A baby dragon has built a nest outside the Novice Village

Chapter 43 Everything in the world has value

When Farui woke up, it was already a few days later.

The first thing he saw when he woke up was Lanya, who was tied up at the entrance of the lair. Beside her, Krigo was staring at him warily.

"Master, I found this sneaky guy who seemed to want to sneak into your lair and steal your treasure."

Apparently, there was some misunderstanding between Krigor and Lania.

"I dare not deal with this kind of sinner who offended the master privately. I ask the master to decide what kind of punishment to give her."

Fari was glad that he was a dragon. The man and the goblin in front of him could not tell his current expression from the head of his dragon.

Although the contract did not stipulate anything about the treatment that Lannia should enjoy, Lannia's current condition made Fary feel a little embarrassed.

Lanya had a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth, which looked like it was torn from the servant Krigo, although Krigo and the other goblins were no longer as dirty as before. But after all, Lanya was a guest.

Fari stood up, walked to Lania, hooked his claws, and cut the rope on her. Seeing Fari's actions, Krigo knew that he had probably done something wrong.

"Don't let your instincts control you."

Even she could no longer maintain her previous expressionless look.

The sound came from Lanya's stomach. In the past few days, in order to prevent her from escaping, Kriego only gave her very little food.

"This can't go on like this."

Fary began to notice something unusual about himself.

She was not too angry or surprised. In her human cognition, dragons were like this. They did not understand or care about the needs of mortals. Even the most human-friendly dragons could not truly empathize with humans.

"No, how could I become like this?"

You can tell from Lannia's reaction.

"Feel sorry."

After becoming a dragon, he seemed to be more and more indifferent to these mortals, and his sense of time became weaker. In short, he was getting further and further away from his former human self. He was becoming more and more like a real evil dragon.

Fari's heart was bleeding, but the treatment Lanya suffered was a bit excessive.

Lanya didn't say anything, but just let out a long sigh of relief.

Fari didn't want to really turn into a dragon from the inside out, because that would make him feel like he was no longer himself.

"Well, I can charge you one less magic item as payment."

He carefully pulled the rag out of Lanya's mouth, then silently walked to the side, squatted down, and waited to receive Fari's punishment.

Even Fari couldn't be so shameless as to pretend nothing had happened.

"Take her to get something to eat. She will be staying in your camp during this time. Please try to meet her needs."

He had not completely considered Lania's food, clothing, housing and transportation in the lair, and had originally intended to leave it to the goblins. After the goblins cooperated with the village, their living conditions were pretty good, and at least Lania would not suffer any hardship.

He suddenly thought of the words of his mother in this world. Now it seems that what she said was not only to let Farui restrain the instinctive impulses that originated from his blood, but also had more profound meaning.

However, after returning to the nest, Farui quickly forgot about it.

But there was no time to think about these things now, he had to think about the present. He had already heard a cooing sound.

Krigo nodded his head but did not leave immediately.

"What else?"

Krigo took a small bag from his belt and placed it respectfully on the ground in front of him.

"Master, this is the tribute during this period."

This tribute was much less than the previous ones. "What's going on?"

The number of goblins is still growing, and the goods they produce are increasing every day. This is the first time that the amount of tribute has decreased.

"Master, many of the nearby villages that used to trade with us have been destroyed, and the recent income is not as good as expected."

Krigo lowered his head even more. The tribute was reduced, and he had mistaken Farri's guests for thieves before. Krigo felt that he would definitely be punished.

That would have been true if he were facing an ordinary dragon, but Farri just sighed.

He was aware of a desire deep within himself to torture the goblin who had not brought more tribute.

"Is this the instinct brought by the dragon bloodline?"

This desire flashed across his mind, and Fary noticed it and easily suppressed this instinct that came from his blood.

"How many people can your camp spare?"

Fari lightly picked up the purse that Krigo had placed on the ground and threw it casually onto the pile of treasure in the nest.

Seeing that Farui didn't seem to intend to punish him, Krigo felt somewhat relieved.

"Master, without affecting the labor, we can extract about 500 ordinary goblins and more than 20 mutants."

"Arm them up."

Ordinary goblins are just weak creatures, and even a first-level warrior can easily take down four or five of them.

But when the number reaches 500, and they are armed goblins, they are no longer a force to be underestimated. Not to mention there are more than 20 mutants.

With their awakened blood, most mutants can have the first or second level of monsters. Together with 500 ordinary goblins, they are enough to compete with the regular hundred-man team of Sagat City.

The number of goblins is still growing rapidly. Their current camp is fully operational, but it has only been established for a little over a year. More goblins will be born in the future.

“Safety is also a commodity. There should be some villages around that have not been destroyed. They should be in great need of this commodity.”

Krige quickly understood what Farri meant.

"But those villages can't come up with much gold because of the undead."

Krigo looked embarrassed. He was aware of the situation in the nearby villages. Because of the undead, trade in this area was almost at a standstill and no one had much gold coins.

"Besides gold coins, there are many other things that can be traded."

Fari spoke slowly.
"Yes, in addition to gold coins, there are many other things that can be traded, such as land, minerals, technology, knowledge, and intelligence. These things can be exchanged for more..."

Krigo became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Okay, step back and entertain my guests."

Watching the man and the goblin slowly leave, Fari flapped his wings and flew up.

These undead are becoming an increasingly greater threat. If we don't intervene, they will sooner or later wander around their nest.

Even if there seems to be some strange characteristics near his nest, it is difficult for powerful monsters to detect this place.

But Ferry did not intend to bet everything on this so-called characteristic that he did not know much about.

The most fundamental thing is to deal with these undead spirits and the dark forces behind them.

Fari flew high into the sky and looked down. With such a large-scale undead disaster, there must be more than one necromancer creating undead creatures.

Things would be much easier if we could find the lair where they create the undead.

"Why are there so many adventurers?"
