Chapter 62: Black Rain Strategy (3)
Wu Lao nodded and said: "Yes, this is a secret method that circulates in the swamp tribe, its origin is no longer verifiable, with the help of this secret method, we can leave a soul mark for each clan, in the secret room of the clan, there is a soul lamp for each of them, and the lamp is extinguished when people die, and it has never failed!"
Yuri's eyes narrowed slightly: "This kind of witchcraft, if you unilaterally turn off the lights, what will happen to people?"
Wu Lao shook his head and said, "It's not going to be good, it's just a one-sided monitoring witchcraft." β
Yuri pondered for a moment and said, "Judging from what you said, those who were captured should be trapped in some places, such as building some large-scale projects or something..."
After hearing from the Witch Elder about the disappearance of a large number of people, but being able to confirm that these people were not dead, Yuri began to suspect that the castle being built in the unknown valley met this condition and required a large population.
Wu Lao smiled bitterly: "If it's really just work, I'm still relieved, I'm afraid that the work is done, and the people will be gone!" The old leader also nodded in agreement, and said to Yuri: "My lord, I don't know if you have any way to get us out of this predicament?"
Yuri said lightly: "For now, it is better to maintain the status quo, and the top priority is to find out where the people of the tribe have been taken, as well as the enemy's intelligence." If you have any information on this, you'd better tell me as much as you can, and I understand your eagerness to save people, and I guess you want the Dukes to send troops to wipe out all these people, but I can tell you that not yet. β
Wu Lao said a little anxiously: "Why not, as long as you lead the troops to defeat the White Frost Clan, our clansmen will definitely be able to get it back!"
Yuri looked at Wu Lao with a smile and said, "Do you know what kind of impression the Black Rain Swamp gives to the outside world? And what do you say about this place? It's an abandoned land! It's an abandoned land in the entire empire, and no one wants it here! The reason why it fell into the hands of my family was also because of an accident, do you know that my father didn't consider this place his territory? If it weren't for someone who provoked me, you really thought I would be willing to come to this place?"
Wu Lao looked at Yuri with a blue face and said, "Then what do you mean!? You have been talking for a long time, can you help us or not!?"
The old man's face was also a little unpleasant, but he calmed down and said slowly: "This lord, I know you still have something to say, why don't you continue?"
Yuri nodded and smiled: "It's still the old leader who has the eyesight, it's not appropriate to attack the White Frost Clan at present, I can tell you for sure that these outsiders are no better than the Black Goat Sect back then! Even I suspect that these people are the remnants of the Black Goat Sect back then! For the tribes that have less contact with the outside world, you may not know the methods of those people." β
Yuri flipped over his hand and took out a control ring, and said, "Elder Wu, have you seen this kind of thing?"
Wu Lao squinted his eyes at the object in Yuri's hand, and only after a long time did he say, "I've seen it!"
This time it was Yuri's turn to be surprised, and Yuri hurriedly said, "Where have you seen it?"
Wu Lao frowned and thought for a long time before he said, "I have seen it on the people of the White Frost Clan, my lord, are the things in your hands fixed on the back of the person's neck?"
Yuri frowned slightly, "Yes, these things were found from the minions of my enemy! This kind of thing is a control device, which can interfere with people's memories and forcibly control people's will, and if it is discovered by the people of the White Frost Tribe, we can't act recklessly." β
Wu Lao stared at the control device in Yuri's hand and said, "You mean, the White Frost Clan has been completely controlled?"
Yuri nodded, "It's basically certain, but I don't know how many people have been implanted with this kind of device!"
Yuri looked at the old man and said: "Old man, I need intelligence, this organization is a little unexpected at present, I will go to this White Frost Department, before getting more accurate information, many means cannot be implemented, I also need to be responsible for the Duke's troops, and a war that is uncertain is not easy to fight." β
Yuri waved his hand at Rustle not far away, Lacedell walked in front of Yuri, Yuri nodded, Hasdell waved his hand, and a bunch of standard imperial military spears appeared on the ground, mixed with more than a dozen compound bows in the middle, as well as a large number of stainless steel arrows, Yuri looked at the old man and said: "I need manpower, preferably excellent scouts, the more the better, my people will soon rush to the swamp, this thing should be regarded as an advance commission, I don't know what the old man wants?"
The old patriarch stared at the weapons and equipment on the ground, his cloudy eyes seemed to be a little brighter, he reached out and picked up a spear, carefully groped for the spear body, and said with a smile: "It's indeed a good thing, but you have also seen it, my clan has only this little bit of people left, if you want too many people, I'm afraid..."
Yuri smiled and raised his head at Rustle, who waved his hand again, boom... Nearly 2,000 gold coins slowly fell from Hasdel's wrist to the ground, and soon, the gold coins piled up into a small mountain of gold.
Yuri smiled: "I know, you Black Forest also circulate gold coins, and the value is not low, these are enough for these people in your tribe to eat for a few years. β
The old man smiled: "Adults are so knowledgeable, but if I am greedy, I can prepare up to 10 people for adults, of course, I promise, these 10 people are the best existing children of my clan, they are familiar with the environment of the black forest, they are familiar with the dangers in the black forest, and they are all deaf and clear-sighted, of course, adults can also choose by themselves, but the number is only 10 people at most..."
Yuri also secretly scolded the old fox in his heart, but said with a smile: "Haha, I can trust the old man, I believe you won't cheat me... Right!"
The old man seemed to realize something, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I am not so confused that I want to exchange the lives of the entire tribe for this little thing. β
Yuri nodded, and turned towards Invincible, followed by Hasdel.
The old man saw that Yuri seemed to be about to leave, so he spoke: "Since the adults have come to our tribe, we are here, not as good as outside, but there are still some good things, if the adults don't dislike it, you might as well stay here for one night, let us show a little affection." β
Yuri paused, his eyes turned to Rustel, and he saw the look of interest in Rustel's eyes, so he turned to look at the old man and said, "Thank you, old leader, don't you say, I really don't feel it yet, but now I feel a little tired, so I'll be cheeky to stay and experience it?"
The old man smiled when he heard this: "Haha, this is our honor..."
At the same time, in an unknown mountain range on the outskirts of the Black Rain Swamp, thousands of construction teams are busy in full swing, and unlike the laborers from the outside, their ankles are wearing a kind of red shackles without chains, and their expressions are the same, numb and confused.
They carried some cut stone bricks on their backs or in their arms, and marched in a long line towards the inner side of the valley, on the inner side of the valley was a magnificent castle built against the mountain, the castle was only half completed, its attached towers and walls had not yet been completed, and the long queue of laborers carrying supplies extended from the bottom of the hill to the interior of the castle, through the inner wall of the castle, and then up there was a completed complex of buildings, in the middle of the large but dark hall ground, there was a long table with 10 huge stone chairs on either side of the table, which was obviously a meeting roomγγγ
At this moment, there are only three people in the living room, the main seat is an old man, two people are sitting on the left and right seats, and the person on the left side is still carrying a scroll of drawings in his hand, he is pointing to the open drawings at the moment to explain something, "My lord, at your request, the main part of the drawings has been completed, and only the watchtower, as well as eight arrow towers and part of the city wall are being intensified. β
The person on the right answered: "My lord, this kind of leg cuffs you provided are really easy to use...
