Deep in the lush forest, a young man wearing a white robe sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
The morning sun shines through the dense leaves and falls on the young man in white robe, making him look sacred.
Ye Chen opened his closed eyes, woke up from the state of cultivation, put the two top-quality spiritual stones in his hands into the space ring, stood up, took out a piece of roasted wolf meat from the space ring, and drank it with ginseng wine.
, as your own breakfast.
It had been three days since Ye Chen entered the forest. During these three days, Ye Chen had not been very lucky and was attacked by more than ten waves of monsters in a row.
However, the more than ten waves of monsters that Ye Chen encountered were even more unfortunate, because they had become the dead souls of Ye Chen's men, and their bodies had become Ye Chen's wealth.
Ye Chen, who was chewing wolf meat, suddenly heard the sound of fighting coming from not far away and speeding towards his direction. He quickly threw away the half-eaten wolf meat and put the ginseng wine into the space.
In the middle of the ring, his figure moved, climbed up a big tree, and was hidden among the dense leaves.
Soon, the sound of fierce fighting became clearer, and a group of blurry figures came into Ye Chen's field of vision.
Not far away, a group of black warriors brandished sharp steel knives and slashed at more than a dozen adventurers. One of them, a thin young man, raised his long sword to resist, and 'clicked' the thin young man's hand.
The long sword was cut off, and the sharp steel knife split it into two pieces. A large amount of blood and internal organs flowed from his body.
"Xiao Wu!"
More than a dozen fleeing adventurers let out angry howls, raised various weapons in their hands, and started a fierce confrontation with the black-clad warriors who were chasing them.
"Trash! Don't kill people! Don't kill people! It's all money!"
A sharp and mean voice sounded in the empty woods. A thin monkey-like young man wearing gorgeous clothes pointed his finger at the murderous black warrior with an angry face and cursed loudly.
Listening to the curse of the skinny monkey boy, the other black warriors no longer slashed the adventurer's vital points with the sharp steel knives in their hands, but instead slashed at the adventurer's arms and legs, trying to make him lose his fighting ability.
Capture him alive and make him a prisoner.
The strength of the black warriors was obviously much higher than that of the adventurers. In addition, the black warriors were outnumbered. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen adventurers were knocked to the ground by the black warriors. They lost their fighting power and became one by one.
captive.
Seeing that more than ten adventurers were all tied up, the skinny monkey-like boy, protected by a sturdy man, walked up to the adventurers and said loudly: "Congratulations on becoming my
Aji’s captives will be sold to the mines and become humble slaves!”
Hearing the words of the thin monkey boy, Ye Chen, who was hiding in the tree, almost laughed. He had never seen someone congratulate someone for becoming a prisoner!
He could see very clearly from the tree that there were more than thirty black-clad warriors, most of them were fifth- and sixth-level warriors, and the thin monkey boy was only a second-level warrior. In just a moment, he could defeat these black-clad warriors.
The samurai killed them, but he had no friendship with the captured adventurers and didn't want to meddle in their own business.
However, when he heard that the thin monkey boy planned to capture more than a dozen adventurers and sell them into slaves in the mines, his eyes lit up and he felt that this was an opportunity to sneak into the mines, so he deliberately made a movement in the tree.
"Who! Come out!"
Hearing the movement on the big tree above his head, the sturdy man guarding the skinny monkey boy immediately changed his face slightly, shouted angrily, clenched his right hand into a fist, and attacked the big tree where Ye Chen was.
boom!
The sturdy man's fist hit the big tree hard. The big tree, which was hugged by several people, shook violently. Countless leaves fell from the tree. Ye Chen also deliberately let out a scream.
The tree fell down.
"Catch him!"
Seeing Ye Chen fall from the tree, the skinny monkey boy shouted an order without any hesitation.
Seeing more than a dozen black-clothed warriors waving sharp steel knives towards him, Ye Chen immediately jumped up from the ground, waved his fists, met the more than a dozen black-clothed warriors, and entangled with them.
, and successfully brought several black-clothed warriors to the ground, showing extraordinary strength.
Seeing that more than a dozen warriors in black were unable to catch Ye Chen, the skinny monkey boy immediately realized that Ye Chen was a master, and waved his hand to let his personal bodyguards come on stage.
Seeing the strong man on the stage, a faint smile flashed across Ye Chen's lips, and he deliberately showed a flaw, allowing the strong man to knock him to the ground, let out a scream, and was tied up by several black warriors.
"Not bad! Not bad! It is estimated to be at the level of a sixth-level warrior and can be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins!"
As soon as Ye Chen was tied up, the thin monkey boy looked at Ye Chen with a smile and said loudly.
"let's go!"
After the thin monkey boy looked at Ye Chen for a while, he waved his hand and said to the black warriors.
"Little brother, your skills are good, but your acting skills are a bit poor. However, you can still deceive those losers!"
A tied up adventurer with a thin body and a wise light in his eyes walked up to Ye Chen and whispered.
Hearing the adventurer's words, Ye Chen's eyes flashed with cold light, and a hint of cold murderous aura was released from his body, shrouding the adventurer's body.
Feeling the murderous intention in Ye Chen's heart, the adventurer's heart skipped a beat and said quickly: "Little brother, don't worry, my name is Chen Ping. I will never expose your secret. I just hope that little brother will not let you know when he enters the mine."
After that, just take care of me."
Hearing the adventurer's words, Ye Chen put away the murderous intention in his heart, did not speak, and just nodded lightly.
Seeing that Ye Chen was reluctant to speak, Chen Ping, who had received a satisfactory reply, was also very sensible and kept silent. Under the supervision of a group of black warriors, Chen Ping walked towards the distance.
At noon, Ye Chen and his group walked out of the dense forest and entered a square in the center of a small town where tens of thousands of people lived.
"Master Aji, your harvest today is pretty good! I estimate you can earn hundreds of thousands of gold coins!"
An old man wearing a black robe casually looked at Ye Chen and others, and then said to the thin monkey boy with a smile on his face.
"That's right. Please take stock of it so I can go back and rest early!"
Hearing the words of the old man in black robe, the thin monkey boy showed a faint smile on his face.
Normally, it would be good to earn tens of thousands of gold coins a day. Today, I caught more than ten adventurers, and Ye Chen, a sixth-level warrior, can earn dozens of gold coins at once. It is much better than before. How can the skinny monkey boy do this?
Not excited but happy!
With the permission of the skinny monkey boy, the old man in black robe waved his hand, and a big man wearing a black tight-fitting combat uniform with a mining logo hanging on his chest walked out from behind him holding a magic instrument. After Ye Chen and others
He scanned his body and said: "One sixth-level warrior, five fifth-level warriors, five fourth-level warriors, one third-level warrior, and one second-level warrior, a total of 350,000 gold coins!"
Hearing the words of the big man in black, Ye Chen felt relieved, knowing that he had escaped a disaster and had not been tested as a seventh-level warrior. Otherwise, his performance in the forest would have been exposed.
"Master Aji, this is a bill for three hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!"
The old man in black robe took out a special piece of magic paper and a magic pen from his arms, wrote the number of three hundred and fifty thousand gold coins on it, and handed it to the thin monkey young man.
Slaves purchased by the mine, as long as they do not exceed one million gold coins, will be settled using this magical bill. The person selling the slave must go to an exchange point proposed by the mine to exchange for the full amount of gold coins.
"Brothers, let's go to Paradise Street, I'll treat you!"
The thin monkey boy took the magic ticket from the old man in black robe and said loudly to a group of black warriors behind him, causing a burst of cheers from the black warriors.
"Take them down!"
Following the instructions of the old man in black robe, Ye Chen and others were taken to a large iron cage by several mine guards and locked up.
In the evening, the old man in black robes led a team of mine guards and headed toward the mine dozens of miles away with more than a hundred soldiers of all levels purchased.
When they were still a few miles away from the mine, a mine guard riding on a griffon flew over from the distant sky and hovered above the heads of Ye Chen and others.
The arrival of the gryphon knights caused a commotion among the slaves. Shouts of exclamation resounded among the slaves. Pairs of pairs of people, with either fear, expectation, hatred or burning eyes, all surrendered to the gryphons in the sky.
The Griffin is a level six flying monster with strong maneuverability and assault capabilities. It can often scratch an enemy's head or tear off a large piece of flesh from the enemy's body with just one dive.
The Griffin Knights are one of the most important guard forces in the mine, responsible for patrolling the entire mine and carrying out bloody suppression of troublemakers, escapees, and intruders!
The old man in black robe who was responsible for escorting the slaves had long been used to the gryphon knights hovering in the sky. He only saw him take out a black token from his arms with a dull look on his face, held it up high and said:
"We are the team responsible for acquiring slaves!"
As soon as the black-robed old man finished speaking, the gryphon knight in the sky swooped down and passed over the heads of Ye Chen and others, leaving an afterimage that appeared in the distant sky.
Seeing that the gryphon knight disappeared, the old man in black robe gave an order, and the mine guards responsible for escorting the slaves raised their whips one after another, whipped them at the slaves who were still looking up at the sky, and yelled: "
Stop looking and leave quickly!"
Under the threat of the whips of the mine guards, more than a hundred slaves, led by the old man in black robes, successfully passed several checkpoints and arrived at a huge square. They were randomly assigned to rooms.
Chen Ping, who saw through Ye Chen's acting skills, was assigned to Ye Chen by coincidence.
