Chapter 66, Swamp Fishman

The wailing ratman finally died under the claws of the dragon beast.

The ratmen around him also ran away madly.

Huo did not get any useful information from the newly appointed rat warlord, even though this guy was not going to keep any secrets in order to survive.

But unfortunately, the communication between ratmen and lizardmen was not so easy, and the crazy begging for mercy and the information revealed would only be a sharp and rapid hissing in Huo's ears.

Huo only knew that this guy might be a small commander in the rat army, but he was not the rat general he was looking for.

In the piercing hissing, the noisy ratman was lost.

The dragon beast took off again and chased the rat army that was gradually going away.

The chase continued. In order to completely leave the rat war behind, the dragon beast hovering over the rat army reduced its frequency of appearance.

Instead, warriors or residents from the lizardmen villages and gathering places scattered around the wetland were recruited in large numbers.

And began to chase the ratmen fleeing in the wetland.

Huo found the newly elected leader of the dogmen and gave him a choice he could not refuse.

Recruit a force of more than 10,000 and rush to the designated location to intercept the fleeing ratmen. If he did, he would take back his decision regardless of success or failure.

And accept the dogmen back into the three-tribe alliance.

The dogman leader agreed without hesitation.

And not only that, under the uneasy trend in his heart, the original inhabitants of this wetland, the original owners of the hatching pool currently occupied by the lizardmen.

The group of swamp fishmen who were driven to the edge of the wetland were also found by Huo.

Swamp fishmen, a group of weak races with short stature, slimy skin, human-shaped bodies and strange fish heads that were spliced ​​together abruptly.

Their ecological niche is not much different from that of the ratmen. Compared with their relatives in the sea, the Naga and mermaids with widespread legends, this group of weird and weak swamp fishmen is really hard to look at.

Whether it is combat power or more.

Except for the equally powerful reproductive ability and the occasional one or two sea priests in the huge base, there is no advantage.

So when the lizardmen, snakemen and dog-headed people broke into this wetland together, this group of weak guys were expelled without surprise.

These guys were not even really regarded as a threat by the lizardmen.

They could only retreat to the worst place in the wetland, living in the small rotten swamps where the stench was so strong that even the lizardmen were unwilling to set foot.

But now, in order to deal with the huge number of ratmen, and also because the lizardmen, who should have been the dominant force in this initial scale, were seriously injured in the great expedition of the ratmen, and could not provide more troops.

These ignored swamp fishmen also returned to the sight of fire again.

When the fire riding the black dragon beast fell from the sky, these ugly fishmen did not even think of resisting, and chose to surrender in a huge crowd.

Even the sea priests among the swamp fishmen decisively chose to surrender.

In fact, these guys thought about these things when the lizardmen broke in. It was not a bad thing to surrender if they couldn't win. Just like the big lizard said, the scaly races should unite, and the sea priests unexpectedly agreed with this.

However, even though they still had some small scales that had not faded, they were not considered as scaly races by the lizardmen at all, and were not taken seriously at all. They were driven into this harsh and rotten swamp without any resistance.

Even though these guys knew a little bit of the variant snake language, it seemed to prove that these guys were indeed involved with the scaly race to some extent.

After all, Naga and snakemen are closely related, and fishmen and Naga also have many connections and entanglements.

However, the snake people refused to admit it, so they were directly expelled into the Rotten Swamp.

Now, things have taken a turn for the better. Under the pressure of the rat people, Huo accepted this group of guys. As a price, the beliefs of all the swamp fish people will change in the future, and the appropriate swamp fish people will be organized into the auxiliary army of the Wetland Kingdom.

At the same time, the sea priests among these swamp fish people will immediately pull out an army to rush to the battlefield.

Yes, with the weakening of the power of the lizard people, this multi-ethnic tribe is more like a kingdom.

However, this is also a helpless move. After two major wars with the rat people, the lizard people directly lost two rounds of manpower that they had grown with great difficulty, even though Li Sheng, as a god, has always been watching them and has spared no effort to provide help.

The lizard people will also experience a long rest again.

After finishing these things, Huo rode the black dragon beast again to chase the rat army running in the wetland.

At the same time, a mighty army recruitment also began in this wetland.

In the extreme time, a large number of gnolls who had just been used as slaves were released, and after a simple observation, they were incorporated into the army in the loose selection. They began to march under the leadership of their newly elected leader, a noisy and annoying gnoll leader.

As a part of the three-tribe alliance, the gnoll tribe has the largest number in this wetland kingdom, and even so, it is not much different in high-end power.

Facts have proved that dragons do have eyes to discover beauty.

The gnoll tribe is a real dragon vein race. While having good fertility, the probability of dragon vein gnolls appearing among the gnolls is also not low.

The large number of dragon vein gnolls makes the gnoll tribe not too weaker than the lizardmen and snakemen in terms of combat power.

It's just a pity that they were easily suppressed by fire. Not long ago, most of the gnolls were imprisoned as slaves.

Because the dragon vein kobolds among the kobolds did not resist at all, or in other words, Huo had excluded those dragon vein kobolds from the ranks of suppression from the beginning.

The status of the dragon vein kobolds did not change, so naturally there was no huge resistance, and at this time the lizardmen already had a real dragon.

Even if it was just a dragon beast, it was enough for these guys who worshipped dragons extremely.

The dragon vein kobolds easily chose to surrender, and the ordinary kobolds who occupied the majority were easily suppressed by the snake people in a confused state.

However, being suppressed may not be a bad thing in some cases.

Because in this way, the kobolds who were hastily captured did not join the war with the ratmen at all, and the kobolds naturally did not suffer any huge losses.

So the newly elected kobold leader was able to agree to Huo's request very readily.

Because he could indeed pull out 10,000 kobolds to reorganize the army.

On the other side, the swamp fishmen army also set out from the rotten swamp. The number of troops prepared by this group of guys is even more exaggerated.

A large group of nearly 20,000 swamp fishmen came out of the rotten swamp.

Although the appearance of this group of troops is really not good, the army seems to have no formation, chaotic command, and the fishmen seem to have no combat effectiveness, stupid, and even there are not many proper spears. Wooden sticks, big fish bones?

There are also some familiar things.

Some big bone sticks, and some skeleton helmets, but those skeleton helmets are a little familiar, wait? Aren’t those the skeletons of swamp fishmen!

This group of guys actually used the skeletons of their dead companions as weapons and protective gear, fish heads as helmets, arm bones, leg bones, and fish bones as weapons.

This... can’t be said to be impossible. In a sense, it is much better than the equipment of the rats who were smashed with stones and bitten with teeth at the beginning.

It's hard to describe, but no matter what, the number is definitely enough.

Add to that the swamp murlocs that stayed behind, and it makes people wonder how such a small, stinking swamp can support so many murlocs.
