Port Taylor, the temple of the sea.

The figure of the Naga priest sat at the back of the temple, I don't know why she actually put on a gorgeous sacrificial robe today, and the whole person seemed to be preparing something important, and her expression was quite strict. However, when she listened to the report of some kind of distorted sea creature in front of her, her face gradually turned ugly, and she frowned at the blue water in front of her, and muttered, "What the hell is this bastard Sauron going to do?" ”

"Mobilize the fleet at such a time!"

"Has he made any big moves lately? Is it preparing to take revenge on the Principality of Rosad? Or is there something bigger? ”

"Damn it!"

The Naga priest tapped the ground with his scepter and said in a condensed voice, "How many navies has he mobilized?" ”

Army.

I don't know when she changed her name to 'navy' for Sauron's subordinates.

The distorted shadow is hidden in the sea water below the Ocean Temple, and it is impossible to see the specific appearance, but it can be felt that it is some kind of mutated sea creature, the aura on its body is very powerful, it looks like a hybrid of some kind of sea creature and sea monster, with the strength beyond the high-level professional but not yet the legendary realm, this creature has appeared in the Ocean Temple more than once.

Its entire body was hidden in the sea, and in a deep Naga voice, it said, "Hundreds of warships have been mobilized near the port of Taylor. The battleship Dragonhead also docked near the port of Taylor. ”{

"Viper Island has mobilized about fifty or more medium-sized warships, and a batch of materials has recently been shipped out of here."

"The number of fleets in the Shipwreck Bay is huge."

"If you don't count the small clippers, there are probably more than three hundred warships, and if you count the small pirate ships, I'm afraid there are more than six hundred."

"There are more warships rushing back!"

"Arendelle in the Ice and Snow Country, the patrol fleet of the Southern Island Nation, and the pirates who have been subjugated on the West Coast."

"These are just some of them."

"Sauron has annexed many chambers of commerce during this time, and there are also many merchant ships and frigates that can be mobilized secretly, if you are conservatively estimated. He was able to mobilize thousands of medium-sized ships. ”

The Naga priest gasped when he heard this.

She fell silent for a long time before she muttered, "Has he become so powerful?" ”

"This guy!"

"How can the strength grow so fast!?"

The distorted figure in the sea also fell silent, and after a moment spoke, "Your Excellency Priest! Since Sauron's rise, he never seems to have failed. This gives him a charisma that no one else can imagine among pirates, not to mention his own skill, and now from the South Coast all the way to Arendelle, any chamber of commerce that wants to walk safely on the seas must look at his face. ”

"Originally, pirates earned their money from looting, but now many pirates have taken on the responsibility of frigates."

"Although this is based on the situation of exploiting other chambers of commerce."

"Don't you think it's like a tax in the kingdom? Sauron divided his territory across the oceans. Then use pirates to control these seas, and finally force others to pay taxes! ……“

There is no strength before.

Sauron's actions should be extorting protection money, but when his strength is strong enough, then every qiē becomes a legitimate 'tax'.

He provided protection for the Chamber of Commerce and then collected taxes to feed the pirates.

This is the prototype of the army!

The Naga priest's face became more and more solemn, and his expression didn't know if he was unwilling or something else, and muttered, "I'm afraid his influence will become greater and greater if this continues!" ”

The shadows in the sea also fell silent, and he said slowly: "Your Excellency Priest! ”

"I'm afraid that Sauron is no longer something we can control. Ever since he annexed the other pirates on the South Coast, his strength has grown exponentially. The naval battle of Arendelle allowed him to successfully defeat the regular army of the kingdom. As a result, his fleet swelled dramatically, and many of the pirates who had been waiting on the sidelines took refuge in him. ”

"And."

"Attacking the southern island nation on the order of the Pirate King has also won the final victory!"

"Sauron has captured almost all the pirates on the South Coast since that war, and even many caravans from Shipwreck Bay to Port Taylor have approached him."

"If it weren't for this time he moved the fleet. I'm afraid we don't know exactly how strong his hidden strength really is! ”

The Naga priest couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Oh, yes.

If it weren't for the scale of Sauron's fleet mobilization that alarmed many people, I'm afraid they would have been kept in the dark to this day, not knowing what powerful armed force he had in his hands.

Pirates, chambers of commerce, guards.

Sauron's control of the pirates was only a force on the surface, as he used violence either to annex or force other chambers of commerce to submit. The guards controlled by the Chamber of Commerce also fell into his palm. Sea trade is not land trade, more than half of the people on a merchant ship can be counted as combat effectiveness, and sailors are already trained in combat. The Chamber of Commerce guards have many elites. Although Sauron shared a part of the profits, the slave trade, the ocean trade, and the eastern shipping routes were almost all controlled by himself.

Viper Island, Port Taylor, Shipwreck Bay, Angry Sands, West Coast, Arendelle, Southern Island.

Modo!

From the moment he defeated the annexed pirate king Asrod, Sauron's armed forces had been expanding rapidly, otherwise they would not have been able to support Arendelle's expedition and the great war against the southern island nations.

"Bring me the map!"

The Naga priest suddenly stood up and said to the temple guards outside, "Bring me the map of the ocean!" ”

Heavy footsteps sounded.

The guards of the Sea Temple quickly brought over a map, and the Naga priest quickly spread it out in front of him, and then looked at it carefully with a frown. She held out her finger and clicked a little on the city of Mordor in the overseas archipelago, and then drew a line that directly connected to Port Taylor. This is followed by three lines connecting Viper Island, Angry Sands Island and Shipwreck Bay. Then, the Naga priest's face turned pale, and his fingers were connected from the island of Angry Sands to the eastern shipping route, and then from the Shipwreck Bay to the western coast - Arendelle - the southern island nation.

"First Fleet."

"Third Fleet."

"Fifth Fleet."

"The Dragonhead is in Tyro Harbor, and the pirate leaders under Sauron, such as Giant, Scarface, and Sir are in Shipwreck Bay."

"Here!"

"There is still his hidden power here in the City of Fortune."

"Angry Sand Island."

"The fleet of the Pirate King Asrod! …… This is the sea of the Duchy of Rosad! …… The pirate's Sixth Fleet has been anchored here! ……”

"Sauron, this guy!"

"He's already got such a strong naval armament here! …… And now even the fleets near Arendelle and the southern island nation have been mobilized! ……”

"Damn it!"

"What the hell is this bastard trying to do?"

The Naga priestess slammed the wall and turned to stare at the map in front of her, she sensed Sauron's plan, it was definitely a big move, but she couldn't figure out what Sauron wanted!

Such an armed force.

Even a landing operation is enough to attack a land kingdom, right?

An army of thousands of fierce and murderous pirates, a huge fleet capable of blocking all the coastlines of any kingdom, and an ambiguous relationship with the Northland Witch Council, he is now on board with Arendelle in the Ice Country. When the Naga priestess spread out the map and looked at Sauron's power again, she couldn't help but feel a little fear, a tremble, and an indescribable shock in her heart!

As Sauron's rival and ally.

The Naga priestess knew very well how weak Sauron was at the beginning, and it was completely under her control, but now that man had become a terrible being that she needed to look up to!

She witnessed this qiē with her own eyes, but as a competitor.

Tick.

A slimy tentacle protruded from the wet water, and then gently tapped at two locations on the map, and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency, Priest." ”

"Sauron's pet has arrived, and the Ghost Battleship, the Dead Whisperer, is hidden here."

Click!

The Naga priest was shocked when he heard this.
