The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 261: Everyone Has a Lizard Dragon

Su Chen didn't have time to observe anything else right now. His eyes were fixed on a small creature in front of him.

This thing looked like a lizard, but it stood on its hind legs and was taller than the average adult male when standing up.

"Chen Yi, did you hatch it like this?" Su Chen's mouth twitched.

Yes, this thing was a Lizard Dragon, to be precise, a Lizard Dragon that was much smaller than usual. It hatched from a Lizard Dragon egg.

For so long, Su Chen had forgotten about this egg, but he didn't expect one of his engineers, Chen Yi, to hatch it.

"Commander, originally I was going to cook and eat this egg, but I forgot about it. By the time I remembered, the embryo inside had already formed, so I thought it might be useful to hatch it. Who knows?" Chen Yi looked a little embarrassed.

Su Chen didn't care about this. It was just a small Lizard Dragon. What did that matter?

What he cared about was what the appearance of the small Lizard Dragon could bring him.

Suddenly, Su Chen thought of a crucial question. Lizard Dragons are male, so how do they lay eggs?

Soon, the Lizard Dragon turned into a humanoid form and came here. When the Lizard Dragon saw the small Lizard Dragon for the first time, it knew it was its child.

But in front of the Commander, the Lizard Dragon saluted properly and said, "Lizard Dragon greets Commander."

"Well, this is your son. I have a question for you."

"Commander, please ask."

"Aren't you male? How can you lay eggs?"

"To be serious, I am the only Lizard Dragon in the world, and I am a hermaphrodite. I can reproduce on my own." The Lizard Dragon answered seriously.

Su Chen was really impressed. The humanoid Lizard Dragon looked like a man, but that didn't matter.

What matters is how to deal with this small Lizard Dragon.

"Commander, I think, since it is my child, it should naturally be your warrior. Commander, please let my child become the same as I am." The Lizard Dragon said respectfully.

Su Chen understood what the Lizard Dragon meant. He wanted the small Lizard Dragon to become his subordinate, which meant the small Lizard Dragon had to give him its energy pearl.

The small Lizard Dragon didn't hesitate and spat out the energy pearl, placing it in Su Chen's hand.

At that moment, the System's voice sounded, "Congratulations to the host for successfully absorbing a new species as a subordinate for the first time. The reward is that Lizard Dragon will become one of the Red Alert units, a weapon upgrade opportunity, and a species evolution opportunity."

Su Chen was startled at first, then overjoyed. This was truly an unexpected surprise.

He didn't expect that just by subduing a small Lizard Dragon, there would be such great benefits. If he had known, he would have subdued the small Lizard Dragon long ago.

"System, didn't I already subdue the Lizard Dragon earlier? Why didn't I get any rewards?" Su Chen was puzzled.

"Only by subduing a complete species for the first time can you get the rewards. And you must not miss any, not even a small Lizard Dragon." The System explained.

Su Chen finally understood that there were so many rules.

He knew the other two rewards, but what surprised him the most was that the Lizard Dragon had become one of the Red Alert units. He could hardly believe it.

He opened the interface and saw that there was indeed a new icon in the units section, displaying the Lizard Dragon.

In other words, from now on, the Lizard Dragon would be a standard unit of Red Alert, just like the Hounds!

Su Chen had always wanted to equip his units with a mobile force, but unfortunately, he lacked a large mount. The appearance of the Lizard Dragon made up for this regret.

In some special places, tanks were very inconvenient, but for the Lizard Dragon, any place was as smooth as walking on flat ground.

Su Chen directly let the System build some Lizard Dragons, and soon they were produced. This made the big Lizard Dragon confused. How come so many of its kind suddenly appeared? It had never found any of its kind, so how did so many suddenly appear here?

Su Chen observed that the Lizard Dragons constructed had innate abilities that were inferior to those of the big Lizard Dragons, but overall, they were still good. They were the perfect size and very suitable to be used as mounts for mobile teams.

Currently, the Red Alert soldiers were the largest group in the team, but they had a limitation - they had to complete a promotion task to continue improving their strength. Those who failed would forever remain at the peak of the fourth level.josei

As time passed, the strength of these soldiers had fallen behind the rest of the army and they were only used for logistics support by Su Chen. If they had the assistance of Lizard Dragons, becoming strong warriors would not be a dream.

Just the thought of everyone having a Lizard Dragon made Su Chen unable to resist laughing.

Su Chen began to build a large number of Lizard Dragons, preparing to create some mobile teams that would definitely come in handy.

The Lizard Dragon brought Su Chen a pleasant surprise - a weapon upgrade opportunity. However, this time he didn't plan to use it on the Celestial Armor, which was already very powerful. Even if he continued to upgrade it, the cost of construction would be very high and unnecessary.

"What is the next weapon that needs to be upgraded?"

Although the Celestial Armor was extremely powerful, it lacked strength in underwater combat. Su Chen felt that it was time to improve his underwater weapons.

In Red Alert, there weren't many underwater weapons, apart from the Dolphin and Giant Squid - two species that had been modified - there were only submarines left.

Su Chen's first choice was the Thunder Submarine, a Yuri faction attack submarine.

This thing was second only to the Superweapon and had a lot of power. In the game, it was the best weapon for sneaky attacks, and its weapon power was equally powerful.

Su Chen believed that the upgraded Thunder Submarine would definitely not disappoint him.

Su Chen currently had five Shipyards, one of which was built around Haichen City. If it weren't for Su Chen not allowing anyone to approach the area, the people of Haichen City would have probably gone over to take a look.

After all, the situation around the Shipyard was too spectacular - a carrier plus various destroyers and cruisers - it made people feel safe.

Although humans had lost the ocean for many years and all warships had become scrap, they had never forgotten their ambition to conquer the ocean - of course, it was only an ambition.

When they saw so many warships appear, their ambitious spirit surged again, and they believed that the time had come for humanity to conquer the ocean.

Su Chen appeared around the Shipyard; a Thunder Submarine emerged silently from the water. No, to be precise, it was the upgraded Thunder Submarine.

It looked a lot cooler than before, not as round, a bit pointed. Its weapons were even more powerful; if the Thunder Submarine were to take action, it would have a chance against an 8th Order Early-Term Emperor.

Correspondingly, the cost of the Thunder Submarine was not low, which made Su Chen feel a bit distressed. If it weren't for the significant amount of energy provided by the oil field, he would have become broke.

"So, who should get the species evolution opportunity this time?"
