Chapter 36 The Spirit of the Ancestors (1)
There was a crying scream in the indigenous tribe.
The elite pirates harvested heads with expressionless expressions and gave the injured but not dead a happy indigenous warriors. More than two thousand troops had occupied every corner of the indigenous tribe. Although there were still scattered sounds of fighting, they were quickly cleaned up. The entire tribe was covered with a strong smell of blood. The pirates were already used to it, but many of the half-elves had pale faces. These half-elves had not experienced many battles, and were far inferior to the pirates who had experienced many battles.
Sauron stood there and pondered for a long time.
After a moment, Scarfaced figure appeared in front of him and leaned over and said, "Old Master Soren! All the rebels have been cleaned up."
"Very good." Sauron turned around and looked at him, and said in a deep voice: "How are the casualties."
Scarface immediately replied: "Seventy or eighty people were killed and more than three hundred were injured. The subordinates have arranged for people to treat them."
The casualties are fine.
Soren nodded when he heard this. No matter how strong his personal strength is, the pirates under his command will inevitably suffer casualties. However, this level is still within the scope of his tolerance, but it affects his next plan.
“Everything goes according to plan!”
Sauron glanced at the indigenous slaves who were surrounded by them and said in a deep voice: "First, understand the nearby terrain and set up a cordon outside. There should be an indigenous tribe here. Be careful that they will attack us at night."
Scarface responded: "I understand."
The sacrifice just now was obviously indigenous people of different ethnic groups. The oil paints applied to the two sides were different, and they should belong to another tribe. Soren was not in a hurry to attack them, but was planning to stabilize the management here first. The indigenous tribe captured was quite large, with a population of nearly a thousand people. So many prisoners could not digest them in a short time. Soren was preparing to send all the dangerous ones to Modo City. Because the evil god who served died at Sauron's hands, many warriors in the indigenous tribe also gave up their resistance.
These warriors cannot stay here.
Because as long as they are given a little chance, they can use anything as a weapon, which can threaten the pirates under Sauron.
They had to be sent to Modo as coolies. They were too difficult to control and simply transported to the south coast as slaves. Many places like to use this fierce indigenous warrior as gladiators.
The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, and many indigenous people had gold and silver jewelry on their bodies, and they were stripped down directly.
The mines on Treasure Island are quite rich. However, because there is no trade deal, the indigenous people make gold into various simple decorations. The purpose of Salon came here was to further increase his wealth. Now he has more and more troops under his command, and now he can withstand it with trade support. If the Saint Catastrophe breaks out in the future, all trade will inevitably be severely damaged. At that time, most of the income from trade was lost, and raising these troops could only rely on Treasure Island's resources.
This is why Sauron so generously promised to help transport half-elves to avoid taxes for the next two or three years.
The reason is very simple.
The Saint Catastrophe lasted for more than two years!
It was not until the end of the turbulent period that the trauma was slowly recovering. Basically, all chambers of commerce could only make more money this year, and it would be difficult to trade if it was turned upside down.
All right.
Sometimes Sauron is really very similar to the devil because he did not break his promises, but just foresee in advance that future trade will not be so easy to do.
If anyone can make a fortune in turbulent times, that is their own ability!
Of course, merchants don’t know about this.
Recently, Modo City has accepted so many semi-elves and has a great demand for various supplies! On the one hand, they are busy transporting goods to Sauron and trying to get more favorable to the pirate king. On the other hand, they purchase supplies from various places to resell them. They strive to exempt the taxes for the next four or five years in one breath, and then create a flag given by the pirate king. In this way, they can walk sideways on the sea, and basically no one will come to provoke them without eyes.
Sauron's funds are flowing out significantly!
In addition to important materials such as grain, other things that can be hoarded are delivered to Moduo one by one. This money can be purchased in large quantities of material reserves now. By next year, I guess I can't buy much money.
War destroyed production.
Everything you prepare now is to deal with future changes.
……………………
soon.
One by one, the pieces of gold and silver were moved out of the houses of the indigenous people and nobles, and at first glance, there were a lot of golden lights shining.
"Pooh!"
Scar's face spitted, rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "I didn't expect these guys are really rich! Lord Sauron. Why don't we go and have another vote?"
Sauron glanced at him and shook his head slowly and said, "Don't be too hasty. The most important thing now is to escort the prisoners back."
“There are gold mines nearby.”
"Next, you will stay here to arrange for manpower to mine. I will let the giant stay. If there is anything, you can deal with it. Be careful of other indigenous people on this island, and never act carelessly!"
Scarface suffered a loss once on Viper Island, and nodded immediately and said, "I understand. Don't worry, please."
"I won't make the same mistake again."
Although the Giant is the least brain-free among many pirate leaders, his combat power is strong enough. Although he has not reached the legendary realm, the bloodline of the Mud Giant directly gives him the legendary level combat power. Soren sent him to Arundell to deal with the Viku Pirates, and his effect was quite good. He had a good relationship with Scarface. Staying here can shock other forces. In case of a battle, you don’t have to worry about not being able to defeat the enemy.
After all, many creatures on this island that are more legendary than can't get away too far!
The spirit is similar to the Earth-bound Spirit.
The day passed quickly, and the next day, Soren arranged for people to take some of the prisoners back. There was no need to leave too many people here. It was enough to mine up to a thousand gold mines. However, the power of garrison was still strong, because there were too many dangerous creatures on Treasure Island. There may be monsters on the route between Moto Island and Treasure Island. Soren is not planning to go back in person at present, but he will let the mutated killer whales go to escort. In the future, the mutated killer whales will be used as marine monsters entrenched here, and will include the nearest route into its territory, so that other marine monsters can be avoided from getting close to them.
In the sea, every ocean monster will not easily get involved in the territory of other monsters!
