" Nozholm waved his claws, telling the dragons to stand down.

Malygos took out a black box-shaped audio device from the spatial ring and said, "Patriarch, I have a recording here, and after you listen to it, you will definitely agree to our request." ”

After saying that, he ignored the patriarch who was on the verge of rage and pressed the switch on the stereo.
