Chapter 286 Be patient (4.2K first update)
Dark area, Malagas City.
"Damn, those two damn bastards! They dare to run away! I was punished by my master!"
Bang!
"Don't let me catch them, otherwise I must have peeled them off with my own hands!!!"
Bang!
"I said before, regardless of whether there is a curse on them or not, they should have slap hard and then starve for three more days!"
Bang!
"That way, they will know who their benefactor is!"
Bang!
The rough and heroic voice exploded with the sound of the whip, causing the bodies of other slaves locked in the cage to shake involuntarily.
They looked timidly and resentfully at the chief guard who abused the slaves and cursed him angrily.
There was fear in the eyes of the slaves, but more of comfort.
It was not because the bloody slave who was being sucked was their enemy, but because of the guard's appearance at this moment.
At this moment, the guard Karim looked extremely miserable. A blood hole suddenly broke into his right eye socket, and the eyeballs disappeared, and fresh flesh and blood were beating in the fire.
The sticky plasma flowed from his eye sockets, dyeing half of his vicious face red, making his appearance even more ferocious.
Because of poor supervision, he actually let go of the two most important slaves, and he was severely punished by the caravan owner!
The mysterious mage dug out Karim's right eye with his own hands and applied special spells on his eye sockets to prevent the flesh and blood from scabs there. He could only feel the eyes being slowly pulled out at all times. the pain.
At the same time, the mage also used Karim's blood to leave a strangely shaped scarlet sashimi on half of his face.
This is a punishment.
But at the same time, it is also a gift.
At the moment when the scarlet sashimi was completed, the guard who originally had only mid-level strength was actually promoted to the higher level!
In addition, despite losing his right eye, Karim also gained a completely new ability—a new vision.
The empty right eye cannot see the picture in the eyes of a normal person, but it can see traces of magic that cannot be observed before!
This was a "gift" given to him by the caravan owner, allowing him to continue chasing the two fleeing slaves.
Although, the heavy price Karim paid is a stare and always in pain and anger.
In addition, he felt more fear in his heart than pain.
Fear of death.
He knew that the caravan owner gave him the last chance.
If he fails this time, then he will only die when he meets himself.
No, no, I'm afraid I'll experience even more terrible things before death!
He would become a slave, then be broken and thrown into the group of bugs that had been trampled by himself.
What would these guys do then?
Karim dared not think about it.
"Ha ha……"
After venting his willfulness, Karim gasped and glanced at the other slaves with fierce eyes.
Seeing that the slaves avoided their sight, he threw down the whip in his hand with satisfaction and spitted phlegm at the lying "corpse" on the ground.
"Pooh!"
He stepped on his big foot on the slave's chest and threatened to the others: "You all look forward to it, this is the end of not obeying the order!"
"If you don't want to be like him, hurry up and tell me all the news you know!"
Karim widened his eyes and shouted, "Say! Where did they go!!!"
His appearance is already very scary, and he has lost his eyes at this moment, and he looks even more cunning.
The entire cell was silent, and no one spoke at this time.
If they don't say that they don't know how Theresa and the others ran away, even if they know, they won't tell this guy.
They never believed in all the benefits Karim promised.
Believe in him?
It would be better to believe that the gods will descend angels to save them!
Anyway, Karim will definitely not be free to himself. Even if he rumored, what are the benefits?
"Tsk!"
Karim obviously knew that his reputation was not very good, and he gritted his teeth in anger and said, "You don't say it, right? OK! I see you are looking for death..."
As he said that, he was about to go to the cage and catch a new lucky person to kill the chicken to warn the monkey.
But just as he stepped, the "corpse" under him suddenly reacted and grabbed his pants' legs.
"Um?"
Karim was stunned, frowned and looked down at the dying slave.
What does this guy mean?
"I, I..."
A weak and hoarse voice came from the slave's mouth, which seemed particularly harsh in the quiet space.
"I know……"
Karim:! ! !
"You know?"
The tyrannical guardian was shocked, and he bent over excitedly. He picked up the slave who was almost invisible to the ground and questioned loudly.
"Say! Say it out everything you know!"
"Speak quickly!"
The slave himself was tortured to the point of being unnatural. At this moment, he was shaken violently and fainted without saying a word.
Karim was stunned at first, then shook in panic, his movements more forcefully than before.
"Hey!? You! You wake up!"
He turned his head and shouted at the other guards guarding outside the door, "Get me medicine quickly! Hurry!"
He was anxious.
In fact, Karim has no choice but to be in a hurry.
This is the only clue now. If this guy really died and was abused to death by himself...
When the caravan owner learned about it, he was afraid that he would not be able to save his other eye!
Fortunately, the situation is not that bad.
Before the guard arrived with the wounded medicine, the slave had come to his senses and coughed violently.
"Cough! Cough..."
After coughing, he tried hard to open his eyes that had been stained with blood and stared at the chief guard in front of him with difficulty.
"Speak quickly, where did they go?"
This time Karim's voice became much smaller, and his movements became several times softer, and he asked carefully.
The slave looked at Karim's panic look and grinned, revealing the teeth that had been pulled over.
"Haha, they..."
"She is here..."
As he said that, his eyes moved and looked behind Karim, with a deep weirdness revealing in his smile.
"There's there."
Karim narrowed his eyes, thinking about the meaning of this sentence.
Just there?
Behind me! ?
Without thinking too much, Karim suddenly turned around and pulled out the dagger from his waist as he turned his head.
But behind him, there was nothing except his shadow reflected by the fire.
No, there is still something outside that - the sneered look at them.
Karim's face darkened and realized the truth.
Being tricked.
I was played hard by the other party like a child! ?
"You dare to fool me!!!?"
Karim's expression was extremely ugly, and his anger made more blood flow out of his eyes, almost dyeing half of his body red.
"Okay, okay, I'll let you know what the price will be paid!"
He gritted his teeth, grabbed the slave's neck with force, and whispered sinisterly: "Just endure it with me!"
"I will definitely let you..."
Just as Karim's big hand was about to crush the man's neck, a cold blade pierced into his back as the shadows flashed under his feet.
laugh--
"cough!?"
Karim froze in place, trying to speak, but a lot of blood choked into his throat.
The blade not only shattered the heart, but also pierced his trachea.
Dong.
Karim loosened his palm and threw the slave who was about to die.
The slave's posture hit the ground tragically, but he widened his eyes and tried to see what was happening in front of him.
The chief guard who was still wantonly abused him not long ago was now bent down his knees and smashed heavily to the ground.
That funny gesture...yes, it's like a slave!
Seeing this scene, satisfaction flashed in the slave's eyes, and a deformed sneer was squeezed out of his throat.
"Ha, hoho..."
Then, he closed his eyes with satisfaction and took his last breath.
He is dead.
But Karim has not died completely.
He felt severe pain in his chest, and he wanted to turn around and attack, but his body could not move at all, so he could only kneel on the ground in humiliation.
What the hell happened! ?
Just as he was thinking, a little hoarse sarcasm came from behind: "I'm not dead yet? Haha, your life is harder than I thought!"
Quinna emerged from the shadows and pressed the dagger that stabbed Karim's back deeper.
laugh--
"Uhhhhhhhh!"
Karim's expression was twisted due to the severe pain, and he roared hard: "You... don't, escape..."
The rest of the words were blocked in his mouth by a dirty rag, turning into a weak whimper.
Quinna looked at his miserable appearance and laughed jokingly, "What are you shouting? If you are a man, just hold it back!"
She mocked, preparing to give Karim a final blow.
After dealing with this guy and liberating all the slaves here, she can go to find Teresa who is hidden.
The city was so weird that she had to change her plans in advance and take them out of here.
"This infiltration mission can only fail. I hope you don't blame me...well?"
Quinna suddenly had a look of expression.
Because, just now, she seemed to see the corpse of the slave lying on the ground moving.
Click.
No, that's not an illusion! ! !
Just under her shocked gaze, the slave who had just died suddenly opened his eyes.
"roar……"
The resurrected corpse stood up with its body bowed in a twisted posture, then instantly rushed towards Karim in front of him and bit him.
laugh.
However, because all the teeth were pulled out before his death, they did not cause any substantial damage. They could only repeat the movements of chewing at Karim.
"not good!"
Quinna's mood became extremely heavy as she looked at the resurrected zombies and the terrified dodging Karim.
She knew why she was so uneasy.
Here, in this city... all dead creatures will be transformed into undead creatures!
This city has been shrouded in a huge territory.
what does that mean?
It means that there is a powerful existence here who has subdivided the magic circle and is preparing to hold a super-large ceremony.
Either a sacrifice ceremony to the gods, or a special advanced ceremony, or...
And no matter what this represents, it all means one thing.
Her lips curled bitterly, and she let go of the dagger stuck on Karim's back weakly, and murmured, "Damn it, something big happened now."
"Tresa, we probably can't escape..."
...
...
The city lord's mansion.
In the extremely luxurious room, the noble lady who hid her entire face under the black veil lay lazily on the huge bed.
She was playing with a thick bone in her hand, shaking back and forth, teasing the black giant dog guarding under the bed.
Dongdong.
The door was gently knocked, and a respectful but powerful fear sounded behind the door.
"lady."
The woman's eyes moved under the black veil, and she looked behind the door and chuckled twice.
"Haha, what's wrong?"
The woman's voice was extremely charming, full of endless temptation and a sense of depravity.
It was like poisonous honey flowing into the cochlea and winding down along the spine, causing the body to become weak unconsciously.
Gu.
The waiter outside the door subconsciously swallowed after hearing the charming voice, and obsession flashed in his eyes, and wanted to push the door and push it in.
But before he could push the door, he suddenly came to his senses, bite the tip of his tongue hard, and control his crazy impulse.
He froze in place, his voice tremblingly reported: "There are outsiders who violated the taboo and killed slaves in the city."
Seeing that the waiter held back, the lady hummed a little boredly, without squeezing her eyelids, and said casually:
"You know what to do. If you break the rules, then deal with them and never let the ritual be exposed."
"Yes, understand."
The waiter nodded respectfully, then asked hesitantly, "Madam, is it not the time yet? Many people have already wanted to leave early. If they are restricted, it will probably attract the attention of others."
Maragas has only been allowed to enter and leave for half a month, and many people who want to leave the city have been secretly controlled by them.
But this kind of forced restrictions is not a long-term solution, and some people who are interested will definitely notice it.
But the woman was still calm and said casually: "What's there to worry about?"
"Those people want to leave, then give them a reason to not want to leave."
"Wealth, slaves, power... as long as they want, the Moores can give it to them."
The waiter's expression moved, and finally nodded with difficulty: "...I understand, I know what to do."
After saluting respectfully, the waiter quietly left.
In the room, the woman stretched her waist slightly and said softly, "It's not time yet, and my Lord needs more sacrifices."
As she said that, she threw the bone out and let the giant dog bite happily.
The woman looked at the corners of the giant dog's head and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
“He needs more kinds of sacrifices.”
"A stronger sacrifice is needed."
She smiled, looked down at her palm and whispered softly:
"Not enough, not enough."
"Be patient."
"It's still a little bit short, it's just a little bit short..."
...
...
"Everyone, we are about to arrive at a camp where the slave merchants temporarily rested outside the dark area."
At this moment, Herbert, who plays the personal waiter of "The Great Slave Merchant Ms. Eliza", was comforting the disguised monks with a serious look:
"I know you are all uncomfortable as slaves, but you still have to work hard and endure it."
"Don't rush to attack other slave merchants, we will rescue the slaves, but not now!"
“We have only one priority at the moment!”
"As long as we can sneak into the dark area smoothly, we can collect all the required materials in Maracas City!"
