Chapter 38: The cruelty of the universe

Slave Market:

This area spans over three hundred kilometers, with each section being a slave trading zone. It's a bustling scene, with slaves of various races visible everywhere.

“Come and see! Iron men possess the strength of Apprentice Nine Realm. Buying them for housework or as cannon fodder is very cost-effective. Each one only costs 20 black dragon coins!”

“A stunning female of Planetary Level Eight. Buying her back can not only serve as a bodyguard, but also help you solve your worries. She can be taken home for only thirty thousand black dragon coins.”

“A new batch of Star Nine Realm slaves, 5 billion black dragon coins each. First come, first served. Don’t miss out!”

“..............”

When Li Xin and his companions stepped into the slave market, every place they walked past had various notice boards and the shouts of slave owners.

Watching those Astral Rank slaves who were stronger than themselves, and even entire races being captured and sold as slaves, was a long sight.

Whether it was Li Xin or Hong and his companions, their hearts were violently impacted.

They had already understood the cruelty of the Universe before, but witnessing it with their own eyes now, their hearts were still deeply shaken by this scene!

If Earth were discovered by slave traders, they dared not imagine what it would be like when all of humanity on Earth was treated as members of these slaves and sold.

“Whew, Big Brother, do you want to buy slaves?”

However, all three of them were individuals with firm wills, and they quickly adjusted their mindsets.

“Yes, I need to buy them. Although the mechanical puppet I make are strong, there are many times when mechanical puppet are inconvenient to appear. At that time, I can only let these slaves appear.”

Li Xin nodded and said, although he could create intelligent life like the Automaton Race, this was human territory, and he could not let intelligent life stand in the open to do things for him.

It is best to have humans in the open and intelligent life in the dark; the combination of the two is the best.

“Oh, sirs, the quality of our slaves here is the best. What level of slaves do you need?”

Seeing Li Xin and the others protected by many flowing silver guards, the slave merchant Feili immediately stepped forward enthusiastically to curry favor.

“Hmm? Your slaves here are indeed good. How much does he cost?”

Li Xin looked at the many slaves of this slave merchant and saw a unique slave.

Compared to the other slaves whose eyes were so dim that only despair remained, that slave's eyes still carried a certain light and had not completely succumbed to his slave status.

“Sir, that is a Laimeng Clan Star Nine Realm Psycher Master, only fifteen billion black dragon coins.”

“By the way, the Laimeng Clan's mental power talent is very good, so their clan is rich in Psycher Master. I also have other Laimeng Clan people here. If you like them, you can buy them all together.”

Seeing this, Feili immediately began to promote his slaves.

“How many Laimeng Clan people do you have in total? How much do they all add up to?”

Li Xin asked.

“Sir, there are ten Laimeng Clan Star Nine Realm Psycher Master, four Star Nine Realm Martial Artist, forty other Astral Rank, and one thousand two hundred and fifty Planetary Level.”

“All Astral Rank Laimeng Clan combined are two hundred and fifty billion black dragon coins. If you buy them all, I will give you all the Planetary Level Laimeng Clan slaves for free.”

Seeing this, Feili's eyes gleamed; he was about to encounter a big sale!

“I will pay at most two hundred million ganwu currency for all Laimeng Clan slaves. I will not buy them for one ganwu currency more.”

Li Xin said.

“No problem, deal!”

As soon as Feili heard Li Xin say he would use ganwu currency for the transaction, he agreed after calculating in his mind.

Although it was fifty billion black dragon coins less, if the ganwu currency were exchanged for black dragon coins on the black market, he might even make a profit.

After both parties reached an agreement, they exchanged money for goods. After buying the slaves, Li Xin and his companions left the place with the slaves.

Staying in the slave market, Li Xin always felt very uncomfortable, a kind of discomfort as if his eyes had been defiled.

“What is your name?”

After leaving the slave market, Li Xin only then asked the Laimeng Clan person whose eyes still held light.

“Master, my name is Alex Clarkson!”

Alex replied.

“Your name is too long. From now on, I'll call you Laimeng.”

“I see in your eyes that you haven't completely fallen into despair like other slaves. You still maintain a desire to live and a yearning for freedom.”

“I just appreciate people like you, so I not only bought you but also bought all of your clansmen back.”

“I only need you to work for me for one hundred years. As long as you don't make any mistakes within these hundred years, I will return freedom to all of you.”

“Even then, you can join my force. I will provide you with resources to make you stronger. If you are talented enough to become a strong person, you can even buy back your ancestral star from the slave traders.”

Although slaves are implanted with bio-chips and cannot disobey their masters, the effectiveness of slaves who actively and enthusiastically execute commands is completely different from those who passively execute commands.

Moreover, what Li Xin said was not a lie. After one hundred years, he would have grown up and would no longer need these slaves to serve him. There would be no harm in giving them their freedom.

“Thank you, sir. We, the Laimeng Clan, will never let you down!”

When Laimeng heard Li Xin say he would return their freedom after a hundred years, the glimmer in his eyes completely brightened.

They did not doubt that Li Xin was lying. For them, even if it was false, they were willing to believe it!

“Hmm, I believe I didn't misjudge you.”

Watching the spirits of these more than a thousand slaves completely revitalize, Li Xin couldn't help but nod.

Immediately after, Li Xin and his companions went to the Virtual Universe Corporation branch to open accounts and bought three hundred anonymous accounts and consciousness-sensing helmets.

“Second Brother, Third Brother, I will give each of you ten million ganwu currency, equip you with a Star Nine Realm Psycher Master and a Martial Artist slave, and two C8-level mechanical puppet as bodyguards.”

“After that, you will go to the Kunwu Empire and the Instant Empire, which are far from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, to register your nationality...........”

Immediately after, Li Xin arranged the itinerary for Hong and Thunder God.

Li Xin himself also needed to Cultivate. He would not go with Thunder God and the others for such matters; that would truly make him a nanny.

“Big Brother, don't worry, we will be careful.”

At the docking port, Li Xin gave a Black Dragon Mountain Spaceship to Hong and his companions, and he still had a Black Dragon Mountain Spaceship available.

At the same time, he also began to purchase a large amount of Materials to manufacture Universe spaceships, mechanical puppet, and technological weapons.

After all, for him, who possessed the Automaton Race Spaceship Clone, these were not difficult at all. This was a continuous source of income, and he naturally would not give up his advantage in earning money.

“Finally, I can go to the Virtual Universe and fight various opponents freely!”

After seeing off Hong and Thunder God, Li Xin spent one million ganwu currency on Qiu Long Star to rent a manor spanning tens of thousands of kilometers as a temporary residence, allowing the many slaves and the C9-level mechanical puppet guards led by Xuan Tie to protect his safety.

Although he could create mechanical puppet comparable to Universe Eight Realm, he did not want to sell them now. He could not yet protect such immense wealth.
