Chapter 1261: Successful transaction (ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription, ask for a recommendation) ask for a monthly pass!!
"So how about making a deal?" Soram didn't bother with him, although the elf in front of him was very resolute, willing to die for freedom, which was very simple, but in fact, it was that simple.
In the strange and evil place of the abyss, even if the mortals who come here die, they will not be liberated, their bodies are dead, but their souls will still be enslaved, tortured, and distorted.
To put it in a simple sentence, they will never be able to turn over! Because they are already in the abyss.
It is better to be free to care, and life can be thrown away.
It's beautiful to say, but it doesn't actually change anything. Like the slaves who died before, their souls may have appeared in the pool of Yenogu's blood and become the new demons.
So Solam gave them a better choice, which was to try to survive.
"What deal?" Sure enough, after struggling, the elf asked hesitantly. As for their own fate, in fact, these guys vaguely know something, but they all refuse to admit it at first, they think that they still have the possibility of being saved.
"Help me lay down this city, and I'll give you the chance to live! What do you think? That's a good deal, right? ”
If Solam's request were heard by others, it would probably be a lump of directly on his face! Selling his life for him, can only get the possibility of living? Could there be more ridiculous trading conditions than this? It's so unfair!
But the elves knew that Solam's conditions were not bad. Because he knows very well that the peculiarities of the abyss have already decided, and it will be difficult for mortals to survive here. The harsh natural environment is one thing, and more importantly, they are mortal! Their souls are definitely the most attractive thing to demons, and letting them wander in the abyss is undoubtedly looking for death.
Although he knew that Solam's condition was not bad, the problem was that the elves wanted more.
"We're going home! Also, how can we trust you? "The elves obviously want the best ending, and there may be some temptation to live in the abyss, but they feel like they are going home, rather than staying in this abominable land!
"Home?" Solam shook his head with a wry smile, he still wanted to go back! "You don't have to think about this, let's not say that it's impossible to send you back, it's possible, and the price you need to pay is not something I can afford."
200,000 people Solam can't do it, 3,000 people are actually the same, Solam doesn't have the ability. Unless there is a demon church in the material plane that initiates a large-scale blood sacrifice to open the portal between the material plane and the abyss, there is no other way.
Solam, a rookie demon lord, where to find a demon church, and let himself form a demon church, Solam is not interested, when he was in Faeron before, Soram didn't have a good impression of those demon worshippers, how could he take the initiative to create that kind of thing?
"Let's be realistic, all you can do is try to live. Don't talk about all unrealistic ideas. As for the words, how do you believe me...... I really can't make you believe me, I can only say, if I promise you, I will do it, I have no merit in this person, I can barely count one of my words into action. So, whether you believe me or not, you can only gamble. ”
Soram seems to be very Buddhist, but in fact, Soram's view of helping these slaves has always been that it doesn't have much impact on the final situation. After all, Soram only intends to give them a chance, and if they seize it, Soram will naturally keep his promise.
Feeding 200,000 people, Solam has no way at all, but it can be replaced by three thousand, Solam can barely live in the city, the sixth cremation pile, the previous environment even the demons can't survive, but after the upheaval, although the current sixth cremation pile is still not a suitable place for the environment, but it can also barely survive.
Coupled with the fact that Soram is now allied with Mecanshut, some of the food and necessities that mortals need can be obtained from her.
Although this is obviously not cost-effective, these people are mortals, and Solam is still willing to take care of his "fellow countrymen".
The elf looked at Soram with complicated eyes, although Solam's words did not have any substantive guarantees, but the elf felt it, and Soram didn't want to lie to them. After all, it's not necessary, and it's not so deceitful to deceive people.
And they don't really have any choice anymore. He was not the original Unos, and it was impossible for him to take a group of mortals to gain a foothold in the abyss alone. If they want to live, they can only find a master for themselves...... It's ironic that they sacrificed so much just to be free, but now they have to give up their freedom in order to live......
But that's the reality.
Perhaps sensing the elves' concerns, Soram spoke again, "You don't have to worry that I want to enslave you like a gnollo, well, you can be my men, not slaves." "This is Solam's last preferential treatment, and no matter how much it is, Soram can't do anything to save it.
The elf thought for a moment, then finally looked up and said to Solam, "I need to talk to my brothers and sisters, it's all about us. ”
Soram nodded.
"Yes, but please hurry up, there's not much time left."
The elf glanced at Soram, then walked quickly to the place where the slaves had gathered. Then the slaves began to stir, which made the demons and pirates very wary of what the slaves, who were almost out of control, would do something irrational.
Fortunately, although the slaves were still arguing fiercely and were very emotional, they did not cause any violence, and finally the slaves began to calm down under the pressure and adjustment of the elves and several prestigious people.
"We accept the deal!" Soram smiled as the elf walked up to him and uttered the words in a desperate manner.
*********************
"I suggest that all the artillery first abandon the bombardment of the city walls and aim it here." A dwarf named Thorin Eredruin Turin drew a simple map of the ancient city of Yeno on the ground with a tomahawk he had snatched out of nowhere, and then pointed it at a position near the giant rock roller below the city.
The dwarf and the elf named Thrandui were two of the most prestigious of the slaves.
By the way, as you can see from the names of these two people, the origin of these two guys is not simple.
The name Thrandui means "vigorous spring" in ancient Elven language, symbolizes a new journey, and is generally referred to as a prince or heir. Elves are a very old-fashioned and stubborn race in some ways, and they don't mess with names just because they sound good, at least these kinds of names with special meanings, and they don't just put them on someone who doesn't match.
And the name of the dwarf Thorin is even more elaborate. Dwarven names are generally composed of names + patronymic + clan names, and the end of Thorin's name is not a clan name, what style of dwarf clan name is well known, either stone or beard, the name Turin is definitely not a clan name.
And the name Turin was not ordinary, Soram remembered seeing it in a book of famous dwarven histories called The Book of Dwarves, which was the name of a very famous dwarven hero. Although he is not a hero of Pheron, he still has a certain reputation in the multiverse.
Most of the people who can use the name of a hero as a name suffix are members of the royal family of a certain dwarven kingdom, and only this type of dwarf name suffix is not a clan name.
Matching his identity, this dwarf is very capable, not only is he quite strong in combat (level 14 dwarven warrior), but he is also very proficient in engineering, which can be seen from his sketch of the ancient city of Yeno, although it is only a few strokes, but it draws the general structure of the entire complex.
