Lords of Hegemony: Conquer from the Mermaids

Chapter 19: See Silvertail Again
Meng Zheng and Cang Yue followed from a distance, and the fish people didn't notice them at all.

On the way, Meng Zheng noticed that the fishman was not fast, only half the speed of the gray-tailed mermaid.

The captain of the fishman team obviously wanted to go home quickly, and he kept urging his fishmen to hurry up on the way, so their swimming speed could be clearly seen.

"In the future, we can use the kite-flying method to eliminate the fishmen little by little and increase our winning rate." From a distance, Meng Zheng was already thinking about how to kill these guys at the lowest cost.

After swimming for more than two hours, the fishman team finally arrived at an isolated island. The island was very small, only a few hundred meters wide and one or two meters above the water. There was no vegetation on it, and it was bare everywhere.

But on such a small island, there are at least a thousand mermen living, and the island is densely packed with holes.

Countless fishmen were crowding around on this small island, chattering and making a lot of noise.

The surrounding water surface also became very dirty. The fishermen obviously had no concept of hygiene and urinated and defecated everywhere, so that Meng Zheng could smell a very bad smell from a distance.

Meng Zheng and the other man were so frightened that they swam away quickly.

Except for the troops going out hunting, most of the fish people were soaking in the mud and water, lazily basking in the sun. As long as the boss did not order them to work, they could stay like this until they died.

Of course you have to eat, not a single bite can be missed.

In addition to the team of mermen that Meng Zheng followed, there were also many mermen who swam back from afar and brought back a lot of food.

Whenever these fishmen return, there will be a commotion, and everyone will rush to take fish from the bamboo basket to eat.

From time to time, a few fishmen would fight over food, opening their big mouths and using their sharp teeth to bite each other, leaving them covered in wounds.

There were too many of these guys, densely packed everywhere. Although there were conflicts, they were obviously very restrained, only using fists and feet, not weapons.

"It seems that the leader of this tribe is extraordinary. He can train the cunning and greedy fishmen to this level." Cangyue whispered in Meng Zheng's ear.

"There are too many of them. I can't beat them!" From afar, the merpeople were densely packed. There were merpeople on the shore and in the water.

Meng Zheng gave up the idea of ​​​​subduing this group of murlocs as his subordinates. The Canghai tribe was too small to accommodate this group of murlocs.

According to Meng Zheng's idea, he planned to let Cangyue cast the ocean spell to provoke civil strife among the fish people and then collect a group of slaves.

The Canghai tribe can only give birth to 12 mermaids every day. The population gap is too large. At this rate, it is unknown how long it will take to rule Tianyu Lake.

Therefore, if you want to develop as quickly as possible, you have to keep fighting to capture slaves, fill the population gap of the Canghai tribe, and promote the faster development of the Canghai tribe.

The control range of Cangyue's ocean curse is limited, and it is difficult to cover all the thousands of fishmen.

I can only give up temporarily, keep paying attention, and develop enough strength in the future to deal with this group of fishmen.

Throughout the afternoon, Meng Zheng and Cangyue patrolled around and explored the situation in the northwestern area.

There were no major discoveries afterwards. Apart from discovering an aquatic forest and two kelp forests, there was not much to gain.

This place is too close to the land, and many resource points are occupied by the fish people. Meng Zheng didn't want to expose the existence of the Canghai tribe too quickly, so he didn't get too close.

From now on, Meng Zheng will not send anyone to collect resources within a radius of about 200 miles from here.

He would only arrange patrol Yakshas to monitor the fishmen and ensure that their development is always under his watch.

This trip didn't yield much, and although Meng Zheng was a little disappointed, he also felt very fortunate.

Discovering the existence of the murlocs one step ahead is very important for the development of the Canghai tribe. It identifies dangers in a timely manner and reduces the possibility of being attacked by the enemy.

Back in the territory, ten new mermaid huts have been built. Now there are a total of 125 mermaid huts in the territory, which can accommodate residents, finally alleviating the housing pressure.

The roof of the hydraulic catapult workshop was also completed. It was ten meters high and twenty meters wide, twice the size of an ordinary mermaid shack, making it quite conspicuous. Next to the hydraulic catapult workshop, a pile of azure bamboo, recognizable as Sea Spirit Bamboo, was also built.

"Cang Jing is very quick. He collected a batch of sea spirit bamboo and brought it back to the territory so quickly. Not bad." Meng Zheng nodded with satisfaction.

What the tribe lacks most now is armed forces. The completion of the hydraulic catapult workshop means that the workshop can finally start work and produce the hydraulic catapult, a weapon exclusive to the mermaids.

Then you can form a militia team to conquer monster hordes, resist enemies, and protect the tribe.

Passing the hydraulic catapult workshop, Meng Zheng noticed a commotion ahead.
Next to the mermaid's shack, there was a man with a silver tail, blue hair, muscular build, and who looked like a small mountain and was particularly eye-catching.

He held a trident in his hand and practiced there with great vigor. Every time he swung it, it would raise a wave, making the gray-tailed mermaids dare not approach at all, but watch from afar.

Several female mermaids were clapping and laughing, cheering for the big man and watching him show off.

"Is this, another silver-tailed mermaid spawned for me? Oh my God!" Meng Zheng's face was filled with surprise. In just three days, he had two silver-tailed mermaids. This was even harder than winning the lottery in his previous life!
"Come on, let's go take a look."

As soon as Meng Zheng entered, he was spotted by a gray-tailed mermaid who was watching the fun nearby: "Chief, you're back!"

This exclamation instantly attracted everyone's attention, and they all gathered around.
The silver-tailed man also stopped his trident and swam over.

"Clan leader! You are here!"

"Chief, look how many houses we have built!"

"Chief, Chief..."

There was a lot of noise, and the gray-tailed sharks all greeted Meng Zheng enthusiastically. Jiang Bin, who was giving orders on the other side, also swam over quickly and saluted Meng Zheng.

"Chief, you're finally back! It's almost dark, I was about to send someone to look for you!" Jiang Bin said to Meng Zheng with a sad face.

The chief is a good person, but he rarely stays in the tribe all day long, which makes Jiang Bin dare not make decisions on some matters.

While complaining, Jiang Bin also smiled, supported the silver-tailed man, and said to Meng Zheng: "Chief, another noble has come today, and we have been waiting for you for a long time!"

This silver-tailed mermaid was tall and strong. Standing in front of Meng Zheng, he was half his body taller than him. Meng Zheng estimated that he was at least five meters tall, a giant.

When Meng Zheng stood in front of him, he felt like a little child. He was so tall.

I didn’t feel it from a distance, but now I can feel the hill standing in front of me.

He saluted Meng Zheng innocently and said, "My name is Jiang Tao, nice to meet you, clan leader!"

The rumbling sound made Meng Zheng's ears buzz.

This is underwater, and all the sounds emitted by everyone are sound waves. The fact that Jiang Tao can create such a sound shows how powerful he is.

Every move can create a huge sensation.

Obviously, he is not far from breaking through the Xuan level.

"Hello, Jiang Tao, welcome to the Canghai tribe. I hope you can regard this place as your home in the future." Meng Zheng said to Jiang Tao sincerely.

"Of course, I feel very cordial when I come here, not to mention that with you, the clan leader, here, I will do my best, hahaha..." Jiang Tao laughed, obviously a generous man.

Looking at the tall and strong Jiang Tao in front of him, Meng Zheng was delighted and couldn't help but open Jiang Tao's attribute panel.
