The goblins' potential is closely tied to their paternal bloodline.

  Meanwhile, their limitations are tightly ected to the maternal body.

  Goblins born from groundhog mothers have the lowest potential.

  If the mother is a dragon, the goblin born would not only have extraordinary attributes from birth.

  O reaches adulthood, it might even evolve into a Goblin King.

  Additionally, it would carry dragon liraits, gaining some powerful skills.

  Of course, dragon-blooded goblins probably do in this world.

  After all, goblins are at the very bottom of the food here.

  Although they hunt some powerful magical beasts through teamwork,

  there are also many magical beasts in the forest that prey on goblins.

  Dragons, oher hand, are at the top of the pyramid.

  The two have no interse, and even if they did, goblins would be the ants.

  Fag Li Meng's fort, Bai Ling turned her head expressionlessly.

  With a grin, Li Meng got up and walked out, uned.

  Li Meng didn't care what Bai Ling thought.

  In the ing year, Bai Ling had to bear offspring for him.

  "Boss, boss!"

  Outside, the door suddenly opened, waking Gobu Qiang from his wait.

  Gobu Qiang quickly got up and greeted with a fawning smile.

  Li Meng, standing at the door, stretched zily.

  Then he looked up at the clear, cloudless sky.

  "What is it now?"

  Gobu Qiang looked greedily ihe room.

  "Boss, give me a female!"

  Li Meng's face turned slightly cold, and he looked at Gobu Qiang expressionlessly.

  "Gobu Qiang, you're the first goblin to actively ask me for mating rights."

  Fag the boss's soul-pierg gaze, Gobu Qiang turned pale.

  He was shtehat he fell to his knees, kowtowiedly.

  "Boss, I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't dare again!"

  Seeing Gobu Qiang kneeling and begging for mercy, Li Meng waved impatiently.

  "Don't let it happen again, scram!"

  Gobu Qiang quickly turned and scrambled away.

  "Hmph, serves him right!"

  This se was witnessed by nearby goblins.

  Some goblins looked on with schadenfreude.

  "That old man keeps hanging around the boss, he should have stepped down long ago!"

  "Gobu De, you should challenge Gobu Qiang."

  "Get lost, I left his hunting party long ago, if there's a challe's to the little boss."

  Hearing the mog voices of his kin, Gobu Qiang gred angrily.

  He ched his fists, a hint of murderous i fshing in his eyes.

  "Just wait, once I evolve into a goblin warrior, I'll deal with you all!"

  Just then, a goblin hurried over from the front.

  Gobu Qiang grabbed it.

  "What happened?"

  "A group of lizardmen is approag the tribe from the northwest."

  A group of lizardmen is approag?

  Gobu Qiang's eyes lit up, auro run towards the boss.

  "Leave this to me!"

  "Boss, boss!"

  Having just run off, Gobu Qiang came scurrying back.

  He slid to a stop, kneeling steadily before Li Meng.

  "Boss, the tribute has arrived!"

  Hearing this, Li Meng's eyes lit up.

  He was about to go see, but thought better of it.

  "Let them in, bring a few leaders to see me!"

  Gobu Qiang nodded vigorously.

  It was great that the boss entrusted him with this task.

  It showed that the boss still trusted him.

  His status in the boss's eyes wasn't something those foolish goblins could shake.

  Gobu Qiang quickly got up, full of pride, and ran off into the distance.

  Meanwhile, in the s northwest of the tribe.

  A group of lizardmen roag the tribe along a shallow waterway.

  Their figures were densely packed.

  There were at least four to five hundred of them.

  The lizardmen wading through the water wore expressions of fear.

  Even those at the front looked grim.

  The appearance of the fortress ahead made everyone's hearts tighten.

  Reag here meant there was n back for them.

  "Gray Scale tribe leader, I hope your decision with the White Scale tribe is correct."

  In the crowd, Gray Scale supported his wife as they waded through the water.

  Regarding the words of the Bck Scale tribe leader beside him, Gray Scale gazed towards the distant White Scale tribe.

  "I've sent people to the Bck Mountain S to seek help from the Bck Mountain tribe. You know how precious the High Priest's bloodline is, the Bck Mountain tribe won't refuse. Once reinforts arrive, it will be our day of revenge!"

  Bck Scale turo look at his slightly anxious wife.

  He sighed, saying nothing more.

  The more f words he spoke, the more fragile his wife would bee.

  He had no choior did his people.

  Either survive or bee food for the goblins.

  Half an hour ter, the lizardman tribute team nded from outside the wooden wall to the northwest.

  Then they ehe tribe through the nate.

  Goblins looked greedily at the lizardmeering through the nate.

  The lizardmen being watched by the gobliher gred angrily or trembled in fear.

  The elders of the Gray Scale and Bck Scale tribes looked tense.

  Entering the tribe empty-handed, if the goblins attacked, they would all die.

  Fortunately, the goblins around them only stared at them with greedy eyes.

  "Gray Scale tribe leader, those ons in the goblins' hands seem to be human bows and arrows!"

  Siering the White Scale tribe, Bck Scale had been the goblins iribe.

  The ons in the goblins' hands caught Bck Scale's attention.

  Gray Scale also noticed that the goblins' ons seemed to be iron.

  "They look a bit like it, but bows and arrows aren't like that!"

  "Where did these gobli iron ons?"

  Only on this point was Gray Scale puzzled.

  "We'll find out!"

  Slightly raising his head, Bck Scale looked at a goblin blog their path.

  "Follow me!"

  The goblin blog the way was Gobu Qiang.

  Gobu Qiaured to the lizardmen in front of him.

  Though the nguages were different, his gestures veyed his meaning to the lizardmen.

  With that, Gobu Qiang turned and walked deeper into the tribe.

  The group of lizardmen followed Gobu Qiang.

  Soon, Gobu Qiahe lizardmen to the rgest thatched hut.

  Li Meng still sat at the entrance, with Benben sn away.

  Bai Ling stood at the entrance, quietly watg the approag lizardmen.

  "It's the High Priest Bai Ling!"

  The sight of Bai Ling at the entrance caused a small otion among the lizardmen.

  All the lizardmen looked at the High Priest Bai Ling with plex expressions.

  They hadn't expected the High Priest Bai Ling to also bee a prisoner of the goblins.

  The lizardmen stopped about twenty meters from the thatched hut.

  Gobu Qiang scurried over to Li Meng.

  "Boss, I've brought the tribute!"

  Li Meng gnced over the lizardmen.

  There were quite a few, at least several hundred lizardmen.

  Li Meng poio the two leading lizardmen.

  They had the highest levels, reag level 47.

  This indicated that these two lizardmen held signifit positions iribe.
