Ayss Domination

Chapter 276: Traces of the Devil

Three thousand miles south of the Northland!

This is a loess high-sloping area. It was once a lush forest. However, as the human kingdom began to open up here, a large number of trees were cut down, so that serious soil erosion occurred.The consequences of this soil erosion directly caused the emergence of a Yellow River, but in this world it is not called the Yellow River, but the Nile Dona River.This is the language of the Ecinda people, the descendants of humans during the Arcane Empire, a race that can live to be over one hundred and twenty years old. The name means'turbid river'.

Seen from the south of the Nile Dona River, there are scattered villages and towns. These are the gathering places of human beings. They have been cutting down the trees here since 300 years ago, and now from the lost forest. Until the dark and dense forest area, the number of trees was reduced by at least one-third.These trees are just like the Han people in the Central Plains. For various reasons, they cut down the forests in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and completely caused soil erosion to be uncontrollable.

Regarding this matter, the Druids can be said to be quite dissatisfied!

The two sides also had violent conflicts because of this, but because there is no powerful Druid organization in this area, and there is another very special existence, it is still a result.However, human beings began to notice some problems after the soil erosion became more obvious, and a little bit converged on the past logging development.The sprout of industry was almost born here, but it was finally crushed by all forces at the beginning.

at this time.

Near the edge of the lost forest, a slender bodybuilding figure is advancing at high speed. She is wearing an exquisite leather armor and has a special emblem on her chest. Even the wind and dust cannot conceal her heroic spirit.This is a Silvermoon Walker. She seems to have been on the road for a long time. When she saw a thick smoke appearing in front of her, she couldn't help speeding up and rushed towards the place where the thick smoke was emitting.A village appeared in front of him, but it was a weird silence, and there was no sign of cock crowing, dog barking and human activities.

A loud eagle chirp sounded.

Immediately after that, an eagle flew down from the sky, and for a moment turned into a middle-aged druid with thick hair. He glanced at the Silver Moonwalker next to him, and said solemnly: "No one else nearby! I don’t know why the Moral Rui Council suddenly sent us here to investigate. Could something more important happen here?"

Silvermoon Walker's expression was serious, and he whispered: "Listen! There is no movement, there are almost no living people here!"

Two people marched towards the village.

The village in front of me was almost destroyed, there were burnt marks everywhere, and there were many dead bodies on the ground.Silvermoon Walker leaned over and looked at a few corpses, then his face solemnly said: "It was not the robbers! None of these people's belongings were taken away. It seems that the cause of their death is a bit strange!"

"Over there!" The middle-aged druid closed his eyes and felt it, and then quickly approached, pointing in a direction.

Silvermoon Walker quickly followed, and as they passed through a house that was burnt to ruins, everything in front of them made their faces pale.Because they saw a lot of corpses, men, women, children, women, children and children. There were many traces of firewood burning nearby. There was a corpse in the center that was almost burnt to charcoal. There were many messy footprints on the ground. It seemed that everything happened. Too many things have happened before.

"The Fallen?"

The middle-aged druid looked around, turned around and looked at the Silver Moon Walker, and asked, "Or other evils?"

Silvermoon Walker had a serious expression. She picked up a small piece of dark red skin that looked like fragments of skin from the ground and looked at it, and then condensedly said: "It's the devil!!!"

"go!"

"We must report to the parliament immediately. A devil is here."

"Damn it!"

"How did the devil of Barto's Purgatory escape?!"

………………

Eastern route.

The half-elf first officer stretched out his tongue and licked the blood on his arm. He was attacked and stabbed just now, but the injury was not serious. As a pirate, he was used to being injured.There were men bandaging him nearby, and some fierce pirates were kicking and beating the captives who had surrendered, mainly some uncombatable crew members.

"How about casualties?"

The half-elf first officer let the bandage be tied directly to a dead knot, and then stood up and said: "How many dead? How many injured? Have all the enemies cleaned up?"

A savvy pirate ran over and bowed his head and said, "Your mate. Thirty-two died and about fifty or sixty people were injured. All the rebelling enemies were killed, and there were still people under the cabin. I wanted to resist, but we also killed it. Everything was sealed under the cabin. We know the rules of the Throat Sniper, and we guarantee that no one will steal it."

"Yeah." The half-elf first officer nodded slightly, and said with satisfaction: "Don't move the things below, you will naturally have your reward when you return to Port Tyrol."

He stood up and walked under the cabin where the slaves were carried.

Those belongings are nothing at all. Naturally, there are other ways to make money. What really makes him care about is the slave craftsmen escorted from the East. The task that Your Excellency Sauron explained is still the most important.The half-elf first officer quickly brought his hands to the bottom of the cabin. Most of the slaves held in it were characteristic of the Eastern race. They looked a bit like a race in the desert, but the skin was a little yellower and the outline was not like here. The unevenness of the race is distinct, and the lines on the face are softer.

"Who are skilled craftsmen?"

The half-elf first officer looked at the fifty or sixty slaves in front of him. The Eastern Route Trade would not transport those cheap goods, so the quality of the slaves in front of them was relatively high.

A clever guy next to him hurried over and replied: "There are more than 30 skilled craftsmen here, and all of the more than a dozen things over there are Eastern Gladiators who have been shipped over. They will be sent to the City of Fortune and sold to In the underground arena along the south coast, these slaves are all very valuable."

Gladiator?

There was a look of interest on the half-elf first officer's face. He walked up to an Eastern gladiator and looked at the strong man in front of him. The muscles of this man are not very strong, unlike many warriors here. But his muscle lines have a sense of strength and smoothness. Legend has it that Eastern Gladiators are more agile, and some have also received Eastern monks training. It seems that the rumors are true.[Note: Many Eastern fighters have a monk level of one or two part-time jobs, and their training methods are in the tradition of monks.

"Take it all back."

The half-elf first officer glanced at the shackles on the opponent's hand, and said: "These people seem to be a little useful. Your Excellency the Throat Slasher is just when you need manpower, maybe you can use them."

"what?"

He glanced at the innermost part of the cabin, then cautiously walked over and asked: "What is in the cage over there? Why is there no sound at all? Is it empty?"

Someone nearby immediately brought the torch.

As the light shone, the creatures in the dark cage also appeared in front of them. Many people couldn't help but wonder, and then someone suddenly realized: "This is? This is the beast of the East. ?"

What appeared before them was a little girl.

A very small girl who is at most six or seven years old, she is wearing a broken lace dress, and her small face is a little bit cheeky, but she can see big eyes and fair skin.This is not the most amazing point. What is even more amazing are her ears, which are fluffy cat-like ears and a small cat tail sticking out of her ass.

"Beastization?"

The half-elf first officer couldn't help but looked at it in surprise, and then murmured: "It seems to be the legendary catwoman? I thought this kind of lycanthrope was extinct! Unexpectedly, there could be one in the East!"

Bah!

Facing a group of hideous pirates, the little girl in front of her seemed a little scared, but the courage in her heart caused her to bark her teeth at these people, revealing a pair of obvious tiger teeth, which seemed to be somewhat Wild and untamed appearance.The lycanthrope has been greatly reduced since the period of the Arcane Empire, and it is now very rare.The specific reason for their appearance is hard to say, anyway, the legend is related to something taboo.

After all, the great arcanists always wanted to encroach on the realm of the gods, including the part that created life.

The half-elf first officer looked curiously, and then ordered to the left and right: "Don't hurt her, this catwoman looks very rare, take it back and give it to the lady as a gift."

The eldest lady in his mouth.

Naturally, it refers to Vivienne, but in fact, it mainly refers to Lilian, because only Lilian occasionally turns the groups they command around.

Now in Sauron's core staff, who didn't know that Vivian was the baby bump in Sauron's heart.

Not to mention Vivienne's own strength is also a little unfathomable to them!

………………

The half-elf first officer walked out quickly.

There are already several people waiting outside. One of them looks a bit gentle with single-frame glasses, not like a pirate but a middle-aged man who is more like the shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce, walked over, and bowed his head slightly: "Your Excellency. On the three ships. The goods have been counted. There are a total of 26 boxes of porcelain, 21 boxes of tea bricks, about 12 boxes of other pepper spices, etc., and some rare silk fabrics. The total value may exceed 50,000 gold Dele, if it can be sold to those local nobles, the value is estimated to increase by 50%!"

Heard these words.

The half-elf first officer couldn't help but was stunned, and then murmured: "So much!? So valuable?!"

He feels something is wrong.

Because the things carried on these three ships seem to be of high value!And they are also the most expensive and most valuable cargo on the Eastern route!
