MTL - My Summons Are Weird-Chapter 16 Argonians with a spirit of rebellion
"Dhaka, my servant died during the trip. Now I want to buy a slave. Do you know where to go?"
Dhaka and Lu Yu had another drink, and he was dizzy after drinking, and he saw a double image.
"Slave...slave?" Daka stammered for several times before he continued, "You came by coincidence."
"Not long ago, hiccup... A group of slaves were shipped from the southern border and the western border. They arrived in the royal city only a few days ago."
"Outside Wangcheng, in the highland next to the racecourse in the western suburbs, they only sell at night."
The drunk Dhaka smiled, the folds all over his face were crowded together.
"I heard that among the slaves who came this time, there are quite a few very beautiful...you know."
Lu Yu didn't mean to answer, he just called the waiter and paid the order.
Seeing Daka lying on the table and falling asleep, the waiter smiled and told Lu Yu that there was no need to worry.
"It never closes, and people drink until dawn every day. If it really takes the place of other guests, we will also send it to the room to rest."
Lu Yu nodded. He was very grateful to this adventurer who gave him a lot of information.
After walking out of the tavern, Lu Yu asked Lulutis, "How much does it cost to buy a slave?"
"It depends on what kind of slave it is. Good looking, strong ones are always in demand."
"Based on this, mixed-race slaves tend to be slightly more expensive because they conform to human aesthetics and generally look good."
"If there are no special circumstances, go in with a silver coin, and you are qualified to choose those good slaves."
Hearing that one silver coin is enough, and it just so happens that it is impossible to rent a house at this point, Lu Yu planned to go to the slave market mentioned in Dhaka.
Before leaving, Lu Yu bought a robe that could cover his figure at the stall on the street.
With the cover of the robe and the cover of the night, Lulutis can finally run out of the backpack to get some air.
She climbed up Lu Yu's waist and came behind Lu Yu's shoulder.
In this position, she can clearly see the scenery outside.
"Fresh air, a less oppressive space, and the strong popularity around here..."
As soon as Lulutis came out, she sighed.
"You have to hide, if someone sees it, we will be in bad luck." Lu Yu reminded.
Lulutis agreed, saying that in the event of an accident, she would quickly stay away from Lu Yu, and then find a chance to meet again.
After coming out from the west gate of Wangcheng, Lu Yu, bathed in the moonlight, kept looking for the location of the racecourse along the roadside signs.
At first, Lu Yu was worried about getting lost and safety issues, but along the way he saw many knights patrolling the road.
According to Dhaka, these knights are all direct descendants of the Yas Kingdom. They are all elites from the Kingdom Knights, and their morals and talents are not the same dimension as the subordinates trained by ordinary nobles.
With them leading the patrol, the vicinity of the royal city has always been peaceful.
About an hour later, Lu Yu saw a large number of carriages parked on the side of the main road.
Looking ahead along the position of the drinking horse, near the woods not far away, there are dense torches, and there are even spar filled with magic elements acting as lighting equipment.
Crossing a small stream, Lu Yu followed the torches on both sides of the road.
Vulgar yelling, angry yelling, frivolous teasing, a woman's coquettish anger, howling in pain...
The moment he stepped into the slave market, the decibels of these voices were full.
At this moment, Lu Yu seemed to be in a vegetable market during the festival. All kinds of noises made his head hurt.
Chaos was his first impression of this place.
Under the dim light, there is a shadow on everyone's face here. As the light shakes, it constantly twists and changes, as if a little person is dancing on their faces.
Here, luxuriously dressed people often wear masks, stand reservedly in the distance, and send their servants forward to make bids.
The ordinary adventurers, on the other hand, gathered carelessly in front of some disheveled slave cages, enjoying this expensive entertainment.
As for ordinary people with lower spending power, they have no ability to appear here.
Before Lu Yu entered the market, the knight guarding the entrance asked to show a silver coin to prove his purchasing ability as an admission ticket.
Most of the slaves imprisoned in metal cages had their faces lowered, unwilling to look at anyone.
However, this kind of avoidance is obviously not popular with the onlookers.
After an accusation against the slave trader, a long stick reached into the cage and slammed behind the disheveled slave who wanted to avoid humiliation.
After several more attempts, the inescapable slave finally lifted his hair with his shackled hands, revealing his already somewhat empty eyes.
When he was a child, he saw that when adults grabbed piglets, they would often hit the ground with a wooden stick, and from time to time they would go up to pump a free-range piglet and scare it into a corner to catch it.
Lu Yu stopped and took a look. She was a very good-looking girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old.
For the girl's performance, the onlookers were obviously very satisfied, and couldn't help laughing.
The harsh laughter made the girl tremble with fear.
Seeing Lu Yu standing still, Lulutis sighed.
"You don't need to say it, I know."
Lu Yu seemed to know what Lulutis was thinking. He looked at the smiling faces around him, and then at the slaves in the cage, trying to suppress the tremor in his heart.
"I'm not a saint, let alone a god. I can't save each of them."
"Even if I can save them, I can't save them."
"I'll be mentally prepared when I come."
Lu Yu only had one ticket in hand, and he dared not say that his ship was solid and reliable.
But at least the person who got this ticket doesn't have to be locked in a cage, sell it in the form of goods again, and won't be scrutinized back and forth with malicious eyes.
Only one.
In the future, he will encounter many such things in his travels, so he must calmly deal with his emotional problems.
After calming down, Lu Yu pulled down the fabric covering his face.
There are no twists and turns in the transactions in the slave market.
If you want to inspect the goods, it is also simple. Just tell the corresponding slave merchant, and he will send someone into a special cage to lead the slave out, and let you check it yourself.
Of course, if you think it's dirty, they can do it for you.
A demi-human male of the beast-ear tribe beside Lu Yu was being examined by a client.
This man, who was obviously a servant of the nobles, held a spar with a faint purple light and looked around on the male beast-eared man.
This tawny-furred, almost pure-blooded demihuman is very muscular, so the squire punched him heavily.
Seeing that the demi-human just snorted and showed no signs of instability, he returned to his master with great satisfaction and reported the situation.
After a while, the squire returned again and ordered.
"Remove his shackles and chains, and take him to the next martial arts arena."
"Our master bought his bravery. If it can't be used much, he should continue to be an exhibit in the cage."
Lu Yu found that when the man said he was going to throw him back into the iron cage, the demi-human was shaking.
"Guests can have their favorite goods. We not only have good warriors here, but also several good magicians to choose from."
Because of the squire's departure, Lu Yu, who stayed here for a long time and watched, became the target of the slave trader's chat.
Seeing that Lu Yu didn't turn around and leave immediately, the experienced slave trader immediately realized that this was a potential buyer.
He then asked, "Do you want a man or a woman?"
"There are not many men left. There are a lot of lords along the way. After arriving at the royal city, the nobles also bought a lot."
"There are still many options for women. If you just look at their appearance, they can definitely meet your various needs."
Lu Yu knew that the slave trader who was as fat as a ball was trying his best to confirm his preferences.
A silver coin was taken out by Lu Yu.
"Let me see what a silver coin can buy with you."
A chubby businessman doesn't pick customers either. As long as someone is willing to buy it, he is his guest.
He left a sidekick behind and led Lu Yu to an open space not far away.
The sound of chains colliding in here, which was originally the racetrack's track, continued.
Slave merchants from all over the world temporarily store their goods here. They will first select slaves who are easy to sell, and sell them as soon as they are in good condition.
And the remaining backlog of goods will be packaged and sold to some people who need cheap slave labor when they leave a trading area.
The fat businessman brought Lu Yu to his group of slaves, and waved lightly at his subordinates.
Under the urging of the fat merchant's magician, the group of shackled goods stood up one by one, looking at Lu Yu as if to welcome the inspection.
There is some hope in the eyes of some people, as if they feel that no matter where they go, it is better to stay here.
And some people are no different from the goods that Lu Yu saw in the cage attracting attention and attracting guests for slave traders.
There is no light in their eyes.
Lu Yu doesn't feel that he is the savior of the world, nor does he intend to be the savior of the world, but...
When you have an opportunity to let people return to the sun from the abyss, you should always want to give this opportunity to the one with the most rebellious spirit.
At least he is resisting, he is protesting against this fate with his actions.
If you give in and feel as numb as everyone else...
Just want a body, Lu Yu can find more.
Lu Yu's eyes swept back and forth on the slave's body, looking for the person he wanted.
"Oberto, you should collect your defective products. If you sell this kind of mixed-race inferior to customers, you are not afraid of disturbing the big man and accepting your trade name?"
Lu Yu was distressed, and there seemed to be some small episodes near the "shelf" on the other end.
An old man in a red robe who seemed to be the manager of the slave market gave a lesson to the tall and thin man named Oberto.
Behind the old man, a man with long silver hair was dragged by two guards to the edge of Oberto's booth.
Oberto looked cramped, and hurriedly explained: "This... disturbed the big man, where does this come from?"
"Your Yalong just lost control of her dragon transformation. If it wasn't for her weakness, then the count's... hum... the entourage of the distinguished guest would be killed by her."
"This kind of uncontrolled monster, don't sell it. Even if you want to sell it, don't hide the information. If something goes wrong, you and I will be held accountable!"
"Oberto sells goods, the verification is not strict, and a penalty will be issued." The old man announced loudly to the surrounding.
After speaking, he stayed where he was and had a conversation with Oberto before leading the guards away.
Looking at Oberto, who was in mourning, and the details of Oberto waving his hand to let his attendant come forward, it is not difficult to see that he suffered a big loss.
After the old man left, Lulutis reminded Lu Yu: "The old man was a third-order magician just now, and he should be the highest-ranking magician here today."
Lu Yu's focus was not on the old magician.
"A Yalong, a half-blood with dragon blood?"
When Lu Yu came to this world, he hadn't seen many weird things. He thought that dragons would take a long time to be lucky enough to see them, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to see the Yalong people here today.
Not only Lu Yu, but the guests next to him also gathered around Oberto.
They didn't want to buy this Argonian, they just wanted to see what this guy who was going to lose control looked like.
When he got closer, Lu Yu realized that this Yalong man was a girl.
Lu Yu couldn't use the knowledge he learned from Lulutis today to judge the bloodline ratio of this Yalong.
Her head has reddish-brown sharp horns, and the color of her skin looks like rose-brown at first glance, but it seems to be mixed with some light gray. The overall look has a strange beauty.
This beauty should be related to her bloodline.
The well-proportioned body proportion makes her lying on the ground gasping for breath.
Someone dared to go forward to brush her messy hair and admire her appearance, but was blocked by the irritable Oberto.
Oberto said to the onlookers: "Since the management has said that this cargo is dangerous, I can only lock her up again and destroy it later."
"If everyone wants to buy other goods, please tell my servants that today's shopping expenses will be reduced or exempted, and it will be regarded as compensation for this episode."
After he finished speaking, the magic power in Oberto's hands surged, restraining the Argonian who was trying to struggle, dragging her silver-white hair and dragging her to the back of the racks of cages.
Lu Yu thought for a while and chose to follow.
"Since you want to die so much, then I will grant your wish."
"When the goods in the king's city are sold out, I will sell you to the garrison in the east of the king's city, and let you be the bait to lure monsters."
"If you like to bite, then let you know what it feels like to be bitten."
"Pfft."
The Argonians spat out a large piece of flesh and threw it on Oberto's face.
The missing bones and flesh are back in the light, but his master probably doesn't want to see it anymore.
The Argonians did not smile because of Oberto's embarrassment, but stared at him with vicious eyes.
Oberto's blood was surging, he took out the magic tool he carried with him, and under the surging magic power, he had already planned to abolish this treasure that he had spent a lot of money to get back from another businessman.
I thought I could make a lot of money, but I didn't expect that not only would I lose money, but I almost had to be disqualified from the kingdom's slave market.
"and many more."
Oberto's hand froze in mid-air, maintaining a strange posture about to release magic.
He turned his head and looked into the darkness not far away.
Lu Yu, who was covered in a robe, walked out slowly.
"It's not too late for you to kill her when I see the goods and think it's inappropriate."
