Abyss Domination
Chapter 23 Modo! Modo!
Fallen Leaf City, Agate River.
Sauron stood on the deck and stared into the distance. He turned his head to look at the scarred face behind him, and said slowly, How are the orcs doing?
Scarface leaned slightly and said: Your Excellency, they have been very honest recently.
Sauron nodded when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice, Let the scouts keep an eye on the movements of the orcs. If there is any special situation, send it to me immediately.
Yes. Scarface retreated in response.
The orc army failed twice in a row, and Eugene's actions became more cautious.
For the first time in Fallen Leaf City, he was tortured by the ancient brass dragon summoned by the incarnation of Sauron, forcing Eugene to retreat and regroup. Attacking Sauron that night, Eugene returned without success and suffered heavy losses. The blow of two consecutive failures is very serious to the half-orcs, and I am afraid their morale has been lowered a lot. The half-orcs haven't moved much recently, probably because they are afraid of being hit hard again. If they lose three consecutive battles, the morale of the Jagged Legion may not be able to hold back.
Eugene needed a victory to inspire the warriors, but Sauron would not give it such a chance!
………………
Orc-occupied land, on the banks of the Onyx River.
Teams of half-orc laborers are working hard. They cut down the trees in the forest one by one under the call of the supervisor, and then transported the logs back one by one. The camp of the half-orc army is already busy, many half-orcs are busy working, and the outline of the foundation has been established nearby. Relying on their natural strength advantages, the half-orcs worked very efficiently. In just half a day, a rough outline of the orc fortress appeared.
But this is just the beginning. Judging from the laid foundation, the scale of this fortress is much larger!
Fallen Leaf City.
The meeting hall was tense, and many nobles were talking about it. One of them said, What? Orcs are building a fortress on the other side of the river? What are they going to do?
Everyone present was worried.
If the orcs really built a large military fortress on the other side of the river. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for them to regain lost ground in the future.
Even if reinforcements arrive, the situation can turn into an enemy defending and attacking at once, but if you use the half-elf army to attack the military fortress built by the half-orcs, you will know how terrible the casualties will be if you take it down. Such a fortress is built with a spit and a nail, and the shaman is also a spellcaster. Although the craftsmanship of the half-orcs to build the fortress is not good-looking. But the durability will definitely not be worse than other races. If this fortress is really established, it will confront Fallen Leaf City.
That might be a good thing.
The old man sitting on the right glanced at the others. His territory was near Fallen Leaf City. Even if the land on the other side of the river was regained, he would not get much benefit, so he calmly said: In this way, The half-orcs should not launch an attack in a short time.
We can last until the reinforcements of the Earthwalker arrive!
………………
The half-orc finally learned his lesson.
Being severely injured twice in a row by Sauron's hands, Eugene's original idea of defeating the half-elf in one go was completely in vain. Now a military fortress is being built on the other side of the river to confront Fallen Leaf City. It is undoubtedly the most sensible behavior at present. On the one hand, it can consolidate the results of the rear, and on the other hand, it can advance and retreat freely. Anyway, Sauron doesn't think that the current Fallen Leaf City is capable of attacking the military fortress of the orcs, and the casualties that need to be paid are unbearable for anyone.
Eugene is planning to push forward step by step!
Sauron stared at the river in the distance, and said in a low voice: If the military fortress is really established and the location on the other side of the Onyx River is chosen, it is impossible for the half-elves to regain the lost land without fighting for decades.
pity.
Eugene didn't count the saint's catastrophe, the fortress is like paper to some existences!
………………
Overseas Islands, Port of Modo.
A towering lighthouse appeared in front of him. The excited voices of the sailors alarmed George, relying on his own ability, he became one with the fleet guards in just a few days. So he soon knew that Modo City was coming.
The gentle sea breeze blows in your face.
Flocks of seabirds can be seen in the distance, and under the blue sky, flying fish appear from time to time on the sea.
Everything in front of him was so novel and shocking to George who lived in the inland area since he was a child. He felt a wider world, and even had a little more longing for life on the sea. Compared with being confined to a town in the past, it is amazing to go to the life of Fallen Leaf City. Everything he saw on the sea along the way completely subverted his understanding. For the first time, he knew that the world was so big, and there were so many things that he had never thought about before.
The civilians in this world actually have a very small field of vision.
There were quite a few people like George, and soon others came to the deck and looked forward with amazement.
The figure of Modo City appeared.
It is a huge natural port, and it has been expanded after construction. In the distance, you can see white sails. There are a lot of ships docked near the port. Before you get close, you can hear the shouts of dock workers. , they were busy carrying goods, and from time to time a ship sailed. Just seeing this place for the first time, George felt the prosperity and richness here, and everything in front of him was a scene he had never seen in Fallen Leaf City.
Even, there is no such a prosperous trade in the entire inland area!
Trade is wealth, trade is vitality, the prosperity of Baima City is due to trade, and the decline of Baima City is because trade is blocked.
It will be here soon.
After this period of contact, the captain of the guard has become acquainted with George a lot. He glanced at the young people around him and said with a smile, Someone will arrange for you when you arrive at the pier.
George nodded with a smile, reached out and touched his pocket, there was still some money in it.
The other party took good care of them along the way, so George plans to invite the other party to a tavern for a drink after arriving in Modo City. He is still not sure how the church will arrange himself and others, but if he can get along well with this person, maybe he can As a caravan guard, he is still somewhat confident in his skills.
However, the guard captain politely declined with a smile. Slowly said: After sending you to the port, we will leave immediately.
This time, many chambers of commerce have heard the news.
I heard that there was a fleet from Arendelle, and they were already planning to go back with cargo. As soon as they heard the call-up order from Lord Sauron, they unloaded the cargo at the Shipwreck Bay without saying a word, and then went to the ship with empty ships. Run to Nusha Island. Taking you there will increase the annual profit of the chamber of commerce by at least 20 to 30 percent. We will also get a lot more rewards.”
So, the fleet will not stay here and will return to Nusha Island today.
Exemption from 'taxes' for one year.
This matter is very attractive to the Chamber of Commerce. Under Sauron’s control, all routes are controlled. The Chamber of Commerce needs to pay a lot of protection fees. If it is exempted for one year, the profit will increase by a large amount, otherwise it would be impossible. attract so many people. If it wasn't nearby, only the Chamber of Commerce in Shipwreck Bay, City of Fortune, and Tyro Harbor could rush over. I am afraid that fleets from other places will also want to come and make a fortune. That is to say, the favor of this Your Excellency has become familiar, and he has also gained practical benefits.
Why not do such a good thing?
………………
Port of Modo.
A large ship docked near the port, and there was an endless stream of people everywhere.
Sister, slow down!
George walked down the deck with the young woman in her arms, and soon a serious-looking law enforcement team came to escort them. Their destination was not the port. It's Modo City ahead. Many people looked around curiously. The port gave them the first impression that it was not so lively and prosperous, but rather clean and tidy. Compared to the city in their memory. It's so clean and tidy here, there is no rubbish on the ground. There is no obvious stench of crowded traffic.
There is only the faint fishy smell of the sea in the air.
Sister, look! It's a temple! So majestic! So magnificent!
The most eye-catching buildings in Modo Port are undoubtedly the Temple of Wealth and the Temple of the Ocean. These two churches seem to be getting angry recently. The Temple of Wealth is decorated with glittering gold, and the outer walls are painted with a layer of gold paint. The advantage of the Temple of Wealth is obvious at the level of local tyrants. However, the Ocean Temple also has its own advantages, that is, there are many treasures in the seabed, and it is very simple to get some night pearls and corals. During this period of time, the two temples were fighting openly and secretly to try to overwhelm each other, and the battle against believers was also quite fierce.
There is a smooth paved road across the port.
Many people were secretly observing the group of refugees who had traveled a long distance. The characteristics of the half-elf were quite obvious, but no one disturbed them, only occasionally watching with curiosity.
In the team responsible for escorting them, George saw the legendary evil drow.
Or should I say half-drow.
The evil beings in these legends have cold expressions, and they don't care about other people at all. They just carry out their tasks strictly and even harshly, and hardly talk to others except for orders. Not knowing if it was his own illusion, George saw a trace of panic in the eyes of these drow warriors, but it was not that kind of fear, but a hidden panic. This hidden emotion made them very serious and demanding, and they carried out orders meticulously, as if they were worried that they would be replaced.
Modo City finally appeared in front of my eyes.
The reclaimed land can be seen in the distance, and there are green crops in the fields. This scene full of vitality makes them have better hopes for the future.
but!
There was a sudden panic ahead, as well as the terrified cries and cries of women and children. George put his hand on the hilt of his sword in an instant, and he was ready to fight.
Roar!
The dull roar of the dragon echoed in everyone's ears.
On the wall of Modo City, a gigantic figure appeared. Its icy pupils glanced at these tiny humans, and then it flapped its dragon wings and flew into the air!
The biped pterosaur with a wingspan of nearly ten meters circled above their heads, and then flew towards the sea.
George's legs trembled slightly.
The scene just now not only startled him, but also made many people around him cry a lot. Compared with the huge biped pterosaur in front of him, the orc's warg is like a puppy.
The guards have not changed in any way, and they seem to be very familiar with this biped pterosaur.
Soon the team was appeased.
They entered Modo City from the south gate. George couldn't help turning his head and glanced at the direction where the bipedal pterosaur was flying away. His heart was surging for a while, and he murmured, Is this Modo City?
