Slaves are relatively special existences in the Linghua tribe.
After conquering other tribes, there will occasionally be a handful of diehards who refuse to surrender even if they are pushed to the totem pole.
Without exception, these people will be demoted as slaves and sent to plantations to do hard manual labor to squeeze out the last bit of value.
besides.
Some tribesmen who made serious mistakes would also be demoted as slaves.
In any Linghua tribe, slaves have the least status.
They had to perform extremely heavy labor every day, but received only meager rations.
However, the Linghua tribe has always attached great importance to population, so it will not easily increase slaves unless necessary.
After annexing many tribes, the Hailin tribe also had many more slaves.
The vast majority of slaves were sent to work on major plantations and fisheries.
Lin Ze has never cared much about this aspect, leaving full responsibility to Wo Wu.
According to common sense, things related to slaves, the lowest level of the tribe, do not need to alarm Lin Ze at all.
Why would Wowu report to him about slaves out of character?
Confused, Lin Ze asked curiously:
"What special slave?"
Wo Wu quickly replied:
"The other party claimed to be from the Earth Spirit Tribe and came from an overseas island called Scorpion Island. Because of a storm that caused the fleet to capsize, he ended up on Giant Whale Island and was captured by the Dawn Tribe and became a slave!"
People from overseas islands?
Lin Ze's eyes moved.
Since arriving at Giant Whale Island, he has been thinking about whether there are other islands in the nearby waters?
He wanted to investigate, but because the Giant Whale Island had not yet been unified and could not take action, Lin Ze did not take action.
Now that he finally conquered the entire Giant Whale Island, he was still thinking a few days ago whether he should take the time to explore the surrounding sea areas.
Unexpectedly, before taking action, a Linghua man from another island was discovered!
etc!
Lin Ze reacted suddenly, raised his eyebrows and said:
"That man said he is from the Earth Spirit Clan? What race is this?"
When Wu Wu heard this, he showed a strange expression and replied hesitantly:
"Back to the controller, according to the records of our tribe, the Earth Spirit Tribe is a higher race among the Linghua people. They generally have better qualifications than ordinary Linghua people. It is said that the probability of a king-level strongman appearing is much higher than that of ordinary Linghua people like us.
Linghua people!”
"Because of this, the leaders of many tribes and warrior leaders have always been from the Earth Spirit tribe!"
"But since I can remember, there has never been an Earth Spirit tribe on Giant Whale Island, so my understanding of them is limited to the records in some ancient books within the tribe."
A higher race...
Lin Ze's eyes flickered slightly.
Sounds like a noble among the Linghua people.
If this is the case, the location of Giant Whale Island may be very remote in this world.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be even one Linghua person from the Earth Spirit Clan.
"Since it is a rare earth spirit tribe, let's go and have a look."
Lin Ze narrowed his eyes and said.
"Maybe we can get some valuable information from that person."
Wu Wu naturally had no objection to the decision made by the controller and immediately led Lin Ze outside.
It didn't take long.
Lin Ze arrived at the plantation where the Earth Spirit slave was.
The manager of the plantation had already led a group of people to kneel outside. When they saw Lin Ze arriving, they immediately lowered their heads and prayed loudly for the name of the person in charge.
After waiting for them to finish praying, Lin Ze asked casually:
"Where are the people?"
"The villain arranged for him to wait in a wooden house."
"Lead the way."
"Yes, the great controller!"
Under the guidance of the manager, Lin Ze and Wo Wu soon arrived outside a simple wooden house.
Thirty to forty meters away, Lin Ze heard a sharp shouting voice coming from the wooden house.
"You damn green spirit bastards, I am a noble Earth Spirit tribe, but you dare to lock me up and treat me as a lowly slave! This is a provocation to all the noble Earth Spirit tribe! When I return to the tribe,
I will definitely lead the army back to destroy you!"
"..."
Lin Ze was still wondering before. Logically speaking, an Earthling tribe with a high status among the Linghua people, even a stranger from outside the island, should not be reduced to the status of a slave.
But now he finally understood.
It is indeed a good way to teach a guy a lesson by demoting him to a slave who thinks he has noble blood, constantly belittles, scolds, and speaks arrogant words.
Pouting his lips, Lin Ze opened the door and walked in.
In the slightly cramped wooden house, a fat man from Linghua was sitting behind a wooden table. He slapped the wooden table hard while spitting and shouting loudly.
People in Linghua are generally short in stature, with most being only about 1.5 meters tall.
A very few particularly strong people can reach 1.6 meters.
However, the Linghua man in front of him is more than 1.7 meters tall. Coupled with his fat body, he can be called a Linghua giant!
On the way here, Lin Ze listened to Wo Wu telling a lot of information related to the Earth Spirit Tribe.
One of them is that the Earthlings are generally stronger than ordinary Linghua people, and it is very common for them to be over 1.7 meters tall.
There are many who are taller and stronger.
It seems that the fat Linghua man in front of him has many wounds due to long-term and high-intensity labor.
Even though he was still yelling and cursing in a high-spirited manner, he still couldn't hide the haggardness and fatigue in his eyes.
Lin Ze looked at the other person up and down, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.
According to Wo Wu, this Linghua man from the Earth Spirit Tribe lived as a slave in the Dawn Tribe for at least four months.
After more than four months of intense labor, he can still maintain such a plump figure.
How fat did this guy have to be before he became a slave?
The fat Linghua man quickly noticed the arrival of Lin Ze and others, stopped his venting movements, frowned and looked at the leader Lin Ze, looked at him condescendingly for a while, showed a proud look, raised his chin and said:
"Who are you? Ask Tabor to come see me!"
Tabor was the leader of the original Chenxi tribe.
Even after becoming a slave, the fat Linghua people still spoke in a condescending tone when referring to the dignified leader of the Chenxi Tribe.
I don't know whether I should say that he is stupid and doesn't know the difference between life and death, or that the pride of being a member of the Earth Spirit tribe is deeply engraved in his bones, even surpassing the fear of death.
But it is obvious that the Fat Linghua people do not know that the Chenxi tribe has been destroyed.
Lin Ze waved his hand and stopped Wo Wu and others who were angry because the fat Linghua man spoke rudely to him and wanted to teach him a lesson. Then he looked at the fat Linghua man intently and said calmly:
"The Chenxi Tribe has perished, and now the entire Giant Whale Island is the territory of our Hailin Tribe!"
The unexpected words made the obese Linghua stunned.
After a few seconds, he came back to his senses, looked at Lin Ze and frowned:
