The warm wind in summer blows from the Wave Sea to Lost Wilderness. The ice armor on the mountains cracks and the melted snow flows down, giving Windsong Plateau vitality.
It has been nearly a month since Hatchling Dragon first set foot on this land.
"We can use bows and arrows, but they are all soft bows tanned with rawhide strings. They are not strong enough and will lose their elasticity once they encounter water. If we run with only our legs, we cannot catch up with those chamois deer who are very good at escaping."
Yazi stood in front of Ferrum. His injuries had healed, but he was still a little weak. "So the hunting before was mainly based on traps and ambushes. Although we can also challenge those powerful Aberrant Monster, in order to reduce casualties, we usually avoid them unless there is famine."
"But Hatchling Dragon's leadership has changed this situation. Dragons are great predators, and Master Moqi is more agile."
Yazi's voice fluctuated. "With his help, the hunting team no longer needs to spend a long time observing and investigating, squatting and setting up ambushes. We can take the initiative to attack, or we can lure and hunt. Over the past month, the tribe has gained a lot. The caves used to store food have gradually piled up, and the faces of the tribesmen are full of excitement and joy."
Ferrum listened and nodded slightly,
"After hunting chamois deer, we can use their back tendons to re-string them to produce a truly powerful hard bow, but the process is more complicated and takes a long time."
Yazi continued to report, "On the other hand, the scope of the hunting team's activities is increasing. The south is the Cave Dwellers tribe, the west is the Bearfolk tribe, and the northeast is close to the Mistveil Mountains. Our ability to control the surrounding areas has increased, and of course, the danger is also increasing."
"While you were recovering from your injuries, I took away the property and all the tradable materials from the Savage Bone Tribe." Ferrum said.
Yazi's expression did not change, he nodded and said, "Since we have followed the lord, we should dedicate everything in the tribe."
"Don't rush to express your position yet."
Ferrum stopped him and said slowly, "I asked Bido to take these things to Steelspine Plains to exchange Stone-Step Sheep with the local clan. Steelspine Plains is the largest and most important ranch of the family. Stone-Step Sheep is an inconspicuous little beast there, but it is very suitable for us."
Yazi's expression changed.
Ferrum continued, "I have already seen that the large Kodo Beast and Mane Argali cannot be raised on the platform. These small animals can only be raised in captivity. However, Stone-Step Sheep can be put out in three or four months and can be our main food in the future."
"Savage Bone Clan women are old and weak and cannot be warriors, but they still know how to raise animals in captivity and do some manual work."
Yazi nodded vigorously, then lowered his gaze. "Actually, Mountain Goblin also had a ranch before..."
"There's no need to talk about what happened before, I know everything you need to know."
Chrome Dragon flicked his talons, interrupted him, and said, "Stand up and let me see."
Yazi understood what the lord meant, stretched out his hands and stood up, then turned his back and turned around in a circle.
He was wearing a black armor. The women of the Savage Bone Clan were busy for a month, binding and sewing the edges of the giant scorpion shell ground by Little Stone Spirits, and then coated it with resin to make such a simple armor.
Thirty pieces of armor, thirty armor knives, and usable dried meat were all that Savage Bone Clan obtained from the Armor-Splitting Scorpion attack after paying the price of blood.
Ferrum assigned these swords and armors to the most powerful Savage Bone Warriors. In this way, they finally did not have to wear coarse animal skins to rush to Battlefield. The bone knives originally used by these Mountain Goblin were difficult to cut even the hard shell of the scorpion.
Although Mountain Goblin has a small population and is not very powerful, Ferrum finally has its own weapons.
During this period of time, he was running his own small territory, and watching Savage Bone Clan change little by little, he felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart.
The next step is to conquer the Cave Dwellers tribe.
Ferrum has guessed that the Armor-Splitting Scorpion attack is most likely related to Bearfolk, but is not in a hurry to question it. Instead, he plans to integrate the power of Mountain Goblin and Cave Dwellers first, and finally attack Bearfolk.
"You go ahead."
He nodded and saw Yazi leaning away, then closed his eyes and entered Consciousness Starfield.
As the latest presentation of the Destiny Alliance, Savage Bone Clan, Ferrum and Consciousness Starfield, they all converge into a huge star cluster, with bright and blazing light.
Although they had just conquered the dependents less than a month ago, the Threads of Bond they linked to was much tougher than expected, and was already comparable to the silk thread of Kेलaili.
With the arrival of Ferrum, Consciousness Starfield seemed to have sensed it. All the projections of destiny emitted a hundred times more light, and colorful light particles emerged from the soles of their feet, overflowing with waves like waterfalls, and the entire dark space became as bright as day.
Ferrum raised his head and breathed, feeling that the majestic power was being accumulated.
The light gathered around him and focused on the top of his head.
Star Inscription.
[Bone Growth]
A brand new talent awakens and appears in the body of Ferrum.
He felt a familiar pain in his joints, as if a desperate illness from his previous life had followed him like tarsal gangrene, but this time it did not bring weakness and death.
But strong strength and vitality!
Ferrum exited Consciousness Starfield, grinding his teeth and sucking his teeth, lowering his back little by little.
In the next moment, his body suddenly exploded, and chromium-rich bones protruded from all parts of his body. It looked like a ferocious metal flower blooming out of thin air.
The flowers immediately closed up, and Ferrum turned around, his bones acting like arms, closing and releasing according to his will.
A thick and long bone awl extended from the claw toe of Ferrum, like a conjoined lance, penetrating the rock wall at the edge of the cave with a tooth-gripping sound.
Ferrum thought for a while, retracted the bone awl, picked up a rock fragment, threw it up casually, then flicked his tail, and the powerful tail flick smashed the gravel against the rock wall, and then immediately bounced back.
Chrome Dragon met him head-on, and the rocks collided and shattered, falling with a rustling sound. A prismatic bone on his face slowly sank into the epidermis.
"Exoskeleton."
Ferrum whispered to himself, understanding how this ability is realized.
Chrome Dragon can become Higher Species with the most powerful attack power among Heavy-Metal Dragon, relying on their chromium bones and heavy metal horns, which are sharper and harder than Iron Dragon who is Royal Strain.
"This ability can improve my combat performance. Although my body is still fragile, with the protection of the exoskeleton, I can finally withstand some frontal attacks."
Ferrum nodded slightly, feeling satisfied. "And... the body's self-healing ability seems to have been strengthened."
With his talent awakening and ability improvement, Ferrum was also successfully promoted to Eighth-Level Disaster, possessing the power to rival Juvenile Dragon.
At this time, rapid footsteps suddenly came from outside the cave. It was not Mountain Goblin from the Savage Bone Clan, but Hatchling Dragon Moqi who had just rushed back from outside.
"Ferrum."
Moqi said hurriedly, "Many Bearfolk soldiers have come from the south. They have arrived at the outskirts of Savage Bone Canyon and are confronting Mountain Goblin. They say they are here to have an audience and must see you."
