"I.. I was taken by the Guardian of the First region 20 years ago and tasked to become the final boss inside a certain maze.. I was trapped inside there since then.." Bulu answered to his father-in-law.

Hearing this, Chief Zolak found that such an excuse was hard to believe and roared out angrily, "Impossible! Do not talk lightly about the Guardians! How would they kidnapped you just like that?!"

"It's true! I'm not lying father-in-law! My friend over there, Duan Li, can testify for what I have just said. In fact, he was also the one whom has managed to bring me back home today!" Bulu replied with a pitiful voice, feeling that he has been wronged.

Turning his head towards Duan Li, Chief Zolak questioned, "Is what my son-in-law just said true?"

Duan Li nodded, "En! When I entered the final room back then, your son-in-law here happened to be the boss, so I had to beat him up. But who knew that just when our fight was about to end, we actually ended up joining together to beat the real final boss instead, a greater species called the Supreme Salamander!"

"Thus, when we won, we reconciled with each other and became friends. Since he had done me the favor of helping me to beat that Salamander, I vowed that time to one day get him back home, and so, here we are!" Duan Li explained.

The Old Komodo listened to Duan Li from the beginning to the end, and while there was no trace of lying in the latter's speech, he could not help but to narrow his eyes in suspicion, full of doubt on what Duan Li had just said.

After all, he had only just met the other party, thus how can he trust him that blindly?

Seemingly to notice this himself, Duan Li shook his head as he chuckled, "I'm not lying either, and even if I did, what would I even gain here? I am only to fulfill a promise here, nothing more, nothing less."

The old Komodo found his reasoning to be logical and thus nodded.

"I see, if its really the case.. then I could only imagine what you had to go through being held captive for 20 whole years.. forgive me for venting my anger on you.." Chief Zolak said towards his son-in-law.

Hais!

"It was actually my fault for not being able to protect them.. I'm a failure as a father and grandfather!" he roared out at the top of his lungs.

This roars echoed throughout the cave, and from the reverberations, Duan Li and the rest could feel the intense emotion behind those words; it was filled with extreme griefs and pain, regrets and anger!

However, there was also a trace of helplessness in it.

"Father-in-law, since I am already here, let us retaliate! We must not let them think that we are so easy to bully!" Bulu said as he gnashed his teeth together and his blood boiling, thirsting for revenge!

Unexpectedly, the old komodo shook its head before slowly moving back to its previous position and laid down as he let out another sigh.

"Its not like we did not retaliate after that incident.. in fact, we retaliated and attacked them 3 times before, but we were defeated every single time.. and our losses continued to increase.." he explained with a heavy voice, full of regrets.

"What? How can that be? While they indeed have 30 strongs when compared to the 12 strongs we have, a single one of us could take out 3 to 4 of them at once! How did we lost so many times?" Bulu said as he was shocked by this.

Their physical body was many times more tougher than the Fiery Iguanasaurus. Thus, eventhough they didn't have the numbers, they could still fight on equal grounds!

Then how did they lost so badly?

"Its because.. of two reasons.. one was their chief.. Nuhulak.. while his strength is beneath mine, his speed was faster, thus, we are more or less equally matched. But, with my tail and one of my legs severed, there is no way anyone could match him anymore." his father-in-law replied.

He then continued, "The second reason.. is because they have a new champion, Valak! That individual is a fierce warrior.. I dare say that he would be the one to succeed the Iguanas Tribe in the future and even surpass Nuhulak!"

Nuhulak and Valak..

"Then.. are we going to just wait for our doom? Don't tell me that we don't have any sorts of plans at all! One of the senior even told me that the patch of grass outside is the last bit of our territory, if this goes on.. I'm afraid that.. we would all go extinct!"

I will never accept that!

BOOMM!!

Bulu smashed the floor below him, sending cracks like cobwebs spreading around him as the center.

"Bulu.. I understand your indignance.. I really do.. but what can be done? We only have 3 Strongs left to protect this last ground.. even with the addition of you here now, its still not enough to go to war with them for the last time!" old Komodo sighed.

If we were to really fight them for the last time until the end, then there will not even be a legacy left of us.

They will be attacking with their full force, not even letting the children live!

Perhaps, this is the end for our tribe.. our species.. one that is called as the natural selection..

Hais!

Just when the atmosphere in the room was getting even more gloomy, Duan Li made a dry cough which attracted both of their attention.

Ahem!!

"Umm.. regarding that.. I think I may be able to help.."

The old Komodo was evidently surprised when he heard this, 'A human was willing to help us?' he thought.

This was a strange situation for him.

At first, he was quite elated, but when he pondered upon the matter more deeply, he shook his head once more.

"You? Eventhough your realm is quite high.. sigh.. forget it, you will just drag yourself to your early death.. after all, there was only around 200 of us left while their numbers are in the few thousands!"

When he detected Duan Li before, he had already realized that Duan Li's realm was far more higher than him, that was why his defensive instinct suddenly kicked in and he roared out.

But even if he was stronger, so what?

There was no way the other party could handle the continuous onslought of a few thousands of those cunning beast!

Not to mention, his stamina is now that a mortal's due to the limitations of this region!

Duan Li chuckled, "Aren't they just a bunch of 1-Star monsters at most? While there may be 2-Star monsters among them, I've once single-handedly slaughtered more than 10,000 of 1-Star monsters, let alone a few thousands, that's practically nothing!"

Puu!!

The old Komodo choked on himself.

Who are you trying to bullsh*t!!

It is not as if you are a Nascent Soul realm expert to be saying such things! If I were to believe in you, then I would have really been living in vain all these while!

Do you actually take me for a fool?

Seeing that the old Komodo's bizarre expression was a hint that the latter did not believe in him, he was caught in an awkward position.

"If you don't believe me, its fine! But I could guess why your confidence has dropped to such a degree.. and that is because you are now a handicapped!" Duan Li said.

"Y-You!!" the old Komodo's face warped in anger and was about to lash out at him before Duan Li pressed on.

"With no one to lead them, your species will be easily defeated. Furthermore, even if you can return to your peak state, unless there is also a champion on your side to fight against this Valak, a retaliation would only be courting death. Am I right?"

Controlling his emotions, the old Komodo nodded. "That's right."

This was especially the case for him being disabled. In such a state, he was unfit to be their leader in battle as he cannot move easily. With no one to rally upon and no one to lead, morale would continue to drop before the fight becomes one-sided!

Therefore, eventhough what Duan Li had just said infuriated him a little, he had to acknowledge that the other party was right!

"Then, what if I said that I can make you walk normally again? Give you a champion, and.. that I can raise your whole tribe's fighting prowess to the pinnacle?" Duan Li chuckled, his words sounded like a bewitching devil.
