Not only have I undergone evolution (AN: Their strengthening is more purification of the bloodline than evolution), but those children who farmed also received a considerable part of the experience. Right now, even the weakest among them have level 8 strength. And those who are stronger have the strength of level 16. And some diligent ones were able to evolve. There are no more than 12 of them, but they all received considerable strength from evolutions. Also, Shadow snakes have become "cleaner"

These snakes seem to have undergone not only purification but also evolution. I tested their new abilities and was surprised. The body of the shadow allows them to become one with their shadow for a while. They look like a shadow without a host and they are easily noticed in the light, but at night it is as difficult to notice them as it is to see yourself in a person's eye at a distance of a meter. In general, it is possible, but not a victim.
Others have also evolved. There are a lot of them, about 100. All of them are either experienced hunters or those who killed many in that battle. It looks like my evolution forced them to evolve as well, reducing the requirements, but I'm not sure about that.
While we were solving a problem in the city, Matthew came to us, and after talking with him a little, we sent him home, saying that we would soon have a lot of things to do, and we would like to buy the resources for our affairs. At first, he was shocked by what had happened and could not formulate the question correctly, but realizing that he would not be able to find out at least a grain of information about it, he stopped all conversations and left to fulfill the contract. He's a relatively reliable person, so I think I can trust him. But a backup plan wouldn't hurt. After that, I gathered all the important people in the conference room and we started discussing our problems. There were 24 dragonoids in the office, they were competent, smart, and worked hard. There was a circular chair in the office, in the center of which was a map, it was a copy of the map of Matthew.
-First of all, -Andre began, -we have a problem with the concentration of our race. There are still villages that live too far away, and the connection with them is very long. We need to build cities and move our brethren closer, but do you have any ideas on how to build so that all cities have a direct and fast connection.
There was a brief silence in the room until one of them stood up and looked in my direction. I nodded, letting him speak.
- I propose to make cities on these trade routes. - He took a magic stick and guided through several places - We can build on the main roads of the city, so it would be easier for us to control strangers on earth and it will also allow us to communicate faster. Isn't that better?
Then another dragonoid got up from his seat and looked into my eyes. I decided to speak this time
-You can freely speak your opinions and ideas without asking my permission. I will listen and notice those ideas that may be applicable. Does everyone agree?
- Yes!- everyone answered. After a short silence, the same person stood up and began to speak.
-But where should we stop? We need to calculate how much land we need, and how much we can control without unnecessary problems.
- Maybe we need to unite with another race? There are too few of us, and even though we are stronger than other races, especially after purification, we can simply be crushed by numbers.
- Your fears are groundless, and even if we unite with whom? Unfortunately, there is no one left here who remembers the cause of the great war, and the one with whom we fought side by side. The was has been very messy. Too little information has been preserved, and its reliability is under question.
- Yes. Only Elder Sean knows about some of the races he fought side by side with, but he doesn't know where they were sent to, - Andre said
-That's right, damn humanity. Maybe we should send a couple of squads to search for races according to Elder Sean's notes?
- I think it's possible, but who should I send and where? Do not scour our people in every bush in search of them. It's better to try to find out their approximate location, if I'm not mistaken, then the union has information about them.
- We can ask them, but what should we do if they consider us a threat because of this?
- I have doubts about it, they need us. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, as they say. It makes no sense for them to make an enemy out of a potential friend.
- It makes sense, but still, I think we'd better take up as much space as would be enough to support 100,000 people. In the end, it may come out that we will need more land, so we can take as much.
- But can we hold so much land? What if our disgruntled neighbors try to start a second round during the construction of cities? We're now just like a young lion, in the future no one will be equal to us, however, now we're no different from a kitty. We need to be prepared.
- I agree, but it requires a lot of things from us. We should take a couple of key places for trading and quick communication.
- How many years will it take us to build dozens of cities? And how much they will be protected. And we still need to spend time looking for suitable places for cities. Do we need to gather people for reconnaissance already?
- I think so, - said Andre -Master, can we ask your opinion?
- I think it's worth taking enough land to support 100,000 people. And yes, prepare people for exploration in search of suitable places. And also see which cities are better to capture. I think we should show our might to humans, otherwise, they might act unpredictably. Is everything clear to everyone?
- yes!- everyone answered
