Chapter 151 The Storm

The peaceful day passed like this.

As March approaches in the overseas islands, the season of storms is gradually approaching.

The second day after Sauron came back, there was a heavy rain here. Although there is no way to count the amount of rainfall, it did rain heavily, and many houses had slight water leaks. This is also something that can’t be helped. The level of craftsmanship in this era is limited, and there will be losses in the event of heavy wind and heavy rain. This is because Sauron has long been prepared for the climate of the overseas archipelago. Otherwise, if it is replaced with a thatched-roof house on the mainland, it may be torn down directly.

Crackling rain fell.

Even though Sauron has planned the drainage canals in advance, he can also emphasize repairing the roads. In the end, the water was still slightly swollen. Because the ditch had just been dug out, the depth was not enough and the drainage was too low. At the same time, the road was a little potholed because of the heavy rain. The stone paved road is better, but any road with dirt is now completely muddy, basically it is impossible for cars and horses to pass. Because of the torrential rain, the slaves were unable to work, and now they are all detained, and guards are sent to slow down the epidemic.

The aborigines were better. Some of the slaves from the mainland who had just been brought here were vomiting and diarrhea. Fortunately, a doctor came with them and there were no casualties.

Not having a priest is a problem after all!

The climate of the overseas archipelago is harsh, and there are more stormy seasons. At the same time, because it belongs to the belief area of ​​the Lord of Storms, the storms here are often accompanied by thunderstorms!

For example now.

Lightning bolts streaked across the sky, and fell in the tropical rainforest in the distance from time to time, it looked as if someone was going through a catastrophe!

It rains all day long.

If it is a wooden house, it is estimated that the inside is already wet.

However, Sauron has already built many brick and tile houses. From this point of view, it is more suitable for the climate of the overseas islands. At the same time, the ability to resist storms is also stronger.

Because of the heavy rain, the whole camp was quiet.

The pirates hid in their houses to avoid the rain. The three taverns were already overcrowded, and the outside was so dark that they couldn't see clearly from five meters away.

"The climate here! . . . "

Gloria looked up at the sky and stood beside Sauron. Stretching out his hand to hold his palm, he said slowly: "I'm afraid it's not so suitable for farming. If such weather often occurs, it may be difficult for the seeds to survive."

Sauron nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "I know."

"Fortunately, no seeds have been planted this time, or I'm afraid it will be washed away. There are too many things that need to be built here, ditches for drainage and irrigation, and embankments for flood control. These all require a lot of labor, and now it can only be done in one step. One step has come. This kind of climate is not impossible to change, and I will prepare for the sea god sacrifice in two days."

Gloria frowned slightly when she heard the words, and said slowly, "Are you using the power of the gods?"

"The price of asking the gods for help is not small! It's a pity that I haven't advanced to legend. Otherwise, I can use the power of the wizard tower and magic circle to forcibly reverse the climate in the nearby area."

Sauron turned around and glanced at her, stretched out his hand to take Gloria's delicate body into his arms, and said in a deep voice, "There's no need to do that."

"The consumption is too great!"

"Unless there is a wizard tower to maintain energy consumption. Although there is no problem with forcibly reversing the weather for the time being, there will still be side effects in the future."

"Nature is mysterious!"

"Unless it is a force that can change the world. Otherwise, it is best to follow the trend."

Gloria couldn't understand Sauron's words. She could understand these words separately, but even she felt a little strange together. But she is a wise witch after all, and she roughly understands what Sauron means.

She nodded slightly. Leaning his head on Sauron's shoulder, he said slowly: "You can use the power of the gods in a short period of time, but you will become dependent for a long time, which is not conducive to your rule here, and the influence of the gods will be higher than yours. prestige."

Sauron took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I know."

"Just make it through this time."

Rumble!

A bolt of lightning fell, and the lightning was like a dragon and snake dancing.

Sauron stood under the eaves and stared at the sky, his eyes seemed to see more things through the space.

That was the realm of the gods, and there was the power he needed.

………………

A torrential rain lasted for three days before it stopped.

Sauron's camp was somewhat flooded. Although this was a bit of a headache, it also exposed some shortcomings in the construction plan. After the rainstorm stopped, he quickly mobilized manpower to repair, and at the same time repaired all the damaged roads and houses. After the rainstorm, there is a clear sky, and it seems that there will be no storms in a short period of time. From the climate point of view, farming here requires a bit of character and good weather, but the power can change the climate and sky to a certain extent.

The busy morning passed quickly.

After being inseparable from the beginning, Sauron and Gloria also returned to their usual work and rest habits.

Sauron was busy setting up the camp, while exercising spell mastery [Spellcasting Skill], training combat skills in the afternoon, and the drow and Adele were his partners. Gloria usually conducts research in the house, and occasionally goes out for a walk. Recently, those man-eating plants have attracted her attention a little bit, but she quickly turned to the research on the shadow plane. Gloria hopes to establish a portal and use the gap in the shadow plane to stabilize the connection between the two worlds.

So that they can return to the material plane at any time and close the portal if they encounter a sudden situation while exploring the wizard tower.

This is the safest way!

In addition, they maintain a frequency of once every three days, enjoying each other's two-person time.

Neither Sauron nor Gloria are the kind of people who are easily indulged in lust. They have pursuits that are higher than the physical body, which is a realm that transcends the mundane world.

Probably because of Gloria's presence, the evil spirit on Sauron's body was much lighter than before.

This made many pirates feel grateful to this lord witch. You must know that Sauron in the past was definitely a murderous existence, with cruel and bloody methods, and the pirates under his command would always fear him more than respect him. Now there are fewer cases of Sauron killing people. Even if some of his subordinates make mistakes, most of them are just whipped.

It's better to get whipped than to lose your head!

………………

The slave gets busy.

The camp needs to be developed and there are still many things to do. It is really not easy to start everything from scratch.

Sometimes even Sauron gets tired.

But everything is worth it, because the foundation has been laid here, and even the drow elves, after seeing the growth of this place with their own eyes, gradually have a little more sense of identity.

There are even drow warriors who have suggested that the group move here.

It is safer, more comfortable, and more convenient here, with abundant food, excellent equipment, and various daily necessities.

but.

Because there are still some people in the drow who worry that Sauron will turn from cooperation to annexation and completely eat the entire drow group, so the female drow in the group are quite opposed to this.

Sauron was not in a hurry.

He was going to leave these to time. If they didn't understand when the time came, then don't blame Sauron for using some cruel methods.

A large wasteland has been reclaimed to the south of the camp.

However, the seeds have not been planted yet, and it is estimated that they will wait until around March. Burning bricks and building houses is still in full swing. Sauron's preliminary plan has nearly 500 houses, which is enough to house all his subordinates, and even a small number of slaves are considered. The wizard Saruman has already begun to study how to turn the struvite into high-quality fertilizer, and it is estimated that there will be results in about a month. At that time, the arable land will be planted, and the slaves brought from the mainland will be able to master deep plowing operations.

Here farming must be done with precision farming.

Recently, Sauron learned from his subordinates that Saruman was very interested in those man-eating plants, which aroused his curiosity.

Fortunately, Saruman didn't delay the business, and Sauron didn't ask too much.

afternoon.

Sauron was exercising his white crow swordsmanship on the training ground. Just as he finished fighting Adele, the shouts of slaves and pirates suddenly came from afar.

boom!

Sauron seemed to hear something, and the figure immediately flew out of the air, and then rushed towards the cultivated land.

One after another, vigorous figures rose from the ground.

The pirate leaders under Sauron ran out one after another, jumped up and landed on the roof one by one, and then quickly approached the farmland.

A vigorous and growing force has already given them a sense of belonging.

Nearly ten pirate leaders around the fourth level quickly approached, and then jumped over the fence one after another, rushing to the reclaimed land. The one rushing to the front was naturally Sauron. As his figure gradually approached, he immediately saw two huge bipedal pterosaurs in front of him. Flapping their dragon wings, they swooped down from the sky, and their huge dragon claws pierced through the two indigenous slaves in an instant. In the screams of dying, the bipedal dragon grabbed the prey like an eagle, and then moved towards Fly away.

"court death!"

Sauron's face was gloomy, and when he saw the bipedal pterosaur hunting and killing his own slave right in front of his eyes, a trace of anger and murderous aura rose in his heart immediately.

Wordy!

Suo Suo Suo!

The elven warbow appeared in the palm of Sauron. After the distance was within the range, he shot a series of arrows, most of which hit the bipedal dragon, but most of them hit the dragon's wing and missed the enemy's body. The key.

The bipedal pterosaur let out a wail, and its figure shook slightly, but it still flew farther and farther.

"Want to run?!"

Sauron chanted the spell expressionlessly, and his figure rose into the air.

——"Fly!"

His figure flew into the sky, and at the same time, he put an arrow on the bow again in an instant, aiming at the belly of the bipedal dragon!
