◎I have nothing to worry about anymore!◎
Although he also loves the game "Age of Warcraft", the goblin Xili found that his life has changed dramatically since all the demons started playing the game.
He used to be a rather introverted goblin. After being in the Demon King's Palace for so long, he only made two friends besides his own people, the Winged Demon York and the Demon Dragon. But now, even the demons working with him in the construction team would come to him during breaks and curiously ask him about the goblins' way of survival.
"But it's okay. Everyone is very friendly and I am happy to share my life as a goblin.
"Save skills," Xili stuffed a piece of fried meat into his mouth depressedly, "but Xiaolong, can you stop talking about blood elves every three sentences! I don't want to know how cute blood elf cubs are, okay!"
"But they are really cute," the dragon opened his eyes wide, "and I'm not going to talk about our blood elves this time. I want to ask how to grow potatoes."
The Winged Demon York, who was concentrating on drinking soup, raised his head and asked: "Did you find potatoes?"
"I followed the method Xili taught me yesterday and took the blood elves to the Gobi Desert to dig it up," Xiaolong nodded happily, "Our tribe is located not far from the Gobi Desert. We are so lucky!"
"I also want to find a tribe," said the Winged Demon York, envious. "I control the Undead, and I have to deal with a bunch of monsters every day. Last time, a monster even asked me for a mate, and I was almost scared to death."
Xiaolong shook his head with pride, and listened carefully to what the goblin Xili said about the method of growing potatoes. He took out his mobile phone, wrote it down in his memo, and repeated it silently in his mind, trying to remember it firmly and accurately.
...
...
When Xiaolong returned home in the evening, he opened the game and found the blood elf chieftain, trying to persuade him to allow him to conduct potato planting experiments in the tribe's land.
Although the NPCs in the game are not intelligent enough to communicate freely, the dragon has found potatoes, which is equivalent to unlocking the prerequisites for potato planting and can directly start the planting branch quest.
After receiving the keywords, the blood elf chief immediately issued a task to study potato planting. Xiaolong received the task prompt and happily organized the blood elves to start digging the underground lava river.
Without the right tools and demons as skilled at digging as the goblins, the blood elves' progress was extremely slow. But Xiaolong was already content. He led the team hunting everywhere every day, and after returning to the tribe, he would check on the excavation of the underground lava river.
"It will be finished in thirty years at most!" He encouraged the blood elves and picked up a stone to help shovel the soil. "Let's work hard!"
Suddenly, the heaven and earth shook, and a huge roar sounded from a distance.
Xiaolong's heart sank, and he suddenly felt a chilling sense of crisis. Just as he raised his head, he saw a blood elf running towards him in panic in the distance: "Greedy Beast! There's a Greedy Beast coming!"
The first reaction was that the meat of the Greedy Beast was really delicious. Xiaolong was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he was now controlling the character of the blood elf, and he could not defeat the powerful Greedy Beast at all - not only could he not defeat it, this Greedy Beast was fully capable of destroying the entire tribe.
"Come here and organize a resistance!"
He shouted, his mind flashing through the habits and racial abilities of the Greedy Beasts that he had learned in class, as well as the fragile fighting strength of the Blood Elves, who could even be injured in a head-on fight with the Fire Weasel Pigs, and his heart became more and more desperate.
The blood elf chieftain had already rushed over, and majestically cut open his arm, drawing blood, and condensing it into a sharp long knife.
"All blood elves, don't panic, pick up your weapons!" the clan leader said in a deep voice, "The mighty and powerful dragon second only to the world, you must take all the cubs and escape from the passage behind the mountain of the clan immediately."
Even though they had heard the escape route from the clan leader, no blood elf retreated. They silently cut themselves and used their blood to form weapons.
The tribe leader looked at the dragon seriously and said, "The future of the tribe is in your hands."
Xiaolong stood there at a loss, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the time when he attacked the Demon King's Palace and the demons who stood up to fight him to the death even though they knew they could not win.
It was not until the chief urged him again that he came back to his senses. He quickly clicked to agree, found all the cubs, and led them towards the back mountain.
The roar of the Greedy Beast and the howl of the Blood Elves could be heard behind him, and the strong smell of blood filled the air.
He led the cubs to the back mountain, moved away the huge rock that blocked the passage, and urged the cubs to run in quickly. His hand holding the cave entrance trembled slightly, and the little dragon heard the vibration getting closer and closer.
The Greedy Beast was stepping on the blood and flesh on the ground and rushing towards the back mountain.
The dragon, still confused by this sudden disaster, suddenly calmed down.
He even did the math calculations he hated the most in his mind - there were still four cubs that had not entered the cave, and with the speed of the Greedy Beast, it would only have time for one demon to rush into the cave before it rushed to the back mountain.
If he left these cubs behind immediately and went into the cave himself, he could leave the cave alive.
With the survival experience of the blood elves he has gained so far, as well as the weapons, food and potatoes in his backpack, he can definitely survive on his own. Even if his points progress slower than in the tribe, as long as he stays put, he will soon be able to reach seventh place on the leaderboard.
The dragon subconsciously looked at the fire weasel tusk necklace that he always kept in his backpack.
He gritted his teeth and pushed the cub, who was trying to climb, into the cave: "Go forward, don't look back."
Controlling the character, he rushed towards the Tanmao beast, bit his wrist hard, and the blood gathered into a long knife, which he chopped towards the Tanmao beast's weakest part, the head.
He had learned the weakness of the Tanmao Beast in class, so he swallowed the food in his backpack to quickly recover his health. He forcibly stopped the Tanmao Beast that was charging recklessly, and successfully attracted the Tanmao Beast's hatred.
He controlled the character and looked towards the cave between the cliffs, and happened to see the back of the last cub as it crawled into the cave.
A line of small words appeared at the top of the screen.
"Achievement: No worries"
Xiaolong was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, his eyes became more determined: "Yes, I have nothing to worry about!"
The bloody long sword in his hand became sharper and sharper, and with the determination to avenge blood vengeance, he swung it towards the soft belly of the Tanmao beast that was inadvertently exposed.
Then he was easily kicked to death by the Tanmao beast.
The words "Start over?" appeared on the screen again. Xiaolong put down his phone and sat on the rattan mat in a daze.
“Wooooooaaaa——”
The crying was deafening.
Warren was studying the card situation in the Demon King's Palace and trying to find the reason why the system had not returned for so long. He was startled by a demon dragon that rushed in and hugged him and cried loudly. He helplessly touched the little dragon that buried itself in him and refused to get up.
"What's wrong?" he asked gently, "Did anyone bully you?"
Warren actually didn't think that anyone would dare to bully the dragon after the incident with the Skeleton Warriors, and he was still thinking that the little dragon might have had a quarrel with his friends.
The dragon cried for a long time, soaking Warren's coat. Then he raised his head and wiped his tears, sobbing: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have attacked the Demon King's Palace and shouldn't have breathed fire at the barracks."
Warren raised his eyebrows in surprise and stroked the little dragon's horn, thinking that this matter might be more serious than he thought: "It doesn't matter, you have already paid the price for your wrong behavior - remember? At that time, I punished you to do voluntary labor for many days to help rebuild the military camp."
He nodded with a sob, and thinking of the blood elves that were destroyed, the little dragon felt very aggrieved. He pursed his lips, and before he could say anything else, he started crying again, pulling the corner of the demon king's clothes to wipe his tears.
"I want to eat the meat of the gluttonous beast," he cried, gesturing vigorously with his hands in the air, "Eat lots and lots of gluttonous beast meat, eat it all up!"
Warren blinked, and when he heard the word "Ganmao Beast", he finally realized what Xiaolong had been through.
As the real culprit behind adding recipes and race-triggered extinction mechanisms into the game, he designed the entire process of decision-making between himself and his cubs when the demons added to the race trigger the conditions for genocide, to ensure that the achievement task of [No Obstacles] can be successfully completed.
However, although he thought that most demons would choose the cubs without hesitation, he did not expect that the little dragon who had once rebelled against the dragon clan would make the same choice.
Seeing Xiaolong's pitiful look, Warren couldn't help but feel a little guilty for bullying a child. He wiped the tears from Xiaolong's face with his fingers and said, "Don't be sad. I'll take you to eat dried meat of the Tanmao beast tomorrow."
Since the Demon Beast Contract Ball was obtained, there is no need to worry about the out-of-control Greedy Beasts harming the demon clan. The Demon King's Palace has already raised more than forty Greedy Beasts, and will soon form a large-scale Greedy Beast ranch.
The little dragon held his tail, his eyes red, nodded aggrievedly, leaned on the devil's shoulder, and told the whole story in a complaining tone.
"I've had the blood elves start growing potatoes. As long as we can dig out the underground lava river, we won't have to worry about the blood elves getting hurt or even dying when they leave their homeland to hunt," he said angrily. "But that nasty Greedy Beast suddenly barged in without any warning! If I see Greedy Beasts outside the royal city in the future, I will bite them all to death!"
Warren listened patiently and did not remind him that it was not feasible to let the blood elves, who were not good at digging and could not touch the magma, to grow potatoes. He just rubbed the little dragon's messy head and said, "I am proud of you."
The little dragon whimpered and buried himself in the demon king's arms again, this time not to wipe his tears, but to hide his blushing face.
"Okay, don't be sad," Warren patted his back, "How about coming with me to see the festival plan for the Hundred Demons Carnival tomorrow?"
As he was about to pick up the slate beside him, he saw a flash of golden light from the Demon King's Crown he had placed on the table, and his eyes suddenly brightened.
