Giant Bear Cave.

Otto and Sofia returned to this familiar place once again. Compared to the damp and wet Lizardman village, living here was obviously much more comfortable.

Mega Fatty went with Saru to conquer nearby monster clans.

They took away all the adult ogres and strong Lizardman warriors, leaving only a few adult lizardmen behind to catch fish from the Serpent Lizard Swamp for food.

Under the previous onslaught of the Thorn Legion, only the few swamps and other dangerous areas that had not been visited by the monster army could continue to produce food.

So, now they could only rely on the elderly and female lizardmen and the ogre cubs. Under Little Fatty’s leadership and centered around the Giant Bear Cave, they began to build new dwellings.

This was Otto’s request as he wanted to gather his followers together and manage them centrally.

He didn’t want to spend time and energy notifying and assembling these guys when he needed them.

Having worked as a miscellaneous helper under Sofia for a long time, Little Fatty seemed to have awakened a special talent.

He led the old or female lizardmen and ogre cubs to cut down trees, build houses, clear roads, and erect walls.

No matter what kind of work he did, he was always energetic and his methods were astonishingly smooth.

Of course, talent alone was not enough for many things, and many old lizardmen acted as teachers and provided him with many mature solutions.

This was also the biggest difference between lizardmen and other monster races.

They would spontaneously support the elderly and disabled members of their clan. These elderly lizardmen had weak combat abilities, but their years of experience had given them valuable knowledge and skills.

A few days passed, and a small monster town centered around the Giant Bear Cave was beginning to take shape.

Even female and elderly lizardmen had physical strength far beyond that of ordinary humans, let alone the strong ogre cubs.

Now Little Fatty was leading a group of strong female lizardmen to build a wall made of thick tree trunks in the outer area.

The wall was not yet completed, but Saru and Mega Fatty had already returned with the lizardman warriors and ogres.

And behind them, there followed a large group of other monsters, most of which were goblins, gnolls, and kobolds, as well as a few quilboars.

The total number of these monsters even surpassed that of the lizardmen and ogres combined. They were all the spoils gained from their conquests during these days.

Monster clans that were unwilling to submit faced their end under the ogres’ charges, and their territories naturally belonged to Otto.

Among them were also one or two monster clans belonging to the Thorn Legion. Saru did not spare them and made sure not to leave any survivors.

There were not many rich hunting grounds outside Nolan Forest, but with the acquisition of such a vast new territory, at least there was no need to worry about food for a short period of time.

The submissive monsters lay uneasily outside the unfinished wooden wall, and the Silver Dragon slowly descended. Otto had arrived.

Whether to accept the allegiance of these monsters depends entirely on his personal desires.

If Otto chose to refuse their allegiance, the ogres would be more than happy to turn them into rations and store them away.

When he first heard that Saru had brought him a batch of new followers, Otto had been somewhat expectant.

But after seeing these weak monsters, his feelings became a bit complicated.

Look at this group of monsters: goblins and kobolds? Their biggest use in Nolan Forest was to serve as food for other monsters.

Gnolls could be barely acceptable, as their individual combat power was even higher than that of the lizardmen; they had only depended on their instincts to fight due to their lack of intelligence.Among all, Otto was most satisfied with those few Quilboar. Although there were only a few of them, they still caught Otto’s attention immediately.

They were big in size, with bulging muscles, and both strength and intelligence were between Lizardmen and Ogres. If used properly, they should be able to handle many tasks.

Seeing Otto not speaking for a long time, these newly arrived monsters began to feel uneasy.

Some timid Goblins even let out a foul smell from their lower body, but some Goblins managed to stay calm.

Otto even found a Goblin with well-developed muscles, strong enough to be described as robust. However, after all, it was a goblin, so Otto didn’t pay much attention to it.

Otto looked at Saru, his question unclear: “So, these are the followers you mentioned?”

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Saru said: “In the outskirts of Nolan Forest, all I could find were these, oh, and a group of Werewolves with decent strength, but they ran too fast for us to catch.”

“Werewolves?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. These Quilboar claim to have been allies with the Werewolves once. As long as the time is right, they are willing to persuade those Werewolves to follow us on our behalf.”

Otto looked at the few Quilboar again. They were huddled together, and none of the other surrounding monsters dared to approach them, maintaining a certain distance on their own accord.

He nodded and continued asking: “How are you planning to assign these monsters?”

Otto didn’t want to waste his time arranging these monsters, so he left the bothersome task to Saru.

Perhaps sensing that Otto was somewhat dissatisfied, Saru explained: “Your Majesty, while these Goblins are weak, they have flexible fingers and good craftsmanship, allowing them to produce weapons.”

“Some Goblins even claim to be able to tame Wargs as mounts. If they can do this, then we can have our own cavalry, and the next time we encounter those Werewolves, we can make a difference!”

Nolan Forest was home to many types of wolves, mainly divided into ordinary giant wolves, Dire wolves, and Wargs.

During his time in the Arena, Otto had already seen these three types of canine monsters — among them, Dire wolves had the fastest speed and the most formidable physique, followed by Wargs.

There were many wolf packs in Nolan Forest; if all of them could be tamed, it would be enough to arm all Lizardmen and Gnolls that joined later.

Seeing that Otto was satisfied with the arrangements, Saru continued: “If all goes well, the Lizardmen will be converted into cavalry and long-range combatants, and Gnolls will replace the original Lizardmen as close-range combatants.”

“The Quilboar can be put to use in many ways, but it’s recommended to let them help the Goblins build our new residence and create more sophisticated weapons.”

Otto didn’t object to this suggestion, and Saru looked at a group of small and weak Kobolds.

Then Saru coldly said, “As for these Kobolds, they breed quickly and grow fast. They can be kept as food.”

At first, Otto was taken aback but soon understood. Although Kobolds could be considered an intelligent species, a normal person might not be able to accept such treatment.

However, Nolan Forest was a land of monsters, and in their eyes, eating the weaker ones was a natural thing.

Of course, Otto didn’t want to eat them, but at the same time, he wouldn’t object.

While saying these words, Saru was still watching Otto’s reaction.

If Otto were a normal Silver Dragon, he would definitely refuse at this point.

But Otto wasn’t a real Silver Dragon, and even he was not sure what kind of creature he was.

“Just do as you’ve suggested…”

That was Otto’s reply.
