Garos's dragon claws dug deeply into Glutton Demon's chest, and the beating of the heart could be clearly felt.
Kalu's black iron skin groaned under the heavy pressure, and an unwilling roar rolled in his throat.
It opened its bloody mouth, and the shark teeth bit Garos's Dragon Arm fiercely. However, the scales shook the teeth so hard that it felt like biting black iron.
It struggled wildly, trying to break away from Garos's oppression, but the dragon on its body was as heavy as a mountain, and the dragon's claws did not move at all. Instead, as it struggled, it continued to press down inch by inch, cracking and crushing its sternum.
"I'll give you two choices."
Garos lowered his head and came closer, his hot breath with the smell of sulfur and metal sprayed on Glutton Demon's face. At the same time, his dragon wings slowly lifted up and stretched out. The guillotine-like wing bones pressed against Glutton Demon's neck, pressing down to draw a bleeding line.
"The first option is death."
Garos's eyes were awe-inspiring, full of dangerous and murderous intent. "I will destroy your clan, tear apart every bone of yours, dig out your heart, and place it in my trophy room. My inheritance tells me that Glutton Demon's heart can survive alone, which is just for verification."
"The second option is surrender."
Garos pressed its dragon claws on Glutton Demon's head and said in a low voice, "Become my dependent and serve me. When you have established enough merits, I will give you Dragon Vein and turn you into Dragon-veined Glutton Demon. In the future, you can eat more powerful prey without starving. Your clan will also flourish under my dragon wings."
Dragonkin's method of conquering his dependents can be summed up in four words.
--Coercion and inducement.
Mere intimidation will make them burn to the ground and refuse to surrender.
A simple inducement will make them sneer and not take it seriously.
But when coercion and inducement are combined, it is simple, direct, brutal and effective.
For the monster clan in the wilderness, survival is the most important thing. Only those intelligent creatures living in fertile lands and civilized countries will consider dignity and freedom.
Glutton Demon gradually stopped struggling.
Under the threat of death, its angry mind calmed down a lot, and finally realized that it was no match for Garos.
Even if the opponent gives up air superiority and comes to the ground.
Still beating it until it was unable to fight back.
After seven rounds of bombing and a severe beating, Jawbone Clan and Glutton Demon realized how powerful Garos was.
Garos let go of Glutton Demon, who was no longer struggling, and looked at it quietly, waiting for the answer.
Glutton Demon stood up unsteadily, suddenly tore off a piece of flesh from his body with his sharp claws, then knelt on one knee and fell in front of Garos.
Holding it with both hands, he offered the bloody piece of meat to Garos.
Glutton Demon said in a rough voice, "Please eat my flesh and blood and accept my allegiance."
Offering one's own flesh and blood to the strong is the oldest loyalty ceremony among the Ogre ethnic group. It is also recorded in Dragon Inheritance, and Glutton Demon's flesh and blood is not highly poisonous.
Garos took the flesh and blood, swallowed it in his throat and ate it.
Seeing this, Glutton Demon completely knelt down in front of him and said, "My name is Kalu, the king of the Jawbone Clan. From now on, I will surrender under your dragon wings and become your dependent family."
The patriarch surrenders.
The other Ogre no longer resisted and had no objections. They all knelt down around Garos and Glutton Demon and swore allegiance.
"Very good, get up."
"This will be the best decision you ever make in your life."
Garos said.
His inducement is not empty talk. Glutton Demon has good talent and is worthy of his Dragon Vein Conversion, but not now.
After being loyal, you will no longer be hostile.
The sense of threat coming from Garos dissipated, and the atmosphere was no longer tense.
Kalu scratched his scalp and couldn't help drooling over Garos.
After struggling for a few seconds, it bravely said, "Dragon Lord, can you let me have a taste of you?"
"I don't ask for flesh and blood. Well, you should be able to shed your skin. Give me a piece of your claw skin or the skin of your feet to taste, and I'll be satisfied."
Kalu was full of food, and he expressed his inner thoughts frankly.
Garos said calmly, "There is no skin, but you can eat some of those explosive dragon scales before, as long as you can eat them."
Kalu shook his head repeatedly.
Those Explosive Scale are not easy to digest.
Even with Gluttony Talent here, Kalu still felt a burning pain in his stomach. This was the sequelae caused by the previous forceful swallowing of Explosive Scale, and the stomach and intestines had been damaged to a certain extent.
"Lizardfolk, Gnoll, Gray-maned Werewolf."
"What is the current situation of these three monster clans? You should have conflicted with them during the expansion process."
Garos asked.
Glutton Demon thought for a while, grinned and said, "Lizardfolk's tail is delicious. Their territory was attacked by our clan, and most of them were killed or injured. The rest fled in all directions. Gnoll's meat was a bit fishy, and they ran very fast. When they found that our soldiers were approaching, they gave up their territory and only caught a few. Gray-maned Werewolf didn't meet them, so they escaped early."
Garos asked again, "Have you occupied Crescent Moon Valley and Weeping Cliff?"
Glutton Demon shook his head. "The number of our tribe is limited. We left after eating the remaining food in these places without occupying them."
After asking for a while, Garos roughly understood the situation.
Ogre Clan Because the number of their own clans is limited, their expansion is mainly a kind of barbaric plunder and Hunt, mainly for more food, and has no intention of occupying the territories of other biological clans.
Facing their first wave of attacks, Gnoll and Gray-maned Werewolf escaped.
However, with Gnoll's cunning and cunning, and Gray-maned Werewolf's emphasis on their territory, they will also explore the territory afterwards. Once they find that Ogre does not occupy the territory, they will most likely turn back.
The risk of wandering around in the wilderness, moving and searching for new territories is too high.
There is also the situation of Scale-Earth Rift Road.
According to Glutton Demon, in the beginning, caravans would come from time to time and "send" a lot of food to them, but then there were fewer and fewer.
Garos It's not hard to think of.
Due to Ogre's excessive and unplanned looting, Scale-Earth Rift Road was marked as a high-risk road, so fewer caravans traveled here.
It's more than that.
There may be defenders paying attention to the situation of Scale-Earth Rift Road, creating potential risks.
Thinking of this, Garos felt troubled and wanted to beat Glutton Demon again.
Their mindless expansion disrupted their plan to establish channels and obtain Black Oil stably.
But fate is so unpredictable. Variables and accidents will happen at any time. The world does not revolve around Garos. Six years is enough to change many things, and it is difficult for everything to go smoothly.
That's it.
Garos will find another way.
If a problem occurs, find a way to solve it without worrying about it.
"If Gnoll and Gray-maned Werewolf are still there, Weeping Cliff may not necessarily be the same, but Crescent Moon Valley should have accumulated some Black Oil in the past few months."
he thought.
Looking around, Garos saw the scorched earth that was full of messes due to his bombing. Then, he withdrew his gaze and said to Glutton Demon Kalu, "Take some rest with your tribe. I will be back soon."
After a pause, he added, "No more looting of trade routes is allowed during this period. Wait for my order."
After explaining some matters to the Jawbone Clan.
Garos soared into the sky, passing through the night, heading towards Crescent Moon Valley.
He hadn't eaten it in more than six years. He missed the taste of Black Oil very much and hoped that there would be some in Crescent Moon Valley.
