A formidable troop of twenty thousand Fifth-turn skeletons descended upon the doorstep of the Giant Lizard Tribe, fiercely intimidating them into submission. Even the tribe’s elder Sixth-turn priest, trembled in fear.
Immediately, he stepped forward, knelt at the entrance of the Giant Lizard Tribe’s home, and humbly begged for a dialogue with Dean McKenzie.
“Honourable and Great Wraith Mage, sir, I acknowledge that our chief disrespected and offended you due to his individual actions. Please be merciful and spare our Giant Lizard Tribe.
We are willing to pay any price just to appease your anger!”
The speed and servile nature of the priest’s surrender was beyond Dean McKenzie’s anticipation.
Dean McKenzie had initially expected a major confrontation. He was surprised when the Giant Lizard Tribe adopted such a submissive stance. Wasn’t this far from their usual barbaric and wild behavior?
Fortunately, the elder priest was not aware of Dean McKenzie’s thoughts, or else he would have sprung at him in outrage. Well, not that he’d dare!
The people of the Giant Lizard Tribe might be barbarians and possessed a certain wildness, but they were not savages or fools.
Even wild beasts gauge the cost and benefits. A lion would retreat in the face of a pack of hyenas. How could they resist the sight before them now?
Twenty thousand Fifth-turn skeletons! Surely they couldn’t resist such an overwhelming horde?
Facing an undefeatable enemy, kneeling and begging for mercy might not be the cleverest choice, but it is certainly the least risky one.
Possibly, the elder priest’s surrender was indeed accurate.
Dean McKenzie did not come with the intent to destroy the Giant Lizard Tribe. Therefore, if the tribe cooperated, Dean wouldn’t resort to annihilating them.
After all, Dean McKenzie was dealing with living, breathing people and not just mindless creatures.
Though Dean McKenzie could simply turn a blind eye and reduce the entire tribe to mere cold data,
That would gradually rob him of his humanity.
Therefore, Dean McKenzie issued an order, directing the professionals of the Giant Lizard Tribe to leave their homes and gather in a designated area.
The commoners were told to stay within their homes and avoid wandering around!
The Giant Lizard Tribe complied promptly and obediently without any hesitation.
Soon, more than two thousand professionals from the Giant Lizard Tribe emerged and assembled in one spot.
Then Dean McKenzie’s army of skeletons entered the stage.
And so, the clearing up of the Giant Lizard Tribe began.
The skeletons ignored the tribespeople and started dismantling all the buildings obviously associated with the professionals.
The main focus was on two buildings within the Giant Lizard Tribe – the Promotion Temple and the Promotion Altar.
The Promotion Temple was self-explanatory. Dean McKenzie had one at his home too.
The one in the Giant Lizard Tribe also had four floors.
Though Dean McKenzie already owned one, he didn’t mind having another.
Even if it was of no use, bringing it home would still make him happy.
As for the Promotion Altar, it’s a structure specifically designed for profession advancements.
When Dean McKenzie saw the Promotion Altar, he was taken aback.
The Promotion Altar of the Giant Lizard Tribe was of a high level, even higher than the Promotion Temple. It was an Intermediate 2-star Promotion Temple, too big to fit in Dean’s Land of Bone.
This altar allowed for the free promotion of 500 people per day. In theory, with this altar, the Giant Lizard Tribe could have more than just 2,000 promoted professionals.
The entire tribe could easily become professionals.
Yet, that was not the case.
Dean McKenzie was curious about this.
“Is it a resource issue?”
At first, Dean McKenzie thought that this could be the cause. But after learning about the living conditions of the commoners in the Giant Lizard Tribe, he realized it was not that simple.
Or rather, it was not just that.
The reason the Giant Lizard Tribe had less than a tenth of its population as professionals in spite of possessing the Promotion Altar is because the tribe’s aristocracy had effectively monopolized the altar, allowing only their kin to use it.
The rest of the tribespeople had no access to the altar,
Worse, from the moment of their birth, their destinies were fixed.
Whatever their parents did for a living, the children had to do the same.
The sole purpose of the commoners was to serve these professionals.
When Dean McKenzie came to understand this and saw the Giant Lizard Tribe’s commoners leading lives filled with despair, he immediately amended his initial plan.
The first thing Dean McKenzie did was open the Gate of Bone and designate an area within the Land of Bone as a temporary shelter for the common people of the Giant Lizard Tribe.
Next, he drove the commoners of the Giant Lizard Tribe into the Land of Bone.
Following that, the skeletons currently within the Giant Lizard Tribe switched modes and started demolishing all the buildings, regardless of whether they were professional or common structures.
Meanwhile, Dean McKenzie suddenly took action against the group of professionals from the Giant Lizard Tribe that was outside the tribe.
Dean’s skeleton, known as ‘Eighth’, was the first to strike, directly eliminating the elder priest.
With the only Sixth-turn existence eliminated, the remaining professionals couldn’t create much of a stir.
In less than a few minutes, Dean McKenzie had sent all of the over two thousand professionals from the Giant Lizard Tribe away.
Dean McKenzie’s sudden move was, on one hand, due to the fact that he had seen the living conditions of the common people inside the Giant Lizard Tribe which made him quite disgusted with the professionals who were exploiting these people, keeping more than ten thousand of them in hopeless conditions.
On the other hand….
