Because of the pressure of the defense, Duke had to give up the core and important parts of the hydraulic plant before. Although theoretically there are no people in the hydroelectric factory, the Ice Demon should not be interested in this place anymore.

But the Ice Devils are intelligent beings after all, and Duke can't guarantee that they don't understand the importance of the Hydro Factory to Stormcastle, and if they know that the Hydro Factory produces everything Stormcastle needs, destroying the enemy's production capacity is definitely a very critical strategic action.

But now there's a way to get the best of both worlds, and that's to have the Wave tribe stationed in the hydro factory to act as a guard for Stormkee.

As mentioned before, the Ice Demons are not interested in the Sea Clan, because their magical assimilation ritual only has an effect on human infants and young children, and has no effect on the Sea Clan.

And the ice demons themselves are not numerous, and the main reason why they attack the human fortress is to grab as many human babies as possible to expand their number as much as possible. Otherwise, according to their own reproduction rate, it is estimated that it is not as good as a population like elves, whose fertility numbers are about to collapse.

If there is no one to defend the hydro factory, there is no loss anyway, and it can still cause a lot of damage to the opponent, and the ice demon may really be interested in destroying one. But once they had the Sea Clan's defenses, it was almost impossible for these Ice Demons to attack a place of little value to them at the risk of losing their troops.

Therefore, letting the Sea Clan defend the hydro factory not only provides them with a certain amount of fortifications, but also avoids the destruction of the ice demons when they attack, which can be called a way to kill two birds with one stone.

"Fasqi, since you have returned to Stormcastle, it is naturally my responsibility to ensure the safety of the entire Wave Tribe. Now that the entire hydroelectric plant has been emptied, there was no problem with the craftsmen and the garrison to accommodate a 10,000-strong man. ”

"But you don't have to worry about not being able to accommodate the entire Wave Tribe, in order to prevent the sneak attack on the hydroelectric factory from happening again, we have made very tight underwater fortifications in the entire Seine River Basin, I believe that even if the Shark Tribe attacks, they will definitely not be able to get benefits, and they should be able to ensure the safety of the entire Wave Tribe." ”

Hearing Duke say that he would temporarily give up the hydroelectric factory to the Sea Clan for defense, Fasqi's face was obviously much better. She was naturally very familiar with the hydro factory, and the first time the Wave Tribe came into contact with Storm Castle was because they wanted to attack the hydro factory.

Now that he has enough fortifications to withstand the attack of the Shark Tribe, Fasqi naturally has nothing to say. Her previous threats were only for the survival of the tribe, and if she could ensure the safety of the tribe, she didn't want to rebel against Duke, or make a move to endanger Storm Castle.

Because Fasqi understands that only by clinging to Stormcastle can the Wave Tribe gain a foothold in the Sea of Death in the future, and even grow stronger. 、

"Lord Yes, as long as we can ensure the survival of the Wave Tribe, we are still your subjects. ”

Hearing Fasqi's words, Duke only smiled faintly on his face, and then walked towards Fasqi step by step.

Duke's sudden move made the atmosphere at the scene tense instantly, and some soldiers on both sides even subconsciously held weapons.

"Faski, now that I've become my subject, I hope this is the last time. If it happens again, then I assure you that the entire Wave Tribe will have no place in the Sea of Death!"

As Duke's cold warning words came out, Fasqi's face changed instantly, and she looked at Duke's eyes, and saw an incomparably strong murderous aura and anger in them.

"I understand my lordship, the Wave Tribe will always be loyal to you!"

After Fasqi said this, he directly gritted his teeth, and then lowered his head deeply. And the fish-man warriors behind her also knelt down on one knee in front of Duke at this moment, apologizing and surrendering for their previous actions.

Seeing Fasqi's move, Duke also understood that she was a smart person, otherwise she would not have been able to lead the entire Wave Tribe and have been fighting for so many years against such a powerful Wild Shark Tribe.

Of course, if you give a slap, you will naturally have to give a sweet date, so that the Wave tribe can understand that following Storm Fort in the future will also be able to eat and drink spicy. Duke promised that after the Storm Fortress was defended this time, he would expand the entire trade market and make it a marine city, and later become a permanent residence for the entire Wave tribe.

The Wave tribe was naturally overjoyed by Duke's commitment, and their goal all along was to have a territory of their own on the mainland. Although they are fish-people, they are also creatures with a high civilization, and the seabed, which is inconvenient for production and forging, is not the best place to live after all.

After dealing with the affairs of the Wave Tribe, the 100,000 fishmen began to march towards the hydroelectric factory. At the same time, Duke gave them a constraint, that is, they could use the entire hydraulic factory site and defensive equipment, but they could not destroy the contents inside, and it was better not to move at all.

Fasqi also understands what the hydroelectric factory does, and maybe in the future, the weapons and equipment of the entire Wave tribe will have to be produced by the hydroelectric factory. So she assured Duke that she wouldn't damage any of the plant's equipment.

Returning from the trade market, Duke saw the last convoy of shorelines return to Stormfort. This marked the return of the wounded and fallen soldiers of the 1st Regiment of the Storm Army.

However, because all of Stormcastle's capacity was used to transport wounded soldiers, the dwarves didn't migrate so quickly. Even if they were all lightly armed, the distance between Dwarven City and Storm Castle was nearly ten kilometers away, and it was not something that could be reached in a short period of time. After all, this world still relies on its legs to move, unlike later generations with various prototypes of vehicles.

In order to buy time for the dwarves to enter the Storm Castle, the reconnaissance density of the war sheep cavalry has also been greatly increased, and even some war sheep knights have ventured into the depths of the monster valley in order to provide their clansmen with sufficient warning time, just to find out the specific location and time of the ice demons.

And as they got deeper, they finally saw some other creatures besides the Ice Demon. The most numerous of them are humanoid monsters with gray-dark skin and rubber-skin. They had sharp claws, fangs as sharp as beasts, and spoke in a rapid, weeping voice.

According to the records of the classics on the mainland, this creature should be a creature called a ghoul in hell. With the appearance of the ghoul, the speculation that the gates of hell in the Valley of Monsters were opened has also been confirmed!
