As the blue oleander was thrown into the sea, more and more Hot Pot Dragons immediately gathered.
Such a spectacular scene was like feeding koi in a park; these Hot Pot Dragons would even tear and collide with each other for a few blue oleanders.
The White-robed Siren, hidden in the sea, quickly dodged when she saw this situation.
She was afraid of being bitten by one of the Hot Pot Dragons; after all, the Hot Pot Dragon's saliva was poisonous. Although it didn't have much effect on sea creatures, the current situation didn't allow her to suffer even a tiny bit of damage. She had to maintain peak condition at all times.
Because these Hot Pot Dragons were all fighting for blue oleander on the surface of the sea, she directly dove deeper and swam away. Because of this, Hiccup didn't discover her traces.
After gathering all these Hot Pot Dragons, Hiccup immediately took out a megaphone and said in Dragon Language, "All Dragons listen up! You must patrol the waters around Berk Island every day!"
"If you find traces of a Siren, report it immediately! If you find traces of strangers, report it immediately! If you find unfamiliar ships, also report it immediately!"
After saying this, Hiccup took out Berk Island's exclusive flag. The sea wind in the sky was strong, and the flag flapped loudly.
"This is Berk Island's flag! Any strange ship definitely won't have this flag! You must report it!"
"If a Dragon can provide effective information! They will be directly rewarded with a large barrel of blue oleander!"
"Roar~!"
"Roar~!"
These Hot Pot Dragons responded to Hiccup's words.
Afterward, these Hot Pot Dragons began to swim around Berk Island like a protective ring around Jupiter…
After dealing with these matters, Hiccup felt much more at ease. After all, these Dragons would definitely obey orders because the temptation of blue oleander was simply too great for them.
Moreover, it made them deeply addicted and unable to extricate themselves.
Currently, the number of Dragon Knights on Berk Island has quadrupled, from one thousand at the beginning to four thousand now, and each team has its own characteristics.
Although all the villagers on Berk Island combined number over one hundred thousand people, regardless of gender, over eighty thousand can go to the battlefield!
However, Hiccup's requirements for Dragon Knights are extremely strict. If they can't pass the assessment, they can't. It's impossible for him to send them directly to their deaths on the battlefield.
Although dying on the battlefield is a Viking's greatest honor, Hiccup would never let them die without value.
Now, he's just waiting for those pirate groups to attack Berk Island. Then he can find Dragon Hunter Eret and, through him, find the largest Dragon hunting group, Draeger's whereabouts.
When Hiccup thought of Eret, he couldn't help but also think, "Since small Dragon Hunters like Eret know Draeger's whereabouts and even send him Dragons!"
"Then will other Dragon hunting groups also know Draeger's whereabouts!"
The Dragon Hunters caught so far don't know who Draeger is. Either these Dragon Hunters are lone wolves, catching one Dragon and selling one, then continuing to work when their money runs out.
Or it's that he has gained something, but he looks down on these weak Dragon Hunters.
And Death Song hasn't wanted to leave since coming to Berk Island. It insists on staying by Hiccup's side.
Hiccup repeatedly warned it not to burrow underground, otherwise, it would definitely burrow into magma.
Death Song wanted to rub against Hiccup's clothes intimately, but its spikes touched Hiccup's Dragon scale armor, immediately making a creaking sound.
There was nothing Hiccup could do; he couldn't possibly make Death Song sad…
Moreover, Death Song is not only huge but also extremely powerful in combat. It can fly, go into the sea, and even burrow into the ground. It's simply an all-rounder Dragon, but unfortunately, it cannot be ridden.
As time passed, Merchant John also spread the news he knew even further, in order to get those noble lords to join this battle.
John could only lead his caravan to Thunder Island.
Because most of the noble lords gathered here are nobles with island territories, they definitely have armies, and they will definitely be tempted by this news.
Originally, John was just a small merchant. When he met these noble lords, he would definitely be obsequious, even living worse than a servant.
But now it's different; he has Berk Island as his backing and a powerful team of Dragon Knights!
Mo Meng, hearing the news of Merchant John's arrival at Thunder Island, quickly came out to greet him and said with a forced smile, "Thank heavens, the great Merchant John has finally arrived at Thunder Island!"
John performed a noble courtesy very naturally, also smiling as he said, "It seems you are the new chieftain of Thunder Island! Then I'm sure you'll be interested in the news I have here!"
Mo Meng laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha! Of course, I'm interested! Otherwise, I wouldn't have offered a fifty thousand gold coin bounty to catch a Night Fury!"
Merchant John only responded with a forced smile, not saying much, but he couldn't help but think, "If you knew that all the Dragon Hunters who went to Berk Island were captured alive, I wonder what your mood would be!"
After all, while the concepts of 'war victory' and 'all captured alive' are similar, there's a big difference.
Killing all enemies is also a war victory, but capturing all these people alive is an absolute crushing of power…
He walked into the stone house on Thunder Island, then sat down on a chair by himself. From the adjacent room, Dragon roars and the sound of Dragon claws scratching the wall could faintly be heard.
Mo Meng kept observing John, thinking that such a merchant would definitely be afraid of Dragons. After all, the sound of the Dragon roaring was so clear, and even through a wall, he could hear the Dragon's breathing, which was enough to show that the wall wasn't thick.
The Dragon could rush over at any time.
However, John showed no panic at all. Instead, he pretended to be noble and elegant, taking out a piece of cloth to wipe his hands.
Then he wiped the rim of the cup on the table, took a small sip of hot water, then gently put the cup down, and finally used the cloth to wipe the corner of his mouth.
Of course, all of this was what Hiccup required him to do, to make him look more like a noble than a merchant on the outside.
To make people feel that his business was just a hobby, not a profession.
And this series of actions immediately made Mo Meng look at John with new eyes. After all, the previous John was just a small merchant who bartered goods and didn't even deal with gold coins.
It was even less likely that he knew Mo Meng's Dragon hunting group!
Then, after John put the cloth into the inner pocket of his clothes, he said, "I believe you already know the news I'm going to tell you! And I can give you this news for free and personally take you there!"
"But you must agree to one condition of mine!"
