"It's barren here!" was the first thought that came to Siassi's mind as she walked into the small village in front of her.

The whole village was inhabited by lizardmen, fishmen, and half-crab people, and the number of people was about a thousand, and Siassi took a closer look and found that most of the people left in the village were children and women, and there were no old people or young men, which aroused her curiosity. I don't know if it's out of fear of the Naga tribe, when Xiassi and the others entered the village, the younger women all hid, and the children also watched Xiassi and them from a distance in fear, and didn't dare to approach them anyway, which made it a little difficult for Xiassi to find some people to understand the local situation.

"It's strange, why aren't there young men and old men here?" Siass asked Watson next to her in a whisper, but she really couldn't find a decent person to ask, so she simply communicated directly with her companion.

"Actually, the situation should be very simple. Watson sneered, and also replied in a low voice: "Don't forget the many ambushes we have received along the way, and then look at the eyes of these guys, hmph, under those humble and humble eyes, but the hatred that can't be concealed! As for the old man, Xiassi, you are too kind-hearted, you must know that there are no large food gathering areas for hundreds of kilometers around this kind of place, and it is impossible to hunt and plant, and it is good that this bit of food can feed the young people, and those old people are probably already ......."

For this answer, Xiassi's heart suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, she suddenly realized why the rebellion here has never really stopped since ancient times, it is precisely because life is very hard, so once there are careerists with some small favors, the young people here will follow them to rebel without hesitation, and once defeated, they will flee back to their hometown, unless the Naga people completely cleanse this area again, otherwise the seeds of rebellion will be passed on from generation to generation through the continuation of the bloodline.

"Smack!" a Naga attendant beside Siassi grabbed the lizardman boy who tried to sneak close to her, slapped him to the ground, and then scolded loudly: "Bastard, you dare to steal from us, don't you want to live!" The lizardman boy curled up on the ground, neither distinguishing nor begging for mercy, even if he was hit a few times and spat blood, he would never let out any moans.

Seeing that the lizardman boy was a little pitiful, and he didn't succeed after all, Xiassi said, "Forget it!" With the order of the head of the family, the senior warrior of Naga let go of the arm holding the lizardman boy and muttered: "If it weren't for Miss's soft-heartedness, I would definitely kill you with a knife today!" The freed lizardman boy didn't get up immediately, but Theassie noticed that his gaze fell on the food bag of her retinue, and her only contemplation was to guess the other's thoughts from the eager eyes for food, so she beckoned and motioned for the retinue to give her the food bag.

"Take it!" Siassi bent down and stuffed the food bag into the lizardman boy's hand, this action surprised the young man, he was used to seeing the Naga people in high motion, but he had never seen such a kind and old Naga girl in front of him, so the lizardman boy blushed and lowered his head, but his fingers grabbed the food bag handed by Siassi.

"Let's go. Siassie straightened up and said to her entourage, "There is no value of staying here, let's move on!" After saying this, Siassie hurriedly left here with her entourage, but she consciously turned her head to look at the lizardman boy, and found that although he was already hungry, he did not eat it immediately, but clutched the bag of food and turned into the back of a reef, maybe there were more important people in his heart who needed that bag of food, right?

Leaving this small village that didn't even have a name, Xiassi and his party hurried again, although the whole adventure team was not very numerous, but it was very well equipped, not only did they each have seahorse mounts, but the whole team was followed by four crab carts full of supplies, although this would slow down the speed of the whole team's walking, but walking on the submarine plain without a supply station, this little negative impact was nothing.

Sias sat on the seahorse mount, her eyes always flashed over the face of the lizardman boy, I don't know why Sias suddenly felt a little disgusted with the high-pressure policy of the empire, she couldn't understand why a race should rely on oppressing other races to maintain its rule, although Sias is also one of the biggest beneficiaries of this policy, but at least in her heart, at this time, there are still some different ideas.

"Be careful, there's a large coral sea ahead!" Watson, who was beside Siassi, suddenly reminded Siassi, who was obviously a little distracted, "Please give the order to detour, we are not in a hurry." ”

Siassi came back to her senses, she smiled at Wa Sheng, and said loudly: "The whole team ...... around" Before Siassi finished this order, she heard a shout from the coral sea in front of her, and then hundreds of lizardmen with tattered and rusty weapons surged out.

"Enemy attack!" The sharp siren sounded over the entire team, and the adventurous team immediately stopped moving forward, and then the front end of the "one-line" formation used by the whole team began to circle backwards, and quickly merged with the rear end of the team to form a "hollow-shaped" defensive formation, which tightly protected the leader of the entire team, Xiassi, and a large number of supplies at the rear of the team.

"Food, food!" the lizardmen rushed towards with a red light in their eyes, waving their weapons, their ambush was completely unruly, and the whole formation was even more chaotic when they charged, not only did they not take care of each other, but they often slowed down or simply tripped over their own people because of their own collisions.

Sias Qian couldn't help but shake her head again and again as she looked at the scene in the distance, she couldn't help but say to herself: "Is this also a rebel? I think it's more like a group of hungry and crazy ......" Siassi's words only went to this point, because she saw a familiar figure in the group of lizardmen in the distance, the lizardman who tried to steal food but was knocked to the ground, the young man who left with food despite his hunger, her expression immediately stiffened: "How can this be, how can he be among these people?"
