112: Subdue the Hydra Serpent!
"Ice Lion, are you a Mythical Bloodline descendant?"
The Hydra Serpent did not answer; it was still very conflicted about its defeat.
Since its birth more than half a year ago, it had never encountered an opponent.
Even against that Black Abyss Unicorn Python, it was a draw!
Now, it had actually lost to an Ice Lion that looked plain and unremarkable, but possessed terrifyingly exaggerated combat power?
Chen Mo shook his head, then said calmly:
"I am a newly risen creature in this world."
"But that is not important; what is important is that I defeated you."
"Submit to me, and I promise that one day I will take you back to the West Sea Ruins and make it your territory."
"Furthermore, once my Secret Realm produces Tier 3 divine medicine, I will prioritize giving it to you."
Chen Mo attempted his first round of persuasion.
Creatures with Mythical Bloodline might have some arrogance and not be so easy to subdue.
From the Sea Siren Leader, Chen Mo learned that the Hydra Serpent once lived in a Secret Realm in the deep sea, but it was eroded by the Black Abyss.
The Hydra Serpent was forced to take them away.
And coming here this time was because it sensed the possibility of other Secret Realms existing.
They wanted to conquer the Secret Realm here, then obtain Tier 3 divine medicine, thereby advancing to the King Realm, and then kill their way back to the West Sea Ruins.
The Hydra Serpent's biggest current needs were, first, Tier 3 divine medicine, and second, revenge.
Chen Mo chose to address the root cause.
Now, there were two choices before the Hydra Serpent.
To die in obscurity, or to revive the glory of the Hydra race and return to the West Sea Ruins Secret Realm!?
"Roar!" (Lion King, I am willing to submit to you.)
To Chen Mo's surprise, the Hydra Serpent agreed directly.
He had originally thought the Hydra Serpent would need to weigh its options internally before possibly agreeing.
Even the Sea Siren Leader's persuasion wasn't needed.
The Hydra Serpent was very clear-headed.
Can Mythical Bloodline be eaten?
Staying alive is the hard truth!
Seeing their deity choose to submit so cleanly, the Sea Siren Leader also breathed a sigh of relief.
If the Sea God had refused to yield even in death, they naturally would have chosen to continue fighting until the last drop of blood was shed.
"Roar!"
With the Hydra Serpent's submission, all the sea clans also laid down their resistance.
Of course, there weren't many sea clans left with the power to resist anyway.
Fortunately, most of the sea clans were only injured, not dead.
After discovering that the scales of victory had tipped completely to their side, Aisha let the Extraordinary Creatures of the Ice Lion Kingdom try not to kill the sea clan creatures.
These sea clans would very likely soon become part of the Ice Lion Kingdom as well.
"A wise choice."
"Now, sign the contract!"
The Ice Sky Elf beside Chen Mo took out a beast skin scroll, which was the same [Clan Contract] as the one used with the Siren Sea Monster clan.
After confirming the contract was correct, the Hydra Serpent injected its Ice-Type Spiritual Energy, completing the contract.
"How big is your territory?"
After completing the contract, Chen Mo asked.
The Hydra Serpent shook its head; it had never cared about territory size or the number of clansmen.
Except for the Siren Sea Monster clan that followed it from the deep sea city, the Unicorn Dolphin clan, and the killer whale clan.
Other dependents were just little brothers it had subdued while searching for divine medicine.
"Then you must have discovered quite a few divine medicines in the ocean, right? I need the seeds of the divine medicine."
Chen Mo said.
He was preparing to build an ocean farm to cultivate water-type divine medicine and Spiritual Plant.
Thereby cultivating a batch of water-type Extraordinary Creatures and human Awakened.
The Ice Lion Kingdom's current army attributes were too singular.
Moreover, the abilities born from water-type Extraordinary Creatures or Awakened were highly likely to be healing types, which were still very useful for the current Ice Lion Kingdom.
"Seeds? What seeds?"
The Hydra Serpent was stunned for a moment, and its golden pupils actually held a bit of a college student's clarity.
Seeing this, Chen Mo no longer held any hope for it; he estimated that when this guy ate divine medicine, it swallowed the branches, leaves, and roots all together.
Chen Mo looked at the Sea Monster Leader Siren beside him and instructed:
"From now on, the divine medicine and Spiritual Plant discovered in the ocean are to be handed over to the Ice Lion Kingdom for unified cultivation."
"Understood, Your Majesty Lion King."
In the previous week, the Ice Lion King had not completely restricted their freedom.
The Sea Monster Leader Siren had visited the farms and ranches of Frost Crane City.
It was truly an eye-opener.
She had never thought that divine medicine could be mass-produced, and after catalysis, they could mature in just a few months; it was simply incredible!
At that time, she was thinking that if the ocean kingdom could also mass-produce divine medicine like this, it would be great; she didn't expect this wish to be realized so quickly.
It was just that the way it was realized deviated greatly from what she had imagined...
"Alright, you may return!"
Before parting, Chen Mo handed several copies of the ice lion laws to the Hydra Serpent.
"Roar?" (What is this?)
The Hydra Serpent asked in confusion.
"The ice lion laws, regulations that the sea clans should also follow from now on."
After speaking, Chen Mo looked at the Sea Siren Leader.
"You still remember the knowledge I taught you before, right?"
During the previous week or so, when Chen Mo was free, he taught the Sea Siren Leader chinese and knowledge of the ice lion laws.
After she learned it, she was to promote it among the sea Siren clans and other ocean clans.
Under Chen Mo's personal instruction, Siren had learned most of the chinese language.
Siren discovered for the first time that her Comprehension Ability was actually so amazing; learning was like being helped by heaven, and she had actually learned such a complex language in just one week!
As a result, the Ice Lion King came out with a line: "You are the worst student I have ever taught," which instantly extinguished the pride in her heart.
She also realized that the Ice Lion King must have used some special method, or treasure, to allow her to learn a complex language in a short period of time.
"Should... possibly still remember it, right?"
The Sea Siren Leader said with some uncertainty, her mind frantically recalling the relevant content of the ice lion laws.
"Forget it, Bing Li, send a Snow Treading Fox to teach these sea clans!"
Seeing this, Chen Mo said.
Time flew by.
A week had passed since the subduing of the Hydra Serpent and its dependents.
[Lying Flat Lion] Day 23.
The Ice Lion Kingdom was now beginning to enter stable development.
Whether it was the Great Snow Mountain Secret Realm or the various cities of the Ice Lion Kingdom, everything was thriving.
The ice lion laws were quickly promoted, becoming the "laws" that all creatures in the new era needed to follow.
The area of ranches and farms was also constantly expanding.
Now, the Spiritual Plant and livestock produced by each city could not only supply local needs, but there was even a large surplus that could be transported to the Great Snow Mountain Secret Realm.
The number of Extraordinary Creatures and Awakened was increasing, and their strength was becoming stronger and stronger.
Moreover, in such a peaceful environment, many Extraordinary Creatures began to reproduce.
The birth rate climbed rapidly.
Especially the Frost Crane clan.
Since using the black technology tao tao mushroom, the Frost Crane clan, which originally had over 300 clansmen, saw the number of Frost Cranes soar to over 1000 in just one month!
Excluding some single cranes, on average, each family had given birth to 10 little Frost Cranes!
