Chapter 214

I’m afraid only Lu Lin, who has been with Li Mi for a long time, can see some subtle fluctuations in his wooden face.

In order to reassure him, Lu Lin asked Si Li to help move it to the crystal jar as he did to the previous people.

But then, Lu Lin secretly winked at Si Li, who sighed and used witchcraft to put the undead soldier into a deep sleep as agreed at the beginning.

“Okay, what are you going to do now?” Si Li asked, “In his condition, there is no good meat on his body for you to help him recover.”

“Can’t you use necromancy to connect a piece of living meat to him and start from that?” Xiu Lin Si asked.

“It may work for the body, but even his brain has become undead,” Lu Lin said helplessly, “I dare not do anything to his brain.”

“What if you repair the body and keep the brain as it is?” Xiu Lin Si asked.

"It's possible to restore his body, but only temporarily," Lu Lin said, "The immortality of the brain will soon begin to spread until it spreads to the whole body."

"And I don't dare to transform him under any circumstances. I'm not sure whether the self-healing effect of this transformation will make his body regard his brain as a decayed part. I have no idea what will happen then."

"And, as you can see, restoring the immortal part to the body will lose a lot of body volume. It's a question whether he can still move normally at that time."

"You have to change your thinking," Si Li said helplessly, "Didn't you say before that people who are completely undead should not be able to become human again?"

"I don't know. In fact, I can think of some ways that may be useful," Lu Lin said helplessly, "but no one can be a guinea pig for me to experiment. I'm not sure whether these methods will be effective or whether there will be results that I can't control."

"Why don't we just go the route of undead transformation?" Xiulinsi said, "Becoming a lich is not bad?"

"It may be so for us. Liches may be more powerful, but," Lulin sighed, "he himself should not want this kind of future..."

"Well... Speaking of which, since the so-called 'rare beast' and 'hero' are actually the same thing, can we revive him by resummoning him?" Sili said, "But it seems that this is less reliable than other methods..."

"It's unreliable, and the Holy Church may not have left the summoning files of the Undead Army. Even if it is left, we may not know which one is him, so it is almost impossible to expect to resurrect by resummoning him," Lulin shook his head and said, "To be honest, I haven't figured out what to do..."

"It's really troublesome, otherwise let me eat it, I guarantee that he can live well as an undead creature there," the snow ferret lying on the shelf yawned.

"Stop it, doesn't that mean giving up treatment completely," Lulin rolled his eyes.

"That's right, but you also said that you actually have some ways to try, right?" Snow Ferret turned around, "Since you just lack experimental subjects, why not just find experimental subjects? There are so many people from other worlds, I don't believe that we can't choose a few who are worthy of being used as experimental subjects."

"This... well, I don't object," Lu Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

There are good and bad people in any group, and there may be saints or scum in any group.

At least according to Lu Lin's values, if the other party is a bastard hero, he can use the other party for experiments without scruples.

But, where can I find such a person in a short time?

"Alas," Lu Lin sighed, "Forget it, let's change the water regularly and let him stay like this for now. When I have a chance in the future, I will try to save him."

"Well, it seems that this is the only way," Xiu Linsi stood up, "Buy me some materials later, and I will make a maintenance warehouse for you, so that he can soak in it for a year or two without any problems, okay?"

"So generous?" Lu Lin was surprised.

"Hehe, today's class is very interesting, it can be regarded as tuition, so that's it, Teacher Lu, let's consider the get out of class over, can I go to bed?" Xiu Linsi asked with a smile.

Looking at this, she seems to be really happy.

"Of course, let's go to rest," Lu Lin smiled.

"I've been waiting for you to say this," Si Li said, yawned, and floated out of the window directly.

Xiu Linsi's room is on the first floor, and she said hello and went downstairs.

In the huge alchemy room, only Lu Lin Li Mi and the undead soldier soaking in the jar were left.

Looking at the poor man in front of him, Lu Lin sighed.

"Just take it as a long sleep. Sorry, I can't save you for the time being," Lu Lin said, picking up the dust cloth beside him, and covered the device with a violent wave.

The curtain gradually fell, temporarily blocking the sorrow.

Chapter 351 Small, small pattern

"Well? Are we leaving now?" Si Li asked while spreading raspberry jam on the bread.

"It's almost time, there's nothing to do here," Lu Lin shrugged, "The third elders are busy building a new city and have no time to take care of us, and the Tianri Sect will not let us in again."

"I don't mind anyway," Xiu Linsi continued, "By the way, how are those big guys?"

"They are practicing boxing with Tiezhu. They had never learned it before and didn't want to learn it. They were beaten up by Tiezhu and then by me. Now they are all obedient," Jack Zhengyi said, "However, these guys are far inferior to Tiezhu in terms of foundation, attitude, or talent. If they want to master the use of magic, it will probably take a long time."

"There is no rush. You have to practice slowly," Lu Lin shrugged, "Did they show anything about their companions?"

"Well, they were a little worried, so I took them to see their companions," Jack Zhengyi said, "Then, I told them as much as I could that their companions were in a more serious condition and might need more time to recover. They accepted this statement. Soon, I think, they may have also realized that this companion is actually somewhat different from them. "

"It's not surprising, this kind of living dead, this is the first time I have seen this kind of living dead in my life," Xiulinsi sighed, "The Holy Church is really good at making trouble..."

"So what should we do next, are we going back to Lanyelin?" Sili asked, "It seems that we haven't seen what our independent city-state looks like yet?"

"No hurry, there are only a few of us who can't do anything there," Lu Lin shook his head, "At least we have to bring some people who can work there."

"It's better to have some cheap and useful ones?" Sili smiled, "It seems that we have to go to Kenermier again? I said, you will always have a day to use the underground market over there."

"Slaves? Alas," Jack Zhengyi sighed.

"For the time being, we will definitely buy some slaves. This will make management easier. You know, there are not many honest and decent people in the Land of Chaos," Lu Lin said, "But in the future, these current slaves, as the first residents of a city, as long as they are willing to work hard, it shouldn't be difficult for them to have a shop and live a prosperous life."

"You mean, in our city, even slaves can live like ordinary people in the future?" Jack Zhengyi looked at Lu Lin with a little surprise.

Lu Lin looked at him with a little surprise.

This statement...

Can't it be to let these people get rid of their slave status?

It's no wonder that Lu Lin doesn't understand Jack Zhengyi's way of thinking. After all, the two are from different worlds, and their understanding of so-called slaves is also different.

Because of the existence of slave contracts, which are equivalent to slave ID cards plus magic shackles, once people in this world become slaves, most of them will only be slaves for their entire lives.

Their masters can completely control them. Even if their masters die, they will not be treated as human beings by the managers of any region because they have slave contracts attached to them. Most of the results of leaving their masters and acting outside are that they will eventually be captured by other gangs and slave traders.

As for whether there are people who have completely lifted their slave contracts and returned to the ranks of ordinary people, it must be admitted that there are some, but the number is very small.

Slave contracts, which are similar to engravings and curses, are much easier to apply than to remove.

For example, tattoos or branding marks, which are essentially things implanted into the skin or left by damaging the skin, are easy to apply but difficult to remove.

Most slave traders and people who control slaves only have the ability to attach a certain slave contract and drive the contract, and they are powerless to remove it.

Only people like wizards, magicians, or holy magicians above the intermediate level may be able to help people remove slave contracts.

In most areas, people with this ability basically belong to the middle and upper classes of society, so how can slaves afford to hire them?

Therefore, except for some lucky slaves who were bought as slaves by kind-hearted rich people or magicians, and who developed feelings for each other during their long-term relationship, other slaves had almost no chance to escape from their slave status.

Therefore, in the cognition of most people in the Land of Chaos, once a person becomes a slave, he or she will generally never be able to get rid of the status of a slave.

After living in this environment for a long time, people will gradually develop an inertial thinking that once they become slaves, they will lose their identity as human beings. Another cognitive change brought about by this thinking is that they will subconsciously no longer regard slaves as their own kind.

Even Jack Justice will subconsciously fall into this inertial thinking in this environment.

But Lu Lin does not have this so-called inertial thinking. In his cognition, people are people. People may be divided into good and evil, rich and poor, strong and weak, but there is no saying that being a slave is not a person. He understands the inevitability of slaves in this social structure, but the way of thinking determines that Lu Lin will not really regard slaves as creatures different from himself, but will only regard the so-called slavery as an extreme means of controlling labor under extraordinary circumstances.

Since it is an extreme measure under extraordinary circumstances, Lu Lin will definitely not use it all the time.

In his opinion, slavery is backward and crude. Since he wants to build a city, this backward system will be eliminated sooner or later.

As for the specific situation in the future...

It is easy to say when there are few people. If the scale of the city really grows slowly in the future, legislation will definitely be indispensable.

But this is a very troublesome matter. There are many things to consider, and all aspects must be taken into account. It must also conform to the simple cognition of the people in this world. Among them, propaganda methods are also indispensable. Thinking of these, Lu Lin will feel a headache.

The best way is to modify the existing laws of this world as a blueprint, and it is too big to rely on Lu Lin alone to handle this matter. It is best to have suitable helpers to help with the work, and in the future, corresponding institutions must be established to be responsible for execution and continuous revision and supplement of the clockwork.

In addition, the establishment of law enforcement forces and political centers is also indispensable.

Thinking of these things, Lu Lin felt a headache. If possible, he really didn't want to be the lord of this city.

But some things, if you get to that point, if you have no choice, you can only bite the bullet.

In short, it's too far to think about these now, just take one step at a time.

After letting Jack Zhengyi say hello to the third elder, Lu Lin and others packed up their luggage, drove the earth dragons, and returned to the direction of Ken Emiel.

The journey was quite smooth. Except for a few waves of small thieves who came to deliver gold coins, there were almost no accidents.

When Lu Lin and his companions were about to reach a location about one kilometer away from Ken'ermire, a severe stench caught their attention.

Lan Jie volunteered to go and check the situation, and when he came back, he brought a shocking news.

In a ravine next to the main road, there were hundreds of human corpses.

And these people...

It seemed that they were all residents of Ken'ermire City.

Chapter 352 Look at your methods. How can you be a brave man?

Lu Lin couldn't count how many times he had seen such a bloody scene in the chaotic land.

Three times?

Four times?

Forget it. In this world, Lu Lin will definitely not worry about seeing such a scene in the future.

"Is there something wrong with that city?" Xiulinsi stood on the highest observation tower of the large earth dragon and looked out, muttering, "Strange, how can this... well, it's really strange."

"It's quite strange, all the dead are ordinary people," said Sili, who was floating on the staff, "Is that what you want to say?"

"Not only that, not only are all the dead ordinary people, but the cause of death is also unknown," Xiulinsi said, "There are no obvious wounds on the body, not even blood, and the expressions are all very calm. Is it a plague? Or some kind of curse or toxin?"

"Do you want an autopsy?" Jack Zhengyi looked at Lu Lin.

"I'll go and take a look," Lu Lin said, putting on a crow mask, "You wait here for me first, don't get close, if it's some kind of plague, it will be troublesome."

After that, Lu Lin specifically told Li Mi to stay here first, and then went downstairs alone.

"Can you do it yourself? Can your set of things prevent plague and curse?" Sili asked in a hoarse voice.

"Okay, don't worry, these things are useless to me," Lu Lin waved his hand.

If Carlton's flames are not released by the End Scepter, their destructive power may not even be comparable to the most basic fireball spell, and they are completely harmless to living things, but they are natural enemies against things like plague curses.

With it, plus the basic protection of the crow mask, there should be no need to worry about infection.

What's more...

Lu Lin felt the little guy weighing in his hat. With this little guy, even if there are more evil things, he can probably deal with it.

Walking to the edge of the ravine, Lu Lin looked around and finally squatted in front of one of the corpses on the outermost edge.

It's not because this corpse is so special, but because he actually has an impression of this person.

If I remember correctly, this should be the waiter in a restaurant where he ate when he took Li Mi to play in the city before leaving Ken Emi.

When they were in the restaurant, the waiter's eyes were always scanning the two of them, sometimes on the cat behind Lu Lin's clothes, sometimes on Li Mi's legs, which made Lu Lin somewhat irritated, so he left some impression on him.

Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, when they met again, this guy had become a cold corpse.

"Strange, I remember he seemed to be a member of the Yanfeng Gang?" Lu Lin muttered.

"Strictly speaking, not," Snow Ferret got out of the hat and stood on Lu Lin's shoulder, "His brother is a thug of the Yanfeng Gang. He is just acting as a spy for the Yanfeng Gang in the tavern because of this relationship."

"So, is it closer to the family of the Yanfeng Gang members..." Lu Lin frowned slightly, "Why are you so familiar with them?"

"At that time, we were going to help the Yanfeng Gang deal with the other two factions. In order to achieve the best dramatic effect with the smallest action, the basic information must be clear," Snow Ferret grinned.

Lu Lin's mouth twitched.

You call this basic intelligence?

Although, that's true. If it didn't have this ability, it would be impossible to turn the other two gangs upside down in just a few days like it did.

"Do you know anyone here?" Lu Lin asked.

"Yes, or I know almost everyone," Snow Ferret put his hands on his waist and looked at the big pit beside him, curling his lips, "I think your gang friends are probably in big trouble."

"Huh? You mean the Yanfeng Gang?" Lu Lin frowned slightly, "What do you mean, everyone here is related to the Yanfeng Gang?"

"Almost all of them are the same as the guy in front of you, all of them are related to the Yanfeng Gang," said Snow Marten, "but there is not a single member of the gang itself. How should I put it? I actually thought of this method, but there are too many people to kill, the efficiency is too low, and you probably don't like it... Well, you should know what I mean, right?"

"I would rather I don't know," Lu Lin frowned, "Damn it, how can they do such a thing? Is there someone helping them?"

"Of course, the things I did to those two gangs before must have at least hurt them. How could they have the ability to make such a big fuss, and they still took the route of intimidation and terror," said Snow Marten, "Relying on those two factions of useless people, your gang friends can't stand it even if they fight with them."
