Chapter 136: The Great Slave Owner and the Sleeping Giant

Rumble!

Over the mountains and mountains, a violent explosion seemed to be close at hand, causing Anduin and the others to stop, and the strong impact on the face blew the branches and leaves of the cypress trees to shake more than once, and the snow on the treetops was annihilated by the impact fluctuations at the moment of falling.

Arthas's eyes showed a solemn look, the source of the explosion was at least two mountains away from here, but even so, the violent impact still shook everyone's posture, it can be seen that the two sides who have not yet shown up have definitely reached the legendary level.

The piercing laughter pierced through the forest, making Princess Eliza shudder: "Why is this laughter so infiltrating?" Doesn't sound like it's from a human! ”

"It's a kobold!"

Arthas and Presto were confused, and Anduin suddenly gave the answer: "If I'm not mistaken, one of them is Max, a legendary kobold, proficient in potions, and known as the mushroom dealer by the kobolds." ”

Yes, the owner of this laugh was none other than Max, the mushroom dealer who had been taken away by the kobold king, but what he couldn't figure out was how Max escaped Towager's punishment and why he happened to be in this place?

Anduin's answer surprised everyone, although they were curious, but they didn't have time to get to the bottom of it, Presto held the steel sword in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "There are at least two legends ahead, beyond our tolerance limit, Arthas, we better go back!" ”

Hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince picked up the knight's war hammer - Holy Light Revenge, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of eager excitement: "It's all here, isn't it a pity to go back like this?" The battles of the legendary powerhouses are too boring if there is no audience. ”

Anduin frowned, always feeling that this matter was too coincidental, and immediately spoke to dissuade him, but as soon as his words fell, Eliza jumped out to express her objections, and after speaking, the princess of the empire deliberately said: "If you want to go back, no one will stop you, and you will say that you are the embodiment of the Holy Light, but you are just a coward!" ”

Arthas saw Anduin's face sank, but he stood on Eliza's side, and took a firm step: "The bottom of the mountain is to fill the settlement, as a prince, I can't run away from the wind, no matter what, I should find out the situation, Anduin, I hope you can follow." ”

While speaking, Eliza glanced at Anduin intentionally, turned her head to catch up with Arthas's figure, Presto saw Anduin's hesitation, and persuaded him: "Count Anduin, Arthas has a different identity after all, so he can't just think about his own safety, you ......"

"Don't talk about it."

Anduin narrowed his eyes and turned decisively, Presto opened his mouth, but he couldn't get out of the way, shook his head, and climbed over the hill to catch up with Arthas and Eliza.

The two of them were a little surprised to see that Anduin did not come, and Eliza did not expect that her radical method failed, and she was very annoyed: "I didn't expect him to be really a coward!" ”

Yesterday, Anduin refused Eliza's escort request in a very tough tone, which made her remember it in her heart, and vowed to let Anduin taste the bitterness, who would have thought that Anduin really chose to retreat and leave everyone alone, which made her feel very disdainful: "When I return to the imperial capital, I must expose this cowardly fellow, in the face of an emergency that may endanger the people, he, as the embodiment of the Holy Light, left without looking back!" ”

Arthas was also angry with Anduin's choice, and he chose to move forward for his own legitimate reasons, not just out of curiosity, but also because he regarded him as the embodiment of the Light, but ignored his last request.

Shaking his head, Alsace's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he didn't count Anduin, but looked ahead with a firm gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Forget it, no matter him, if you turn over this mountain, you can see the battlefield immediately, let's act carefully, we must not expose our traces, no matter what the other party says, he is also a legendary powerhouse, don't take it lightly." ”

Presto and Eliza nodded heavily, and then took light steps and climbed up the hill, but the three of them did not notice that a dark shadow was shuttling through the trees, closely following them.

"How's the battlefield going?"

Anduin, lurking in the shadows with the Shadow Walk, asked silently, ignoring Arthas and Eliza's complaints, as this is a reasonable and normal performance, as for going and returning this time, it is by no means "superfluous", because the system has found something unusual.

[According to the energy feedback, there are three legends in the battlefield, but the strange thing is that the third legendary powerhouse chose to stand by and watch, and he had no intention of doing anything at all. 】

"Why is this happening?"

Doubting in his heart, Anduin sped up his shuttle, avoiding the three Arthas, and came to the side of the hill to see the whole battlefield in the valley.

At this moment, Max, the ragged and sloppy mushroom dealer, was taking out fluorescent potions of different colors from time to time from his shabby coat, either smashing them at his opponents, throwing them at his feet, or raising his head to drink them.

But the reality is that a burly orc is holding a double-edged battle axe, frantically slashing at him, if it weren't for Max's potion to delay the pace of the opponent's attack and increase his strength, he would have been cut in half by the razoraxe blade. The orc, with his black braids, was so strong that Anduin couldn't help but smack his tongue, and his body was taller than Orgrim's, a stark contrast to the thin and stiff Max, a giant and a dwarf.

At the same time, Anduin saw a third legendary powerhouse outside the battlefield, a middle-aged human with black hair in a shawl, who crossed his arms and watched from the wall, as if admiring a cruel fight that would determine life and death, and when he saw the orcs break through the potion blockade or Max escaped, there would be a slight smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely indifferent, especially the left eye with a striking scar, which was extremely cold.

"Big Slave Master Blackmore, why did he suddenly appear here?"

Eliza's whispered exclamation reached Anduin's ears, instantly reminding him of the man's identity.

The slave market of the Holy Empire is firmly controlled by various forces, and each slave owner who is entrenched in one side has more or less imperial background, and the most famous of them is the big slave owner in front of him, Blackmore, who used to be a soldier, and after retiring, he relied on military relations to run a slave business, and finally relied on strong and vicious personal means to control the largest central market in his own hands.

It stands to reason that such a giant should be in the bloody Colosseum known to the world on the northern outskirts of the capital, but for some reason, he came to the territory of the Silver Fortress.

Looking at the burly body of the orc warrior, Arthas clenched the Warhammer Holy Light for revenge, and his eyes flashed with excitement: "I have long heard that Blackmore secretly cultivates a powerful orc gladiator, it seems that it should be him!" Presto, when you are promoted to legend, are you sure to challenge him? ”

Presto's eyes showed a complicated color, and he slowly shook his head: "No, with strength alone, I am far from his opponent, this legendary orc's combat skills, under Blackmore's tutelage, have been perfected, unless I can master a very powerful legendary ability, there is no chance of winning!" ”

In contrast, Eliza is more concerned about the mushroom dealer Max, who is down, and her eyes keenly capture the back of the kobold's left hand, there is a clear mark, and the meaning of this mark pattern is slave.

Such a discovery made the princess of the empire change color, Eliza frowned, suppressed and shocked: "Blackmore is really a person with all means, this legendary kobold named Max is actually his slave!" ”

"But this slave doesn't seem to be very obedient."

Anduin, lurking in the shadows, said quietly: "It seems that the kobold king sold this mushroom dealer to the big slave owner, and wanted to vent his anger in this way?" ”

[But I think it should be Towager who accepted an offer that I couldn't refuse.] 】

Anduin nodded slightly, remembering the kobold king's money-loving character, thinking that the truth was probably eight / nine is not far from ten, but such a discovery only answered an irrelevant question, you must know that the mushroom dealer was taken away by the kobold king a few days ago, according to the speed of the rail minecart, he had already left the area of the Silver Fortress, not to mention how Blake Moore coincidentally bought Max, just at this time period, appearing near the Silver Fortress, it was extremely suspicious.

The legendary kobold's potion is not endless, and in front of the orc warriors, it is impossible to gain the upper hand for a moment, the two have been fighting for a long time, and the battlefield has not left the valley at all, indicating that the mushroom dealer Max did not flee here, but was deliberately brought here by Blackmore, perhaps because of fate, Max set off a slave uprising, which led to the battle in the valley.

The next scene confirmed Anduin's suspicions.

Just when Arthas and the others were watching the battle of the legendary powerhouse with great interest, the big slave owner Blackmore showed a smile, he moved his gaze and saw the three faces hiding behind the bushes, and then his body moved, he crossed the void and appeared in front of the three of them, looking at the few people who were taken aback, and sneered indifferently: "According to the rules, the entrance fee for the legendary battle, 10,000 gold coins per person, which of you will pay?" ”

Now that it was discovered, Arthas simply no longer hid, standing tall and fearless: "Lord Blackmore, you should be the first to pay a venue fee for holding a legendary duel in the territory of the Silver Fortress. ”

The witty response to Arthas made the big slave owner start laughing: "Prince Arthas, you are much better than the rumors, and there are few who dare to bargain in front of me. ”

Then, Blackmore looked at Princess Eliza, with an undisguised look of appreciation in his eyes, bowed his head slightly, and said softly: "I have seen Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

"Excuse me!" The princess of the empire raised her white jade neck again, rushed to the battlefield in the valley, and said puzzledly, "Blackmore, you really have the leisure to let two slaves fight and duel in this deserted mountain, why, is there a problem with the new slave you bought?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, what an insight."

Blackmore smiled lightly: "The kobold I just bought, I didn't have time to strengthen the slave seal, and I accidentally caused a mess, I am telling my subordinates to take care of it, and after a while, I can make him suffer from rebellion." ”

The conversation at the top of the mountain reached the ears of the mushroom dealer Max, and in the face of the unparalleled orc warrior, he actually responded distractedly: "Don't dream, stupid human, genius Max, it is impossible to become a slave, you and this stupid orc, you haven't even found out until now, why did I choose to break the seal here?" ”

As he spoke, the kobold slammed down another bottle of crystal elixir, and then he asked himself and explained the reason: "Because I smell the breath of ancient creatures here!" ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone felt a shake, and the system suddenly gave a prompt.

[There is an unknown energy source, which is growing rapidly, and the location is in this valley! ] 】

"I don't need you to say it, I know it!"

Anduin said coldly, just because at the place where Max finally smashed the potion, a deep crack appeared, and just as the orc warrior was about to swing his battle axe and slash at the head of the mushroom dealer, a huge palm made entirely of rocks suddenly stretched out from the crack, and with only one finger, it completely blocked the fierce attack of the legendary orc.

If it was said that the orc warrior was a real giant in front of Max, then what kind of majestic existence should this ancient creature that was larger than the orcs by just his fingers?

Thundered!

The earthquake became more and more violent, and the few people standing on the top of the hill could not even stabilize their bodies.

Blackmore, the great slave owner, did not have a calm look on his face, looking at the rock giant who was gradually revealing his figure, his eyes flashed with a bright light: "Sure enough, my decision to buy Max for a lot of money was right, he actually has the ability to find and awaken the legendary mountain giant, this is comparable to ......"

The Great Slave Master didn't finish his sentence, and immediately thought about how to take the legend that was rarer than the dragon and take it into slavery.

It's just that the direction of things is obviously much beyond his expectations, because in this area, there is more than one mountain giant sleeping, and Marx's awakening potion has not only affected an ancient creature.

The more and more violent earthquakes made Arthas and the others lose their foothold, and as the mountain giants suddenly stood up in the cold wind, the incomparably deep underground gate also appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing the familiar underground world, the mushroom dealer Max, as if he was like a fish in water, laughed and jumped into it, how could Blackmore let the slave escape? Immediately ordered the legendary orcs to launch a pursuit, as for himself, he temporarily restrained the idea of enslaving the mountain giants, turned his head to look at Arthas and Eliza who were fleeing in a hurry, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and then he showed a look of gritted teeth.

Just because a mountain giant, so immortal sleeping near the mountain, as it quietly woke up, it also completely made Arthas and others lose their hiding space, and fell into the abyss, the big slave owner noticed that the ancient creatures were looking at him, and suddenly his heart sank, remembering his main mission here, he gritted his teeth and flew away, and disappeared into the abyss gate in an instant.

And Anduin's speed was one step faster than him, and at the same time that Arthas and the others stumbled, he melted into the endless darkness, and he did this, not only to rescue a few people, but also to find out the truth of the mystery.

As for the gentle mountain giants, they were not furious because of their slumber, and when Max's potion failed, they returned to their sleeping places, fell into a long sleep again, and closed the dark gate with their majestic bodies......
