The hall of the office was filled with all kinds of demons. They were not supposed to be here. When the Lizard patriarch saw them, he immediately realized that they were in the same situation as him, caught in the winter crisis.
After the death of the Boar King, the fleeing Boar Clan plundered the surrounding demons on a large scale, which directly affected all the subordinate demons of the Boar Clan. It should be known that the resources in the forest were limited. For so many years, the Boar Clan would let the other clans keep some food to survive the winter and hand over the rest.
But now, they did not care about the lives of the other clans. They wanted to develop quickly and raise a new Boar King, so they plundered the food of the other demons and left the Ufa Great Forest.
Therefore, those who stayed here were all demons who were about to starve to death.
"Please sit down, everyone."
Hala said to the Lizard Clan and the Chicken Clan who were standing in a daze. They blinked and sat down under the guidance of the Rabbit Clan maid. They looked at the food on the table and drooled.
But they did not dare to eat any food. They only dared to whisper to the people next to them.
The Lizard patriarch sat next to the Centaur Clan. The Centaur Clan was a relatively silent clan. They stood on all fours and did not need to sit down. Their upper body was humanoid, but their whole body was covered with thick horse skin.
The Centaur Clan was a relatively strong demon clan. Even the Boar Clan did not dare to ask too much of them. Moreover, they had a wide range of food. Like the Ke Rabbit Clan, they could eat grass under the snow to satisfy their hunger. It was reasonable to say that they should not come here and look at the Rabbit Clan.
The Centaur Clan's patriarch noticed the Lizard patriarch's gaze. He turned his head slightly and glared at him.
The Lizard Patriarch let out a dry cough and greeted them. This was a very strange feeling. Normally, this group of demons would not meet each other. They all had their own territories. Even if they accidentally met, they would pretend that they did not see each other and leave on their own.
"Is everyone here?"
At this moment, the lord in the hall spoke. He opened his eyes, revealing a pair of eyes that could swallow all light.
For this group of demons at the bottom of the hierarchy, they had a unique ability to judge danger. Even if the other party did not show any killing intent, they could judge the danger from the other party's eyes.
They instinctively felt fear. This was the suppression between the races.
The lizard clansmen closed their mouths and held their breaths. Their eyes were covered by their eye membranes. This was a symptom that would only appear when they were diving or when they were afraid.
Not only them, even the noisy chicken clan did not dare to make any noise.
"Other than the Mutant Monkey Tribe and the Simo Tribe, everyone else is here."
Hala, who was holding a pen and paper, said.
"The Mutant Monkey Tribe has already perished. The Simo Tribe has moved out of the great forest and sought refuge with the Underworld Demon King."
At this moment, the Centaur Patriarch who had been silent suddenly spoke. All the demons looked over. The Lizard Patriarch who was sitting next to them swallowed his saliva and quietly moved away.
"How did you know?"
The Demon King asked. Of course, he already knew the answer to this question. It was just that this Centaur, who was neither servile nor overbearing, piqued his interest.
The Centaur Patriarch turned his head and looked at the Demon King. "Our Centaur Tribe's range of activity covers almost the entire Ufa Great Forest. On the way here, we saw the corpses of the Mutant Monkey Tribe. Their corpses were buried in the snowstorm. None of them survived."
Hearing this, the other Patriarchs looked at each other and whispered among themselves. It was as if they were afraid that their own race would end up like this.
"That's a pity." The person on the seat smiled. He did not look like he felt pity. He continued, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Richard. I'm the one who defeated the Boar King …"
After the Demon King and Richard's self-introduction, they were allowed to enjoy the delicious food first. However, all the Patriarchs kept their mouths shut. This Bull Demon was indeed terrifying. He was the one who killed the Boar King. However, it was also because of him that they ended up in this state. Now, he had prepared so much delicious food for them. They did not know what he was thinking.
"What's wrong? Is the food not to your taste? Or … are you afraid that there's poison in the food? "
The Demon King said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the Patriarchs quickly shook their heads and said no. They quickly picked up the food on the table and put it into their mouths.
When the people at the table behind saw this, they immediately dug in. The scene became chaotic. They did not expect the food to be so delicious. In addition, they had been hungry for so long. If they did not eat now, they would be letting themselves down.
Under the wind, only the empty plates were left on the table. Even the soup was licked clean. However, the Ke Tu Tribe's extravagance was beyond their imagination. After a while, they came back with plates of food. This was the first time the Patriarchs felt that they could not finish their food.
After a full meal, the Patriarchs hugged their round bellies and burped. They leaned back in their chairs comfortably. It was warm and comfortable here. There was also endless food. It was simply heaven.
"Are you all satisfied with the food?"
At this moment, the Demon King's voice made them sit up immediately.
"Yes! It's very good. "
"Thank you."
"It's delicious."
"It's the first time I've eaten such delicious food in my life."
The Patriarchs said one after another.
"Then, after eating and drinking, it's time to talk about business."
Hearing this, the Patriarchs immediately became silent. Uneasiness filled the entire hall.
"I know what you're going through. I also sympathize with you. So, I gathered all the Patriarchs and held this meeting." Saying this, the Demon King snapped his fingers. Suddenly, the wall behind him disappeared. Behind his seat, there was a huge warehouse. Inside, there was a small hill of wheat.
"I won't beat around the bush. As long as you obey me and become my servant, I will give you enough food to get through this winter. I will let all of your people stay away from hunger."
Hearing this, the Beastmen and Devil Clan exploded.
"We, the Leopard Tribe, will not become the servant of any race!"
"If it's to be loyal to you, it's fine. But not to be a servant!"
"Yes! We can be loyal to you like the Boar King, but we will never become your servant. "
The Patriarchs fiercely resisted. The Demon King looked at them with a sneer. Like the Boar King?
That's ridiculous. The Boar Race only saw them as slaves. They were just a subsidiary race so that they could retain a trace of self-esteem.
But the Demon King Richard would not do such superfluous things. His rule must be absolute! Either obey! Or die!!
However, at this moment, the most calm Centaur Tribe suddenly took a few steps back. Its hooves made a clattering sound as it stepped on the wooden floor. It walked in front of the Demon King. The noisy Patriarchs immediately shut their mouths and watched its every move.
Centaurs were the most violent race in the Ufa Great Forest. They definitely did not want to be ridden, so they would definitely take the lead in resisting! Maybe they could take advantage of the chaos to get some food!
However, just as everyone was thinking this, the Centaur Tribe Patriarch placed his right hand on his lower abdomen, lowered his head, and suddenly knelt on the ground with a loud thud.
"We, the Centaur Tribe, are willing to be your servant, respected Lord Richard."
In an instant, the other Patriarchs opened their mouths wide.
