Chapter 230 Monsters Become King
Chapter 230 Monsters Become King
Small beasts and little demons came in groups, carrying melons, vegetables and fruits to offer their contributions.
The giant beasts bowed their heads in submission, while the otherworldly monsters chuckled arrogantly.
A throne made of piled rocks, built by the mammoths for their new leader, is sprinkled with flowers of various colors, while monkeys of all kinds cheer below.
King Black sat there, roaring with laughter, thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being elevated above all living beings. He could now command the monsters, just as his master had once done.
The branches of the Swallowing Vine were laid on the ground for the monsters to step on, and the remains of various plant-based carnivorous monsters were placed under the throne, showcasing King Black's formidable strength.
Dealing with these green monsters was no problem at all; they were too slow and monotonous, especially for King Black, who had received special training from Reonic.
With a little guidance, the mammoth apes can launch a counterattack on the plant monsters' territory. By using tools and their brains, they can easily outmaneuver the previously arrogant vine-swallowing creatures.
Under the new leader's command, the mammoths truly achieved unimpeded movement in this jungle.
Everything in the territory, from food to herbs, belonged to the mammoth apes and their powerful leader. Disease would no longer torment the mammoth apes, and predators would no longer pose a threat.
For the simple-minded mammoths, King Black was their benefactor. He was extremely powerful, capable of taking on an entire vine colony single-handedly. He could breathe fire, was incredibly strong, handsome, and intelligent.
(Of course, being handsome is from the perspective of a mammoth.)
Strength was the foundation of Black King's ability to gain the trust of the mammoth apes, while wisdom was the weapon that enabled Black King to reign supreme in the mammoth ape community.
King Black taught the mammoths to make stone tools and build structures, enabling them to upgrade their colonies into sanctuaries that could defend against external enemies.
Not only that, King Black also taught the mammoths how to make fire. Fire allowed the monsters, who had long lived in the dark forest, to see light, feel heat, and give them new power.
With torches, mammoth apes would become dominant in the food chain, no longer needing to fear the threat of herbivorous predators. They could freely wield their flames, as long as they didn't burn themselves.
"Luckily, this place is humid enough, otherwise the whole forest would have been destroyed by these monkeys."
"There's no need to worry so much, sir. Almost every plant in the entire mountain range is a monster. They are natural reservoirs of water, and ordinary fire can't really harm them."
Huilia and Luo changed their route and proceeded through the canopy, avoiding the mammoth apes that were ravaging the ground, while also searching for King Black's whereabouts.
The mammoths running around on the ground with torches were all beaming with pride, jumping up and down every few steps, like little kids who had just gotten a new toy.
He jumped too high and fell, dropping his torch which was picked up by another mammoth ape, and the game officially turned into a chase.
"No wonder I used to enjoy watching these things, hehe, life is really interesting."
After muttering to himself, Huilia turned his gaze elsewhere. In this forest, not only were there a large number of mammoths, but also many other monsters from other places.
Most of those monsters carried food or brightly colored stones, which were probably the offerings mentioned by the mammoth apes.
"If these monsters are all going to pay tribute, then their destination is the leader of the mammoth apes. Let's follow them and see if we can find the otherworldly monsters."
After the main plot was clarified, Huilia drew his sword and slashed, cutting through space to achieve a positional shift. Luo Yi used the blessing power of the forest to generate vines on his wrists and let them roam. Neither of them showed any fear of the horde of monsters; on the contrary, they were somewhat excited.
All the transported food was piled up like mountains, both for storage and for showing off. King Black could enjoy food from various places at will, and the mammoths no longer had to worry about food.
The monsters that come to pay tribute are not only to submit to the otherworldly monsters, but also to seek King Black's power to deal with the plant monsters and plunder their territory.
As long as these monsters give him good things, King Black is happy to send a few torch-bearing mammoth monkeys to help them. With the help of tools, dealing with a group of plants is no longer a big problem.
King Black was determined to become the leader himself. He imitated Grandi's behavior to establish his authority, helping the local monsters drive away the heavens and earth, gathering them to expand their territory, just like when he subdued the ant colony.
Not only that, King Black wanted to further increase his power, so he selected obedient and powerful monsters as his henchmen to deal with those who didn't follow the rules.
"I didn't realize that King Black was involved in business operations. I originally thought it was just a weapon of war like King Red."
"Back on the island, King Black and King Red didn't get along well. They often argued and even fought. However, it was always King Black who pushed King Red to the edge first, and then lost to King Red's EX form. Afterwards, the two of them were reprimanded by Commander Grandy."
"Is that so? It seems these otherworldly monsters aren't as ferocious as the rumors suggest; they're actually quite intelligent."
There are simply too many monsters right now, with dozens of mammoth apes alone. It would be unwise to rush in and capture King Black rashly. King Black is now the leader of this group of monsters, and if he gets provoked, it could cause an uprising of the entire monster horde.
King Hilbargon and King Goldras were both on either side of King Black's throne, eating and drinking with him and helping him manage the affairs of his people.
Originally, the silver and gold dragons wandered aimlessly, living a life of irregular meals. After Grandi disappeared, most of the otherworldly monsters lived like this.
Then King Black sent a mammoth ape to find them, saying he could provide the golden dragon and the silver dragon with food and shelter, on the condition that they acknowledge King Black as their leader.
Upon hearing this condition, King Hilbargon and King Goldras agreed without hesitation. As long as they had food and drink, why worry about anything else? Working under someone else didn't matter.
Enjoying fruit, basking in the sun, being waited on hand and foot by mammoths without worrying about being disturbed by humans—why not take such a good life?
Baksim was also found by King Black, but it didn't want to eat and drink. It just wanted to leave the planet as soon as possible. So after it joined up with other otherworldly monsters, it stayed in the dimensional rift looking for a way out.
"Almost all the otherworldly monsters have arrived. I didn't expect King Black to be such a help to me."
"With King Hilbagon, King Goldras, and King Black, only Baksim is missing. King Gesra is on an island, the two Gomoras have been taken in by Wolfsbane, and the remaining King Panton has been eliminated by the Mage Guild."
Luo Yi reported on the progress regarding the otherworldly monster. From the current perspective, things have been simplified a lot. As long as King Black complies, it will be easy for Huilia to take the otherworldly monster away.
"The only remaining challenge is getting King Black to obey. He's currently at the height of his power among the monsters, and he also has King Silvergon and King Goldras helping him. It doesn't seem like we can just force him to obey."
The memory of being brutally beaten by the Gold and Silver Dragons was too humiliating. Huilia would never repeat the same recklessness and carelessness. This time, he would seize victory from the monsters of the other world.
Life on Earth was orderly and peaceful, but the sudden changes from beyond the heavens disrupted everything. The alien spaceships had already locked onto this star system, and a full-scale invasion was only a matter of time.
The turmoil in the universe gradually intensified, and the battle between dimensions had begun. When a rift appeared in space, Bakshim fell from it, his body covered with distorted energy residue.
One by one, dimensional monsters, Huanluo, emerged from it, their eyes filled with gluttony and greed as they looked at the beautiful and delicious world before them.
