811. Placement of merfolk
In the side hall of the Iowa ruins, Rand was still teasing the high-level octopus captured from the north like a teasing dog, and outside the side hall, Lili was guarding the door with a group of mermaids.
This group of merfolk were all captured in Baishan Island before, and there were both huge mermaid warriors like Volsch and Tauora, as well as wave mage apprentices like Tausia and Share.
These mermaids are different from the high-level mage Yalanzhuo, their belief in the sea god is not very strong, and the eggs planted by the sea god on them are also very limited, plus after Lili has a "deep heart-to-heart talk" with them, they also took refuge in Rand and became a subordinate of Edith.
For the Naga warriors among them, Etrice is a traitor to the mermaids, and for the Wave Mage apprentices, Edith is the genius sister of the teacher Arando, and the two waves of merfolk do not have the same attitude towards her.
So when Etrice appeared yesterday and tried to command the fish, it was greatly hindered.
Fortunately, at that time, the "fishman" Tierney suddenly appeared, and his voice alone made all the mermaids present tremble, after all, they had heard those terrible words when they were half-awake:
"I think it's almost over, and it really won't work to bleed again."
"Don't worry, I haven't poked any fish, as long as I'm here, I'll be able to put it clean!"
This kind of kitchen knife on the opposite side, and the feeling of being on the board has left a great psychological shadow on every mermaid.
Now Rand has established a set of plans for the races enslaved by the Warcraft, giving them enough potions and living space is a favor, and showing them that they are dealing with the Warcraft they are afraid of is a deterrent.
"Your master is like a dog to me!" This is the signal that Rand sends to them, whether it is the nezumi of the Hindukir, or the galloping horses, or the captives of the merfolk, this signal is good enough.
Dozens of merfolk cowered behind the gate, timidly watching Rand easily let the high-level octopus give up a tentacle and accept the octopus's fawning, and there was only awe left in their eyes.
Lili was next to the mermaids, and in her opinion, Rand not only left the octopus alive, but also provided it with delicious food and drink, and even allowed the octopus to reproduce smoothly, which was even more merciful than the god of life.
Looking at Rand's interaction with the octopus full of "friendship", Lili said with a smile: "I'll just say that Rand is a human nobleman with a very good heart, even if it is a sea monster, he is reluctant to kill, just take a few tentacles every day!" ”
"Every day!"
"Take a few!"
"Is that bald?"
The merfolk chattered and whispered, unable to hide their astonishment, and did not dare to disturb Rand.
Listening to the mermaids' questions, Lili explained: "The technology was not mature enough before, and I really cut off 4 tentacles at once, but later Rand transplanted it with the life magic pattern of a high-level mouse, and the octopus's regeneration ability is much stronger!" ”
The merfolk were silent, they had seen them raise sea monsters, they had seen them kill sea monsters, but it was the first time they had seen them like this, and they had seen them like this.
The fear and whispers of the merfolk were transmitted from the magic net to Rand, and he was very satisfied with the deterrence, patted the octopus on the head and walked out of the hall, carrying the tentacles he had just acquired to the mermaid people.
The merfolk saw Rand, and only Volsch, who had once reached the level of a high-level warrior, bowed very low, and the rest even fell directly to the ground.
"Excuse me, everybody," Rand said graciously, and even lifted Volsch himself.
"In the past tens of thousands of years, the merfolk have been deceived and enslaved by the sea monster clan, and have not only become a container for the growth of the sea monster, but also a victim of the sea monster's external expansion."
"As the lord of the Inland Plains, I have never coveted the sea, but I am deeply saddened by what happened to the merfolk, so I am especially generous to you, and I hope that you can continue the ancient heritage of your species."
Hearing this, Volsch hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I am willing to drive forward for Your Majesty!" ”
"Very well, I do have a lot of things that I need you to do right now," Rand pointed to the big pond behind the door, "the first is to breed the octopus, this octopus and her offspring are very useful to me, and I need them to take care of her." ”
The appearance of a large number of mermaids in the Galloping Horse River Basin is equivalent to swearing that he has been tough with the sea god, so Rand arranged to raise seafood inside the ruins, explore the ancient magic of mermaids, and maintain the dark river.
The mermaids who received the arrangement began to get busy, although the wave mages had lost the sea god's body, that is, the eggs, which caused the magic stock in their bodies to drop significantly, but the magic elements in the cave were abundant, and the mermaid magic taught by Edith was particularly suitable for them to learn, and several junior wave mages had recovered their previous level.
Rand left behind the high-ranking mermaid samurai Volsch and the mid-level samurai Taua, and inquired in detail about the situation on the White Mountain Peninsula.
"As far as I know, the Baishan Peninsula is hundreds of square kilometers, but it doesn't seem that the troops you have invested in occupying the peninsula are not very large?"
Tauola, the commander who followed Yarandra to conquer the peninsula, knew the situation best: "Your Majesty, it is like this, the sea in the north is very cold, and the water is not suitable for any sea tribe to live and breed, so in winter, our people and the sea god ...... I mean, the Kraken clan is going south,"
"In addition, the original sea elves on the Baishan Peninsula are not very many, there is their breeding ground, and there are only 2 or 3 high-level and dozens of middle-level people all year round, this winter the northern sea beast clan and the sea god's subordinates are at war, the sea elves on the peninsula turned to the north to assist in defense after the cold weather, the sea monsters spied on the weak forces in the ruins, so they sent a legendary-level octopus to feint nearby, and Master Yalanzhuo took 50 middle-level people to take down the ruins."
"It seems that this master is also an all-rounder," Rand said with a smile, "How dare a mage of the Terran personally lead his troops into battle?" ”
"Master Yalanzhuo has a very deep belief in the god of the sea, and she very much hopes to win the favor of the god of the sea." Volsch said.
Hearing this, Rand asked, "Since it was the sea monsters who made a feint, why didn't they enter the cave and send so many mermaids instead?" ”
Volsch replied, "Your Excellency, you have seen that octopus too, it is already the most astute life among the sea monsters, and without the help of the mermaids, these sea monsters will not be able to use the magic circle in the ruins. ”
Lan nodded: "So you mermaids are orcs in the ocean, willing to serve the monsters in the sea, even if they can't even use magic......"
