The weapons and armor of these kobolds are very crude, and they are simply like the most destitute refugees in the wilderness.
Coupled with his short stature, thin body, and ugly appearance, he actually looked a little funny.
There are also some fine scales all over the body, which seems to be somewhat similar to a lizard man.
However, Zong Shen noticed something, that is, almost every kobold had an iron hand pick about 30 centimeters long hanging on his waist.
Those kobolds bark "wow" in a strange tone, which is their unique language.
The sound sounds very much like the barking of a puppy.
These ugly little guys should have some wisdom.
At this time, an old kobold with strange oil paint on his face came out.
It held a rough wooden dagger in its hand and looked left and right towards Zong Shen, who was riding on the back of the tall Bajie and standing down from a high position.
He tremblingly placed his short staff on the ground, held his chest with one hand, and bowed.
He spoke slowly in a dry, unpleasant voice.
"Ahem..."
"Respect...Dear Sir, thank you for defeating those disgusting silk-spinning monsters..."
"Saved our lives..."
The old doghead spoke intermittently, and was not very proficient in human language.
Zong Shen smiled slightly and looked at its attributes.

(These are a group of poor guys. They were enslaved by giant dragons thousands of years ago. Now they live in various caves. They are very sensitive to minerals and are extremely enthusiastic about mining ores.)
(However, these guys are very timid, but they hate dwarfs and spellcasters who pretend to be sophisticated)
"Do you live here?"
Zong Shen quickly scanned the information, memorized some important information in his mind, and asked at the same time.
The old kobold prophet couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zong Shen's question.
Being willing to communicate means that the human being in front of you has no hostility.
It bowed and saluted again.
"Yes, my lord..."
"My tribe...is in this mine...these nasty web-weavers always treat us as food..."
Its words were intermittent, which made Zong Shen feel a little uncomfortable.
But Zong Shen smiled.
"Very good, you won't have to worry about these web-spinning monsters in the future, because you will become my trophies."
Hear Zong Shen's words.
The old kobold prophet was stunned.
It didn't refute or say anything more. It just turned around slowly and said "Wow wow wow" to the kobolds behind it.
All the kobolds were stunned...
"Dear Sir... You can't do this... We are weak and cannot help you with your worries..."
It knelt on the ground and prayed sincerely.
Zong Shen turned a blind eye to this and turned to give Colby a wink.
Suddenly, all the wolf cavalry pulled out two sabers and touched each other.
There was a metallic "clang" sound.
The dragonborn ranger also raised his longbow.
The threat is self-evident.
"Surrender or die, there is only one choice."
"I need you to collect ore for me. After I completely clear out this mine, you will be responsible for mining for me. As long as you surrender, not only will I not mistreat you, but I will treat you equally."
Zong Shen's voice came faintly.
Don't mix any personal emotions.
It's like narrating a trivial incident.
Hearing his words, the kobold prophet fell silent again, turned his head to the other kobolds and started to translate "Wow wow wow".
Among the kobolds, the only ones who can master human language are the wise prophets of the tribe.
The other kobolds seemed to have become a little excited after hearing the old prophet's narration, and began to argue.
After a few minutes, these kobolds seemed to reach a consensus.
They walked forward together and knelt down in front of Zong Shen.
"Sir, I...we are willing to serve you!"
The kobold prophet said respectfully.
Zong Shen nodded with satisfaction.
At a glance, the attributes of all kobolds are not very high.
It is even weaker than ordinary whiteboard wild monsters of the same level.
Every kobold has a [Loyalty] option.
But it's not high, only 50 points of loyalty, which is between surrender and neutrality.
It still needs to be well cultivated and cultivated.
"Get up, you will also be a member of the territory in the future, and the glory of the territory will shine on you."
"You will definitely be proud of today's decision in the future!"
Zong Shen said impassionedly.
He is very knowledgeable about this kind of lecturing.
As the saying goes, if you haven’t eaten pork, you haven’t seen a pig running?
From school to work, those leaders are the best teachers.
The old dog-headed prophet nodded hurriedly and fawningly.
The other kobolds didn't understand, so they just nodded along with the old kobold prophet...
Zong Shen laughed secretly in his heart.
This wave of deception was very successful.
The territory is short of manpower.
Although these kobolds are not very powerful in combat, they are perfect for mining ore resources.
These guys are born miners.
Zong Shen thought happily.
Then, he began to look at the items he got after killing the spider web monster.
[Spider-web monster’s sharp forelimbs x6]
[Spider-web monster’s poison sac x7]
[Spider-web Monster’s Tough Spider Web x3]
[Spider Web Monster’s Meat x28]
[Spider web monster’s eyes x18]
These are all materials obtained from decomposing the spider web monster's corpse.
Next, there are props and equipment.
[Reticulated Spider Armor (green) x1]
[Level 2 Market Construction Drawing x1]
[Soldier Strengthening Beads (Green) x2]
[Elementary Earth Rune x1]
[Primary element crystal x2]
[Avalon Reputation Book x2]
It's pretty good, in line with the explosion rate of elite-level monsters. In addition, Zong Shen has the [Blessing of the Elf Dead] buff. In addition to the offensive and defensive gains, it also increases the explosion rate of precious items by an additional 5%.
However, generally speaking, Zong Shen has discovered that the explosion rate of wild monsters in this world is really high.
Especially the recruitment scrolls. Zong Shen had noticed when he was going hunting that one hundred wild beasts could produce 6 to 7 recruitment scrolls.
Although they are all second-level soldiers.
But if this situation does not change.
I'm afraid it won't be long before foreign lords like Zong Shen have the strength to challenge the natives.
But Zong Shen always felt that things would not be that simple!
