Chapter 559 Questioning

Looking at Zhou Xu who was sitting above and saying nothing, Bo Lewen, who was kneeling below, felt both uneasy and annoyed.

I had originally thought that after getting rid of the traitor Soros, I would definitely behave well around their king and regain his favor.

Who would have thought that as soon as their king asked a random question, he would poop.

At this moment, Bo Levin was already covered in cold sweat, and he didn't even know what to do.

At this moment, Zhou Xu's voice rang out...

"In short, leave 2,000 troops to garrison the southern border camp, and let the other soldiers return to their original posts."

The most important thing at this moment is to restore productivity, make the internal system run at a high speed, mine more resources, and then achieve better development.

Regarding Zhou Xu's arrangement, Bolevin, who was kneeling below, nodded repeatedly in agreement. The main point was that whatever their king said was the final decision.

This also made Zhou Xu sigh...

[The good thing about this kind of faith is that everyone is a loyal believer, so there is no need to worry about loyalty issues.]

If it were any other force, and if they were lucky enough to suddenly annex a population of nearly seven thousand, then the status of humans within their Great Zhou would be in jeopardy and they would be replaced in a matter of minutes.

But the lizardmen are different. As a Dragon Lord, he is no different from their creator to them. Submission to him is their genetic instinct. Once they betray him, they will lose all their power.

After Zhou Xu figured this out, he could be basically assured about these lizardmen.

At least at this stage, there is no need to worry about their loyalty.

"Come on, follow me to take a look at the various facilities and several nearby residential areas."

There is more than one place where the Lizardmen live. After all, the Lizardmen have a large population, and just this one place can definitely accommodate so many people.

At the same time, this rainforest area covers a vast area. If all the population is concentrated here in the temple, it will not be conducive to their control over this rainforest, and the efficiency of obtaining resources in the area will also be poor.

Hearing this, Bo Levin hurried to catch up.

Today we are still wandering around the Lizardman area centered on the temple.

Compared with the previous time, Zhou Xu’s mentality and situation are different now, and the thoughts in his mind are naturally different as well.

First of all, the houses made of stone bricks and located nearby the temple are clearly passed down from the old civilization era.

At this stage, their Great Zhou really has no way to build a building like this, and the most fundamental problem of building materials cannot be solved.

There are no major problems with the entire layout, so Zhou Xu plans to leave this building area untouched for the time being.

Of course, this does not mean that these houses are definitely better than those in their Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although their building materials were inferior, the houses in their Great Zhou used mortise and tenon structures to construct the frames, which was even more sophisticated than the ancients.

All we can say is that both types of buildings have their own merits.

After taking a quick look at the buildings here, they walked towards the surrounding area of ​​the clan’s territory.

The core buildings are actually residential areas, there is nothing to see, and the surrounding functional facilities are the focus.

The first place they came to was the place where velociraptors were tamed.

When we came here before, this place was empty and there was nothing. When Bolevin and his men evacuated, they took all the velociraptors away.

But things are different now. Although most of the velociraptors are still in the garrison camp in the southern border, there are already twenty or thirty of them tied up in the shed here.

Zhou Xu and his friends had just arrived when they saw a green lizard keeper walking out of the next room with sweat all over his forehead.

When he came here before, Zhou Xu was very curious about these individually separated row houses. Now that he saw them, he naturally wanted to ask about them.

"What is this room used for?"

The green lizard keeper was obviously very tired and didn't notice their presence at all when he walked out.

Now when he heard the sound, he looked up and saw Zhou Xu standing there. He was immediately startled and fell to his knees with a plop.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Because he was too nervous, he stuttered and bit his tongue, and the pain made him cry.

When Zhou Xu saw this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he tried hard not to laugh out loud.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just passing by and I'm a little curious."

While Zhou Xu was speaking, Bo Levin, who was following beside him, urged him when he saw the situation.

"The king is asking you a question, why don't you answer it quickly?!"

Only then did the green lizard keeper notice the presence of their high priest.

With their king standing next to him, the green lizard keeper found that the high priest really had no sense of existence at all.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After calming down a little, he quickly and carefully answered the questions.

"Reporting to the king, this room is used for velociraptors to lay and hatch eggs. I was just helping to lay eggs in it."

[I see, the incubator.]

The thought flashed through his mind, and Zhou Xu was also aroused a little interest.

"Can I have a look?"

"Yes, of course."

Facing Zhou Xu, the green lizard keeper dared not say "no".

He quickly took Zhou Xu to the outside of the incubator and opened the wooden door.

Through the open wooden door, Zhou Xu saw the velociraptor that was currently nestling in the straw pile. He could vaguely see four or five eggs under the velociraptor.

His arrival made the velociraptors inside visibly nervous, even a little anxious. They stared at him intently, their eyes full of vigilance! "My lord, this velociraptor just laid eggs. It is very sensitive and aggressive. It is best not to approach it easily."

The green lizard keeper who said this was extremely cautious, fearing that he might displease their king.

In response, Zhou Xu simply nodded to show his understanding, then turned and walked a few steps away.

The green lizard keeper breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, quickly closed the door, and followed.

"Let me ask you, how many litters can a velociraptor give birth to in a year? How many eggs can it lay in one litter, and how long does it take to hatch them? After hatching, how long does it take before they can be used as a riding unit?"

Although the green lizard keeper was nervous, he answered the professional questions fluently.

"Reporting to the king, a velociraptor gives birth once a year. Generally, each litter can lay two to five eggs, which take about 180 days to hatch. If you want to use it as a mount, it will take at least a year."

Having said that, the green lizard keeper seemed to have thought of something and quickly added another sentence.

"But not every egg can be successfully hatched. Due to the long incubation period, accidents are prone to occur. It is considered good if half of the eggs in a nest can be hatched."

"As long as it can be hatched, the biggest difficulty will be over, but it does not mean there is no risk of abortion."
