Emperor Dragon

Moon Bay, Xiamen Moon Island.

The cold and bright moonlight fell from the night sky. The leader of the magic lantern fishmen, who had climbed ashore with his seriously injured body from the sea, raised his head. His vision reflected the golden young dragon whose scales were still shining in the night.

Each golden, diamond-like scale is shining brightly.

There isn't a single scratch on it.

"My knowing blow didn't leave even a scratch on it? What kind of monster is this? Even a dragon shouldn't be so powerful."

The leader of the magic lantern fishmen was filled with unimaginable emotions.

With a knowing blow, this is a powerful attack that the psychic warrior gathers all his energy and spirit, condenses almost all his spiritual energy together, and bursts out in an instant, fully capable of killing enemies across levels.

However.

This blow, which condensed all the soul and will of the magic lantern fishman, had no effect at all.

"It directly knocked out 10% of my strength, not bad."

"If an ordinary sixth-level creature was hit, it would probably be uncomfortable."

Saga pondered, lowered his eyes and looked at the leader of the magic lantern murlocs, sizing him up for a moment.

Nowadays, the fish scales on his body are widely broken and the leader of the magic lantern fishmen is dripping with blood. He has lost the aura of fighting to the death at the beginning and has been replaced by a kind of decadence.

"Is this a serious mental shock?"

Saga narrowed his eyes slightly and saw that the lantern whiskers on the head of the magic lantern fish man were hanging down weakly, with almost no luster.

The golden young dragon lowered his eyes, and a deep voice sounded directly from the mind of the leader of the magic lantern fishmen:

"Mloc, if you want to be a slave or a descendant of the dragon, it's your choice."

Slave or dependent. The leader of the Magic Lantern Fishman looked dimly. He was unwilling to choose either of these two options, but now he had no choice at all.

Slaves and dependents, there seems to be no need to worry about it.

But this is different.

Slaves represent that they are unwilling to surrender to Longwei, but are forcibly captured and enslaved, and have no choice but to serve Saga.

If it becomes a dependent, it means giving up the dignity of belonging to the devil fish clan and being loyal to Saga.

After hesitating for a moment.

"The magic lantern fish people are willing to serve you and become your dependents."

"I will tell my people to serve you wholeheartedly. I just hope you can treat them well."

The leader of the magic lantern fishmen lowered his head, breathed weakly, and whispered.

It struggled to stand up with its seriously injured body, and spoke to its tribesmen in the language of the magic fish tribe, saying: "People of the magic lantern fish tribe, don't resist the rule of the true dragon. Being a dependent of the dragon does not mean that It will cause us to lose the dignity of the Demon Fish Clan. Your Excellency True Dragon has shown enough strength. By following True Dragon, we can achieve better development."

As it said this, its breath became weaker.

However, Saga could clearly see that a large number of magic lantern fish people who were forced to gather together showed resistance to him. These magic fish people, who are more proud and value dignity than ordinary intelligent creatures, are not willing to Acknowledge the compromise made by the head of the family.

They became restless, speaking the squeaky devil fish language, and looked quite excited.

"Why choose to surrender?"

"If it were in the frozen ocean, within the empire's sphere of influence created by our devil fish clan, the empire would not sit idly by."

"We are the Demon Fish Clan, not other inferior sea tribes. We have the dignity and glory of the Demon Fish Clan!"

Saga couldn't understand their words, but he could roughly understand their meaning through spiritual whispers, and he could feel the unwillingness and anger contained in their tones.

They seemed unable to understand how their leader could be willing to give up the dignity of the devil fish clan.

The leader of the magic lantern fishmen tried his best to comfort him, but the effect was very poor.

Its already weakened voice was drowned in the indignant sounds of other tribesmen.

"Your tribe doesn't seem to understand the situation."

Saga turned around and said to the leader of the magic lantern fishmen.

Out of concern for his tribe and consideration for the future of this tribe, this leader gave up his dignity and was willing to surrender. However, he was insulted and incomprehensible by his tribe.

Unlike the shark-tiger tribe, the devil fish has a higher IQ. After all, it is a creature that can generally use superficial psychic powers.

However, having a high IQ means having your own ideas, which means it is more difficult to manage. The prestige of the leader of the clan is not as good as that of the Shark Tiger clan. In contrast, the Shark Tiger clan trusts the prestigious leader too much. If the leader makes the wrong decision, It is very likely that the entire ethnic group will be completely destroyed.

These two modes can only be said to have their own pros and cons.

At this time, looking at the suspicious and distrustful eyes of a tribe, the leader of the Magic Lantern Fishman's already damaged heart sank again, as if a broken voice sounded in his heart.

Its face was a little twisted, and it wanted to say something, but its severely injured body shook and fell to the ground.

The leader of the magic lantern fishmen was seriously injured mentally and physically.

In particular, he was severely hit in his heart, and even began to doubt and deny himself, causing this spiritual warrior to die.

"Clan leader!"

Seeing the sudden collapse of the leader of the Magic Lantern Fishmen, the Magic Lantern Fishmen became even more agitated. Some of them directly broke through the blockade of the sharks and tigers and ran towards what they thought was the culprit, the golden-scaled Saga.

The topaz earth dragon roared and roared, its claws swept across, its tail smashed, and it directly crushed the magic lantern fish people rushing towards Saga. This made the magic lantern fish people calm down a little, but they were still ready to move, with angry eyes in their eyes.

The leader of the magic lantern fishmen turned his head to look at his own people, sighed, and then turned back to look at Saga with difficulty.

"Slaves or dependents. Let them choose."

"I don't care anymore."

A low voice sounded, and the light in his eyes dimmed. As the words fell, the magic lantern fishman leader's spiritual energy and its life breath disappeared at the same time.

The little dragon wagged its tail, and the brows on its faceplate wrinkled.

"No, isn't it just that I blocked your knowing blow without any damage, and it has such a huge impact on the soul?"

"Well...the reaction of its people also aggravated the psychological trauma."

The magic lantern fishman leader was seriously injured, but it could still be saved. It was only because it had lost the desire to live that it died so hastily.

A prestigious leader dies.

This means that Saga will lack a familiar leader who can effectively manage the magic lantern murlocs. With the unconvinced appearance of these magic lantern fishmen, if they are forcibly accepted as dependents on a large scale, they will probably be secretly stumbling upon themselves. type.

"The mind is so fragile and vulnerable, just die, it is a relief."

"Otherwise, even if you survive, you will suffer mentally in the future."

The leader of the Magic Lantern Fishmen is now dead. Saga raised his chin, looked at the restless Magic Lantern Fishmen, whispered, and used spiritual energy to transmit his will to their hearts, and said calmly:

"Choose."

"For the sake of dignity that is not worth mentioning, stubbornly resist me, and then I will help you, making you the lowest slave, retaining what you value, and allowing you to be narcissistic and excited about your dignity."

"Or, put down this ridiculous dignity of a weakling and be loyal to me."

As a dragon, Saga also values ​​dignity and glory.

But Saga believes that these are the privileges of the strong, and only the strong deserve dignity and glory.

Of course, the weak can also pursue dignity and glory, but the premise is that they can ignore the huge price paid in the pursuit. If it is difficult to achieve basic survival, there is no dignity and glory.

In the distant frozen ocean, there is a huge devil fish empire. There are many legendary and powerful devil fish in it, and there are even demigods. The magic lantern fish people also belong to the devil fish tribe. There are many in the devil fish empire. Among the magic lantern murloc people, there are also legendary level magic lantern murlocs.

However, this cannot change the fact that the Magic Lantern Fishmen of Moon Bay are weak.

Although they belong to the Demon Fish Clan, and although they are proud of the empire the Demon Fish Clan founded in the frozen ocean, they are not the subjects recognized by the Demon Fish Empire.

From the perspective of orthodox citizens of the Devil Fish Empire, these guys in remote areas are no different from savages, and they will not recognize them as their own race at all.

same time.

The mood swings of these magic lantern fish people gave Saga different feedback.

The vast majority of them are stubborn and unwilling to be loyal, preferring slavery or death.

However, there are still some magic lantern fish people who show their awe for Saga and hope to be loyal to Saga and become the dragon's dependents.

There are also some who suppress their anger and try their best to appear docile, thinking about the existence of temporary toleration.

Saga Dongruo Guanhuo did not need the answer from the magic lantern murloc. He stretched out his dragon claw and pointed, and said to a third-level elite magic lantern murloc: "You, temporarily take over the position of leader of the magic lantern murloc."

After selecting some other magic lantern fishmen, Saga said:

"Assist it, manage your fellow humans, and do your job well. I will treat you as my dependents, not slaves. If you behave well, I will grant you unimaginable opportunities."

Saga selected a small number of magic lantern fish people who had no resistance to him and even feared his own power.

In other words, a group of young people without much racial cohesion.

This type of magic lantern fish people who are afraid of power but also yearn for power account for about one-twentieth, which can be said to be a very small proportion. Most of the magic fish people have a relatively stubborn heart.

The Magic Lantern Fishman who was chosen as the new leader of the Magic Lantern Fishman looked confused, but he couldn't help but be happy.

"Gan, thank you True Dragon Crown, no, thank you my lord for your appreciation."

Under normal circumstances, how could it be its turn to be the leader?

Being suddenly chosen as the leader made this somewhat ambitious magic lantern fishman quite excited.

"Magraar, do you want to be a traitor to your race?"

At this time, a fourth-level magic lantern murloc shouted, angrily staring at the magic lantern murloc chosen by Saga as its leader.

"this"

Maglar hesitated and looked at Saga subconsciously.

The golden young dragon had an expressionless face and stretched out its claws.

Among all the magic lantern murlocs, this fourth-level magic lantern murloc is the most rebellious.

If he were not on the opposite side, Saga would appreciate creatures with this kind of personality, but since he is on the opposite side, there is nothing to say.

Whoosh!

Saga's mind moved, and an invisible and powerful gravitational force burst out.

The expression of the fourth-level magic lantern fish-man changed slightly, and he felt as if there was an invisible rope wrapped around him. His body instantly moved uncontrollably, flying up sharply, and was pulled towards the oppressive golden young dragon, but no When it touched, another repulsive force burst out, overwhelming it and pushing it to roll on the ground.

Until it is at the feet of the new leader of the Magic Lantern Murlocs.

Shaking his head, the fourth-level magic lantern fish man saw his fellow racer whom he regarded as a traitor looking down at him with gloating eyes.

The fourth-level magic lantern fishman felt humiliated, roared, and wanted to stand up to resist, but a strong pressure suddenly fell, making its body, which had been injured by the topaz earth dragon, overwhelmed and fell to its knees.

Its limbs firmly support its body, preventing it from lying directly on the ground.

At this time, Saga narrowed his eyes slightly, and his voice rang out from the mind of the leader of the Magic Lantern Fishmen he had chosen. He said slowly and logically without doubt: "Let me see your determination to serve me."

Whoosh!

Black Shark appropriately threw a serrated bone knife in front of the Magic Lantern Murloc.

The new leader was slightly stunned, and subconsciously picked up the serrated bone knife, but did not do it directly. He hesitated amidst the angry looks and curses of a large number of his fellow tribesmen.

"You, what do you want me to do?"

It asked Saga in its heart.

The golden young dragon narrowed his eyes slightly, and his calm words seemed to be brewing a stormy ocean, and said: "You don't know what you should do? Then, what use do I need you for?"

All he wants to do is to scare the monkeys.

In addition to this, there is a more important meaning - provoking internal opposition within the Magic Lantern Fish human race, causing internal divisions, and making the conflicts between their own races irreconcilable.

The vast majority of the magic lantern fish people who are slaves hate the managers selected by Saga, so these young managers can only hope to be loyal to Saga and try their best to do things for Saga. They even take the initiative to oppress and bully, control and restrain their own race, and in this way feel the dignity that has been abandoned.

This method is simple and effective, and is used by more than just Saga.

Many kingdoms and even empire-level forces use similar methods to manage other countries and even the people of their own country. The specific implementation details may be slightly different, but the overall model and core are similar. of.

Intelligent creatures that are oppressed and constrained by this method often cannot feel it, but even if they are aware of it, they can only accept it helplessly and numbly if they do not have the power to break the situation.

The new leader of the Magic Lantern Fishmen hesitated for a few seconds.

It looked around and saw the eyes of its own race filled with hatred.

But I don't know why, a burst of anger suddenly grew in my heart.

The new leader of the Magic Lantern Murlocs, who had been hesitant and hesitant at first, was hesitant to take action at first. After feeling the disgust of his fellow tribesmen towards him, he felt cruel and tightened his grip on the serrated bone knife thrown by the Black Shark.

Raising the serrated bone knife, the magic lantern fish-man slashed at the neck of the fourth-level magic lantern fish-man.

laugh!

The fish head rolled to the ground.

At the same time, the new leader of the magic lantern fishmen turned around, turned his back to his family, and knelt down directly to Saga.

"My Lord, I will serve you wholeheartedly!"

It lowered its head deeply and said.

At this point, apart from being loyal to Saga, this magic lantern murloc has no other way out.

"Remember, the rights I gave you can be taken back at any time."

A meaningful smile appeared on the golden young dragon's faceplate.

Seeing this execution-like scene, the captured magic lantern fish people rioted again, but were ruthlessly suppressed by the topaz earth dragons and shark tigers.

Saga stretched out his dragon claw, pointed at the Magic Lantern fishmen captives, selected the Magic Lantern fishmen with the strongest resistance, then gathered them together, followed the same pattern, and then selected those who had little sense of identification with their own group. managers get rid of them.

In less than ten minutes.

The heads of the most rebellious Magic Lantern Fishmen fell to the ground. The Magic Lantern Fishmen who were in awe of Saga became managers, and the remaining ordinary Magic Lantern Fishmen were treated as slaves.

The treatment of these magic lantern murlocs then came to an end.
