Feld was tortured by the stench of the slave market, his nose was sore, those stingy merchants were vampires, refusing to spend a single copper to give the slaves a bath. Five or six slaves could only huddle in a small cage, eating, drinking and sleeping all settled in the cage.
There was no privacy, no dignity, not even the right to kill themselves because of their childhood education.
Placed in the cage outside, there was not even a single piece of rag on the unmarried girl slave's body, exposing two pieces of soft flesh in full view for passersby to watch, this was also a marketing tool, and it was also very successful, every day there would be old bachelors full of rotten teeth to appreciate it.
"My lord, want to buy slaves? A must for the farm, all good hardworking men."
"Rare elf slaves, only a thousand gold coins!"
"A new store is open, come and see, my lord!"
Fielder was dressed in decent black robes, carrying a steel longsword, with a clean-cut look, and was a wealthy lord at first glance. The slavers' eyes were glowing, they love to deal with nobles, for one thing, nobles have strong spending power, unlike those losers who come to have a good time and just look but not buy. Secondly, the nobles' consumption of slaves can be amazing, and within a few days, they become repeat customers.
In the eyes of the noble lords, slaves are not even as good as the hawks and dogs they raise, and they are killed at will.
Fields swept the iron cages where the slaves were kept, they did not even have a basic gleam in their eyes, they had a disheveled appearance, it was difficult to distinguish men and women just by virtue of their faces, and there were also hideous whip wounds on their bodies, and the occasional slave met Fields' eyes, and immediately lowered his head, trembling.
"How much?" According to the map, the green dot was among the group of slaves, and Field asked the price while searching.
"My lord, the price varies greatly between different races."
The merchant who looked as sharp as Kovu in Doraemon, rubbed his palms, "Goblins, Halflings and Piggies, all 10 silver coins, Subhumans 20 silver coins, Orcs 60 silver coins, and if you want to buy playthings, hey, there's no upper limit to the price of that."
The merchant badgered and pointed to the slaves locked in large cages inside the room, the most noticeable one was still the elf who called for a thousand.
Extremely beautiful looking, wearing a revealing veil that showed her snow white skin. But the eyes were lifeless, like a fool.
"This elf has been played by kobolds and has had at least twenty-six litters. Haha, but it's still a sought-after item. I'm going to send it to the auction house, it won't be a thousand gold coins to buy then, want to consider it?"
"I'm not interested in her." Green Dot wasn't her, and Feld didn't have so much money to buy a plaything, immediately shaking his head, "How much is a human slave?"
"Humans are smart and know how to obey better, male slaves cost 40 silver coins, women are 25 silver coins, but they are used for work, if you want to have some fun, I still recommend elves, even if you don't use them for fun, killing them for meat or making magic props, they are good choices."
Fielder had a chill, this world, the nobles are not the elegant and decent existence in the TV series, but the feudal and brutal villains.
Hearing that elf's flesh and blood can nourish yin and replenish yang, the proud elves immediately served it on the table, even if they were very similar to humans.
In the midst of the small talk, Feld found the location of the green dot, and his eyes moved to the iron cage in the corner, where a green dot floated to the top of the cage like a guide in a game.
It was a subhuman, and it was a white wolf subhuman with red pupils, and ears and tail like a wolf.
At this moment, dressed in rough hemp clothes, she was lying on her back in the cold and damp cage, not moving, only her eyes glancing at the key on the merchant's waist from time to time.
"A rare steppe species, our slave trappers took a lot of effort to break through their stronghold, those damn savages, their will to fight is very tenacious." The merchant told the brutal truth with a smug expression, "If you want to play with the wolf subhumans, you'd better bring a servant to assist, otherwise if you're not careful, they might bite off... Heh heh heh, it's only to be expected."
"Beast Ear Nymphs?"
Fielder was thrilled badly, as a veteran Blue Star otaku, he didn't have half a resistance to the red-pupiled Beast Ear Nymphs.
Like teasing a dog, Feld carefully poked his hand over and tried to pet her head.
"Hooooooo~"
"You'd better be careful." The butler, Kael, frowned.
A threatening low growl came from the beast-eared lady's throat, a dangerous light reflected in her scarlet eyes, and Knight Captain Connor was ready to draw his sword: "Lord Feld, it's best not to touch them, I don't want anything to go wrong before we go to the Nightshade Domain."
"There's no need to be so nervous, she's quite cute." That being said, Feld was a man who listened to advice, and immediately withdrew his hand, he saw bravado and frustration in the Beast Ear Nymph's eyes, adorable and pitiful, Feld straightened his lapel, "How much is it?"
"Just three gold coins!" The merchant saw Feld's desire and raised the price with his eyes closed.
One gold coin equaled one hundred silver coins, and one silver coin was one hundred copper coins.
Fielder grimaced, his eyes narrowing slightly, "Just now, I said that the subhuman only costs 20 silver coins, you want to tease a noble?"
"Oh, she's special, very good looking isn't she? Only captured a short time ago, guaranteed to be a virgin and hasn't been spied on by the dirty eyes of the pariahs. She's also an exhibit sent to the auction house, such superb looks, but sadly subhuman, an unclean creature! Otherwise for 300 gold coins I wouldn't have sold it."
"Fifty silver coins, don't challenge my patience." Fielder wrapped his hands around his chest, and in a tone of painting a big cake, he seduced, "I'm about to go up to my territory, and the playthings and slaves that I'm purchasing are by no means just her. To do business once, or countless times, I believe you know in your heart."
"Hiss~" those words tickled the desire within the merchant.
The merchant struggled a bit internally, befriending a solid noble with a territory was definitely a good idea, so he had to bite his teeth, "That depends on the amount you purchase."
The steward, on the other hand, glanced at Field suspiciously, in the past, Field wouldn't have cut the price and would only sympathize with the merchant's hardship.
Under Field's careful selection, 100 human slaves and 100 subhuman slaves were purchased, of which 120 were men.
Together with the beast-eared maiden that Feld had his eye on, it cost 53 gold coins.
"My lord, these are the soul contracts of the slaves, all verified by the Chosen of God."
"Contracts?" Fielder took the parchment with a string of names densely written on it.
"Yes, this is an oath made with the blood of the slave, and those who defy your will will be burned to ashes by divine fire." The merchant smiled lewdly and handed over the rope holding the slave, "So you can do whatever you want, have fun my dear customer."
"I will." Felder waved his hand, anyway, if he went to the cursed land and didn't have fun, he was mostly going to be killed by corruption.
