The night passed quickly.
Early in the morning, just as the first ray of dawn fell, Wotru began to patrol around his dragon nest.
He was checking the results of the monsters' work from last night.
The most important isolation zone had been set up according to Wotru's instructions.
Centered on the dragon nest, the forest within a five-hundred-meter radius had been separated from the Silvermoon Forest.
Additionally, within this five-hundred-meter range, there was a two-hundred-meter radius isolation circle surrounding the dragon nest, forming a ring structure.
This was Wotru's double insurance, preventing those Sakura Island players from acting recklessly.
Setting up the isolation zone wasn't a very complex task; it only required digging wide enough trenches within the designated area to separate the forest.
The isolation zone did not cover the entire Silvermoon Forest, which was Wotru's consideration.
After all, the workload would be too large.
In just one night, it would be difficult for the monsters to complete it.
Moreover, there was no need to do so.
Because these human players must have communicated with each other, even if they don't know the exact location of the dragon nest, they surely have a rough idea.
So their attack will be very targeted.
If these Sakura Island players are too stupid to find the direction of the dragon nest, Wotru has a backup plan.
He would specifically arrange for some monsters to act, luring those players to gather towards the dragon nest.
Then gradually close the net, capturing them all in one go.
After patrolling, Wotru landed near the Flame Arrow Towers with Anna Hathaway.
"Woof, woof..."
Interrupted barking sounds came.
On the tall rock wall, a group of Kobolds were dressing the Flame Arrow Towers with vines and grass nets woven last night.
"Brother, what is this? Why are they dressing these Flame Arrow Towers?"
Anna lay on Wotru's back, feeling puzzled by the actions of the Kobolds.
"This is called a ghillie suit, hehe..."
"Ghillie suit?"
Anna was confused.
Why did she know every word her brother said, but when put together, she didn't understand what it meant?
Is Anna too dumb?
Anna bit her fair fingers in a daze, her adorable peach blossom eyes filled with confusion. She could only hug Wotru's neck, quietly waiting for him to explain.
"Well, it's normal that you don't understand."
"That's a term from my hometown, but you just need to know that when humans attack the dragon nest, it will be hard for them to spot these Flame Arrow Towers."
Wotru explained to Anna while walking around the Flame Arrow Towers, feeling a hundred percent satisfied.
This was all thanks to the Bird Demon clan who were good at organizing feathers; their woven ghillie suits covered the towers thoroughly. From afar, the five Flame Arrow Towers looked like five big bamboo shoots.
When the players approach the dragon nest, they will definitely be surprised.
But they would never think these five "big bamboo shoots" are five high-risk defense towers, and by the time they use the Insight skill, it would be too late.
Anna was naturally smart.
After Wotru's explanation, she quickly understood the significance of the "ghillie suit," imagining the scene when humans face these Flame Arrow Towers.
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but chuckle, her bright face showing two shallow dimples, looking particularly charming.
"Brother, you're so bad~ Those humans are definitely doomed."
"Humph~ War between races is like this, it's either you die or I live."
"I cannot hope to use my goodwill to exchange for human goodwill, that's a foolish act."
"Different races have different hearts, unless I am their ruler."
Wotru stood on the highest rock wall, his eyes blazing, with dangerous cold light hidden in his pale golden dragon eyes.
From here, he could see the experimental field not far away.
A large group of human soldiers and players were working hard.
If possible, he would also like to be friends with humans, of course, excluding those invading players.
But his identity was a Black Dragon.
This identity destined him to be on the opposite side of the world's humans.
Unless a miracle happens, or by suppressing everything with strength, he himself sets the rules.
Otherwise, even if he is battered and bruised, losing everything.
He would still be cruelly killed by indigenous humans.
His dragon heart taken, his dragon skin peeled, as that great knight said, placed in human auction houses for people to bid and choose.
Thinking of this, Wotru couldn't help but recall his action of killing the female mage outside the dragon nest seven days ago.
Well done!
Peaceful coexistence...
Absolutely ridiculous, extremely foolish.
Only those whose brains have been kicked by a donkey would think that a young, weak Black Dragon could peacefully coexist with humans.
Anna didn't know what Wotru was thinking.
But she could inexplicably feel Wotru's emotions, so she gently stood up, standing on Wotru's back, softly hugging his neck, her soft face gently rubbing against the steel-like scales.
"Brother, Anna will always be your Anna."
"Anna doesn't belong to anyone, any force, any race, Anna only belongs to you."
Anna said so, her eyes filled with sincere and intense feelings.
That was love and attachment.
Even though the evolved Black Dragon scales were cold, she could still feel the warmth unique to her from this coldness.
The Black Dragon was kind, she was kind.
If the Black Dragon was evil.
Then she would accompany the Black Dragon in being evil.
The scenery in the dawn lost the darkness of the night.
The sun rose, and the surrounding scenery gradually became bright and clear.
The Half-Elf Fox-Eared girl and the Black Dragon nestled together, sitting on the rock wall, bathing in the warm dawn light.
Behind them, a group of Kobolds was busy up and down the Flame Arrow Towers.
They said many words, but they were all crushed in the cool morning breeze, unknown to anyone.
Only gradually becoming connected in heart, inseparable.
...
Outside the Silvermoon Forest, Morrigan Plain.
Sakura No. 1 Novice Village.
The green light screen visible only to players gradually turned into flower dots and disappeared, marking the end of the novice protection period, and the safe zone completed its mission, dispersing without hesitation.
"The weather today is very good!"
Yamaguchi Muraji stood at the entrance of Sakura No. 1 Novice Village, couldn't help but praise the rising sun.
Isn't that red sun the gaze of the Sun Goddess?
It's a sign of victory!
He turned around, facing a group of fully armed players, his ambition almost turning into burning flames.
This is Sakura No. 1 Novice Village, the place where he first entered the game, and also where he will soar, the Yamaguchi family will become famous in this different world.
And today, he will take the first step, the greatest step.
Yamaguchi Muraji raised his wine glass high, the crystal-clear wine splashing in the air, the spicy aroma drifting with the wind, invigorating all players.
"Gentlemen! Attack the dragon nest with me! Charge!"
