Chapter 533: The Beginning of a Slave Rebellion Sweeping Across the Southern Continent

The Livestock Street, two streets away from the Central Arena, is the largest meat and livestock trading market in Giant City, and also the largest slave market.

When Ji Xun came here, the slave market was crowded.

The simple shanties were the main buildings of the entire block, and the air was filled with a faint stench of feces and urine.

Ever since the return of the dead dragon Marodis from the underworld, triggering a war between the metal dragons and the color dragons, the slave market in the entire southern continent has suddenly become popular.

This "King of the Gladiators Challenge" is also a feast for slave owners.

The event attracted a large number of noble lords from all over the empire to watch the game, and they also needed to buy strong slaves to participate in the war.

This also added fuel to the slave business.

A large number of war slaves were transported to Giant City, and at this moment, the shanties on both sides of the Livestock Street were filled with slaves of various skin colors.

Male slaves only wore a piece of crotch cloth, and most female slaves were naked from the waist up, like livestock for sale for buyers to choose.

Extraordinary slaves wear slave collars, while ordinary slaves are locked with iron chains and hemp ropes.

Ji Xun walked on the street, and he could see nobles dressed in gorgeous clothes in groups of three or two. They covered their noses and disliked the bad smell of the slave market, while enthusiastically choosing slaves they liked.

There were also some buyers from ordinary wealthy families on the street. They came to choose laborers or servants to work on their farms.

Ordinary pure-blooded human slaves were the cheapest. A few gold coins could buy a good-looking female slave.

Male slaves who could do physical work were slightly more expensive.

Extraordinary slaves were expensive, and the higher the rank, the higher the price.

For example, the price of high-level slaves above level three started at tens of thousands of gold coins.

A war required the consumption of tens of thousands of slaves, which was also a pure competition of money consumption.

Therefore, the captives captured on the battlefield were high-quality war slaves.

This is also the most popular product recently.

"Boss, do you want to buy a few slaves? These girls are maids from the families of minor nobles in Ximas County. They are literate, familiar with aristocratic etiquette, and are of childbearing age. They are very suitable maids."

"These are apprentice knights from Elres. Oh, they are stronger than bulls. A few of them can do the work of an entire farm. Of course, they are also very good as guards."

"These are the Seres people, descendants of the ancient royal family. They are the best "breeding goods" and have a chance to give birth to high-purity dragon blood offspring."

"."

Ji Xun walked and looked along the way, and the slave traders were also enthusiastically promoting their goods.

The samples on display were all top-quality goods. The female slaves had good looks and figures, and the male slaves were strong and tall.

Ji Xun walked around the street and saw many new slaves who were obviously captured on the battlefield.

They were scarred, and there was still the pride and unwillingness of the knights in their eyes, which was completely different from the old slaves with numb eyes.

Ji Xun had inquired about the information. The "Blue Knight" Konabos, who was suspected to be the body of the Lord of War, was a Seresian, born with fighting blood, and the famous Grand Knight of the Blue Cross Legion. Later, because the lord to whom the legion was loyal was defeated and surrendered, all the people in the legion became war slaves.

It is said that the price offered by the Chamber of Commerce this time was that if he could win the championship of the King of the Gladiators, he and his old friends would be pardoned and regain their civilian status.

But in reality, his companions in the Blue Cross Legion had long been sold by slave traders for a good price and died tragically.

The seeds of revenge have been planted.

It just happened to match some fragmentary intelligence that Ji Xun had obtained in the black market before. It was said that someone was plotting to rob the Giant City.

In Ji Xun's eyes, the entire cause and effect line of this incident was complete.

It was planted a long time ago, and it was only gradually revealed today, a long time later.

Moreover, the Seresian people were the royal family of the Alterac civilization period more than 100,000 years ago. Now their former emperor, the dragon god Marodis, has returned. This is enough reason for the riot.

And whenever there is a riot, there must be intensified class contradictions.

In the cruel slavery of the southern continent, this contradiction has long been irreconcilable.

Especially those war slaves who are about to be sent to the battlefield, they all have a complex and extremely repressed emotion in their eyes.

Ji Xun's clown mask can allow him to keenly capture all kinds of negative emotions.

He just walked around the slave market and felt that strong negative emotion.

It's like the terrifying pressure accumulated before a volcanic eruption. Even before the eruption, people have already sensed the dangerous atmosphere of destroying the world.

However, because the war slaves have explosive collars on their necks, the tens of thousands of slaves in the slave market have not been able to cause trouble.

This contradiction is not only in the Giant Spirit City, but also in almost any city in the southern continent.

If someone can really untie the collars on the slaves' necks, and have a little weapon, it will inevitably cause a prairie fire.

As Ji Xun walked, he also deduced many scenes in his mind.

He saw a riot that had been planned for a long time and was really brewing.

Unknowingly, he had come to the alley behind the main street.

This is the "storage warehouse" of the slave traders, and the stench is even worse than the main street.

Ji Xun walked in and saw that the small warehouse was full of naked slaves.

The room was so crowded that the slaves only had enough space to sit down, and urine and feces were piled in the warehouse.

Ji Xun hid in the shadows, completely avoiding the sight of the patrol officers.

He walked to the slave warehouse of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, and soon he saw the dark-skinned David in a warehouse with a thousand people.

After finding the person, Ji Xun didn't act in a hurry.

He watched carefully.

The supervisor responsible for looking after the slaves was drunk alone in a room not far away. The rune keys that could unlock the collars of these warehouses were hung casually on his waist.

There is also a warehouse full of armors and weapons in the warehouse. This was originally armor prepared for patrol officers. As long as you break open the door, you can easily get those weapons and arm an elite team.

When Ji Xun saw this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

It's like someone has already written the script and is just waiting for the actors to appear.

Ji Xun knew that they were never the protagonists of this riot.

He is waiting.

Wait for the movement on the other side of the arena.

On the other side, there is the central duel field.

It was already evening when the gladiatorial competition ended today, and the city was replaced with dim lights that represented night.

In the prison, Gong Wu's outstanding performance in defeating the enemy with one move today not only did not bring him a new look from the slave master, but also added two thick iron chains to his body.

The servant who delivered the meal placed a large bucket of liquid food in front of him.

Gong Wu didn't take a second look.

This amount of food is impossible to meet the daily consumption of a seventh-level card master, but this is his food these days.

A gladiator who doesn't have enough to eat is likely to face death on the field.

Those guys have tried all they can to get themselves to surrender.

At the door, the steward's tone was getting impatient: "I'll give you one last chance, the game the day after tomorrow. If you agree to cooperate, the conditions I said before will remain the same."

Gong Wu listened with no expression on his face. He only counted silently in his mind and calculated the time.

Ji Xun came here before and talked about the issue of this gladiatorial competition.

Gong Wu also knew that no matter whether he agreed or not, the organizer would not let him win that game.

That "Blue Knight" Kornabus will definitely become the champion in an upset.

For the first time, Gong Wu also learned about the foreign god Monliod, the Lord of Military Disasters, and knew that his future opponent was the one chosen by God.

At this moment, the steward outside the iron gate said angrily: "Are you listening to me?!"

Originally, this guy thought he would get no response as usual, but unexpectedly, the old man suddenly stood up.

But not in response to him.

Gong Wu said to himself: "The time has come. I originally wanted to have a good fight with that guy on the field."

In this gladiatorial match, the only thing he looked forward to was the final.

It's a pity that there is no fairness in the game and it completely loses the interest.

In this case, let’s go have a fight now!

Just with this thought, Gong Wu's eyes flashed, and his whole body burned like a flame.

The steward outside the door was so frightened that he almost sat down on the ground. He pointed with wide eyes and said, "What are you doing!"

This kind of top-grade slave collar is specially made and has "forbidden magic runes" engraved on it. Except for competitions, permission will not be opened at all on weekdays.

Now Gong Wu suddenly became angry, which of course shocked the steward.

However, Gong Wu ignored the guy outside and casually untied the slave collar around his neck.

After the outburst, the restrained muscles all over his body became full in an instant.

With a fierce exertion, the iron chains binding his hands were broken with a "bounce" sound.

Then I heard "bang", "bang", "bang" and the sound of steel snapping.

Gong Wu got rid of his restraints and walked out of the prison step by step.

With every step he took, his momentum increased.

Walking to the iron gate, he raised his hand to gather energy and punched out suddenly.

"Bang!"

The punch force spurted out like a bursting embankment, and the twisted iron door flew dozens of meters away and was embedded in the opposite wall.

In the ashes that filled the sky, Gong Wu stepped out like a demon.

At this moment, the aura flowing out of him was already more terrifying than in the previous game.

The steward at the door was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, and his crotch was already wet unknowingly.

Gong Wu ignored it at all. After identifying the direction of the Qi, he walked straight towards cabin No. 7.

The guards who heard the commotion and rushed over wanted to stop him, but they only heard the muffled sound of the fists knocking on a mountain, and the guard team flew out in pieces.

Gong Wu had no intention of escaping, nor did he intend to argue with these little minions.

Not long after, he walked to cabin No. 7, which was one floor above, and walked to the iron bars of the prison.

In the prison, the man as strong as a lion also raised his head.

Seeing Gong Wu, he grinned.

Gong Wu flicked the slave collar key in his hand and said, "Come on! Let's have a fight!"

Hearing this, the blood in Digeos's body began to stir, and he smiled boldly: "Okay!"

Meeting such an opponent is a rare blessing for both parties.

Without any words, the momentum of the two strong men suddenly exploded to the extreme.

Outside the central arena, there were many people wandering around the square.

Suddenly, everyone seemed to feel two terrifying auras bursting out, and even the magical beasts within a radius of several miles were frightened and agitated.

No one knew what happened, but they seemed to hear the sounds of fierce fighting.

Suddenly, without warning, a corner of the central arena collapsed.

Two figures rushed out from the ruins and started fighting in the center of the arena.

The sudden change instantly attracted the attention of thousands of people around.

Most of these people came here for the King of Gladiators competition. Seeing this scene, instead of scattering in fright, everyone started pointing excitedly.

The black flame-like aura was so conspicuous that almost everyone recognized Gong Wu's identity immediately.

"Look, it's the Donghuang qigong master who defeated "Black Sword" Malikas with one move today! "

"This power is too exaggerated. Why do I feel stronger than in the afternoon? Also, who is it that forced that old man to fight so hard?"

"Hey, isn't that the "Blue Knight" Kornabus? Is this guy so strong? "

"My dear, I thought that the Donghuang qigong master had definitely won the title of 'King of Gladiators' this time, but I didn't expect that there was such a strong person among the gladiators. The fighting power of these two people, I’m afraid he is no longer weaker than an eighth-level powerhouse.”

"The favorites that were announced before are not on the same level as these two. Damn it. The dealer is preparing to upset the opponent! I'll give you a refund!"

"."

The battle has become extremely disruptive since it appeared in the public eye.

This is more intense than any game today.

Now everyone can see clearly,

In the afternoon when "Blue Knight" Kornabus defeated "Silver-Eyed Tyrannosaurus" Rhine, he obviously hid his strength.

And the scene where Gong Wu defeated the "Black Sword" Malikis with one move was another crushing game. It was amazing because of experience, but it was not exciting at all.

The essence is that the strength gap between the two players and other gladiators is too big.

But now, two strong men who really have the ability to win the championship start to fight, and it is really a close and fierce battle.

The strength of the fist transformed into form and flooded the sky.

The central arena made of huge stones collapsed in large areas under the terrifying attack of the two men.

Just the shock wave swept across the land for several miles, sending sand and rocks flying, and a feeling of shaking the mountains like an earthquake.

However, not only were the onlookers not deterred, but more and more people came to ask questions and gathered around to watch this amazing battle.

And the other side.

The dignitaries of the United Chamber of Commerce also immediately learned of the changes in the arena.

There have been incidents of gladiators escaping from prison in the past, but those guys would escape as quietly as possible when they escaped from prison.

But this time it was completely different.

Not only did the two guys in front of me not run away, but they started fighting?

The stewards of each chamber of commerce were shocked and at the same time they were also itching their teeth with hatred.

The originally planned final has now been staged ahead of schedule, which will cause the United Chamber of Commerce to suffer heavy losses!

They originally wanted to start a fight.

However, when I asked even the eighth-level guard commanders, all of them had very ugly expressions.

With the postures of the two people in front of me, how can an ordinary eighth-level person have the confidence to win on their own?

If you really want to stop it, even three or five eighth-level people may not be able to control the scene.

And even if the fight breaks out now, let alone whether the two gladiators can be controlled, if they can control it, the hope of harvesting leek money without an upset in the final has been lost.

In this way, under everyone's attention, the battle became more and more intense.

It was as if the entire Giant Spirit City had become a stage for the two of them, and countless people witnessed this legendary battle.

On the other side, Ji Xun and Qin Rushi had of course found a good position to observe.

A battle of this level is a rare reference for both of them.

Because they had anticipated it, both of them were very relaxed.

Qin Rushi's eyes reflected the fiercely intertwined figures of the two people in the sky, and saw more details than others. She said with emotion: "The Seres people already have the divine power of the Lord of War Disaster to protect their body, making them invulnerable; And with the luck blessing of [War Commander], he will never be defeated. I didn’t expect that Senior Gong Wu would not fall behind at all. The Mirror of the Martial Saint is really strong.”

Ji Xun listened and nodded in approval: "Yes. The old man's realm is really outrageous. Senior Griffith once told me that the holy realm that can only be touched by the ninth level, this old man has touched the peak of the seventh level. ”

He is worthy of being called the "No. 1 martial arts master in the world" in the Eastern Barren who has not encountered a martial arts wizard for thousands of years.

Back then, Gong Wu was able to comprehend the "divine power" by groping on his own without anyone's guidance or guidance from the classics.

This speaks volumes about talent.

Now that he has entered the holy realm, Ji Xun feels that it is reasonable.

Thinking of something, he smiled and said: "Perhaps it will be recorded in the history books for many years from now on that the slave riot in the Southern Continent that originated from the Giant Spirit City was triggered by a competition between two gladiators."

Qin Ru replied with a smile after hearing this: "Yes."

That feeling is very subtle

They have always read epic poems, and from those epic poems, they saw the names of legendary figures;

However, one day, I suddenly discovered that I had unknowingly become a character in the epic who could leave only a few words.

Especially in their realm.

This kind of perception becomes a kind of historical context, like the law of the world's operation.

The two watched the battle intently.

Suddenly, a fierce fight broke out two blocks away from the fighting arena.

Qin Rushi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Has it started?"

Ji Xun nodded: "Yeah."

Although it was not surprising, Qin Ru was still very curious when he didn't have time to ask in detail just now: "How did you do it?"

"Not me."

Ji Xun shook his head, his eyes gradually deepened, and said: "This duel only caused those guys to start the rebellion in advance. The Rainbow Chamber of Commerce is not even the mastermind. There are many war slaves of the Blue Cross Legion who have infiltrated into the city. They are the ones who The main force of the riot"

As soon as he finished speaking, like dominoes, fierce fighting sounds sounded from all directions in the city.

After saying that, Ji Xun also stood up and said with a smile: "Aunt Qin, let's go too. It's time to redeem our tickets."
