Ayss Domination

Sauron left after making complete preparations this time.

Before leaving, he drew the blueprint for the further planning of the overseas islands. According to his initial layout, the upper limit of the population of Modo City is about 50,000, which is already a big city in the current era.The port part is still left to the Fortune Church and the Ocean Church to operate. Sauron pays more attention to the land, and his future focus is also on the land. When his strength has accumulated to a certain level, he may directly move to Treasure Island, where the wealth is easy enough. Substitute for overseas trade.

After all, no matter how lucrative the trade is, it cannot be compared to mining gold by oneself. In the future, it is quite difficult to transform from a pirate to a higher class without a gold mine behind it.

[Remarks: The Treasure Island was mentioned in the previous article. The overseas archipelago has rich mineral resources.

………………

Traveling alone is much more convenient.

Sauron directly drove the ghost ship Dead Whisperer to set off, and arrived at the Shipwreck Bay along the overseas route. There was no need to supply supplies on the road. After a little inspection of the slave black market overseas, he went to the north.

Northland is located to the northwest of the mainland.

The Snow Nation is located in the northernmost position, so Sauron's voyage route this time is quite long. To gather the other three elemental spars, he needs to travel half of the entire continent.From the south to the north, from the north to the east, and finally across the desert of death into the dark region, because the last elemental spar is somewhere in the dark region.

A place where you may encounter beholders.

Back in the Northland again, Sauron's mood was quite different. He landed from the deep-water port and left the ghost ship Dead Whisperer in the nearby sea.

The port is still so bustling and lively.

However, among the hustle and bustle of the crowd, there were many more people wearing weapons, even some half-old children, with a dagger hidden around their waist.

Sauron frowned slightly.

He walked outside along the road, and when he approached the gate of Deepwater Port, he saw many wanted warrants.

There are humans, there are dwarves, and there are lizardmen.

The security here seems to have deteriorated a lot from the last time I came here. There are dozens of wanted orders, large and small, on a sign. The guards in charge of patrols are also much more nervous than before, and they seem to be lazy in the past.The location of the Adventurer's Guild is more lively than before, and there are even bulletin boards outside with many tasks written in bright red letters.

For example, these pieces in front of me.

——"One hundred miles south of Deepwater Port, Gushu Town was attacked by Dark Scale Lizardmen. The number of enemies was small, and the level of danger was C. The reward for the mission was 1,200 Kindlers. Emergency missions, there will be extra after completion Reward."

——"There are ogres running around in the town of Faqna. Recently, people have disappeared one after another. The mayor wants to ask someone to investigate this matter and determine the number and traces of the ogres. The task is rewarded with 300 Kindler. , There are additional rewards for assisting the town guards to kill the ogres."

——"Deepwater Port found a strange fog in the nearby waters yesterday. A merchant ship sailor said that he had seen ghost ships. This task is a special task. Anyone who has a clue can get rewards. The difficulty level of the task is B."

………………

It may be because the timeline is getting closer and closer to the turbulent period, and the adventurers' guild has released a lot more missions than in the past.

But what made Sauron a little bit dumbfounded was that there were more than a dozen bulletin boards erected outside, with missions ranging from F to C. The only mission with B difficulty was to investigate the strange fog that appeared yesterday in Deepwater Port.Needless to say, it must be because of Sauron's arrival, because he activated the Death Whisperer's ability to summon the fog before he approached the vicinity, and unexpectedly, he was seen by a nearby sailor.That's why we have today's special investigation task of B grade difficulty.

It's surprising to think about it.

Sauron also accepted missions from the Adventurer's Guild, but he did not expect that after experiencing so much, he would one day become a difficult investigation mission.

There is a assembled team outside the city gate.

Before he left the town, Sauron saw the militiamen who were training, most of them were adult men, and many of them were 15 or 16-year-old children.In previous years, militia training would not be conducted in March, which is the busy period of farming. The training is also the period of slack after the harvest of wheat.Therefore, a caring person can guess that there is a security problem nearby by just looking at this situation.For emergency training of militias, something must have happened nearby. Otherwise, how could there be that time when the spring wheat was planted.

Sauron did not stay here.

In fact, he was already mentally prepared for the arrival of chaos. A catastrophe was far more than what he saw before his eyes. When the real chaos came, it was the real disaster.

If there is nothing unexpected.

Sauron should arrive in the Snow Country tomorrow, but just after he left Deepwater Harbor, a little accident happened.

He saw a pile of dead bodies.

Strictly speaking, it was a pile of corpses that had been dead for a while, and the corpses had basically begun to decay. The reason Sauron was alarmed was the stench emanating from here.

Corpses are not uncommon in this era.

If it was just a corpse, Sauron wouldn't care at all.

However, these corpses had an obvious feature, but Sauron couldn't help but stop, and all their eyeballs were dug out.

Strictly speaking, it should have been taken out!

With bloody eye sockets, the eyeballs of all the corpses were taken out. There were signs of fighting on their bodies. From the marks of struggle in some places, some people even had their eyeballs gouged out while they were alive. His throat was cut by the enemy.

Very familiar killing technique!

Sauron glanced at the corpses and couldn't help muttering: "The Eyeless!? Has this group of people appeared?"

No eyes.

A Cthulhu Church that is not very powerful but not too weak.

They believe in an evil god without eyeballs. These people like to dig out their eyes after defeating the enemy, or use a killing sacrifice to sacrifice to the evil god they believe in, and finally dig out the eyeballs of the killed person as a sacrifice. Product.The reason Sauron knew them was very simple. He had accepted the task of investigating another Cthulhu Church.

That Cthulhu Church is called the "Blind".

There are certain similarities between the two depraved evil organizations. Sauron encountered blind cultists while investigating the blind.

"Success! Evil ones!"

Just after Sauron looked at these corpses, he pondered for a moment and was about to leave, suddenly a magical light appeared that made him extremely uncomfortable, and then the paladin's signature spell'Detect Evil' fell on him.

It seems to have triggered a landmine!

Sauron’s body exploded with an extremely strong blood-red light in an instant. As the most powerful pirate king in charge of the South Coast, Sauron now says that his hands are full of blood. Although he brought it to the South Coast The order has made the lives of ordinary businessmen much more stable.But it cannot be denied that he controls the black market trade, the slave trade, and squeezes the protection money of other merchants.Therefore, no matter from which angle, the evil aura on Sauron is very strong!

There is only one type of person in this world who throws'detecting evil' on others without asking.

That is the paladin!

A trace of murderous aura appeared on Sauron. If there was any behavior in this world that made him most offensive, then there is no doubt that the paladins who littered the'detecting evil' would definitely rank in the top three.

So at this moment he has an urge to kill!

But what he didn't expect was that the paladin in front of him was the first to shout out "Success to death".

It was a young handsome man.

He looked like an aristocratic child, because he was wearing a gorgeous full-body armor. After he threw a "detect evil" on Sauron, he had a righteous expression on his face, and he swung his sword directly to cut it over.This paladin didn't have much combat experience at first glance. Before the distance between the two of them was close, he had already started to speed up the sprint, and Sauron could even catch his attack by closing his eyes.

This is a rookie with little experience!

It is estimated that the occupation level is around the third level, and it is no accident that the occupation level is around 12.

Judging from the color of the magical aura, Sauron had no intention to belong to the kind of heinous person!Therefore, after seeing such a strong blood-red light, the paladin did not hesitate to launch an attack. In his opinion, Sauron was the kind of criminal who could be judged directly!

"Don't be impulsive!"

"come back!"

"You are crazy! Don't throw around to detect evil!"

A female voice came from behind the young paladin, and there were two or three mixed voices. It seemed that this was a team of adventurers.

The paladin seems to have taken over the duties of the fighter.

They looked like a team of adventurers who had accepted a certain task, and the paladin walking in the front, after seeing the pile of corpses and Sauron standing next to him, the first reaction was not to ask, but It is thrown out to detect evil.

Damn it!

With a clanging sound, Sauron instantly pulled out a scimitar and died of ice, and then a series of simulated monks rushed forward at a high speed. After swinging the knife stand to open the paladin's attack, he slashed at his head!

"No!"

An exclamation sounded.

Three figures rushed out from the side of the woods. Among them, there was a female voice that made Sauron feel familiar, and there were very few people who could make him feel familiar. So after hesitating for a while, he twisted the knife backhand and replaced the blade with The back of the knife.

clang!

thump.

The young paladin was knocked out and fell to the ground like a head.

Sauron turned and looked at the four adventurers who approached him, his eyes swept a little among them, and he immediately found a figure he was familiar with.

An Yali.

The girl priest who helped them in Amber City!
