Well, the Scout Leader had spoken. They could not go against him since he was not only stronger than them but he was also given authority by the higher-ups. They had to stand with the Reptilian man.
After asking what they should do, the Reptilian looked around and then after another moment of thinking, decided to scour the continent's periphery until they found a human settlement. If the humans were smart, they would not just have one of these, they would have multiple, scattered all over the continent at major resource points and useful locations.
After making this decision, they made their way around the beach, and then after a few more minutes, they found a settlement with a few humans who were not doing anything important. But these humans looked weak… Well, this was fine too. It meant that they were easy to handle.
