A fishy sea breeze blew in his face.
Søren walked across the deck with the petite Vivian in his arms. Beside him were other people who were slightly surprised because a young man holding a sleeping little girl was undoubtedly very eye-catching. The scarlet cloak was quite eye-catching. Two people with unkind faces looked at each other and seemed to be plotting something. But then a strong man came over, reached out and patted them on the shoulder, and said in a cold voice, "Don't think about them. A man dares to bring a little girl here like this. He's not someone you guys can deal with!"
This was Port Tylon, a transit station to the Soros Islands.
From time to time, there were voices of discussion behind them. Some were guessing the identity of Søren, and some were talking about the news from the City of Wealth. It was said that a very serious event had happened there. One-third of the City of Wealth had been destroyed, and at least thousands of people had died. Many ships that had originally planned to go to the City of Wealth had docked at other ports, ready to leave after unloading their goods. Because of the legend of an evil false god, many churches were now hostile to them. The City of Wealth was now a place of dispute.
The ascension of the Demigod Vampire had undoubtedly attracted most of the attention!
Whether it was the local churches that hated the Son of Fear, the believers of Fear who were secretly manipulating them, or the Sons of Fear scattered around the world, almost all eyes were attracted to him. The churches wanted to defeat him, the believers of Fear wanted to regain their power, and the other Sons of Fear, whether to protect themselves or to become stronger, the Demigod Vampire was a hurdle that they could not get around. It was even possible that other Sons of Fear would be forced to unite.
Because he was too strong!
After the Demigod Vampire became a false god, he was in the form of a Saint, and he could almost easily suppress any Son of Fear.
The other party had drawn a lot of hatred!
Søren was sure that before the Demigod Vampire fell, he and Vivian would be very safe. In fact, he even hoped that the Demigod Vampire could hold on for a while, because as long as he did not fall, no one would be bored enough to pay attention to the little Vivian and the inconspicuous Son of Slaughter. Even the believers of Fear did not have the energy to pay attention to them, because as long as the Demigod Vampire existed, the power of the Lord of Fear would decline. He was stealing the divine power and priesthood of the Lord of Fear.
Because he also had the Fear Domain.
Soran would be an idiot if he didn't find a chance to grow stronger now that the other party's aggro was almost all gone.
…
Port Tylon.
Søren carried Vivian down the merchant ship. They couldn't depart from the inland port to the outer islands because it was easy to encounter some annoying creatures. Port Tylon was a transit station. There were big ships going to the tropical rainforest. After passing through the territory of the Amazons, it was a primitive and wild land. There were many valiant aborigines there, and cannibal tribes were scattered all around. Other than the crazy pioneers, not many people went there. Especially after some of the gold mines had been mined out, there were even fewer pioneers heading to the outer islands.
In fact, there were still many gold mines!
Søren didn't know much, but he did know that there was a treasure island in the outer islands.
This place was only discovered many years later. Currently, it was controlled by a group of powerful cannibal tribes. Perhaps due to geographical reasons, the mineral resources in the outer islands were more densely distributed and easier to mine. However, there were too many aborigines scattered in these places. Among them, there were totem spirits that they believed in. Even a legendary wizard would have difficulty dealing with a large tribe. Moreover, legendary professions didn't need to make a fortune from this, so the minerals in the outer islands were probably only about one-tenth of them.
This was how the maritime trade developed.
Although the level of civilization of the aborigines was not high, there was a lot of foreign trade. Even if a large ship of food was brought over, it could be sold at more than three times the price. And Søren also remembered that the exchange ratio of gold and silver on the mainland was 10: 1. In many places in the outer islands, the ratio of gold and silver was 6: 1. Because the proportion of gold was larger, the silver coins in the outer islands were far more valuable than on the mainland. Just the exchange of gold and silver was a large profit.
Therefore, there were very developed trade routes and a large number of pirate groups!
One of the major forces was the Amazons.
Søren set foot on the land of port Tylon with the sleeping Vivian in his arms. It was an island about 30 kilometers in diameter. There was a small town inside, which had been controlled by other forces for many years. He vaguely heard crying and begging for mercy coming from the front. There were sturdy sailors nearby who were looking at them with a smile. Søren was not in the mood to see what was going on. However, when he walked over, he still saw a young man whose fingers had been chopped off and three bloody fingers on the ground.
This was a thief.
Here, stealing was not a crime if it was not discovered. But if it was discovered, the owner could deal with the thief himself. Even if he used lynching, no guards would care. There were guards wearing half-body armor next to him, but they just looked at him with cold eyes. There were crowds of onlookers around, and some of his companions who didn't look good. They didn't intend to help. Because if you were caught stealing here, you would have to admit defeat. You would have to cut off your fingers or even your palm.
However, it was not allowed to kill a thief casually. If you used lynching to kill a thief, the guards had the right to fine you.
"You're lucky today!"
A burly man with a valiant face kicked the young man who was rolling on the ground and screaming miserably. He then spat out a mouthful of saliva, weighed his money pouch, and said in a deep voice, "If you want to get rich, go find One-eyed Jack. Rely on your own strength to earn money on the edge of the blade! Next time, you may not be so lucky. If it was someone else, your arm would have been cut off today! "
The surrounding sailors only looked on with smiles on their faces as if they were watching a good show. No one would sympathize with them.
Søren didn't even look over there and walked over with an indifferent expression. Port Tylon was a little noisy. There were noises everywhere. During the day, there were prostitutes standing on the street to solicit customers. Sometimes, they would go directly into the alley to start the prostitution business. The ground here was quite dirty, and there was a strong fishy smell. The people here all had bad breath because there were many sailors here, and at the same time, there were also pirates. No matter if it was overall or in all aspects, it was much more chaotic than the mainland.
There were many taverns in Port Tylon.
There was one next to the inn that Søren found. There were sounds of fighting coming from inside. Occasionally, there were guards patrolling, but they didn't seem to care. Nearby, there were big men with their arms crossed in front of their chests. From time to time, there were roars of laughter, shouting obscenities like kicking his balls. The tavern owner wiped the table in front of the bar calmly. Occasionally, he would look up. Perhaps he had seen too much, so his expression didn't change.
The winner of the tavern fight was another group of people, led by a strong and muscular woman.
She laughed and lifted a man, then threw him out of the tavern with a shoulder throw. At this time, the owner looked up and gave a look to the thug next to him. Here, no matter who started first, no matter who was right or wrong, as long as something was broken, the tables and chairs in the tavern would be compensated by the person who lost. Unless it was an unreasonable thing, or a malicious fight that was too obvious, the tavern owner and the thugs would not interfere.
It was normal to fight because of a quarrel here. As long as no one died, everyone would just watch the fun. The guards passing by were not interested in interfering.
The thug threw the guy who lost out and took out the money bag. The other people who were watching the fun quickly quieted down. However, there were quite a few people who looked at the strong and muscular woman with interest. Many of them even wanted to buy her a drink. This was a female warrior of the Amazon. This kind of woman was full of wildness and was more attractive to them than many women. The guy who was knocked out was quickly robbed by the second wave of looting. Some sneaky young men stripped him of all his valuables, leaving only a thin pair of underwear.
Then he was thrown into the alley, and almost no one cared about him anymore.
Søren was quite used to this place.
The chaos in front of him was nothing at all. If there was a murder in the Underdark, as long as no one saw it and no clues were left, it was not a murder. Almost no one would care about it. The chaos here was just child's play. At least everyone was quite restrained and would not easily kill people. The managers here did not want too many deaths.
There were a large number of criminals in Port Tylon. As long as they were not wanted, recognized, and reported, they were legal civilians.
So there were a lot of pirates here!
This was a port second only to the City of Wealth for selling stolen goods. Because of the incident in the City of Wealth, this place was much more prosperous than before.
Søren looked up at the sky.
Port Tylon had a sea temple, which was a temple to serve the sea goddess. There were many such temples in the coastal areas. Pirates, villains, sea creatures, and so on. They mainly believed in the Lord of Storms and the sea goddess. The relationship between these two gods was quite complicated. They were both chaotic and evil, but they were full of competition between each other. From time to time, they would fight. These two gods fought once hundreds of years ago, so their relationship was relatively cold recently. However, the possibility of them hooking up again was not ruled out.
The hotel Søren found was very expensive.
It cost 15 Kindler a night, but it was also very safe because there were two resolute female warriors standing at the door.
This was a hotel owned by the Amazons as a post station for their stronghold.
No one dared to make trouble here, even the guards did not dare to check. These women were barbaric and unreasonable. Whether it was a guest or a guard, as long as they dared to break the rules here, they were their enemies. There was a large basement under the hotel. Søren could feel it when he walked on the floor. There were also traces of magic traps nearby. There were at least three high-grade professions here.
He entered the room quietly and then put the sleeping Vivian on the bed.
Søren was going to the sea temple to try his luck. If the other party was willing to remove the Energy Absorption spell for him, it would not be a problem even if he had to pay a little more.
The effect of the Energy Drain spell on his body was too unbearable.
The hotel was very safe. People who had been overseas knew how strong the Amazons were. Among the three pirate kings on the Soros Islands, the Amazons accounted for half of them. These women were very favored by the Storm Lord, and the sea goddess also liked these fierce female warriors. When Søren walked out of the door, a woman came up the stairs from the corner. It seemed that she had just come out of the basement. It was a wild woman, playing with a strange dagger in her hand. It seemed that it was not a weapon but a torture instrument.
The other party was stained with a lot of blood and a little bit of flesh, but it was all someone else's. After seeing Søren, she said calmly, "Guest? Don't worry! I just dealt with a guy who did not follow the rules! "
She seemed to notice Søren's appearance and the power contained in his thin body. This made her eyes light up slightly. She stuck out her tongue and licked her lips. She said as if she was teasing him, "Do you need some pleasant service? We have the most difficult to tame horses here! … Maybe with your appearance, they will be happy to provide service for free! … Of course, you have to be able to satisfy them! … Otherwise, they will throw you out of the bed! … "
Speaking of this, she smiled inexplicably and moved her eyes to Søren's lower body.
Søren seemed to be a little silent.
Sure enough, the Amazons were as fierce as ever!
