Just when Colin was confused, the crowd in front of him suddenly separated into a passage like dominoes passing from person to person.
At the end of the passage, a short and stocky man with thick hair was forcibly grabbing the wrist of another thin girl.
Colin frowned slightly and continued to walk forward.
The short and stocky man didn't notice anything strange around him. He smiled lewdly and whispered to the girl:
"Let me tell you the truth. There is nothing wrong with the bread made in your bakery. I deliberately wronged your mother."
The girl pursed her lips tightly, her eyes filled with anger, and tears fell down her cheeks to the ground.
"Did you know?...Your mother came here to apologize to me innocently...without even thinking about how I could let her go." The short and stocky man looked at the anger in the girl's eyes and smiled proudly.
He likes to see them angry and helpless at him. If her mother hadn't been too old, maybe he would have kept her to enjoy the blessings of everyone...
However, it's time to give her some false hope and get her.
Just like before, if you get tired of playing with her for a few months, sell her to make a fortune...
His tone changed.
"Of course, my goal has always been you, Renee, just promise me obediently, I will buy your sister back..."
At this time, he finally realized something was wrong in the girl's eyes.
He turned his head slightly, and when he saw Colin, his face instantly turned pale!
"grown ups!"
He quickly screamed in fear and knelt down.
Colin ignored him and walked forward on his own.
The stocky man saw Colin slowly walking past him and turning a blind eye, and he felt relieved in his heart.
Common people like them who are like weeds will die if they offend the wizard. No one will avenge them.
Seeing Colin gradually walking away, he turned to look at Renee beside him.
Perhaps he was frightened by Colin. When he looked at Renee, he felt a little violent in his heart. He raised his hand and wanted to slap her in the face!
The girl closed her eyes subconsciously, her eyelashes trembling with fear.
Phew!
But what fell on her face was not a slap.
But a handful of warm, smelly blood.
A metal arrow clanked and fell.
The stocky man's eyes dimmed instantly, his raised right hand gradually lowered, and then he fell heavily to the ground.
Colin withdrew his gaze, and the remaining witchcraft power fluctuations in his hands gradually dissipated.
He continued to walk forward, not taking the little things he did casually to heart.
Although he is not a good person.
But it's hard to be immune to such things.
Especially when the rights and wrongs of this matter are clear at a glance, and it is just a matter of effort for him.
In Blackstone City, the status of ordinary people and wizards is very different.
That short, stocky man obviously didn't have any background either from his dress or behavior or from the words of passers-by around him.
He didn't even need to explain to anyone, the guards would learn everything from the crowd of onlookers and then take the initiative to help him wash the floor.
After walking for a while, he suddenly frowned slightly and looked back.
The girl he rescued just now seems to be named... Renee?
She was far behind.
Seeing him turn around, Renee showed panic on her face and lowered her head subconsciously.
She didn't come after Colin.
It's just that they were going in the same direction.
Soon, Colin also noticed this, withdrew his gaze and continued to move forward.
After another while, he finally arrived at the slave market.
The slave market in front of us is said to be a market, but in fact it is just a street.
There were people standing on both sides of the street. At a glance, in addition to young and strong men, there were also young women. They all had collars around their necks, and they were all ordinary human beings.
Before coming here, Holt told him that if he wanted to buy slaves like half-elves or other alien species, he would have to wait until the biannual caravan arrived, or go to the largest slave trading market in the center of the city to try his luck.
Alien slaves are generally more expensive than humans, mainly because they generally have innate abilities in certain areas.
But most of the aliens who are reduced to slaves are usually not very talented.
Holt also gave an example.
On the second floor of the Great Ax Tavern, which only accepts wizards, there are some strange dancers in the center of the city, such as half-elves, shark girls, catwomen and so on.
However, the alien blood in their bodies is already very thin and can only bring about some slight changes at most, mostly in appearance.
For example, half-elf's pointed ears, Shark's fish scales, Catwoman's cat ears, etc.
Colin walked slowly along this street, his face calm, but his heart was somewhat depressed.
Anyone who sees someone exactly like themselves being sold as goods for the first time will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.
The slave traders on both sides of the street didn't think so. When they saw Colin's figure, their eyes lit up, and they suddenly felt that a big customer had arrived.
But they did not dare to shout and solicit at will, in case they would bump into the wizard.
So, as if they had already planned it, they raised their whips in unison and whipped them at the strong slave beside them.
This is to attract Colin's attention and at the same time show off the slave's strong body.
Snap-pop-pop.
For a while, the sound of snapping could be heard endlessly, mixed with a bit of painful groaning.
In addition, some slave traders directly pulled off the clothes of the female slaves around them, revealing that their bodies were obviously cleaner than other slaves.
Colin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I don’t know how these slaves were trained. Their expressions were very numb, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
The back of the long-haired male slave on the right front was gradually seeping with blood.
But he seemed to have no feeling at all, standing blankly, his eyes numb.
Although the female slaves were not whipped, their eyes were hollower than those of the male slaves, as if they had lost their vitality.
Colin had no intention of shopping anymore, so he randomly chose a store and walked there.

PS
in addition,
There have been more and more people lately, so there have been more comments.
I've read them all too, although I can't reply to them all.
But as long as it’s not mindless, personal attacks, or repeated screen swipes,
As long as it is a reasonable suggestion, I will humbly accept it!
