This Giant Dragon is So Powerful!-Chapter 45 - 44: Why Not Just Eat and Eat

The rapid development of the two major tribes is largely due to Udi occasionally using dragon blood to create more Dragon Descendants.

Anyway, given his size, squeezing out a lump of ordinary blood the size of a human fist once a month is nothing to him.

But for these goblin low-level demons, it’s a transformative opportunity.

"Sounds like the development is going well." Udi praised Shiji.

Shiji is now effectively Udi’s chief steward, handling the affairs of various races. For instance, Udi would directly hand over the dragon blood to him for distribution, and this kind of management and development clearly takes a lot of energy, which might also be a reason why his strength was surpassed by Mondo.

Kadan from the Green Forest Tribe doesn’t mind this at all, as being a mage, he hardly has enough time to study magic. Having someone to help manage and develop the tribe is perfectly fine.

As for whether power will be transferred?

This world is one where strength is worshipped and the strong reign supreme. As long as Kadan, the goblin high priest, maintains strong power, it won’t be a problem.

After understanding the development situation of his subordinate followers, Udi had a rough idea in his mind.

Setting aside the low-level strength followers, under Udi’s command reaching middle level now are Kadan, Mondo, Shiji, Zaku, and Zameng, a total of five.

These five, leading over a thousand warriors, can already attack some weaker human towns.

"If based on the average strength of followers, the three major tribes under the Black Dragon Maiden aren’t likely to match mine, right?" Udi suddenly thought.

But he soon shook his head because he remembered the extraordinarily talented and powerful giant demon leader ’Gray’ under the Black Dragon Maiden, towering at five meters tall.

The strength of this big guy is something even Udi at this moment isn’t confident enough to defeat, though escaping would be possible since he is a giant dragon with wings and can fly.

"Gray, this one giant demon, could probably handle the subordinate forces under me, not to mention other dragon vein followers of my mother who haven’t shown themselves."

Although the Black Dragon Maiden disdains the development of subordinate forces, there are still a few Dragon Vein Followers who have followed her for decades. Over such a long span of time, it’s estimated that each has the strength of an advanced professional.

Whether in biological level or professional level, the difficulty increases as one progresses upward, and the difference in strength between each level becomes greater.

Therefore, the difficulty of fighting beyond one’s level grows increasingly hard the further along one progresses. This is also true for giant dragons.

After all, within ordinary races, those who can become strong are virtually one in a million or one in a hundred thousand. They are no longer considered common riffraff, and virtually each one is an elite who has emerged from shedding a lot of blood and undergoing numerous battles. It’s almost impossible for one to reach an advanced professional or master-level professional and still be a waste.

Udi signaled Shiji and the others that they could leave.

Then he fluttered his dragon wings and observed Black Blood Valley from low altitude.

Along the way, Udi saw at least a dozen huge animal pens, with livestock inside that were quite prolific in their reproductive abilities.

There was the Jungle Giant Rabbit, which can give birth to a litter once a month, with ten to twenty in a litter.

There were Wild Goats, which matured in three to four months, reproduced several times a year, and gave birth to three to five at a time.

Additionally, there was a large gray Mountain Chicken, bigger than a human, growing at an incredible speed.

Ordinary wild demon tribes rarely raise livestock; it’s not because the demons are stupid, but because the outdoor life is fraught with dangers, and today’s fullness could turn into tomorrow’s hunger or even death. Under such circumstances, even if some smart demons in the tribe wanted to breed livestock, within a day, those livestock would be eaten clean by other tribesmen.

Unless the tribe’s leader possesses enough strength and prestige to deter the entire tribe, and also foresight, making the possibility of setting up a farm feasible.

For example, the Green Forest Tribe, which hasn’t submitted to Udi Dragon Wings, has several small breeding farms. This is because Kadan’s prestige and strength are sufficient, and he has foresight about the future development of the tribe.

"If there wasn’t any livestock farming, it’s likely that every living creature within a hundred miles would have been eaten up by Shiji and the others," Udi grinned.

Feast Talent has both its pros and cons. The pros are obvious: rapid growth and strength enhancement, but the cons are also very apparent—consuming a lot of food.

Each one is a big eater.

Taking Mondo as an example, he could easily devour half a wild goat at a time and probably eats five or six a day without any trouble.

"Shiji mentioned to me that the reason those wild dwarves attacked them was because the followers beneath us recklessly hunted and captured animals and demons within the territory of others."

Those demons and beasts that couldn’t be tamed or eaten were killed directly, and quality prey was used by Udi as part of his banquet food. The tamed herbivorous demons or beasts were commanded by Shiji to be captured by the warriors and brought back to the tribe, expanding the breeding scale.

Only by constantly expanding the breeding base can there be enough meat for the increasing number of demons to eat.

However, even with this effort, food is still insufficient, so both the Green Forest Tribe and Black Blood Tribe have to assign their people into different tiers and hierarchies.

Those brave in combat and killing are offered dragon blood transformation and ample meat; the stronger and more successful they are in hunting, the more meat they are provided.

Those who are cowardly, timid, and afraid of death aren’t given dragon blood transformation and become the logistical backbone of the tribe. The goblins and kobolds caring for the livestock in the animal pens belong to this category, as do those working in positions such as gathering fruits and cutting grass for feed.

The Black Blood Valley now under Shiji’s management is bustling.

"But this is almost the limit."

Udi wandered in the sky, observing the lives of the monsters in the valley, thinking silently.

The surrounding resources are still too scarce.

Even with breeding, it’s only enough to support a few thousand demons under his condition, which is the current limit of food resources.

Unless new food sources are developed.

For example... grain.

"Have demons farm grain?" Udi thought of this question but felt it’s a bit unreliable.

He gathered his followers, and producing a subordinate legion with dragon blood is not to develop a monster empire but to provide him with enough food, saving a lot of hunting time.

Beyond this core purpose, it’s to have a group of decently strong cannon fodder to fight when enemies are encountered.

Udi really doesn’t have the plan or idea to establish a monster empire...

That’s exhausting, and he’d be restrained. If he provokes a strong enemy, the empire becomes his weakness.

It’s better to enjoy freely, eating wherever and whenever he wants.

Hmm, leading a hungry legion to feast everywhere!

What was that saying?

While others stockpile grain, I...
