In the Thorn Nest, Cassiopeia lay on her meager pile of treasures, extremely dissatisfied.
She really wanted to swallow these two useless creatures in anger, but her reason told her that she couldn’t.
Now facing the threat of the Red Dragon, she couldn’t afford to lose Kamia, her powerful henchman.
Saru knelt on the ground with his head bowed, beside him was his Giant Eagle and half of the burned Troll.
Ordinary creatures would not have survived such injuries.
But for this Troll, as long as there was enough food, it could heal itself after a while, and might even become stronger due to mutation.
This mission had not gone smoothly, and the main reason for such a situation was Cassiopeia’s mistaken judgment of Otto’s strength.
But for an Evil Dragon to admit its mistake was no different than trying to ask her to share her treasures with others.
Lizardman Saru exaggerated the situation, putting all the blame on the foolish Kamia, and continuously praised Otto’s strength.
In short, he made it clear that his failure had nothing to do with himself.
Even if Kamia wasn’t seriously injured and unable to speak, with his pitiful brain capacity, he wouldn’t know how to argue.
As for Saru and his Lizardman Clan, Cassiopeia didn’t value them much. Lizardmen were of average strength, their numbers were not large, and they could not play a significant role in the struggle against the Red Dragon.
So eating Saru wouldn’t matter much, but if she let Kamia go, there really wasn’t any reason to dispose of this Lizardman who had completely shifted the blame.
After all, she had to consider the opinions of other Clans, not all monsters were brainless.
Although Cassiopeia claimed herself to be the master of Nolan Forest, there were still many monster Clans in the forest that didn’t obey her.
Even her pile of treasures looked quite shabby, and you could even find a considerable amount of copper and unrefined gemstones inside.
To be a dragon in such a state was truly humiliating.
After hearing Saru’s account, Cassiopeia composed herself and tried to speak calmly: “So, is that young dragon very strong?”
Of course, she wouldn’t fully believe what the Lizardman said, but one thing was certain – the young dragon’s strength must be far superior to Kamia’s.
If she could control that young dragon, the Wyverns under the Red Dragon wouldn’t put so much pressure on her.
Saru nodded repeatedly and then promised: “But it’s no match for your Thorn Legion!”
Cassiopeia believed this too. After years of management, her followers had reached a considerable level, even though they lacked top-notch power. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have beaten the Red Dragon so severely a few days ago.
But later, that Red Dragon gained many followers by chance, and now it even coveted her territory and wealth.
Is it really appropriate for her to waste her troops on a young dragon at this critical moment? If the Red Dragon happens to attack, it would be a big problem.
Soon, Cassiopeia had an idea. She gave a piece of her scale to the Lizardman and said, “Saru, I want you to go as my envoy again…”
Although the Lizardman was reluctant, he had no choice but to obey the Evil Dragon at this moment.
At the same time, he was also thinking about his own way out.
He didn’t have much loyalty to Cassiopeia, only obeying her for the sake of his Clan’s survival.
If Cassiopeia lost to the Red Dragon or was clearly at a disadvantage in the upcoming battle, he would betray the Green Dragon without hesitation and join the Red Dragon’s side.
This was a very normal move for monsters…
…
In the Giant Bear Cave, Otto devoured the half-body remains of Giant Troll Kamia left behind under Sofia’s disdainful gaze, as he coveted its extraordinary recovery ability.
The taste was not good, like burnt meat, and had a sour, disgusting smell.
Soon, the familiar information in the strange Light Ball in his brain emerged.
“Successfully devoured Giant Troll leader, obtained Advanced Regeneration…”
“Obtained Intermediate Mutation (Uncontrollable)…”
After considering it, Otto discarded the ability of Intermediate Mutation, as it was an uncontrollable ability.
He didn’t want to grow weird, uneven limbs like the Giant Troll.
This time, gaining the ability sent him into a brief slumber. When he woke up, he found that the structure of his body seemed to have changed.
First, he cut a small wound on himself with his sharp claws, and the wound healed quickly, visible to the naked eye.
Otto nodded, very satisfied with this. With this almost perverse ability, it would be of great help in enhancing his combat abilities.
At the same time, he recalled the previous battle, briefly putting aside the Troll, Sofia’s performance was also outstanding, but what concerned him the most was the Lizardman.
In the beginning, Otto didn’t pay much attention to the Lizardman; Saru, whose body length was not even half of Kamia’s, indeed lacked intimidation, but his actual accomplishments in battle surprised Otto.
The spells Saru used were not strong, mostly low-level ones, but his techniques and timing were very skilled and practical.
Otto had to admit that Saru had some skills. Most monsters were reckless, and such intelligent ones were rare.
Sorting out his thoughts, Otto decided to leave the cave with Sofia. They had repelled the invaders before, but no one could guarantee there would be no follow-up attacks.
It was at this time that Otto remembered why the atmosphere in Kor Town had become so low.
“Is it the dragon’s followers…?”
From the interactions between the two monsters, it seemed highly likely. Although he didn’t know whether they were followers of the Red Dragon or the Green Dragon, either would be troublesome.
So, for safety’s sake, he thought it better to find another hiding place sooner rather than later.
But before he could move, the Wild Beast Heart’s premonition started again.
This time there were still two targets, one very familiar, like the Lizardman who had escaped before.
As for the other one, it didn’t seem very strong in the feedback from the Wild Beast Heart, and wouldn’t pose an effective threat to him.
But Otto didn’t let his guard down because of this. After all, the Wild Beast Heart was just a low-level ability from the Minotaur, and could only provide reference.
“Sofia, get ready for battle!”
Sofia nodded, gripping her Magic Wand. After the previous battle, she was a little excited to be able to help Otto.
At this time, Otto’s thoughts were simple. If the Wild Beast Heart’s warning was wrong and the incoming person was very powerful, he would immediately take Sofia and fly away from here.
