The day passed quickly.

Sauron mobilized three large ships to transport these native slaves back, and for fear that the natives would resist, they could only transport about a hundred people in batches. It took almost several trips back and forth, and the final count of the captives was one thousand and fifty-six. This group of captives was very useful, and as long as they could be contained, the progress of Sauron's construction would be greatly accelerated, and the trouble of transporting the captives from the port of Taylor would be saved.

Batches of people were brought back.

By the time Sauron was done, it was already dark, and the camp had suddenly increased by more than a thousand people, and both space and food became tight. Fortunately, there are still a lot of rations in the indigenous tribes, and it should be no problem for Sauron to support it for about two or three months. Because of the large number of natives captives, Sauron had to be kept under strict supervision, and all the captives were divided into three parts, with fifty or sixty men in each place taking turns to keep vigil.

Even the Drow elven warriors were assigned to guard the captive indigenous warriors.

These are very troublesome hard bones!

If you can submit it, it's best, if you can't submit Sauron, you will be ready to slaughter them all, and you can get tens of thousands of killing experience points.

Manpower is really important in relatively barren times!

………………

It stands to reason that there should be no problem with Sauron's strict arrangement.

Because he barely slept that night, he only closed his eyes slightly and slept for about three hours. The total number of pirates in the camp was only about 300, and the number of drow elven warriors was only about 30, but the number of slave captives reached more than 1,300. Under these circumstances, it was difficult for Sauron to rest in peace, and he was even prepared to use brutal means to suppress the rebellion of his captives. But the real problem is not the natives who are captive, nor the slaves who are brought with them.

It's Sauron's own men!

His men are missing.

There was more than one missing, and three people suddenly disappeared in the middle of the night. The pirates who kept vigil on the watchtower of the fence patted their chests to ensure that no one came in or out during the night, and that no one came near the fence. But just like that, three of Sauron's men were still missing, completely inexplicably gone, leaving no trace behind. The pirate minions in charge of handing over to them said that the three of them had completely disappeared into the camp with just half a cup of tea.

"How is that possible?"

Sauron sat in the hall in the early hours of the morning, frowning and listening to the report of the one-eyed dragon in front of him, and muttered, "How could three great living people suddenly disappear all at once!" ”

These are pirates who have been through a lot of battles. At the very least, they are all second-order strength.

It's so weird to disappear!

I'm afraid it's not something that can be done by conventional means at all.

"Keep looking!"

Sauron looked at the subordinates in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Search the entire camp, I don't believe that the three big living people will disappear for no reason!" ”

The cyclops below nodded in response, and the pirates set up their torches.

Groups of men began to circle around the camp, and this sudden movement also caused some commotion among the captives, but still no one acted rashly, and the servility of the inferior natives was still relatively high. Pirate minions scattered throughout the camp, and some people searched outside the fence, but there was still no sign of them. Half an hour passed quickly, and many people had returned to their original places, but they could not find any traces, and there were no footprints to go outside.

As for the footprints inside the camp. It's too cluttered to be tracked!

Little by little, time passed.

If he couldn't find anyone, Sauron naturally had to let his men rest, but he seemed to be pressing something in his heart, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Sauron naturally couldn't sleep in this situation.

So he had been sitting in the hall until a glimmer of light appeared on the edge of the sky, but at this time. Sauron suddenly heard a commotion and noise outside, followed by the exclamations and screams of someone. He had been sitting in his chair and opened his eyes almost instantly, and then he saw Sauron's figure turn into an afterimage. rushed to the place where the riot was taking place at an alarming speed. He saw a patrol of pirates hugging a man in front of him, with minions shouting and waving their swords as if to block something from approaching.

The smell of blood!

Sauron frowned and took a leap, tiptoe a little against the wall of the house, and then the whole person flew through the air like an eagle, and landed in front of the group of pirate minions. What Sauron saw in front of him couldn't help but shake his whole body, and then a cold sword light appeared in his palm, and without hesitation, he slashed at the very hazy and vague phantom in front of him.

- "Twist the Shadows!" ”

The space in front of Sauron's eyes seemed to be a distorted picture, and in the shadow of the house was a gray-looking crack, in which three or five distorted shadows could be seen, as well as two bloody corpses. Judging by their features, scars, clothing, etc., it is almost certain that these corpses are Sauron's pirates.

Shadow Crack!

The spatial passage connecting the shadow planes, which for some reason appears, has supernatural spatial abilities, and has the potential to suck people who are close to them directly into the shadow plane. Most of these shadow rifts occur in places where there is a strong connection to the physical plane, and there are supernatural forces that keep the rifts running. Most of the time they appear at certain times, and then when the energy movement shifts, the shadow cracks fade away.

"Stand back!"

Sauron yelled at his men beside him, and then leaped forward, piercing through the shadow rift.

- "Sword Momentum: Whirling Dance!" ”

The scimitar in his hand sliced through the cold light, dodging the distorted shadows nearby, and then slammed into the corpses of the two pirates, sending them into the air from the shadow plane back to the material plane.

Bang!

Two bodies hit the ground.

The space of the shadow crack seemed to be gradually closing, as the sky had begun to lighten, and a number appeared in Sauron's eyes, but he didn't have the energy to check it at this time. The thing that appeared in front of his eyes at this moment had already shocked his heart, and almost the whole person couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses and stomped his foot violently from the crack in the shadow plane that was gradually closing back to the material plane.

The moment he returned to the physical position, Sauron looked deeply ahead of him.

It's a tower that reaches into the sky!

A near-intact wizard's tower, with gray stone walls, no more than three kilometers away, in a location and direction similar to where Sauron's memories had found mutated plants.

The only difference is!

The Material Plane is a ruin, while the Shadow Plane is an intact wizard tower!
