The anger of the people continued to gather, and the whole society of Ascatra became full of unease and violence. This situation is simply the best breeding ground for cult believers, and as long as there is suffering and injustice, then it is inevitable that some people will go astray.

During this period of time, the cults that had lurked in Askatla in the past began to stir up, constantly increasing their strength, and even some of the strange cults of Mo Min also joined in the fun, and some other demon worshippers also began to sow the seeds of chaos in all directions.

Now the whole city is a powder keg that has not yet been lit. It's just that the council and the masked mage's guild are still very strong, suppressing those uneasy factors.

It's a pity that this fragile balance was upset tonight!

When night falls again, the civilian area, which should have been silent, is now bustling.

"My son!! Also my son!! ”

A woman with a slethered face and a thin body that seemed to be about to fall at any moment pulled a guy who looked like a noble servant and cried endlessly!

"Fuck off! You crazy! Who is your son! Uncle Ben doesn't know at all! What are you looking for your son to pull me on? ”

Don't look at that woman's whole body, she doesn't have three taels of flesh, but once she goes crazy, her strength can't even break free from a middle-aged man!

"Give back my son! My son is following you! It was you who said that there was a job for my son to do, so I asked my son to follow you! But he didn't come back to this day! You tell me, what did you do to him!!! The old woman didn't listen to the servant at all, but pulled the guy and screamed frantically for a son.

There were more and more onlookers, and the people who came over looked at the crazy old woman, and their eyes flashed with pity, this kind of thing is not uncommon in Ascatra now, for a piece of bread, countless honest men dare to do anything, even if it is very dangerous. Maybe a man goes out in the morning to earn rations, and in the afternoon he doesn't see anyone alive or dead.

The suffering of the masses is a feast for the upper class. In this stormy period, the demand of the people at the bottom is very low, so low that as long as they don't starve to death, there are many people who are willing to fight for their lives for a piece of bread, so human life is not worth anything at all, and it is also this status quo, and the desires of the upper class are becoming more and more unscrupulous.

For example, the guy dressed as a servant in front of him, in fact, most of the people here know this guy, his name is Corgi, a servant of a baron, and he is usually a small character. But by now, he's become very famous in this place.

Because his master, the baron, is now engaged in human trafficking, and Corgi is down to "take the goods", they want everyone, preferably women, of course, the more beautiful and young the better! After all, women's "goods" are bestsellers no matter what time they are.

Then there are young men, young and strong are the best, and now countless mining workshops need this kind of cheap labor!

Don't say that Amm strictly prohibits slavery, this law has long existed in name only, Amm is rich in natural resources, mines and mines are everywhere, are the miners in these places all wage laborers? What do you think?

In Feren, except for dwarves and kobolds, mining is a very dangerous job for any race, and a random accident underground can kill a group of miners. If all of them were hired laborers, what money would the mine owners make? The wages and compensation alone are enough for the mine owner to pay the bottom down! So those miners were slaves at all from the beginning, and there were more sources.

Some of them were bought, isn't that what the shadow thieves do, and their dark harbor has at least thousands of slaves delivered every day. Some of them are brought from the council in an open and honest manner, and every year Amm will have a lot of robbers, thieves and other criminals who are caught, and these people will be sentenced to hard labor by the court, how to labor, of course, they are sent to the mines, these things are the most inhumane, they can be called as they want, and they are exhausted.

Others are simply forced, such as landless peasants, bankrupt civilians, or simply poor people who are made by some messy means, these people are the worst, others may have the opportunity to leave the mine and be free, but these people are different, those mine owners are absolutely not allowed to let these people leave the mine in order to prevent the council or the paladins from making trouble for them, and their best fate is to stay in the mine for the rest of their lives until they die of exhaustion.

Of course, these people can't be slaves in name, they are registered serious laborers, the kind of people who are employed, and the mine owner will pay them every month. Of course, all this is just on the letter, what it actually looks like, everyone understands it very well.

But no matter how cheap these people are, they still cost money, and a slave is not cheap. But now the city of Ascatra is full of cheap laborers, who can be used for a few pieces of bread, cheaper than slaves, and the conditions of the employment contract are very harsh, and they are basically at their own risk.

And all of a sudden, this kind of labor became even hotter than that of slaves, and, because of the great storm, the present dark harbor was abandoned, and the importation of slaves became very difficult, so some people began to do this kind of business, and the baron was only one of them.

They only need to pay a few pieces of black bread mixed with bran a day to deceive people into their hands, and then rent them to the mine owners, which is a huge profit. And the woman's son was also deceived into working as a miner. It's just that her son is more unlucky and has died in a mining accident.

Seeing more and more people coming around, Corgi was anxious, and he had to recruit "laborers" in this area! If this crazy woman is ruined, what will happen to his future "business"? You know, he has been appreciated by the baron recently because of the number of people he brought back.

"Get out! Where's the crazy woman! Thinking of this, Corgi kicked the woman over.

The woman was kicked out of the way and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately the people around her quickly grabbed her. Ascatra is a cold city, but that doesn't mean it's completely uncompassionate. If this kind of thing were left on the ordinary side, no one would bother with these things, but now it is different, although they don't know what is called the death of a rabbit and a fox, but they know that what happened to this old woman is likely to happen to them, and now many people have entered the mine to work, what if their families or themselves have a mining disaster? Is it also indifferent?

So he stepped forward to help frame the old woman, the so-called empathy, isn't this the case?

"Corgi! Don't overdo it! Aunt Karin's son followed you a few days ago, and now that the people are gone, shouldn't you be responsible? ”

A stocky middle-aged man walked out and pointed to the corgi and said. This person's name is Tatum, he used to be an adventurer, but now he is retired, although his rank is not high, he is very fair and enthusiastic, and he still has a bit of prestige in this area.

Seeing Tatum appear, Corgi reflexively dodged back, he knew that he couldn't beat this Tatum, but he reacted immediately, did he need to be afraid of Tatum? He is now a celebrity next to the baron, with hundreds of laborers under his hands, and more than a dozen followers behind him, he can now also be called a corgi master! Afraid of a retired adventurer? Not at all.

"Tatum, this has nothing to do with you, don't point fingers here! Besides, did you see me taking his son away? Ha! Joke, this poor acid also walks with my corgi master? The son of a crazy woman died, and he also wanted to put it on my Uncle Corgi, it's ridiculous! ”

"You ......" In the face of Corgi's helplessness, Tatum didn't have a problem, he really hadn't seen it with his own eyes, besides, Tatum thought well, the current Corgi is not at all an old adventurer like Tatum can move, not to mention anything else, just say that there are more than a dozen roots behind Corgi, and they can also clean him up.

At this time, the old woman also seemed to be sober, broke free of everyone's support, and rushed to the corgi at once!

"Give back my son!"

Seeing the old woman rushing towards her with red eyes and a face like a demon, Corgi was startled, and then reflexively kicked the old woman in the chest and abdomen, knocking the old woman over.

The woman was kicked over, lying on the ground motionless, blood began to spill from under her, seeing this situation Corgi was stunned, he didn't expect that he would kick people to death, he didn't want to kill people at all, he just wanted to kick this woman away.

Unfortunately, it is no longer up to him to explain.

Tatum immediately ran over and put his hand on the woman's neck, and then his face changed, and he glared at the corgi viciously with red eyes!

"How dare you kill someone!"

People are really dead! Corgi's face immediately turned white with fright! Although Corgi really didn't have the courage to kill people for evil, although there were not a few people killed by him, but he didn't kill it with his own hands, but now he killed people with his own hands!

It took him a long time for Corgi to run away, but as soon as he turned around, a voice immediately came out of his head.

"Why run? Know that their families can eat in your hands, and if anyone dares to resist you, you will throw their family into the most dangerous mines! Besides, if you run away now, will anyone be afraid of you in the future? Will they still listen to you? You're Uncle Corgi now! It's a person with status, and you don't have to care about these mud legs at all! Who hasn't killed a few mud legs? ”

The voice seemed to come from the corgi's heart, or at least that's what the corgi thought. At the same time, he felt that it made sense! The lives of these mud-legged people are only worth a few pieces of black bread, do you need to care?

Thinking of this, Corgi stood up and said to Tatum: "It's just a crazy woman! Kill it, kill it, what can you do with me? And you, you mud-legged people should be honest with me, or your family under me will be like this crazy woman! ”

If someone calms down and looks at Corgi's state now, they will find that he seems to be a little abnormal now, his eyes don't know when, there is a trace of madness, and the whole person starts to dance like crazy as if he has taken drugs.

It's a pity that no one can calm down anymore. There was a lot of anger at the corgi, who not only killed civilians like them, but also threatened their families. So no one noticed that Tatum's eyes were as crazy as Corgi's.
