Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 188 Lizardman's Request for Help
Florian Silverleaf was very satisfied with Uther's help. Of course, he would reciprocate and try his best to meet some of the needs of "Wangbo Port". This is a very good relationship, helping each other, and each side plays to their strengths and makes up for their shortcomings.

The High Elves naturally have their own advantageous industries and projects, and "Wangbo Port" also has its own advantages.

The fact that the high elves of "Wangbo Port" arrived much earlier than those of "Yinye Port" can help "Yinye Port" a lot.

During this period, Florian Silverleaf often came to Uther for advice in order to deal with the various complex situations in the New World.

The greatest help Florian Silverleaf received was a book called "New World Survival Manual".

The "New World Survival Manual" now published by "Wangbo Port" is of such high value that it is a must-have book for novices coming to the New World and a must-have Bible for all new colonies.

The content of this "New World Survival Manual" covers all aspects of the New World, even introducing many strange herbs, plants, and insects. It is a real encyclopedia.

It includes what medicine to take for what disease, where to find the antidote for what poison, all of which are recorded in great detail, as if they were written by real indigenous people.

And this is indeed the case. The person responsible for writing this "New World Survival Manual" is actually a genuine native.

That’s right, this “New World Survival Manual” was written by Slaco under his full responsibility. As a true “jungle native” of the New World, the “New World Survival Manual” he wrote is full of gold content. It is something that can truly save lives.

Since its publication, this book has been in short supply in "Wangbo Port", and now even the high elves are eager to get a copy.

There is no way. When you use this thing, it is really a matter of great importance, even a matter of life and death. The difference between having it or not may very well be the difference between life and death.

Players are now inseparable from this book. It is like an encyclopedia guide for them, which saves them a lot of trouble. Some people even wanted to "taste hundreds of herbs" to see if they could get any achievement tasks, but now they don't have to do that. Slaco even marked the plants they have never seen.

This book even comes with pictures. Although they are all real "paintings", Slaco does have a little talent for painting, and the plants and animals he painted are still highly recognizable.

As of now, the biggest problem with this "New World Survival Manual" is that its production is too low. There is no choice but to hand-copy it.

Even if you work overtime to copy it, it can't be done quickly. The accuracy of this thing is very important. It needs to be carefully proofread and there cannot be any mistakes. After all, if there is a mistake in this thing, it is really possible that people will die.

The arrival of the high elves actually helped increase production a lot. There were many magicians among them who could use magic to transcribe, which was much faster than having people copy it bit by bit.

In short, "Wangbo Port" is working hard to copy this "New World Survival Manual" so that everyone can use it.

"Hiss! Governor Uther, we need help!"

In Wangbo Port, in Uther's office, his "phone" rang. The caller was Slako, and his tone was very anxious.

"What's wrong? Slaco, are you in any trouble?"

Uther asked, he was a little curious, something happened on Slaco's side, which was a little unexpected for him.

During this period, there has been no news from Slaco and Zandata. They just transported obsidian to "Wangbo Port" in an orderly manner, which means that everything is normal there.

"Hiss! We need food here!"

Slaco yelled, which made Uther even more confused.

"Food? Haven't you always been self-sufficient?"

It was normal for Uther to feel strange. After all, these lizardmen had always relied on hunting and picking fruits for food. They did not farm and lived entirely off the land and the sea. The New World's unique natural conditions could fully satisfy them.

The living environment is too comfortable. People can eat enough just by lying down every day, so most people will not be very enterprising.

That's why Uther was puzzled. Why was there still a lack of food at the obsidian mine? Did they even refuse to hunt for themselves?
"Hiss! Because we've gathered so many Lizardmen, the number of Lizardmen at the Obsidian Mine has now exceeded three thousand!"

Slaco shouted, his tone full of pride, and it was obvious that he was very satisfied with his and Zandata's recent achievements.

"More than three thousand?!"

Hearing this number, Uther couldn't help but scream. He was really a little scared because this number was really exaggerated.

The number of lizardmen under Slako and Zandata was just over 500 before, including two or three hundred lizardmen, more than two hundred green lizards, and twenty or thirty giant lizards, totaling only over 500.

As a result, after this period of time, Slako and Zandata made a fortune quietly, and the number of lizardmen under their command increased several times. This naturally shocked Uther.

"Hiss! That's right! Governor Uther! Please send us some food quickly!"

Slaco kept chattering and talking about his needs.

"How much do you need?"

Uther calmed himself down and asked.

"Hiss! Lots and lots!"

Slaco did not give a specific number because he did not know how much was needed, but he felt that the gap was very large.

There was no way. Slaco had never led so many lizardmen. He could only make an estimate, but the estimate was beyond his cognition. This problem could only be left to Uther.

"Hiss! We need at least twice as much food as the same number of humans!"

However, after a pause, Slaco gave a rough number, which was the result given by Zandata. It was obvious that Zandata's management ability was far superior to Slaco's.

"That's six thousand people."

Uther thought about it and felt that this was not a big problem. "Wangbo Port" could definitely afford it. The current "Wangbo Port" was no longer the "Wangbo Port" before. The grain output far exceeded expectations, giving "Wangbo Port" extremely strong grain reserves.

"I'll arrange for someone to deliver it right away."

Uther answered simply, these more than 3,000 lizardmen must be kept!

Uther knew very well that if the food supply was insufficient, Slako and Zandata would definitely not be able to keep these lizardmen. Think about it, if they can't even get food to eat after following you, who would follow you?
"Hiss! Thank you so much!"

After hearing Uther's assurance, Slaco immediately became happy. The fruits of his and Zandata's labor could finally be preserved!
Just as Uther had imagined, if food was scarce, he and Zandatta would not be able to force the lizardmen to stay. They would have to let them go and hunt. Once they were allowed to leave, it would be difficult to gather them again. Although the lizardmen were not very intelligent, they still had memories. They would definitely remember that they were not able to get enough food when they followed you, and they would definitely not follow you again.

After hanging up the phone, Uther immediately made arrangements. He contacted Hellion directly. This time, the escort work would be entrusted to Hellion and his Magrath Legion. After all, to go deep into the jungle, they still needed strong escort.

The amount of food being transported this time is quite large. If something happens on the way, it won't be a serious injury, but it will definitely cause some delays.

"Leave it to us."

Hellion, who was called, accepted the task immediately. Motreo followed Hellion. He was Hellion's deputy general.

Under Uther's command, "Port Wangbo" took quick action, and the storage department quickly completed the loading of food. The Magrath Legion left "Port Wangbo" along with the transport convoy and entered the jungle along the newly built road.

There is now a proper road leading from "Wangbo Port" into the jungle, which is the road leading to Karen's "Bloodstone Castle".

The location of the Lizardmen's "Obsidian Mine" is even further west than the "Bloodstone Castle" and deeper into the jungle, so the roads can only lead to the vicinity of the "Bloodstone Castle". Going further in, Hellion will have to lead the transport team through thick and thin.

"There's no road ahead, Hellion."

Motreo led his men to clear the way in front of the transport team. At the end of the road, Motreo stopped and looked at the dense forest ahead. He felt a little overwhelmed. It was really difficult for the transport team to move forward.

"It's because there's no road that we need to open one. Once we've walked through it, there will be a road here!"

When Hellion came to the front, he was very calm. He directly commanded his soldiers to start cutting through the thorns and clearing the way. It is not quite accurate to say that they were cutting through the thorns. It should be said that they were cutting down trees and clearing the way.

Under the leadership of Hellion, the Magrath Legion cut down trees along the way, uprooted all the trees that blocked their way forward, and then simply leveled the road, which could be said to have been extended.

Although the road that was opened up was just a simple dirt road and not even very flat, it was enough for the transport team to move forward.

"Hellion is a guy with strong ability to get things done."

On the watchtower of "Bloodstone Castle", Karen watched the transport team gradually go away. He was quite satisfied with Hellion. From the first time he met this guy until now, he had never doubted Hellion's ability to do things. It had nothing to do with character, ambition or anything like that. Hellion was just very capable.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that this guy Hellion is acting on purpose.

The place where they went deep into the jungle was very close to the "Bloodstone Castle". The newly opened road extended not far from the "Bloodstone Castle". He might have guessed that Karen was paying attention, so he deliberately showed it.

But it doesn't matter. Judging from his actions, not his heart, and no matter what his purpose is, what Hellion does is satisfactory.

The transport team opened up the road all the way and finally arrived at the "Obsidian Mine" successfully.

Because of the presence of Hellion, Motrio and the other members of the Magrath Legion, the time spent on the journey was not that much.

When the transport team arrived at the "Obsidian Mine", the lizardmen gathered there had not yet dispersed due to food problems.

After all, lizardmen also have the habit of storing food. With green lizards around, the living conditions of the lizardmen are relatively stable. Only those lizardmen groups without many green lizards are completely nomadic.

The "Obsidian Mine" was originally a very stable place, and there was a lot of food stored in the warehouse, enough to sustain it for a while.

"Hiss! Finally here! If they don't come soon, our food will be gone!"

Seeing Hellion bringing people over with a number of transport vehicles, Slaco was very excited. The rescue team finally arrived!
"We didn't lose any time along the way. We hurried along, but we finally caught up."

Hellion smiled and looked at the seemingly endless number of lizardmen not far away. A trace of fear flashed in his eyes. To be honest, these more than 3,000 lizardmen were still very oppressive.

Although he is not weak in terms of individual strength and no one among these lizardmen can beat him, the pressure from numbers is real.

Even he couldn't possibly defeat these 3,000 Lizardmen! No, even if he brought the entire Magrath Legion together, he couldn't possibly defeat these 3,000+ Lizardmen.

"Hiss! Thank you! Hellion."

Slaco thanked Hellion. He did not notice the fear in Hellion's eyes, and even if he did, he would not care.

With Lord Karen backing them up, there's nothing Hellion can do even if he's unhappy with them. Slaco doesn't believe Hellion would dare to do anything.

"Hiss, thank you."

Zandata also came over, and the female green lizard spoke. She had mastered the "Imperial Common Language" very well.

“It’s all what should be done.”

Hellion had a smile on his face, not showing any of his previous fear.

Soon, the food was carried down by the green lizards and lizard people. Under the control of Zandata and Slako, the lizard people and humans lived in peace and no conflict occurred during the whole process.

"The mission is accomplished, so we'll go back."

Seeing that the food had been unloaded, Hellion took the initiative to say goodbye.

"Hiss! Okay, okay!"

Slaco had no intention of keeping Hellion any longer. He and Zandata were busy winning over the hearts of the lizardmen and consolidating their rule over these more than 3,000 lizardmen.

There are more than 3,000 lizardmen, of which there are only more than 500 original subordinates and more than 2,500 newcomers. Of course, they need to consolidate their rule and not let the newcomers take over.

Hellion led his men back along the original route, and the journey back was much easier. However, Hellion did not just go back directly. He took his men to repair the road, making it smoother and wider.

This road will definitely be useful in the future, and the transportation of obsidian from the "Obsidian Mine" here can be more formal.

The lizard people used to rely entirely on the lizardmen and giant lizards to carry things on their backs, so there wasn't even a drivable road.
