Chapter 39: Exchange and Freedom
Sauron's figure instantly appeared inside the Astral Fortress.
The coercion belonging to the gods envelops all the Gisyankees, since the birth of the multiverse, the gods have always been above all things, whether it is the Mind Flayer Empire, the Thursilver Age, or the Arcane Age, although the power of mortals may also develop to a certain extreme, once entering the peak of the multiverse, but in the end it is still impossible to really compete with the gods. As a sequelae of the Mind Flayer Empire, the birth of the Gisyankees, although they avoided the gods, were only mortals after all.
"Honorable Shadow Master!"
"We didn't mean to offend you! …… We...... We didn't know you were there...... I don't know ......."
The leader of the Gisyankees appeared in front of Sauron, and in the face of a god of medium divine power, especially when the Astral Fortress had been blocked, he finally gave up his resistance completely, and stammered, "We didn't mean to offend!" ……”
"Please ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Sauron, who waved his hand lightly, and with the brilliance of the spell, a psionic warrior hiding in the corner who tried to sneak up was killed on the spot.
Death Finger.
With Sauron's current spell-casting ability, it was almost impossible for mortals to be exempt from the instant death spells he cast.
The Gisyankee psionic warrior soon lost all his life, and the power of magic robbed him of his soul, leaving him with a pale shell.
"You make a living from plundering, and when you rob others, you should have been ready to be plundered, right?"
Sauron's attitude was very cold, without the slightest mercy, and the other Gisyankees suddenly felt a trace of despair after hearing his words, not all of them did to challenge a true god head-on, even if it was an existence like the God Ascender-Eugene, it was a person who had challenged the secondary demon lord head-on, and the Lord of Shadows was still because of Sauron's actions. Other than that, Eugene hasn't had any arguments with any gods so far. Even if it's a god with weak divine power.
The Gisyankees don't believe in gods, but they know how terrible any true god is!
Not to mention Sauron, who has medium divine power.
It was easy to recognize Sauron's presence, as the power of the shadows had enveloped the entire fortress.
"Now you are all my captives and slaves."
"Everything you have is my spoils, and I have the right to dispose of your life and death at will!"
"Of course."
"This is also according to your convention, the rules of the astral plane!"
Speaking of this, a hint of a playful smile appeared on the corner of Sauron's mouth, the Gisyankees are a relatively brutal race, and they are also very cruel to other races because of their experience of being enslaved by the Mind Flayer.
Killing and plundering are just some of the things.
Because of their history of brutal enslavement, the Gisyankees are very fond of using psionic energy to control and enslave the minds of other races. They are a bunch of bandits roaming the astral plane.
Sauron is the god of the Order faction.
So he would not carry out senseless killings, and after the power of the shadow priesthood enveloped the entire fortress, he decided to treat them according to the laws of the astral plane and the style of the Gisyankees themselves, turning them all into his own slaves.
Since he is a slave, then life and death are in his sole control.
"You can try to resist!"
"I know you're good at rebellious slaves! …… But! …… In the same way, I will do the same to those who try to resist! ……”
Sauron's calm voice echoed throughout the fortress, and the battle on the Floating Tower's side had long since ceased.
The Gisyankees did not dare to act rashly.
Because any of their actions may provoke Sauron's merciless killing, and the evil gods will sometimes reason with you, but those are their own principles, and you can only choose to obey or die.
Sauron would not forgive them.
The Giss Yankees before launching a plundering attack. You should be prepared for defeat, mercy has no meaning, and resistance can only bring Sauron some killing experience.
"So."
"Now bring the fortress closer to the Floating Island."
Sauron stared at the sweaty leader of the Ghisyankees, the strength of the warlord under the empress. This leader has the power of a high-level legend, but he is like an ordinary person in the face of the power of Sauron's gods, which is the fundamental gap between gods and mortals. Sauron blocked all teleportation spells with the power of the godhead that altered space, and these Gisyankees couldn't even escape now.
And.
If Sauron casts a shockwave of Divine Power head-on. Then the result is very likely to be corpses all over the field.
The massive Astral Fortress began to move.
Soon, the figures of Golia and the Fallen Witch also appeared inside the fortress, and Golia's expression was slightly shocked at the moment. Although she had long known that Sauron's power had surpassed her after becoming a god, she was still shocked when she really saw him suppress a group of Gisyankees so easily.
This is the power of the gods!
Even in the most glorious arcane empires, the power of the entire arcane civilization was only to rival the gods.
A sense of distance made her feel pressured.
Because when she first met Sauron, he was nothing more than an inconspicuous thief, and now his back was up to her.
The Iron Golem begins to enter the interior of the fortress.
Groups of Giss Yankees, a group of more than 5,000 Gisyankees, were escorted into the floating tower, nearly half of whom belonged to combatants. The entire Gis-Yankee race is scattered in this way, and at the top is the Gis-Yankee Empress, something close to the undead, and below is the leader of many warlords, controlling their respective Astral Fortresses, constantly raiding the lives of other races.
The leader of the Ghisyankees watched as the Iron Golem escorted his people like slaves.
He resembles rebelling against Sauron, but he knows that this will only bring about the destruction of the race, and he constantly tries to call out the allies of the Gisyankees, the mortal legend of the Red Dragon Covenant. Basically, any Gisyankee Astral Fortress has at least one adult red dragon as an ally. The Astral Fortress in front of them has three adult red dragons as allies, and when they encounter powerful enemies, the leader can use the power of the covenant to summon them to help, and share a portion of the wealth obtained from looting with the evil red dragons.
The Covenant did not respond in any way.
Despite the constant calls of the leader of the Gisyankees, no red dragon has responded to his call.
The evil and cunning dragons had reneged on an ancient covenant, and after discovering that the enemy was a god and a god of moderate power, none of the three red dragons who had signed the covenant chose to assist them in the battle.
Because to come here is just to send them to death.
………………
Sauron was also waiting.
In fact, he had always been rebelling against himself at the leader of the Gisyankees, and this astral fortress was not very large, so there was very little room for a red dragon to move. This means that the red dragon covenant of this group exists in a contract, not directly raising the red dragon in it, he is waiting for the other party to summon the red dragon to appear, a Giss Yankee fortress certainly has a lot of wealth, but if you can slay the dragon by the way, then it is naturally a good thing.
There are fewer and fewer dragons in the material plane!
Most of the dragons live on Dragon Island and Dragon Country, and even the gods will easily enter because it is the territory of the dragon gods.
If the leader of the other party can summon a few red dragons, Sauron will be able to make another profit. It's a pity that it seems that the cunning red dragon knows about Sauron's existence, and he has waited for so long, but he has not seen any signs of resistance.
The Red Dragon Pact cannot summon allies to help.
The leader of the Gisyankees gave up their resistance out of desperation, and Sauron's plan seemed to have failed. It should have something to do with the fact that he exposed the power of the Godhead too early, and all these red dragons were too scared to come.
Although these Gisyankees were captured, what to do with them is also a problem.
This race is born with psionic powers, and as a slave, you need very powerful creatures to control them, such as the Mind Flayer.
The high priest should have a way.
However, before branding them as slaves, I am afraid that some shackles will need to be prepared to seal their power.
"Great Shadow Juggernaut!"
After making sure that the Red Dragon Covenant had expired, the leader of the Gisyankees finally gave up hope of rebelling against Sauron, but he still didn't want his people to lose their freedom, so he walked up to Sauron with a rough heart, bowed his head humbly and said, "It's our fault for offending the great you!" ”
"According to the rules of the astral plane, as losers, we deserve to be your captives."
"Still."
"I want to make a deal with your Excellency in exchange for the freedom of my people."
Sauron laughed when he heard this, and said slowly, "You are now my captives, and everything in the entire fortress is my spoils. ”
"I'm curious if you have anything else you can trade with me?"
The leader of the Gisyankees said in a deep voice: "Yes. ”
"I have one more piece of news."
"I'm sure Your Excellency will be very interested in it, and I hope to trade it for the freedom of my people."
Sauron's brows jumped when he heard this, and he said slowly, "What news?" ”
The leader of the Gisyankees looked at Sauron with a determined gaze and said in a deep voice, "The corpse of the ancient god floating in the astral plane. ”
"I want to trade a wandering corpse of an old god for the freedom of my people."
"We Gisyankees have been wandering the astral plane all our lives, and only we know where the corpses of some of the old gods are! If you are willing to give my people freedom, I am willing to tell you where the corpses of an old god are. ”
"If you don't want to."
"Then even if you kill me and torture my soul, you won't get any news."
"The hearts and souls of the Ghiss Yankees have been tested by the Mind Flayer, and I believe Your Excellency should know of the corpse of an ancient god and a group of insignificant slaves."
"Which is more important?"
……………… (To be continued.) )
