Confirming the hostile relationship with Ilminster and the Harpists League for a long time to come, Zuosi soon left the Friendly Arm.

However, instead of heading south with the Sons of Baal to Belgoth, a town east of Candlekeep, he continued north past Baldur's Gate to the Dragonspear Castle next to the Supreme Wasteland.

Unlike the last time I visited, it was a little desolate and dilapidated, but at a glance, both the walls and the arrow towers have been clearly renovated and reinforced.

There were about one or two hundred heavily armed mercenaries standing on top, watching the surroundings vigilantly, and occasionally a small group on horseback rushed out of the castle to patrol the vast expanse of farmland that had been carved out around it.

Some farmers are dutifully tending to the crops, while others are driving herds of sheep, cattle and horses with dogs to nibble on the lush weeds and shrubs.

Located on the east side of the castle near the river and stream, there is even a huge artificial lake with an area equivalent to more than 30 football fields, and many ducks, geese, and wild water birds can be seen flocking on the water.

You don't need to ask to know that this must have used the power of the Oranri multi-headed dragon, plus those goblins, orcs, and half-orc slaves who were captured back dug up little by little with tools.

In terms of scale, the current Dragonspear Castle seems to have about a few thousand permanent residents.

There is even a dedicated goblin slave who is responsible for building houses and walls, repairing roads, and doing some dirty and tiring work such as cleaning up garbage and unclogging sewers.

At its current state, perhaps in a few decades a new city will emerge as an important overland trade hub connecting Baldur's Gate to Waterdeep.

What's more, there is unowned and undeveloped land within hundreds of kilometers of the surrounding area.

Whoever is willing to settle here will immediately get a full hundred acres of farmland that had been cultivated and roughly cultivated by goblin slaves, as well as a decent log cabin.

If you want to be a herder, you can do that.

The castle ranch area is home to a large number of small rock horses, long-haired sheep and other domesticable ungulate herbivores, which can be obtained immediately by paying a partial deposit.

The first two types of livestock are all specialties of the Supreme Wasteland, and they have been captured by a lot of them when cleaning up the monsters around the castle before, at least hundreds of thousands.

Although some were killed and some were sold to merchants, they still retain a very impressive scale.

Among them, the rock horse is a very good pack animal, not only has excellent stamina, but also is very easy to feed, dairy products, leather and made of dried meat are also good goods.

The wool of the long-haired sheep has been the main fist product of the Dragon Spear Castle in recent years, and the textile merchants of both Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate have rushed to ask for it.

Especially after the airship route to this place is opened, it can even be sold further afield to Luskan, Neverwinter, and the Silver Moon Alliance.

Due to the proximity of these cities to the extreme cold, the demand for wool and warm clothing is much greater than that of Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate.

The original venture shareholders, led by Marshall, have already made money.

A small group of ambitious people even want to take over the eastern wilderness as pasture in order to raise more long-haired sheep to meet the growing demand for trade.

They had completely forgotten that the Supreme Wasteland was not a safe place.

Ever since the Battle of the Crown, the ancient elven kingdom of Myerita was completely destroyed by the pre-Settlement Dark Elves with a terrifying magic, and all its inhabitants were wiped out, and it has been a paradise for monsters and beasts.

Whether it's trolls, orcs, goblins, snakemen and lizardmen hiding in the depths of the swamp, or other carnivorous beasts such as wolves, bears, tigers, and leopards, they are enough to pose a deadly threat to outsiders who dare to venture into the area.

The reason why the area around the Dragon Spear Castle is relatively safe now is entirely because of the large-scale clearance carried out with the help of the Orlan Li multi-headed dragon before.

But the problem is that they no longer have the Oranri Hydra, a super trump card that can deter all potential enemies.

If you continue to rush forward with a large-scale enclosure, once you anger the powerful dragons and the large monster tribe of more than 10,000 people in the wasteland, the consequences will be absolutely catastrophic.

Among them, the farmland, villages, pastures and herds that had been reclaimed outside the city walls with great difficulty would all be wiped out in the war.

Compared with the greed of other shareholders, Marshall, who regarded himself as the manager, always kept a clear head and a cool head.

He knew very well how the prosperity and stability of the Dragon Spear Castle came about, so not long ago, he worked tirelessly across half of the West Coast to Luskan to attend the meeting of the lords of the Northlands, just to meet with the nominal lord Zuo Si, and respectfully reported the progress of the work, and at the same time asked for instructions on what to do next, and handed over the income obtained through accumulation and development in the past few years.

Yes!

This wise man did not swallow up all his wealth, including land and taxes, as many short-sighted fools do.

He only took out about 30% to 40% and divided it with the shareholders who started the business together.

Marshall understood that the reason why he had been able to have a smooth ride over the years, and that there were no other forces rushing to find trouble, was rooted in Zuo Si's reputation for murder and his unscrupulous ruthlessness and brutality in dealing with the enemy.

Without this umbrella, not to mention the Santarin Society, the Dragoncult, and some other evil organizations, the monsters in the Supreme Wasteland and the Troll Roaring Forest alone would be enough to make the Dragonspear Castle unable to eat and walk around.

Not to mention that underneath the castle, there is also a portal that connects to the first level of Bato's Hell.

Later, when Zuo Si became the lord of the ninth layer of the new life, a powerful and terrifying devil found Marshall almost immediately and signed a contract with him.

Since then, the two sides have not had any conflicts between the well water and the river water.

The Devils have even set up a town near the portal, allowing adventurers and merchants to trade with it, or to enter the hellish plane through the portal for a fee.

Others have come from the ground to the surface and become owners of taverns, inns, and shops.

Although in the beginning, these evil otherworldly creatures made everyone feel very uncomfortable, even intensely wary and hostile.

But as they spend more time together, many people discover that the devil is not as terrible as it is rumored.

Quite the opposite!

They often follow the rules and laws of the locality, are even more honest than many unscrupulous profiteers, and offer a lot of magical services and soul contracts.

In particular, many desperate outlaws are very willing to sell their souls in exchange for the protection of the devils, so as to avoid the enemy who catches up with them from breaking their stomachs and disintegrating them on the spot.

In addition, the presence of the devil means that soul trading is possible here, and there are specialties from Bato's Hell for sale.

So instead of shrinking, trade has become more prosperous than before.

Due to the practice of limited slavery (only certain races can be used as slaves), many service establishments are very flowery and perverted.

Lizardmen and snake maids, orc maids, drow elf noblewomen, orc strong men, and other scenery that cannot be seen in other cities can all be experienced here.

It's very attractive to a large number of guys who want to try it with a curious mentality, as well as aristocracy, rich businessmen and hungry ladies who are different from ordinary people.

Due to the lack of contraception, there are still many mixed-race children of one or two years old, two or three years old, running around on the streets.

In addition, savage and bloody gladiatorial fights and beast fights are also the featured repertoire of Dragon Spear Castle.

Because slavery has been completely abolished in the southern Karin shirt, it is only natural that this is the only place on the west coast of the entire continent of Faren where you can enjoy and experience similar thrills.

The high-level devils and some evil mages have also made the trolls more intelligent by transforming them, and have trained many skilled troll slave gladiators.

Because of their ability to recover, it doesn't matter if they are seriously injured or even disabled.

Anyway, after a period of time, you will be able to be active in the arena again, satisfying the appetite of those spectators who are eager to see bloody killings.

In fact, the current Dragonspear Castle is far beyond Marshall's control.

Whether it was the powerful hell devils or the growing number of evil camp mages, he felt like he was sitting on the crater of a volcano and could be lifted into the sky at any time.

Not to mention the recent emergence of a large number of organized dark elves from nowhere, and a leader who claims to be the Seven Sisters of the Northlands, Aoi Lu, has asked Dragonspear Castle to draw an area for him to build an underground city, claiming that this matter has been approved by Lord Zuosi.

So far, the number of these dark elves has reached the scale of thousands.

Although he has not shown any aggression so far, it has already made Marshall feel uncomfortable.

The increasingly complex situation made the middle-aged man from a business trip realize that his ability was no longer enough to meet the serious challenges.

Fortunately!

As a small transport airship loaded with supplies and tools descended from the sky, he finally let out a long breath, walked up quickly, bowed deeply to his sworn allegiance to his master, and sighed with relief: "Lord Soth! You're finally here! ”

"Why do you seem so tired? Are dark circles still so heavy? Men over the age of forty should be a little more restrained in some aspects, otherwise be careful of overindulgence and sudden death. ”

Zuo Si looked at the gray face in surprise and couldn't help but give a few words of advice.

You must know that the last time we met in Luskan, the other party was still full of red faces, with a posture of being in good health and eating a lot of food.

But I haven't seen it for a while, and it's almost half a foot into the coffin.

Although the wealthy people in the Feilun Continent are generally more lustful, in many places where polygamy or polyandry and concubinery are allowed, it is a common thing to marry ten or eight wives.

Even in areas where monogamy is practiced, it is common to keep lovers outside, and it is no longer the case that they patronize the red light district.

No way.

This physiological need for reproduction stems from instinct and genes, and it does not mean that morality, law, and the like alone can be completely banned.

But the problem is that in the process of indulging desires, there are very few people who play themselves to death.

Most powerful people are still more concerned about their physical health, and when they feel unwell, they immediately call in a priest to treat them.

"Temperance? Overindulgence? ”

Marshall was stunned for a moment, and then explained with a smile: "Do you think I fooled around with women every night to become what I am now?"

No!

I've been hurt by the dark elves, the devils, and the mages who spend their days in their houses and don't know what dangerous magic experiments they're doing.

In particular, the Dark Elves, who have gathered more and more recently, have occupied a large area under the castle leading to the Dark Realm.

Some adventurers found themselves building fortifications along a strip of stalagmites and caves.

Your Excellency, you should know best how bad the reputation of the Dark Elves in the surface world is.

I was very worried that they would suddenly burst out of the ground and go on a killing spree. ”

But Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly and comforted: "Don't worry, these are not the evil drow who traditionally believes in the spider goddess Rose, but the believers of the dark girl Elistri.

One of them counts as one, and they are all fugitives driven mad by the extremely oppressive social atmosphere and religious persecution of the traditional dark elf city.

These people simply want a home, a place to live and thrive.

On top of that, when they build a city underground, they can not only serve as an outpost for Dragonspear Castle to defend against threats from the Shadows, but also use it as a base to expand trade with the underworld.

Imagine how many merchants, adventurers, and travelers it would attract if it were one of the few markets on the West Coast where you could get the produce of the darker regions? ”

"That has to be if there is no trouble. You must know that their appearance alone has already made the Moon Elf and Wild Elf villages living nearby very nervous, and even formally submitted a protest to me. ”

As he said this, a helpless expression appeared on Marshall's face.

He is not a qualified politician, and he does not know how to deal with this hatred, hostility and exclusion that has lasted for tens of thousands of years.

"You don't have to worry about this kind of thing, just leave it to the priests of Aoi Lu and Elisetsu to solve it.

In addition, the Dragon Spear Castle now has even devils, and it is necessary to be afraid of a group of fleeing dark elves?

If the elven tribes can't stand to live with their former enemies, let them migrate on their own.

Remember, a good ruler must listen to the interests of all sides, but he must not meet all the demands endlessly.

Occasionally, coercive means are used to force them to abandon their unrealistic illusions and submit to the overall arrangement.

Don't think of politics as if you were doing business and you can bargain, and don't think that your policies will satisfy everyone.

Sometimes, as a decision-maker, it's all about sacrificing the interests of a few to benefit more people. ”

Zuo Si expressed his attitude very simply and directly.

There is no doubt that the opposition of a few elven villages is not worth mentioning at all when it comes to breaking the monopoly of the spider goddess Rose with some dark elves returning to the surface to break the monopoly of the spider goddess Rose.

What's more, it is very likely that the elven god system is behind the incident.

A bitter smile appeared on Marshall's face and he laughed at himself: "My lord, I am only a businessman, not a qualified ruler.

When he chose to stay and rebuild the Dragon Spear Castle, he just didn't want to see all his investment go to naught.

But as the stalls got bigger, more complex, and more challenging, I found myself no longer able to manage the land.

If I could, I would like to give up my current power and continue to be my own businessman. ”

"Are you really willing to give it all up?"

Zuo Si asked with interest staring at the middle-aged man's eyes.

"To be honest, it's a bit reluctant.

After all, the prosperity of Dragon Spear Castle is my hard work.

But because of this, I don't want to see it go from prosperity to decline under my rule.

As a businessman, I can sense that you are doing something unprecedented and great enough.

The trade alliances, in particular, that span the west coast of the entire continent are a historic moment to be remembered by the people who live on this land.

So I think handing over power is the best option.

I don't want to suddenly become your enemy or a stumbling block in your path. ”

When he said this, Marshall's tone was full of seriousness and sincerity.

He was not a fool, and he had learned a little about the situation through the merchants and adventurers who traveled from north to south, and understood the meaning of the upheaval that was taking place on the West Coast.

"You're smart, much smarter than most people I've ever met.

Well, I accept your resignation.

Not now, though, in a while.

In the meantime, you will remain the apparent ruler of the place, but I will send a deputy to assist you in resolving any problems or troubles you encounter.

In addition to this, I allow you and the shareholders who started the business with you to keep your existing land and property, and give you some compensation when appropriate. ”

After a little consideration, Zuo Si quickly gave a promise.

After all, the location of Dragonspear Castle was too important, and it was absolutely impossible for him to let it continue to maintain the status quo after unifying the entire West Coast.

Instead, use the portal to build a large trading city that connects Batow's Hell and the Netherlands at the same time.

Originally, he had planned to wait until he had other things done, and then find an opportunity to talk to Marshall alone, and exchange his wealth and noble titles for the other party to hand over power.

But who knows, this businessman is much smarter than expected, and he actually took the initiative to hand over power in advance.

"I'm far from smart, I'm a little sharper than everyone else. Oh, by the way, you're here for those drows, right? ”

Marshall glanced at the large quantities of food, tools, and building materials such as reinforced concrete, which were constantly being carried out of the airship's hold.

Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Yes." I promised Elystry that I would provide these dark elves with some supplies in the early days to make sure they could get through the first difficult times. If you don't mind, can you tell me where Aodew is? I have some things to talk to her about individually. ”

"Lady Aoi Lu has already gone to the gathering place of those dark elves a few days ago, and has also purchased a large amount of grains, vegetables, dried meat, and dried fish, presumably leading them to build a new home." Marshall guessed in a tone of uncertainty that was not very sure.

"That's right, I also want to see how this group of dark girls are different from ordinary drows. Do you want to come along? ”

Zuo Si smiled and sent an invitation to the Dragon Spear Castle Administrator beside him.

Marshall hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "No, no, no, I'll forget it."

The narrow passages and dark surroundings under the castle always made it difficult for me to breathe.

I'll tell you the truth, I've lived here for so many years, and I haven't been down once.

What's more, the goods you brought still need me to organize people to load and unload, and then transport them to the warehouse on the other side. ”

"Do you have claustrophobia? That's a shame. You must know that the world beneath the surface is actually far more exciting and interesting than most people think. ”

Anyway, Zuo Si didn't have any intention of forcing it, so he took Davidian, who had just returned from Silvermoon City not long ago, and walked straight towards the tunnel in the castle that connected to the underground.

Due to the last surprise attack by the devil, the place has been specially deepened and fortified, and from a distance it looks like a small independent fortress, surrounded by a full twenty soldiers day and night.

In the event of an intrusion, the gates are immediately lowered, completely sealing the entrance to the lower level and the surface, and sounding the alarm bell next to it.

On top of that, the original winding staircase passage has now been replaced by a lift.

Whether it is a person who goes down or a person who returns from an adventure, he must go through the elevator link, and there is no second way.

Zuosi and Davidian take an elevator into the underground with a team of adventurers.

The latter is obviously the kind of party that has been here for a long time, and after landing at the bottom, they immediately head to the tunnel on the west side, intending to hunt or capture some monsters and bring them back to the surface to sell for money.

Zuo Si chose the opposite path, heading towards the gathering place of the dark elves.

But before he could go far, a Deep Hell Purgatory Demon took the initiative to meet him with dozens of subordinates, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Supreme Great Master!" The lord of the ninth level of the new life! The Prince of Hell canonized by Asmodeus himself! Thy humble servant is here to be commanded. ”

"Are you one of my subordinates?"

Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, then stared at the other party and asked bluntly.

Because he doesn't remember giving a similar order.

"Yes.

My immediate supervisor was Madame Gramire, who served as the lord's secretary.

She asked me to capture the portal and make sure that the other lords could not take advantage of this passage to the continent of Feron.

Of course, I also have some traditional business here.

Although the number of souls obtained is not very large, I believe that it will definitely grow rapidly when we gain a firm foothold. ”

The Deep Hell Purgatory explained with a flattering smile on his face.

You must know that with his level, there was originally no chance to meet a great devil with a unique form like the Layer Lord.

Now that I have such an opportunity, I naturally want to do my best to perform (to put it bluntly, it is a hard slap on the back), at least leave a good impression, so as to pave the way for future promotion.

All the devils are out-and-out opportunists.

There are only three most important things in their lives.

One is to acquire more mortal souls through contracts;

One is to kill all the demons in sight;

And then there's getting promoted.

"Gramir? I see! ”

Zuo Si's mind instantly appeared the figure with blond hair and purple eyes, always wearing low-cut professional clothes, black socks and high heels.

Obviously, the reason why this pleasure demon with a very high status made such an arrangement should be because of his name hanging in the Dragon Spear Castle.

The first layer of Hell is not a safe place.

Whether it's Tiamat, the god of dragons, and her army of colored dragons, or the great demons who have been released by the Lords of Hell, or the demonic armies that rush through the abyss from time to time, once they cross the portal, they can easily raze the Dragonspear Castle to the ground.

In addition to the above, there are also high-level angel watchers sent by the upper planes, mercenaries of the demon of Yogros from the Scorching Hell, and madmen who have rushed over from other main material planes to participate in the bloody battle......

Anyway, no matter which side it is, as long as it sends a little manpower, it can crush a worm to raise the Dragon Spear Castle.

Although Gramir did not know how important this small fortress standing on the continent of Faeron was to the lord to whom he was allegiant.

But the devil's nature to please her boss determines that she will never have the slightest omission in this regard.

So a Hellpuritor and his soldiers were dispatched.

If nothing else, on the other side of the portal, a super-large fortress comparable to the scale of Waterdeep City has been built, and a considerable army of devils is stationed, ready to deal with all kinds of emergencies.

Thinking of this, the corners of Zuo Si's mouth twitched uncontrollably slightly, and he hooked his finger at the Deep Hell Purgatory Demon who was kneeling on the ground.

The latter immediately understood, hurriedly stood up and approached, and cautiously probed: "Is there anything I can help?"

"What do you know about the Dark Elves who have recently migrated?" Zuo Si asked bluntly.

"A lot, even more than they themselves know.

In fact, from the time the first Drow arrived, my devilish spies noticed them.

The dark elves who had fled from nowhere were tired, hungry, and embarrassed, and many were wounded.

In the beginning, I set a trap to trick them into signing a contract and becoming a slave to the Legion.

But who knew that the woman in charge inadvertently revealed that the reason why they came from far away was actually to get your permission to build a city here.

Later, I hired some adventurers to make contact with the Drows, and found out that they were all followers of the Dark Maiden Eliestria, and gave them some much-needed food, potions, and household items for free.

Now I'm barely an ally with these interesting dark elves, and I do some trading occasionally......"

The Deep Hell Purgatory explained everything he knew.

Especially at this stage, several more powerful families have also made a detailed introduction.

As Zuo Si expected, although these dark elves chose to abandon Rose's belief in Elise, it is difficult to change the bad habits and values that have been cultivated for tens of thousands of years at once.

In particular, the family political system with the mother as the core is not only still continuing, but also the most important force.

The eldest daughter of some families even actively co-opted the devil in private, wanting to use external forces to kill her mother and replace her.

It can be said that more than half of these dark elves are no different from their spurned compatriots, except that they no longer believe in Rose.

The only consolation is that thirty to forty percent of those who escaped alone, without any family background, fully accepted Elisetri's teachings and began to actively abandon the past and embrace the future.

In this way, while listening to the report of the Deep Hell Purgatory, he made his way along the dark and deep tunnel.

After a few hours, Zuo Si finally arrived in the area occupied by the dark elves.

No sooner had he approached the periphery than a sentry quickly fired a poisoned arrow as a warning, and shouted in a not very proficient lingua franca: "Stand back!" Stranger! This is our territory, no approach! ”

But in the next second, he was startled by the Deep Hell Purgatory Demon who came out of the darkness, and his whole body was instantly soaked with sweat.

Unlike the mortals of the surface world, since the spider goddess Rose is also the Lord of the Abyss, the Drow can be said to be quite familiar with the creatures of the lower planes.

Especially all kinds of demons, which can be counted with their eyes closed.

Even warriors who don't have the ability to cast spells will be trained in this area.

Therefore, any dark elf who has received systematic training can recognize the Deep Hell Purgatory, the highest level of demons equivalent to the Barlow Flame Demon in hell.

The Sentinel couldn't imagine if he had annoyed the other party with his attack just now, and would end up with no place to die.

Fortunately, the worst didn't happen.

The Deep Hell Purgatory glared at him with a warning and threatening look, and then saw a young human male walk out with a kind smile on his face and say, "Hello, Elisestra's follower. My name is Soth, and I believe you should know who I am. Now, please inform Lady Aoiru, and say that I have come to fulfill the agreement with the goddess. ”

"Please...... Wait! ”

The sentinel, who had been closed by the Ghost Gate, forced his composure, first telling his companions to stay in place in sign language, and then rode a large lizard himself towards the gathering place.

This lizard is a specialty of the Underworld and is also the traditional mount of the Dark Elves.

Not only is the speed very fast, but also can fly the eaves and walk on the wall like walking on the ground, often a jump can run out more than ten or twenty meters away, which is equivalent to the high-speed all-terrain vehicle in the riding world.

After about seven or eight minutes, he returned with a few other dark elves riding lizards.

The woman who wears a silver dress at the head knows that she is naturally the double elect of the goddess of magic and the dark girl, the youngest of the seven sisters of the Northland, Aoi Lu.

Like the other six older sisters, she also has a beauty that ordinary people can't match.

In addition to the swarthy black of the skin, a little shadow of Erastro can be seen in the facial features and facial contours.

Of course, the main reason why Zuo Si was able to recognize her so quickly was that this person's figure was too much taller than the others.

Generally speaking, the height of the Dark Elves is between 1.6 and 1.5 meters (Triste's height of 1.6 meters is already good for its kind), and the highest height will not exceed 1.7 meters.

But what about sunflower dew?

She was obviously over two meters tall, and I don't know if it was because of Elisetsu.

This can definitely be regarded as a "giant" among the dark elves, so it is very recognizable.

"It's a pleasure to meet you in person, dear Soth. I've heard a lot of rumors about you before, and compliments from Hembo, Erastro, and Lyra. ”

As she spoke, Aoi Lu jumped directly from the saddle of the underground lizard, and opened her arms with a smile to give Zuo Si a warm hug.

Thanks to the latter, after absorbing the power of Ob Nixilis, his height has skyrocketed to more than 1.8 meters, otherwise he is afraid that he will only be able to reach the other party's shoulder.

What's more, as Elistria's elect and priest, Aoi Lu perfectly inherited her own gods' habit of not liking to wear clothes.

The silver dress, made of unknown materials, was 100% vacuum and completely transparent underneath.

I couldn't see it very clearly when I was far away just now.

But now, after close contact, even the mole underneath can be seen clearly, not to mention other aspects.

Of course, it wasn't just Sunflower who was dressed like this, and the other female pastors next to her were similar.

"Uh...... I'm glad to meet you, ma'am. ”

Zuo Si smiled slightly awkwardly, trying to lock his eyes on the other party's face as much as he didn't know where to put them.

Aoi Lu also pursed the corners of her mouth and snickered in response: "Relax, there's no need to be so restrained, we don't really care at all." ”

"I don't quite understand it. Why would Elistra ask her pastor to dress so revealingly? Isn't she worried that something will happen that will go wrong? ”

Zuo Si's tone was full of strong doubts and puzzles.

"What you're worried about is exactly what Elistra is expecting.

Desire, mating, and reproduction are not things that the goddess is taboo about, but things she encourages.

Because only the more dark elves who pursue freedom and freedom, the weaker Rose's monopoly on the beliefs of the entire race will be.

And it also makes men less afraid of women, especially clergy who are pastors, to a certain extent.

After all, in traditional Dark Elf society, men are usually lowly and despised.

Many times, when some men have a relationship with a woman, they often feel not enjoyment and pleasure, but awe, fear and pain. ”

Sunflower gave a very direct answer.

As a voter who grew up in the underworld, she knows more about the Dark Elves' social system and their truest thoughts than outsiders.

It's different from what many old people imagine.

Because it is a matriarchal society, it is usually only women who can really enjoy pleasure from the relationship between the sexes.

In particular, the "father-in-waiting" who serves as the spouse of the housewife in the family often needs to satisfy many of the former's distorted and sick desires.

Compared with them, the rich woman's happy steel wool ball is nothing.

To make matters worse, when the Mistress is tired of her existing "Father-in-Waiting", she will find an opportune time to kill him in a very cruel way and sacrifice it to the spider goddess Rose.

In this case, men also want pleasure from the relationship between the sexes?

Dream on!

It is estimated that it will produce a strong psychological shadow after several times, and it will also produce serious functional impairment if it is not done well.

Unless it was a powerful warrior who was as important to the family as Trist's father, Zack Navan, the average acolyte, rarely survived for ten years.

"I see."

Zuo Si instantly understood Elistri's painstaking efforts, and quickly took out a parchment scroll from his pocket and handed it over: "Here, this is the first batch of aid I brought, I believe it should be enough for you to use it for a while." ”

"Food, tools, building materials? Great, that's exactly what we need most right now. Thank you! ”

Aoi Lu glanced at it, and an undisguised expression of joy suddenly appeared on her face.

After all, most of these Elistrian believers who had come from other parts of the Dark Regions did not carry any supplies, and even filling their stomachs would soon become a challenge.

Originally, she had planned to negotiate with the Dragon Spear Castle to allow some people to go to the forest on the surface to fish and hunt after nightfall.

But now, with the arrival of massive supplies, all problems have been solved.

There are enough building materials to build an underground city that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

"You're welcome.

All of these supplies were provided on the basis of loans, which were to be repaid little by little later.

In addition to that, I hope you are ready to send men to war.

As the notorious Dark Elves of the surface world, you must prove that you are different from your other evil and cruel people.

That would give me reason to convince other nations and city-states to accept you into the Trade Alliance.

The easiest, quickest, and most straightforward way to do this is to send an army to join the coalition and defeat what they consider evil.

This large-scale invasion of Santil Fort happened to be a perfect opportunity. ”

Zuo Si didn't hide anything, and generously stated the most important purpose of this trip.

You must know that even Erastro, a leader with high prestige in Silvermoon City and the Silvermoon Alliance, and a leader who has won the trust of the people, finally refused to allow him to enter the city he ruled because of the political influence when he treated Trist.

This shows how bad the reputation of the dark elves is among the common people.

Not to mention that Zuosi had to take in thousands or even tens of thousands of dark elves this time, and allow them to settle close to the surface and trade with other cities.

Aoi Lu replied without thinking, "Yes!

At present, many goddess believers scattered in the dark regions are gathering here.

In two weeks at most, I can raise an army of thousands and prove to the entire inhabitants of the surface world that we are different from the other dark elves. ”

Zuo Si nodded with satisfaction: "Then it's no problem."

Don't worry about weaponry, I have a bunch of weapons and armor that can be used in the surface world.

Also, I'll make sure that I don't arrange for you to fight during the day, and instead use the advantage of stealth at night.

If nothing else, the war will break out in two months, no more than four months at most.

As for the supplies I brought, they are currently stored in the warehouse of the Dragon Spear Castle, and you can send someone to carry them yourself. ”

In this way, after a short conversation, the two quickly arranged everything.

In particular, as a voter, Aoi Lu obviously sensed the strangeness of this large-scale invasion of Santil Fort, but did not say much.

Because she knew that this would be a great help in quickly gaining the adherents of her goddess to the inhabitants of the surface world.

Under what circumstances can two enemies who have hated each other for many years be reconciled?
