From Exploder Goblins Invading All Universes

Chapter 71 Buying Slaves {6.2k}
"Your Majesty, the enemy's route has begun to change!"

The court mage who was manipulating the huge crystal ball was suddenly shaken, and quickly woke up His Majesty Will who was resting with his eyes closed.

After observing the huge goblin army in the Verdant Mountains yesterday, His Majesty Will, who learned the news, asked the court mage to control the crystal ball in real time for him to watch.

There is no way, the number of this army is too terrifying, and the population of their Hydelin Kingdom is only a little over 1000 million. Even if slaves are included, it is only about 500 million, and the number of the enemy's army is at least a million.

It's fine if it's just a million-dollar army with average strength, but the problem is.
From the information obtained from the investigation, it can be seen that the strength of individual soldiers in this huge army is at least that of soldiers who have entered the ranks!
There are many high-level fighters among them.

For more detailed information, the Hydelin Kingdom does not have the ability to quickly investigate, but what is known so far makes His Majesty Will worry all day long, and cannot eat or sleep well.

Even, he began to regret why he didn't agree to the forest elf kingdom's request for help before.

This army obviously annexed countless monsters in the Green Mountains and the Kingdom of the Forest Elf, and thus created such a huge number of Heavenly Demon Families.

If the Heavenly Demon had united with the Allied Forces of the Verdant Mountain Range when it was still weak and had spent some money, I am afraid that they would not have to face this terrifying and desperate army now, would they?
In the state of repose, Will, who fell into regret and annoyance, suddenly heard the voice of his court mage, quickly opened his eyes, and looked at the huge green army along the huge crystal ball.

Soon, Will beamed.

The enemy has really turned!
Originally, this huge army was pointing directly at their Kingdom of Hyderin, as if they wanted to destroy their kingdom, but now, the other party turned a corner and marched far away against the border of Kingdom of Hyderin.

Although it is not clear why the celestial demon behind this army suddenly changed his plan, Will didn't want to get to the bottom of it.

"Okay, this is a good thing! That's great!" His Majesty Will laughed, laughing heartily, overjoyed.

The laughter released the huge pressure accumulated in his heart, Will calmed down, and cheered up, "Continue to observe the opponent's marching route, lest the opponent return the carbine."

Although Will feels that with the strength shown by the other party, there is no need for any conspiracy at all, and it is enough to directly push their Hydrin Kingdom with hard power, but the prestige of the demon is too strong, so it is not too much to be cautious. , at least seek psychological comfort.

"Tonight, all the nobles are invited to a banquet to celebrate!" His Majesty Will gave instructions to the guards standing beside him.

The celebration was fake, and before the news spread among the high-level officials of the Hydelin Kingdom, Will planned to squeeze out the oil from these fat pig nobles and hold another war fundraising event.

"I obey, Your Majesty." The guard bowed respectfully and nodded, then quietly retreated to prepare.

In the northern part of Nicole City, there is a street dedicated to selling all kinds of slaves.

Sophia held Lan Feng's arm, and looked curiously at the slaves locked in the iron cage on both sides. Behind him, Aiolos, who was like an iron tower, followed silently, which made many people who had seen Sophia's malicious eyes tremble. Yi Lin quickly looked away, not daring to look any further.

Take a second look and it could really explode.

When a slave trader saw Lan Feng and his party, his eyes lit up immediately, and he stepped forward to solicit business,
"My lord, why don't you take a look at our slaves? The men are healthy and strong, and the women are proficient in all housework."

"I want a high-quality slave, do you have one?" Lan Feng stopped and asked.

Just when the slave trader was about to answer and brag, Lan Feng's words made him stunned.

"Twenty male slaves, requiring the lowest level of strength, thirty female slaves, don't say what kind of proficiency, I only need to have one thing that is outstanding, and the housekeeper must have rich management experience. Arrange in an orderly manner at least a hundred people to work."

"My lord, your request is too high." The slave trader smiled wryly.

"Third-level strength can already dominate some small towns. A master of this level of strength can easily become the captain no matter whether he goes to the nobleman as a guard or joins the kingdom, let alone thirty third-level slaves Well, there are only three of them, and there are not many slave traders here who can fulfill your request."

"It's the female slaves you said have the same outstanding skills, such as cooking. I have an orc chef slave who has been cooking in restaurants for more than [-] years, and a human female slave who has pretty good pruning and gardening skills. , the other party has worked for an earl for seven years as a garden pruning and housekeeper, and I also have two housekeepers who are proficient in management as slaves."

"Take me to have a look." Lan Feng nodded lightly after listening to the other party.

Although he knew from Leto that there is an organization that sells slaves with high quality, Lan Feng is not in a hurry right now.

The goblin army is marching outside, and after reaching the monster forest, they can start to harvest resources continuously. Now he only needs to do what he should do as a viscount of the Yaohui Empire.

Of course, you can't slack off practicing the phantom secrets every day. Taking the path of war lord, in the end, it's still about gathering the power of all beings and cultivating one's own might.

Lei Meng nodded with a smile, and said something to a subordinate behind him, asking him to take a good look at the slaves in the iron cage on this side of the street. The young man who looked like a big shot led the way.

The slaves placed in iron cages on both sides of the street are mostly low-quality slaves and ordinary slaves, who are only watched and bought by ordinary families or well-off families.

The truly powerful merchants and nobles must go directly to the slave merchant's slave base for selection.

There, there are real boutiques, the commodities that slave traders can really make a lot of money from.

Under the leadership of Raymond and the explanation all the way, the three of Lan Feng soon arrived at the other party's base for storing slaves.

It is located on the third basement floor of a restaurant, with a basement area of ​​thousands of square meters.

Half an hour passed.

After Lan Feng finished selecting the products, he paid the deposit and asked Lei Meng to deliver the slaves he bought to the manor he just bought in two hours, and then pay the rest of the money.

After Raymond bowed and nodded respectfully, the three of Lan Feng left here.

This time, Lan Feng went to the stronghold of the Dark Night Organization introduced by Leto, which specializes in selling high-quality slaves.

Half an hour later, Lan Feng walked out of the slave base of the Dark Night Organization with a satisfied smile.

The Dark Night Organization recommended by Leto is really good, and it can perfectly meet Lan Feng's needs.

That is, the price is at least [-]% more expensive than what I saw at the Raymond slave merchant.

However, Lan Feng, who destroyed the four kingdoms of the Underdark and the kingdom of the forest elves, in terms of wealth, is estimated to be only a lot more than the wealth of all the nobles in the entire Hydrin Kingdom combined.

Especially in the forest elf kingdom, at least thousands of years of accumulation, many secret weapons, armors, artworks, gems and jade, can be sold for hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins.

Gold, in the universe, is divided into A9 and other grade metals according to their grades, and the price is not low.

Now that the Blue Maple brood is advancing from the sixth level of apprenticeship to the seventh level of apprenticeship, 7 tons of A9-level metal resources are needed. If it is replaced with A[-]-level gold, it only needs [-] tons.

Higher-tier resources, in most cases, can override the effects of lower-tier resources.

According to the weight of a standard circulating gold coin in the Hydelin Kingdom is 5g, then 1000 million standard pure gold coins can meet the metal resource consumption of Blue Maple Brood's promotion apprentice.

Similarly, because gold is an A9-level metal, it can be used instead of other metals in the eighth and ninth levels of advanced apprenticeships in the hive.

It takes [-] tons of gold to advance the brood from the seventh to the eighth rank of apprentice, and [-] tons of gold to advance from the eighth to the ninth rank of apprentice.

According to calculations, if the three grades are all replaced by gold, then there are 1000 million gold coins, [-] million gold coins, and one billion gold coins respectively.

"The combined gold reserves of the five kingdoms destroyed by me are more than 30 tons, which is equivalent to more than 600 million standard gold coins of the Kingdom of Hydelin. If it is sold, it should not be a problem to earn [-] to [-] million gold coins." Lan Feng pondered.

In fact, replacing the A7-level metals that are currently in short supply with gold can completely allow the brood to meet the metal resource gap a few days ago or even earlier.

The reason why Lan Feng didn't do this is because there are enough A7-level metals waiting to be excavated in the Green Mountains, so they kept the more than 30 tons of gold.

Higher-tier metal resources can override the effects of lower-tier metal resources, but not the other way around.

The gold is kept, and after the brood advances to the eighth or ninth rank, the demand is huge.

Moreover, even if the metal resources are satisfied, there is still a huge gap in energy resources, and they will not be able to advance to the seventh level, unless Lan Feng makes hundreds of thousands of goblins under his command kill each other to meet the gap in energy.

"Perhaps, I can secretly establish an organization that sells high-value items to collect gold." Lan Feng pondered.

Although the planet Kara is rich in metal resources, most of the easy-to-find and easy-to-dig high-grade metal veins have been excavated. It is really necessary to rely on the radar of the drop cabin to search for veins everywhere, and then dig out enough high-grade metal resources. That really takes a little luck.

A-level low-level metals are easy to find, and high-level metals are much more difficult to find. The huge verdant mountains, 7-level goblins cooperate with radar exploration, and excavate non-stop day and night. A[-] and above levels can be excavated every day. The output of metal is only hundreds of tons, and it is even less if it is refined into pure metal resources.

Moreover, most of these high-level ore veins are micro-scale ore veins. After a day or two of digging, the ore veins are exhausted, and no more ore can be dug out.

After thinking about it for a while, Lan Feng felt that he could indeed spend some energy on this.

Of course, for the sake of safety, this organization that sells high-value items cannot be established in Lan Feng's current capacity. Instead, he can only secretly support an obedient subordinate to operate and collect gold and other high-level metals.

This matter will become one of the most important things that Lan Feng will do in Hyderin Kingdom next.

After Lan Feng had finished selecting the slaves and purchased some exquisite furniture, he had just returned to the manor when the two teams transporting the slaves arrived on time.

One was a slave purchased from Raymond, a slave trader.

The other is a slave bought by the Dark Night Organization.

The former, from the slave trader Raymond, are mainly female slaves with certain outstanding abilities, such as cooks, gardeners, tea artisans, pastry chefs, maids, etc., a total of thirty.

The latter, from the Dark Night Organization, are mostly male.

Among them, twenty third-tier slave fighters, thirty second-tier slave fighters, and a housekeeper with good management skills. I heard that he used to be a housekeeper for a nobleman for many years. Later, because he offended this nobleman, the whole family was punished by this. A nobleman was sold as a slave.

Among the fifty fighters in total, human fighters accounted for only a small number, exactly ten, and the remaining forty fighters were all orc fighters.

The number of human slave fighters is small because human slave fighters are more sought-after. If you train them, with a big stick in one hand and sweet dates in the other, you may be able to gain a group of diehard loyalists.

The orc warriors are different. These orc warriors from different orc clans have a certain degree of resentment towards almost all humans after being captured by the human slave hunting team.

Unlike human slave fighters, human slaves live in the human world, and many of them have relatives. Even if they don't have relatives, where can they go with the imprint of slaves?field?

Orc slaves are different. Their homes are not in the human world. After escaping from the human world and returning to their own clan, they will not be arrested because of the slave mark, so once they find a chance to resist, there is a high probability that they will The Internet will do some bad things to the owner who bought them.

In the past history of the Hydelin Kingdom, there have been many violent resistance incidents in which orc slaves killed the nobles or wealthy merchants who bought them.

Therefore, even if merchants or nobles buy orc slave fighters, they do so within the scope of their own control, and they will not invest too much resources in these orc slave fighters.

These orc slave fighters are often used to participate in some extremely dangerous and high-mortality things, and they are used as consumables.

"Mr. Lante, please pay attention to these orc slave fighters. It is best to untie the secret pattern handcuffs and shackles when your own safety is guaranteed."

After receiving the follow-up money, the consul who organized the dark night organization to transport the slaves solemnly instructed Lan Feng.

They don't want to spread the news that the slaves sold by their organization killed their masters. For a slave organization, this will definitely affect the business.

Lan Feng nodded understandingly, and said with a smile, "Thank you for reminding me."

After the two consuls left, under Lan Feng's signal, Aiolos closed the gate of the manor, and then led the fifty slave soldiers to the depths of the manor.

The remaining [-] female human slaves who have not undergone training and only have various types of specialties and the middle-aged butler stayed.

Lan Feng stood in front of these people and glanced at them indifferently.

The slaves were obviously a little nervous. After all, no one knew the character of the master who bought them. If they encountered an extremely cruel master, they would definitely end up miserable.

After scanning around, Lan Feng finally cast his eyes on the middle-aged butler, and asked,
"What's your name?"

"Master, my name is Brom." The middle-aged man replied respectfully.

"Okay, Brome, from now on, you will be in charge of and assign work to these 30 people. For the time being, I only have one requirement for you, that is, to make all the facilities of this manor work well, so that I can enjoy them at any time. It’s enough to provide basic necessities, food, housing and transportation.”

"Of order, master." Brom nodded respectfully and bowed down.

Lan Feng nodded, and didn't continue to say anything unnutritious. She waved her hand and asked them to follow the housekeeper, Brom, and start assigning their own work one by one from now on.

"Sophia, go and see how the furniture should be arranged and how the room should be decorated."

Lan Feng turned his head, touched Sophia's little head, and said with a smile.

Sophia nodded obediently, she is not stupid, she understands that Lan Feng has something to do and it is not convenient for her to participate.

In two months, this dark elf girl has almost completely transformed into Lan Feng's exclusive shape.

Submissive and extremely well-behaved, Lan Feng has already figured out the essence of this dark elf girl's character.

It is precisely because of this that Lan Feng only brought her to the human world, not others.

In the depths of the manor is a lush white jade bamboo forest.

The fifty slave fighters all fell to the ground at this moment, groaning in pain.

Aside, Aiolos stands like a golden iron tower.

Seeing Lan Feng approaching, Aiolos stopped practicing with this group of slave fighters.

This is what Lan Feng asked Aiolos to do.

His idea is very simple, let this group of slave fighters realize the huge gap in their own strength and realize their own weakness.

Plant a seed in their brains, the chances of success in resistance are slim, but they will 100% catch the seed of their own life.

Aiolos hit the big stick in place, and Lan Feng will give the sweet dates behind.

Looking at the group of slave soldiers in distress on the ground, Lan Feng came to them and said indifferently,
"I'll just tell you two things."

"1. I paid money to buy you, not for a group of permanent slaves. After one year, I will remove the slave marks for you and let you go."

"2, do things well for me this year, obey my master's orders, do what I tell you to do, don't give me too much thought."

Hearing the words of erasing the slave mark and letting them go, the fifty slave warriors who were moaning in pain suddenly looked at Lan Feng in unison, their eyes filled with disbelief.

But then a slave soldier thought of something, and there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

Apparently, the slave fighters who thought they had guessed the truth believed that the reason why the master who bought them was willing to remove the slave mark and set them free a year later must be because they would not let them live for a year at all.

It is estimated that they are asked to perform tasks with a high mortality rate.

"Huh? Why, do you think I'm lying to you?" Lan Feng turned his gaze to the lion-human slave warrior, his tone cold.

The lion-human slave warrior was silent and did not speak.

Those who can be captured as slaves must hope to live.

Otherwise, if you really want to commit suicide, who has the skill to keep looking at you as a slave?
Those who really wanted to commit suicide would have committed suicide a long time ago, and would not appear here again.

"If you don't say it, then I will say it for you."

"Do you think that I will not let you live for a year because I give you such good conditions?" Lan Feng said lightly.

The lion slave fighter was silent, and the other orc slave fighters and human slave fighters were also startled at this moment. Indeed, there is such a possibility.

And there's a good chance.

Lan Feng didn't care about the suspicion in their eyes at the moment, just smiled lightly,
"Your strength is very weak, very weak, less than one percent of Aiolos. There are two reasons for setting a one-year time limit. One is that I only stay in the Hydelin Kingdom for one year. Here I need some people to do some chores, another reason is that I don’t want slaves who don’t know their own strength to provoke their masters, I’m lazy, and I don’t want to spend time buying another batch of slaves.”

"Understandable?"

After listening to Lan Feng's simple and straightforward words, the fifty slave warriors looked at each other, with a glimmer of hope in their eyes. The lion-human slave warrior from before also restrained his disbelief, and was somewhat skeptical.

This is not to say how strong Lan Feng's personality is.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Lan Feng showed his muscles at the beginning, extinguishing all kinds of thoughts of these slave soldiers, and then gave them the hope of regaining freedom with straightforward words.

As long as this group of slave fighters did not receive any excessive abuse or the death rate was extremely high, within one year, this group of slave fighters would almost certainly not betray Lan Feng.

Because the price of betrayal is too great.

However, following Lan Feng's orders, one year later, it is possible to regain freedom and rebirth.

This group of slave fighters has been able to endure all kinds of training and abuse by the slave merchants, and they have not committed suicide, which means that one counts as one, and they all want to live.

Whether it is purely thinking about living, or there are enemies who want to kill and has been forbearing, or there are relatives in the world, who are unwilling to die like this.

On the contrary, they just don't want to die, this is their weakness, and Lan Feng drew them a cake called hope, thus controlling their weakness.

"It's good to understand everything, and then you will obey Aiolos' orders. His orders are my orders, and you must not disobey them."

"Yes, Master!"

Fifty slave warriors mixed with humans and orcs responded in a deep voice.

It would definitely be a bit difficult for them to obey Steward Brom, who is also a slave, unconditionally. After all, although this group of slave fighters is weak to Lan Feng, their strength at the second and third levels is more or less elite in the human world. If they want to live a well-to-do life and live a simple life, and let them obey Brom, who is weak and also a slave, there should be no accidents, but there may be problems in the execution of orders.

But let them obey the orders of Aiolos, then these fifty slave fighters definitely said that there is no problem.

After all, Aiolos is a strong man who can easily beat fifty of them with one hand.

Sometimes it is a kind of luck to be able to work under such strong men.

A few hours later, in the restaurant.

Lan Feng slowly ate a well-done steak. This steak was not from an ordinary cow, but from a first-tier monster bull.

The meat was al dente, the taste was good, and it was more energizing.

While eating, Lan Feng muttered to Butler Brom, who stood beside him like a sculpture,

"Brom, later you go to the house sales place in Nicole City to find a manager named Leto, and pay him for a consultation."
