Chapter 716: Slave Boy

The shackles of the coffin used to lock the energy of Zelas's soul slowly disintegrated, and under his horrified gaze, the unshackled figure gradually distorted, turning into an irregular cloud of energy that changed every moment.

The thought that his body could dissipate at any moment due to disintegration led him into a rage and roared at the goddess Acacia, threatening her to withdraw the spell on him.

Selectively ignoring Zelas's impotent rage, the goddess turned to look at the fox fairy in the middle of the lake.

The murky language of Acacia spat out of her wriggling lips, and the body of the fox fairy, covered in ice water, was once again covered in ice and slowly sank to the bottom of the lake.

Circles of water ripples frequently appeared on the surface of the lake, and then eased down as the fox fairy completely sank to the bottom of the lake.

When the last ripples of Mirror Moon Lake disappeared, the goddess noticed that Zelas had been roaring at her.

The stunned expression of her red lips slightly opened saw that Ye Feng couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud.

Sivir covered his mouth and whispered a warning to Ye Feng, who didn't know which tendon was wrong, not to laugh at the goddess Acacia.

Little Soraka on the side was amused when he saw Ye Feng's funny appearance of being covered by Xavier's mouth, and he was amused.

Seeing the scene of Ye Feng and a few people laughing, the goddess also recalled some of the past events when she was young. She also smiled slightly: "Let him smile, it's okay!"

Zelas, who had been ignored for a long time, saw that Goddess Acacia, Ye Feng and the others were still talking and laughing in front of him, and the anger in his heart became even stronger. He continued to threaten: "Don't give me a chance to recover, I'm going to make you miserable!"

Lulu, who was the least daring, hurriedly shrank behind Ye Feng, clinging to Ye Feng and said in fear: "Brother Ye Feng, that monster is so fierce!"

Rubbing Lulu's little head, Ye Feng comforted Lulu Zelas that he was now imprisoned by the magic of the goddess Acacia, and he couldn't hurt them.

Although she heard that Zelas was imprisoned, because of the shadow that Zelas had left on her before, she still timidly hid behind Ye Feng, peeking at her from time to time.

Seeing that such a cute yodel girl as Lulu was scared like this by Zeroth, the goddess Acacia looked at Zeroth with a solemn expression and said, "Do you know what's wrong?"

"Wrong? Joke! Zelas snorted contemptuously, he didn't think he was wrong.

Seeing that Zelas was stubborn, there was also a faint hint of anger in the solemn pupils of the goddess. She snorted coldly, and then Zeroth's irregular cloud of energy was pulled by her towards the sky above Mirror Moon Lake.

Due to curiosity, the nervous Ye Feng walked to the shore of the lake with a big grin, wanting to see what the goddess would do with Zelas.

He secretly said in his heart that Ye Feng didn't know how to measure inches, and Xiwei, who was afraid that he would cause trouble, also followed.

"Sister Lulu, let's go take a look!" Little Soraka looked up, her big eyes sparkling, and she was cute.

After speaking, she also greeted Amumu and pushed the reluctant Lulu towards the shore of the lake together.

"Since you refuse to admit your mistake, let me help you review it!"

Coldly dropping a sentence, the goddess Acacia reprinted the magic seal with both hands, chanting Acacia's incantation in her mouth, and a trace of purple earth star power lingered on the Mirror Moon Lake.

The thread of star power stirred the lake water, causing ripples, and the reflection of Zelas in the energy form in the lake water also fluctuated.

Illusory magic grows, and a dark-skinned Shurima boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old appears in the mirror image of the lake.

The boy was skinny, his pupils were dull, and his empty eyes revealed his numb look. The clothes on his body were tattered, his bones and cheeks were stained with mud and stains, and his dirty appearance was not much worse than that of the poor people in the slums of Zhizu'an.

Seeing the dirty Shurima boy in the lake, Lulu's compassion overflowed. Forgetting Zelas for the time being, she shook Ye Feng's arm and pouted, "Brother Ye Feng, that young man is so pitiful!"

Nodding movingly, hesitating, Ye Feng looked at the plain face of the goddess Acacia beside him, and asked, "Is that Zelas?"

The goddess Acacia didn't reply, but her slight bow was telling everyone that the scrawny Shurima boy was Zeroth.

Unexpectedly, the poor teenager was the stinky monster Zeroth she hated, and Lulu's courage became smaller again. She continued to shake Ye Feng's arm and said in a low voice, "That stinky monster used to be so pitiful......

"What are you doing!"

It was not uncommon for Zelas to sympathize with him, and the thought that his past would be known to those in front of him gave him a rare expression of trepidation.

Ignoring Zeroth, the face of the goddess Acacia could not see the slightest change in expression, and she continued to use her magic to make Mirror Moon Lake reveal Zeroth's past.

In a huge Gushurima-style farm, many slaves with shackles on their feet are doing farm work under the whip of the farmer.

A scrawny boy fell into the field due to physical exhaustion, and was unable to get up for a while.

The farmer not only showed no mercy, but frantically waved his leather whip and whipped the fallen boy. The farmer scolded the boy while scolding him for falling and crushing his field, and told the boy to get up and plough the crop.

The boy begged desperately for mercy, but in exchange for repeated beatings from the ugly farmer, he finally fainted.

When the farmer saw that the boy had fainted, he couldn't help but curse the waste. In disgust, he motioned for the others to carry the boy out of his farm, he didn't want to find a doctor for the boy who couldn't help him.

The boy was abandoned in the wilderness by the farmer's other slaves, and by the time he woke up it was evening. He wanted to shout excitedly that he was free, but the cold shackles on his feet reminded him that he was still a slave.

Since he hadn't eaten much in days, the boy touched his empty stomach and struggled to get up to find some wild fruit to eat nearby.

But as he walked, the boy was attracted by the smell of barbecue. Following the lingering fragrance on the tip of his nose, the boy soon found a group of richly dressed people talking and laughing around the fire.

Sensing that someone was approaching, the man in the guard costume immediately stood up and held the boy down menacingly.

The boy was frightened and hurriedly begged for mercy, saying that he was not a bad person. At this moment, a young girl as old as a teenager by the fire motioned for the guard to retreat.

The girl's bright eyes lit up in the light of the fire, and she curiously asked about the boy, and told him that her name was Cathy, a nobleman in the imperial city, and that she was happy to take him in.

Upon hearing that Cathy was willing to take him in, the boy excitedly told Cathy that his name was Zeroth, and said that he would try his best to serve the nobleman where the girl was.

And the others around Cathy saw the slave boy she had taken, but there was a hint of disdain for Zelas's identity in their eyes. Some people have even thought about making it difficult for this lucky slave when they return to the imperial city.
