Chapter 438: Opportunity
"It's true that this road is dedicated to smuggling, but our main target for trade is Blackpool City. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info and the inside of the dark elves is not just a black pool city!" Cacello said with a sigh.
"More than one Blackpool City, I see!" After hearing Caselo's explanation, Luo Sheng immediately reacted, realizing that he had made a mistake there before.
In his previous life, when Luo Sheng entered the dark region, the entire dark elf race had been integrated under the will of the spider queen and became a powerful race that was unanimous with the outside world. Although the competition between the major cities in the interior is still very fierce, and the conspiracy is continuous, but according to the requirements of the spider queen, the battle between the families will basically not break through the bottom line, the smell of blood is much less, and the degree of internal friction is not very large.
But now the dark elves that Rasheng will face are not a whole that has been gathered, but a scattered force centered on major cities, where various forces fight each other to strengthen themselves and please the evil god Queen Spider.
At this stage, the battle between the Dark Elves is sometimes more brutal than against other aliens. Therefore, it is very logical that other dark elf city forces send assassins and thieves to rob the smuggling routes of Blackpool City. Especially when it comes to some special precious materials, it is even more ruthless.
"It seems that the will of the spider queen has not really come yet, and the situation is more complicated than expected! After realizing the current situation, Luo Sheng was a lot more sure in his heart.
On this trip to the Dark Regions, although Luo Sheng was confident that with his strength and all kinds of treasures on his body, he would basically not capsize, and he was also very sure that he would get the claws of the beasts, but other bigger goals, such as investigating the conspiracy of the Chaos Flame and the Dark Elves, and even causing some damage to the cooperation between the two families, did not have much confidence. After all, after being unified, the dark elves were extremely well guarded in all aspects, coupled with the weirdness and strength of the spider queen's will, it was difficult to set off any storms without the strength of the true legend level.
But when he realized that the dark elves were not being strongly unified at the moment, and the will of the spider queen had not really descended from the kingdom of God to the dark region, Luo Sheng's mind immediately became much more active.
Although judging from the previous operation of the spider mother's thorn to join the Chaos Flame, the spider queen has begun to intervene in the affairs of the Ymir continent, and it is not far from the real complete arrival. But if the Queen Spider wants to completely unify the forces of the entire dark elves, it is not something that can be done in a while.
In the previous thousands of years, although the spider queen relied on bloody sacrifices and divide and conquer to maintain her influence on the entire race of dark elves, the seal of the Arcane Empire was not an ornament after all, and the suppression of the spider queen also existed. Even if the spider queen relied on cruel and bloody methods to weaken the influence of the seal on herself to a certain extent, the power that was really fed back to the believers through the faith channel was still much, much more than normal.
In this situation of low proportion of faith investment and power feedback, the sacrificial lineage, which originally had absolute control over the dark elves before the fall of the Arcane Empire, inevitably weakened to a certain extent, and its status was no longer as exclusive as before. Now if the Queen of Spiders wants to rely on another oracle, it is simply unrealistic to directly urge the entire dark elf clan.
Therefore, in the next period of time, not only the major city factions of the dark elves will compete with each other, striving to gain a more advantageous position in the process of unification. Moreover, the sacrificial faction, which regains the support of the spider queen and will greatly increase its strength, will also have conflicts with other factions that originally shared some of the rights, such as the dark elf spellcaster and the top warriors.
After all, the sacrificial faction adheres to the will of the spider queen, and must want to restore its original status of being the only one and controlling everything. And those groups who originally relied on their own strength to obtain some power and great benefits will never obediently admit defeat, hand over the power and interests in their hands, and then become slaves of the sacrificial family.
You must know that in the Ymir Continent, there is no easy person who can rely on his own strength to rise to a high position, especially in the dark elves, a race with cruel internal fighting, those who can snatch the power are even more resolute and ruthless. Such people value power and freedom very much, and the fear of the gods is actually quite limited. Therefore, even if the sacrifice faction is supported by the will of the spider queen, the process of **** will definitely not be too easy, and a dragon fight is inevitable.
And this situation is undoubtedly an extremely beneficial thing for Luo Sheng, who is ready to fish in troubled waters and stir up the storm. Although the situation will be extremely complicated due to the intertwining of various forces and the continuous intrigue within the dark elves, there are also many opportunities to take advantage of. If done properly, many things that could not have been done will undoubtedly have a lot more possibilities.
"Then don't you care about Heitan City, but we will send them materials to help them improve their strength!" After understanding, Luo Sheng continued to ask while nibbling on the scorpion skewers.
"Originally, Blackpool City would still be in charge. But in the past two years, I don't know why, but I rarely sent people out to inspect. It is said that the underground black market has communicated with Heitan City, but it has no effect. In the end, we took the risk. Whether you can keep the goods or not can only depend on your own ability. Every time we deliver goods, we are fighting with our lives, and over the years, these brothers of mine are about to change again. Cacello observed Luo Sheng's expression and sighed helplessly.
While smuggling back and forth between Blackpool City and the Town Fort is extremely lucrative, the investment and risk are equally staggering. Forming a caravan, not to mention the cost of buying all kinds of goods, just to buy access permits and open up various joints, is enough to discourage most people.
Compared with the financial investment, Cacello is more worried about the risk of smuggling. The smuggling of goods between these two places, almost every smuggling, is met with more than one attack. Sometimes with good luck, the attackers are weaker and the losses are not too great. But sometimes if you're unlucky, your team is likely to suffer heavy casualties or even be wiped out. The caravan that began at about the same time as Cacelo had disbanded or been wiped out in less than a decade. Although Cacello's team is strong, almost half of the personnel have been replaced.
"Then Captain Cacello, why don't you consider quitting? With your net worth and strength, you can buy a fief and become a nobleman in any country, right?" Luo Sheng's expression remained unchanged, and he still responded casually.
