Chapter 44: Current Situation of Sea Monsters Li Yan was originally expecting some blind robber to jump out and cause trouble, so as to relieve the boredom of traveling day and night, but he didn't want to wait until the caravan entered the southern coastal city.
Now, no little thief dares to come out and play.
Seeing Li Yan sighing there, Lin Na said disdainfully: "Do you think those robbers are fools? They jumped out to rob without looking at anything? Let's not mention that the caravan has the logo of the mercenary guild.
Well, let’s just say that the mercenary group sent by the mercenary guild is a sixth-level mercenary group. Which robber wants to kill him if he thinks he has a long life?"
During these days on the road, Li Yan came out to take a breather and chatted with the members. He also learned a lot about mercenary guilds. All mercenary guilds in big cities have their own exclusive mercenaries.
Groups, and they are at least level five mercenary groups. For example, some mercenary guilds in large cities close to dangerous areas even have exclusive mercenary groups that have reached level six.
Yangan City is a big city, and it is a big city close to dangerous areas such as Qingma Ridge, so the level of the exclusive mercenary group of the mercenary guild here has reached level six! With the protection of the level six mercenary group,
How could an ordinary little thief dare to go up there?
This time, the mercenary guild sent an exclusive mercenary group to protect the caravan. On the one hand, it was to protect the caravan. On the other hand, it was also to gain some benefits from the Warcraft siege. Of course, another purpose was to avoid suspicion.
Although the Kingdom of Skansen is wealthy, it is unwilling to sacrifice too many soldiers' lives for the annual sea monster siege, so it uses financial rewards to attract a large number of mercenaries to resist the sea monster, such as the Starlight mercenaries.
There are naturally no shortage of mercenary groups attracted by generous rewards like the Corps.
As the largest organization in the Kingdom of Skansen, how could the mercenary guild miss such an opportunity to make money? Almost all mercenary guilds in big cities have sent their exclusive mercenary groups here. On the one hand, for
Making money, on the other hand, is actually to express your stance to the people in power in the Kingdom of Skansen.
Look, we have lined up all our mercenary groups, so there will no longer be any doubt that we will rebel?
The existence of mercenary guilds has always been suspected by those in power in various countries. However, because there are truly strong men in the mercenary guilds, even those in power do not dare to touch them easily, so the relationship between the two parties has always been so deadlocked.
With.
In order to lower the vigilance of those in power in various countries, mercenary guilds in different countries do not recognize each other's mercenary levels, and each mercenary guild also tries to lower its profile as much as possible towards those in power in the country where it is located.
Never participate in any internal fighting and strictly abide by the rules set by the major guilds.
In human countries, in addition to the mercenary guilds, there are several other guilds that are also unofficial, such as the magician guild, the fighting master guild, etc. They do not belong to any force and are completely
They independently operate all affairs of the guild, and jointly formulated a series of rules not to participate in the struggle for hegemony. They also have the responsibility to supervise each other. Once any guild violates the rules, it will inevitably be jointly banned by other guilds.
.
It is for this reason that every year when monsters attack coastal cities, mercenary guilds send out exclusive mercenary groups on a large scale.
Ordinary mercenaries and mercenary groups generally deal with low-level sea monsters, while mercenary guild-specific mercenary groups are responsible for dealing with intermediate sea monsters. High-level sea monsters generally rarely appear. After all, the number of high-level sea monsters is also limited.
There are not many, and many of them cannot leave the sea for a long time.
Lin Na's answer couldn't help but surprise Li Yan as to why there was an annual Warcraft siege.
"What other reasons could there be? There are too many monsters in the sea! Monsters on land are generally viviparous, and only a few can be born at one time. Coupled with various accidents that occur during the growth process, the monsters can eventually reach adulthood.
The number of Warcraft has basically remained at a relatively stable level.
But the monsters in the sea are different. Monsters in the sea generally lay eggs, and the lower the level of the monsters, the more eggs they lay at one time. Only when they reach the high-level monsters and super monsters, their fertility level is higher.
Similar to the Warcraft on land, they all remain at a relatively stable number.
It is not unusual for those low-level sea monsters to lay thousands of eggs at a time. Think about it if they all grow to adulthood, what will it be like? Although it is impossible for them all to grow to adulthood, even if there are ten
When one of them reaches adulthood, the number will double in a few years. If they rebel, I'm afraid those high-level sea monsters may not be able to suppress them.
And there is another reason, and that is the problem of things. The food eaten by so many sea monsters every day is an astronomical figure. We don’t think that we can grow crops on land in the sea and feed a population that is several times the capacity of the land.
Food in the sea basically relies on purely natural growth, and there is no way to cultivate and grow it. Therefore, once the quantity is too large, it will cause problems in the food chain in the sea, which is not conducive to the normal development of sea monsters.
In order to solve the food problem and reduce the possibility of sea monsters rioting, the sea monsters siege the city once a year.
If the Sea Monster really wants to capture the land, then the leader should at least be a high-level Sea Monster. It may even be commanded by a Super Sea Monster himself. It is absolutely impossible for an intermediate Sea Monster to attack with a large number of low-level Sea Monsters.
city phenomenon.
In fact, not only the coastal cities of the Kingdom of Skansen will be attacked by sea monsters, but this will happen to any country near the sea. The difference is just whether it is bigger or smaller, and whether it happens once a year or not."
Although Li Yan was surprised by the current situation of the sea monster, what surprised him even more was that these words came from Lin Na. Lin Na's impression of Li Yan had always been lively, cute, youthful and pretty, but there were also some common problems among young girls.
That's because she doesn't have a strong view of the overall situation and doesn't like to waste time worrying about things that have little to do with them. But this time Lin Na's behavior changed unexpectedly. Not only did she speak eloquently, but she was also clear and coherent. It was obvious that she didn't say it in a hot head.
Nonsense, this is very different from Lin Na in Li Yan's impression.
Seeing Li Yan's dumbfounded expression due to surprise, Lin Na felt extremely proud. Ever since she and her sister had a private conversation about girls in Yangan City, the way she looked at Li Yan was obviously different.
Emma said that she might be in love. Lin Na didn't know if she was right, but she did care about Li Yan's words and deeds, and was always influenced by him unconsciously, but Lin Na liked this feeling herself.
Regardless of whether I'm in love or not, I just like the way I feel now, and that's enough!
Lin Na felt a burst of excitement in her heart. She suddenly pointed ahead and said loudly: "Look! That's the city of Pasalaman!"
