Chapter 371: Heroic Tribute

"This tattered life experience!"

Sleeping on a stone bed made of straw, the Duke said with his teeth bared.

This can't be blamed for being too arrogant, the main thing is to sleep with this thing, it's really embarrassing!

I don't know if the stone bed was built by that idiot, it was originally uneven, and then covered with this burr straw, the feeling of lying on it will definitely make you doubt life.

However, this kind of scolding stone bed is already the most luxurious accommodation room on Kasos Island.

In these years, there is no money at all in the hotel inn or something, if everyone is sleepy at night, they will basically put their clothes together and find an open space to sleep directly, and no one will take care of it anyway.

It's just that if you wake up and find that you have been kidnapped and sold as a slave, you can only blame your life.

Seeing that the distinguished guest had already gotten up, the owner of the inn, the part-time junior, hurriedly walked to the stone pillar outside the door and untied the slave tied to it.

After entering the city yesterday afternoon, Conrad went directly to the slave market and bought two slaves, both of whom were almost forty years old, so the price was cheap to death, two silver coins each.

And this inn where the cheating daddy died, a stone bed that makes people doubt life, and a breakfast made of unknown materials, cost a silver coin.

It can be seen that this old slave is indeed a bargain!

Slaves are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the price of the beautiful female slave is naturally the highest, and the price of the sturdy male ** is not low, and the rest are those craftsmen and slaves who have mastered the craft.

As for the old male ** who was about to be scrapped that the Duke bought, basically no one wanted it, and the price of two silver coins was deliberately raised by the merchant who saw him as a little white.

Swallowing the mess of barbecue and throwing the remaining bones at his slaves, the Duke felt it was time for him to leave the broken island.

Kasos Island is located in the middle of nowhere, and there is no way to find even if you want to find information.

I still hurried to the Kingdom of Crete to have a look, it is said that it is a superpower, and there should be more important information.

Of course, Conrad would never admit that he was frightened by the sad accommodation on this island.

Not to mention the velvet bed, why don't you have a wooden bed!

What's going on with this stone bed?

There were caravans between the island of Kasos and the kingdom of Crete, and after spending fifty silver coins on a ticket, the Duke found that he was running out of coins in his pocket.

Anyway, isn't this ticket a little too dark?

Aboard the ship with the two slaves, Conrad began to look at it with a little curiosity.

It was a merchant ship that was mainly responsible for transporting some of the specialties of Kasos to the Kingdom of Crete, and then from there to the other affiliated islands.

He bought the most high-end tickets, so he could roam freely on the deck, and the two slaves, named Ah Da Ah Er, were stuffed directly to the bottom of the cabin and sealed inside with the cargo.

Hundreds of slaves were crammed into a small cabin, and the environment inside was terrifying to think about.

But it doesn't matter, the slave is not a human being, even if he dies, no one cares, and at most he will compensate the master with two dollars.

The front and back of this ship were only about 40 meters long and more than 10 meters wide, so it took me two steps to walk around the boat.

There is no fixed plot in the legend, I haven't met the daughter who ran away from home, I haven't met the old man with unique skills, and I haven't met the gentleman who doesn't have long eyes and the boy who has a deep hatred of blood.

In addition to the original members of the caravan, there are only a few passengers on the entire ship, and they don't look like some mission NPCs.

"Great Lord Skula, your pious people offer you sacrifices, please bless us!"

At the bow of the ship, the leader of the caravan was holding a sacrificial ceremony, two slaves and a pig were hanging from the ship, and three sympathetic creatures were shivering.

The caravan guards were all used to it, and the three guards held spears and pierced the sacrifice expressionlessly, and the bright red blood was suddenly sprinkled on the blue sea.

"Skula? What kind of god is this? Conrad, who was touching his chin and watching the play next to him, muttered to himself with some confusion.

Shouldn't the god of the sea in Greek mythology be Poseidon? What kind of fellow is this caravan sacrificial?

As for the caravan sacrifice before sailing, this is a traditional event, and even in the 21st century, many places have this rule before going to sea.

It's just that there will never be any living people among those sacrifices!

"Your Excellency is not a Cretan?" The young man standing next to Conrad asked curiously.

"It's not!" The Duke shook his head, the young man's name was Hercas, and he was said to be a ranger from Sicily.

Of course, the identity of the other party will definitely not be as he said, but Conrad doesn't bother to care about what the other party has in the same conspiracy.

He's not the kind of person who has nothing to do to dig side quests!

"Skula is a god who lives in the Strait of Kasos, she controls most of the Strait of Kasos, and caravans go to sea here, so naturally they need to sacrifice her!" Herkas looked like a self-acquaintance, and seeing that Conrad didn't seem to know the doorway, he opened his mouth to explain.

Although Poseidon, the god of the sea, is in charge of the sea for thousands of miles, but the sea is so big, it is impossible for him to control it all.

Therefore, these large and small sea areas are occupied by all kinds of chaotic gods or demons, but they are still under the command of the sea god in terms of face.

As a caravan roaming the seas all year round, the most important thing to pay attention to is to familiarize yourself with the sphere of influence of the god in that area, if you get the name of the god wrong, you will make a big mistake.

"Is Your Majesty going to the Kingdom of Crete to attend the Hero's Sacrifice?" Hercas, who clearly had the potential to talk, asked Conrad.

"Well, I'm going to check it out." As for the so-called heroic memorial of the Kingdom of Crete, the Duke had already asked someone on the island of Kasos yesterday.

The Heroes' Celebration was the biggest celebration of the Athenian city-state, held once a year by the ten city-states in turn, and this year it was the turn of the Kingdom of Crete.

"I think Your Excellency has a strong physique, and you can definitely become a hero!" Herkas glanced up at Conrad and said in an envious tone.

He is 1.85 meters tall, and he is tall and mighty in his hometown, and he has rarely seen anyone who can compare with him physically.

But who would have thought that in a remote place like Kasos, he would meet a strange guy who is much stronger than himself regardless of height and physique.

Look at the other party's muscles, even the leather armor can't cover it, and it is so white and exposed outside, which is really daunting!

'Made, this rag is so embarrassing! ’

The Duke, who really didn't have the right clothes, cursed in his heart.
