What the Spirit Naga said, why didn't he think about it?

To put it mildly, the Lizard Queen is the founder of their black-scaled lizardmen, their grandmother, their king, and their god.

It's hard to hear, she is the largest and most greedy leech monster in the Thun Swamp, attached to the black-scaled lizardmen, greedily sucking their blood, squeezing all the nutrients in their bodies, and now it has seriously affected the development and growth of the black-scaled lizardmen tribe.

Just look at the reaction of the lizard queen just now, she will not refuse any request to the conqueror army, at least not in a short time, all the burden, the lizard queen definitely does not want to bear a share, and when the time comes, it will be transferred to the black-scaled lizardman tribe without reservation.

A fifth of the strength plus a tenth of the catch sounds very high.

But compared to what the Lizard Queen eats every day, this is really a low number, you must know that at least half of all the food of all their tribes must be pickled to barely satisfy the Lizard Queen's greedy appetite, and from time to time a few crazy frogmen are eaten by the Lizard Queen and beat their teeth, which is a normal thing.

Gavin mended his knife and said: "As long as you are willing to nod, the treasure in the dragon nest of the lizard queen, I will not take a penny, whether it is to fill the royal treasury, or distribute it to the entire tribe of black-scaled lizardmen, I don't ask, at the same time, I also allow you to go to the city of faith to exchange the special products of the Thun swamp for the materials you need, and the black-scaled lizardmen on rotation in the navy do not need your support, as long as you still swear allegiance to me for one day, I will provide you with shelter for one day, when you encounter natural disasters, man-made disasters, wars...... No matter what calamity, if you ask me for help, I will do my best to help you get through it. ”

Gavin is ready to adopt the mode of autonomous rule in the Thun Marshes, which is determined by the special geographical circumstances here, where it is not easy for humans to move an inch, but it is also extremely troublesome.

Neither they nor the mixed transcendent teams of those black-scaled lizardmen tribes came in through normal walking, but with the assistance of the spirit Naga, they used a large number of teleportation techniques to teleport them to the periphery of the various black-scaled lizardmen tribes - although the lizardmen are amphibious creatures, they do not live in water holes, but on dry land that is rarely flooded by swamp water, after all, they swim with breath holding, not breathing with their gills like fish, and there is no way to sleep in the water.

Just like if they have been out of water for a long time, they will get dehydration, and soaking in water for a long time is also not a good thing, and if you take it seriously, they are far more critical of the environment than other intelligent beings.

As for distributing the treasures from the Lizard Queen's Dragon's Lair to the Blackscale Lizardmen, Gavin had the goal of killing two birds with one stone.

One is to show his benevolence, he has heard clearly from the spirit Naga the details of the lizard queen's dragon's nest treasure, the full count is only three million, of which one million is not long ago from the Sambian merchants, used to attack the conqueror's army, the gold content of the dragon's nest treasure is not particularly high, after all, the Thun swamp is a poor country, the special size of the lizard queen is destined to make it impossible for her to go out to rob, most of her treasure is the black-scaled lizardman from the Thun swamp scavenged scavenging.

Normally, with tens of thousands of black-scaled lizardman minions, the lizard queen's dragon's lair treasure is far more than that, but she can't resist her greed and eat, and most of her possessions are swallowed and digested by her.

Before the conqueror's army set out on its journey, the three million were not astronomical to Gavin, but they were a huge fortune for Gavin, but now, at best, they were an add-on, not much, not less.

The second is the binding of interests, after eating the treasure of the lizard queen's dragon's nest, these black-scaled lizardmen will never turn back, it is impossible to think about the lizard queen anymore, and they must follow their own path to the black, because the greedy dragons do not allow anyone to touch her treasure, not even their own children.

On the other hand, the Lizard Queen will be Gavin's weapon to deter the Blackscale Lizardmen, and if they dare to make a small move behind their backs, he will only need to put the Lizard Queen back and turn this place upside down.

The third is to revitalize trade, these black-scaled lizardmen in the Thun swamp are not poor and white, and many places are in a state of extreme poverty, but since they want to adopt the governance plan of the autonomous region, they can't support them unconditionally like they did with the dwarf statue city and the blood gorge city, he can completely guide them, and use the dragon's nest treasure of the lizard queen to buy goods and even construction services in the hands of the conqueror's army, so that the overall level of the black-scaled lizardmen can be raised, and with better tools, they can create more value.

This is a typical left-handed hand-to-right-handed, inside and out, Gavin is earning, and in the end, the Lizard Queen Dragon's Lair treasure will not be in the hands of others.

Gregory's eyes flickered, and he snorted for a long time before he said, "Can you tell me what happened to the queen?" She looks like she's turned into a shadow dragon, but she doesn't, and what if we agree to your terms, and one day she's back? ”

This half-black dragon lizardman is not so much worried about the lizard queen's life or death, but more worried about the lizard queen's incomplete death, and once it reappears one day, and they have betrayed her, it will definitely be a disaster for the entire Thun swamp.

"She is indeed dead, but the dragon soul is controlled by me, without the dragon soul, even the dragon god has no way to resurrect her, she wants to be resurrected, she must be approved by me." Gavin didn't mean to hide it, after they joined their camp, sooner or later they would know about the situation in the Vizeme Manor, "As long as you don't betray me, I guarantee that she will never be resurrected, unless you want to." ”

Gavin just spoke to appease them, and even if they wanted to, he wouldn't do it, because the cost of keeping a lizard queen was too great, and eating so much every day was no different than eating gold.

Spending money to hire dragons, at least their gold coins are hoarded, and they can one day find a way to get them out of their hands, although the difficulty of this matter is very high, but it is not completely impossible to think of.

But once you eat it in your stomach, it's really gone, and there's no trick to think about at all.

"It's useless even if I want to, I don't have such a high reputation in the Lizard King's court, and once my brothers know that His Majesty will not return, they will most likely challenge me and want to become the new king, and Thun Swamp will most likely fall into civil war as a result." Gregory's attitude is no longer as tough as it was at the beginning, which shows that he has moved his heart and is just looking for an excuse to delay.

"Prestige doesn't fall out of thin air, it's built up, and I've delivered the tools to you." Gavin said, "First of all, the Lizard Queen Dragon's Lair treasure is in your own hands, and you can make good use of it, exchange them for arms, arm your cronies, your people, and make them the most powerful of the black-scaled lizardmen tribe."

Secondly, you can divide all those who you feel you can't control into an amphibious army and hand them over to us to manage and train.

As long as you can bring those black-scaled lizardmen a richer and more stable life, give them more ways to obtain wealth, and give them hope for a better life, they will unconsciously come to you, don't you even have the confidence to do it?

There are many ways to gain prestige, and you don't have to learn the Lizard Queen's terrifying methods, which are the most inferior.

Anachel gives you a good excuse to keep a regular army for a long time by clearing out the snake tribes throughout Thun Marsh, and as long as you have enough troops at your disposal, they will naturally fear you and obey you. ”

Gregory's eyes were still flickering, and he couldn't give a positive answer.

Spirit Naga sprayed a venom next to him, "You are not the only one with the blood of Kurgol flowing on your body, if you feel that you are not qualified for this position, it doesn't matter, I believe that many people outside are willing to accept this deal, and are willing to make a small sacrifice for the future of the black-scaled lizard-people tribe and become the new king of the lizard-royal court, but are they restraining their desires like generals and wholeheartedly seeking a better future and development for the entire black-scaled lizardmen, or do they follow the example of Queen Kurgol, It would be unknown to use the entire tribe of black-scaled lizardmen as a tool for their own benefit and to satisfy their own selfish desires. ”

The choice to support Gregory to ascend to the throne is naturally not the result of Gavin and their brains, but the best candidates selected through the intelligence of the Lizard Royal Court mastered by the Spirit Naga and the in-depth analysis of the entire Lizard Royal Court.

In the multiverse, many creatures have racial labels (racial personalities, behavior patterns, body patterns, etc., not to mention being separated by countless mountains and rivers, even across the plane, the appearance of these races is extremely similar to the racial personality, just like their innate logo), the more powerful the creatures, the more obvious the racial label on their body, and the dragon is a model of this, no matter what the environment in which they were born, as long as their bloodline is pure, they usually present the appearance of their racial label.

All this is based on the condition of free growth, and once everything has the intervention of external forces, it will show diversified development.

Therefore, the race label can only be used as a reference, not a uniform standard for truly measuring an organism.

It's better to have a book than no book, and when you measure a dragon exactly by its racial label, you're not far from death.

The lizard queen Kurgol is not simply out of the restrictions of the black dragon race label in her posture, even if the camp is biased upward, she also has a certain degree of bias, no longer the unscrupulous, demon-like disorderly evil (chaotic evil) of ordinary black dragons, but biased towards orderly evil, especially when dealing with black-scaled lizardmen, she will try her best to restrain her desire to kill and destroy.

But the way to restrain this desire is not from goodness and beauty, but from another desire—endless gluttony.

Only in this way can the black-scaled lizardmen develop and grow, and they can hunt better, provide more food for themselves, and satisfy their appetites.

The Lizard Queen herself is still like this, and the requirements for the black-scaled lizardmen below are naturally higher, and they must be highly obedient, highly restrained, and highly loyal, such a character is definitely not possessed by chaotic and evil people, only those who are orderly can meet this characteristic.

For this reason, the lizard queen spent a long time training the black-scaled lizardmen, and her training was simple and rude, following the principle of survival of the fittest, those who followed these fine traditions of the black-scaled lizardmen could survive, and those hybrids who were dominated by the nature of the black dragon, even if they were her closest relatives, she would send them back to her belly to reshape.

In order to survive, these black-scaled lizardmen naturally tried every means to disguise themselves, restrain their desires, and even used magic to change part of their nature, and then they formed the current black-scaled lizardmen who are completely centered on the lizard queen.

And Gregory was promoted to his current position by the Lizard Queen, neither because he was strong nor smart enough, but because he was stupid enough, at least in the entire tribe of black-scaled lizardmen, his character in this area was outstanding enough - everything was a general, and if Gregory was measured by the standards of the paladin, he would not even be qualified to get started, even if he was more selfish and jerked than most humans.

Faced with the temptation from the serpent priest Anachel and the conqueror army Gavin, Gregory's subconscious refusal stems from this character, if it were an ordinary half-black dragon, he would have run back to Thun Swamp with the lizard army to launch a palace coup when the situation was not in favor of the lizard queen, and take everything for himself (whether it is the dragon's lair treasury or the black-scaled lizardman tribe), and the rule he executes here will be a copy of the lizard queen, and even worse, Use the entire blackscale lizardman as a tool to serve yourself.

Gregory, who has always struggled with his own nature, is naturally very aware of the temperament of his siblings, and many people are eager to replace him, and no one knows what will happen if they are left in power.

Rather than letting this happen, it is better to put everything under your control, at least you can ensure that you can control your selfishness and can seek the interests of the entire blackscale lizardman tribe.

After understanding the truth here, Gregory no longer hesitated, his huge body directly knelt down on one knee in front of Gavin and said: "I, Gregory, am willing to honor the Lord as the guardian of the Thun Swamp, I will lead the entire Black Scale Lizardmen of the Swamp to swear allegiance to the Lord, and I am willing to accept the protection of the Lord, the Lord's divine will is ours, and we will always follow in the footsteps of the Lord and never turn our backs." ”

"General, please." Gavin, who had already put away his battle armor, said with a heartfelt smile on his face, "We've got a good start now, let's move on to some details." ”

"I wonder if the lord has any other good suggestions?" Gregory's attitude is quite fast, even if the other party pushes himself to the front as the king, the power in his hands cannot be completely autonomous like the Lizard Queen period, it must be restricted by the other party, according to the will and pace of the other party, otherwise the other party can change to a new king at any time, or in other words, directly put the Lizard Queen back.

From the moment the Lizard Queen was killed and controlled, he was already at an absolute disadvantage in this matter, and the only thing he could do was to do his best to maneuver around it, and strive for more benefits for the black-scaled lizardman tribe as much as possible, so as not to become a slave race and become cannon fodder for the other party to drive away at will, just like they drove the mad frogmen.

"Before I talk about this, let me introduce you to someone." Gavin pointed to the middle-aged man who appeared beside him at some point and said, "Borui, a pious lady of strategy, will be your vizier, providing you with advice and helping you reorganize the Lizard Court and control the entire Thun Swamp. ”

Although Gavin is ready to exercise autonomy in the Thun swamp, it does not mean that all affairs are let go, and it is inevitable to install his own people.

Fortunately, when he did not embark on the road of conqueror, he was poor and white, and all the generals were drawn from the top, and they were forcibly promoted on the spot, and they were selected while using them.

It would be an exaggeration to say that the hundred Divine Strategists that Catherine had allocated to him were all good rulers, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were excellent mid- and lower-level commanders and generals, and several of them were ranked only below Villanica in the Red Fellowship.

One of them was Borui, who wore armor with the Lady of Strategy, but it was extremely quaint and scarred, and in many places it smelled of the sacrifice of the War Lord of Tampas.

He is a clear proof of the good relationship between the Lord of War and the Lady of Strategy, before last year, he was still a believer in Tampas, and when the Lady of Strategy opened the priesthood, he found that the series of priesthoods she represented were more in line with his own character, so he did not hesitate to switch to her name, but the grace of Tampas did not leave him, he was a double god priest.

The Lady of Strategist's planning, strategy, and tactics are not limited to the realm of war, but also to the realm of statecraft, especially in monster countries like the Lizard Court, who are destined to be unable to implement any democracy, constitutional monarchy, or the most suitable way for them to rule is militaristic rule.

The army is the country, and the country is the army.

Whether it is Blood Gorge City or Colossus City, including the Dragon Oak Collar, they all follow this path.

"It's my pleasure." Gregory knew that he could not refuse this personnel arrangement, and he could not refuse.

In fact, he is a little bit of a duck on the shelves now, and the whole person is still confused, he thinks that he can manage the entire black-scaled lizardman tribe, but if he really lets him govern it, he doesn't know how to start for a while.

Among the many dragon breeds, the black dragon has never been known for its intelligence, and the lizardman is half a pound or two with the kobolds and goblins, and the offspring of the two races are naturally few of them with superior intelligence, most of them are the lords with muscular bumps in their heads, and they are better at wielding their fists than using their brains.
