What the sea demon said before he left became true. After half a year, there was no sign of abating. People even began to wonder whether the vortex will disappear one day. At the same time, the food and drinking water reserves of lost heart Bay are deteriorating. After the communication with the outside world is cut off, the largest maritime trading city in western waters is becoming a complete island. Many people try to break through this dilemma when they realize that the situation is urgent. They either sail to sea or climb the mountains behind them. But their results were similar. The people on the sea either lost their lives in the whirlpool, or returned to the harbor with deep despair and broken ships. But they should be glad that those who climb up the mountains are the real bad luck.
"For so many years, no one has ever come to lost heart Bay by land. There is a reason why I told him so long ago. What happened? Did anyone take my advice? No, You don''t have to pay me a cent for this, and I''ll tell you about it, because there''s no benefit to the dead! There are enough dead people in this city. Well, maybe the death rate is still normal here, but now we can''t replenish the staff. Every time I lose one person, it''s more difficult for me to do business! You know what it feels like? It''s like a lump of gull excrement that falls from the sky to your mouth when you leave the soft bed and woman with a good mood of the day and breathe deeply into the sea in the sunshine! And that seagull happens to have a stomach trouble
Lothar rubbed his hair a little painfully, and if he could, he would be happy to let the chattering fellow sleep and beat him on the head with the handle of his Tomahawk. However, he could not do so. After all, the count was not familiar with the road of lost heart Bay. He did not know the city as well as his own town for a month before entering the underground cavity. In the past half a year, Lothar has spent time in bed. It is only in recent days that he can recover his mobility.
"Seriously, can I plug his mouth or break a few bones so he can only scream?" The sailor who was walking beside Lothar rolled his eyes, and he was also quite unhappy with the gossips along the way. This sailor was on the black arrow. To be precise, except for the intelligence dealers, the rest of the team now operating together can be counted as captain haftan''s men. They included Lothar and four other sailors with machetes pinned to their waists. The one who had just rolled his eyes was called mouse.
As the head of the team, Lothar certainly would not allow this to happen. But his patience with Bobcats was almost to the limit. The count pressed the intelligence dealer''s shoulder. "I remember half a month ago, there was no blubber in lost heart Bay. Or can you synthesize it in your own body now
Lothar''s words seemed to stimulate bobcat. He turned around, pressed his hands on the count''s shoulder, and then said word by word, "you know that there was no blubber half a month ago. Do you know how I managed to survive this half month? This boring, damned shit full of fishy smell for half a month? When you''re hanging out with your woman, I''m... "
Before SM finished, Lothar stopped her mouth with a handkerchief. The count can endure a lot of things, but recently he has added quite a few entries to the list of things he can''t stand, most of which are related to net worms. "You have to be respectful when you talk about her. Otherwise, I''ll strip you all later, throw it to the cannibals, and send them some salt and firewood. If you understand, blink. " Bobcat quickly blinked a few eyelids, and finally regained the freedom of its mouth.
The intelligence dealer opened his mouth to say what he wanted to say. However, after half a year''s recuperation, Lothar''s still strong muscles and his Tomahawk in his hand still swallowed the words. I can only murmur, "well, what you say is what you say. You''re the boss here. Anyway, I''m a little intelligence merchant. Now I have to listen to you great Mariners. "
Bobcat''s whispering makes Lothar shrug helplessly. Since he was still in Cang lion, he didn''t like to oppress others. But now the situation in lost heart Bay is indeed the case. The shortage of resources, long-term closure and the inaction of witches'' groups have brought the city to the brink of collapse of order. I mean, even though lost heart Bay was known as a place of disorder before this, as a human city, it can''t really be completely chaotic. In any case, the basic principles prevailing in human society still have to work in this city, otherwise it will not work at all. But now that food and drinking water are scarce, the basic order has begun to crumble under the strong and powerful rule of sorcerers. This is not what people want to see, so led by Captain hafdan, many captains united to form a temporary ruling group. In terms of governance, what they can do is to keep the order of the city to a minimum with the strength of personnel and equipment, so that it will not become a jungle composed of artificial buildings.
However, many things can not be solved by force alone. The shortage of food will cause various problems. One of them is the cannibals in Lothar''s mouth. According to SM, these cannibals were originally barbarians living in the mountains near lost heart Bay. They would mercilessly hunt and kill human beings or other intelligent creatures that entered the territory, and cruelly ate the bodies of their victims. Those who try to cross the mountains are not successful until they meet them. However, the expedition was not completely destroyed. Several survivors became delirious after escaping back to lost heart Bay. The captains did not have the energy to deal with them at that time, so they randomly found a place to lock them up. Now it looks like it was a wrong decision.Cannibals are not cannibals at the beginning. According to the legend of sailors, those who are forced to eat human corpses will slowly mutate, which is the curse of cannibalism. They will gradually lose the ability to eat other food, and eventually become a godless monster. The appearance of these monsters will change with the time they live and the number of times they eat, becoming more and more far away from their original appearance. In many places, this monster is also known as the ghoul.
Rosa has seen ghouls. He did not know whether the legend of the sailors was the origin of the ghouls he knew, or the origin of some of them. In any case, his experience made him volunteer to captain haftan after learning about the terrorist events that were happening in the city. Take out a few monsters that have just transformed into ghouls, and Lothar believes that he has not broken his promise with the webworm.
"Shhh, take it easy. We''re here."
