Chapter 75: Each Has His Own Thoughts! (First Update)
It was getting dark.
Dark Blade-Andry's expression was not very good when he walked out of the hall. The drow warrior he brought had already been settled in another residence, and when he returned, someone was already waiting for him. These drow seemed not to be completely at ease with Sauron. After they settled down, they were still fully armed, just quietly waiting for the return of the leader. Drow are suspicious intelligent beings, and it is difficult for them to trust others for a short period of time.
"How about it?"
A drow warrior with a younger face stood up and asked, "Master Dark Blade! What did your Excellency say?"
Dark Blade-Andrei looked at the others and noticed that they also wanted to know what the lord asked for, and finally he could only sigh helplessly: "He hopes that we can serve him and fight for him, as long as we can do this One point, the ethnic group can get a steady stream of supplies, and he even promised to let us move here to live."
Those words silenced many.
Because it sounds like a good condition at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, there is suspicion of annexation. I am afraid that the drow elves do not want to be controlled by a human being. Mutual cooperation is the limit they can accept at present. Unless Sauron's power is so strong that they can't resist or refuse, they can easily erase their existence. Before coming here, the female priests had already made up their minds. In fact, the group of women still felt disgusted and distrusted humans. Otherwise, it would not be a male drow who led the team.
You must know that males in drow are born with a lower status than females!
"Master Dark Blade!" A young drow warrior hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "Didn't we just think that this would happen before we came? After all, there is no free food in the world, so he will definitely need us to pay something! If it’s just fighting for him, it’s nothing to us, after all, we haven’t dealt with the natives once or twice.”
What is the most overseas islands?
Aboriginal people.
This group of drow had fought against the natives more than once or twice, and basically the living environment in the overseas islands was a little better. Wherever the surrounding materials and food are more abundant, there will be large or small indigenous tribes. They have already mastered many ways to deal with the natives in this cruel living environment. After all, they are drow elves, and they are equally dangerous and evil creatures. Even if they gave up their belief in the Spider God Queen, there would still be a trace of cunning and cruelty in the nature of the drow!
"I know."
Dark Blade - Andri looked at the others. Slowly said: "But this Your Excellency wants to directly attack and destroy the indigenous tribes!"
One sentence caused an uproar.
The other drow warriors couldn't help but widen their eyes, and murmured: "Master Dark Blade, haven't you told your Excellency what's in the native tribe? Those spirits are quite difficult to deal with, and they don't have flesh and blood. When we encountered them and suffered heavy losses, it is basically impossible for these pirates in the camp to defeat the spirits. Unless there are quite powerful spellcasters!"
Drow races have also fought against native spirits.
But they undoubtedly failed, not only because their own strength is not enough, but also because the number of enemies is too large, without the power of wizards and priests, it is difficult to kill the spirit life in half-energy form with a group of powerful hand-to-hand fighters alone .
correct.
The spirit is immune to any non-supernatural weapon attack!
If it is a spirit with demigod ability. Then it is immune to the attacks of any extraordinary weapon below the third level. The immunity is not much different from that of a demilich, but it does not have the powerful physical damage reduction ability of a demilich. After all, a lich's body is a skeleton. Inside the entire camp. If you encounter a demigod spirit, except for Sauron's legendary scimitar, Ice Death. There is no longer any weapon that can hurt it. It is conceivable how passive this group of poorly equipped drow warriors were at that time, and they were almost one-sided in the face of spirits.
This is often the case.
It's as if you don't have dragon slaying equipment, sometimes you can't break the defense against dragons!
"I said that."
Dark Blade-Andrei looked at the others, and said in a deep voice: "But that Your Excellency's attitude is quite firm. And I don't dare to reject him obviously. After all, you know the current situation of the ethnic group. It is absolutely impossible to offend a pirate king." Not a wise choice! Fortunately, the indigenous tribes here are much weaker than the ones we encountered. The population is estimated to be only a little over a thousand. According to the customs of the indigenous people who participate in hunting as warriors, there should be only 300 people with combat power. about!"
Aboriginal warriors do not participate in farming or labor. Except for regular hunting and fighting, they are all supported by the lower-class aborigines.
The leader of the drow warriors looked at the others, and said slowly: "Your Excellency said that he is sure to deal with the spirits, so our mission is to help the pirates deal with those natives."
There was a brief silence.
A drow warrior who looked not young stood up, and said in a deep voice: "If your excellency can deal with spirits, we are not afraid of those natives. According to the calculation of time, we will almost reach the place where the antelopes and horned zebras migrate. It's time. This period is the hunting period for all the indigenous tribes. The source of meat next spring will depend on this hunting. So they should not attack for the time being. Maybe we can pick a good time to raid them. If we are lucky, the casualties will be reduced a lot of!"
The overseas islands are somewhat similar to Africa.
Many of the islands here are scattered, but there are also connected islands, because this was once a continental shelf. Creatures in the jungle also have the habit of migrating from north to south. When migrating, there will be quite a lot of herds, and sometimes you will encounter migrating elephant herds. This period is the hunting season for the indigenous tribes, and a large part of their meat for the coming year comes from here. Aborigines will dry the meat with sea salt, which can be kept for a long time, until the fishing season next autumn.
The fishing season is the migration of fish schools. Sturgeon, swordfish, striped fish, etc. will go to warm areas to breed every autumn, and then return to areas near the north in the spring of the next year. The population of fish during this period is quite spectacular, and you can see a large number of fish along the migration route of the fish with the naked eye. To put it simply, throwing a large net down can catch dozens of fat fish, and because fishermen don't hunt much, these fish are very clumsy and can be picked up with a harpoon.
In a way, the resources of the overseas archipelago are indeed very rich!
(Science [Geography]: Overall, the overseas islands are a long and narrow strip of island connections, the length of which reaches the scale of the continental shelf, but the width is less than one-tenth. The outermost edge of the Gulf Islands will extend all the way to the extreme north, and eventually Close to the great glacier that stretches for thousands of miles.)

the other side.
Sauron walked back and forth in the hall, then raised his head to look at the subordinates in front of him, and ordered: "Pay attention to those drow elves, and tell me immediately if there is any change."
"Yes." A scarred face left immediately.
Just as the drows still couldn't fully trust Sauron, Sauron didn't fully trust them either, because he had dealt with the drows not once or twice, and knew a lot about this kind of cunning intelligent creature. If you want to control the drow elves, you must either have power or interests, otherwise they will easily betray you.
Sauron closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then said, "Not a single female drow appeared, nor did I see any casters."
"Is this drow group that has declined like this, or have they still not decided to fully cooperate with me? If it is to lead them, the value will be greatly reduced. A drow group that has lost the caster's inheritance has no future. Yes. If it’s the latter, then they still feel repulsed internally, and they can cooperate only because they have no other choice!”
"You must have a strong force to completely tame them, right?"
This group of drow elves is very valuable, and Sauron's plan includes them, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Besides, the drow elves are naturally suitable for doing some shady things. The pirates may not be able to do many of Sauron's methods, but these drow elves can definitely do it.
He must hold this group of drow in his hands!
