A Flame Jackal, about two meters tall, knelt on one knee, panting heavily, his cruel little eyes filled with excitement, looking up at the huge silver dragon on the top of the volcano.
Garen nodded slightly, and the dragon's claws clasped the hot rocks of the volcano.
The platinum dragon eyes look down.
Hundreds of Flame Gnolls gathered together and knelt on the ground like their leader.
There are also jackals in Noah's continent.
These flame gnolls are a variant, and their appearance and habits are roughly the same as those of the gnolls in Noah's continent.
These guys have steel needle-like red bristles from their necks to their tails. Their narrow eyes reveal vicious and cruel emotions. Their bodies are obviously stooped and it seems difficult to straighten their waists. There are criss-crossed sharp teeth in their protruding mouths.
His saliva was drooling unconsciously, and the sharp claws on his palms shone coldly.
Jackals are a very common dragon-like creature.
Like the kobolds, they will follow the footsteps of the real dragon, and then take the initiative to ask for help and choose to become the dragon's dependents.
Jackals are not dragonborn, and do not have weak dragon veins like kobolds, but their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of kobolds, and many jackal clans can also speak some simple dragon language.
It's not fluent and sounds good.
But at least, the dragon language spoken by the jackals does not have the barking sounds of the kobolds, and it sounds more pleasant to the ears.
Although they revered the true dragons and came immediately after hearing the news, they were not the first race to show allegiance.
The Flame Gnoll is already the fourth monster clan that has come to the Fire Dwarf tribe to swear allegiance to Garen after spreading the news of the appearance of the legendary dragon.
The ease with which the legendary true dragon gathers its followers is easier than Garen thought.
After many biological groups arrived at the Fire Dwarf tribe to confirm the information and saw Garon's true form, they immediately chose to swear surrender.
This is related to the inherent strong deterrent power of dragons, and also because the flesh-and-blood lifeforms in the lava demiplane really want a strong backer.
"The great true dragon accepts your allegiance."
"Now, I want to give you your first task."
"Stand up, then retrace your steps, return to your tribe, and announce my arrival to other races on the way."
The silver dragon said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the Flame Gnoll leader bared his fangs, and his red hair was blown by the wind, as if burning with flames.
"Promise to complete the mission, the Flame Jackal will not let you down."
Then, groups of flame gnolls left the foot of the volcano and turned back along the way. When passing some tribes and clans, they, like the fire dwarves, spread the news of Garen's arrival.
It's not just these Fire Gnolls.
The monster clans that had previously chosen to be loyal to Garen all received such orders.
As a result, after only a few days of fermentation, the news that a legendary dragon from the main material world crossed planes and came to this lava world spread like wildfire, spreading to almost all flesh-and-blood creature groups.
Under the curtain of the fiery red sky, time passed calmly and normally.
More and more intelligent biological groups came to the volcano near the fire dwarf tribe. After witnessing the legendary dragon, the speed of light chose to surrender. The speed and efficiency made the fire dwarves feel incredible.
In the past, there were powerful creatures or ethnic groups who wanted to unify the scattered flesh-and-blood life forms to gain higher power and voice, and then find a way out from the pressure of the elemental giants.
But there are no exceptions.
All failed.
Because they do not have legendary level strength, nor do they have the prestige that spreads across many planes like the giant dragons.
True dragons naturally possess a kind of majesty and momentum that belongs to a ruler, and can easily impress other creatures.
A newly adult dragon can gain active allegiance from many creatures, not to mention that Garen is a true dragon at the legendary level and even has two adult dragon heads as followers.
It's less than half a month.
More than half of the flesh-and-blood living groups living in this scorched land have chosen to be loyal to Garen and become the dependent clan of the legendary dragon.
The fire dwarves, who are very proficient in forging and smelting, used the strength of the entire clan to build a temporary dragon nest for Galleon out of metals and ores in just a few days.
This dragon's nest is located on a steep volcanic wall and is quite majestic.
Magma streams winding out of the crater surround the dragon's nest, and flames and smoke billow.
Around the dragon's nest belonging to Garonne, there are two smaller, simpler red dragon's nests, distributed on both sides, guarding Garonne's main dragon's nest like side halls.
These two dragon nests belong to Lowell and Gretha.
Although the two of them are partners, for dragons, even if they are partners, they will not live in the same space. Both parties need independent dragon nests to live in and to store their own treasures to avoid being jealous and coveted by the other party.
A dragon nest cannot accommodate two adult dragons, not even a male and a female.
In the largest dragon's nest, Garon was soaking in the magma pool drawn from the volcano. The dragon's wings were spread out, feeling the flow and caress of the magma evenly.
He no longer personally takes part in the matter of gathering family members.
Because it was too simple, the gathering of family members became a programmed assembly line. The other party saw Garen, marveled, and then swore allegiance. There were no twists and turns in the process. At the beginning, Garen even came forward to accept the allegiance in person, but after more times,
, he was a little bored.
This matter was left to the two red dragons.
Both Lowell and Gresha enjoyed the flattery and praise from the weak creatures, and happily accepted the task of gathering their relatives.
These creatures that live in a world of fire and scorched earth are essentially very suitable to be the followers of the red dragon, and the power of the flaming red dragon is also very attractive to fire-attributed creatures. But at the first sight of the red dragon,
After feeling the scorching heat on the opponent's body, many clans chose to surrender.
In addition, although their direct allegiance is to the red dragon, they all know that the giant silver dragon is the real master of this place.
The mighty red dragon is just one of his followers.
The violent methods Gallon envisioned have no chance to be used now.
The biological clans here are really too sensible. At least until now, no one has chosen to resist and reject the rule of the true dragon.
If it could always be this relaxed, Garen would be happy to see it happen.
But he understood that in the end, force would have to speak.
The true masters of the lava demiplane are the efreets and earth djinn, not the clans of creatures who choose to serve him.
Naturally, it is impossible for the powerful elemental djinn to come to pledge their allegiance as soon as they hear the news about the legendary dragon. They will most likely be thinking about how to get rid of Galleon to eliminate this sudden instability factor.
disappear from the world they control.
In addition, Garen learned noteworthy news from the fire dwarves.
The territories of the fire djinn and the earth djinn are clearly separated, dividing this nearly 100 million square kilometers of demiplane into two major parts.
The fire element is very dense in the area to the east and south. From time to time, dazzling flames will be ignited in the air. Magma is everywhere and flames are raging. It is the territory of the fire giant. A large number of fire element life lives in it. There is also a fire giant.
The majestic city ruled by spirits is made of a material called flame steel stone.
It's called the City of Flame Steel.
In the areas to the west and north, the intensity of the fire element is much weaker. Rugged rocks, hills and mountains rise one after another. The air is filled with falling stone powder, and the life of the earth element is dotted among them.
Here, there are countless towering stone walls that form a vast and deep stone city maze. Flightless living creatures can enter it, and only a handful of lucky people can get out of it.
Earth djinn live in the labyrinth of Stone City.
The area where Garon is currently located is between the territories of the efreet and the earth djinn.
The energy of the fire element and the energy of the earth element are relatively balanced here, and non-element life can barely survive here.
Caught in the middle by the powerful elemental djinn, whenever friction and war break out between them, the flesh-and-blood creatures of the lava demiplane are always pitifully the first to bear the brunt, lingering in the aftermath of the elemental djinn's war.
It can survive to this day purely because the elemental giants do not put flesh and blood life in their eyes.
Occasionally charring some flesh and blood and crushing some bones is a relaxing thing for them, both physically and mentally.
"At the beginning, the energy distribution of the elements here should not be so clear."
Garen thought to himself.
The gathering of fire element life will attract the concentration of fire element energy. In order to survive better, either actively or passively, it will gradually create an environment with extremely dense fire element energy. The same is true for earth element life.
When elemental energy is concentrated, more elemental life will be attracted or directly born.
In this way, it becomes a cycle.
As time passed, the lava demiplane gradually evolved into its current situation.
"Both giants want to destroy each other and turn this place into a pure elemental plane where only one element exists."
"If successful, this place will be equivalent to...a small fire elemental plane or a small earth elemental plane."
Longyi rolled up a handful of magma and poured it directly down his head.
Whoosh!
The blazing magma slowly slid down the silver dragon scales, emitting streams of hot white smoke.
"For elemental beings, the purity of elemental energy is related to the survival of their own race."
"The war between the efreets and the earth djinn is inevitable."
If you want to master the demiplane of lava, you can start with the conflict between the fire element and the earth element. Through the irresolvable conflict between the two parties, provoke a large-scale fight, watch with a cold eye, and finally sit back and stop when both parties are seriously injured.
Fisherman's profit.
However, the above is insufficient strength and requires a steady and steady approach.
If Garen came to the lava demiplane before this slumber, he would probably take this approach.
But now..........
It's no longer needed.
Because there are not many legendary creatures in the lava demiplane.
On the surface, there are only the Lord of Yangang City and the Lord of Stone City.
The hierarchy among the elemental giants is arranged based on their own strength, in a pyramid-like form from top to bottom, with the strong dominating the weak.
The Lord of Yangang City and the Lord of Stone City are the two most powerful elemental giants respectively, and both are legendary-level existences.
As for whether these elemental beings still have secret legendary powers, or whether there are other legends of non-elemental beings hidden in this demiplane, the fire dwarves don't know, and the other clans don't know either.
