The nobles present could guess that, for Baron Moni, the behavior of the girl named Jiexi was beyond provocation and insult, and simply trampled on his dignity. But Jiexi not only did not feel ashamed, she actually used it to
For fun.
With Baron Morny's character, he would take revenge soon. Perhaps these people would be besieged as soon as they walked out of the slave market. In Brett City, the city defense army had always turned a blind eye to Baron Morny's atrocities.
In the Continent of Thorns, if you want to know a person's combat power level, you must at least be able to use primary detection magic, and magicians have always been a noble profession. Although the nobles in Brett City are relatively noble, they can't afford mages.
, so they could not see the combat power level of Aranza and his party.
But after this auction, in the eyes of the nobles in Brett City, Aranza and his party were labeled as getting rich, showing off, and thinking they were one of a kind. There was no need to worry about their combat power. Some nobles had even sent people out to fight with Moni.
The baron approaches and wants a share of his later revenge.
Of course, most of the nobles chose to watch indifferently. Thor and the prairie elves, who will soon belong to Aranza's group, are the only confirmed fighting forces. However, the nobles do not think that the new slaves will consciously obey their masters and will not stab their masters when they are in danger.
That's right. The key is that they can't be sure whether the two-handed giant sword that Aranza is leaning next to at this time is a decoration, and the girl wearing the wolf head mask doesn't seem to be easy to mess with. So, instead of risking the unknown power, they can
It's better to stay still.
The auction ended with Baron Morny's angry departure.
Although the slave owner was trembling with joy, he did not forget to be cautious. He invited Aranza and his party to a side hall of the slave market specially used to entertain distinguished guests, leaving four soldiers to guard the door, where he and Aranza and his party were going to conduct the ceremony.
Final transaction, payment and transfer of slave.
As for Aranza and his party, if something unexpected happens after they leave the slave market, he will have no right to consult.
Fortunately, Jie Xi didn't take the picture falsely. She stretched out her hand and gently shook it on the old but clean and complete mahogany table, and a handful of gold coins fell from the space ring, and soon they piled up into a small mountain.
The slave owner's eyes were so wide open that he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. Not only the 20,000 gold coins that Jie Xi waved, but also the space ring on her hand was worth a fortune. At first, the slave owner thought that Jie Xi would use
Items worth twenty thousand gold coins were traded, but unexpectedly, a very spectacular waterfall of gold coins came out of the space ring!
You must know that the space ring has always been a symbol of power, and only some members of the royal family in a country hold it. The slave owner further confirmed his previous suspicion about the identity of Aranza and his party.
He even began to mourn for Baron Moni. Although Aranza had not shown much performance, everyone could see that he was the center of the group. So, as a follower, Jie Xi's identity is so unfathomable, so as a
Where is the master's Aranza? These people must be protected secretly by strong men, the slave owner secretly affirmed.
Later, the deserters Thor and the prairie elves were brought up and officially handed over to Aranza.
Jessie asked the slave owner to unshackle Thor and ask him to take his son to the side hall. They needed to reunite. The main meaning was that Jessie wanted Cyril to know that her pity was not enough to join their group.
.Subsequently, the slave owner diligently called his servants to prepare the meal, and then voluntarily retreated. He knew when to appear and when to leave.
"Wait, what's your name?" Jie Xi called him.
"Noble and beautiful Miss Jessie, I am honored to inform you of my humble name. My name is Kim Gates."
"Very well, step back."
Kim Gates was a little confused about the reason, but he still resigned honestly. Maybe he would be favored by these people in the future.
The group of people sat around the table, with Aranza in the middle, Jessi and Cyril on both sides. The prairie elf was held opposite Aranza from the beginning. Her shackles had been unlocked, but she showed no signs of escaping.
Intention, elves are a very strange race. Their arrogance makes them unyielding as slaves, and their arrogance makes them disdain to escape. So, at this time, the prairie elves sat there very conflicted, thinking about how to solve the problem.
Immediate trouble.
The maids had already laid out the embroidered tablecloth. Their previous job was just to deliver wine to the nobles who were bidding, and they had never hosted banquets, so their movements seemed a bit clumsy. Aranza didn't care, but Jessie frowned.
This small movement was quickly caught by the grassland elves. The elves like elegance, but they didn't expect this red-haired human girl to do it too.
Soon, the maids brought the food and arranged it. They paid special attention to the prairie elf who did not eat meat. They placed vegetarian dishes in front of her. They also poured wine for the four people present and bowed down.
Jiexi stood up and introduced their identities to the prairie elves, and asked her name, as if they were having a banquet for nobles to meet. Although the prairie elves were arrogant, Jiexi took the initiative to introduce herself first, and then asked her name. This was
In line with etiquette, the prairie elf also stood up and introduced herself as Dolores, who came from the Field of Hope in the northernmost part of the continent. This surprised Jiexi. From the Field of Hope to the human territory, one needs to go through the chaos of death.
She was very curious about how Dolores managed to travel such a long distance through the desert, but she couldn't ask in detail.
"Aranza," Jessie took a sip of red wine and put down the goblet, "Has your father ever subdued elves? How did he do it?"
Aranza was chewing the steak, and his movements could be said to be very indecent. Of course, compared to Cyril who pulled up the mask halfway and directly tore the steak into his mouth, his performance was not bad. Aranza thought for a while,
Then he replied: "No, but we can make friends."
"We will not surrender to anyone, even if we die." Dolores said firmly. They used the common language of the continent and there was no communication barrier. The current situation is indeed better than she imagined. When the prairie elf saw those
When she was a glossy noble, she once thought about her fate, that she might be tortured, and then the unsightly sight that she couldn't stand. But now she is sitting around the same table as an equal with the person who bought her.
Eating was something she had never thought about. Of course, these overtures were not enough to make the prairie elves surrender.
"Well, I don't intend to conquer you either," Aranza drank a glass of wine and smiled, "I'm forming a mercenary group, and I hope you can join."
Jie Xi added: "Of course, it's an equal relationship. There is no one who surrenders to the other between us."
"Mercenary group...?" Dolores frowned in surprise. She didn't expect that the other party bought her to form a mercenary group and was willing to have an equal relationship. This caught the prairie elf off guard, "I am indeed going out to practice and join.
The mercenary group is also a good choice, but I don’t know you well..."
She relented.
Elves are arrogant and kind. Although Jessie cannot guarantee that she is kind, the word equality is enough to impress Dolores. Jessie's big eyes curved brightly and she replied: "It takes time to understand each other.
, and we have just met, we will understand each other later. Of course, you can also reject us, but we saved you from the slave masters, and you owe us a favor."
The subsequent persuasion work became much easier. Since Dolores owed them a favor, with the arrogance of the elves, she would definitely work hard to repay the favor. As for whether she joined the mercenary group voluntarily or because she wanted to repay the favor.
The group was no longer important. In the end, Dolores, a seventh-level archer and prairie elf, became a member of Aranza's group. In order to show her sincerity and for the sake of her stomach, Dolores, who had been hungry for several days, put down her guard and ignored elegance.
He devoured the food in front of him, and finally stuck out his tongue playfully at Aranza who was laughing beside him.
The elves are like this. They are arrogant and kind. They are suddenly friendly to Aranza and his party. It is not fickle, but she has regarded them as friends in her heart. After all, they not only saved her, but also invited her to join the mercenary group. It was an invitation.
It wasn't forced, it moved her very much.
Of course, for Jie Xi, who values interests the most, she never does anything that is uncertain and loses money.
Aranza swallowed the last bite of beef and saw that everyone had eaten about the same, so he stood up. He was wearing a full-body platinum armor, enchanted with lightness and brute strength. Because the most critical breastplate was not available, he could only use
Leather armor was used instead, so the effect of the enchantment was not obvious. And the Jexi generosity that Aranza longed for recently was a two-handed giant sword. It seems that the reunion day of this armor will have to be postponed for some time.
Aranza moved her body and asked everyone to get up. Now that Dolores has agreed to join the mercenary group, it is time to solve the matter of Baron Moni Sparrow.
Aranza and Cyril were in the front, Thor, who had recovered from the joy of being reunited with his son, was in the middle. Dolores and Jessie took the little boy behind, and the group slowly walked towards the gate of the slave market.
