Looking at his companions behind him, who were trembling with fear, Hiccup smiled faintly and said, "Don't be afraid with me here!"
Upon hearing this, his companions felt much more at ease, but it was impossible for them not to worry at all.
However, Hiccup wasn't worried in the slightest, because these Timberjack Dragons were usually calm and gentle, only revealing their fierce side when protecting their rider or their clan.
Therefore, it was common to see other Dragon species actively attacking humans; if one didn't provoke a Timberjack Dragon, its bladed wings would not be extended towards humans.
"Roar~~!"
"Roar~~!"
The two Timberjack Dragons were conversing in Dragon Language, but to the other companions, it sounded like the two Timberjack Dragons were roaring at each other, as if about to fight.
However, Hiccup heard clearly that these two Timberjack Dragons were showing off how sharp their wings were.
Suddenly, they spotted Hiccup and his group, and immediately became alert.
"Roar~! (Who are you, and why are you here?!)"
Although it only roared once, the amount of information conveyed was indeed that extensive.
Hiccup immediately spoke in Dragon Language, "Don't be nervous, I'm just here to make a deal with you!"
His companions looked at Hiccup, bewildered, as he mimicked the sound of a Dragon, and their intuition told them that Hiccup was conversing with these Dragons, seemingly quite pleasantly.
Despite having many questions in their hearts, they wouldn't interrupt Hiccup at this moment.
"Roar~~!"
The two Timberjack Dragons flew directly over, seemingly to converse more closely. After all, even if Hiccup could speak Dragon Language, he was still just a human, and his lung capacity was not even close to that of a Dragon.
As these two Timberjack Dragons flew, Hiccup could clearly see that these Timberjack Dragons had no forelimbs, only small foot claws used for standing normally.
The rest of its body resembled a snake with gradually narrowing wings, with only a Dragon head! Western Dragons were indeed this bizarre.
"Roar~~!"
Hiccup covered his ears; at such close proximity, he couldn't quite bear it. Night Fury was also a bit speechless, taking Hiccup to land on the highest branch.
There was no other way; Timberjack Dragons were simply too tall when standing.
"Human! How do you want to cooperate!?"
Hiccup immediately said, "I see there aren't many Timberjack Dragons on this island; it must be due to a scarcity of food!"
The Timberjack Dragon's vertical pupils immediately came close to Hiccup's face. Night Fury instantly began to bare its teeth, signaling the Timberjack Dragon to keep its distance, and his companions behind him also held their breath for Hiccup.
However, Hiccup directly reached out and touched the Timberjack Dragon's horn, expressing his goodwill.
Finally, the Timberjack Dragon withdrew its head and said, "That's right! Our clan is about to leave this island! It's because there isn't much food on the island!"
Hiccup immediately said, "That works out perfectly! I can provide food to support you, but I want you to hone your wings here every day until you become stronger!"
Upon hearing this, the Timberjack Dragon was stunned! It even subconsciously looked at its own blade-like wings.
It simply couldn't understand why this human would give it food and even help them become stronger.
Hiccup said indifferently, "Do you see these Dragons!? They can eat their fill every day, and even eat sheep~!"
At this moment, Hiccup was completely a marketing master, completely bewildering these two Timberjack Dragons.
The two innocent Timberjack Dragons naturally said with ecstatic joy, "Good! We agree!"
"If you dare to deceive us, our Timberjack Dragon clan will absolutely not let you off!"
Hiccup directly said to the chubby Fishlegs, "Give me the chicken legs you've hidden!"
The chubby Fishlegs had no idea what was happening, and subconsciously threw the two turkey legs he was holding directly to Hiccup. After throwing them, he drooled with regret.
In his heart, he couldn't help but think, "I should have taken two more bites just now!"
Hiccup caught the turkey legs, and looking at the two drooling Timberjack Dragons, he immediately said somewhat speechlessly, "Quickly put out this fire!"
If a Timberjack Dragon's saliva landed on any flammable material, it would ignite a roaring fire. If the entire island were to burn down, it would be heartbreaking.
Fortunately, although it was troublesome for humans to extinguish this fire, for a Timberjack Dragon, it was just a matter of flapping a wing.
Then, the two Timberjack Dragons contentedly swallowed the entire turkey leg in one bite, and said with enjoyment, "We've been hungry for two days! After eating this, we can definitely last another two days!"
The other Timberjack Dragon also chimed in, "I can last three more days!"
Hiccup heard their words and suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for them, not because they were hungry, but because these two innocent Timberjack Dragons had directly revealed all their weaknesses in front of him.
This way, it would be even easier for him to trick them into working for him.
Immediately, Hiccup said, "Go! Bring all your clan members here! And leave this place with me temporarily! Once I've fed you, then return to this island!"
Upon hearing this, the two Timberjack Dragons almost burst into tears.
The word "full" had not been heard for a long time, and being full was simply their beautiful wish.
Therefore, the two Timberjack Dragons roared excitedly towards the sky.
Initially, they thought the two were just too excited, but later they discovered that this was actually a unique signal of their Timberjack Dragon clan.
Upon hearing this roar, more than ten Timberjack Dragons of varying sizes immediately appeared before Hiccup's eyes.
The two Timberjack Dragons excitedly said to them, "This human not only gives us food, but also wants to help us become stronger!"
"That's right, that's right! Now he's even inviting us to his island for a feast!"
Originally, they were unwilling to believe it, especially the older Dragons, who had seen Dragon catchers before, so they were still very wary and could not be as naive as these two.
So, the largest old Dragon walked up to Hiccup and scrutinized him. Hiccup immediately said in Dragon Language, "You need food, and I need these logs!"
"I'll give you food, and you help me log!"
The old Dragon's vertical pupils widened in astonishment. It had lived for so long and this was the first time it had encountered a human who could speak Dragon Language, and a human who also had a Dragon companion. So, it lowered some of its guard and agreed to the trade.
It looked at Night Fury, then at Hiccup, and then rasped, "I hope you, human, haven't lied to me!"
Only then did it command the entire clan to line up in an orderly fashion, awaiting departure.
