The reason for allowing the Kobolds to reproduce was simple.
Labor force.
Kobolds had a strong reproductive ability. They could lay 20 to 30 eggs a year, and their growth rate was extremely fast. With sufficient food, newborn Kobolds could grow from infants to qualified laborers in three months.
As the saying goes, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to four, and four gives birth to eight.
This was also the reason why he did not allow them to reproduce. If the Kobolds always hated him, there was naturally no need to let them strengthen their race and increase the difficulty of management.
But now, the Kobolds were extremely fanatical about him and respected him like a god. There was no need to worry about them at all. This way, he could expand the scale of his race and increase the labor force in the territory.
They went around the underground cave and headed for the entrance to the mountain.
The road that had been blocked by the falling rocks had been cleared, revealing a rugged mountain road that meandered up the mountain.
As the mountain path went higher, the field of vision gradually widened.
The sea in the distance, the mountains under their feet, the jungles on the island, and the six sub-islands in the northwest and northeast
From here, one could see any part of the New Moon Islands at a glance.
“Perhaps I can set up a few watchtowers here in the future…”
This mountain peak looked very high from afar, and it was also very high up close.
They walked along the mountain path that was covered with moss and vegetation. Some places were less than half a meter wide, but outside were cliffs that were hundreds of meters high and were hit by waves at the bottom.
Looking up, there was still quite a distance to the top of the mountain. It was estimated that this mountain was at least several hundred meters tall.
After passing through another narrow walkway, a platform that was sunken inwards appeared in front of him. A small waterfall crashed into the platform from above and flowed down the stone crevice, falling down a hundred meters into the cliff.
On the rock wall in the depths, there was a stone building. Judging from the architectural style, it should have been left behind by the old civilization of the New Moon Islands.
The buildings of the old civilization that he had encountered before more or less had some remnants.
Ji Chen’s interest was piqued.
The Crown of Omniscience showed that there were some monsters hidden in the building. He casually asked the pure water sea pixie to shoot a few water arrows into it.
“Ding ~ Entering battle…Morale at 88 points.”
88 points of morale?
Ji Chen was surprised.
He had never fought such a prosperous battle in his entire life.
Sure enough, white seagulls flew out from the gap in the building.
He only took a glance and lost interest.
A Tier 14-st ar trash.
The shallow sea murlocs quickly used their tridents to nail the sharp-peaked seagulls to death.
The bodies were plump and full, suggesting they would yield several pounds of meat.
Having already traveled for half a day and with the troops having expended considerable energy, he ordered a halt to rest and started a fire to cook the seagulls, taking a brief respite.
He lit a torch and entered the pitch-black interior of the structure, which had been excavated directly from the mountain. Due to the lack of light, it was difficult to determine its size and height.
However, it seemed that the seagulls had used this place as their nest. The ground was covered in thatch and dry branches, and among the soft thatch were some white eggs.
He did not pay much attention to it after taking a few glances and continued to search around. He found many animal corpses in the corner, piled up in the corner to form a mountain of bones.
Ji Chen looked at the pile of bones and frowned slightly.
It seemed that apart from small animals, there were also some large animals, even Kobolds and humans.
Recalling the earlier small sharp-beaked seagulls with their relatively small size, it seemed unlikely that they could hunt large animals like Kobolds and humans.
“Chirp!”
Just as he was feeling puzzled, a series of piercing and shrill cries suddenly came from outside.
The sound was ear-piercing and caused discomfort.
With a slight change in his expression, Ji Chen quickly walked out, holding the torch.
As he returned to the platform, he saw that the troops were already on high alert. The murlocs raised their tridents, while the naga warriors’ eyes turned blood-red.
A quick glance revealed the source of the commotion.
Dozens of giant sharp-beaked seagulls flew in the sky outside the platform. Their wingspan reached three to four meters, their claws were sharp, and their beaks resembled spikes. The powerful flapping of their wings pressed down the weeds in the gaps.
“My Lord…” Alice and Anina approached.
“What’s happening? Where did these giant seagulls come from?”
“These are probably their offspring…”
At this moment, Ji Chen finally noticed the group of giant seagulls observing the roasted seagull carcasses hanging over the bonfire, which had already started to emit a tempting aroma.
Their eyes were filled with sorrow and mournful cries echoed in the air.
He suddenly realized.
Oh, so these small seagulls were the offspring of these giant seagulls. No wonder they were capable of hunting large animals.
Well.
He felt a little embarrassed for roasting their children right in front of them.
Ji Chen narrowed his eyes and inspected their attribute panel.

The giant sharp beak seagulls looked at them with blood-red eyes and suddenly let out a piercing screech. Flapping their wings vigorously, they soared into the sky like fighter jets with full throttle..
