Under the Red Dragon

"You, want to receive my protection and become my kin?"

With one foot gently pressing on the feigning-death Gold-Eating Beast, Caron sat squatting on the ground and roared loudly, spreading his wide wings to display the dragon's intimidation, while coldly overlooking the group of yelping Kobolds below.

Most of these Kobolds were between ninety centimeters tall, with thin bodies, lizard-like physiques, and brownish-red skin. Their heads were more like those of crocodiles. These Kobolds were all dressed in rags, some even with only a piece of cloth hanging around their waists.

These Kobolds were more like Lizardmen, Lizardmen with diluted dragon blood. Only the constant 'woof woof' barks from their mouths were somewhat consistent with the identity of Kobolds.

The problem was that the barks were in Draconic, but in Caron's ears, it sounded like Indian-accented English.

He needed a certain level of reading comprehension and listening skills to understand what these Kobolds were trying to express from their action-rich language.

"Yes... Yes!" Several particularly strong Kobolds stepped forward and knelt before Caron. The Kobold at the very front excitedly crawled forward to embrace Caron's long and sharp dragon claw.

An increasingly enthusiastic barking sound rang in Caron's ears: "Noble and great True Dragon, your humble admirers have been searching for your tracks!"

"Your scales, more beautiful than moonlight, will harden our skin; your bones, stronger than armor, will support our skulls. The great dragon heart will ignite our magic. We are the dragon's servants, we live for the dragon, and serving you is our only desire."

The Kobolds, still huddled in a group, knelt down following their leader, echoing the Kobold leader's words, and praising the cold-eyed Red Dragon.

Although he found the flattery somewhat awkward and noisy, Caron still enjoyed listening to the Kobolds' words.

No wonder many dragons like to take Kobolds, a race with weak combat abilities, as their kin. Just based on this skill of flattery, Caron felt that these Kobolds could occupy a position under his command.

Moreover, although Kobolds are very weak in combat, this race still has its merits.

Kobolds are warlike and hardworking, good at making traps and mining, and they also value the growth of the Kobold tribe. Therefore, Kobolds will be very obedient to the will of the ruler, especially when their ruler is a dragon.

Caron raised his claw, the huge dragon claw completely enveloping the Kobold leader's head, gently pressing down to indicate his approval.

"I allow you to submit. You will receive my protection, you can freely walk and hunt within the dragon's territory, and you will offer everything to me."

"Thank you, great True Dragon, you are forever our master!" The Kobold leader excitedly kissed Caron's claw,

completely ignoring that the dragon in front of him could easily crush his head. The Kobolds behind him also cheered.

With the protection of the dragon, they would no longer have to live only in dark caves. They could also live freely in the sunlight, have plenty of food, and their tribe would grow rapidly.

Caron didn't pay attention to these things. His consciousness was attracted by the fluctuation of the rune cluster in his mind.

A faint wisp of power intermittently connected the strange runes in the dragon's mind with the Kobolds kneeling below.

This wasn't the so-called power of faith, Caron's inheritance told him, but this power was similar to the thoughts of intelligent creatures.

The rune cluster hidden in the vortex could obviously use the power of intelligent creatures' thoughts as food. The pure energy spat out revolved around the runes, slowly strengthening the power of the vortex.

Most importantly, this extraction of the power of thoughts was not a one-time thing, but a continuous one.

A strange smile bloomed on Caron's dragon face. He felt that he was one step closer to mastering this power.

Although he was still far from fully understanding it, at least now he roughly knew how to use it.

If he worked hard enough, perhaps when he entered the next age of hibernation, that vortex could accumulate enough energy, and he would be further strengthened.

The Kobold warlock, who had stood up, saw the smile on the dragon's face that he couldn't hide, and couldn't help but boldly request to Caron: "Great master, majestic True Dragon, can you bestow the Gold-Eating Beast under your feet to us? We can use this beast to better serve you."

The red beast was silent. Originally, he didn't have a way to tame the Gold-Eating Beast. Giving this beast to the Kobolds to let it explore mineral deposits for the Kobolds was also a good choice, anyway, it was working for him.

But he wanted these Kobolds to understand one thing, that grace and power both came from him, and were not influenced by others at all.

He suddenly opened his mouth and roared loudly: "You actually dare to covet the possessions of a dragon, ha, how interesting and bold." A hot and condensed dragon breath accompanied by the sound of Draconic fell and spewed out, burning the Kobold warlock who made the request to the dragon.

The inextinguishable dragon breath burned fiercely on the Kobold's body. The Kobold rolled and wailed in the flames, and the remaining Kobolds hurriedly knelt down in its wailing, begging for the dragon's forgiveness.

The Kobold leader and the remaining Kobold warlock knocked their heads on the ground like pounding garlic, not even daring to utter a bark.

"If you want me to spare you, then please me. Go back and open your tribe's treasure vault and offer all the treasures to me. I will come with the dragon group and wait for your offerings."

The evil Red Dragon made up his mind, grabbed the motionless Gold-Eating Beast feigning death under his feet, flapped his wings and flew away, gradually moving away, leaving behind the Kobold tribe still kneeling.

Originally, after listening to the Blue Dragon leader Kalite's words, Caron planned to temporarily maintain the current territory of the dragon group, after all, the dragon group's power was not yet strong.

And in the past few years, the territory expanded by the dragon group in a steady and steady manner was about one hundred and fifty li(里: approximately 500 meters) in radius with the mountains as the center, and the forest area was only half of the grassland area.

Perhaps some people think that the land occupied by the dragon group is a bit small, but taking Caron's previous life's Kyoto as an example, Kyoto, including the suburbs, is one hundred and sixty kilometers long from east to west and one hundred and seventy-six kilometers long from north to south.

That is to say, the land currently occupied by the dragon group is about half the size of Kyoto, and the entire country is only about three thousand five hundred li(里: approximately 500 meters) in radius when converted.

In fact, the current territory is completely enough to support the dragon group, which is still in its infancy, and Akkez and Kalite.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

But Caron, who had a new direction, decided to change his strategy. The dragon group will gradually sweep away all intelligent races within the territory in the following time.

Then, when the dragon group passes the next hibernation period and its power increases again, he will lead the dragon group to start a journey of conquest.

But the most important thing at the moment is that Caron wants to become the actual leader of the dragon group, and no longer just the verbal obedience in the mouths of these young dragons and the most powerful playmate in the eyes of the young dragons. He also needs to start now, before everything is formed, to set some rules for the future development of the dragon group.

Strong and powerful wings stirred up a gale. Caron, who made a slightly crazy decision in his heart, roared past the grassland. He is now returning to the dragon nest to summon the young dragons patrolling outside.

·····

Ang, the high-pitched and powerful, long-lasting dragon roar shook the entire canyon dragon nest. Layers of echoes accompanied by Draconic spread from the dragon nest. The Red Dragon, treading on the mountain top with his wings spread and his chest bulging, roared with all his might. This was his call to the dragon group, and also the leader's gathering of the young dragons. He stopped and waited for the young dragons' response.

The black dragon Rosani, who was fishing in the river not far from the forest, was the first to hear Caron's call. Rosani swallowed the crucian carp he was playing with in his claws, came out of the water, and then flapped his wings and roared wildly, flying into the sky.

Antagena, who was stealing food in the orchard, and the White Dragon brothers also responded, flying towards the dragon nest. Then there was the Blue Dragon Dos, the Red Dragon Kleineria, these young dragons were all rushing to the dragon nest.

Akkez, in principle, did not have to pay attention to Caron's call. He was the big dragon of the family, and his status and authority were only above Caron, but out of curiosity, he still rushed to the dragon nest.

When he landed on the cliff top of the dragon nest, he found that all the dragons except Kalite had arrived.

The thin little cubs in his eyes had grown up, and their average bodies of four or five meters long had begun to show the sense of power of a giant dragon, and had the prototype of a strong dragon family.

Moreover, the cohesion of the family far exceeded other dragon groups, and the future leader of the family would also far surpass other dragon groups.

Before the curious Akkez could ask, the strong young dragon leader Caron had already laughed first: "Next is the dragon group's hunting time, Lord Akkez, please come with us."

Akkez looked at Caron in confusion, then looked at the silent volcano cave, and then nodded, "Okay!"
