Every inaccessible place is always occupied by various creatures.
The Rift Mountains are naturally no exception.
In the mountains far away from the trade routes, kobolds, goblins, ogres, pythons, jungle wolves, spiny tailed lions, dire bears, and even some elemental creatures appear.
Not to mention the more complex, more dangerous, and more elusive monsters from the Underdark.
Combined with the kobold's information, Isaac's simple map has a lot more markings.
"Those who can work hard at mining are all qualified slaves. Goblins are the next target to conquer. You can consider dividing slaves into three, six or nine grades. Kobolds are direct descendants, so they are in the eighth grade, and goblins are placed in the ninth grade.
If you want to improve your status, you either have to have power, or you have to work hard to increase ore production."
"Then there is the transportation route of the ore. Monsters along the way must be cleaned up regularly."
"When the route is opened, the channel from Gelin can also come in. Then there is the planning of the breeding area and the planning of the planting area."
"We definitely can't rely on kobolds and goblins."
Isaac couldn't help but think of the hobgoblin who once handled various affairs for Long Jie. Unfortunately, the kobolds, the goblin's old enemy, were very sure that there was absolutely no hobgoblin in the goblin tribe here.
It seems that humans are still needed.
Thinking of humans, he couldn't help but think of the silver village again.
If it weren't for those lycanthropes, he and Altana would still be developing well in the Black Mist Jungle. Maybe by this time, the entire jungle would have been brought under the control of the "Green Dragon Empire".
"If Altana was here, with her energy, I wouldn't need to worry about these things."
"Although you are no longer here, the Empire will still retain your place."
"And those mages..."
Isaac took a deep breath and let it out silently.
Although he never took the initiative to inquire about any information about the "Elemental Blade", from just a few words from his teacher, he knew that he still had a long way to go before revenge.
After all, the Synthesis Institute is only one of the four major institutions. If this institution is to be destroyed, how can the entire Mage Kingdom sit back and watch?
"There is no rush. It will take a hundred years for the green dragon to take revenge. Moreover, it is impossible for such a force to have no enemies. My teacher is close to the soul, but those shadow mages are mortal enemies of him. It can be seen that not all mages are.
We are on the same side."
"Unite all forces that can be united. The enemy of your enemy is your future comrade-in-arms."
…
A few days later, with the arrogant kobolds in tow, Isaac took the goblin tribe under his wing.
They also used bloody methods to completely open the passage between the two tribes. All meat-eating animals were either turned into bones or fled far away.
Afterwards, he mobilized a large number of slaves to walk around the mountain along a relatively gentle route, cutting down forests to clear a road. A road that could transport resources quickly extended towards the agreed place.
In addition to taking dragonflies with him from time to time to clean up carnivores along this route and spreading a dangerous atmosphere, Isaac did not always keep an eye on the construction work of the slaves. He used kobolds as goblin supervisors and goblins as kobold supervisors.
The operation is enough to keep both parties "exuberant" in energy.
He is busy with experiments on strengthening the kobold's strong body and selecting the final location for the lair.
"The synthesis efficiency of magic-stimulating hormone in the body of kobolds is extremely low, but the synthesized 'magic-like molecules' are most suitable for the body of kobolds."
"Direct injection of 'magic-like molecules' can change the quality of the kobold as quickly as possible, but it can also easily cause a certain degree of discomfort. The injection time and dosage must be grasped."
After completing the experiment on twenty healthy subjects with different doses of the two mixtures, their specimens were extracted.
While Isaac dismissed them, he began to analyze each specimen and continuously added new data to their respective databases.
Now, he is no longer a novice when debugging the first generation dragon fly.
Once you experiment, you have complete control over the intensity and progress.
Twenty strong bodies occasionally reacted with discomfort. Perhaps the kobold himself was not aware of it. He had already grasped the omens through the database in advance.
After relevant adjustments, these discomforts were quickly resolved.
The experiment has only been conducted for about ten days, and the changes in these kobolds have already begun to become obvious.
Their scales gradually revealed a bit of green and became tougher. Their originally short and thin bodies also had muscle lines. They seemed to have grown taller, and even the aggression in their eyes became stronger.
Of course, they themselves are more aware of such changes. While they are more devoted to the green dragon father, they also use practical actions to stimulate the enterprising spirit of the kobold tribe.
For example, giving birth, such as working...
But their great master just watched all this quietly and paid attention to the fluctuations of their thoughts at all times.
"If kobold experimental subjects can be used, they may be able to solve the shortcomings of Green and the others' lack of strength after their development, and at the same time tie them more firmly to the 'Imperial' chariot."
"There are dragon flies, but..."
Thinking of the dragon fly, Isaac hesitated slightly.
The extremely weak intelligence of dragon flies allows them to obey orders and at the same time, they are not afraid of death.
But extremely weak intelligence also means flaws.
Most operations must be directed by him, and he even needs regular training. After all, new generations are constantly being born.
He has considered further improving the dragon fly's intelligence, even if it is only a small part, so that he can be used as a commander and be able to complete some simple and clear tasks without him.
However, he hesitated. Even if he had the ability to detect thoughts, the number of these little guys was too huge. If they were randomly mixed together, he would not be able to detect them.
What if something goes wrong... But no matter what time, when he wakes up, he will only be left with a pile of bones!
"Wait a little longer, wait until adolescence, awaken the 'Dragon Power', and these children are no longer a threat, and then further strengthen the experiment."
After thinking about it again and again, I finally put the plan down.
Anyway, he is not considering external conquest now. He has the dragon beast plan and the dragon-veined kobold plan, which are enough.
Putting away the records, Isaac walked out of the temporary laboratory and went to observe the pterosaur before walking out of the temporary lair.
Just then, I saw Kuzi, the leader of the Kuba tribe, running over quickly.
He is also one of the experimental subjects. Not only does his strength grow faster than Kuli's, but his wisdom also has enough advantages.
Always firmly grasp the power of the Kuba tribe.
As soon as he saw the green dragon coming out from a distance, he crawled close to it, knelt down again, and said excitedly: "Great master, your order, our Kuba tribe has finally completed it. In the mountains in the north
There, there is a group of spiny-tailed lions, and their lair is very wide. The brave Kuba people, who are not afraid of death, secretly went in to investigate while they were out hunting, and found that the lair led all the way to the ground, and there was an underground river..."
Spiny tailed lion?
Isaac looked slightly suspicious, not that he doubted the kobold's loyalty.
However, although creatures like spiny tailed lions are relatively powerful, they don't seem to have much to do with digging holes, right?
Most probably it occupies the lair of some creature.
There is an underground river, and a secret passage leading to the sky, double insurance, should be enough.
These kobolds tried their best and actually dared to enter the spiny lion's lair to investigate.
It seems that the changes in the experimental subjects are enough to motivate them.
