I am a god in another world
Chapter 646 The Value of Thun Swamp
The relationship between the Lizard Queen and the Soul Naga just met the conditions for opening this special realm, so Gavin naturally took the opportunity to start it. In order to speed up the process, Gavin did not hesitate to consume a lot of Shadow Power. Anyway, he now has enough Shadow Power, and wasting a little bit is not as painful as at the beginning.
In this realm, after being killed by the Lizard Queen, the Soul Naga will not suffer any substantial losses, and can be resurrected quickly, and the damage suffered is not limited to the body, but will directly penetrate the soul.
The Soul Naga Alhashan has been tortured to death by the Lizard Queen countless times, and his spirit has completely collapsed. This is not purgatory, but it is countless times more terrible than purgatory.
Compared with endless torture, what is freedom?
Besides, he has no freedom here. Instead of this, it is better for the Soul Stone to be controlled by someone, at least he does not need to face the Lizard Queen, a big pervert who hates him to the bone.
"As long as you are willing to hand over the Soul Stone and help me control the Thun Swamp and the lizardmen army there, I will resurrect you and make you and Kulgore never meet again." Gavin directly revealed his true intention.
It is more efficient to surrender with internal and external cooperation. Moreover, the Spirit Naga is the real ruler of the Lizard King's Court. His understanding of Thun Swamp and the lizardmen is far better than that of Kulgore, the Lizard Queen, because only by making himself useful to her can he get closer to the center of power and find an opportunity to destroy the Soul Stone.
"I am willing, I am willing, I am willing." Without saying a word, the Spirit Naga directly mobilized all his strength, and wisps of black mist floated out of him and gathered in front of him.
A black crystal stone the size of an ostrich egg, from nothing to something, what else could it be if not his Soul Stone?
"Please accept it, Lord. From now on, Lord, you are my master. I am willing to serve you with all my life's learning. It is my unshirkable responsibility to present the Thun Swamp to you." The spirit Naga took the initiative to present his soul stone to Gavin. The smile on his face was as flattering and humble as he could be. The soul stone floating in the air was constantly presented to Gavin, just like a person who wants to ask for a favor and gives a gift, fearing that the person in question will not accept it.
And a few days ago, in order to regain the soul stone, the spirit Naga can be said to have exhausted his life's energy and learning, which has to be said to be a great irony.
Gavin did not reach out to take it. The heavy shadow power entangled and swallowed the soul stone directly. As soon as he touched it, he knew that this soul stone was real.
Before returning, Gavin specially collected and made up for the information of the unique magic race of Naga.
This race can be said to be immortal, and it is even difficult to kill them with ordinary methods because they can be resurrected infinitely.
The only way to kill them is to use the Nine Rings Prayer to block their infinite resurrection with precise words after killing them. After they die, they will not leave a physical body, but only an egg-shaped stone of different colors (depending on the species of the Naga). This stone is the soul stone of the Nagas, also known as the Naga Stone. These stones are natural magic equipment that can allow the holder to use some of the abilities of the Naga before his death. If special magic craftsmanship is used, it can even summon a completely reset and loyal Naga of the same species, but the new Naga does not have all the memories of the previous one and the knowledge and abilities learned after birth, only the most basic racial characteristics and abilities.
Take the spirit naga in front of us for example. Now he is a legendary spirit naga. If he is killed and reset, he will only have a dozen life dice left. Other abilities are unknown for the time being. At least his Mordenkainen Great Disintegration will definitely be lost, because this is not a spell-like ability that naga is born with, but he studied it after birth.
In short, for naga, the soul stone is their core, and the body is just a carrier shaped by magic.
Once the soul stone falls into the hands of others, they will be controlled by others.
There are generally two ways to obtain the soul stone of a spirit naga.
The first is to control him and use magic to forcibly extract his soul consciousness and condense it into a soul stone. However, this method requires strong professionalism. There is no knowledge in this aspect in the information about naga collected by Gavin, especially extracting the soul stone from the body of a legendary spirit naga. The difficulty is probably very high. Even if he is now under Gavin's complete control, rebirth through shadow and rebirth of the soul stone of the naga are completely two completely different concepts.
The second method is to let the Naga condense willingly and hand over their soul stones, just like what is happening now.
It makes no difference whether this willingness is out of respect or fear. Compared with respect, fear is simpler and more brutal, and it works faster.
The only sequelae is that his loyalty is forced. As long as there is a chance, he will stab himself without hesitation in order to regain his freedom, just like he did to the Lizard Queen.
Gavin knocked and warned: "If you try to do something wrong or don't work hard, don't blame me for sending you back and imprisoning you with Kulgor. You only have one chance, and the next time it will be permanent."
"No, absolutely not. I know the location of all the treasures in Kurgol, and I know all the secrets of Thun Swamp. I will dig them all out and offer them to the lord, as long as I can make that damn fat dragon I will do my best to deal with all the things that hurt me," the spirit naga vowed, and if it weren't for the fact that he had no hands, his chest would probably be pounding loudly.
Just like the Lizard Queen vented her anger on him, when the spirit naga could not blame Gavin, he could only direct his hatred at the Lizard Queen. On his own, he obviously had no way to cause physical harm to the Lizard Queen. So, We can only start from the soul. For a giant dragon, touching its wealth is the most fatal harm to her soul.
"Tell me what you know about Thun Marsh, especially how many lizardmen are controlled by the Lizard King? Apart from you and Kurgol, are there any other core figures? If I want to take charge of the lizards Wang Ting, where do you think I should start?" Gavin cannot deny the oaths of the spirit naga. Anyone who believes in these chaotic and evil oaths will be close to death. He only uses them, but never believes them. They use their suggestions carefully rather than blindly adopt them. Not to mention him, even the six-armed snake demon and Daphne are like this. At best, it is because of their excellent performance in the past period that they have given them Their limited autonomy does not mean that they can safely entrust their backs to them like they trust Zalanda and Catherine.
Including the recent period, he has adopted more suggestions from the six-armed snake demon. Although many of them are chaotic evil methods, they are indeed very beneficial to him. The ones he just adopted, such as locking the Lizard Queen and the Spirit Naga together, are not simple. It is to use the hatred of the Lizard Queen towards the spirit naga to carry out inhumane revenge and torture on him. At the same time, it is also a precise use of the anger that the spirit naga has constantly generated towards the lizard queen in the process, and in turn vents the anger to Thun. Swamp, venting to her royal court, this is a strategic method - to sow discord.
The spirit naga quickly replied without thinking: "Before the war, the Lizard King's court had a total of twenty-three half-black dragon lizardmen and more than two hundred evil-toothed lizardmen. They were all direct descendants of the Lizard Queen. They were killed by a They are led by the legendary half-black dragon lizardman named Gregory. They are the key to the Lizard King's control of the Thun Swamp. Usually, half of them will take turns serving Kurgor in the royal court, so that the Lizard Queen can control and train them.
The other half is distributed among the lizardman tribes throughout the Thun Swamp. Those lizardman tribes as vassals are directly controlled by them. There are fifteen large tribes with more than a thousand people, all of which have relatively fixed spheres of influence. Fifteen tribes take turns to pay tribute once a month. They not only have to contribute their wealth to the greedy fat dragon, but also satisfy her greedy appetite for two days. In fact, the lord has chosen the wrong path from the beginning. Don't you Killing the controlling lizard queen should be done in secret, but in public. "
The Lizard Queen of the Lizard King's Court is not qualified, but this vizier is quite qualified. He knows the family background of the Lizard King's Court very clearly. Thinking about it, even if it is a rough rule, it is still a rule. You must have your own Run the system, otherwise it is just a basin of loose sand.
The Lizard Queen's method of controlling the Lizard King's court is simple and crude. She directly uses the family bloodline method. After she gives birth to a group of half-black dragon lizardmen, she then lets these half-black dragon lizardmen create more dragon-veined lizardmen, which is what the spirit naga calls her. of evil-toothed lizardmen, and then transformed these evil-toothed lizardmen into a tribe of black-scaled lizardmen for their own use.
In fact, before this, Gavin had come into contact with a similar existence, that is, the half-blue dragon hobgoblin Sarold who surrendered to him on the battleship of the Basilisk Human Slavery Group. He was born with the blood of Moremi. The composition model is basically similar to that of the Lizard King's Court, except that they are a combination of blue dragons and hobgoblins, and their scale is not comparable to that of the Lizard King's Court.
It would only take a hundred years for Kurgor to establish his own Lizard King's Court, and the Blood of Moremi originated more than three centuries ago, before the Silver Moon Alliance was officially established, and they did not act alone, but with the blue dragon This family business is carried out in a family model. There are as many as four known blue dragons alone, three of which are males.
As for the number of half-blue dragon hobgoblins and dragon-veined hobgoblins, except for the four blue dragons of Moremi's blood, even the members of this organization don't know. Due to the nature of the dragons, although they are a whole, they are each The development of forces is carried out separately, and many of the Moremi blood did not stay in the nest, but went outside to perform various tasks like Sarod. Three centuries is long enough, even for a human couple. It's enough to give birth to a family, let alone a giant dragon. Don't forget, whether they are half-dragons or dragon-veined ones, they are all immortal species and have far more lives than ordinary creatures.
Males have an advantage over females in making half-dragon offspring, because at the same time, males can impregnate dozens or even hundreds of female individuals, while females can only have one at a time.
However, in terms of survival rate and quality, the half-dragon descendants conceived by females are higher than those of males.
Because the process of a half-dragon hybrid born from a female dragon is basically similar to that of pure blood, except that the pregnancy and incubation periods are shortened by half. Even so, it is at least more than a year. During this process, the half-dragon Absorb enough nutrients to grow, and you will naturally be stronger and more inclined to the dragon after birth.
And those half-dragon hybrids conceived by humanoids have the same birth method as their race, egg-laying or viviparous.
Egg-laying is relatively easier, as the eggs laid are far beyond the normal range, but viviparous is more troublesome, and it is basically impossible to give birth normally, because the fetus is too large, far beyond the possibility of natural delivery, and all are delivered by caesarean section.
As for the caesarean section in Faerun, it is completely different from that on Earth. There are no special doctors or surgeries here. Just cut the belly with a knife and it's done. There is no anesthesia or pre-examination. Those who are more particular will hire a special priest to wait and cast a healing spell. Those who are not particular will just drink a bottle of healing potion and it's over. Whether the pregnant woman can survive depends on whether she is strong enough. There are even some who don't have either of the above.
Don't worry, this is not the most brutal. The most brutal caesarean section is not from the outside, but from the inside. The conceived babies do it themselves. They directly cut the mother from the inside, just like breaking an eggshell, and they treat the mother like an eggshell. While it is still warm, they stuff it into their stomachs to get the first and most important nutrients in their lives. Half-dragon babies have this ability.
There are countless cross-species love crystals in Feren, but there are also countless hybrids born out of tragedy. Don't talk about ethics and morality. When reproductive isolation between races does not exist, some tragedies will be inevitable.
This kind of half-dragon born from humanoid creatures is inherently undernourished. Compared with those born from giant female dragons, they are inferior in terms of survival rate and growth limit. This is reflected in the comparison between the half-black dragon lizardmen and the half-blue dragon hobgoblins. Not to mention the half-black dragon lizardmen, even those second-level evil-toothed lizardmen have a physique comparable to that of the half-blue dragon hobgoblins except that they do not have dragon wings.
Gavin still clearly remembers the attribute adjustment bonus of the half-blue dragon template: strength +8, agility +2, constitution +4, intelligence +2, charm +2.
This is the case for the half-blue dragons with inherent undernutrition. Aren’t these half-black dragon lizardmen who were previously well-nourished even more terrifying?
This is another important reason why Gavin is determined to eat the lizardmen in Thun Swamp. Their value is not just in Thun Swamp, but in the valley.
Don't forget the convenience of the Ashaba River. As long as a large inland navy can be established, his influence can sweep the entire valley along this river. In Faerun, if there is no underwater combat capability, the combat effectiveness of this navy is destined to be very limited, and it can barely protect itself. Don't even think about expanding with this. Those enemies with large amphibious navy will make your fleet shrink back.
Unless you can equip a large number of extraordinary wizards and have large-scale killing spells that can threaten underwater enemies, or like the ships seized from the petrified lizard slave trade group, have a non-diving maze to force the enemy to the surface, it is not 100% safe. Since there are ways to crack all spells, it is far better to have your own underwater troops to guard and conduct coordinated operations combining the navy and ships.
Gavin compared the intelligence he had with the contribution of the spirit naga, and asked curiously: "Tell me your reasons?"
"Although most of the lizardmen in the Tuen Swamp have the blood of the Lizard Queen, the main tool she uses to maintain her rule is not family affection but fear, and she is too greedy. In recent years, her appetite has become bigger and bigger, and she has become a serious burden on all lizardmen tribes. No matter how hard they hunt and capture, they can never accumulate a penny of wealth, and their stomachs are always half full. If the Lizard Queen is still there, they dare not be angry or speak, but once the Lizard Queen dies, the situation is different. But it is not too late now. As long as the Lord proves to them that the Lizard Queen is dead and will never return to the Tuen Swamp, and proves to them that she is more powerful than Kulgor, but kind enough, I believe they will be willing to swear allegiance to the Lord." The spirit naga, who is good at trickery, is naturally very good at grasping people's hearts and clearly knows the undercurrents surging under the Lizard King's Court.
Only Kulgol herself was still complacent about her absolute rule over the Thun Swamp and the Lizard King's Court, but she didn't know that her rule had already had big problems.
The spirit Naga with ulterior motives would certainly not report this problem to her. On the contrary, he would use various methods to exploit the lizardmen in the name of the Lizard Queen, attracting more hatred for Kulgol until the volcano was completely ignited and erupted. Only when the Lizard King's Court was in chaos would she have a chance to find a way to escape.
But before this internal volcano erupted, the Lizard Queen herself hit the iron plate of the Conqueror Army.
"Ha... I think I already have a way to conquer Thun Swamp." Gavin laughed, "I just need to tell them that whether their queen can return to Thun Swamp is only a matter of my thoughts. They can either swear allegiance to me, or I will release their queen and let them continue to serve her, and then be loyal to me under her leadership. Let them choose for themselves!"
