After Stoick heard Hiccup's summons, he ordered his Viking Warriors to continue building warships, then headed towards the direction of the small wooden house.
The door of the small wooden house was still so short. Stoick struggled to squeeze in, muttering as he did, "This door really needs to be replaced!"
Dusting himself off, Stoick looked at Hiccup with some confusion, as Hiccup was currently taking care of Night Fury.
Meanwhile, Night Fury was lying on its back, four paws in the air, twisting its neck back and forth, clearly enjoying itself.
Upon seeing Stoick, Hiccup put down the Dragon Mint in his hand and said with a determined gaze, "I found the Dragon Nest!"
"What!?"
Stoick simply couldn't believe his ears.
He widened his eyes and quickly walked over to Hiccup, examining him from head to toe, then widened his eyes and said, "What did you say? Say it again!"
"You didn't mishear! I found the Dragon Nest!" Hiccup pushed away the large hand on his shoulder, then handed a map to Stoick and said, "This is the map of the area near the Dragon Nest!"
"Excellent! Excellent! This is truly excellent!"
"For hundreds of years, our ancestors never stopped searching for the Dragon Nest! Destroying the Dragon Nest is the greatest glory on Berk Island! Hiccup, you will never know how much trouble your discovery has solved for Berk Island!"
"You will also never know what a great achievement it will be, and how much glory we will gain if we attack the Dragon Nest! It will simply be recorded in history!"
"So that future generations on Berk Island can remember the achievements of us, father and son, and sing praises of our glory!"
Stoick spoke the last sentence with great sincerity, as this was something he had always longed for.
Not only was it to avenge his wife, but also for the will of the ancestors on Berk Island!
Hiccup, seeing his excitement, immediately said, "I don't plan on bringing you along! To be precise, I don't plan on bringing the Viking Warriors on the island along!"
When Stoick heard this, his smile froze on his face!
"No! No! No! Hiccup, listen to me! Although the Dragon Knight is very powerful, he still needs our help!"
"Let me lead the warriors of Berk Island to conquer the Dragon Nest with you, and we will surely achieve a great victory! And we can even subdue more Dragons!"
Stoick said confidently.
However, Hiccup merely smiled slightly and did not directly agree to his words.
The disappointment on Stoick's face became even more apparent. He was angry, disappointed, and even somewhat helplessly clutched his forehead.
Because he had to admit that Hiccup now had the qualifications to lead the Dragon Knight into battle, and was even stronger than him!
However, conquering the Dragon Nest was his lifelong wish!
Hiccup smiled and said, "If you want me to bring you along, I can! But I have a condition!"
Stoick immediately turned his head and stared at Hiccup with wide eyes. At first, he wanted to say, "I won't agree to any condition!"
But now, under someone else's roof, he had to bow his head. Only Hiccup knew the location of Dragon Island, and they could go there by riding a Dragon!
As he thought of this, Stoick's eyes instantly filled with the light of hope again, and he muttered to himself, "If it wasn't to bring myself and the warriors of Berk Island, why would we build warships?"
"We could just fly there directly with the Dragon Knight!"
So he looked at Hiccup and said, "What's your condition? Tell me!"
Hiccup immediately said, "I require that the Vikings participating in this battle must obey orders and follow commands!"
"If the war fails because of one person's madness, it's not just one person's death; it can easily lead to everyone losing their lives because of him!"
"Father, as the chief, you should understand this! If you can't do it, I will absolutely not lead these people into battle!"
As the chief of Berk Island, how could he not understand this principle? So he fell silent.
After all, these crazy and stubborn Vikings would definitely be the bravest warriors on the battlefield, but also the most troublesome ones!
Hiccup patted Stoick's shoulder and said, "It's time for a change!"
With that, Hiccup and Night Fury left directly, because Night Fury had already recovered, and now they needed to go to the Blacksmith Shop to forge new weapons!
After all, even if all the Dragon Knight were sent into battle, the Blacksmith Shop's weapon production could not stop, because there would be many more wars to fight after Dragon Island!
These wars were not actively provoked; they were all defensive wars! Therefore, they must have weapons for defense, and at the same time, be able to take the initiative and fight back!
As Hiccup reached the door of the small wooden house, Stoick suddenly said, "Good! I agree!"
Upon hearing this, Hiccup turned back and smiled at Stoick, then flipped onto Night Fury's back and headed straight for the Blacksmith Shop.
Along the way, he encountered Old Dragon Snout, and a thought suddenly popped into Hiccup's mind!
Immediately, Hiccup spoke to Snotlout in Dragon Language, "Snotlout! For the next period, I need you to guard the Dragon Jail!"
Old Dragon Snout, as the oldest Dragon and the Dragon whose combat power was second only to Night Fury, would only obey Hiccup's commands and only recognized Hiccup as his Dragon Knight!
Therefore, no one else was qualified to sit on Snotlout's neck!
And when he heard Hiccup's command, his vertically slit pupils stared at Hiccup and said, "Gladly!"
After all, guarding the Dragon Jail was a matter of great importance. It not only required a strong and obedient Dragon, but also the collection of magical liquid!
For all of this, only Old Dragon Snout was most suitable!
After everything was handled, Hiccup trained with these Dragon Knight every day!
At the same time, he also cultivated their tactical awareness: no matter what the situation, no matter how many enemies they encountered, the formation must not be broken!
Of course, the most important training items were weight-bearing and maneuverability!
They not only had to fly fast and for a long time, but also had to be agile, so that even if they couldn't breathe fire in the end, they would still have an advantage in close combat!
And these days, Stoick was also strictly selecting the candidates for the battle! After all, it was a matter of great importance, so he had to be careful and cautious!
Although every Viking who heard the news rushed to sign up! But Stoick would not easily agree, even if these people swore in the name of the gods in front of Stoick.
He would also carefully consider it and would never casually agree! Hiccup looked at this situation and nodded with satisfaction, thinking, "In three more days, the first warship will be launched!"
