In the north of the oasis, a hidden underground cavern lies, the domain of the Lamia. The cavern is vast, filled with countless gigantic stalactites hanging from the ceiling, some over fifty meters in diameter.
The Lamia have built their homes among these magnificent stalactites, which provide a safe and secret haven due to their stability and size. On a massive stalactite, nearly 100 meters thick, resides the Lamia Queen.
A young and beautiful Lamia approached the door and knocked, saying, "Queen Lya, it's me."
"Cassana? Come in."
A mature and gentle woman's voice responded from inside.
Upon entering, Cassana saw a Lamia bathing, her upper body exposed, revealing her large, white breasts.
She was also very beautiful, with golden pupils. Although she was the Lamia Queen, her bloodline wasn't pure; she hadn't evolved into a Medusa yet. Therefore, while bathing, her snake tail hung outside.
Seeing Cassana, the Lamia Queen smiled gently, cradling her breasts, "Look, they have grown bigger and more beautiful."
Cassana appeared slightly shy, lowering her head and stammering, "My Queen, I have come to report to you."
"Speak," Lya said calmly.
"Roder has been gone for a day now, and I've lost contact with him," Cassana reported.
Lya's expression turned serious as she stepped out of the bath. This matter deserved attention.
After all, this time Roder was attacking the ogres near the oasis. These ogres, although somewhat foolish, were still quite strong in battle.
However, Lya still held a bit of optimistic hope. She thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that Roder had to go somewhere else for something urgent? As far as I know, that foolish ogre chieftain nearby had recently provoked the Red Dragon Queen and was killed by her on the spot. Without their chieftain, the ogre tribe's fighting ability would be very weak."
Cassana pondered for a moment, "Hmm, maybe, Your Majesty. Then I'll take my leave for now and come back to report if there's any situation."
Lya gently extended her hand and patted Cassana's head, "Go ahead, you've worked hard."
Two hours later.
Cassana reappeared in a hurry, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
Upon pushing open the door, she saw not only Lya in the room but also a barbarian male and an even more muscular elephant man.
The elephant man's body was extremely strong, his penis thicker than the barbarian male's thighs.
This comparison was made because it was the scene Cassana witnessed and her first impression.
The characteristic of snakes is that their mouths can suddenly enlarge when eating, swallowing prey larger than their own bodies.
Of course, what Lya was swallowing now was not prey, but the elephant man's fifth leg. She was now suspended in mid-air, like a skewer.
The other barbarian was also very strong, but he could only lie on the ground, constantly stroking and kissing Lya's breasts. Perhaps, this was the secret to Lya's increasingly good-looking breasts.
Seeing this scene, Cassana screamed and retreated, her cheeks instantly turning red!
The elephant man and the barbarian left in a panic, even forgetting to put on their clothes.
"Come, come in."
Lya's somewhat hoarse voice came from inside the room. She took out a piece of paper to wipe off the white, unidentified liquid on her mouth and reset her dislocated jaw with her hand.
Cassana cautiously peeked inside and only entered after confirming that Lya was alone.
Lya's mature and sensual face still held a deep blush that hadn't faded.
Cassana awkwardly asked, "Your Majesty, what were you doing just now? We haven't evolved into Medusas yet; does doing such things really have any meaning?"
"My dear child, don't worry about that for now; tell me what you've found out."
Lya, also slightly embarrassed, quickly covered her bare upper body with a cloth.
Cassana regained her composure and said, "A cave dweller reported to me that Lord Roder has been captured by the ogre tribe, and it seems he has been mistreated by them."
"Cave dwellers? How credible are their words?" Lya asked, somewhat surprised.
She knew Roder's strength well. Though he might be somewhat lacking in bed, as a knight, he was quite capable.
Even if he couldn't defeat the ogres, with the help of his Kodo beast, escaping should be no problem. How could he have been captured?
Regardless, Lya was skeptical of the cave dwellers' words.
However, Cassana took out a badge and held it out to Lya, "This was passed to me by the cave dwellers. This object belongs personally to Roder; this alone should suffice as proof."
Seeing the badge in Cassana's hand, Lya sighed, "It seems Roder really has been captured by the ogres. We can't abandon him. I'll assign some to you, and you'll go to the ogre tribe tonight. They are not very vigilant, so as long as you move quietly and avoid direct conflict, rescuing Roder shouldn't be a problem."
"Oh, alright, Your Majesty."
Cassana then prepared to leave.
Lya called out to her again, a hint of shyness on her beautiful and mature face, "But next time, please knock on the door before entering."
"I understand, Your Majesty!" Cassana, blushing, hurriedly left.
...
Late at night, in the ogre camp.
By the campfire, an ogre was snoring loudly in its sleep, while a jackal-man sentinel at the entrance, with its eerie blue eyes, vigilantly scanned the surroundings. It hadn't forgotten its duty: guarding the entrance.
Though, the ogre tribe didn't actually have a proper gate.
Deep into the night, the symphony of the ogres' heavy snores was the only sound in the vicinity. Suddenly, the jackal-man at the entrance sprang up, raising its poisoned crossbow and growling threateningly.
"Woo~~~ Awooo Awooo Woof Woof!! Grrrrr~~~"
A series of unique jackal-man howls echoed throughout the ogre camp, shattering the ogres' peaceful slumber. It was about to attack, but then it remembered its current role was merely that of a watchdog.
Wasn't waking up the ogres enough? After all, its duty was just to guard the entrance.
No bones to gain, no life to risk – hence the continuous howling of the jackal-man.
"ROAR!!!"
A startled ogre sat up abruptly, letting out a deafening roar. Immediately afterward, Star peered outside and then ran towards Alexander's room.
At that moment, Alexander was still sound asleep, with several female slaves diligently massaging him. They had no reason to slack off, as they could only get enough quality food from Alexander.
"Alexander, Alexander, are you awake?"
Before even reaching Alexander's residence, Star's loud and somewhat silly voice made Alexander suddenly open his eyes.
"Sleeping too deeply isn't good. You'll lose your vigilance sooner or later," Alexander muttered to himself. Just then, Star's voice rang out again.
"Alexander, Alexander, are you awake? WAAAGH!"
Well, that certainly woke Alexander up for good.
He stood up and said: "I'm awake now. If I wasn't, your shouting would have done the job!"
