Chapter 380 Thain’s idea
There is also such a group in the wizarding world, which is very similar to the Sea Tribe.
That is the demihuman race.
The demi-humans are widely distributed deep underground in the wizarding world. In terms of the complex composition of the group, although they are not as complex as the Shanghai people, they are not much worse.
When Thane was in the city of Menzobra, he often dealt with these demi-humans, including Thain himself who almost died at the hands of a certain demi-human.
Therefore, Thain's understanding of the demi-human race must be far superior to that of other holy tower magicians.
Are demi-humans suffering? Of course it’s bitter!
Even in some disaster years, the demihuman tribe will have tragic scenes of exchanging children for food.
However, in places like the Underdark, the dark laws of survival are more thorough than those in the Endless South Sea.
At least there are vast schools of fish or seaweed in the endless South China Sea, which can provide barely enough food and clothing for those sea people who can't survive.
And what is there in the underground world like the Underdark?
If even the edible moss is dug out, all you can do is chew on the rocks!
(PS: There are indeed some demi-humans with special physiques whose stomach acid can digest rocks.)
Thain's guess is actually very close to reality.
These sea tribes came to trouble Cook's alchemy ship. In addition to trying to extort a sum of money from these knights and magicians who walked in the gray area, they also had another intention of killing their excess population.
The sea lizard people are really talented.
Although an adult sea lizard man does not give birth to many babies, only three to five, the sea lizard man's tenacious survival ability makes their survival rate from the juvenile stage to the growth stage extremely high!
Moreover, sea lizards can reach sexual maturity in about fifteen years, and some even earlier, even ten years is no problem.
In this case, even with a pile of rotten seaweed and barren fish schools, a tribe of sea lizards could barely be fed.
The reason why these sea lizards turned into bandits in front of them was because of the storm season, which indeed caused heavy losses to their small tribe.
There is another, more important reason, which is actually the crowding out from other surrounding sea tribes.
Although the vast ocean is boundless and vast to terrestrial creatures such as Thane, this vast ocean has actually been divided up by generations of sea tribes that have existed since ancient times.
As the lowest level of the sea clan, the sea lizards are naturally the object of contempt and oppression by all other sea clans.
The sea lizards are not alone in the storm season's impact on surrounding waters.
When other sea tribes are also unlucky, those sea tribes living in the upper and middle levels may still be able to survive, but what can these sea lizard people living at the bottom do?
During this year's storm season, the sea lizards lost almost a quarter of their breeding waters.
But correspondingly, last year, due to sufficient light and suitable climate, the hatching rate of newborns of sea lizards increased by one-third compared with previous years.
(ps: Sea lizards are oviparous sea tribes.)
If any ethnic group wants to develop and grow in the long term, it must not rely on those in their prime of life, but on the strength of the new generation.
Although the sea lizards in front of them seem to have low intelligence and only know how to use brute force, there are still some sensible people in this group.
At least they are pretty good at choosing who to attack.
If they were to attack those large, well-backed sailing merchant ships, or to attack other sea tribes in the surrounding waters.
It is estimated that the final result will not only be as simple as losing a part of the population, but also the annihilation of the entire clan.
The rules of the Holy Tower and the Knights Hall will not show excessive mercy to these sea people.
All in all, the major holy towers and knight halls still consider issues from the perspective of humans in the wizarding world.
The massacre before our eyes continues...
Yes, it was a one-sided massacre.
Except for the strong sea lizard chief who could block part of the pressure from the first-level knight Cook, the charge of other adult sea lizards would be death in Thain's opinion.
These sea lizard people are not even at the first level of life level. How dare they resist the elemental bombardment of a first level magician even if they are naked?
Due to different evolutionary angles, the thickness of the scales of these sea lizards is not as thick as most of the flame creatures Thane has seen in the poisonous green flame world.
It has been less than fifteen hours since this battle began, and a patch of dark blue blood has already seeped out of the surrounding sea.
Many small marine creatures, including silver dragon fish, moved at the smell of fish and participated in this gluttonous feast.
What's interesting is that these sea lizard people were not in a hurry to dispose of the bodies of their companions, but quietly pulled up a thin net woven from green seaweed in the surrounding waters.
This thin net is definitely not meant to block Cook's alchemy-powered ship.
Because although this ship is a bit broken, its power is not bad, otherwise it would not have been able to break through the eye of the giant storm.
From beginning to end, Thain looked at everything happening in the sea in front of him indifferently.
The deaths of nearly a thousand sea lizards in a short period of time, as well as the increasingly strong smell of blood in the surrounding sea, did not waver Thain's mind. Instead, he thought of other aspects.
Thain's mind was extremely calm at this time. He suddenly thought of the cheap labor force of the bottom sea tribe and the demihuman tribe in the underground world, as well as the shortage of slave creatures in the Holy Tower of Origin.
In his position, he will do his best.
If Thane was just an ordinary first-level magician, he would never have thought of such a profound problem.
But since he is the disciple of the tower master, and with the help of his mentor Lu Lianman, Thain has a relatively high vision and perspective on the war in the Poison Fire Green Flame World War that ended not long ago, this does not prevent Thain from thinking deeper. a little.
Needless to say, before the Poison Fire Green Flame World War was launched, their sect held discussions on the top of the holy tower of the Green Fire Master Cuilis.
When it comes to the conquest and occupation of an entire plane, it is definitely not something that a small person like Thain can decide.
But it is undeniable that he was indeed listening as a third-generation member of the Jade Burning Fire Master Sect.
Reminiscent of the mentor Lu Lianman during the Poison Fire Green Flame World War, because there was no slave biological legion as a background.
Having no choice but to put the nearly 200,000 plant creatures he had cultivated in the World Laboratory into the battlefield, the World Laboratory that Lu Lianman was so proud of might not be able to recover for hundreds of years. Thain thought of a way A more secure solution.
The purchase of slave creatures required money, and Lu Lianman had no money.
But it is not possible to use the method of hiring to pull these low-level sea tribes and demi-humans onto the chariot.
There is a gem sea next to the Holy Tower of Blue Origin, which can be used as a temporary foothold for sea creatures.
The Land of Green Source is not far from the Dark Territory, where a large number of underground demi-humans inhabit and live.
Including Thane, he thought that hiring these low-level sea tribes and demi-humans would cost nothing, because they could be sent away by sharing profits after the war.
According to Thane's understanding of most demi-humans, as well as the low-level sea people he has come into contact with during this period, these guys who live at the bottom of the wizarding world actually have very low requirements.
