Chapter 510: Resettlement
"How...how is this possible...you! Why do you have such power!"
The Green-footed Dragon Snake was whimpering in Nohir's hands in embarrassment. All individuals of this race have an indescribable pride. This kind of pride makes this guy still can't believe what happened to it until this moment. of everything.
But its pair of horns that were still tightly clamped by Nohir, the bones that were broken almost all over its body, and the huge sense of oppression that burst out in an instant, all told it, What is happening now is definitely not a dream.
‘I didn’t even faint. ’
Nohir was a little surprised. After suffering such severe injuries, even his mouth was cut into four parts, this guy could still continue to speak so energetically with his leaky mouth. This kind of perseverance is really surprising.
But no matter how tenacious this guy's perseverance is, in Nohir's eyes, it no longer threatens him at all, so he just threw the green-footed dragon snake on the ground aside, causing the monster to grin in pain for an instant, and then In the next moment, he quickly waved the giant ax in his right hand, and with a bang, he instantly struck the green-footed dragon snake in front of its head!
"My mental state is good, but my brain seems to be a little damaged."
The blue-footed dragon snake's vertical pupils were instantly tighter than a needle. Nohir's ax directly scared its soul back, and also made it understand the current situation in an instant. If it really happened this time, If you chop it on its own neck, it will immediately return to the Ten Thousand Beasts Garden and say goodbye to this beautiful world.
"Wait...wait! I surrender! I surrender! As long as you let me go, I will give you all the wealth I have accumulated over the past 30 years! If you want my soul, then I will also be with you Sign the contract! Please, sir! Let me go, I swear to the gods of Ten Thousand Beasts! "
The green-footed dragon snake endured the severe pain all over its body and tried its best to raise its head slightly, wanting to know whether the price it offered could impress this mysterious devil, but Nohir just mentioned it again without saying a word. The giant axe, the green-footed dragon snake closed its eyelids in despair, not daring to face the cruel fate that was coming next.
But what he didn't expect was that Nohill's ax didn't really fall. He first used the back of the battle ax to lift the head of the Green-footed Dragon Snake, so that the two could look up and down. They looked at each other from different angles, and then waited until the Green-footed Dragon Snake's spirit calmed down a little. Only then did Nohir slowly speak to the giant beast in front of him.
"As far as I know, your clan doesn't seem to have the habit of collecting gold and silver treasures, so as for the collection you mentioned in the past 30 years, even from the most optimistic point of view, I estimate that all you can come up with is some other things. It might be something like the skeleton armor left behind by the underground explorers, but I don’t like that kind of thing.”
"As for your soul, this suggestion is very interesting, but unfortunately, I am not actually a devil, so I currently do not have the ability to cast hell contracts on other creatures. Your suggestion is very tempting, but it is still It makes no sense."
The Green-footed Dragon Snake opened its eyes. Nohill's words seemed to reveal a lot of information, giving it hope of survival again. It took the time to speak again.
"No matter what it is! No matter what it is! As long as I can do it! As long as you can let me go! I am willing to agree to you! Please tell me your request! I can swear to the gods of the Ten Thousand Beast Garden, I will definitely Do your best to realize your demands and wishes!”
Nohir raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"It's really rare to see a blue-footed dragon snake with such a strong desire to survive. Doesn't the book say that your clan is extremely proud and would rather die than surrender? But how come I haven't discovered this in you?"
The corner of Nohir's mouth unconsciously raised a somewhat evil smile, but the Green-footed Dragon Snake dared not speak out in anger. After all, its name was now in Nohir's hand. No matter how this guy insulted it, it would You have to hold back. As for why the proud Green-footed Dragon Snake is willing to constantly belittle his dignity for the sake of life safety?
Well, there is nothing that can be done about it. After all, it is only 34 years old this year. Among the species of green-footed dragon snakes, it has only just reached adulthood. There is still a lot of time to enjoy, and the most important thing is, It has not yet completed the great mission of the Green-footed Dragon Snake clan to continue its descendants, and because of this, it cannot end its life so hastily! Even if you become begging for mercy for this, you won’t hesitate!
Nohill didn't know what the green-footed dragon snake was thinking, but he did have some questions that needed to be answered by this guy. It was indeed a good thing that this guy was so cooperative now.
"What's your name? Green-footed Dragon Snake."
Nohir put the battle ax on the monster's neck and asked in a friendly manner.
"…Gaspar."
"Gaspar? Well, depending on how you cooperate, I am willing to make a promise to you. As long as you can work hard to cooperate in the next question and answer session and explain all my questions clearly, I will let you go. A way out. Among all my enemies, this kind of treatment is unprecedented. I have to say that you are really lucky. "
Gaspar's throat twitched. Obviously, it didn't quite believe what Nohill said, but as of now, it could only follow this option.
"Hiss~ Please ask, sir, I will tell you everything."
Nohir nodded.
"Very good, then tell me now, apart from you, are there any other particularly difficult monsters entrenched here in this mine?"
Gaspar's heart trembled. He didn't understand why Nohir asked this question, but considering that he didn't seem to have the right to ask questions, he answered directly and simply.
"No more, sir. This area used to be my territory. Apart from me, I will not allow any other creature that can threaten me to continue to occupy here. Now, in addition to many underground giant bats and underground lizards, there are many underground giant bats and underground lizards in this nest. , except for the giant underground spiders, there are no other medium-to-large species, and the only reason these little monsters can survive is that they can serve as a high-quality food source to fill my unsatisfied belly. "
Nohir nodded with some understanding.
'There are no other dangerous species. This is similar to what I guessed. The blue-footed dragon snake has a very strong sense of territory. It is indeed unlikely that other dangerous creatures will appear in the area where they live. However, the materials left in this cave It was really rich, with bats, lizards, and even spiders. ’
'These monsters are all dangerous but definitely not deadly. Let's leave this area to them. This will not only exercise their group combat capabilities, but also allow them to practice independently. How can we allocate limited resources relatively evenly in the future? Generally speaking, we can achieve more with one stone. ’
Nohir focused his attention on the Green-footed Dragon Snake again. Gaspar's answer was very detailed. This detailed reply made him nod with satisfaction, but then he continued to ask.
"You should know that the cave you occupy used to be a mine mined by underground gnomes. Mines like this are almost all over the surrounding areas. Do you know that in these areas, especially in the southeast, Are there any places where particularly powerful monsters exist?”
Gaspar also answered immediately.
"I do know a little bit of news about this, but I only know the details of the other two lairs, which are only about ten kilometers away from here. One of the mines in the west has an observer beholder living in it, and the other The place was transformed into a stronghold by a group of tauren. There was not enough food in the cave for a while. I have been to those two places to look for food, but I have no idea what is in the mine lairs in other directions. ”
Gaspar honestly revealed all the information he knew, and Nohir also understood that this was all the information Gaspar could provide.
"The news is not particularly detailed, and there is no information in the direction I want to know, but you really didn't play any tricks, which is good. You tried to deceive me at first, and this move almost cost you your life, but now you His honesty gave you a chance to live."
Nohir thrust the battle ax aside, walked to Gaspar's side, and violently set its bones, allowing some of the limbs that were not seriously damaged to regain their original functions.
"Okay, now you should have recovered a little bit of your basic mobility. Since you can already walk - bang!"
Nohir clapped his hands lightly, and the next moment the applause sounded, Mizola came with a red teleportation light. Nohir pointed at the blue-footed dragon snake Gaspar, and then said Gaspar gestured to Mizola beside him.
"This is my attendant. Her true identity is a Kanbi from the Nine Hells and a highly skilled mage. So listen carefully, Gaspar, if you still want to live. , then honestly follow her instructions and sign an extremely unequal treaty that everyone loves to see. If you are really willing to use everything you have in exchange for your life safety, then show it to me now. Look."
Gaspar stood up tremblingly. He didn't expect that things would reach this point in the end. Although he had already said before that he was willing to use everything he had in exchange for his own life, when he really wanted to do it, he still subconsciously thought Going to regret it.
However, just when this idea came up, less than a second later, Gaspar's eyes involuntarily looked at the giant ax standing on the side. After being silent for three seconds, he made a very careful choice. In order to abide by the oath he had made before, he raised his uppermost, right forelimb and resolutely pressed his hand - paw print - on the contract.
"Wise choice."
Nohir smiled happily. In this day and age, it is really not easy to find such a villain who cherishes his life and keeps his promise. But now that the contract has been made, Gaspar will definitely not be able to break it again. What a waste.
Now, Nohill only needs to consider the last thing about this green-footed dragon snake, which is how to place him in the future, and in this regard, he has already had two ideas.
One is to keep the green-footed dragon snake here and live with the spawns who will move here soon. The advantage of this option is that it can allow Gaspar to help them gain a foothold here. At the same time, it can also serve as an alternative eye to help you monitor and control these vampire spawns to prevent them from losing control if they are left unattended.
But there are disadvantages, the main reason is that Gaspard's injuries are a bit serious. With all the injuries on his body, even with the help of healing magic, it is absolutely impossible for this guy to recover his combat effectiveness in one or two weeks.
Coincidentally, this period of time is just the most difficult time for the derivatives to adapt to the Underdark and struggle to survive in this unfamiliar environment. Leaving Gaspard here will not bring any help to the derivatives. On the contrary, at least in the initial period of time, it will become a burden to them. For this reason, Noshiel is not inclined to this choice.
As for the other option, it is to give it to King Snitik. The Green-footed Dragon Snake is an ancient weapon designed by the Storm Giants in ancient times to deal with dragons. The actual combat effectiveness of an adult Green-footed Dragon Snake is actually comparable to that of a white dragon of the same age, and even far exceeds it in terms of IQ.
If such a powerful green-footed dragon snake is given to King Snitik, such a generous gift will definitely bring the underground dwarves and their side closer to each other to the greatest extent. At the same time, this generous act can also show Noshir's strength and magnanimity. People will know what the name Noshir means. This generous gift will also be rewarded with rich rewards and will definitely make this alliance more stable.
Considering this aspect, Noshir thinks that the second idea is undoubtedly better.
Although the green-footed dragon snake is precious and can be regarded as powerful among ordinary monsters, if Noshir really wants to find a qualified security for these derivatives, then he has no need to stick to such a monster. After all, this is the dark region, and all kinds of monsters are flying all over the sky. As long as Noshir is given a little time, he can definitely find a guardian who is far more suitable than the green-footed dragon snake.
‘…Forget it, just leave it here for now. After finishing those chores, I will consider the specific implementation process. As for the period when I am busy, Gaspar will be left to Mizora to guard and take care of. ’
Noshier shook his head and temporarily decided the direction of Gaspar’s future fate, but in addition to these things, he still had more things waiting to be solved and dealt with.
Noshier, who came out of the mine, announced directly to Asdaren and the others that he had conquered the most powerful monster in this nest, so that they could freely select a large number of people to settle here as soon as possible, and he naturally flew quickly towards another mine.
After that, it took only less than five minutes for Noshier to successfully come to another abandoned mine nest, and in this abandoned mine, he also successfully saw what kind of monster occupied this cave.
