Chapter 707: It's Black Under the Light
"Where are you, why can't I see it?" Zeratul looked around with his hands on the pergola, but could find nothing but grass, rubble, and the ruins of a past lookout post. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he looked at Zhao Mai suspiciously.
"My question is whether you have cavalry? Idiot, don't you even understand what the question is?" Zhao Mai flicked his wrist, and he didn't know where to "transform" a giant bow. The height of the orc Blackfoot is about one meter nine, and this bow is also limited in height compared to him. The entire bow is made of unknown metal, even the bowstring. Zhao Mai pulled out an arrow made of ice, put it on the bow, and suddenly rounded it.
The greatest advantage of the ice arrow is that it melts, and after a while it becomes water, and no one can tell who killed it. Before Zeratu could stop it, Zhao Mai shot the arrow. The bowstring vibrated with a loud buzz that stabbed Zeratul's ears and eyes.
"The cavalry is ours, especially the one who rides the horse is ours, and the one who rides the wolf is basically ours!"
"Shot dead. As soon as Zhao Mai's hand flipped, the longbow disappeared, and his hand turned into a spear again.
"Who are you fooling? The arrow flew fast, but I could still see it, and it flew behind the little hill. But can your eyes be crooked, and you can aim and shoot an arrow across a hill to hit a cavalryman on the move?"
"Yes, that's right. Zhao Mai waved his hand and snorted, "How arrogant it must be to use human cavalry on Mordor's territory to find death! ”
"You! you haven't seen the commander yet, you're like this, and let me thank you?" Zeratul shook his head: "I think you're arrogant and marching on the road to death! Evil will definitely be defeated by justice, so you might as well move to my side." ”
"On your side, that sounds so ironic. You're still my slave. Zhao Mai was disdainful. He punched himself in the chest with his fist and said, "Come, use your righteousness to defeat my evil." ”
"Now is not the time, I will take you to the commander, and then take my sister back to a safe place, and then I will come to defeat you. ”
"The true Zeratul should learn to see all people from a holistic perspective, including the enemy, especially the enemy. You're still too tender. ”
Zhao Mai used various methods to stimulate Zeratu along the way, taunting and hitting his self-confidence, not without reason. There is a strange power wrapped around Zeratul's body, which seems to be the will of the bright world, but it is different from that of Thrandis, and it is not the same as Zeratul's before. This power carries beauty and order, but it is not good at justice. Zhao Mai smelled the smell of revenge, and also smelled the desire for power.
Revenge and power do not have good or bad qualities in themselves, and how to pursue them defines good and evil. It's like "evil is beheaded", it's just an attitude, and it's never justice. Zeratul's will to the world is a bit like "revenge against the dark forces at all costs", Zeratu thinks it is good and righteous, but Zhao Mai has a different view.
Therefore, he is constantly tempting to look at this reaction of the world's will from all aspects, so he does not need to actually contact the "Commander" Taleon or the elf "King" Celebripeng, Zhao Mai can probably understand his character. It is better to judge their words than their deeds, and each of their actions will bring different characteristics to the will of the world.
When Zhao Mai first entered this world, there was no history behind him and no "label" on his body, so when the world's will was entangled, the "attributes" were very clear, black, white, righteous and evil. But as time goes on and events unfold, these properties merge like dyes and become more intricate. In Buddhist terms, this is called cause and effect.
Zhao Mai doesn't know how to cultivate immortals, but this doesn't affect him from learning the wisdom of other families. After analyzing the will of the world with the concepts and methods of cause and effect, many problems are easy to explain. After he had probed Zeratul's volitional traits, he stopped "stabbing" him.
The two of them left the plains of Nurn and entered the northern part of Mordor, and if they continued north, they would be the plains of Godalos and Mount Doom, and they would be facing Sauron's lair. Fortunately, they turned to the east on the Ash Plains, an area covered with sand and uncultivateable.
Even orcs don't have a chance to live here, but there are gray-green goblins and fallen gray dwarves in the underground. They are also the servants of the demon king Sauron, but their status is a whole class shorter than that of the orcs, and they are not less tired of mining and digging wells.
The underground situation here is very complicated, and it is very close to the dark eye of Sauron. The most annoying thing is that it is known for not growing grass here, and if you come here, everything can grow here, so it is especially easy to arouse suspicion. In addition, the airspace curse here is much stronger than that of southern Mordor, and the danger of the monitoring bug flying over is very high, and it will die at any time because of the curse. If they explode and burn in the air and arouse Zoro's curiosity, it will be worth the cost.
Therefore, Zhao Mai's monitoring of this area is very weak. It's better to spend time here figuring out how to lay the fungus blanket pipe down Doomsday Mountain. But then again, only the fungus blanket passed, and the gardener dragon, the monitoring insects and the worker insects did not dare to pass, and that actually did not play a role in intelligence gathering.
At this time, it is better to use the old methods, such as setting up warehouses in Doom Mountain and the Evil Black Tower to receive and sell the Legion's luncheon meat and bread, and let the cunning goblins collect some information. The Ringwraith also gathered in the Evil Black Tower and Doom Mountain, especially Doom Mountain, and it was impossible to quietly get past their surveillance.
"Zeratul, won't the Ringwraith come to patrol with you?"
"How did the Ringwraiths come from? Their power is terrifying and terrifying, and only specially bred ghost warhorses can carry them around. The ghost war horse doesn't like the environment here, so the ring spirit doesn't come here, at most he only takes a circle around the periphery and leaves. ”
"Even if they like the environment, you're going to make them dislike, right?"
"So to speak. The commander has gathered many talented people who are able to accomplish magical things, as you will soon see. ”
All the way to the east, after eighty miles of Gobi Jedi, what appeared in front of Zhao Mai was a grassland. Although the grass is short and yellow, and grows sparsely, it is still vegetation. You must know that on the west side of the line, the Gobi is full of gravel and sand, and some terrible fissures are constantly emerging from the underground poisonous gas, and some other cavities without poisonous gas are basically the entrances and exits of goblin and degenerate dwarf settlements. Even creatures such as spiders, scorpions, centipedes, and lizards, which come and go from these burrows, keep their main living areas underground, and rarely come up above the ground.
On the other hand, there is the appearance of a normal natural environment, and even the breath of the natural force.
