Chapter 817 The World of Giant Crocodiles: A Reproduction Crisis
The Crocodile God, clad in black armor, sat imposingly on a golden chair, his body as large as a mountain, a single finger of which was as big as the entire Crocodile Prince.
But he lowered his head with utmost tenderness, gently extended his finger, and gave his son a high five.
"My son is so thoughtful. Quickly, let your father have a taste."
As the king of a major world, what fine wine hasn't Crocodile God tasted?
He had drunk all the wines in Tianjie, so how could his foolish son possibly buy any new varieties?
But in order not to disappoint his son, he still smiled and pretended to be very interested.
The young prince immediately waved his hand happily, and one by one, large wine jars fell down.
These wine jars are specially made, and each jar contains a hundred catties of fine wine.
After all, it was too little, not even enough for Crocodile God to have a taste. Even so, these wine jars were still far smaller in size than Crocodile God.
The young prince excitedly introduced, "I spent a whole day finding these for Father. They're all wines I've never seen before. I bought a hundred catties of each! Father, please try them!"
"Alright, alright, you little rascal, Daddy will try it now."
The Crocodile God spoke kindly, and the next second, all the wine jars flew up automatically, without even the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy, as if they were shrouded by some kind of rule, and automatically lined up in a row.
As soon as the Crocodile God opened his mouth, the first jar of wine was poured into his mouth.
Hundreds of kilograms of wine were barely enough for Crocodile God to take a small sip.
He pretended to look like he was appreciating the wine, and opened the wine jars one by one.
"This jar is good."
"This jar has a unique flavor too."
“My son really knows how to buy things; this jar also has a unique fragrance.”
"Hmm, and this jar too. Although its spiritual energy is a bit weak and the taste is quite rough, but..."
Crocodile God drank one of the jars of wine and was about to say that he liked anything his son bought.
But the next second, as the wine entered his stomach, some mysterious spiritual energy was suddenly absorbed by his body.
In just a moment, Crocodile God felt a surge of heat in his heart.
His eyes widened, and he wore an expression of disbelief.
how can that be!
He was the God of Crocodiles, the supreme king who carried the will of the world. With his strength and physical body, how could any wine possibly cause him to fluctuate?
Indeed, at this moment, even the mighty Crocodile God felt his blood and qi being affected by the alcohol, which also stirred up a long-forgotten thought.
"Could it be that this wine is an aphrodisiac?"
Crocodile God couldn't help but speak in a low voice. He didn't completely believe it, because his physical body was too powerful, and no aphrodisiac wine should have any effect on him.
So he closed his eyes and carefully felt it again.
Sure enough, there was a slight sensation. Although it was very faint, for a powerful being of this level, even if only a single cell in their body was affected, they could clearly feel it.
Therefore, the Crocodile God suddenly opened his eyes, no longer caring about tasting other fine wines, and stood up directly. With a movement of his huge body, the entire palace trembled.
The young prince was stunned, not understanding why his father was reacting so strongly.
Crocodile God asked excitedly, "Where did you buy this jar from?"
The young prince stammered, "This...this...it seems to be Gray Clothes Alley..."
"Grey Clothes Alley?"
Crocodile God blinked, looking bewildered.
This name was somewhat unfamiliar to him. After all, as the supreme king, he had never been to such a low-end place. He only frequented places like the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Central Avenue.
He didn't even glance at the dilapidated alleyways where stalls were set up.
But upon hearing his son say that, he disregarded his status and immediately shouted outside, "Summon all clan leaders, I have something to announce!"
"I obey the king's orders!"
An answer came immediately from outside.
Soon, the ten crocodile patriarchs who had received the message arrived.
The Crocodile God walked out of the palace and looked at the ten crocodiles that were respectfully prostrating before him, feeling a deep sense of sorrow.
That's right. In this vast main world, the giant crocodile clan only has these ten clan leaders, and each clan has a population of less than 100,000.
This number is far too small; it's more accurate to say they are facing a crisis of extinction.
Unfortunately, the will of Heaven bestowed upon the giant crocodiles unparalleled strength, but also gave them abysmal reproductive abilities.
Therefore, reproduction is of paramount importance here.
The Crocodile God glanced around and asked, "How many newborns have been born in your clans this time?"
Upon hearing this, the clan leaders broke out in a cold sweat and dared not utter a sound.
There really isn't one...
The Crocodile God was furious: "What are you all doing! If this continues, it's only a matter of time before my clan is destroyed! But just now, my son brought back a kind of spiritual wine. I tried it, and it actually has a slight aphrodisiac effect."
"what!"
All the clan leaders looked up at the same time, their eyes filled with both shock and ecstasy.
It can even make the capital feel a slight effect!
Don't underestimate the power of a tiny amount; it might not have much effect on the king, but that's because the king is too strong.
If it were a regular giant crocodile, wouldn't the effect be magnified many times over?
There's a reason why the giant crocodile race has difficulty reproducing: because they are cold-blooded animals and cannot maintain a state of reproduction indefinitely. If this wine is real, wouldn't it greatly accelerate their reproduction cycle?
Time is life!
Therefore, all the clan leaders cheered with joy.
"The prince is wise!"
"My king! Please grant my people some barns!"
The Crocodile God flicked his finger, and all the clan leaders fell silent.
"Don't be too happy yet. The specific effects still need to be verified. I will personally go and get some to bring back and test it. Only then will we know whether this is an opportunity for our clan."
"My king is wise!"
The Crocodile God nodded, then closed his eyes, remaining as still as a mountain.
The water was silent, while at the same time, in the other-dimensional sky street.
For the first time, Crocodile God disguised his identity. He transformed into a cloud of black mist and followed the street signs of Heavenly Street, heading straight for Gray Clothes Alley on Vermilion Bird Street.
The narrow alley was crowded with stalls.
Crocodile God frowned slightly, but showed no disdain. He simply skipped over all the stalls in front of him and headed straight for the last one.
My son said he bought the wine from a stall at the very back, and it wasn't cheap; one Tianjie coin could only buy one jin (500 grams).
The jar I just drank cost my son 100 Tianjie coins.
Just as Crocodile God was walking forward, Ye Kang also arrived at his warehouse on the other side.
Upon seeing the transaction records and the extra 100 Tianjie coins in his account, Ye Kang was overjoyed.
"One hundred coins! We've met a benefactor!"
Ye Kang's joy was palpable; all he needed now was Heavenly Street Coins.
After all, repairing that section of the Heavenly Axe Spear requires a top-tier earth-grade treasure, and Ye Kang simply cannot obtain such a treasure outside of the Heavenly Street.
But now that I have this savings, I can finally go shopping and maybe find something cheaper...
Just as he was thinking this, the butler's voice rang out again.
"Boss, someone else has come to buy alcohol."
