    Saru didn’t seem to be joking. The leaders of the first monster tribes that made contact with him looked at each other, and soon left.


    Each of their tribe’s settlements were different, but almost all were far away from the Soaring Dragon Legion at this time.


    So, there was some ovep in their journey back home.


    Previously, the Gray Bearman and a ck Stone Monster who talked with Saru walked together.


    “ck Stone, do you think the Lizardman’s words are credible?”


    The Gray Bearman intermittently asked along the way, but the ck Stone Monster mostly remained a listener.


    So the Gray Bearman didn’t get much of a definite answer, but he didn’t mind.


    He had known this ck Stone Monster for a long time, and from the beginning, it had been as unresponsive as a rock.


    Well, most of the monster’s body was indeed made up of rock.


    As they spoke, they arrived at a fork in the road.


    Their two tribes were on opposite sides, and here, they finally had to part ways.


    “Alright, I’ll go from here. If anything importantes upter, let’s keep in touch!”


    As usual, the Gray Bearman waved goodbye to the ck Stone Monster as they parted ways.


    But before he could take a few steps, he couldn’t help but stop, staring in shock at his abdomen.


    His once soft and beautiful fur was now dyed red with blood, and a hand made of ck rocks maliciously pierced through his abdomen from behind.


    There was no doubt that it was a fatal injury. After the ck Stone Monster retracted its arm from the mutted body, the Gray Bearman felt his strength rapidly draining away along with the blood.


    With difficulty, he looked back at the ck Stone Monster he had always considered a friend, and with hisst bit of strength, asked, “Why? why!?”


    The ck Stone Monster’s cold, green eyes stared at him, and with a dull voice, slowly dered, “You, are my sincerity.”


    “So that’s it? ”


    A bitter expression appeared on the Gray Bearman’s face, and he copsed to the ground, lifeless.


    Not long after, the ck Stone Monster’s tribeunched a surprise attack on the Gray Bearman’s tribe.


    These two tribes used to have a good rtionship, so the Bearmen never imagined that their hunting partners would suddenly turn against them.


    Unsurprisingly, the Gray Bearman’s tribe was brutally ughtered by the ck Stone Monsters they had consideredrades, dying in confusion and anger.


    After that, Saru fulfilled his promise, and the ck Stone Monsters were incorporated into the Soaring Dragon Legion.


    Simrly, that night, simr events began to unfold among other tribes.


    Monsters were always greedy and selfish. Most of them chose to target not their usual mortal enemies, but their unguarded partners.


    Once these monster tribes submitted their allegiance to join the Soaring Dragon Legion and sessfully preserved themselves, other monster tribes began to follow suit.


    At the same time, Saru used various channels to spread this message to other monster races in the untamednds.


    And so, chaos began.


    Facing a powerful enemy, most monster tribes chose to strike first under fear and wariness toward other tribes around them.


    The doctrines of striking first to gain the upper hand and “better you than me” applied even in this world.


    Except for a few remote monster tribes, in most cases, the Soaring Dragon Legion didn’t even need to take action themselves.


    Arge number of monster tribes, seeking to join the Soaring Dragon Legion to preserve themselves, had no choice but to hunt down weaker tribes around them.


    After about half a month, the untamednds had almost entirely fallen under the control of the Soaring Dragon Legion.


    About a third of the monster tribes had submitted their pledges of allegiance to join the Soaring Dragon Legion, and more than a third of the monster tribes perished amid the chaos.


    The remaining small portion consisted of weaker tribes hiding in remote, barren areas.


    There was no need for Saru to worry, as the recently-joined monsters of the Soaring Dragon Legion eagerly rushed to help.


    It was only because the location was too remote that it took some time to find these tribes.


    By the end of the week, the entire untamednds had beenpletely cleaned up.


    Although over half of the monster tribes in the untamednds were lost in this chaos,


    it also meant that food supplies here had be more plentiful, and with the characteristics of these monsters, it wouldn’t be long before the area became crowded again.


    From then on, this became Otto’s territory. Any fool who dared to defy the great Silver Dragon Lord here would be dealt with ordingly.


    And the entire Skyreach Mountain Range, except for the most harsh environments in the Land of Red mes, had fallen under Otto’s control.


    After engraving the Blood Covenant on some local monster leaders, such as the backstabbing ck Stone Monster, Saru did not return to the Land of the Soaring Dragon.


    There were still some important things the great Silver Dragon Lord had entrusted him with.


    Through the Communication Scale, Saru contacted Longfang, who was in the Land of the Soaring Dragon. By that night, arge horde of Chimeras had flown in from the sky.


    Under the Chimeras, there were huge ck iron boxes being carried, and after dropping these boxes off at the designated locations, the Chimeras went back the way they came.


    Saru didn’t need to arrange for anyone to open those boxes. As soon as they felt they hadnded safely, the boxes opened by themselves from the inside.


    Out crawled one me Lizard after another from the specially-built boxes. These pure elemental creatures instantly dispelled the darkness around them, acting like bright light bulbs near Saru.


    The main reason Otto wanted Saru to take control of the untamednds as soon as possible was to send spies to the Land of Red mes gradually.


    He was very interested in the Demon Lord who had severely wounded Lars Lait, and since demons were one of the greatest enemies of the Prime Material ne, they had to be guarded against by nature.


    Considering the Land of Red mes’ unique environment, few creatures could survive there except for the pure elemental me Lizards.


    Through the untamednds, the eyes of the me Lizards would be ced in most of the area.


    If anything unusual happened there, like the Demon Army preparing for another invasion, Otto would be the first to learn of it through these me Lizards.
