Port Tylon.
In a tavern near the port, the half-elf first mate was sitting at the bar waiting. Next to him was a prostitute, but he was not interested in looking at her. There was a sign outside the tavern. The sign was painted with a great white shark. There were many people waiting outside. Many of them looked fierce, so ordinary people passing by did not dare to approach. About ten minutes later, a skinny man came in. He looked around, then turned and went into the tavern.
"How is it?"
The half-elf first mate glanced at the skinny man who came in and said in a deep voice, "Have you found the person I need?"
The skinny man quickly bowed his head and replied, "Because it's near the end of the year, many people have left here. Dwarves have been rare during this time. Maybe it's because of the City of Wealth, now the whole coastal area is a bit depressed. "
The half-elf first mate frowned and said, "I don't care what the reason is. The person I need must be found for me, or I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish."
The skinny man heard the words and had a cold sweat on his forehead. He quickly said, "I will do it as soon as possible. I will do it as soon as possible."
"However, there are a lot of people who know how to make bricks, but it's very difficult to find someone who's proficient in it. I heard that some slaves were recently shipped from the East, among which there are craftsmen who know how to make porcelain. This batch of slaves seems to be sent here for some reason. Anyway, many people have received the news recently. Some of them will be sent to the City of Wealth for auction, and the other will be sent to the Principality of Rossard. "
The half-elf first mate showed a look of interest and said slowly, "Eastern slaves? Porcelain? "
"Yes." The skinny man quickly nodded and said, "Among the slaves sent from the East, there are many craftsmen who know how to make porcelain. It seems that something big happened over there. Many Easterners were demoted to slaves. Since these people even know how to make such exquisite porcelain, it should be no problem to make simple bricks and tiles. They should be able to meet your requirements. "
Porcelain? Slaves?
The half-elf first mate raised his hand and touched his chin as if he was thinking about something. He said slowly, "It seems to be useful. Where are they? You also have to find me the dwarf who built the furnace. You know His Excellency Throat Cutter's temper. If he is unhappy because things are done too slowly, I'm afraid another batch of heads will be cut off in Port Tylon. "
The skinny man quickly nodded and left after saying a few more words.
After he left, the half-elf first mate raised his hand and beckoned to the scarred man next to him. He then ordered, "Go to Snake Island to gather people and prepare a batch of fast boats. Those craftsmen will definitely be useful. Let's go and grab them."
They were pirates.
Pirates spent money to buy things because they had moral integrity. Robbing them was their professional ethics.
Scarface's subordinate quickly nodded and left.
The half-elf first mate nodded with satisfaction, and then began to think about how to take down the slaves with the least casualties and the fastest speed. His Excellency Throat Cutter recently needed a lot of labor, and this batch of Eastern slaves seemed to be very valuable.
At the other side.
After the skinny man left the tavern, he quickly made his way into an alley. He entered from a back door and came to a room. Outside the room, there was a powerful female Amazon warrior guarding. Inside, there was a woman with a scar on her face and a dagger. She glanced at the skinny man who came in and asked, "How is it?"
"It looks like he took the bait." The skinny man quickly bowed his head.
The Amazon woman with a scar on the side of her face showed a smile and said playfully, "Very good! That batch of goods is secretly controlled by the Pirate King Ashrod. As long as this group of Throat Cutter's men snatch the goods, their conflicts will soon become more and more intense. The Pirate King Ashrod has long felt threatened and dissatisfied with the rise of Throat Cutter. Now he should make a move, right? "
The skinny man quickly nodded and hesitated for a moment before saying, "But! That batch of goods seems to have more than just some slaves transported by the way, right? Some of the things in it are very valuable. I'm afraid that they will benefit in the end! And I'm afraid that Ashrod can also guess the information we revealed to them! "
The Amazon woman looked at him contemptuously and said slowly, "It's just fifty or sixty thousand Kindler's goods. If it can make the two Pirate Kings fight, it's worth paying a little price. That man thinks that he can run rampant on the sea with the support of the Naga royal family behind him. It's not the first time he has done things secretly behind the Sea Temple's back. Now we just have to sit back and reap the benefits. "
The skinny man didn't speak, but his expression was inexplicably worried.
Instigating the struggle between the two Pirate Kings on the south coast would definitely put a little pressure on him. As long as either side knew, his end would be very miserable.
Now he only hoped that after they fought, no one would be in the mood to pay attention to a small character like him.
…
The Outer Islands.
Søren returned to the camp at dawn. Vivian seemed to have not slept all night. After feeling that he was back, she closed her eyes sleepily. The little girl was worried that Søren would be in danger. Because she had used 'Limited Wishing', the two of them had a telepathic ability. She was ready to teleport at any time when Søren was in danger. Now that Søren was back, she was naturally relieved. The little girl, who had been very sleepy during this time, quickly fell asleep.
It was really enviable. The little girl slept most of the time every day, but her strength grew faster than Søren.
It was as if sleeping could improve her combat power!
After Søren came back, he immediately became busy. On the one hand, he strengthened his vigilance. On the other hand, he also studied how to uproot the indigenous tribes.
There were two most troublesome problems in dealing with the indigenous tribes.
The first was the spirit that they worshipped and sacrificed. Most of the spirits had legendary combat power, and there was more than one spirit. If the tribe maintained the worship of the ancestors, then the number of spirits might be more. The most powerful of them was probably above the legendary level. The other souls were directly transformed into souls after the death of the high-grade warriors in the tribe. This kind of existence was a bit like the [War Spirit]. It was more common in totemic areas, and it was a common situation in the Far North and Iceland.
Souls were a bit similar to Holy Spirits. Both had a weak divine power!
It was not that easy to deal with souls.
Anything that was related to the power of the gods was not easy to deal with. Even if Søren and Vivian worked together, it would be more troublesome to deal with the souls sacrificed by the indigenous tribes for generations.
Secondly, the aborigines were proficient in the use of poisons and medicines. Whether it was the blowdarts that could force people to faint or the poisons and liquids that could be smeared on weapons, these things were quite dangerous and troublesome. Moreover, the speed of these poisons was quite fast. Once you were poisoned, you would fall to the ground in a short time.
Søren had a headache dealing with them, not to mention the other pirates.
This was the most troublesome thing in the outer islands. There were too many poisonous things here. With a little knowledge of potions, it was easy to find the poisoned things here.
Søren frowned and thought, his fingers gently stroking the table.
At this moment, the sky was already bright.
Because Søren ordered to lift the ban on alcohol and let the pirate minions celebrate the new year, the whole camp was now in a celebratory atmosphere. No matter how fierce the pirates were, they were still humans, and humans would certainly have some other emotions. There was no need for decorations for the new year, but a bonfire had to be set up. Large bowls of wine and large pieces of meat were also necessary. Some of the pirates were prepared to hunt, and some were prepared to go out and fish for seafood.
Many of the pirates were fishermen and sailors.
Recently, the pirate minions had a little understanding of Søren's eating habits. They knew that the Throat Cutter liked seafood, such as sea cucumbers, shark fins, lobsters, and so on. Even the king crab, which was rarely eaten, was quite liked by him. Many seafood actually had a strong fishy smell. In this era, spices were very expensive. Many people directly boiled the seafood they caught, and there was basically no seasoning.
A group of pirates was ready to go to the sea. They planned to catch some rare seafood and bring it back to Søren.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, there was a trace of a ship in the distance. It did not look like a warship, and there was no flag on it. The pirate leader under Søren still knew the severity of the situation. After seeing the ship in the distance, he immediately ordered his minions to go back and report. Then they sent out a fast boat and rowed towards the approaching ship in the distance, ready to inquire about the identity of the other party.
But it seemed that they did not need to ask!
Because the pirate leader had just approached and recognized who the person in front of him was. The other party had too obvious characteristics, such as black skin, silver-white hair, and scarlet pupils.
Drows!
Strictly speaking, they should be half-drows of mixed blood.
Standing on the bow was the drow warrior that Søren let go. Behind him was a whole team of drow warriors. Although their equipment looked a little worse, and many of them had some traces of damage, they were much stronger than the pirates. The pirate leader in front of him was stunned for a moment, but he did not stop them to ask. He just let the team of drows in front of him go ashore.
On this day.
After waiting for more than a month, Søren finally received a response from the drows.
However, the time was much later than he expected!
