Chapter 167: Slaves and Freedom
Everyone vacated a space, smiling and preparing to watch a good show, and even Zhao Mai was ready to "fight". Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info didn't expect Rikas to be still stubborn. He shook his head and said to Posey, "No, I'm not going to fight this pointless game." ”
"What did you say?" the bald elf pointed Ricas's chest with a thick whip, "You damn slave wants to disobey my orders?"
"You're just a slave, just like the rest of us. Rikas swayed, but still stood with his chest straight. "All the people in this yard are the same slaves. If you don't have freedom for a day, that won't change. All I think about right now is winning the Shrine Tower Athletic tournament and nothing else matters to me. You don't matter, and neither do slave girls. ”
"So, we have a slave who wants to be free?" the elven trainer snapped. But the people around him put away their smiles and didn't whisper to each other, but pricked up their ears to listen to their conversation.
"When I was born, my mother died, and my father didn't know where it was. You all call me a Moor, half-breed mongrel or more simply, stinky boy. But in reality, I have only one name: slave. But because I was born a slave, I was born to be free. Maybe you, like me, didn't realize this until now, or didn't think about it at all, but one day all slaves will understand it. You want to establish your authority, it's okay, I can obey, but I only have one goal, and that is the Temple Tower Athletic. I've lost my left hand for this. You know what, I can only wipe my butt with an unfamiliar hand right now, and I have to eat with the same hand. ”
Everyone chuckled.
Rikas was still very serious: "But what if for the sake of victory, for the sake of freedom, I just don't have my hands to wipe my ass? I'd rather never be able to hold bread again, and I can only drink soup for the rest of my life, and I want to taste freedom." So, I'm not going to waste my time on something as pointless as getting beaten up by a fool! Also, you said you're in charge now, then release Butcher as soon as possible! I need him, he's my partner in my quest for freedom. ”
He glanced around at the other gladiators, his gaze swept over their slightly numb faces, and said, "I need more partners too, which of you would like to join?"
Zhao Mai raised his hand high, with a proud smile on his face. A few people were indeed tempted, but they did not dare to show their hearts in public. Since they were sure that there was nothing lively and beautiful, and they didn't want to see the ugly face of the bald elf that was about to explode, they did it themselves.
Percy clenched the whip tightly, he wanted to whip Ricas, but for what reason? Rikas was the most important slave of Lord Taisian, and he made sure that his victory was tied to his own life and that he could not really hurt him. At this time, as long as you wave the whip, you will lose the wind, and it is better to perform more unfathomable, which can also weaken some of the bad effects.
But someone didn't want him to do that. Zhao Mai jumped in front of the elf, stretched out his hand and said, "It seems that I am invincible!"
"Win without a fight. The elf corrected casually.
"That's right!" Zhao Mai's eyebrows were raised high, and his eyes burst out with a "terrible" brilliance: "I won, so I'm going to pick a slave." ”
"Fuck off, you bastard, get back to your pen and sleep with those shit-only beasts, slave girls don't have your share. ”
"No, you promised......" Before Zhao Mai's words were finished, he heard the door in the corner of the training ground creak open. Then the butler walked in with more than twenty women of different shapes.
"Stand by the wall, and you will serve here from now on, doing laundry, cleaning, and sleeping, but you are not allowed to go into the kitchen. The butler's voice was sharp and shrill in his voice: "How to distribute, what to do, you can just listen to Percy." Women are disgusting. ”
With that, he glanced around the muscular bodies of the gladiators around him, and then left with a weird laugh.
When these people came in, Zhao Mai's eyes narrowed, and he almost broke the disguise he had been pretending to be. Among the slave girls, he actually saw Dogian, a former high-ranking Templar. She was dressed in the same clothes as the other slaves, but it was clearly not in line with her taller figure, and there was always a feeling of being unenveloping. In addition, the original cold expression lost its temperature, although it was still stiff, but it was more because of stupidity. Dogian's eyes were blank, and he would only look ahead in a daze, blinking after a long time. And her movements also seem a little stiff, more like a ...... More like a puppet.
The only one who can dismiss the status of a high-ranking Templar is the Witch King, so this must be the result of the Witch King's own spells. If you can look at Dogian's current state, it may be helpful to speculate on the actions of Tyr's higher-ups, and it is more hopeful to understand the Witch King's abilities. Zhao Mai made a quick decision, and when everyone's eyes were attracted by the slave girl, his hand was on the elf's shoulder, intentionally or unintentionally.
You'll find that fools are useful. Zhao Mai mixed a thought into the power of the psychic ability and stuffed it into the elf's mind. You have shown majesty, and if you can have a little friendliness, it will help you to establish authority, and people will be more willing to obey. A fool is a good start, and it will be good for you to fulfill his wishes. ’
"Yes, very advantageous. The elven trainer smelled a pleasant scent of flowers. Although the elves of Atas have long since left the forest, and grace has disappeared from their personalities, the olfactory memory of flowers is still hidden in the depths of the blood, and that love will not be erased. Moreover, people who have not studied psychic abilities have a very poor resistance to the ability to influence emotions. At such a close distance, and without defense, Zhao Mai could easily destroy his mental defense.
When the housekeeper was there, everyone's eyes were on the slave girl, and when the housekeeper left, this gaze would return to the trainer, so Zhao Mai retreated three steps away from Posey in advance. Time is running out and there is no time to construct control with more complex ideas, and a short hint message should suffice. And there is already a good beginning, and it will be much more convenient to carry out spiritual indoctrination later.
Everyone looked at the slave girl and then stared at the trainer. The bald elf licked his teeth and said, "Well, you'll all have a chance, but not today." These people are to be washed clean, both inside and out. I can't let you get sick and rot from below. ”
He saw the greed and desire in everyone's eyes, and regarded it as flattery and obedience, then looked at Zhao Mai and said, "But there is one person who is not afraid of this. They say that fools don't get sick, that's why they are allowed to tame beasts, right?"
"Hehe...... Zhao Mai pretended to be stupid and laughed twice, just wanting to strangle this long-winded and nasty guy to death. Psychic abilities are mostly implicit, not as precise as magic, so you have to listen to this nonsense.
"I'm in a good mood today, so go pick one. Percy said in a trance, and he didn't feel anything wrong afterwards.
So, Zhao Mai pretended to pick a few in the envious eyes of everyone, and then took Duo Ji'an's hand and walked towards the direction of the beast pen.
"Haha, fools deserve nerds. Percy laughed, "Do you want me to teach you some poses?"
A sonorous sound drowned out his laughter. Rikas seemed to feel that his arm was almost there, and slashed the dummy with his prosthetic sword. The blade reflected red light, turning into meteors in the eyes of everyone. In a few moments, the dummy was cut into seven pieces and scattered all over the ground. It was the sharpest weapon the slaves had ever seen, and envy rose in their hearts.
Maybe in their hearts, they also think that they belong to the old man. Exchanging the man's property (hand) for a sword seems to be a very cost-effective deal, which is the saddest thing. Rikas didn't know his fate, and he looked at the sword with delight, not knowing what he had almost missed.
This is what Zhao Mai thought in his heart when he walked into the beast pen. (To be continued.) )
