Wang Qinian opened the door of the room where the elf slaves were held, and the slave catchers behind him lit oil lamps.
According to the plan, all he had to do now was to take the elven slaves out of the room while it was dark and take them away from this room when everyone was attracted by the events created by Zanqi.
This matter must be done cleanly, otherwise it will be known by the dark merchant in the future, and I am afraid that the consequences will be very strict.
Wang Qinian was about to give an order, but suddenly he heard extremely chaotic noises and screams outside, and couldn't help but be stunned, the chaos created by his cheap teacher, Master Zanqi, may not be too big, right?
"Give each of them some water to drink, then loosen the bindings and connect only one of their hands with a rope. Wang Qinian ordered.
But no one acted immediately, and some people sneered: "What do you want to do?"
Old John waved his signal and motioned to the slave catchers who came with him to do as ordered.
"Listen to him, Cochran said, if there is any accident, transfer the elven slaves, and I will be responsible for this matter with him. ”
Only then did someone start to act, Wang Qinian calmly handed them a few water bladders, and they stepped forward to open the elves' closed mouths and feed them the water mixed with alchemical elixir.
Master Zanqi's potion was originally able to turn people into soft-footed shrimp, but when diluted, the effect will be weakened a lot, just enough to make these elves barely walk, or even trot, but it can't last, and if you plan to escape, you will only be caught up.
In fact, Wang Qinian only needed them to be able to walk to the abandoned castle by themselves, and Wang Qinian had many ways to make them dare not escape on the way.
For example, like the next birth.
"Listen, it's not safe here, I'll take you to another place at once, I'll loosen most of your restraints and tie only one of your hands, but don't try to play tricks with me, and don't try to escape. I warn you, if one of you escapes, the others will receive fifty lashes because of him, and if two of you escape, I will cut off one finger of each of you, and if three of you escape, I will cut off one of each of you on one hand, do you hear me?"
This statement was originally a threat that Wang Qinian had in mind, but Old John jumped out and said it, and deliberately glanced at Wang Qinian.
Wang Qinian smiled helplessly, in fact, he didn't want to be this villain, and he didn't expect that Old John jumped out to grab the lines in order to highlight his role, so as to show that he was the real executor of this matter.
Of course, these words are just false threats, although the value of these elven slaves is high, but if there is any damage, it will inevitably damage their value, and integrity is very important.
If it was an orc slave, Old John's threat was probably not fake, but he would not treat the elf slaves like this, and even when they were stored, they used the rented house to house them, and the slave hunters lived in their own tents.
But this threat is absolutely effective for these simple elves in front of them, the wood elves and the high elves are completely different from heaven and earth, and the various countries of the human race are now very likely to be displayed on the legacy of the high elves.
The Wood Elves are different, even when the High Elves ruled Big 6, the Wood Elves were classified as creatures on the same level as humans, only higher than the dirty orcs.
When the high elves retreated, the tribe of the wood elves basically relied on themselves, in a state of self-isolation, although with the invasion of the orcs and the invasion of the human race, some of the wood elf tribes have contact with both, but there are still quite a few wood elf tribes are unwilling to contact with the outside world, these tribes are even more ignorant of the dangers of the outside world, they just instinctively think that no contact will avoid danger.
The elves were full of anger, but they had to obey, and even barely opened their mouths to cooperate with the slave catchers to pour water.
Although Wang Qinian's prestige was deliberately suppressed by Old John, things were still going quite smoothly, and Wang Qinian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
Seven or eight elves had already drunk the potion-mixed water, and the slave catchers began to loosen the bonds of the elves and tie them together.
Just then, the door was slammed open.
"Who!" said old John, who was startled, and immediately drew a serpentine sword.
Wang Qinian was stunned for a while, because he recognized this person.
"Wait, don't hurt him. Wang Qinian stopped Old John, and then looked at the man with a cautious gaze.
"Mr. Bernhard, why are you here?"
This person is the somewhat mysterious old traveler Bernhard, his origin does not seem to be simple, it may be related to the magician, and during the day, Wang Qinian's relationship with him is in a state of reserved goodwill, so Wang Qinian stopped Old John to see if there is any possibility that can be slowed down.
But if the other party is really fighting the idea of this group of elven slaves, then Wang Qinian has no choice but to take action against him with Old John, because if this matter is messed up, Cockland and Master Zanqi will not let him go, even Tuxman will only care about elf slaves, this is the sadness of the little people.
"Don't be nervous, I have no ill will towards you, although I can guess what you are doing. Bernhard was not afraid.
"Actually, I could have escaped first, but I didn't want to see him become food for the Ante Ant-Man, so I came here. Bernhard pointed unceremoniously at Wang Qinian.
"Ant-Man?!" Old John and the others wisely did not pursue the relationship between Wang Qinian and Bernhard at this time, and their faces changed, because Bernhard's news was too shocking.
"How can this be, hasn't Ante Ant-Man been in the Underworld all the time?" exclaimed Old John.
The underground world in Old John's mouth refers to the real underground world, not the underground world as the slave catchers usually say.
The plane that Wang Qinian crossed into was called Keos, a vast and bizarre space where the ground was ruled by order, and the deeper the underground went, the more chaotic it became.
The Underground World, which the Slave Catchers usually refer to, refers to the sum of forces that roam the edge of the Underground World, and Duncan, the Dark Merchant, is famous in it.
And the underground world where Ante Ant-Man is located is a completely different concept, that is, the real underground world, which is the physical underground world.
The surface world has several large 6 pieces, and the rest are oceans, but there is still a zài underground world underneath the ocean.
There are many races living in the underground world, and some of them may not have been touched by the human race.
But among the races that have been contacted, the fierce reputation of the Ante Ant-Man is counted.
Ante Ant-Man is a kind of Bug-Man, Bug-Man still survives in the Zài world, the most famous are three, two of which live on the ground, and the third is the Ant-Man, because they are too ferocious, they were driven underground by the High Elves from the mountains and became a race in the underground world, but they still like the ground and peep at the surface world all the time.
However, the races on the surface certainly don't welcome the Ant-Man, as they will use most of the creatures outside of themselves as food.
The Ante Antmen are between 1.5 and 2.2 meters tall, but this refers to the length from their head to tail, not their height, which is usually between one meter and one meter two, they walk on three pairs of legs with a total of six legs like ants, and when fighting, they use two pairs of middle and rear feet to support their bodies, and their forelimbs are able to use some simple weapons, but even without weapons, their forelimbs are enough to produce lacerations.
Ante Ant-Man is a matriarchal society, their social class is divided into four levels, at the top is the white queen ant and the ant queen, the ant queen dominates the entire Ante tribe, is the co-master of all Ante ant-man tribes, only the ant queen has the ability to reproduce infinitely, from birth can continue to reproduce until death. She will reproduce the following classes, and unlike Terran women, the queen can determine the sex of her offspring. When a descendant is born, about 1 in 20 of them will have a chance to metamorphose into the second estate, with spell-like abilities, about 1 in 5 will become the third estate, and the rest will become the lowest estate.
The second level is the Red Ant Aristocrats, who have warlock-like spell-like abilities, the most common being strong acid breath, which is equivalent to the power of third-order magic, and those who are particularly powerful after individual mutations will have other spell-like abilities.
The third level is the Black Ant Warrior, who does not have spell-like abilities, but has strong hand-to-hand combat strength and a relatively strong body, usually more than one meter eight in length.
The fourth class is the brown ant civilians, but compared to other races, these Ante Ant-Man civilians are also soldiers, because they also have not weak attack power, and they will also participate in every battle.
It should be noted that the ant-man is not the only queen who is capable of reproduction, and if so, the ant-man may have been extinct by the human race or other natural predators.
The females of the other three classes of the Ante people also have the ability to reproduce, but when the queen ant survives, any other Ante female has only one chance to reproduce in her lifetime, and only when the queen dies will this mysterious inhibition be broken, and all females will regain their full reproductive ability.
However, when the old queen dies, all the females will frantically compete for the position of the new queen, and then the boundary between the four classes will be broken, because the death of the queen ant represents the destruction of the old class and the birth of a new ruling class.
After the birth of a new ant-queen, they will continue to suppress other failed ant-females, and the losers will willingly continue to regain their original state.
The new ant queen will mate frantically with the old ant queen until it drains its energy and leads it to death, and the queen ant will give birth to new children in the carnival, and choose one of the red ant nobles to help it transform into a new ant king, and then continue to mate with it.
The other red ant nobles will be divided into various tribes of the kingdom by the queen ant to become rulers, and the red ant nobles born to the queen will control the tribe and establish a new dynasty.
When the queen dies, the new queen will create a new red ant noble, and kill the old noble, achieving the change of dynasties.
In a way, the ant queen is just the queen's bodyguard and fertility tool.
The Terrans have fought the Ant-Men several times, as they still peep out into the ground, and although they have become accustomed to nesting among the rocks after being driven underground, the original Ant-Man nests were built on high mountains.
The Antes are ferocious and can feed on any creature other than themselves, and even if they can't finish it for a while, they will inject acid from their mouthparts to make their enemies weak and take them back to their nests and imprisoned them for future food.
That's why they were driven underground by the High Elves, and according to the records left by the High Elves, they tried to completely wipe out the Antes, but they didn't.
One reason is that the underground world is too complicated, but the main reason is that the High Elves once tried to use the strongest people in the clan to raid the nest of the Ants in the underground world, killing both the queen ant and the ant king, and the remaining ant-people scattered all over the underground world.
The high elves all thought that the Antes were finished, because after losing the queen ant, the Antes were scattered in the underground world again, and there are still many strong races in the underground world.
However, the Antes may have liked to live in groups by nature, and the remaining Antes soon converged into different groups, and through guò competition, multiple ant queens were born, and the High Elves artificially intervened, resulting in the formation of multiple Ante ant-man kingdoms.
From this High Elf record, the queen ant suppressed the fertility of other females for the sake of her own status, so as not to endanger her own position, but ironically, this is also a shackle that restricts the Ant-Man Kingdom Exhibition, and if it weren't for this, maybe Ante Ant-Man would be more difficult to deal with.
There are two dark shadows that Tuxman encounters, the larger one is the Ante Black Ant Warrior, and the smaller one is the Ant Soldier.
Although it may not seem that it is difficult for Tuxman to kill these two Antmen, it is because he is strong enough to be close to the official knights, and the horror of Antmen is that they are in groups.
