Snub Star entered several other stores. The scene is basically the same as the shop just now, they are all buying and selling slaves, and these slaves are basically the same. Bai Yu was puzzled by this, and it didn't understand why these slaves didn't resist. You must know that among the slaves I have seen in the iron gate, there are still a few eighth-level ones, even if they are sealed and cultivated, but the railings of those iron cages are not thick, and with their physical strength, they can easily get out. For this reason, Snub Star also asked one of the shopkeepers.

"Why don't you run away? The shopkeeper smiled. The shopkeeper was an old man with deep eyes, and the wrinkles on his forehead were like knife cuts, which were full of the years he had experienced: "They have no intention of running away, and they are willing to accept their fate, and naturally they will not run away again." ”

"Is he just willing to be a slave and not want to be free?"

The shopkeeper said meaningfully, "Even if he is not reconciled, what can he do? This is Dakris, once he comes in, he can't go out again." It was not this iron cage that trapped him, but this dark place, and the despair in his heart. How can a person whose heart is full of despair have the strength to leave?"

"Desperate?" After listening to the shopkeeper's answer, Bai Yu found that Snub Xing's eyes became strange, as if he was thinking, as if he was confused, and mixed with some emotions that he couldn't distinguish.

Before they left, Bai Yu saw the shopkeeper's old eyes looking faintly overhead, there was a pitch-black ceiling, and even the magic lights here could not illuminate it: "Actually, why am I not a prisoner in this cage? ”

At the end of the hallway, there is a corner, and on the other side of the corner is a corridor that is also full of shops. Snub Xing walked through the area, and found that there were more and more people here, including richly dressed women, men dressed as servants, old men with plain faces, and even people dressed in black and masked who did not know their identities. But whoever it was, seemed to be accustomed to the things that were going on here, or looking at the shops on either side, or having a good conversation with the owner of a certain shop, commenting on the cage slaves, and haggling over the price, and it seemed very harmonious. In the brightly lit corridor, people's faces were reflected, and Bai Yu looked at this lively scene, but there was a faint trace of sadness in his heart.

The snub continued to walk, and finally, after walking through three such corridors, seemed to come to an end. At this moment, in front of them were two doors, two doors of different colors. The door on the left is black, like the purest ink, almost blending with the shadows, while the door on the right is red, like blood about to be shed. Bai Yu looked at the two doors that made it feel uncomfortable, the red door was hidden, and there was a bright yellow light shining through the open gap, while the black door was closed, and he didn't know what was behind itJust as Bai Yu and Snub Star were hesitating which door to choose, a middle-aged man came behind Snub Star, he bypassed Snub Star, pushed open the black door and walked in. Then, in front of the eyes of the cold star, the black door closed again and returned to its original appearance. At the moment when the black door opened, Bai Yu saw that it was a staircase going down, and since the black door led to the bottom, it was obvious that the red door should lead to the top.

Bai Yu heard the snub star ask it, "Up or down?"

It hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Go up." "Now that you're here, you have to see this place clearly. It knows that the Terrans are a magical race, so if it wants to understand the Terrans, then it is not just a part of this race, but it needs to see all aspects of them. And this is undoubtedly a place that is difficult to understand, so it needs to see it clearly.

Snub nodded and pushed open the false red door. Just as they thought, behind the red door was an upward staircase, which they stepped on to enter the second floor of Dakris. As soon as he entered the second floor of Dakris, Bai Yu immediately felt that the atmosphere here was completely different from the first floor.

The first floor of Dakris is brightly lit, but it still has a dim feel. It was as if it would never shine, but the second floor of Dakris, though also windowless, was really no different from daytime, as if all the shadows had dissipated at once. The floor is all snow-white tiles, reflecting a dazzling glow from the magic lamps on the ceiling, apparently well maintained. The surrounding walls are a gentle beige color, which is extremely bright and relaxing.

However, the biggest difference between the second floor and the first floor is the difference in the "goods" sold. On the first floor of Dakris, the slaves sold were all men, whether they were of human race or other races, and the buyers mainly took a fancy to their strength and ability, and wanted to bring them back to work as coolies or guards. However, on the second floor of Dakris, the slaves sold were all women. The eldest of them was in his thirties, the youngest was only seven years old, and after being bought, some became maids, and some of the beautiful ones became playthings. The shops on the second floor of Dakris are very different, the shops on the first floor hide the slaves in the store's warehouse, while the shops here directly display these female slaves for customers to choose. The caged slave girls were forced to wear revealing clothes and tremble with their bodies in their arms, their eyes either dull in their despair or fear of their future fate. And in front of these cages, there are some men with obscene lights in their eyes, looking at them unscrupulously and judging them.

Bai Yu looked at this scene, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, if a magical beast like it was captured by the Terrans, would it also be like those slaves here, completely losing its freedom and being sold as a commodity? Although it was illuminated by the magic light very brilliantly, Bai Yu felt that this place seemed to be darker than the first floor.

At this moment, Snub Star suddenly stopped and looked to the side. Bai Yu noticed his strangeness and turned his head to look at the place where the cold star was looking. It was also a slave girl shop, and the decoration could only be considered average, and a few middle-aged men were picking it up at the moment. There are only five female slaves sold in this shop, and although they are all in cages with their heads bowed, it can be seen that they are all girls in their twenties, and they are all in good shape, so there are several buyers gathered here at once. And Bai Yu felt that Snub Star's gaze seemed to be focused on one of the girls.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yu asked Snub Star.

Snub Star didn't answer, but walked directly towards the store, and when he saw him coming, the shopkeeper who was talking to several other buyers said to these buyers, and walked towards Snub Star. The shopkeeper had a Chinese face, and his squinted eyes were so slender that it seemed as if he would never be able to open them.

"Do you need me to introduce you to my goods here?" asked the shopkeeper.

Snub nodded, and the shopkeeper's eyes narrowed even tighter, and his eyes seemed to have become two thin lines. He walked through the five cages with the snub and introduced the snub in turn. Bai Yu knew from his introduction that the girl that Snub Star had noticed before was named Doris, twenty-one years old, and a mage in the late sixth level. Although the strength of these female slaves is not important, the strength of female slaves will also be regarded as men's capital, and it is easier to arouse men's desire to conquer, so the stronger female slaves will be sold for a higher price.

"How much gold does she want?" Snub Star asked coldly, pointing at Doris lightly.

The shopkeeper replied, "It's all the same, a fixed price, a hundred gold coins." There was a hint of doubt in his slender eyes, why did this young man take a fancy to this female slave girl in one fell swoop?

Bai Yu was slightly stunned, according to the standards of the human race, although Doris cannot be said to be a flower and moon appearance, but it can also be counted into the category of beauty, such a girl, the price is only a hundred gold coins? Although it is not very clear about the value of the human currency, but it also knows that the gold coins of the cold star alone are far more than this amount. In fact, in the Demon Martial Continent, the monthly income of an ordinary civilian family is about two gold coins, and one hundred gold coins is the income of a civilian family for four years and two months. Although it sounds like a lot, the gap between the rich and the poor in the Demon Martial Continent is huge, even if it is the gambling that some small nobles usually joke about, it is not just this amount, it can be seen that its price is not high.

Faced with the shopkeeper's offer, Snub Xing just nodded, and then a golden coupon appeared in his hand. Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper's pupils suddenly shrank, and he naturally knew that if he could suddenly take out something, it meant that this young man had a storage ring on his body. As we all know, storage rings can only be used by those who have reached the heaven-level, so if he said that, this young man was already a heaven-level cultivator, which shocked him.

After accepting the golden ticket of the snub star, he reflexively entered the shop and came out with two scrolls. He handed Snub a pen and unfolded one of the scrolls, which was Doris's slave certificate, with her specific information, appearance, and master. In the Orlan Empire, there were strict laws governing the slave trade, and only slaves with a slave certificate were legal slaves, which prevented slave traders from capturing civilians as slaves as in the Langmu Empire, which was next to the Oran Empire. According to the laws of the Oran Empire, the offspring of a slave who intermarried with a slave were still slaves, but if one of them was not a slave, then his offspring was a commoner, even if it was the offspring of a nobleman and a slave. When transferring slaves, there are strict procedures, and Bai Yu can see that Doris has been transferred once before, which means that she was bought by the shopkeeper from someone else. After Snub Star filled in his name in the field for transferring slaves, the shopkeeper picked up another scroll and said, "Alright, the transaction has been completed, and I will start signing a slave contract with her for you now." ”

Slave contract? Bai Yu froze for a moment, and it knew that this was a very vicious contract. The Snub Star has signed a psychic contract with it, and both parties are in an equal relationship, and the death of either party will cause great trauma to the other. The contract signed by the general warrior or magician and the Warcraft is an equal contract, both parties are mutually beneficial, the contract can be terminated at any time, and there will be no harm caused by it, there is no restriction like the spiritual contract, but the two sides are also not as close as the Snub Star and Bai Yu. But these two contracts, no matter which one they are, are equal to both parties and need to respect each other. But the slave contract was an unequal contract. The slave contract is divided into the master and slave, and the master can control the slave's behavior through his mind, and even kill the slave directly through the contract without any adverse effects, while the slave has no freedom at all, and cannot even commit suicide. Therefore, slave contracts are basically forcible to be signed, after all, it is impossible for anyone to surrender their freedom in this way. Similarly, there are also people who use this kind of contract on Warcraft, but the difference in strength between the master and slave must not be too large, otherwise it will cause the contract to backlash. Bai Yu immediately understood that it turned out that these nobles controlled these slaves through slave contracts to prevent them from betraying. It could feel that the slave girl's heart was beating faster, after all, this meant that from now on, she would be controlled by others, and she would have no freedom of her own.

However, to its surprise, Snub Star actually shook his head at the shopkeeper: "No need. ”

The shopkeeper's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "I must warn you that if you don't use the slave contract to restrain you, betrayal is likely to happen. In this case, we are not responsible. ”

"It doesn't matter. Snub Star said indifferently.

"Okay. The shopkeeper shrugged: "Then you can continue to wander here, and we will send the slaves you want to the ground, and you can collect them with the slave certificate when the time comes." Since Snub Star didn't care, then he didn't bother to care, the reminder just now had fulfilled his obligations as a shopkeeper, and he didn't need to care about what would happen in the future.

Snub Xing was slightly stunned, and then he didn't say anything more, but turned around and left here. It seems that this is Dakris's management, no wonder when he and Bai Yu came, they didn't even have a person with the slaves they bought.

"Why did you buy her?" Bai Yu asked Snub Star through a telepathic voice. It was puzzled by Snub Star's behavior, and it knew that with Snub Star's character, it definitely didn't want to save her.

"Because she seems to be a little different. Snub Star replied succinctly. Is it different? Bai Yu was even more puzzled in his heart, but he didn't ask again.
