lizard lord

Chapter 10 Negotiations
Staring at the luminous dust floating in the air, Tang Zhao protected his prey under his body, and the scales all over his body exploded.

Some people think that the most terrifying thing is the unknown, and there is a reason for that.

Facing these artifacts was more stressful than facing an angry bull elephant, which would only make him tense, but not the former.

[Whether it is a human or a ghost, we have to face it. I hope my inference is correct. They don't have much malice towards me. 】

Just as Tang Zhao was struggling, he heard a fierce quarrel between the dust.

The tone of voice was very special, and it felt like it was not the same language as those wolves spoke before, but Tang Zhao could still understand it normally.

"Is your head frightened by the Yit monster? Go to the beast for help?!"

"Haven't I done it before? Quails and turtledoves carried me to germinate plants, but the communication object was changed from birds to reptiles."

"That's not a bird that eats millet, but a carnivorous lizard that drinks blood. It's not necessarily safer than the Yit monster!"

"Then what can our strong fighters do? Rely on your short bow and long sword? Or rush out of the spider web of the Yit monster, go through the woods infested by lycanthropes, and finally go to the village and ask the farmer for help?!"

This time the other party did not refute, probably because of lack of confidence.

"Then how do we communicate with it? Neither Wood Clan language nor Common Language can understand it. Your Detect Thought Spell is just like my true vision. It needs to touch the other party's body to release it. This is quite difficult."

"I can talk to animals, so I can use this."

"It's hard for you to ask the turtledove to fetch the acorns for you, and you want to ask the beast to help us kill it monsters, save it.

You're wasting time, the Eit monster is very close to here, and it's about to catch up. Once we get stuck here, it's hard for us to escape! "

"Quiet! You violent idiot, let me think with my head and don't disturb me."

"I think your brain has been corrupted by poetry and sweet words, why don't you discuss the true meaning of love and peace with it monsters!"

Tang Zhao, who was listening, probably understood, and immediately realized that this was an opportunity.

He smoothed the exploded scales, pushed out the corpse of the carnivorous beetle from under his body, pulled out the fattest part of its body, and placed it on the grass in front of him.

At the same time, he lay down on the ground and rolled over to reveal his soft and defenseless abdomen, expressing that he had no malice.

It is really difficult for reptiles to express their emotions. Only those who have understood them carefully can understand some body language, but showing their belly is one of the best body language in nature. I believe these creatures living in the forest will not understand it.

They were obviously also staring at Tang Zhao's every move. Seeing his behavior, all the creatures hidden in the dust were stunned for a few seconds.

"Is it... showing favor to us?"

"It seems like this"

"It's obviously not normal to be able to understand the language of the Wood tribe. It's better to say that a lizard can understand the language directly, which is abnormal enough in itself."

"Well that lizard down there, if you understand, turn over and get down?"

Of course Tang Zhao followed suit, which made the other party amazed again.

"The goblin will reach an agreement with creatures such as the wolf, and the wolf can understand and even speak the goblin language. It is said that they also have their own wolf language."

"We're not goblins, and we hope he's different from a wolf. I don't want to be eaten just because I can't feed it."

"Can you get up and turn around again?"

Tang Zhao was a little impatient, but he still did it.

Another voice interjected at this moment: "Then roll three times on the ground, okay?"

Tang Zhao's tail was thrown out like a whip, and a piece of insect carapace flew into the sky.

Reject animal performances, start with him.Communication belongs to communication, and playing him like a monkey is not acceptable.

"Ah, it seems to be angry."

"Pleasure idiots don't add to the mess!"

The arguing in the dust never stopped, and three to five minutes later, two fantastic-looking creatures emerged from the dust.

A humanoid creature about thirty centimeters long, with pointed ears and wings, like a fairy in a story.

One is a beautiful woman with gorgeous butterfly wings, wearing a delicate long skirt cut from leaves, wearing a wreath on her head, and holding a short stick made of a branch.

The other is a man with a slightly vicissitudes of life, with two pairs of wings like a dragonfly, wearing a simple armor made of leather and acorn shell, equipped with a long stone sword and a short bow.

I don't know if they were the same kind of creature, but they obviously didn't fight each other, and they stared at each other unwillingly. In the end, the woman was slightly better and came to a position three or four meters in front of Tang Zhao.

"Listen, I know it's a bit difficult to understand. If you can understand, just open your mouth and I'll know."

She spoke slowly, and tried to simplify her words and sentences, for fear that Tang Zhao would not understand.

Tang Zhao couldn't communicate more efficiently with the other party, so he opened his mouth to express his agreement.

"I'm going to use a spell called Talk to Animals now. After using it, you can talk to me, okay?"

Tang Zhao opened his mouth and leaned down to express his approval.

The other party smiled and nodded, and a stream of light flashed in the staff.

"Now, you should be able to talk to me, can you try?"

[I'm trying, but to make a long story short, I smell a little bit, from that etter monster you're talking about. 】

The accent is completely different from the previous life, hoarse and blunt, but a voice that can make people understand is a good voice.

The smile on the goblin's face froze immediately - on the one hand, it was because of surprise, Tang Zhao's speech was not as difficult as that of a beast, but it was more because of the Yit monster.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, I don't need to lie in this kind of place. It's not good for me if you all die."

"Understood, can you let me communicate with them first, we have to consider countermeasures."

"Of course, but let's talk about it first. If you want me to deal with that kind of it monster, I can accept it. But I need your full assistance, and at the same time, I will distribute the spoils of that thing."

The goblin nodded emphatically, expressing her understanding, and immediately flew to the position of the glowing dust.

There is also a reason why Tang Zhao agreed so happily. The Yit monster (spider monster) came chasing these goblins. It is rare to leave the forest and lose the field and first-hand advantage. This is the best opportunity Tang Zhao can find in the short term.

With the enemy at hand, the goblins quarreled very quickly this time, but this time they knew that Tang Zhao could understand what they were saying, and obviously used some tricks, Tang Zhao couldn't hear what they were talking at all.

The two goblins soon flew in front of Tang Zhao again.

"We accept all your conditions. The three pixie spellcasters and eleven goblin fighters will fully cooperate with you, but we want to use the spells of true vision and thought detection on you, can you accept it?"

The reason why they dared to make such a quick decision was also because of the existence of these two spells.

One, as the name suggests, can read the other person's thoughts, and the other can judge the other person's emotional state and good or evil. To put it bluntly, it is mind reading.

If the other party agrees, everything is easy to talk about. If they don't agree, they will just leave without delay.

"No problem, come closer and use it on me. I won't resist, but it's best to let your people prepare their weapons. The enemy may emerge at any time."

Tang Zhao understood that the other party had concerns, and he didn't mind spending some time on it.

If he feels that the opponent is doing something wrong when casting the spell, he can directly bite the opponent to death.

He doesn't understand magic, and to be honest, he can't fully trust these goblins. The other party may play tricks, but he doesn't want to miss this opportunity to kill it monsters.

Not only a few hundred catties of meat and a blood core, but after the Yit monster died, he dared to go deep into the woods to hunt without worrying about being attacked.

There are so many giant insects in the woods that Tang Zhao can get enough blood cores in three or four days.

Even if he is manipulated by magic, he believes that the dark green emblem can help him eliminate negative effects when he evolves next time.

It is risky to cooperate with these goblins, but it is something that has to be done. In the future, he will have to rely on these intelligent creatures for more things.

After obtaining permission, the two goblins came to Tang Zhao's left and right sides, and each stretched out a hand to touch his body. After waiting for more than ten seconds without feeling anything, they withdrew their hands one after another.

"no problem."

"It's fine on my side, I'm sorry to do this, but it's the only way we can."

"Since this is the case, come someone to follow me. I need to know the specific situation of the matter, and the remaining one will go back to form the team."

The two looked at each other at the same time, and finally chose to follow suit. The goblin in armor went back to form a team, and the goblin who could talk to animals stayed to talk to him.

"I'm curious about a lot of things, but let's talk about the strange thing first, how can I deal with it?"
-
The goblin speaks occasionally a bit long-winded, but he can still listen.

The Yit monster in their mouth is a humanoid spider monster that lives deep in the woods and knows how to herd spiders.

All the information is consistent with Tang Zhao's knowledge, at least he did not find the wrong opponent.

Not small in size, not low in IQ, has poisonous fangs, can spray spider silk to control opponents, and is a calm hunter with keen senses.

It's good news for Tang Zhao that he doesn't know how to use magic. He is very experienced in hand-to-hand combat.

They are dark and evil creatures, very fond of preying on goblins, those pixies (butterfly wings) and goblins (dragonfly wings) are the few survivors, their populations have been eaten by many.

Tang Zhao had seen a lot of trees covered with spider webs in the woods before. In fact, they were the traces of it monsters preying on goblins. The spider webs were to prevent the winged goblins from flying away.

After confirming the opponent's basic information, Tang Zhao began to study his teammates.

Frankly speaking, these goblins are very, very poor at fighting.

Goblins don't use much magic, and their bodies aren't very strong.

A body of thirty to forty centimeters doesn't have many muscles, so naturally it doesn't have a huge enough strength to make people eye-catching.

They were still using stone swords, which had even worse penetrating power. Coupled with those powerful short bows, they might not be able to hurt it monsters.
