I am the final demon god

In the underground space, nearly a hundred dog-headed monsters knelt before a black, ferocious dragon-shaped monster, with the leading dog-headed shaman constantly worshipping, creating an inexplicable sense of epic grandeur.

The black-armored earth dragon, nearly three meters tall at the shoulder, stood amidst a pile of monster corpses, looking down at them.

It was contemplating whether to kill them all to absorb experience (energy), or to subdue them and make them its subordinates, considering the benefits of subduing them... and so on.

The black-armored earth dragon's eyes lit up.

"I accept your submission."

The black-armored earth dragon growled, its roar, mixed with mental fluctuations, spreading outwards, but only the kobold shaman among these monsters, who knew a little bit of the abyssal demon language, could understand it.

The dog-headed shaman paused, a look of astonishment appearing in his murky eyes, seemingly not expecting the black-armored earth dragon to 'speak'.

Its original procedure was a routine for dealing with powerful underground monsters.

When faced with a powerful monster that you can't defeat, first submit to it, offer it some flesh and blood and send it away. If the powerful monster doesn't leave, turn around and run away to join another tribe.

oooooooo! !

The kobold shaman jumped up and howled loudly at all the kobolds. Immediately, the kobolds who were originally terrified got up and cheered.

When these dog-headed monsters looked at the hideous black-armored earth dragon again, they felt no fear, only fanatical worship and excitement.

As for the monsters that were killed by the roar of the Black Armored Earth Dragon, they were simply forgotten by these dog-headed monsters, which made it impossible for the Black Armored Earth Dragon to understand their 'thoughts'.

But it doesn't matter, it's too lazy to investigate.

"Roar! Tell them to go and mine for me!" The black-armored earth dragon roared, its roar mixed with mental fluctuations sweeping over the dog-headed shaman.

"Great Lord of the Abyss, what is ore?" The dog-headed shaman looked up, a puzzled expression on his face.

The black-armored earth dragon growled, "They are some stones underground that contain extraordinary elements. These things are useful to me. Let them all go and dig them up."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Great Abyss Lord."

With the clear instructions given, the kobold shaman turned around, waved his staff, and shouted "Ula!" to all the kobold monsters, who responded fervently.

I just don't know how the dog-headed shaman communicated with these monsters.

When the Black Armored Earth Dragon saw some of the dog-headed monsters start digging at the ground, others jumped into the pool with a splash, and still others carried stone hammers and charged towards the hills.

"Wake up, don't sleep yet. Put one of those four ores into your soul space yesterday; I have a use for it."

In the dead of night, Chen Zheng, who was fast asleep, was suddenly awakened by the mental cue of the chuunibyou Chen Zheng. He glanced at the time in a daze and saw that it was only a little past four in the morning.

Although he didn't know what he was going to do, Chen Zheng still got up, opened the drawer, and took out a red ore that had been plundered for its active elements.

But when he placed the fist-sized ore into his soul space,

what!

Chen Zheng was surprised to find that the soul space seemed to have grown much larger. The space that was originally one cubic meter in size was now two meters in height and width.

"It must be a change brought about by the breakthrough in rank." Chen Zheng quickly figured out the reason, and with a thought, he descended into the Abyss Hell.

He was a little puzzled as to what the guy wanted the ore for.

oooooooo! !

Hoho! !

On a hillside tens of meters high, a ferocious black dragon stood proudly, its more than six-meter-long body casting a large shadow in the dim light above the cave.

Below the hillside, nearly a hundred dog-headed monsters brandished crude weapons and howled, creating a frenzied atmosphere filled with a primal energy.

"Uh... what's going on?" Chen Zheng was a little confused when he saw this scene.

Chen Zheng, in a smug tone, said, "When I was farming earlier, I discovered this monster tribe. I originally planned to kill them all to plunder the experience, but it triggered a plot event."

As he spoke, the chuunibyou Chen Zheng mentally transmitted his memories of the previous battle to Chen Zheng, including the reason for wanting the ore.

These kobolds are too stupid. Although they can understand simple commands, they cannot comprehend more detailed information, including that shaman monster.

Therefore, we need a piece of ore that we mined yesterday as a reference.

Roar!

The Black Armored Earth Dragon roared, signaling the Dog-Headed Shaman to come up, while its already somewhat enormous right paw gently placed a fist-sized red ore on the ground.

Glug glug!

Upon arriving at the hillside, the dog-headed shaman first sang praises to the black-armored earth dragon, then picked up the ore with both hands and examined it carefully.

That earnestness seemed to indicate a desire to memorize every single texture of the stone.

Once he was certain he had memorized the appearance of the ore the great abyss lord needed, the kobold shaman turned around, raised the ore, and roared at the kobolds below with dramatic intonation.

"Awoooooo!!" The dog-headed monsters below roared wildly again, leaving the Black Armored Earth Dragon puzzled as to what they were so excited about.

Soon, under the command of the shaman monster, the kobold monsters split into three teams and surged toward three different passage entrances.

The target is the edge of the river where flames burn in the mouth of the Black Armored Earth Dragon; only in that environment can one find ore.

"Done."

Chen Zheng, a student in his second year of middle school, wagged his tail with satisfaction: "The order has been given. Now we just wait for them to come back with the collected samples. If they are not up to standard, we will collect them again."

"I never thought these monsters could be subdued."

Chen Zheng pondered: "Have you ever thought about letting these monsters help you find prey? They are definitely more familiar with the surrounding environment than you are, and know where powerful monsters are lurking."

As soon as Chen Zheng finished speaking, the black-armored earth dragon's eyes lit up.

"It seems possible."

"Also, since you were able to subdue these dog-headed monsters, does that mean it's possible to subdue other social monsters with a certain level of intelligence as well?"

"This includes some monsters with scouting and healing abilities; you don't have to kill and eat them all, you can tame them."

"Having a large number of monsters as subordinates is like having a map view; the extent of that view depends on how many monsters you subdue."

"Once you have more minions, they can help you deplete the health of some powerful monsters, pull monsters, and gather them together. This is much more efficient than killing them one by one."

The more Chen Zheng spoke, the brighter the black-armored earth dragon's eyes became, with a dangerous yet excited glint in its yellow vertical pupils.

"I understand what you mean. From now on, I will switch from the survival mode of individual upgrades to the strategy mode of imperial conquest."

"Have that kobold shaman redistribute the resources. Send some of the kobold monsters to mine, and others to scout and explore the map."

"I get it, hehe, let's open the map first." Chen Zheng, who was a bit of a chuunibyou, was very excited.

Chen Zheng and Chen Zheng's consciousness (in a chuunibyou sense) then talked for a long time to determine the direction of future development.

Subduing more monsters would not only benefit the Black Armored Earth Dragon, but also greatly benefit Chen Zheng.

Once the Black Armored Earth Dragon's forces are fully established, they will be able to develop the resources deep within the abyss on a large scale, continuously reaping extraordinary minerals and spiritual herbs.

His strength will then skyrocket.

In the morning, just after the first class in Class 9 of the Rune Department, Jiang Mo turned around and looked at Chen Zheng, who had a smile on his face, and asked curiously, "Chen Zheng, did you find some money this morning?"

"No."

"Then you kept smiling."

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about something happy."

Chen Zheng smiled. He couldn't very well say that his other body had subdued a group of demons in the abyss last night.

The morning passed quickly, and after lunch, Chen Zheng arrived at the Martial Arts Department office building.

There weren't many people in the lobby on the first floor at this time, so he stood in front of the unmanned verification device.

Beep! "Runic system student ID 64019852 has applied for a martial arts realm update."

"Verification successful. Please follow the instructions below."

"Qi and blood strength test: Please place your hand on the test area and circulate your Qi and blood... If your Qi and blood strength meets the standard, you pass."

"Please clench your fists, gather your strength, and strike the force test board with all your might."
