Chapter 16 16. The Asian Dragon with a Rebellious Spirit

"Daka, my servant died of illness during the trip. Now I want to buy a slave. Do you know where to go?"

Daka clinked glasses with Lu Yu again. He was so drunk that he could see double.

"Slave...slave?" Daka stuttered several times before continuing, "You came at the right time."

"Not long ago, a batch of slaves were transported from the southern border and the western border. They arrived in the royal city a few days ago."

"Outside the royal city, on the high ground next to the racecourse in the western suburbs, they only sell them at night."

Drunk Daka smiled, and all the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together.

"I heard that there are many very beautiful slaves among the slaves who came this time...you know."

Lu Yu did not intend to answer the question, but called the waiter and paid the bill.

Seeing Daka sleeping on the table, the waiter smiled and told Lu Yu not to worry.

"This place is never closed. People drink until dawn every day. If you really take up other guests' seats, we will send you to your room to rest."

Lu Yu nodded. He was very grateful to this adventurer who gave him a lot of information.

After leaving the tavern, Lu Yu asked Lulutis: "How much does it cost to buy a slave in your place?"

"It depends on what kind of slave it is. Good-looking and strong ones are always in high demand."

"Based on this basis, the price of mixed-blood slaves is often slightly higher because they meet human aesthetics and generally look good."

"If there are no special circumstances, take a silver coin in and you will be eligible to choose those good slaves."

Hearing that one silver coin is enough, and it happened that it was impossible to rent a house at this point, Lu Yu planned to go to the slave market mentioned by Dhaka.

Before leaving, Lu Yu bought a robe that could cover his body at a street stall.

With the robe covering him and the cover of the night, Lulutis could finally run out of the backpack to get some fresh air.

She climbed up Lu Yu's waist and came to Lu Yu's shoulder.

At this position, she could clearly see the scenery outside.

"Fresh air, not so oppressive space, and the strong popularity around here..."

Lulutis sighed as soon as she came out.

"You have to hide well. If we are seen, we will be in big trouble." Lu Yu reminded.

Lulutis promised, saying that if something happened, she would quickly stay away from Lu Yu and then find a chance to meet again.

After coming out of the west gate of the royal city, Lu Yu, bathed in the moonlight, kept looking for the location of the racecourse along the roadside signs.

At first, Lu Yu was also worried about getting lost and safety issues, but along the way he saw many knights patrolling on both sides of the road.

According to Daka, these knights are all direct descendants of the Kingdom of Yas. They are elites from the Kingdom Knights. No matter their character and talents, they are not in 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 forward from the watering point, there were dense torches beside the grove not far away, and crystals filled with magic elements were used as lighting.

Crossing a stream, Lu Yu walked along the torches on both sides of the road.

Vulgar shouting, angry roars, frivolous teasing, women's coquettishness, painful howling...

The moment he stepped into the slave market, the decibels of these sounds were full.

At this moment, Lu Yu seemed to be in a vegetable market during the festival, and all kinds of noises made his head hurt.

Chaos was his first impression of this place.

Under the dim light, everyone here had a shadow on their face, which kept distorting and changing with the shaking of the light, as if a little man was dancing on their faces.

Here, people dressed in luxurious clothes often wear masks, stand reservedly in the distance, and casually send servants to bid.

The adventurers of ordinary status gathered carelessly in front of some disheveled slave cages, enjoying this free entertainment.

As for ordinary people with lower spending power, they were not able to appear here.

Before entering the market, Lu Yu was asked by the knight guarding the entrance to show his silver coins to prove his purchasing power as an admission ticket.

Most of the slaves imprisoned in the metal cages lowered their heads and were unwilling to look at anyone.

However, this avoidance was obviously not welcomed by the onlookers.

After a round of accusations against the slave traders, a long stick was stretched into the cage and suddenly hit the slave who wanted to avoid humiliation with disheveled hair.

After several times, the slave who had nowhere to escape finally lifted his hair with his shackled hands, revealing his already empty eyes.

When he was a child, he saw adults often knocking on the ground with a wooden stick when catching piglets, and from time to time they would go forward and whip the free-range piglets, scaring them into the corner so that they could catch them.

Lu Yu stopped and took a look. It was a very pretty girl, about 17 or 18 years old, with delicate features, and no trace of mixed blood.

The onlookers were obviously very satisfied with the girl's performance and couldn't help laughing.

The shrill laughter made the girl tremble with fear.

Seeing Lu Yu standing still, Lu Lutis sighed.

"You don't have to say it, I know."

Lu Yu seemed to know what Lulutis was thinking. He looked at the smiling faces around him, then at the slaves in the cage, and tried to suppress the trembling in his heart.

"I am not a saint, let alone a god. I can't save every one of them."

"Even if I can save them, I can't protect them."

"I was mentally prepared when I came."

Lu Yu only had one ticket in his hand. He didn't dare to say that his ship was solid and reliable.

But at least the person who got this ticket didn't have to be locked in a cage, sold again as goods, and would no longer be looked at with malicious eyes.

Only one.

He would encounter many such things in his future travels, so he had to deal with his emotional problems calmly.

After calming down, Lu Yu pulled down the cloth covering his face.

There was no twists and turns in the transactions in the slave market. One hand paid the money and the other hand delivered the goods.

If you want to inspect the goods, it is also simple. Just tell the corresponding slave trader, and he will send someone into the special cage to lead the slave out, so that you can personally check it.

Of course, if you find it dirty, they can do it for you.

A male subhuman from the beast-ear tribe beside Lu Yu was being examined by a customer.

This man, who was obviously a noble attendant, was holding a crystal stone with a faint purple glow and checking around the male beast-ear man.

This subhuman with yellow-brown fur and close to pure blood had well-developed muscles, so the attendant punched him hard.

Seeing that the subhuman just snorted lightly and showed no signs of instability, he returned to his master with great satisfaction and reported the situation.

Not long after, the attendant returned again and ordered.

"Remove his shackles and chains and take him to the martial arts field next door."

"Our master bought his bravery. If he is not useful, he should continue to be an exhibit in the cage."

Lu Yu found that when the man said he would throw him back into the iron cage, the subhuman was trembling.

"Do you have any goods you like? We not only have warriors with good strength, but also several good magicians to choose from."

Because his entourage left, Lu Yu, who had been watching here for a long time, became the target of the slave trader's chat.

Seeing that Lu Yu did not turn around and leave immediately, the experienced slave trader immediately realized that he was a potential buyer.

He then asked: "Do you want a man or a woman?"

"There are not many men left. Many lords along the way wanted it. After arriving in the royal city, the nobles also bought a lot of them."

"There are still many women to choose from. If you just look at their appearance, they will definitely meet your various needs."

Lu Yu knew that the fat slave trader in front of him was trying hard to confirm his preferences.

A silver coin was taken out by Lu Yu.

"Let me see what I can buy with one silver coin."

The chubby merchant did not pick his customers. As long as someone was willing to buy, he would be his guest.

He left a follower and led Lu Yu to an open space not far away.

The sound of chains colliding here was constant on the track of the racecourse.

Slave traders from all over the world temporarily store their goods here. They will first select slaves that are easy to sell and sell them as soon as possible while they are still in good condition.

The remaining backlog of goods will be packaged and sold to some people who need cheap slaves when they leave a trading area.

The fat merchant brought Lu Yu to his group of slaves and waved gently to his men.

At the urging of the fat merchant's magician, the group of goods bound by shackles stood up one by one, looking at Lu Yu as if welcoming inspection.

Some people have some hope in their eyes, as if they think that no matter where they go, it is better than staying here.

And some people are no different from the goods that Lu Yu saw before, which attracted attention in the cage and attracted customers for slave traders.

There is no light in their eyes.

Lu Yu does not think that he is a savior, and he has no intention of being a savior, but...

When you have a chance to return someone from the abyss to the sun, you should always want to give this opportunity to the one with the most rebellious spirit.

At least he was resisting, he was protesting against this fate with his actions.

If you surrender, you will be as numb as others...

Just want a body, Lu Yu can find more.

Lu Yu's eyes swept back and forth among the slaves, looking for the one he wanted.

"Oberto, you should take back your defective products. If you sell this kind of mixed-blooded inferior product to customers, aren't you afraid that the big shots will take away your business sign?"

Lu Yu was distressed, and there seemed to be some small episodes near the "shelf" at the other end.

An old man in a red robe, who seemed to be the manager of this slave market, gave a lecture to the tall and thin man named Oberto.

Behind the old man, a man with long silver hair was held by two guards on his left and right arms and dragged to the side of Oberto's stall.

Oberto looked embarrassed and explained hurriedly: "This... disturbed the important people, how can this be explained?"

"Your sub-dragon just lost control of the 'dragonization'. If she was not weak, the Count's... um... distinguished guest's entourage would have died at her hands."

"Don't sell this uncontrollable monster. Even if you want to sell it, don't hide the information. If something goes wrong, you and I will be held accountable!"

"Oberto sold goods without strict inspection, and he will be punished once." The old man announced loudly to the surroundings.

After that, he stayed where he was and talked to Oberto for a while before leading the guards away.

Looking at Oberto, who looked like he had lost his parents, and the details of Oberto waving his hand to let his followers come forward, it is not difficult to see that he suffered a great loss.

After the old man left, Lulutis reminded Lu Yu: "The old man just now was a third-level magician, and he should be the highest-level magician here today."

Lu Yu's focus was not on the old magician.

"Asian dragon man, a hybrid with dragon blood?"

Lu Yu had not seen many bizarre and strange things in this world. He thought that it would take a long time before he could see creatures like dragons. Unexpectedly, he had the opportunity to see Asian dragons here today.

Not only Lu Yu, but also the guests next to him gathered around Oberto.

They didn't want to buy this Asian dragon man, but simply wanted to see what this guy who would lose control looked like.

When he got closer, Lu Yu realized that this Asian dragon was a girl.

Lu Yu couldn't use the knowledge he learned from Lulutis today to judge the blood ratio of this Asian dragon.

She had sharp reddish-brown horns on her head, and her skin looked like rose brown at first glance, but it also seemed to be mixed with some light gray, and the overall look had a strange beauty.

This beauty should be related to her bloodline.

Her well-proportioned figure made her lying on the ground gasping for breath very attractive.

Someone was brave enough to step forward and push aside her messy hair to appreciate her appearance, but was blocked by the irritated Oberto.

Oberto said to the people around him: "Since the manager said that this cargo is dangerous, I can only lock her up again and destroy it later."

"If you want to buy other goods, please tell my servants. Today's shopping expenses will be reduced as compensation for this episode."

After speaking, the magic power in Oberto's hand surged, and he restrained the struggling Asian dragon man, dragged her by her silver-white hair, and dragged her to the back of the shelf made of cages.

Lu Yu thought for a while and chose to follow him.

"Since you want to die so much, I will fulfill your wish."

"When the goods in the royal city are sold out, I will sell you to the garrison in the eastern border of the royal city and let you be bait to lure monsters."

"You like to bite people, so let you know what it feels like to be bitten."

"Puff."

The Asian dragon man spit out a large piece of flesh and skin from his mouth and threw it right on Oberto's face.

The missing bones and meat reappeared in the light of day, but his master probably didn't want to see it anymore.

The Asian dragon man did not smile at Oberto's embarrassment, but stared at him with vicious eyes.

Oberto's blood boiled, he took out the magic tool he carried with him, and under the surge of magic power, he was already planning to destroy this treasure that he had spent a lot of money to get back from another merchant.

He thought he could make a lot of money by reselling it, but he didn't expect that not only would he lose money, but he would also almost lose the qualification of the kingdom's slave market.

"Wait."

Oberto's hand froze in mid-air, maintaining a weird 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 after I look at the goods and feel that they are not suitable."
