As for the reason for allowing kobolds to reproduce, it is also very simple.

Workforce.

The kobold has a strong reproductive ability, can lay twenty or thirty eggs a year, and the growth rate is also extremely fast, and the newborn kobold can grow from a young child to a qualified labor force within three months when there is enough food.

The so-called two in one life, two in four, and four in eight.

The reason why they were not allowed to reproduce in the past is also because of this, if the kobold always have a hatred for him, then there is naturally no need to let them grow the group and make it more difficult to manage.

But now that the kobolds have become extremely fanatical about him, they worship him as a god, and there is no need to worry about increasing the size of their clan and increasing the labor force in their territory.

Bypass the underground caverns and make your way to the entrance of the mountain.

The road that had been blocked by falling rocks has been cleared, revealing a rugged mountain road that winds its way up the mountain.

As the mountain road goes up the mountain, the view gradually widens.

The sea in the distance, the mountains at the feet, the jungle in the island, and the six sub-islands in the northwest and northeast

From here, you can see anywhere in the Crescent Islands at a glance.

"Maybe we can set up a few lookouts here in the future..."

The mountain is tall from afar, and it is also very high up close.

They made their way along mossy mountain paths, some of which were less than half a meter wide, and outside were cliffs up to 100 meters high and crashing at the bottom.

Looking up, there is still a considerable distance from the top of the mountain, and it is estimated that this peak is at least hundreds of meters high.

After passing through a narrow walkway again, a platform with a depression appeared in front of me, and a small waterfall crashed into the platform from above, and fell down the stone crevice and fell down a hundred meters of cliff.

And on the deep rock wall, there is a stone building, looking at the architectural style, it should be left by the old civilization of the Crescent Islands.

In the old civilization buildings I encountered before, there are more or less some remnants.

Ji Chen immediately became interested in his heart.

The all-seeing map showed that there were some monsters hiding inside the building, and he casually asked the pure water sea elves to shoot a few water arrows into it.

"Ding~ Enter the battle... Morale is 88. ”

88 morale?

Ji Chen was a little surprised.

He had never fought such a rich battle in his eight lifetimes.

Sure enough, a sharp-billed seagull with a pure white body flew out of the gap in the building.

He just glanced at it and didn't show much interest.

First-order 4-star spicy chicken.

The shallow sea fishman quickly used his trident to nail these sharp-billed seagulls to the tip of the halberd.

The bodies are also fat and plump, and it looks like there should be a few catties of meat to eat.

Seeing that he had already walked for half a day, and the army had consumed a lot of physical strength, he ordered to stop and start cooking these seagulls on a fire to take a break.

Lighting the torch and walking into the dark building, a space was dug out of the mountain, and because of the light, it was impossible to see how tall it was.

However, it seems to have been used as a nest by the sharp-billed gulls, and the ground is covered with thatch and dead branches, and there are some white eggs between the soft thatch.

He didn't pay much attention to it after a few glances, and continued to search around, and found a lot of animal carcasses in the corner, piled up in the corner of the wall to form a mountain of bones.

Ji Chen looked at these bone piles, his brows furrowed slightly.

It appears that in addition to small animals, some of these bones are clearly large animals, even kobolds and human bones.

Recall that the sharp-billed seagulls with no more than the size of their heads seem to be large enough to hunt large animals, kobolds and humans, right?

"Tss

Just when he was a little puzzled, there was a sudden burst of screaming screams outside.

The sound pierced through the golden cracks and made my ears hurt for a while.

Ji Chen's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly walked out with a torch.

As soon as he returned to the platform, he saw that the army was already on alert, the fishman raised his trident, and the Naga warrior's eyes turned bloody.

Take a look in the blink of an eye.

Dozens of giant sharp-billed seagulls flew in the air outside the platform, with a wingspan of three or four meters, sharp claws, beaks like spikes, and the strong wind of their wings fanned to suppress the weeds in the gaps.

"Your Excellency—" Alice and Anina approached.

"What happened? Where did such a giant seagull come from? ”

"These are probably their children..."

At this time, Ji Chen saw this group of giant seagulls looking at the corpses of seagulls hanging on the bonfire that had begun to emit fragrance.

The eyes are sad and desolate, and the strange sorrowful cries are continuous.

It dawned on him.

Oh, and it turns out that these little seagulls are the children of this group of giant seagulls, and it's no wonder they're able to hunt large animals.

Boy.

This is roasting their children in front of them, and it really makes him a little embarrassed.

Ji Chen stared at them and looked at their attribute panels.

【Giant Sharp-billed Seagull】

[Rank]: 3rd Order: 5 stars

[Class Characteristics]: Staminaw Saver (Reduces Stamina's Exertion when flying)

The giant sharp-billed seagulls stared at them with blood-red eyes, and suddenly screamed violently, and one by one they flapped their wings and rushed into the sky like fighter jets with full throttle.

After a brief circle, they swooped down like rockets.

They're going to peck through the heads, suck their brains, and eat their flesh and blood from these enemies who kill their children!

Buzz –

The giant seagulls made a terrible sound as they swooped, their sharp spear-like beaks as if they could tear through the air, and their wings brought out a white air current.

Dozens of giant sharp-billed seagulls swooped down together, and the scene was quite spectacular and dangerous, as if they were about to peck the rocks open!

If they were to catch their bodies, they would be torn apart in an instant.

"My lord, am I going to make a move?" Alice asked in a low voice.

Ji Chen shook his head lightly, with a slight smile on his face.

Looking up at the giant seagull that was getting closer and closer, his right hand raised slightly.

The energy of the spell began to surge, filling the platform in a thick air.

The water of the waterfall on one side seemed to be pulled by an invisible hand, and it was pulled by a huge force, converging on their heads in defiance of gravity.

In the sunlight, the water reflects the slanted rays of light, which is quite dreamy.

Ji Chen's fingers moved slightly, and they condensed into a very thick water shield, enveloping all the troops.

At this time, the giant sharp-billed seagull finally fell from the sky.

The tip of the beak, harder than metal, sharper than a knife, pierced into the water shield.

But instead of being able to pass through the water as they had imagined, it was as if it was stuck in glue, and its beaks and claws were frozen in it.

No matter how much they struggle, they couldn't move half a minute.

Seeing this, Ji Chen lightly lifted his right hand.

The next moment, the water shield suddenly changed.

From defense to offense.

Hundreds of spikes of water shot out from the smooth surface of the water, piercing the body of the giant seagull in an instant like piercing paper from all directions.

In the sunlight, the water thorns mixed with blood penetrated the flesh, emitting a strange light, with a touch of bewitching and strange beauty.

And the giant seagulls, naturally, are dead and can't die anymore.

"Ding~ You killed a flock of giant sharp-billed seagulls, gained 9800 experience points, and your level has increased (12→13)."

The entire battle lasted less than a minute, and the giant sharp-billed seagull, which was enough to deal a devastating blow to the average class, became a corpse in the blink of an eye without any resistance.

Ji Chen's powerful power was revealed at this moment.

Domineering, silent, and strong.

The third-order 5-star class was killed like chickens, and there was no power to resist.

The Naga warriors roared, shouting victorious cheers for their masters.

The shallow fish-man raised his trident and croaked excitedly.

Sea elves fluttered around, venting their hearts.

And each hero also has its own face.

Alice's eyes sparkled, mixed with love, adoration, infatuation, and intoxication, and only such a lord could allow her to offer her body and soul wholeheartedly.

And Anina was a little stunned and surprised on her face, muttering that this way of killing was much faster than her sword slashing.

But at this time, Ben Bo Erba suddenly walked out and came to Ji Chen.

The tone is very sincere, and the expressions and movements are extremely pompous.

"Your Excellency, you are really powerful, not only have the strength of the ocean, but also have the wisdom higher than the sky, and have the heart to find a deeper than the sea, to be able to become a hero under your command, to serve you, is our supreme honor!"

"The crown of the ocean will surely be able to become the most powerful territory under your leadership, and all living beings will be subjugated to your feet."

Everyone was stunned.

Good guy, you fish-man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, you look stupid, you still slap your ass like this!?

Anina suddenly whispered, "Sycophant." ”

But Rush Erba didn't care.

You young people still have to learn more from the wisdom of the elderly.

After Ji Chen was stunned for a moment, he smiled and said, "Okay, okay, don't be a sycophant, deal with these giant seagulls, and the eggs in them are also cooked." ”

"Everyone retreats one after another."

Hearing this, all the troops immediately retreated some distance according to the order.

Seeing this, he waved his hand casually, interrupting the transmission of spell energy.

The water shield, which had lost the support of the spell, suddenly turned into a scattered piece of stagnant water and fell with a bang, and the giant seagull that had turned into a sieve fell to the ground with a "snap".

The classes stepped forward and began to process them.

Half an hour later, more than a dozen larger bonfires were erected next to the bonfires roasting the baby seagulls, on which hung giant seagulls that had been stripped clean, and were evenly heated by the rotation of the Naga warriors.

Now it's okay, the big and small families are all served in one pot.

It's okay to save them from feeling lonely.

He Ji someone is a good person, so he will naturally send them to reunite, but in the stomach.

It took some time to bake, and Ji Chen turned around and walked back into the building.

The search was interrupted in the middle of the search, and now the search continues.

But after digging through the thatch, dead leaves, and bones all over the ground, he found nothing of value, all of which were rubbish used by seagulls to build their nests.

Just when he was feeling a little frustrated.

The torch in his hand suddenly burst into flames, and sparks flew everywhere, and the scattered sparks made the lighting range larger.

He glanced out of his corner and noticed that there seemed to be something on the walls around him?

The torch was raised, and when I stared, there were some petroglyphs on the walls.

After a few glances, Ji Chen was a little surprised.

This seems to be... What remains of the old civilization of the Crescent Islands?

There seems to be something written on it...

I must have been in my heart, and I continued to fix my eyes.

Civilization... Bustling... Enemy... Evolve... Destroy...

More than ten minutes later.

Ji Chen, who had finished looking at the last petroglyph on the wall, exhaled deeply and had a general understanding in his heart.

I don't know how long ago, the Crescent Islands did have a civilization, and a rather prosperous and powerful civilization was built here.

But the sphere of influence of this civilization is not limited to here, but also occupies dozens of islands large and small in the nearby seas.

Just when everything is going in a good direction.

Enemies from the depths of the ocean appeared.

On the petroglyphs, the appearance of various enemies is faithfully depicted.

Ji Chen was quite familiar with one of them, and had even seen them.

Tentacle body, petaled skull, spiked mouthparts.

It's the kind of strange monster called Kaiji, which can evolve.

This civilization is quite strong, and it can resist at first, but in the end, it is compressed by the continuous evolution of the sea heirs.

First the islands in the nearby waters were lost, and then the Crescent Islands began to be invaded, and the defense lines were broken through.

The few remaining people shrank onto the mountain, thinking they would be able to resist stubbornly against the treacherous terrain, but in the end, to their horror, they found that the sea heirs had flown out of the water...

These petroglyphs are the last thing left of this civilization.

Ji Chen's mood was a little heavy.

He thought that this civilization was destroyed by some disaster, or for some reason, but he didn't expect that it was Haihei who perished...

It seems that there is more to be wary of this strange race.

It's been almost a month since the last time I killed the Sea Heir, and according to Anina's prediction, this Sea Heir group may have already reacted.

Even now, more numerous and stronger sea heirs have been assembled and are heading towards the Crescent Islands.

The last time it was a second-order 9-star, and the next time it might be a third-order, or even a fourth-order sea heir.

Ji Chen's heart sank, and it seemed that he was going to continue to unlock the technology tree and improve the strength of each class.

Step out of the building and onto the platform.

After eating grilled seagull meat and cooked seagull eggs, take a short break.

The group continued to advance on top of the cliff, towards the very top of the mountain.

Today they're going to finish exploring the Dragon's Lair!

On it together
