Chapter 30: The Aftermath

Although his heart was full of hatred, the fisherman Joel finally obeyed Wu Xin's order and did not kill the orc.

As Wu Xin said, he had a reason why he had to go back alive.

For the sake of his daughter, who depends on him for his life, he can't die.

Putting down the mace, Joel silently tied up all three captives with cables.

His cable was sufficient, binding two orcs and a drow, and there was still a large section of his shoulder.

"Just take off his bayonet and don't strip your clothes."

Listening to Wu Xin's words, Villefort stopped his movements stupidly, the leather armor of this drow elf was of good quality, much stronger than Villefort's tattered leather armor.

Joel did get a full set of equipment, one of the orcs had leather armor and the other had a shield, which was just right for Joel.

Bulsa also picked up a mace, a weapon that was clearly inappropriate for the orc, but she managed to swing it a few times, and seemed to be barely working.

"Hehe, the Drow elves have such a big reputation, I thought they could really be ten with one, I always thought that my instructor was a kind person, but I didn't expect it to be full of carriages." Villefort patted the drow elf in the face. "Are you too cowardly? Or are you all cowhide kings? ”

The drow elf understood Latin, and his face turned black with anger.

"If they are really that strong, why are we the ones who rule the world." Bulsa got her weapons and spoke with more confidence.

Wu Xin ignored Villefort and just stared at Bulsha coldly.

Bulsa realizes that Wu Xin was not fooled by her.

"Because they called us feces first, I fought back..."Bulsha avoided Wu Xin's eyes, but she didn't admit defeat.

"He called us, and of course there was a lesson to be learned." Wu Xin knew from the beginning that he was going to fight first, and he knew more about the nature of the Drow Elves than anyone else, and this race has left many names in history, the most important of which is their arrogance and xenophobia. "But you should not insult their faith, his mouth stinks, but he does not attack the great God."

"Yes, I didn't attack your faith, and I personally respect the Great Dark Sun." Considering the realities of the situation, the captives decided not to irritate the psychotic and psychotic believers.

Wu Xin didn't pay attention to the Drow Elf, but stared at Bursha, until she avoided her gaze slightly, Wu Xin said in the most stern voice: "The next time you attack a true god without my permission, then I will sacrifice you to Him in the way He likes, believe me, being slowly devoured by a spider is a way of death that you never want to experience." ”

Bulsha nodded in fright.

Although the Roman Church was very powerful, all kinds of demonic worship and secret churches were still very active, and all kinds of terrible sacrificial rituals have always been the story of villagers scaring children to sleep.

Wu Xin glanced at Bursa again, then waved his hand, and the group headed towards the castle.

"By the way, why didn't you shout spiders on top? I thought the drow elves were all queen spiders of faith? "Villefort was a little strange about his slogan.

"That's the name of a god, and his god name is the Waiting Spider, which should be a slave god after the spider." Delia was deeply immersed in religious knowledge, but she only knew that. "We'd better not say the name directly, so as not to attract attention."

'There are gods like the queen of spiders who also follow the gods?' Villefort wondered in his heart, Rose himself was already the weakest god in his knowledge, but he didn't ask anything more.

"This beautiful lady knows that Sydneytam is the Waiting Spider, and though we call him Rose's Warrior more often, you are a sensible and knowledgeable man. It's impossible to sneak into the castle at this time, so I think you'd better go back to the port. "Drow's performance was really different from his arrogance just now, his lewd appearance made Joel can't help but kick him, and he didn't care, just pounced at Delia's feet." I don't think you look like spies, I think so, as long as you get back to the port, I don't see you, and that's good for everybody. ”

"Huh."

"Huh."

He was met with sneers from Villefort and Joel.

Villefort continued: "Yes, yes, yes, you look like a drow of integrity, and I will let you go, and then I am sure you will not bring anyone to arrest us." ”

Drow Elf had a smile on his face, but he quickly realized that it was Villefort who was teasing him, and Villefort slapped his face with a large hand.

Villefort scolded him as he slapped him hard: "Whip you not because you want to harm us, but because you guys use such means to insult our intelligence, when we are all half-orcs?" ”

"What's your name, friend?" Wu Xin grabbed Villefort, and he loosened the rope a little for the Drow Elf.

He didn't want to reveal his identity, being captured in the culture ......of the Drow Elves was a great shame, and even if he could escape, it would weaken his position, so the dark elf hesitated slightly, and Villefort, who was walking behind, immediately gave him a knee on the back.

"Gee, what are you doing here?" Wu Xin smiled and picked up the drow elf who was kneeling on the ground, and then "fiercely" reprimanded Villefort. "Everyone is their own person, don't do it again. Okay, let's do it again, this friend, what's your name? ”

"My name is Koka Bossnaka, and I am the second son of the Eleventh Family..."

The group was still heading towards the castle, and it was impossible to hide their capture in any case.

"Oh? The second son of the eleventh family, although the second son has the lowest status in the aristocratic family, but he doesn't have to patrol the periphery, and he doesn't even have a single subordinate of Drow? "The one who raised the question was Delia, the only person other than Wu Xin who knew even a little about the political structure of the Drow Elves." How much ransom can this guy get in exchange? ”

However, it is only a slight understanding, although Wu Xin has just crossed over, but the knowledge provided by the specialty of "knowing history" is much richer.

"The Eleventh Family can't enter the Ruling Council of the Master Mother, this Maltese island is so poor in resources, the family that does not have a seat in the Ruling Council, even if there are some aristocratic privileges, is actually better than the commoner family, and now the entire southern coast of the Mediterranean Sea has become the territory of the Star and Moon Cult, and the original trade relations have been destroyed, this kind of small aristocratic family may be more difficult." When Wu Xin spoke, he still looked at Bosnaka with a smile. "I don't think there's going to be any ransom to pay."

The second son of this marginal aristocratic family tried not to reveal his true thoughts, but said: "There can be a little ransom after all, let's not go near the castle anymore." ”

In fact, his family is not only more difficult, but he, a nobleman, has to be rationed according to the limit of three meals.

The city of Drow on the island of Malta was not essentially an independent city-state, and until five years ago it was a vassal state of the Tunisian state of Drow.

It was only because the forces of the Star and Moon Sect destroyed the mother country of North Africa that this small state unexpectedly gained independence.

Independence is generally a good thing, and many small countries even dare to fight giants in order to obtain this thing.

But this is not the case for the city-state of Drow on the island of Malta.

This barren island could not maintain an independent state on its own, but could only serve as a supply depot and advance base for a certain powerful country, and in order to survive, it must be supported by a continental power, and there must be smooth trade routes.

In Wu Xin's main plane, the Knights Hospitaller received extensive donations from the countries of the continent, although the Barbary pirates were powerful and the Spanish navy was too burdened to concentrate on the Mediterranean.

But it is well established that once the Spanish navy is assembled and thrown in one direction, any enemy will face disaster.

It is this possibility that deters these pirates, who want to succeed, but are afraid of being too successful.

So the situation on the island of Malta is always difficult, but there is no shortage of food.

These favorable conditions are not available in the current Drow city-state, and there is no Drow country that believes in Rose on the entire Mediterranean coast, whether it is the Sultan of the Star and Moon Sect on the south shore of the Mediterranean, or the country that believes in the Roman Church on the north shore of the Mediterranean, all of them levy heavy taxes on trade with the Drow city-state.

If the island of Malta on the main plane is material scarcity, then the island of Malta in this plane is truly exhausted.

Not to mention the extreme shortage of all kinds of war preparation materials, even food rations must be controlled.

However, despite the collapse of commerce, the Council of the Lords, who were desperately short of revenue, did not dare to cut any taxes.

Because of the spies and missionaries of the Star and Moon Sect, they did not dare to expand their trade into the interior of the island.

On the contrary, it is necessary to spare forces to strengthen patrols when supplies are extremely scarce.

The nobles who were ranked eleventh, in such an embarrassing situation, of course, could not be exempted from their obligations.

The relationship between him and the housemother is relatively good in the Drow society, and there is still a little mother-son affection, but in the current bad situation, even if the housemother has a heart, she is powerless to pay any ransom to save her useless son.

"We don't want a ransom, Boy Bosnaka, in fact we are here to give you a future, as long as you help us avoid the other patrols and take us to the tower of the First Family, your family's ranking will rise greatly." Wu Xin's attitude was surprisingly friendly.
