Fahd led Muhadi through the tents, and now it was completely dark and there was hardly anyone to be seen. Only in the middle of the tribe there was a fire in the clearing, around which a circle of young elves sang a traditional elven song known as the "fire song".

This music is characterized by melodious twists and turns, impassioned openings. But the end of the fire song is often sad and sad, as if mourning the fate of the past. Some people say that the reason why the fire song formed this characteristic is closely related to the fate of the elven race and the world of Atas. The fire song is an epic of the elves, singing about the glory of the elves and the beauty of Atas, and the desolate and energetic ending seems to be a commentary on the broken and cold reality of Atas.

Of course, this is not the case with all fire songs. For example, many peoples in the desert have legends about the savior of the end of the world, the mortal, and there are also several fire songs that praise the final rise of the mortal to save the world.

Fahd took Muhadi around and finally came to a giant tent with many colorful flags. Even at night, the tent looks bright and dazzling, and I don't know how to light it inside.

When he got closer, Muhati realized that this tent was the one that the annoying Hassan frequented, and asked suspiciously. "What kind of place is this? Is it Hassan's home?"

"Hahaha, Hassan's home!" Fahd was amused, "I can't imagine that you still hate him, the most mean." ”

How mean? Muhadi was puzzled, but Fahd was quick to explain. "It's a brothel, a brothel! Look at you, you've probably never been to it before!"

If it weren't for Muhadi's thick skin, he would have blushed by now. "I don't have the money to come to a place like this. ”

"How can that be, I don't think you've ridden anyone in days. My girl, what she said was powerful, in fact, I think she has a special feeling for you, but she can't let go. Fahd then said earnestly, "O Muhadi, you must know that a man must use his words more to become strong and courageous. If you don't use it, the conversation will get smaller and smaller. When you want to get rid of it one day, you won't be able to find it!"

Muhati was speechless for a moment, but thinking about it, he was in another world now, and there was no need to deliberately suppress himself. Haven't you already decided to fully integrate into the world?

With this in mind, the boy followed Fahd into the tent.

The tent was surprisingly large, accommodating at least a hundred people, with several single rooms separated by curtains, and two long tables in the middle, with a circle of people seated.

On each table were a girl, an elf, and a human

They danced a seductive belly dance, and a circle of men around them shouted and screamed, all in high spirits, calling for them to take off one more, one more.

All around, there are **males and **females, elves, humans, and even the Muors. Some were reserved and hid in a cubicle, but the sound still spread unhindered. Some simply rode in full view of everyone, not caring that there were people around them.

Muhati tried his best to stay in shape, but when he saw this glamorous and hot scene, he couldn't help but react.

Fahd, who seemed to be a regular visitor to the place, greeted the people around him easily, waved away a woman who had leaned up, and then pulled Muhati into a cubicle.

"Most of them are prisoners of war captured in tribal warfare. Fahd said casually, "But there are also debt slaves and indentured slaves. ”

"Well, it's very safe, you can talk about anything you want. ”

"Here...... Aren't you afraid of being heard?"

"Just keep it quiet, it's always noisy and no one listens. If a grain of sand is hidden in the desert, it will be truly traceless. ”

Muhadi nodded silently and listened to Fahd. "As for the question you asked me, there is a solution. ”

"According to tribal law, slaves cannot be emancipated without the consent of their masters. And I'm 100% sure that Fatoumah won't liberate you. ”

"Besides, you can't be free by duel with your master. First, you can't beat Fatoumah, and second, I won't allow you to kill my sister. ”

"However, tribal laws are naturally only effective in the tribe, and when you leave the tribe, you naturally can't bind you, right?"

Muhati was in disbelief. "You don't think you're trying to persuade me to flee to the desert, for if I'm alone, I won't survive the time when the sun rises and sets three times. ”

"No, no, no! you misunderstood," Fahd looked a little absent-minded, but also thoughtful. "You funny human, I'm not going to let you out of the tribe. ”

"As you remember, we picked you up on our way to catch up with a caravan. ”

"Yes, that's right. ”

"You know, we don't usually go to harass the merchants in the vicinity of the tribe, because that scares people away, and no one comes to do business, and we suffer. Have you ever wondered why we were chasing a caravan that time?"

In fact, Muhati secretly wondered many times why he happened to be rescued by someone in the depths of the desert, where no one would necessarily pass by for months. But I couldn't find a reason.

"Actually, the chief was against that action. It was the 'red hand' of the tribe who took advantage of the chief's absence to take over the work himself. And the reason why they attacked that caravan was not to rob money, but to kill it. ”

"Silence?!"

"Yes, you know that something big happened to the nearby city-state of Tyre. The Witch King Karak was overthrown and slavery was abolished. ”

Muhadi did business in the bazaar every day, and the gossip of the merchants was heard a lot, but he also knew about it, so he nodded.

"Then you also know that the witch kings usually go their own way and intrigue one by one. But as a class, the witch kings do not want to see the emergence of forces that can overthrow them. It was bound to be directed against the nascent Tyre regime. What's more, Tyre's revolution produced gladiators, and the Guardian Alliance intervened, and the Karak Witch King, I heard that he died at the hands of the Coral Witch of the Guardian Alliance. ”

In Attas, magic is a very powerful force, and the mages are much stronger than their counterparts in fantasy novels on Earth. But the price of casting the spell is to extract the life force of the planet, which also leads to the complete desertification of the surface of Atas. However, later a person of insight recognized this problem, and a new mage faction, the Guardians, was exhibited. Although the Guardians cast spells to extract life force, they will not drain the life around them, but leave them a chance to recover, and some extreme Guardians even choose to extract their own life force so as not to endanger the environment. And the old mages were called the natural blasphemers, or simply the blasphemers, and the witch kings were blasphemers. Between the Guardian Alliance and the Witch King, the endless fight to the death has lasted for countless millennia.

Muhati also somewhat understood the common sense of the Attas world. So it wasn't surprising to hear that there were Guardians involved in overthrowing the Witch King. And it is normal for the Witch Kings to want to kill this achievement of the Guardian Alliance.

"Speaking of which, the Karak Witch King may have done the opposite, but he has protected the city for thousands of years. Invading from foreign enemies. Now that Tyr has lost the Witch King, it is equivalent to losing most of the combat effectiveness, and the surrounding Witch Kings are happy to hunt and want to annex Tyr. Yurik's witch king was the most proactive, Nibenai followed, and even the maverick guy from Ankara also went into battle. The Witch Kings are planning to organize an alliance and destroy Tyr when the time comes. ”

"Didn't you say that the Witch King of Karak was killed by the Coral Witch, since she could kill the Witch King, she was naturally not afraid of other Witch Kings. ”

"She's still far off, and rumors say that she joined forces with someone to take advantage of Karak's spell to perform a ritual. Magic and magic interfere, the ritual fails, and Karak is blown up by the magic feedback. In a one-on-one duel, she is by no means an opponent of any witch king. ”

The difference between Atas and the earth is that the power of the individual can be terrifying, and the so-called tyrants on the earth actually have to rely on their subordinates and the system of government to maintain their rule. It doesn't mean that the tyrant's individual lì has become particularly strong, such as being particularly strong or something. In Attas, the Witch King alone is equivalent to a mobile nuclear weapon, and no matter how many mortals form an army, it is meaningless in front of the Witch King's magic, which is why most of the Witch Kings are tyrannical and bloodthirsty, but they still rule firmly for countless years.

"Well, what does this have to do with me wanting to be free? Tyre is revolutionary, you don't think the Scorpion tribe wants to revolution, right? ”

Fahd laughed, "I would like to, but it's not realistic. ”

"Keep listening to me, Muhadi. ”

"The Witch Kings are going to join forces to attack Tyr, and Tyr naturally can't sit still. Now the Provisional Council of Tyre is frantically looking for allies, not to mention, they really have a lot of allies. ”

"First, the Guardian Alliance will definitely help, and their mages from all over the country are rushing to Tyre. Secondly, several major business families are also interested in joining, because they are happy to see the Witch King overthrown and the aristocratic class finished. ”

The witch kings of Atas lived for a long time, so they often had many children, and these heirs formed the aristocratic class of Atas, who were treacherous and cunning, incorruptible and shameless, and oppressed merchants by virtue of their privileges. So Muhati understands why the business family would be happy to see the Witch King overthrown.

"But the most important thing is the underground city of Araki in the north. It's a different kind of place, where everybody knows it's in zài, but they don't know where it is. It's an alternative in the desert, ruled by a bunch of eccentric psychic manilocks. If Tyre could get their help, it would still be able to fight. ”

So Tyr secretly sent a number of messengers to ask for help. And the witch kings bought the tribes in the desert to rob and kill the messengers. The 'red hand' took over such a job. ”

Muhadi understood a little, but he was still a little unclear, "I still don't see what this has to do with my freedom." ”

Fahd said, "The 'red hands' took matters into their own hands, and the sheikh did not agree. Although Tyr can't defeat the Witch King's coalition, he is not a soft persimmon, and they are already angry when they have robbed and killed the messenger. Our Scorpio's previous work, which was secretive on the surface, turned out to be exposed. No, Tyre came to the messenger and asked Chief Abiad why he dared to rob and kill the envoy of Tyre. If we don't give an answer, we will send troops to destroy us. ”

"So, these days, the chief and Fatumah have been busy dealing with the messengers of Tyre. But that wasn't enough, and Tyre asked us to send someone to the city to formally conclude an agreement. ”

"So now the opportunity has come, and the chief doesn't want to send the elves of the tribe. If the Witch King's coalition wins, won't they be wiped out. But he didn't dare not send someone, because if he didn't, the witch king wouldn't have called. First of all, they will be exterminated by the army of Tyre. ”

"So you're the right person. You are human, not elf. The witch king won, but you can't represent our tribe at all, it is the private opinion of a small number of people in the tribe. Tyr won, and naturally everything is easy to say. ”

"But how could he have thought of sending me, and if I went to Tyre, I would be free?" asked Muhadi.

"My human friend, I'll make sure he thinks of it. Fahd said intently, "And, have you forgotten what I said?" Tribal law, out of the tribe can't restrain you? Tyre happened to overthrow slavery and want to fight. According to the laws of Tyre, the citizens of Tyre were not allowed to keep slaves, and slaves not owned by the citizens of Tyre were obliged to be drafted into the army during the war, provided that they were compensated to their original owners. When the war is over, you will still belong to the Scorpio tribe, but you will be a free man. ”

"I have acquaintances in Tyre who can make you go through the motions without actually going to war and be free. Fahd said.

"Great!" said Muhadi. "But why are you helping me to this journey. ”

"Think of it as my personal antipathy to slavery. And I do admire the revolutionaries in Tyre, who did what I didn't dare to do. I want to thank them on behalf of my Jewel Skull brothers for bringing our tribe to work with them. ”

"One more point. Fahd added, "For the plan to succeed, you have to become at least a great warrior who has gained more than ten levels, so that you have enough weight and enough reliability in the eyes of the chief." I know you have psychic abilities, study hard, you must become as strong as you can and become a great samurai, and then I will be more sure to convince the chieftain of them. ”

P.S. Karak Witch, Coral Witch, and the Revolution in Tyre are all official plots. See Pentaprism and One Man's Tribe. However, the official only said that Yurik attacked Tyre, but did not mention his city-state. DND players, don't confuse my novel with the official story.
