Tribe

The sheer difference in strength and their current predicament left the Sea Lizardman Elder with no choice. →69🅂🄷🅄🅇.🄲🄾🄼

After it lowered its head, Saine turned to Yuli and said, "Tell Cook and the others to wait for me a moment; I'll be right back."

Saine was clearly going to the Sea Lizardmen's territory alone, which showed his absolute confidence in his own strength.

The trench where the Sea Lizardmen have lived for generations is actually not far from here. If anything happens, Yuli's flying speed will allow her to arrive to provide support immediately.

Yuli responded to Saine's request almost without hesitation, turning around and flying back to the Alchemy Powered Ship to carry out Saine's assignment.

Cook and his men suffered heavy injuries in the recent battle, and given their current condition, they certainly wouldn't leave this area immediately.

Since we just repelled a Sea Lizardmen, we may encounter other sea creatures blocking our way later.

During storm season, the surrounding waters can be quite turbulent.

Like the Sea Lizardmen, there are many other low-level sea creatures that cannot survive, and there may even be some powerful mid-level sea creatures causing trouble.

Cook and his team are seasoned veterans; of course, they wouldn't put themselves in danger unnecessarily.

They will only set sail again once their condition has recovered to a certain level.

Yuli obeyed Saine's orders, while Saine, standing on Metal Discs, followed the Sea Lizardmen towards the deep ocean.

The Sea Lizardmen people are amphibious marine creatures, and some advanced Sea Lizardmen even possess fleshy wings, making them powerful creatures that can traverse land, sea, and air.

However, the Komora Clan has not produced any advanced Sea Lizardmen for over a thousand years. To possess a pair of fleshy wings, one must at least evolve to the Level-2 Lifeform.

However, to date, the Komora Clan has only two Level 1 Sea Lizardmen.

The Sea Lizardman Elder in front of them were obviously much more experienced. When they attacked Cook, they claimed to be the "Kunala Clan", but now they changed their name to "Komora Clan" in front of Saine. Who knows what their tribe is really called?

Saine even suspected that the Komora Clan " was a fabrication by the Sea Lizardman Elder in front of him.

After all, being a sea pirate is not a respectable or legal profession. If Saine, as Holy Tower Magician, were to go to the nearby Sea King Hall to stir up trouble, the Sea King Hall would certainly not let them off the hook.

Even wiping out this Sea Lizardmen tribe with a population of less than 100,000 would be an easy task.

As amphibians, the Sea Lizardmen do not live in the deepest part of the ocean.

Despite their scales and cold blood allowing them to adapt to the low temperatures of the seabed, these cold-blooded creatures still yearn for sunlight and warmth.

As a small and weak tribe, the Komora Clan were not capable of occupying the underwater volcanoes that were most suitable for the Sea Lizardmen to live in.

However, the Fei Lie Trench they chose has excellent sunlight, and the ocean temperature there is slightly higher than elsewhere.

Don't underestimate the impact of even the slightest temperature change. While the survival rate of Sea Lizardmen is high, their strength after hatching is often related to temperature and nearby trace elements.

For almost all passively evolved organisms, strength is the foundation for their survival in this world.

The Sea Lizardmen's territory in the surrounding waters was very small, which meant that it only took about fifteen hourglasses for Saine and the Sea Lizardman Elder to arrive at the Fei Lie Trench.

This is a small trench, about 500 meters wide and no more than 2,000 meters long.

This small trench is the ancestral home of the Sea Lizardmen who lived here in the past.

Although the surface of the trench is small, its depth is very large.

The drop of nearly 700 to 800 meters has provided shelter for many families of Sea Lizardmen.

Saine noticed that only the strongest Sea Lizardmen could live in the uppermost layer of this trench.

At the top of this trench, as the Sea Lizardman Elder used a special technique to part a piece of coral reef, what came into Saine's view was a field of white eggs.

Some fine bluish-green blood streaks appeared on the surface of these white eggs.

Some of the white eggs were nearing the end of their incubation, and under the sunlight on the seabed, Saine could vaguely see the already formed bodies of the Sea Lizardmen cubs inside.

There were also some eggs that had just been placed here; they were not only unformed, but there was also very little blood on their surface.

Saine didn't actually have much interest in studying the eggs of the Sea Lizardmen.

Since the Sea Lizardmen are not special marine creatures, they do not possess any racial abilities that would warrant Saine's attention.

The reason why Saine was willing to pay a high price to exchange for the Sea Lizardmen's eggs stemmed from his previous thoughts on the sea surface—to bring the Sea Lizardmen and other inferior marine species onto the war machine in the future Holy Tower Plane War.

There were thousands of white eggs in front of him. Saine finally went to the place with the most light and selected four Sea Lizard Egg with the most concentrated Blood Qi.

Saine's actions provoked a roar from the Sea Lizardman Chieftain.

If it weren't for the Sea Lizardman Elder beside it stopping it, this guy, whose head was really filled with muscles, would probably have attacked Saine without a second thought.

Saine had a sharp eye; among the thousands of Sea Lizard Egg before him, he could easily tell which were the best. A near-perfect Sea Lizard Egg, besides requiring ample light and certain trace elements, also needed extremely strong bloodlines from its parents.

As luck would have it, the four Sea Lizard Egg that Saine chose were all offspring of the most powerful Sea Lizardmen in the Sea Lizardmen tribe in front of him, and one of them was even the child of the Sea Lizardman Chieftain!

The difficulty for first-level organisms to produce offspring far exceeds that for lower organisms below the first level.

This is a result of biological evolution, and a manifestation of the restrictions imposed on higher life forms by the laws of the Star Realm.

Given the current poverty of the Sea Lizardmen tribe, they clearly lack the ability to purchase fertility potions from certain Mage organizations in the Wizard World to increase their birth rate.

The most perfect Sea Lizard Egg was crystal clear and white, with no blood streaks on its surface, like a work of art, truly worthy of being the offspring of a first-class creature.

The rage of the Sea Lizardman Chieftain was within Saine's expectations.

Saine scoffed and said, "One Magic Coin for one Sea Lizard Egg? You don't think I'm talking about the eggs of ordinary Sea Lizardmen, do you?"

"Besides, the mother of this Sea Lizard Egg should just be an ordinary female Sea Lizardmen below level one, right?"

Saine's cold snort nearly caused the Sea Lizardman Chieftain's trident to pierce his Magic Robe.

The Sea Lizardman Elder, who had been blocking its way, remained silent throughout, only occasionally revealing in his eyes a lingering affection and reluctance for the Sea Lizard Egg.

Actually, there's something that Saine doesn't know.

That is the Sea Lizardman Elder in front of you, who is actually related to the Sea Lizardman Chieftain by blood.

In the resource-scarce ocean depths, only powerful ancestors can give birth to powerful descendants.

The Sea Lizard Egg that Saine had his eye on could actually be considered a descendant of the Sea Lizardman Elder.

However, the Sea Lizardman Elder was a reasonable elder, and he would not gain any advantage by fighting against Saine head-on.

Furthermore, the Sea Lizardman Elder were more concerned about the life and death of the entire tribe than about their own descendants.

It then spoke in some kind of underwater dialect, grumbling and scolding the Sea Lizardman Chieftain.

In terms of Mental Strength, it means that your child, or the child of any other Sea Lizardmen in the tribe, is equal!

Four Sea Lizard Egg can be exchanged for four Magic Coin.

With the purchasing power of four Magic Coin, it is enough to buy food for thousands of Sea Lizardmen for a year.

It's not that Magic Coin have too much purchasing power underwater, but rather that the Sea Lizardmen really aren't picky eaters.

Choose the cheapest, lowest-grade rations; four Magic Coin can really get you a lot of things!
