"So, just rest in peace--" Hester's facial muscles twitched a few times, and finally, a smile slowly bloomed at the corners of his taut mouth. "brother." Thank you for your recommendation and monthly tickets to Lich Anxor, Dragon in the Shadow, Dongxiao Longjie, Salted Fish 2 and other classmates Chapter 16 I'm Dead "If I had known this earlier, I would have let those dark elves capture me..." As the spider elf slowly approached, Li Yin couldn't help but curse his bad luck in his heart. At least, ordinary dark elves would only sell him as a slave or use him as a servant, instead of eating him alive as food... He knew that the twisted monster before him was not from the same group as the dark elves that had been chasing him before. The spider elves turned into this twisted appearance because they angered the gods, and in the dark elf community with a strong religious atmosphere, there is no place for these guys who have lost the favor of the gods. They will be regarded as the most hateful scum and the most despicable scum, expelled from the dark elf city, and wander in the wilderness and outside the dark elf community for a long and sad life. "The flesh of a dead person is not tasty." Seeing the pale and slender upper body of the spider elf getting closer and closer, Li Yin suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly.
The spider elf was stunned, and a confused expression appeared on his sharp face under his messy white hair. "I... know," the spider elf said slowly. Her pronunciation was not coherent, and her voice was hoarse and sharp, like a machine that had been out of service for a long time. Perhaps because she had been away from the community for too long, her Elven language was even stiffer than Li Yin's. As she spoke, a cruel, hideous, and eager smile appeared on her pale face, "So... I will eat you alive." "No," Li Yin shuddered and corrected himself very seriously, "I mean--" "I am already dead." Maybe he wasn't completely dead, but it didn't make much difference. In short, he is someone that even the mind flayer, who loves the brains of living creatures, is unwilling to eat. However - with a whoosh, a sharp knife pierced through the spider web and stabbed into Li Yin's shoulder. Blood spurted out and there were wails of panic. The spider elf did not give Li Yin any room to explain. "Stupid human," she glared at Li Yin with her scarlet eyes, her pale face angrily grim, "Are you teasing me?" Swish—she raised her other hand and stabbed Li Yin's other shoulder with another scimitar. The severe pain made Li Yin pale, sweat dripped down his face, and he couldn't utter a word. The spider elf pulled out the first sharp knife it had stabbed, stuck out its tongue, and licked the scarlet blood on the blade. Li Yin was looking forward to seeing an unhappy look on her face, just like the Mind Flayer, maybe that way he would still have a chance of survival. But no, an expression of great excitement immediately appeared on her face. "Delicious, so delicious!" Her voice trembled, hoarse and dry, as if filled with some kind of impatient hunger. At this moment, Li Yin felt that she was more like a zombie than himself. After saying this, the spider elf used his other hand that was holding the hilt to exert force - but did not pull it out.
Li Yin immediately realized what she was going to do - the blade continued to move down, tearing his flesh and blood - the spider elf was going to cut off his entire arm and enjoy it! “No no no no no no!!!” Li Yin’s face was filled with panic and he screamed sadly. "Very good," the spider elf felt a sense of relief and joy as he saw his prey struggling in pain and fear. "Go ahead and yell, just like that, and yell louder." "Your howling," she added more strength to her hands, causing the prey's shrill scream to suddenly become louder, "is the most beautiful music to accompany the meal." The devilish whispers and smiles of the spider elf echoed in his ears, and the cold and sharp blade cut through his flesh and bones, going deeper and deeper into his body. The severe pain almost made Li Yin lose his mind, but his instinct for survival still drove him to struggle. But struggling was useless. He was firmly bound by the sticky and tough spider web, and his reluctant shaking and swaying did nothing but increase the pain caused by the blade in his body. He is inevitably heading towards death, and it is the most miserable and painful death! Crack—at this moment, something passed through the gap between the spider elf's arm and Li Yin's body, hitting the rock behind the two of them, making a sharp clanging sound. The spider elf froze in shock. Li Yin had almost lost all senses due to the severe pain, and did not notice anything unusual, still screaming and struggling. "Let it go, bitch." A woman's sharp and cold voice suddenly sounded at the other end of the cave. Natia lowered her arm that was originally raised to aim at the spider elf, and while speaking, she methodically reloaded the crossbow on her arm with arrows. The spider elf roared angrily, but did not rush forward immediately - because behind the dark elf woman, there were dozens of loaded crossbows emitting cold light, facing her coldly. "It's our prey, you can go away now." Natia ordered bluntly. The spider elf did not respond immediately. Her hands, which were holding the scimitar tightly, trembled slightly. After a while, she raised her face, with an expression that was both furious and ferocious, but also slightly timid. "My...my," she said, "I found it first." "We drove him here." Natia frowned. It seemed that the very act of communicating with the spider elf was an insult to her. "Hurst," she turned sideways and looked at her companion. The two were originally of equal rank, and Hester was very unhappy with her tone of command. But the dark elves have always been women superior to men, and he had no choice. He walked forward, raised two leather bags, swung his arms, and threw them hard at the spider elf. The spider elf took them, opened them and saw that one of them contained wine and the other contained dried meat. "Now," Hester said briskly, "you can choose to find a place where no one will disturb you and enjoy your wine and jerky quietly." "Or, you can choose to have us turn your blood into wine and dry your flesh into jerky." The spider elf hesitated for a long while, looking at the prey under him unwillingly. Then he tucked the two leather bags under his armpits, drew his two swords, turned his huge round belly, waved his eight slender limbs, turned around, and disappeared into the depths of the other end of the cave. Natia and Hester breathed a sigh of relief. Unless necessary, they did not want to go to war with the spider elves. Those filthy and dirty creatures not only suffered the goddess's wrath, but also gained a terrifying twisted power because of that wrath. Although they were sure to win, there would be casualties if a war broke out, and today's casualties were already enough.
The sound of crisp footsteps sounded behind my head. Completely bound by the spider web and almost completely losing his strength due to the severe pain, Li Yin had no way of turning his eyes to find out what was happening, although the voice of the voice kept echoing in his ears. A woman with silver hair and pointed ears came into his sight, with a cold and playful smile on her fair face. "Now, let's take a look at this guy who defeated the elite warriors of the dark elves. What kind of monster is this guy?" "Human." Before falling into coma, Li Yin heard her voice for the last time, unable to hide her disappointment. "Fuck!" Another man screamed in pain, "That bitch actually set a trap!" Chapter 17 Excellent Slave In the end, Rein became a prisoner of the dark elves. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself lying in a wooden prison cart, with shackles on his hands and feet. The chains of the shackles jingled as the cart jolted - it was that sound that woke him up from his dream. In front of him was a towering city. The main architectural style was similar to that of the surface elves, both of which were towering spire-shaped buildings, but they were more pointed and steep. Moreover, the towering buildings not only extended from the ground upwards, but also extended from the dome downwards - they were huge inverted stalactite buttons ￡qＵN：ba№∠wu＆～qi． ∧liuliu☆∏sansisier, and the dark elves transformed them into their own residences. In this interlaced and tightly twisted arrangement, the whole city looked gloomy and twisted. Nevère, the Veil of Night, Rein later learned that this was its name. After passing through the city gate, Li Yin quickly arrived at his first stop - the slave market. As the name suggests, this is the place where the slave trade in Nevvell City is concentrated. Li Yin originally thought that he was a hot commodity - after all, those dark elves and the slave traders of the Mithril Hunters had spent a lot of effort hunting him down. Moreover, objectively speaking, after such an amazing change had taken place in himself, he also acknowledged that he should be a rare commodity. So, in the first few days, he was worried and terrified about the terrible slavery and driving he would suffer. However, he miscalculated. This was already the fifteenth day that he had spent in the slave market. There was no sun or moon in the underground world, and Li Yin did not know how the dark elves kept time. This part was not included in his knowledge of the Underdark. However, after spending these days there, Li Yin discovered some signs: there seemed to be an artificial light source in their city. Li Yin could not directly observe the light source from his angle, but he could see the scattering and reflection caused by it in the air and on the dome. The light source would increase at a fixed frequency, then weaken until it completely disappeared. After a period of silence, it would appear again, over and over again. The time when it appeared and disappeared coincided with the time when the dark elves were active and resting. Later, Li Yin's "master" told him that the thing was called "Time Pillar". However, that was later. On his fifteenth day in the slave market, the light of the "hour pillar" had passed its peak for a while, that is, in the afternoon, but his "master" still hadn't appeared. "Fuck!" Ohunt, an old dark elf man and one of the slave trade commissioners of the Mithril Hunters, picked up a whip and lashed out in a vent of anger. Under his skilled manipulation, the whip whistle passed through the gap between the wooden fences at an extremely precise angle and hit an underground dwarf. The gray-skinned short creature immediately let out a scream. The sluggish business made these slave traders impatient, and beating people was common. Even this guy was considered good, the guys in the stalls next to him would playfully beat people for fun even if they had nothing to do. However, this guy didn't dare to hit Li Yin - since he was grabbed by Li Yin when he whipped him, and before he could react, he was dragged to the fence with the whip. That incident naturally made Li Yin suffer a severe beating, but it also made these slave traders realize that they had more suitable targets to vent their cruel and sadistic desires. "Come, take a look, take a look." Ohunt shouted at the top of his voice to attract business. Although he was whipping the smurf, the other finger was pointing at Rein. "Brand new human slaves, rare mutant human slaves." "Stronger than a minotaur, faster than a giant lizard!" "I defeated two ordinary soldiers and a captain-level elite warrior!" "If you are looking for combat slaves, you won't find a second product as good as this in the entire slave market of Nevre!" Li Yin leaned against the wall of the cage and rolled his eyes.
They cleverly used the word "knock down" instead of "kill". After listening in the market these days, Li Yin already knew that a slave who had killed three dark elves would be a deterrent for most dark elves. But it was too late. There were many people hunting me that day, and I didn't know who leaked the news. In short, basically everyone who wanted to buy me would bring up their "achievements" during the bargaining, trying to lower the price to a range that the slave traders could not accept. This is also why, there are many people inquiring about me these days, but the transaction has never been completed. "Number 18, hey!" After shouting, Ouhunt faced Li Yin. Number 18 is Li Yin’s number. "Get up," he shouted, throwing in an iron rod as thick as a thumb, "Perform!" The performance he was talking about was for Li Yin to show off his strength advantage by bending and straightening the iron rod to attract the buying desire of passers-by. However, Li Yin rolled his eyes and let the iron rod hit his side without moving. Normally, the punishment for not cooperating is a beating and no dinner. But Ouhunt didn't dare to be beaten, and as for dinner... Li Yin discovered that after his body was transformed into a ghoul, he also acquired another mysterious characteristic of the ghoul: anatomical research results show that although ghouls eat like crazy, their bodies do not actually need to take in extra nutrients or food. Even if they do not eat for a long time, their physical condition will not deteriorate. A ghoul can be buried in the ground for thousands of years, without eating a piece of meat or a drop of blood, but when it breaks out of the ground, it can still attack the unfortunate victim with the same strength and speed. In other words, the so-called "hunger" of the ghoul is actually not a physical need, but a purely spiritual dilemma. The strange thing is that not only ghouls, but almost all undead creatures face the same dilemma. They all crave the flesh and blood of living creatures, but they can also lie dormant in ancient tombs deep in the mountains for thousands of years without any harm. This phenomenon has long been troubling... Anyway, Li Yin found that food was not a rigid need for him. Of course, his stomach would still feel hungry because it was empty, but that was all. In the first few days after he arrived, because of Li Yin's disobedience, the slave traders decided to fast as a punishment for him. But after several days of fasting, they did not find any signs of compromise from the other side. They were also panicking. After all, fasting was just a means of punishment. Their ultimate goal was to sell the slaves instead of starving them to death. Especially for the slaves that the entire team had spent a lot of effort to capture, if they were starved to death, they would probably be in big trouble. Chapter 18 Treacherous Humans So in the end, the slave traders were forced to give up this ineffective punishment method. It is worth mentioning that during the whole fasting process, in order to avoid being noticed by others about his strange physical condition and thus causing trouble, Li Yin had to suppress the urge to rush over and strangle them to death, and deliberately pretended to be hungry and weak but unwilling to surrender... The slave traders in the nearby stalls laughed; this was not the first time they had seen this scene. "Perhaps you should throw in a sword, Ohunt," one of them quipped, "instead of insulting our 'warriors' with a stick." Ou Hunt looked at the laughing crowd around him and became furious. There is malice hidden in the jokes of these colleagues. They were mocking the fact that this was a slave who had killed a dark elf. They believed that this slave would never be sold, at least, not at a price that was far from what it should be. "150 gold coins." At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side. Ohunte turned around and recognized the man. It was Dimon, the third son of the Conscrete family. Conscrete was the seventeenth family of Nevre, a family that ranked quite high, and this young man was a direct blood relative of the family matriarch and a noble. "150 gold coins," Di Zhongzhuan said, pointing at Li Yin's cage, "I want this slave." Li Yin, who was sitting lazily on the ground, heard the voice and cast a surprised look over. "Sir," O'Hent bowed slightly and used the honorific title, "but——" "I know," Dimon interrupted him impatiently, "Your price is 600 gold coins." “Since you——” Ouhunt looked embarrassed.
From 600 gold coins to 150 gold coins, what a joke, a % discount and another % discount? Are they treating him like a pig? "This price is already considered high," Dimon interrupted again impatiently, then rubbed his index finger and thumb together and asked casually, "Has anyone offered a higher price before?" "Of course," Ouhunt said calmly, as if he could not be questioned. Damn it, he was cursing in his heart, this kid knows the market.
