Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 483 Interrogation

According to his confession, his identity is an elder of a Luoka fishman village, and he and his compatriots in the village have been living a self-sufficient life without contending with the world. Only occasionally do some transactions with intelligent creatures on land or passing ships to buy some production and daily necessities that cannot be produced in water.

Under such circumstances, they naturally didn't want to participate in this war that was of no benefit to them, but cost a lot of their lives. And there is only one reason why they will appear on the battlefield to attack this island with the sahuagin now, that is, their spawning ground has been taken by the sahuagin, so they can only do this.

Because of this, he and the loca murlocs in their village consciously fell behind after being sent as cannon fodder to this side containment battlefield. Fortunately, due to the chaos on the battlefield and the sahuayu who charged with them rushed upwards excitedly as soon as they entered the battlefield, no one noticed their behavior of fishing in troubled waters.

Therefore, in a dark and chaotic battlefield, this group of locayu people quickly hid in a depression and hid after the group of sahuagin who had surrounded them were killed. Until the end of the battle, taking advantage of the opportunity of Lawrence and their army to clean up the battlefield, they led their subordinates to surrender voluntarily.

And there is only one reason why they took huge risks to do so on the battlefield, and that is to hope that the other side of this war, that is, the human side, can help them, and see if they can help them take those crucial snatched the eggs from the sahuagin.

"Those eggs are related to our future, so we have no choice but to attack you with the group of sahuagin." The lokayu said helplessly, "because they threatened us that if we refused to agree to them, They would destroy and eat all our eggs. Of course, we also know that what the sahuagin say is not credible at all, but we really have no choice now."

The locathians are often used to building a unified hatching pool in each tribe or village to incubate their eggs, which is more convenient for experienced shamans and elders to take care of these eggs and ensure that the cubs hatching rate. It's just that they didn't expect the sahuagin to attack suddenly this time, and they ended up taking over the hatchery.

"That is to say, as long as you find your fish eggs and return them to you, can you quit the battle?" Lawrence asked after listening to what the loca murloc elder said. How important are these fish eggs representing the future to the race, so he asked. "If this is the case, you can tell me the place where your fish eggs appeared and the surrounding guards, and I will try to see if I can get your fish eggs back."

"Ah, sir, thank you very much for your willingness to lend a helping hand." After hearing Lawrence's earnest reply, the Loka murloc elder excitedly waved his arms, but soon his arms fell down again, and his body was also injured. There was an air of frustration that everyone could feel. "But I'm worried that it may be difficult for you to help us."

Then the Lokayu elder began to express his worries. It turned out that unlike the sahuagin with a strict hierarchical structure, the overall political structure of the locathah was extremely loose. For example, the tens of thousands of loca murlocs who were kidnapped this time actually came from more than a hundred loca murloc villages.

And this time, the Rokayu were taken away by the sahuagin, regardless of their age, as cannon fodder, so it was naturally impossible to leave those fish eggs in those already empty murloc villages. So these sahuayu people forced the rokayu people to leave with their eggs, and then they all gathered somewhere near the island for centralized custody.

"We are not unified internally in this war. Some compatriots in the new villages don't understand how evil the sahuagin are, and even feel that going to the shore with the sahuagin to rob is more busy than we used to be for a whole year much better."

The Loka murloc elder said with a sad face. "So we are divided into two factions now, and pacifists like us are repelled to this place where the sahuayu people think that there is no oil and water and they will die."

"So the fish eggs of our two sides are also treated separately, like those who are willing to cooperate, their fish eggs are placed in a shallow sea area that is warmer and sunny, while the fish eggs of our villages that are not willing to cooperate are placed They were placed on the seabed at a water depth of about 300 meters, where the fish eggs would not only stop developing, but even die easily."

Having said that, the elder of the Loka murloc showed a complicated expression, which was mixed with anger and heartache. "Those guys who violated our traditions actually firmly followed the sahuagin because of this incident, and insulted us as cowards. But they don't know that those evil sahuagins are simply untrustworthy."

"There is only one reason why we have this tradition, and that is that we have cooperated with the sahuayu people before." The elder Rokayu people finally said, "As a result, what they did after the battle was not at all according to the agreement." We left, and instead had us and those eggs as the main course of the celebration feast, which is how our ancestors narrowly escaped, but the entire village was only 1/10 the number of people left, and that The egg is even more destroyed—”

"Okay, thank you for sharing the situation with us frankly." Listening to the elder in front of him rambled on a series of grievances and grievances between them and the sahuayu people before and what they saw when they sent representatives to inspect the eggs. After the group of sahuagin told the specific situation of the guards of those eggs, Lawrence nodded slightly and continued.

"Please give us some time and we will discuss how to proceed."

Hearing what Lawrence said, the elder of the Loca murloc immediately realized that Lawrence and the others would decide their own destiny. So he bowed deeply to Lawrence and the others, and then followed the two heavily armed tauren out of the room, because his life experience told him that it was best for him to leave at this time.

"Let's talk about it, what should we do next?" Lawrence crossed his hands and leaned on the chair after the Loka murloc elder left, and then looked at the two priests and Nora. "However, we must first confirm that what the loca murloc said just now is true and not a trap aimed at us."

"This guy is indeed hiding a little bit. He didn't say that he is an apprentice-level transcendent." Nora said, "Besides, I can be sure that what he said is true, or he thinks it is true in his heart." Really. Considering that the sahuagin themselves are not very good at illusion and soul magic, I believe the information he told us should be fine."

After Nora finished speaking, the two priests also spoke one by one, saying that they hadn't found out that the locather elder was lying just now. That is to say, some of the Rokafish are indeed true pacifists, and they want to get out of this war from the bottom of their hearts. The only reason they participated in this war was because the sahuagin kidnapped their eggs.

As for the elder hiding his extraordinary ability, it is normal. After all, he is still a prisoner, and he also bears the future of the entire village and even the entire ethnic group in this area. Therefore, it is very reasonable to hide part of the strength in some aspects and prepare for a desperate fight.

"If that's the case, I think we can try to save the eggs of those Loka murlocs who are willing to cooperate with us." Safiel said, because he is the only one who is suitable to speak in this place. "I thought since we have that ability, why not try it?"
