Chapter 198 Give Me a Chance
These snake women of the viper clan are much shorter than male snake people, generally 164-167cm tall.
The snake people are good at using poison and like to use knives or daggers as weapons. Male snake people are much taller and stronger than female snake people. They usually serve as warriors. Female snake people are flexible and faster, and they will become assassins.
Hundreds of snake people gathered together, looking at Li Ziyu anxiously, waiting for the judgment of fate.
Seeing that Li Ziyu's eyes were always on his own people, Zhaliqi couldn't help but say, "Sir..."
Li Ziyu withdrew his gaze from the snake woman and looked at Zaliki. He coughed lightly and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's talk about why you and your people came here. Even if you don't know that this is the territory of my Undead Clan, you should know that the Ghost Mountain Range here is a forbidden area, right?"
What is a forbidden area? It is a death zone for the indigenous people in the wilderness. Each forbidden area has different characteristics, but there is one thing in common among all of them, that is, entering the forbidden area is equivalent to seeking death. In addition, each tribe has its own territory, and they will not easily leave.
When Zaliki introduced himself just now, he said very clearly that these snake people belonged to a tribe called Senunnet. Li Ziyu had never heard of this tribe. This was not a tribe around the Ghost Mountains. So why did they come all the way here? Li Ziyu couldn't figure it out.
Zaliki glanced at his people, lowered his head, and said in a sorrowful tone, "Our tribe was attacked. The tribe... is gone."
Li Ziyu nodded in understanding. This situation was quite common. There were no laws in the wilderness. Whoever had the bigger fist had the final say. Tribes being attacked and destroyed would happen from time to time, and that was how many refugees came about.
These snake people probably have no idea where this place is. They just ran towards this side and accidentally entered the undead territory of the Ghost Mountains.
After a brief thought, Li Ziyu said to Zaliki, "I can't let you go any further. So, what are your plans next? Are you going to wander?"
As he spoke, Li Ziyu's eyes drifted towards the snake people again. The snake women were so pretty... Well, it was the snake people who were so pitiful. The homeless children were wandering far away, and their future would not be easy.
The wilderness is like this, cruel and ruthless. Since they are refugees, they attack them even more unscrupulously. Even normal tribesmen will not show mercy to refugees. When facing refugees, they don't mind being robbers. Anyway, no one will care if they bully these poor guys.
Even Li Ziyu was aware of this, so was Zaliki. He had a bold decision to offer his people a way out. Zaliki prostrated himself on the ground, his hands resting on his forehead, as if he were kneeling in worship. "Lord of the Undead, I beg you, I beg you to give us a chance, to give the snake people of the Senunite tribe a chance to survive!"
What's going on?
Why did you suddenly lie down?
Li Ziyu blinked and looked at Tastuling beside him with a puzzled look.
Tastuling quickly explained to Li Ziyu: "This is the highest etiquette of the Snake People, which means complete submission."
Oh, so that's why I was wondering why you suddenly lay down. It turns out it was a ceremony of submission. But I wasn't even shocked at all, and you already submitted?
Li Ziyu slowly said to Zaliki, "You said you wanted me to give you a chance. What kind of chance do you want?"
Zaliki, still lying on the ground, said in a muffled voice, "Let us live in your territory like the Minotaur tribe."
Li Ziyu glanced at Tastulin and saw that Tastulin glanced at the minotaur behind him with a helpless look on his face. He then said to Zaliki, "Do you know why they can coexist with us?"
Zaliki raised his head and shook his head. How would he know? He only knew that the minotaurs lived a good life, and no one told him anything else.
Hey, he knows nothing, yet he dares to say that he wants to live in the territory of the undead. He is really extraordinary. Li Ziyu looked up at the other snakemen behind Zaliki, and saw that their faces were full of confusion and helplessness. Joining the undead was a decision made by Zaliki alone, and he had never discussed it with other snakemen.
Deep down, Li Ziyu did not object to the snake people joining the undead forces, and even welcomed them to live in the fortress.
Although the race under his command is the undead, Li Ziyu himself is a human being. As we all know, humans are social animals who need to communicate and like to be lively. The undead obviously cannot achieve this. Compared with those living races, the undead are silent.
Compared to the hustle and bustle, the undead prefer silent sleep. Even with convenient means of communication such as the soul network, low-level undead rarely communicate. Often only high-level undead will send messages back and forth. This may also be because low-level undead lack wisdom.
Li Ziyu had long had the idea of letting more people live in the fortress, which would make the fortress more "human" instead of cold and inhospitable. The original decision to absorb the Tabu Minotaur was based on this idea.
Moreover, doing so is very beneficial. Even though there are corpses in the Mountains of the Dead now, no matter how many corpses there are, there will be a day when they are all dug up. The Undead have a huge demand for corpses, which can be said to be endless. No matter how many corpses there are, they are not enough for the Undead to consume.
Take the battle against the Cancerous Alliance for example, which consumed millions of low-level skeletons. Based on this calculation, how many such wars can the corpses in the Mountains of the Dead support? What will happen if all the corpses in the Mountains of the Dead are dug up?
