Chapter 377 - 377 377 It's Rabbitfolk After All
377: Chapter 377: It’s Rabbitfolk After All 377: Chapter 377: It’s Rabbitfolk After All It must be said that being skilled in mining is indeed a very important skill.
However, after some thought, Zhao Guang gave it up.
This was because kobolds were difficult to manage, and his domain could not afford to erupt with any issues, especially since it was still new and could not withstand any turmoil.
Of course, the important thing was that no mineral deposits had been discovered in his territory yet.
Development of the domain was severely lacking, and even if deposits had been found during the winter, it was likely impossible to exploit them.
More importantly, Zhao Guang was not lacking means for mining.
As long as he brought over some professional mining tools and boosted them with an Anti-Magic Domain, the speed would surpass that of the kobolds by much.
Since there was an alternative, it was natural for Zhao Guang to lose interest in the kobolds.
“Let’s talk about the lizardfolk,” Zhao Guang simply continued.
Unexpectedly, the lizardfolk were also a part of the beastmen.
After all, it can’t be that any creature with animal-like characteristics is a beastman, as that would make the category far too broad.
Aleya nodded and said, “The lizardfolk excel in aquatic warfare, especially in swamps, but their combat strength on land is rather weak.
They will struggle in drier environments.”
“To the north of your domain lies the gathering place of the Undead Mages, and the lizardfolk can help you fend them off.”
Isn’t this a warrior, isn’t this a powerful race.
Zhao Guang was curious, and Aleya was sighing, having originally thought that Zhao Guang came here with nothing and that they could provide protection in exchange for getting more of what they wanted.
But who would have known, before she came here, her investigations revealed that Zhao Guang’s development was not bad at all.
Despite it being winter, Zhao Guang had already constructed buildings in one corner, and the defensive power was very strong.
Even among his subordinates, he had several with Combat Energy, forming a not-so-weak army.
Such strength, while not enough to expand outward, meant that protecting his own domain was not a problem at all.
Unable to offer protection, Aleya had no choice but to switch to a different way of interacting.
Even in terms of the people offered, she had added the category of lizardfolk.
Zhao Guang found it somewhat odd and said, “Lizardfolk can serve as warriors, shouldn’t they be considered a powerful race?”
Aleya shook her head, “No, just relatively disadvantaged, because they have very high environmental requirements.
Without a large amount of water, some lizardfolk can even die from various complex diseases.”
“So where did you find these lizardfolk?”
Aleya looked somewhat embarrassed, had she been found out?
“They have been living in the Plague Swamp and this vicinity for a long time, but later it was occupied by Undead Mages, and some of the lizardfolk fled to other places, with some ending up in our area.”
“It is said that some lizardfolk are under the command of the Undead Mages, so your expansion to the north won’t be easy.”
Zhao Guang nodded to express his understanding, indeed, these creatures originally came from this area.
It’s just that Zhao Guang was not interested in expansion, at least not now.
The area was full of various plagues, and without a suitable solution, Zhao Guang did not wish to claim a swamp as his domain.
Moreover, he did not believe that he could confront so many Undead Mages.
Perhaps for the Empire, these Undead Mages were nothing to fuss about.
But to him, it was an entirely different matter.
“Let’s talk about the Rabbitfolk,” Zhao Guang said excitedly.
When it came to Rabbitfolk, Zhao Guang thought of Bunny Girls, those ears, those red eyes, and those thighs.
How could one say they were a disadvantaged race?
They clearly seemed quite formidable.
Apart from everyone else, even just having them around for their attractiveness, doing some service industry work, would be good.
It could also enrich the life of his Domain, a fine choice indeed.
Although the Slaves he had bought were organized by family units, the proportion of females was still too low.
Once these Slaves all gained the status of commoners, this issue would probably need to be addressed.
“Rabbitfolk, now they are indeed a vulnerable group.
Their combat strength is weak, and they don’t have any particular specialties.
Other than running fast, it seems they have a bit of a talent for distinguishing plants,” he said.
Clearly, Aleya didn’t think much of these rabbits.
“Wait, what do you mean by a talent for distinguishing plants?” Zhao Guang suddenly thought of something.
“It’s not of much use, it’s just that they’re a bit more capable of discerning the subtle differences in plants.
The herbal medicine prepared by these Rabbitfolk is generally more effective than what others make, but they don’t have Magic Power,” she explained.
Without Magic Power, that meant they couldn’t make Magic Potions; ordinary herbal medicine had little effect.
Others might make less effective ones, but at least those could still be used.
Calculating like this, the status of these Rabbitfolk naturally hit rock bottom.
“That’s great, this is very useful for me.” This ability was specifically made for helping with his plant cultivation, wasn’t it?
Those subtle differences were exactly what he needed to discern for plant cultivation.
Improvements to every type of plant were made by adjusting these subtle differences bit by bit, weren’t they?
Aleya was a bit puzzled, not having expected Zhao Guang to want this skill for distinguishing plants.
But since Zhao Guang wanted it, she’d give it to him, which would conveniently help to rid her of some burdens.
“Alright, I’ll have the Rabbitfolk on that side prepare.
This time we should be able to send about twenty thousand Rabbitfolk.”
“I’ve got it, I’ll have the houses prepared as soon as possible.
Tell me what their housing requirements are.”
“They don’t have any special requirements, basically as long as there’s a place to live.”
Well, this response clearly showed the plight of these Rabbitfolk; truly a tough existence.
But this was even better for him.
By treating them well, he could easily win their loyalty.
“For our future dealings, I will inform the Rabbitfolk to be ready.
You hand over the goods to them, our liaison will conduct the handover with them, and we can discuss the details later in person.”
As long as they didn’t directly interact in the trade, there would be far fewer risks.
Even if it was discovered, he could pin the blame on someone else, portraying himself as a high-level executive who knew nothing about it.
“I understand, so when can they come over?”
“They can relocate immediately.
It’s winter now, and the Rabbitfolk don’t have enough food.
Every winter, quite a few die.
But there are also many Beastmen; we don’t want to waste food on them.”
My goodness, what a waste of talent.
Don’t they know the value of human resources?
“Then send them over as quickly as possible.
I hope as many of them arrive as possible.
I will compensate you for the consumption of food later.”
