Chapter 192: The Adventures of Stirling

Just when Lu Fan saw the old man, he was in Oflin's slave yard.

A figure was trying to climb over a wall.

"Damn, there's something really wrong with this Oflin, the walls are so high, and there are so many needle traps......"

The scolding voice fell sharply with the sound of stepping into the air, and instantly turned into a cry of pain.

"......Shh......h

"What a sound!"

"I just heard a strange noise here!"

A few voices made Sterling's body stiffen, and he hurriedly looked around and jumped onto the big tree next to him.

The next moment he jumped up, a few beams of light shone on the place where he had just fallen.

"Did you find anything?"

"It doesn't seem like there's anyone!"

"It's weird, what is it, I heard the voice......"

A few people looked around, but they didn't see any figures, and left in a hurry.

"Hoo ......"

Sterling breathed a sigh of relief and jumped off the tree.

"Fortunately, when I was young, I was the best at climbing over the wall. ”

Boasting about himself, Sterling began to look around at the buildings, and a tall building caught his attention, which happened to be the largest building on the map.

"Let's go to that high place and have a look......"

Dodging several patrolling guards, Sterling made his way to the back of the building and pulled a rope out of his hand.

With a snap, the hook claw hung on the roof of the building, and Sterling tightened the rope, rejuvenated slightly, and jumped onto the roof in a few steps, without making a sound.

If Lu Fan saw this scene, he would really be envious, as he couldn't use any vitality, he couldn't do it without movement anyway.

Sterling tossed around on the roof for a moment, then slowly lowered from above, observing the windows on the top floor.

"They're all ordinary slaves......"

Sterling muttered to himself as he moved cautiously.

"Huh?"

Sterling, who was still in front of Spider-Man by the window, suddenly noticed a strange movement of several people under his feet.

"Where did this group of people come from? Obviously, the door of this building is on the other side......

When the group was gone, Sterling crept down the rope.

“......”

After falling to the ground, Sterling probably understood.

A staircase leading directly to the ground, which should have been obvious, was only less conspicuous because it was night.

"I thought there would be more covert measures......

The passage to the underground didn't seem to be in the way, and Sterling looked around, knocked out a subordinate, and dragged him into a bush.

After a while, Sterling, who had changed into a costume, went underground.

"It's bigger than I thought it would be......"

Because it's late at night, there aren't many people in this underground room, and the layout is similar to the pattern of the upper floors, with some slaves locked up in a variety of rooms, but their treatment seems to be worse, all of them are yellow and thin, and they seem to have been hungry for a long time.

Sterling, who was observing the surrounding rooms, walked slowly from one passage to another, and as the passage deepened, he saw fewer and fewer slaves.

Why did you have this basement in place? The people who are being held in this room don't have anything in common......

Stirling had seen it from men and women, young and old, and slaves of all races, but he still didn't see anything special about this basement.

Wait, special place?

Stirling's brain, which was often anxious to save his life, suddenly realized something.

These people, it seems, don't have slave certificates?

The slave certificate is not a bondage circle, although the two are very similar, but the bondage circle is used for powerful people or people of other races, and the slave itself will have a slave certificate as long as it is properly registered in the empire.

But none of these people have it.

If there is no proof yet, so many numbers and races......

Overlyn is smuggling slaves in large numbers, avoiding imperial regulations and taxes!

You must know that although slaves have not been banned on the continent that has signed a flat calendar, they have been condemned by many human rights and animal rights organizations, and the empire does not advocate or prohibit them, but all slaves must be registered, and the empire will protect the rights and interests of registered slaves for slave owners, but it will also charge a lot of money for this.

With such a large number of illegal slaves, what the hell is this Overlyn doing......

Before Sterling could think about anything, however, he heard a shrill siren sound, waking up several fox children in a room in front of him.

This is, the man with only his underwear left was discovered?

Sterling, who heard the alarm, also shook and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the entrance.

Fortunately, there were a few people in costume who ran towards the entrance, and Sterling's movements did not attract anyone's attention for the time being.

"What's going on??"

"Someone invaded! Autoliv was attacked, and his clothes were stripped of him!"

"Blockade! Blockade exit!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, Sterling quickly climbed over the wall and disappeared into the night sky, but he fell off the wall again in a panic and didn't pay attention to the back of a few people watching him leave.

"Someone invaded?"

It didn't take long for Overlin, who was still wearing pajamas, to look at the people and the stupid guy who still had only a pair of underwear left, and slapped the table angrily.

"But my lord, I haven't noticed anything missing yet, judging from the images, this person may have just entered the basement where the special slave was held......"

Hearing this, Overlyn breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, the man didn't spot the dragon in another basement.

As for the undocumented slaves, Overlyn wasn't too worried.

As a slave farm, it is not once or twice that the people in the Guards Mansion have found fault and raided them, anyway, the Guards Mansion has its own people, as long as it is to be checked, they can get the news in advance and prepare.

"Alright, keep me on guard, add a few more people, and don't let people get in anymore. ”

Overlyn yawned, waved her hand impatiently, and went back to sleep.

......

Early the next morning.

"Ah...... I came back so late last night and didn't sleep well. Lu Fan rubbed his slightly red forehead, "So, what the hell is it that got me up?"

"Didn't Mr. tell me to remember to wake you up......" Akane puffed out her cheeks and carried the giant sword angrily.

Even if I don't get up, is this thing suitable for you to wake people up......

"By the way, sir, there has been a man waiting for you outside since early in the morning, and I feel as if I have seen that person somewhere. The girl said as she pointed outside.

"Huh?"

Lu Fan looked at the injured man in front of him, and couldn't help but feel the corners of his mouth twitch.

"This, are there a lot of masters in that slave farm?"

Sterling in front of him had a huge bandage on his head and a cane, and he seemed to have injured his leg, which looked a bit miserable.

"Uh...... My lord, something is wrong. Sterling scratched his chin in embarrassment, his eyes a little wandering.

It's just that I mixed it when I climbed over the wall again, and then fell headfirst down, not to mention, and because I ran away with a wound and didn't see the road clearly, I tripped like this.

"A large number of unregistered slaves?" Hearing Sterling's words, Lu Fan was slightly stunned, after all, he really didn't know the meaning of the slave certificate.

"My lord, that's ......"

After hearing Sterling's introduction, Lu Fan probably understood: "Are you saying that if some people are found to be slaves without authorization, they will be banned from the slave trade?"

"It's not that simple. Akane also touched her little chin, as if she was recalling something, "That said, since this Oflin has been able to work here for so long, this kind of thing should have been cleared, I'm afraid it can't be used as a useful weapon." ”

"This young lady is right," Sterling also nodded, "Offlin has been here for many years, not only Oflin, almost all slave traders will privately sell a lot of unregistered slaves in order to escape the expenses of the empire, mostly low-cost workers and children, their group of people have a lot of power in the local area, and basically can't expect the Guards Mansion to find anything." ”

The other world also has to evade taxes......

Lu Fan complained in his heart, remembering the old man's entrustment last night, so he asked Sterling: "Speaking of which, have you seen a few fox children." ”

"...... fox kids?"

Sterling was stunned and fell into the memory.

"But it shouldn't be so coincidental...... Lu Fan saw Sterling's movements, thinking that he hadn't seen it, but he had already prepared, and waved his hand again, "Since you are all injured, it seems that I still want to go by myself." ”

"I actually saw it"

"You know ...... by looking at me"

"Sir......" Akane couldn't help but cover her forehead, it seems that waking up someone who hasn't slept enough is really deadly.

Lu Fan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly grabbed Sterling's neckline: "Did you really see it?"

"Shhh...... It hurts, it hurts, my lord!" Sterling seemed to be pulled by Lu Fan's wound, "I saw it, I saw it! It's in the basement!

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry. Lu Fan hurriedly let go of Sterling and said apologetically.

After a while, Sterling had finished explaining everything he had seen, and Lu Fan placed a small bag of gold coins in front of him.

"Thank you so much, it's a gratuity. ”

Sterling looked flattered: "How embarrassing is this, my lord, what should be done, what should be done......

If you don't say this with your money bag in your arms right away, it may be convincing......

Holding back the words of complaining, looking at Sterling, who said goodbye and limped away, Lu Fan remembered something, took out a medicine bottle from his backpack, and called Sterling.

"Is there anything else going on, my lord?" Sterling caught the medicine bottle that Lu Fan threw over, "This is ...... Magic potion?"

"Take it for treatment, it should be useful. ”

Looking at Lu Fan with a smiling face, Sterling's heart trembled.

As a killer, when has he ever been cared for like this?

"Thank you, sir. ”

The black-haired girl looked at Sterling, who seemed to have tears in the corners of her eyes, and couldn't help but whisper a little speechlessly: "That potion ......"

"Oh, I bought it in the dark world before, although it seems to be really useful," Lu Fan said indifferently, "It's just that there may be some side effects......

Thinking of the few times he fell on the roof, Lu Fan had been worried about what to do with the bottles of healing potions in his pocket, but now he can be regarded as making the best use of them.

"Unlucky fellow......" Akane muttered, looking at the limping figure in the distance with a hint of pity
