Heroes of the Invincible Knight
Chapter 582: Sea Clan's Reaction
In the sea, the shallow sea less than a hundred miles away from the Harbor City is where the Royal Court of the Sea Clan is located.
Although it is on the bottom of the sea, the arrangement of the Royal Court of the Sea Clan is even richer and more luxurious than the royal palace of the Golden Dragon Kingdom.
In the natural cave, all kinds of jewels decorate the royal court sparklingly, and the walls of the cave glow with various colors of jewels and jade. The huge coral ornaments on both sides are shining like Christmas trees in festivals.
Any few decorations here can be sold for a good price in the human kingdom. If the value is higher before the war starts, it is just an ordinary decoration in the royal court of the sea clan. The king of the sea clan Where the court is located, it is just like a Crystal Palace.
Sea King sat on the main seat holding a trident that symbolized the power of the Sea Clan, and the senior priests and bloodline generals of the Sea Clan below stood in two rows, standing respectfully, since the High Priest and his fearsome abyss whale After his death, the King of the Sea gradually consolidated his power. A few months later, he took back all the strength of the Sea Clan, big and small, and became the real king of the sea.
However, since taking back the power, Neptune has become more and more intolerable to the existence of Harbor City, not only because Harbor City is located in the South China Sea Clam Field, a key place involving the continuation of the Sea Race, but also because Neptune believes in his heart that The existence of the city is a challenge to his power.
Whenever he sits on the throne like this now and looks at the submissive generals and priests of the Sea Clan below him, he will think of the human city not far away, and a strong sense of humiliation will come to his heart instantly.
"Report to His Majesty the King of the Sea, the giant whales of the abyss are haunting the West Sea again, threatening the survival of the four ethnic groups. At least more than 100,000 people have disappeared, but the blood warriors and priests have already evacuated first."
"Um."
Neptune nodded and didn't take it too seriously, as long as the blood warriors and priests withdrew.
"Let them retreat to the east, and let those ethnic groups in the east be generous and not obstruct them, and let them go back when the deep-sea giant whales recede."
"Time, Your Majesty."
The threat to the Sea Clan is not limited to Harbor City. The deep-sea giant whale is the existence that has always caused headaches for the Sea Clan. The number of Sea Clan buried in the belly of the giant whale is no less than hundreds of thousands every year. These giants are fiercer than dragons in the sea. There is almost no good way for the clan to take them, so they can only hide and go. Anyway, the sea kings with a large population of the sea clan actually don't have many numbers, and losing hundreds of thousands a year is not a big deal.
The Sea Clan and the deep-sea giant whales have coexisted for many years. The Sea Clan has long been accustomed to the habit of the deep-sea giant whales. Even avoiding them is a matter of course in the hearts of the sea kings. There are not a few cases of deep-sea giant whales devouring several groups every year. Sea kings are not used to things, but humans are different. In the circle of the ocean, humans are forced to squeeze in. Compared with it, there are hundreds of thousands of years of running-in. From the sea king, the entire sea clan is very repulsive.
"Your Majesty, there is another problem with the batch of weapons traded with humans."
"what happened?"
Just now, when I mentioned that more than 100,000 sea people were swallowed by the giant deep-sea whale, the sea king’s face was calm and there was almost no fluctuation, but when the people below mentioned human beings, the sea king frowned. Nothing good to humans.
"Humans say that the source of their weapons is restricted, and the price of these weapons will increase, and it is uncertain whether the trade will continue."
"How much are they going to raise the price?"
"Well"
"ten times."
"boom!"
"I've never seen a race as greedy as humans!"
The angry Neptune slapped his own throne with a palm. This throne made of coral and crystal was not considered strong, and a corner flew off when Neptune slapped it.
The weapons used by most sea warriors are primitive weapons fixed by sharp shells, sharp stones, and seaweed. Weapons made of swordfish fish bones are already considered high-end goods, and armor is simply made of hard shells and seaweed. , As for the role of these equipment, it can only be said to be better than empty hands.
Is it because the Sea Clan doesn't want to use metal weapons? Of course not, it’s just that the sea people who mainly live in the sea don’t have alchemy techniques. They don’t have the ability to forge metal weapons at all. The metal equipment snatched from humans usually doesn’t last long, and the seawater will corrode soon. Get rid of the metal equipment they snatched, and it won't take long for these sharp weapons on the shore to be rusted and brittle, even inferior to sharp stone axes, and directly turned into tetanus swords.
However, there are exceptions to everything. Some high-quality weapons made by dwarves have a corrosion effect, and can be used for a long time even in the humid environment of the sea. After discovering this kind of weapon, it took several twists and turns to contact the human nobles in the south, and bought this kind of corrosion-resistant weapon from the dwarves.
Although before Paley came, the Kingdom has always prohibited the trading of any metal weapons to the Sea Clan, especially the sophisticated equipment made by the dwarves, but the trade profits were too high, so they bought them from the dwarves and resold them to the Sea Clan. It can even generate a huge profit of twenty times, which is enough to make anyone crazy.
All this kind of weapon trading has been repeatedly banned, and the Sea Clan has also bought a batch of weapons that can be equipped with tens of thousands of elite royal courts. When the Sea Clan ravaged the south on a large scale last time, Paley discovered that the Sea Clan's equipment The proportion of dwarf weapons is a bit high, and the crackdown on the weapon smuggling trade has been strengthened again. However, the Sea Clan can't bear to raise the purchase price again, and there are still some people who are willing to take risks and help the Sea Clan buy weapons.
But in this alliance, Paley directly cut off the source of this kind of weapon smuggling from the source. From now on, all the weapons in Stone Hills were monopolized by him. If the nobles in the south want to buy it, they all have to look at Paley's face. Buying and trading in bulk to the Sea Clan greatly increases the risk of being discovered. Therefore, it is not incomprehensible to directly increase the price of the only goods by ten times. After all, rare things are expensive.
After Sea King smashed the handle of the chair, the high-ranking members of the Sea Clan below did not dare to speak. Since the death of the high priest, Sea King's majesty has become more serious. After waiting for a long time, someone cautiously suggested:
"Your Majesty, these humans are really hateful. Otherwise, when we are trading, we will kill them directly and grab the weapons."
Because they were afraid of being discovered by Paley's subordinates, usually such audacious nobles sent people to ship the weapons to the sea first, and complete the transaction with the Sea Clan from the sea to reduce the risk of being discovered.
This type of transaction must be established under the condition that the Sea Clan abides by the contract. After all, the sea is always the home of the Sea Clan. If the Sea Clan has any crooked ideas, they can make the weapons and the boats and people disappear without a trace on the sea. Not a single shadow could be found.
However, although this proposal is very tempting, Neptune, who has calmed down a little, still rejected this proposal:
"Don't you just want some stones? There are plenty in the sea. Just buy the goods at the price they said. Don't make any other moves. Normal transactions will do."
Although the king of the sea is angry, he is not out of his mind. It is a trivial matter for the sea clan to rob the passing merchant ships, or even go ashore to plunder. The nobles of the weapons were robbed, and no one would dare to buy weapons for the Sea Clan after that.
Although the ten-fold price increase is unscrupulous, it is just to exchange some rare treasures in the sea. These things are valuable to humans, but to the sea people, it is just a waste of effort to collect them. It is not unacceptable, but the other party said The real trouble is that future transactions may not be able to continue.
I finally found a metal weapon that can be used in the sea, and I have already equipped a lot of blood warriors and sea patrol guards. Trade channels, where can they be robbed directly.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Seeing that Neptune still decided to continue to use trading methods to obtain weapons, the people below changed their faces very quickly. They were still filled with righteous indignation just now, but now they returned to calm.
"If there's nothing else, let's leave today."
"Your Majesty, an urgent report from the clam farm."
Just when Neptune was about to leave, a patrol guard swam into the cave at a very fast speed, attracting the attention of everyone present.
"whats the matter?"
"Humans are expanding that city!"
boom
The hall that had recovered its silence suddenly exploded.
The human city on the clam field can be said to be the most sensitive point of the Hai Clan. Now that people are going to expand the city, everyone present can't sit still.
"Where's the general in charge of the patrol? What does Yunus do to eat? Why didn't he stop him?"
"Master Yunus led people to stop him, but was hacked to death by a human sword, and all the patrolling guards on the land of the clam farm were driven down by humans!"
"Damn! Humans are looking for death!"
Neptune, who had always wanted to pull out of Harbor City, could no longer bear it this time, and made a decision almost instantly.
"General Diwu!"
"His Majesty!"
"Immediately take 50,000 sea patrol guards to the clam farm, and let all the surrounding ethnic groups gather in the clam farm."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Priest Lorwyn!"
"His Majesty!"
"Let all the priests in the sacrificial hall get ready and immediately follow the army to the clam field."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After making a decision, Neptune was not polite, and directly used the strongest force in his hand to rush towards Harbor City.
After a few orders, there will be at least a million ordinary sea warriors used as cannon fodder. As for the sea patrol guards led by Diwu, they are the essence of Wang Ting. These sea patrol guards are not comparable to the cannon fodder soldiers of the sea tribe who can kill a few ordinary people. These sea patrol guards in Wang Ting can basically compete with the most The weak quasi-knights are comparable, and half of them are equipped with smuggled dwarf weapons. With a large number of priests accompanying them, Neptune will not move, and will completely flatten Harbor City.
harbor city
The action of Paul's subordinates was very fast. Not long after the Sea Clan was expelled, some peasants and workers had started to work and began to expand the city. The surrounding soldiers who maintained order had excited expressions on their faces. After all, they just now Just won the battle.
"Captain, these sea clansmen are too inexperienced to be beaten. Those sea patrolling guards who were able to fight a little were shot to death by a few rounds of crossbows. We have been nesting in that city for so long, and we should have come out to drive them away a long time ago. gone."
In the battle just now, Paul's army obviously took advantage of it. First, they caught the Sea Clan by surprise, and the Sea Clan in charge of monitoring Harbor City didn't react at all. Second, the Sea Clan's combat effectiveness on land was indeed relatively weak. Cross, ordinary sea warriors are very powerless in the face of fully armed human warriors. The inferior weapons in their hands can't even break the armor of the soldiers. These well-trained soldiers on land can easily cut down seven or eight sea warriors. .
Even sea patrol guards who are as strong as quasi-knights are only equivalent to elite soldiers in actual combat. At least one has to wear a piece of heavy armor weighing more than a hundred catties, which can withstand most ordinary arrows. Although the sea patrol guards of the sea clan also wear protective gear, the defensive effect is not good, and they are not waiting for the masters of the human side. Take the shot, and let the ordinary soldiers shoot into hedgehogs with a crossbow.
That is to say, the soldiers of the blood of the Sea Clan who were in charge of the garrison were a little tricky, but they were quickly beheaded when Paul personally took action. The victory came so easily that some recruits actually became swollen.
"Hey, you kid should cherish the good mood now, we are surrounded by the sea, wait for the sea clan to start to counterattack."
Before the captain could finish his sentence, a trace of fear appeared on his face. He thought of those densely packed sea warriors, and his scalp tingled when he thought of that picture, they were endless and endless.
Similarly, Paul, who had won the victory, also seemed worried. After driving away the sea tribe's army stationed in the bay where Harbor City was located, Paul would stand above the sea from time to time, not daring to be careless at all.
Cuckoo.
Cuckoo.
Just as Paul swept towards the sea surface again, dense air bubbles appeared near the clam farm. Afterwards, sea warriors emerged from the sea one by one, almost occupying the entire beach within a few breaths.
"The Sea Clan is here!"
"Ready to fight!"
"Clang, clang, clang"
As the warning bell rang, the entire Harbor City entered a state of tension.
