Chapter 173: Logs

"If you want to gain power, you have to pay your loyalty, are you willing to leave the Black Tower with me and start a career?" Li Yunfei accepted this salute calmly, staring at the people in front of him and said slowly. For these people in front of him, his existence is indeed the only life-saving straw, and what he wants to do is indeed change their fate.

More than a dozen people looked at each other, and then replied in unison, "Swear to follow your lord!" These people were not from the Black Tower King City in the first place, they were basically the children of civilians who came from various giant cities, and they had been staying here to learn magic, but they didn't have any attachment to the Black Tower King City.

"Are you willing to become a knife in my hand from now on, no matter what the sword is a mountain or a sea of fire, it will go with me?" Li Yunfei asked with the corner of his mouth raised. He wants a warrior, not a pampered waste.

"It is my lifelong wish to become a battle mage, and I am willing to die for my lords!"

"Very well, get up. Come with me to Iron-Blooded Roland City in a few days. Li Yunfei nodded and said.

Hearing this, these magic apprentices were all overjoyed, they knew that this meant that Li Yunfei had already taken them in, and they would also get this power!

In their opinion, these waste-like overage magic apprentices were of no use, and there was no need for this adult to deceive them. Moreover, they also know Luke's personality very well, and understand that if Luke is not 100% sure, he will not be so reckless as to let them serve someone.

It's just that after the dozen or so people stood up, they suddenly found that there was still a person on the ground who couldn't kneel, his whole body trembled, but he didn't speak.

This person's hair is also gray, he looks no more than thirty years old, but he is lying on his back like a fifty-year-old man, at this time he quietly looked up at Li Yunfei, suddenly gritted his teeth, and said loudly: "My lord, please save my brother! Please save my brother! I am willing to die for adults! Please!"

By the end, the man's voice had become shaky and weeping.

Seeing this scene, the people around who had already stood up hesitated for a moment, and then knelt down in front of Li Yunfei again, and said nonchalantly: "My lord, please save Old Bill's brother, he ...... He's so pitiful......" "I beg you to ......" "Your Excellency ...... mercy"

Li Yunfei's face was still smiling, but his eyes slowly narrowed at this time.

"What's the use of my corpse? I want a living warrior! Get all out of here!" Li Yunfei scolded, and the group of people who were originally kneeling on the ground immediately stood up again, and all of them had a worried look on their faces. Wouldn't it anger the Lord by doing so, after all, it was a great gift to be given that kind of power, and now they wanted more......

Just when everyone was nervous, Li Yunfei said slowly: "Remember, from now on, you are my warriors! You are the greatest magic gold warriors that have never been seen in this world before! A magic gold warrior's knees must not be bent at anyone, including me! If you want to gain dignity, you must fight for it with your own hands! Do you understand!?"

"Understood!" everyone shouted in unison, their faces flushed, and their whole bodies faintly became uncontrollable from excitement. Li Yunfei's words instantly resonated in their hearts. As over-age magic apprentices without any hope, they all have extreme inferiority complex in their hearts, and they have long forgotten their former pride. However, Li Yunfei's words made them feel real respect! If you want to gain dignity, you have to fight for it with your own hands!

"Tell me, what's going on?" Li Yunfei asked, looking at the old bill with an encouraging look in his eyes.

Bill took a deep breath and began to pour beans into a bamboo tube.

After all, these magic apprentices have a lot more knowledge and culture than ordinary people, and they can be regarded as intellectuals in this world, so if they give up learning magic and turn to some other things, such as business, etc., they may not have a place. It's just that these apprentices, who are obsessed with magic, have never given up, but continue to study magic.

And if you want to continue to study magic, you need the corresponding materials, books, the guidance of a real mage, etc., etc., all of which require money! If you don't have money, you can lend it to you, as long as you pay it back within the specified time. As a result, many overage magic apprentices have borrowed money or materials from the Black Tower, allowing them to continue their mage dreams. In the beginning, many people thought that this was the warm side of the Black Tower, and although they no longer contained their overage apprentices, they were still given a chance.

It's just that they soon find out that the Black Tower is not a charity! If you can't pay it when it expires, then you will be equivalent to selling yourself to the Black Tower, and from then on, your life will no longer belong to you, and you will become a hard labor in the Black Tower, and even more so, you will directly become the human test material of the Black Tower!

As a magical research institution, the Black Tower has been working on the research of new magic, and these magic often require a living person as a test subject. At this time, these indebted apprentices who were locked up in the underground research room became the best materials! In the eyes of the Black Tower, they were no longer human, but called "logs"!

Bill's younger brother just listened to a rumor and borrowed some rare materials from the Black Tower behind his back to conduct magic experiments, wanting to break through the bottleneck. Unexpectedly, in the end, the experiment failed, and he was also caught in the black tower and became a log for human experiments!

"I also know that this request is a bit rude, and it is a great gift for you to be able to bestow this power on us losers...... It's just that I grew up with my younger brother, so it's really ...... It's really ...... My lord, even if I trade my life for my brother, I am willing!" said Bill, his eyes already red, tears rolling in his sockets, ready to fall at any moment. His younger brother had just been captured by the people of the Black Tower yesterday, and he originally thought that there was no hope at all, but he didn't expect Li Yunfei to suddenly appear, which gave him a glimmer of hope again.

At this time, hearing Bill's words just now, Li Yunfei's eyes couldn't help but narrow, and he asked, "How many 'logs' are there in total in the underground research room of the Black Tower?"

"It is said that a new batch has just been received recently, and there are more than 1,000 people...... There are too many magic apprentices in the Black Tower King City, and there are countless down-and-out losers, it's really ......" Bill perked up when he heard Li Yunfei's question, and immediately said.

"Very good...... Your name is Bill, isn't it? As long as your brother isn't dead, I'll get him out. The rest of the people, help me recruit as many magic apprentices as possible who live in the south of the city, and you can tell them about the magic gold war spear, but you must keep it secret, otherwise, I will leave the Black Tower King City by myself, and you can do it yourself. Luke, come back to the Black Tower with me, I'm going to ask Raphael for someone. Li Yunfei said just do it, gently picked up the Ming who was leaning on him, and strode out of here.

More than a thousand magic apprentices are suffering hellish and losing their lives! There's nothing more devastating than giving them hope to gain a person's loyalty. And there is no hope more desirable than life and strength.

If he can get these more than 1,000 "logs", he can definitely build a most loyal army!

And he was relieved to let Bill and the others take charge of recruiting other overage magic apprentices, and even left the magic gold war gun here. For these people, Li Yunfei is the only hope, now it is not a question of whether they will go with Li Yunfei, but whether Li Yunfei is willing to take them away, I think they will definitely do their best, after all, this is related to their future.

As for the magic gold war spear, there were many unique alchemy circuits from Karis in it, and except for Li Yunfei, no one else could study anything even if they took it.

After getting Li Yunfei's promise, these dozen or so magic apprentices who had been living in decadence and despair immediately acted quickly as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. They have lived in this black capital for more than ten years, and they know basically magic apprentices in the same situation as themselves, and it is too easy to recruit others.

On the other side, Li Yunfei returned to the Black Tower, found Raphael directly, and explained his intention straight to the point.

"What, Brother Dou Bi wants to buy the magic apprentice in the underground research room?" Raphael was stunned, originally thinking that Li Yunfei would buy the magic scroll immediately, but he didn't expect to redeem himself for those wastes. In his opinion, those overage magic apprentices who don't have any talent are simply a bunch of garbage, what does this Dou Pi want these things for?

"Yes, this is still the request of Master Yanbo, the president of our Roland Magic Association, I almost forgot," Li Yunfei has now completely lied without blushing and deceiving people quietly, "The Roland Magic Association needs some skilled apprentices as servants, after all, the Black Tower King City is a city of magicians, and the apprentices here are naturally the best choice." ”

Hearing this explanation, Raphael also nodded and immediately agreed. It's just a batch of logs, and to put it bluntly, there will be this kind of magic apprentice who is not talented enough anywhere, and I believe that the other party will not be able to make anything tricky. Moreover, there are a lot of logs in the Black Tower, and many times there are not so many human tests to do, which is simply a waste, and it is better to sell them all. Anyway, one batch was sold, and soon the next batch will be followed.

At this time, the two sides had their own thoughts, and they no longer talked nonsense, and the two agreed at the moment that Li Yunfei would buy all the more than 1,500 "logs" in the underground research room of the Black Tower, and each would be sold for 100 gold coins.

At the same time, Li Yunfei bought ten silver fifth-grade forbidden curse scrolls, each with 50,000 gold coins, five curse scrolls, 50,000 gold coins each, and five curse purification scrolls, also 50,000 gold coins each. Plus a wide variety of other normal scrolls, adding up to a total transaction value of 1.5 million gold coins.

Raphael was still waiting for Li Yunfei to make a counteroffer, but he didn't expect the other party to be extremely cheerful, and he said that how much money was how much was unambiguous.

At that moment, both parties were happy, and the goods and gold coins were delivered on the spot in Li Yunfei's room. Raphael directly presented a small storage bag containing all kinds of scrolls.

Li Yunfei was a little surprised by Raphael's cheerfulness, but he didn't expect this transaction to be completed so quickly, which saved him from a mouthful. Sure enough, there is still money to do......

After sending Raphael and the others away, he walked into the bedroom in a hurry, took out a curse purification scroll from the space bag, and asked Chao Ming, "Get one?"
