Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

"Shik, where are we going?"

"Are those soldiers carrying strange iron sticks going to execute us in a concentrated manner?"

"Will we be sold to mines in other cities? I heard that many miners in the Principality of Faros are also secretly buying slaves to replace miners."

Screw squatted down and tied the leather boots that were so worn out that they were exposed, and stood up and shook his head, "The direction is wrong. This is going north... towards the border between Barkley and St. Valen, not to Faros."

Although he is only in his early thirties, Hick is one of the slaves who have been in the valley mine for the longest time than the people who subconsciously surround him... because he was born in the valley mine. child.

The children of slaves are still slaves.

He subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed the uneven scar marks on his face. Although the scars burned by the soldering iron had already healed, as long as he touched them with his hands, he could always remember the unbearable burning pain.

I thought that in my life, I would be born in a mine and died in a mine, just like my parents who died early due to overwork, and finally be thrown into those bottomless mountain cracks...

Unexpectedly, a few days ago, a group of strange soldiers suddenly appeared outside the mine. They didn't even have armor assembled. They just used the metal iron rod in their hands that could release terrifying magic to send more than 100 guards and knights stationed in the mine. The army was defeated and left dozens of bloody corpses, and fled directly.

For the nobles, slaves are nothing more than private property that can breathe, and there is no essential difference between cattle, horses and livestock. In his short twenty years of life, Sick has also witnessed several internal conflicts between the nobles... ...The lords near the fiefdom have also sent troops to invade the mines. After stealing many silver ore ingots that have just been dug and melted, they are still not satisfied. They have also captured many young and strong slaves and sold them to other places in the Principality.

At present, these soldiers who defeated the mine guards and directly controlled the entire valley mine area should have come with the same purpose. Shik just didn't expect that the other party's appetite was so big that he not only transported away all the molten silver ingots, but also wanted to All slaves from the entire mining area were taken away.

Could it be that the famous Duke Carlo has completely fallen?

They were the first slaves to follow these soldiers to arrive in Lanjing City, but were not put on ropes and shackles and sent to the city to wait for sale. Instead, they were taken directly to the temporary garrison camp outside the city. One of them was dressed in a very basic appearance. The soldiers who could not see the identity rank began to speak loudly to them.

"We are the Northern Army from St. Valen, and are under the command of Lord Harvey, the Lord of the North Frontier, the Lord of Spark City... and are also under the command of Lord Harvey, the Duchy of St. Valen." The soldier held a brass metal trumpet while holding a brass metal trumpet. Pointing at the golden emblem hanging high on the flagpole, "We sent troops to Lanjing City this time to attack the crime of Duke Carlo's invasion of our borders some time ago. The mission has been completed and will be returning to Saint Valen..."

The soldiers held up the trumpet and tried their best to explain, but the slaves below were all confused. They didn't understand anything like the lords of the North, the crimes of strife, and these people could not even read and write. Among the lowest class of untouchables, only native slaves like Shik would have the chance to barely recognize the number... but it was basically to assist the miners and foremen to count the minerals and control the number of slaves.

Compared with the intrigue of the upper-class powerful people, they are more concerned about where they will be sold in the future and whether they will be miserable when they are treated as soldiers from neighboring countries venting their anger and executing them as military merits.

But what the soldier said next made Hick suddenly raise his head and widen his eyes.

"You don't have to worry too much. There will be two choices in front of you next... The first is to release you and send you back to the mine. Duke Carlo will definitely return to Lanjing City soon after we leave. There will naturally be a chance that the time will be The nobles sent troops to the mining area again, and you can continue to repeat your past work and life."

The soldier paused and increased his voice again and continued, "The second option is to follow us to return to St. Valen. The slave trade is strictly prohibited in our country. The moment he set foot on the territory of St. Valen, it means You will regain your free identity and no longer be cruelly enslaved or sold at will... The price is that you need to help us transport these supplies in the camp back to our country together. We will promise you your personal safety along the way, and All foods needed.”

After saying that, he raised his hand and waved his hand. A group of soldiers who had been guarding the side carried several huge stew pots over. Many slaves had noticed that dozens of fires were set up beside the camp. , the fresh food with wheat aroma is boiling in the stew pot.

"Next, those who are willing to walk with us can take the initiative to stand up and get a portion of porridge from the soldiers."

"We will not stop those who want to stay where we are... we can leave the camp immediately, and then we can go anywhere we want..."

Shik grinned and thought to himself, where else can he go as a slave? Once the face is marked with a mark representing the identity of a slave, you will never escape the established tragic fate anywhere unless you hide in the deep mountains and wilderness in this life.

A low buzzing discussion sounded in the crowd, and many people turned their eyes to Hick, as if waiting for him to make the first choice, which was also out of subconscious trust and dependence in him.

This conspicuous action also attracted the attention of the soldiers. A tall and strong soldier with an ugly face suddenly walked into the crowd, stood in front of Sick and said calmly, "Are you the leader of this group?"

Shik only felt that the other party was imposing, which made him more frightened than those foreman guards who pretended to be powerful. Cold sweat instantly soaked his back, and gritted his teeth and said tremblingly: "I just helped many people in the past, and they are willing to listen to my opinions more. ”

The beast-headed soldier nodded and asked bluntly: "Then how do you choose?"

Hick was silent for a while, and he mustered up the courage to ask, "How will we place us after helping you transport supplies to St. Valen...before these people work hard to mine, and... With the mark of slaves, even if you go to a neighboring country... you have no place to stay."

The beast-headed soldier chuckled and shook his head and explained, "Do you think we will turn against you and abandon you after we use you? I can promise now that if you are willing to follow us all the way back to the north of St. Valen and go to the Located on the wasteland, I promise that everyone will not only have a free identity, but also get a job that can support their lives. The elderly will be treated when they are sick, and the children will enjoy education when they grow up... You don’t have to live in a scattered place anymore. In the mine shed, you can only work to get comfortable and warm accommodation and food."

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Shik felt his mind buzzing, and he was stunned for a while before he spoke hard: "This... this cannot be true. Even the local nobles do not want to use such a clumsy lie to deceive us to work hard for them... ... "

Vaughan laughed out loud and said softly, "Yes, they only need to use swords and whips to make you obedient... To be honest, we can use the same method, there is no need to make up a lie in exchange for you. labor."

He looked at Shik with a bright look and said quietly, "Then are you willing to believe it? Are you willing to believe this clumsy lie you think? Why not take a gamble?"

Just treat it as the price that must be paid to obtain freedom.
