Ayss Domination
Chapter 616: Eventful Autumn
White Horse City.
It took Sauron less than a day to travel from Amber City to White Horse City again.
This once prosperous trading route has been completely abandoned. The city of Fallen Leaf was broken due to the attack of the half-orcs, and the handicrafts from the elven kingdom and half-elves have completely lost their sales.The road in White Horse City was blocked by the ancient red dragon, and the impact of the double blow on this area was quite terrifying.In particular, the chaos formed after the migration of various monsters has led to the migration of many villages and towns with insufficient defense capabilities.
Although human beings have a huge number, they do not occupy an absolute advantage in nature.
The current productivity simply cannot support the population explosion. Human villages can only be formed near suitable arable land, because in those wilderness areas that are not suitable for reclamation, there are still many other species.Grain is the key to restricting the proliferation of any organism. With the transportation capacity of this era, most of the food can only rely on self-produced, and the proportion of loss due to external transportation alone is quite large, and it may be attacked by other species.
Unless there is a huge force that has completed a vast project similar to water transportation.
So far.
This possibility is almost impossible, so Sauron saw many deserted villages along the way. The migration of these villages was largely due to frequent attacks by wild animals. The decrease in population and the increase in danger made them unable to farm at ease. .Without sufficient self-protection strength, many small and medium-sized villages and towns began to move or merge.
Jinxi Town.
This is a town that has risen rapidly during turbulent times.
Sauron passed this town on the way to White Horse City. He and Vivian had been to this town when he followed Golia's caravan.
And, here he also met the Juggernaut for the first time.
Today’s Jinxi Town has tripled in size, with a reinforced thick wooden wall outside, and the population has increased several times at least. It seems that there is already a small city outline.
All these changes are due to external pressure, and the threat of wild animals has caused other nearby villages and towns to migrate here, and a large number of humans have begun to gather together to build fortifications to form an army to protect civilians.Jinxi Town originally had a strong geographical position and manpower. Under such circumstances, it immediately became the most important human gathering place nearby.
Sauron stopped here for a while.
Two guard towers were erected in front of the heavy Zhaimen, and there were defensive guards on the wall. Even Sauron saw the figure of rangers, who were responsible for detecting the movement of wild animals.
The defense here is heavily guarded, with the proportion of militias reaching one-fifth.
Sauron saw several barracks that were training militias, which made him faintly feel the atmosphere of war, the blacksmith shop was busy, and the weapons forged by the military were full of shelves.I am afraid that this scenario is not only to prevent attacks by wild animals, I am afraid that the rulers here have plans to recover lost land.No creature is willing to give up land easily. Human migration is forced to helpless. When they regroup, they naturally want to take back those lands.
A sharp look.
Sauron suddenly felt that someone was watching him. When he turned around, he was surprised to see a young man who was a little familiar.
A swordsman.
A high-level swordsman with a straight-bladed knife and a simple cloth on his back with blood stains on his body.
The person Sauron had seen.
The aura on his body has become more and more fierce, the whole person is like a sharp sword with exposed edges, and the murderous intent on the opponent's body is very heavy. I am afraid this is related to the current monster's rampant environment.
The Sword Saint greeted Sauron's gaze for a moment, as if feeling his strength somewhat, he nodded slightly and left.
A high-level hunter.
This is his judgment and the ability that Sauron has shown.
Many Juggernauts are relatively taciturn people, sometimes they would rather use swords to express themselves, and are unwilling to talk too much nonsense.
Sauron noticed the respect people looked at him.
It seems that this young Juggernaut has used his strength to gain people’s respect and recognition during this period of time. Juggernaut is an advanced profession that attaches great importance to actual combat. The opponent has entered the ranks of high-level professionals at this age. If you don't get distracted, a legendary swordsman might be born in Jinxi Town in the future.
It is very likely that this town will become more prosperous because of him!
Sauron didn't stay for long. He quickly left the town and continued to Whitehorse City. The road had been abandoned a lot, and there were weeds everywhere.
After traveling about twenty kilometers.
A sign appeared in Sauron's sight, and it said something like this-"Beware of danger! There are diggers here!!! (skeleton mark)..."
Digger?!
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Sauron's mouth, and then he continued on the road. After walking about five kilometers, he found traces of other people on the ground, as if coming from another road.
"Be careful!"
"Another one came out behind you!"
A middle-aged man's exclamation sounded in his ears, and then there was a chaotic battle. There seemed to be a lot of people who heard the voices. Sauron also heard the somewhat familiar sound of the digger.
Druid!
Sauron's figure rose into the sky, leaping into the air between the trunks, pulling out afterimages in an instant. He quickly saw the target, but the most eye-catching one was a druid, which now looks like a black bear, but What he said with his mouth open was very authentic Elvish.
Wild Druid.
They are the shapeshifters in the druids. They are proficient in all kinds of'transfiguration techniques', and they often rely on transformation to complete their combat methods.
A priest.
Wearing a slightly worn-out priest's robe with scars on his face, he was fighting with a priest's staff in his hand.Sauron saw a special emblem on him, on which were the pale hands bound by the red string. This was the priest of the [God of Suffering], a priest who mastered [Endurance], [Suffering] and [Martyrdom]. And Perseverancethe gods of the priesthood.This is a lawful and kind god. He is also known as the "Weeping God." His followers include the disabled, the oppressed, the poor, the monks, paladins, slaves and serfs, etc.
The reason Sauron is so familiar with this god is because he has carefully recalled the other party's information recently.
[God of Suffering]-Irmat!
He protects the victims, and the [God of Hunting]-Mara, who loves bloody hunting, is one of the important enemies of this god.
There are many diggers.
In front of Sauron, besides the professionals who could fight, there were also a lot of civilians. These civilians completely relied on them to block, so they were not eaten up by the digger.
The strongest combatant in the crowd is a monk.
It is not an oriental monk, but a local monk trained after training. [God of Suffering]-There is an independent monk group in the church of Irmat.The name of this monk group is [the Broken Ones]. It is a monk group that believes in the crying god. In addition to protecting all believers and temples, the members of the group are also responsible for punishing those who brutally hurt others
Evil.These monks can be part-time priests, and can also be advanced occult believers, saints, power believers, power seekers, and saints, without being punished for leaving their profession.
This is the product of the fusion of the power of the gods and the training of the monk, and the monk of the broken one is a very powerful advanced professional.
The battle became more intense.
But the situation hasn't collapsed yet, because the priests of the "God of Suffering" are very good at healing, which is related to their teachings.
Although many people misunderstand the doctrine of the Weeping God (and even ridicule his doctrine), the church of Irmat has many faithful followers across the continent.In this cruel world, many victims, patients, and poor people rely on the aid of the Irmat Church to survive.People in many areas respect the Church of the Weeping God, and his pastors often receive generous assistance when they practice free medicine everywhere.
The middle-aged pastor in front of him.
It is the few members of the cult in the current material plane who will provide treatment to others completely free of charge, and the target of this treatment is no matter whether it is the poor, commoners, slaves, or serfs, etc.The priests of the [God of Suffering] are not very common. They are too active in their diocese. Because of the'conversion ritual' guided before death, the healing power of all the priests of the crying god is 1.5 times that of other priests the above.
