The wilderness in the rainy season is soaked by continuous rain. The originally clear scent of prey is washed away and mixed, making it difficult to distinguish. The surge of streams will wash away footprints and traces, making Tracker lose its direction.

The flesh and blood of prey deteriorates rapidly in the sweltering heat and humidity, and even if it is successfully hunted, it cannot be preserved for a long time.

Gnoll of the Red-Eye Clan.

Lizardfolk of the Rending Claw Clan.

They unanimously chose to go through the route controlled by the clan when the rain subsided, and came to a certain road section of Scale-Earth Rift Road, where they began to ambush and plunder.

Based on the clan's past experience.

They know that the rainy season in Ser Wilderness will not end so soon. Above the pattering rain curtain, the dark clouds in the sky are accumulating and brewing more violent storms, which may come at any time. Therefore, no matter what they do, it is best to start when the rain is not strong.

The strange thing is.

Jawbone Clan and Ogre are still staying within their territory and do not go out in large numbers.

Even if one clan is missing.

The few caravans that passed through Scale-Earth Rift Road were exploited and plundered by Gnoll and Lizardfolk. They were unable to reach the road section occupied by the Howling Moon Clan. The only ones that could be reached were large caravans that Red-Eye Clan and Rending Claw Clan did not dare to move. Howling Moon Clan also had no confidence to plunder.

"Red-Eye Clan and Rending Claw Clan."

"Gnoll, Lizardfolk."

Garos narrowed his eyes slightly and pondered in his heart.

He has not investigated the general situation of these two clans himself, but has some knowledge through the Howling Moon Clan.

Gnoll is individually weaker than Gray-maned Werewolf, but the overall level of the Red-Eye Clan is similar to the Howling Moon Clan.

Their leader is an overseer.

Gnoll Warlord--In Gnoll society, it is not only a status, but also a class.

The most powerful and ferocious individual in the Gnoll group, he was promoted to warlord through the ritual of devouring the hearts of other Gnolls. The probability of death is high if the ritual fails, but once successful, you will gain many extraordinary skills.

Gnoll Warlord can strengthen the surrounding kin, making its attacks inflict additional damage or gain movement advantages, making it brave and fearless without fear of death. It can also explode with power far beyond the normal Gnoll.

Except Gnoll Warlord.

Red-Eye Clan There is another priest.

Sacrifice is different from Shaman.

Shaman uses meditation and totems to communicate with the spirits of nature, Ancestor Spirit, Beast, the spirits of vegetation, etc., in order to obtain extraordinary power. Sacrifice is to serve the gods and offer sacrifices to Deity to obtain corresponding gifts.

Gnoll Priest, the Deity it believes in is Gnoll God[Yeenoghu].

This is a Deity, who is also Demon Lord.

Thanks to his gift, Gnoll Priest's survival skills are not as good as Shaman's, but he has mastered many brutal sacrificial rituals and divine arts.

What is certain is that.

Gnoll Warlord and the sacrifice are both level 7 life forms.

"Rending Claw Clan and Jawbone Clan are larger in scale and have stronger clan power."

"In that case, let's start with the Red-Eye Clan."

Garos thought to himself.

Pick the soft persimmons first and pinch them.

Red-Eye Clan's warlords and priests are not easy to mess with in the eyes of the Howling Moon Clan, but they are nothing to Garos. Although he is cautious, he is very aware of his own power level.

Such creatures as Gnoll.

The same Life Level, even if it is several times greater, will hardly pose a life threat to Dragonkin.

Rending Claw Clan and the stronger Jawbone Clan include Life Level, a higher individual, but to be honest, with Garos's current strength, he can actually come directly to the door if he wants.

But Garos doesn't like this.

He also likes to fight beyond levels, but not upwards.

If conditions permit.

Garos wants to "leap-level" and crush level 6, 5, and 4 creatures.

He doesn't have the determination of a strong man to wield his sword against a stronger one, nor does he have much ambition. Maybe he will in the future, but for now, he believes in the principle of putting his own life first and just wants to live for a long time. If possible, it would be better if he can live more comfortably.

Garos said to Werewolf Shaman, "Continue to send Werewolf to ambush Scale-Earth Rift Road. Other clans will soon no longer pose a threat to you."

"What are you going to do?"

Werewolf Shaman asked.

Garos grinned, revealing his sharp dragon teeth. "From the Red-Eye Clan onwards, they will either be destroyed or become your companions."

Hearing this, Werewolf Shaman moved slightly.

As Shaman, it communicates with all things in nature all the year round and has a keen mind. As it comes into contact with Garos, it gradually realizes that although Garos claims to be not Evil Dragon, it gives it a vague feeling of danger.

If you had refused allegiance in the first place.

What awaits Howling Moon Clan is probably also destruction.

It thought to itself, feeling somewhat fortunate that it did not regret its original choice.

Garos does not treat them cruelly. The only thing that makes Werewolfs flinch is that he likes to ask Werewolfs to besiege him, so he is almost exhausted to death, but this is also a kind of exercise for Werewolfs.

Moreover, Garos likes to hone his fighting skills through Hunt and does not require Werewolf to provide food. Even when hunting and killing the surrounding ferocious beasts and monsters, if he is full and kills more ferocious beasts and monsters, he will also give rewards to his family members.

The ferocious beasts and monsters that can be targeted by Garos are a rare treat for the Howling Moon Clan.

Garos's shelter is also important.

His Dragonkin aura prevented the ferocious beasts that would attack the clan in the past from approaching at will, and the sense of threat from other clans was greatly reduced. This gave the Werewolfs a lot of peace of mind and they were able to focus on other things. Several she-wolves were pregnant in the past few days.

"Howling Moon Clan is always on call!"

"As long as you give the order, Werewolf will become your minions and your vanguard."

Shaman crawled on the ground again, his voice firm, expressing his loyalty.

Having received the protection and gifts from Garos, it is also ready to fight for it.

However, Garos shook his head indifferently.

"There's no need for you to fight."

After a pause, he added, "Let the young adults in the clan have a good rest and give them the best food. I hope their claws will become sharper, and it is best to leave scars on my body and make me bleed."

Old Shaman was silent, speechless.

Are there some errors in the clan's ancient records regarding Dragonkin?

it thinks.

If it had known that Dragonkin was like Garos, it would not have had to be given a choice by Garos. When it saw Garos, it would have led the whole clan to bow to it as soon as possible!

The wilderness ground is full of obstacles.

Now is the rainy season again, the ground is overgrown with weeds and muddy, and the bushes are growing wildly.

Garos dislikes Werewolf's movement speed on the ground, and does not intend to let them attack together to put pressure on the Red-Eye Clan. With their speed, I don't know how long it will take before they reach Red-Eye Clan.

Just do it yourself.

His purpose of gathering his followers was not mainly to fight for himself.

Garos waved its wings, soared into the sky in the drizzle, and disappeared into the thick dark clouds in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, he rushed to Gnoll Red-Eye Clan.

In the west of Ser Wilderness, near the Boiling Sea, the Giant clan, composed of more than a dozen Stone Giant, was forced to organize the things in the territory and prepare to move north.

"Elder, will we come back?"

Standing on a high place, looking back at the turbulent Boiling Sea, the young man Stone Giant asked the elder Stone Giant in a rough voice.

"When we are strong enough to kill these Blue Dragon, we will come back and take back our territory."

The tall and strong elder Stone Giant, who was dressed in gray skin, said in a deep voice. His voice was like the friction of rolling stones, rough and dull.

In Crag Strait, their clan fought for several years with a group of the Blue Dragon Clan for territory.

As time went by, the Stone Giants gradually became exhausted. Only eleven of the more than thirty Stone Giants died, and most of them were minors.

If the war continues, they are at risk of total annihilation.

As a last resort.

The Stone Giants chose to abandon their original territory and migrate, temporarily avoiding the sharp edge of the Blue Dragon Clans and fleeing to the north.
