Borderlands, Dragon Valley.

The fishing competition that relied purely on skills still ended with Red Iron Dragon's victory, successfully snatching multiple potions from the rich woman Metal Dragon.

Similar potions.

Garos has gained a lot from Red-Silver Dragon through playing with him, guessing puzzles, betting, and exercising guidance.

There are Wyvern potions that increase agility speed, Arcane Dragon potions that increase Elemental Spirit's sensitivity, and Tyrant Dragon potions that increase temporary resistance. There are roughly nine types of potions. They are all rare potions that have strong effects on Dragonkin. They are exquisite products formulated by Silver Dragon, a 19-level adult.

"Potion Warlock. Do I also need to learn a similar auxiliary career path?"

Garos came up with this idea.

But soon, he forgot about it and gave up his veto.

"I should let my subordinates or other Dragonkin learn this kind of career path. For example, the red dragon Samantha took up the position of Alchemist."

"This way I can enjoy the benefits without taking up my time."

Garos thought in his heart.

When taking in other Dragonkin and Dragon Valley in the future, while giving them shelter, they must also have corresponding requirements.

For example.

It is necessary for them to learn and dabble in a career path that is beneficial to Dragon Valley and the development of the tribe as soon as possible. They cannot be as lazy as Gordon and waste Dragonkin's talents.

At the same time.

In the biting cold wind, Red Iron Dragon looked up.

He saw that the blizzard was pouring like silver sand on the valley cliffs on both sides of Dragon Valley, and was blocked outside the valley, so that only sporadic light snow fell in the valley.

Outside the valley where the wind and snow raged, the strong Two-Legged Wyvern flapped its wings, dragged various bricks dug out from the mine with iron chains, and climbed up against the wind after being refined.

Except Two-Legged Wyvern.

There are also many wild Barbarians and Minotaur slaves, urged by the whip whistle of the Gnoll supervisor, to climb to the top of the cliff carrying heavy iron ingots, steel ingots, etc.

Occasionally, a frozen and exhausted slave fell down.

But soon new slaves will be driven out to fill the vacancy.

On the cliff top platform.

Alchemist are operating some industrial buildings Golem that are old models but still have good effects. They were originally the accumulation of the Golden Fang Tribe, but now they belong to the wealth of the Molten Iron Tribe.

Some feet are equipped with shock devices, and the steps continue to fall, tamping the foundation as solid as steel.

Some chests are inlaid with fire gems, burning Black Oil as energy, and spraying high-temperature flames from their palms to soften the metal ingots for easier connection.

Some are crane-type structures, responsible for building the stone materials transported by Wyvern into a huge prototype of a city wall.

The Lizardfolk "craftsmen" who have the most architectural talents gathered together, holding drawings-like things and making gestures, constantly instructing various family members to do things.

The wind and snow are falling, and the fortress standing on the top of the cliff has taken shape.

Looking at the busy family members and slaves, as well as the fortress that was gradually taking shape, Red Iron Dragon showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"Finally I have a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

he thought.

All this time, Garos has been either living in a dark cave or living in the open air.

But this is not his original wish.

Dragonkin is not Beast and has certain requirements for residence.

The majestic, impregnable and powerful fortress is an architectural style that Dragonkin prefers, and it is also what Garos likes.

But.

A fortress that can accommodate giant creatures is not the same concept as a fortress for human nobles.

In order to adapt to the size of Dragonkin, the lowest wall of the fortress will be as towering as a city wall in the eyes of other species.

Walls, columns, and domes all require a large amount of materials, and the texture must be high-grade. Ordinary masonry cannot be used, but solid metal must be used. If necessary, Alchemist must engrave runes on each square brick to strengthen it, otherwise Dragonkin will be like crumbs at the touch of a touch.

Garos had the idea of building a fortress a long time ago, but due to various reasons, it was never implemented.

Until now, Molten Iron Tribe has led Borderlands. There are no foreign threats, and in the short term, development is the main focus, and there will be no more rash wars. The situation has stabilized, and there is room for building a fortress.

The existence of a fortress like this is also a watershed moment.

Only Lord Dragon, who has a large family, strong foundation, and stable rule, can build a dragon fortress.

In Ser Wilderness's Iron Dragon Mother, there are no fortresses in the territory. They mainly live in modified caves. Because the wilderness is full of dangers and there are many strong men, their dependents need to patrol and guard, and the resources under their command are also limited. Iron Dragon Mother has no time to build a fortress.

"Deborah, do your parents have a fortress in Red Maple Valley?"

Garos asked Red-Silver Dragon.

"No. They prefer to live in human form, so they don't build fortresses."

Deborah blinked and looked up at the prototype of the fortress that was built bit by bit in the howling wind and snow. A trace of envy flashed in his eyes and he said, "Garos, you are just a teenager and you can have your own fortress. Any Metal Dragon who is your age will be jealous if they know about it."

Metal Dragon Building a fortress is not easy either.

There are relatively few Lord Dragon among them. If they want to build a fortress, most of them use their wealth and Dragon Vein to hire craftsmen from other races, such as humans and intelligent creatures such as Dwarf, to help build it.

In addition to material costs, there are also labor costs, design fees, etc. It is difficult to count.

The intermediate expenses will make even the middle-aged Metal Dragon feel heartbroken.

Silver Dragon and his wife didn't build a fortress, probably not because they didn't like it, but because they couldn't bear the expense, so they settled for the next best thing and built a human-shaped residence.

Another thing worth mentioning is that.

As he grows older, Metal Dragon's wealth will actually be gradually surpassed by Evil Dragon's, because Evil Dragon burns, kills, loots, and collects all the wealth he can get like a whale, without any moral burden, and his efficiency in accumulating wealth resources is higher than that of Metal Dragon.

The biggest source of Metal Dragon's wealth is "punishing rape and eradicating evil" and robbing Evil Dragon's wealth.

But Lord Evil Dragon is not so easy to grab.

If there is no Evil Dragon, you can grab it.

Then you will be like Silver Dragon Aldri, choose some Alchemist, Potion Warlock type of occupation, and sell the things you make to make a profit.

"This fortress is designed to be based on the size of Mature Dragon, and will also serve as a gathering and ceremonial place for Dragon Valley."

"When it's completed, there will be plenty of space."

Red Iron Dragon grinned and said to Red-Silver Dragon, "When the time comes, you can move in if you like, and I can leave a room for you."

He is actually willing to share his fortress.

Garos is indeed not Evil Dragon!

Red-Silver Dragon nodded happily, but suddenly said warily, "You won't ask me for rent, will you? Unless it's free, otherwise I won't live here anymore."

Red Iron Dragon said sternly, "Whatever you say, given our friendship, is of course free."

The free ones are the most expensive. Garos added in his mind.

Only by tying Red-Silver Dragon firmly to his chariot could he easily pull Metal Dragon's tiger skin, or even hug Silver Dragon's old father's thigh to use his magic potion.

"However, there is still a key issue."

Garos shook off the snow from the wing membrane, looked at Red-Silver Dragon, and then asked solemnly, "Deborah, if I take in a lot of evil Hatchling Dragon here, will I be targeted by Metal Dragon after the news is exposed?"

This is what worries him the most.

Evil Dragon people gather in large numbers in one place.

Federation may not be able to control it during civil strife, but Metal Dragon may descend from the sky, treating Dragon Valley as a gathering place for evil Evil Dragon types, and attack here.

Although Borderlands has established a firm foothold, Garos has always maintained a clear mind.

Molten Iron Tribe's prosperity today is more a result of grasping the current situation than a manifestation of absolute strength. This new force is still fragile and cannot withstand the blows of top forces.

After hearing what Garos said.

"Garos" Red-Silver Dragon shook his head slightly, his eyes swept over Red Iron Dragon's majestic and ferocious body, and then said seriously, "Metal Dragon will have a natural prejudice against you, but how can you not have a deep prejudice against Metal Dragon?"
