The dead Lizard Beasts weren't wasted. After being salvaged, they were all wholesaled to Baron Caryo.
Those who dabble in magic are not paupers, they have plenty of capital to toss around. Magical Materials are always in demand.
Hudson was quite satisfied with the sale of over forty lizard beasts for the price of 800 Gold Coins.
If it hadn't been for the fortuitous appearance of Baron Caryo, these ugly, foul-smelling monsters would probably have ended up in the stomachs of Orc Slaves.
Unfortunately, Hudson had forgotten to instruct Belsden to capture some alive. According to Baron Caryo, the price for live Lizard Beasts could triple.
The price was high mainly because humans considered the swamp to be a forbidden area. Even with a team to delve deep into the swamp, it would be difficult to pry these creatures from the depths of the mire.
Hudson had no interest in participating in extravagant magic research. With this time, he would rather learn Bearman Clan Magic from Belsden.
