Section 246 Free Labor

Everyone has a herd mentality, and if there is an astrologist willing to come forward at this time, the remaining astrowizards will definitely flock to agree to Xin Yu's conditions. It's just that the most difficult things in the world are often at the beginning, and the least likely ones to appear are those who have the courage to take the lead.

Therefore, after Xin Yu proposed to let these astromagicians who could not pay the compensation be reduced by "selling their bodies", they were at a stalemate for a while. Don't look at those astromagicians as if their eyes are "bright", but the two contradictory choices of life and death and honor and disgrace are not so simple.

Even if these are all at the bottom of the astral world, the casual cultivators and the astronomers of the miniature sect who seem to have no social status are also "spoiled" by the universal laws of the astral world, and they have the natural nobility of the astronomicals.

And in the face of choosing to maintain one's own glory, then one must face death, and choosing to survive must suffer humiliation. This either/or choice of only one item is extremely cruel to anyone.

Even in the world of Xin Yu's previous life, in an economically developed commercial society, human faith was close to collapse, but the choice between life and death, honor and disgrace was still not so easy. Speaking of which, although in a society with an extremely developed material civilization, it seems that many people will bend their waists in front of money and look very spineless. However, in an egalitarian cultural environment where equality and freedom are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is really uncertain how most people will choose between life and death, honor and disgrace.

And in this world of astrology, because the astrologist suddenly changed from an ordinary person to a powerful person, his mentality is naturally in a very high realm, and the astral world itself does not have a strong organizational order, or in other words, there is no fixed and strict hierarchical order. In this way, no matter whether the cultivation of the astral master itself is high or low, except when there is a conflict of interests and it is unavoidable, there will be a situation where the strong will subdue the weak.

In other words, if there is no conflict of interest, even if others are higher in cultivation than themselves, can they still "hide" if they "can't be provoked"? From this point of view, all the astromagicians in the astral world, except for groups with certain relationships, such as the master-apprentice relationship, and the organizational relationship within the sect, except for these relationships, the astromagicians may be subject to certain constraints, and in any other case, they are absolutely free.

Then the problem arises, in this case, the "social positioning" of the astrologist itself is relatively vague, and the only thing that is clear is compared with ordinary people in the world. It is precisely because of this that all the astromagicians in the entire astral world have been cultivated, and as long as they succeed in getting started, they will naturally have a high status.

Moreover, this situation is not only in the astral realm of this world, but also in the astral realm of the entire universe. Because of the "detachment" from the world of ordinary people to become an astronomical, the sudden change in strength and the sudden improvement of identity naturally made all astromagicians unexpectedly have an unwarranted arrogance.

Even though in many cases, the strong always have more say, but comparatively speaking, the weak will grow into the strong one day...... Although not every weak person can become a member of the strong one, those who can become an astral wizard are definitely the elite among ordinary people, and anyone will be full of trust in themselves. In other words, everyone will think, "I'm not as good as the strong now, but my future is not necessarily worse than the strong." "In addition, after becoming an astral magician, especially after the stage of forging the alchemy body has passed, the life span of an astrologist has been greatly extended, so that there will still be an astral magician who is willing to attach his whole life to others?

Just like Chen Moru's former butler Huan Zilou, even if he was born as a slave, Huan Zilou's attitude towards Chen Moru's master is extremely deferential and humble, but it is just that his own thinking has not adapted to the identity of an astrologist. And even Chen Moru, after the entrance to the Purple Building, he never regarded him as a "private property" anymore, if it weren't for the fact that Chen Moru's situation was a little special at the beginning, he would have "released" this astrologist who could ensure the safety of his life in the world.

This situation in the astral world determines that although these astrologists have "softened" in their hearts, they still dare not easily give up their free life and face...... Although they also know that after choosing dignity, they will not even continue their lives, let alone live freely. However, if he "dares to be the first in the world", even if he becomes a strong man in the future, and even after "God opens his eyes", he may be able to surpass Xin Yu, the "master", in terms of cultivation, but a slave is a slave, just like the existence of Eun Zilou, in the case of having made an oath, unless the master dies unexpectedly...... If the master is killed by the enemy, the slave still needs to destroy the enemy and avenge the master before he can truly become free.

In this way, it seems that every move in the future will be restricted and ordered by the master, and without self, you can only take the will of the master as the code of conduct, so that the life like the "walking dead" is indeed meaningless. Judging from this philosophical analysis, these astrowizards have reason to reject Xin Yu's proposal.

It's a pity that in any world, there are only a few people who sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths, even if they are as arrogant as astromagicians, these scattered cultivators and astromagicians from the WeChat General Alliance, when Xin Yu was impatient and ready to set up a killer to solve these few astrowizards who were not very good at grinding and chirping, these guys were finally frightened by Xin Yu's face and finally agreed.

Speaking of which, if they don't agree, they will be finished immediately, if they become Xin Yu's slaves, although it will be impossible for them to get rid of the existence of Xin Yu's master for a long time in the foreseeable future. However, there is still hope in case possible. For example, Xin Yu himself had an accident while traveling in the outer world, and was involved in some dangerous environments, so he was completely dead. Or maybe Xin Yu offended some strong person, and then was killed by someone else...... Although in this case, these astrologists must also avenge Xin Yu, but there is no time limit for this revenge, right?

This is actually a loophole in the law of oaths, because as long as it is certain that the final enemies of the former masters were ultimately killed at the hands of these slaves, then whatever method they used, they were considered to have fulfilled the requirements of the oath. Moreover, if this enemy has an extremely long lifespan, and can even reach the level of a powerful Sage in the future, and live for millions or even tens of millions of years without falling, then as long as this enemy does not die by accident or at the hands of others, it cannot be judged that these sorcerer slaves have broken their oath.

In addition, if Xin Yu's enemies are in an extremely dangerous situation due to special circumstances, and these astrologists "just in time" give the final blow to this "fateful" enemy, the law will also determine that they have fulfilled their oath. In other words, the law actually includes that these astrologists can summon strong people to help with the fist, as long as the final blow is made by these slaves, then it is considered ...... It's done.

In fact, even if Xin Yu offends a more powerful powerhouse without knowing what to do, it may not be a constraint for these slaves, in addition to the above-mentioned "favorable" situations, in fact, it is also beneficial for these guys to be free. Because, generally those who can kill a "speed type" like Xin Yu are probably cultivated to a powerful Great Star Warlock, or even a Sage-level power. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for a master of this level to die...... Any intelligent creature knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and after reaching the level of a great star magician, unless it encounters a situation where it is necessary to die, generally speaking, such enemies are "scourge for thousands of years".

But then again, since the great star magicians know how to seek advantage and avoid disadvantage, doesn't Xin Yu understand? Yes, that is just the most ideal situation in theory, generally speaking, the only situation in which these star magicians who call Xin Yu's slaves can actually get rid of the state of enslavement, that is, they hope that Xin Yu will die in an accident...... Whether it is to go mad or fall into a dangerous starry sky environment, or there is only one left to wait for Xin Yu to "die".

However, it seems that Xin Yu's cultivation is even higher and stronger than them, if it is compared to lifespan, these guys really can't compare with Xin Yu.

Under such circumstances, Xin Yu "became a shareholder by speculating in stocks, and the creditor became the owner", and when these sorcerers could not "repay" the compensation he demanded, he accepted such twelve high-level sorcerer slaves. Compared to those subordinates of the Ocean Country, these twelve astral magicians are absolutely subordinate to him...... This is forced by the law of oath, or the law of cause and effect, which is far tougher than those "brainwashing" methods.

In other words, the Ocean Nation Star Sorcerers cultivated by Xin Yu may also have undetermined guys, rebel under certain circumstances, or automatically break away from Xin Yu's subordinate identity because of the "awakening of self-consciousness" one day. However, because of the constraints of their oaths, these twelve astral magicians could not go against Xin Yu's will until they died.

Speaking of which, although in terms of "qualifications", the potential of these twelve star magicians is not very high, and it is unknown whether they can reach the realm of great star magicians in this life, but compared to the goods that Xin Yu Lion asked for from these guys, the slaves of the twelve high-level star magicians are far more "affordable" than those things.

It seems that now, after Xin Yu confirmed that each of the twelve star magicians had made the most vicious oath of "recognizing the master", Xin Yu simply sent these twelve guys to the No. 1 Precision Foundry in the Ocean Country, and asked them to be responsible for cooperating with the smelting "experts" to study the star treasure materials that Xin Yu had set up before.

And these twelve astromagicians, who are far more "noble" than ordinary people, are not treated as well as the technicians of the precision foundry...... Not to mention a technician with a certain status, even an ordinary worker in the No. 1 Precision Foundry still has a salary of dozens of taels of silver every month. But these high-ranking astromagicians, because they belong to Xin Yu's private property, can only enjoy the benefit of "food and accommodation", and there are no other salaries and bonuses.

From this point of view, it is really sad that these astral magicians have become Xin Yu's slaves. In the process of materials research, a lot of hard work is tiring...... Saying bitter is because of different proportions and various formulas, and the boring process definitely requires most of the mental power, in addition, it is not ordinary tired.

Because most of the synthetic materials that can be used to create Xingbao embryos are metallic materials. In other words, a furnace is used in the process of testing...... It seems that even ordinary people, if the requirements for efficiency are not high, it is not a high-intensity work.

However, since Xin Yu had asked them to participate in the research of materials, he naturally would not ask these astral magicians to be the standard of ordinary people. Transporting various materials is indeed a trivial matter for an astrologist, but it would be more ...... if there is a time limit for the tasks that must be completed Harsh.

As long as you compare it with those ordinary researchers, you can know how Xin Yu squeezed the value of these astral magicians. First of all, there are about 20 people in an ordinary research team, and some of these 20 people are responsible for recording data, some are responsible for handling materials, some are responsible for controlling the melting furnace, and some are responsible for testing the performance of materials.

And these twelve astrologers, except for the fact that they are not familiar with the laws of material proportioning, do not need to be responsible for the design of research plans, and all other work is undertaken by them...... In addition, they are also responsible for using astrology to test and verify other properties of the Astrological Embryonic material.

In other words, the workload of these astral magicians may not be less than that of twenty ordinary people, and even because of the additional work in the end, it is far beyond that of ordinary researchers.

Well, the strength and spirit of the astrologist are stronger than ordinary people, and this team has fewer manpower than other ordinary people, which is really not the most serious thing.

However, the "secondary" aspect makes them far more bitter and tired than the researchers of the first precision foundry.

Because, for ordinary researchers, Xin Yu does not limit the intensity of their work. Generally speaking, a materials research team can thoroughly study a formula in ten and a half days, which is considered relatively good...... Because the current research room conditions of the Ocean Country are also worse than the production conditions of Xin Yu's previous life, in terms of research, he can only use the tactics of the sea of people.

However, for the team composed of these astromagicians, Xin Yu is even more black-hearted than the black-hearted "landlord", so he won't say anything if he doesn't give money...... For slaves, "equal pay for equal work" did not need to be considered.

However, the task arranged by Xin Yu is simply to squeeze these free labors to maximize profits
