After waiting for half an hour, Lawrence and the others successfully eliminated all the murlocs that landed and the monsters under their command. At the same time, the sound of gunfire and explosions in the direction of the main position gradually became sparse. It seems that the battle tonight should be over, and this night attack by the fish people can be said to have been a complete failure.

Because Lawrence and the others only had single-digit casualties and none of the injuries were serious, after treating their wounded in a short period of time, they sent a group of medical soldiers with simple medical training Various healing medicines and medical tools went to the direction of the main position, ready to help the port area that seemed to be hit hard just now.

"How is the battlefield cleaned up now?" After seeing off the medical team, Lawrence returned to the fortress at the top of the peninsula, only to see Syfiel and a few soldiers walking into this place with a lot of miscellaneous things. In the fortress, he asked casually, "What are the gains?"

"The battlefield has now been cleaned up more than half, and we can be sure that basically all valuable targets have been cleaned up." Saifei said with a look of helplessness. "But there are too few seized things. Except for the four-armed sofas and the nobles who led the team, and the occasional priests in seaweed robes, there was nothing on them."

Think about it, don’t look at the fact that the Sahua murlocs can establish a tight rule or even a so-called state. But an important problem faced by intelligent creatures living in the ocean is that any metal is extremely expensive for them, and the direct consequence of this is that the production tools are seriously backward, which makes the overall productivity extremely low.

"This is no way. After all, you don't expect them to build a smelting furnace in the sea." Lawrence shrugged helplessly. "It's no wonder that there are basically not many people who take the initiative to clean up the sahua people who live on the shallow sea shelf. It seems that they obviously think that this approach is not worth the gain."

Lawrence looked at most of the trophies that had been found in the corner of this fortress. He had to say that these trophies looked a little embarrassing, and only some of the sea specialties found from priests and nobles could be worth some money. But even this is barely the same as Lawrence's previous consumption of materials.

You must know that the ammunition that Lawrence used before was produced in his own military factory, so it was at the internal price. The overall price was much cheaper than the standard price on the market. In other words, if such a battle is put on others, there is only one way to lose money.

"Actually, it is not impossible for us to get Ben back." At this time, Nora flew in from the gun's eye, holding a bag of seaweed stuffed into a bulging bag. "Before I came here, I specifically checked some information. The reason why humans rarely actively attack this group of Sahua murlocs is that it is difficult for us to move underwater at a depth of several hundred meters."

"As marine intelligent creatures, these sahua fish people often collect various underwater specialties, and those underwater specialties are very valuable to our terrestrial intelligent creatures. As for the wealth we have seized now, it is Because this group of murlocs came out to fight, it is naturally impossible to bring all that much money to themselves."

"If you say that, we can copy their lair after the war is over." Hearing Nora said that Lawrence suddenly thought of a good way, compared to other people who need special magic props or hire someone to enter the water. Casting, he can now summon a phantom that summons a large group of underwater creatures. If you cooperate with Nora who can move freely on the seabed, it may be troublesome to attack the big city of Sahua, but cleaning up other settlements should not be a problem. Big.

"Good idea, and we can also find some allies to help." Saifeier added after Lauren said, "For example, I think the Roka Murloc is a good candidate for cooperation. Because I was cleaning the field just now. At that time, we captured a group of Lorka murlocs in a depression, and they surrendered on their own initiative. And the murloc headed by them wanted to talk to us."

"Oh? Lorca murloc prisoner?" Lawrence immediately became interested when he heard that Saifei said. Because the Sahua murlocs attacked Lawrence tonight, there were too many Roka murlocs in the forward on the flank of their position. In the tradition of the Lorka murlocs, they generally do not violate the well water of the land race.

So after Lawrence heard that there were prisoners, he wanted to talk to them to see what was going on. Maybe he could find out the specific reasons why these Loka murlocs appeared here and figure out a way to get them out of the war.

Probably because the soul comes from other worlds, Lawrence is not a great humanist. In his eyes, as long as he is willing to get along well, he can abide by the rules and assume the same obligations equally. So no matter whether it is human beings or anything else, they are all equal and can obtain equal rights.

Not to mention that war is an act of extreme labor and death, and it is far inferior to peace negotiations in terms of cost and efficiency. Therefore, when dealing with different races, he is more inclined to achieve win-win results through peaceful negotiation. And slowly through economic integration, these different races were finally incorporated into their own system. This is why he successfully organized a multi-ethnic mixed army in such a short time.

It's just that this method of negotiation is ineffective for the Sahua murloc, because the Sahua murloc, like the goblin, has a strong xenophobia, even crazier than the goblin. In their three views, only their own kind can be regarded as real "human beings", and all other creatures are just their food. The only difference is whether to eat it now or eat it later.

But it is also aquatic creature. As a kind of intelligent creature with high IQ, it is impossible not to know the Shahua murloc. Therefore, their appearance in the offensive army this time is probably because they were threatened by the Shahua murlocs in some important aspects before they had to participate in this aggression.

Therefore, after confirming that the various positions have completed the arrangement of the post-war battlefield and are ready to prepare for the next round of battle at any time, Lawrence took Syfiel and the two priests to a temporary prisoner of war camp at the root of the peninsula. China is going to interrogate this group of captives of Loka murlocs.

The so-called temporary prisoner-of-war camp is actually a sea pond temporarily constructed by using depressions. After all, these Loka fish are not suitable for leaving the water for too long. Therefore, after capturing them, the soldiers temporarily dug a trench. Water poured into this depression to create a sea pool the size of two standard pools.

After arriving in a small fortification near this depression ~lightnovelpub.net~ a wet Loka was brought in by two heavily armed tauren fighters. Then, under the effect of the magical magic released by the two priests, Lawrence and the others began to preside over the interrogation of the prisoner.

Unlike the tall and burly Sahua murlocs, the Loka murlocs are just a group of little guys with a little over 1.5 meters. Although they also have a human-like appearance, at first glance you will think they are more like fish than humans.

And from a human point of view, Loka murlocs seem to look the same. The only difference that can be seen is that the female Loka murloc has two more ochre markings that symbolize the ability to spawn.

Therefore, Lawrence took the initiative to observe as soon as the opponent entered the door, but knew nothing about him except to make sure that the Lorca in front of him was a male. Fortunately, the leader of the Lorca captive who came out of the initiative said that he was human. Language, so with his active cooperation, Lawrence and the others finally figured out what the hidden problem was behind this matter.
