Chapter 10: Knight slave

In the martial arts court, dozens of men in simple leather armor were playing against each other with wooden sticks. These people are divided into two groups, a group of slightly more people, about thirty people, the middle command is a middle-aged man with a beard and long hair shawl. The other group of people is only about 17 or 18, headed by a tall young man with black curly hair. This young man's face is as tough as a statue, especially the tall brow bone and the protruding jaw give an unusually firm feeling. And from his arm and the gap between the leather armor, many scars, large and small, could be seen, which added a bit of blood to him.
The young people stood in front of a group of people in their own side, screaming at the password while fighting each other with sticks. Although they have a small number of people on one side, they cooperate well, but a small phalanx of more than ten people can easily resist the slightly messy siege of the people around them.
The middle-aged man shouted and lifted his stick to the young man. The stick was heavily engulfed and brought a burst of wind. However, the young people pushed forward with both sticks in their hands, and firmly caught the blow.
"Roger, your strength has indeed begun to recover." The middle-aged man said with a few unheard voices as he met the young man named Roger.
Roger's narrow and long eyes suddenly opened, "You too? Is this morning ..."
"Yes, it must be! I knew the priest's medicine, there was a problem." The middle-aged man lifted the stick and struck a few times, and the stick came back together again, pressing his voice, "No matter what they want to do, go on again In two hours, this ghost place could n’t trap me. Let ’s go together?

Roger shook his head without hesitation: "I will not leave alone, I must bring my brothers." As he pushed the stick forward, the middle-aged man stepped back half a step.
"Your mother-in-law's fellow." The middle-aged man attacked again, swaying Roger's stick, and chasing after pushing Roger out of the team. He glanced around, and the other slaves and guards were some distance away from them. , Only said: "Listen, I have a plan. When the fighting is restored, the two of us will disperse the guards here, let everyone out, and then break through the Zhaimen with the fastest speed. After the city is out, the two of us Walk together, the target is small, the speed is fast, and you are not afraid of chasing soldiers. As for the others, let them each take their fate. "
"Ralph, if I would leave my team, it would not be here at all. I must bring each of them!" Roger insisted.
"Asshole, those people have no grudge, they will only slow down our speed!" Ralph looked anxious, almost not suppressing his voice.
"Do you think your brother is going slow?" Roger asked back.
"You ..., brother, a ghost!" Ralph scolded, swinging his stick and smashing it Roger's stick.
"Okay, just keep your strength. Anyway, you have to kill the camp first." Roger said calmly.
Ralph still wanted to argue, but at this time, the door of the training ground opened, and Cohen Manager walked in with a few people.
Roger and Ralph turned their heads, and their faces changed, only to see that a man and a woman behind Cohen were wearing magician robes, and a tall female warrior was carrying a two-handed sword and accompanied them. .
"Magician?" Roger looked grim. No magician was easy to deal with. These people looked weak and couldn't help but actually had many strange ways. At this time there are two magicians, which is really troublesome.
"It's not just the magician." Ralph sullen his face, clenched his stick, and stared at the female warrior. "I didn't expect her to come. Roger, the woman with the sword, is a big trouble."
"You have hatred?"
"Hey, if you can find a chance to kill her, I will listen to you for everything."
These are all battle-hardened fighters, this is Xiao Chen's first impression. Although the people who are fighting are only practicing, they can also make people feel a sense of killing. Especially dark-haired youths and middle-aged men fighting together give a lot of pressure.
"These are our most elite slave warriors." Cohen introduced with pride. "Two of them even mastered the mid-level fighting spirit. This is a rare commodity in the entire slave market."
"Your grudge warriors are still closed in your village?" Luo Ling glanced at the surrounding walls, "It must have been used to prevent them from exerting their strength?"
"Miss Luo, you guessed it right. We regularly give them a secret medicine to prevent them from using grudge."
"But, after buying them? How to ensure that they do not betray their master?" Luo Ling asked.
Cohen smiled slightly, "If you buy a horse, you will definitely buy a horse that you can control, as do slaves. Since the two are powerful magicians, what are you worried about? I heard that many mages are There are secret ways of controlling people, and such fighters are naturally their favorite. "
Xiao Chen and Luo Ling glanced at each other, with a little helplessness in their eyes. Cohen seemed to understand their difficulties, and said: "Of course. Not every Master and Master is good at this kind of ability, and most nobles do not have this ability. However, they generally give enough benefits to these warriors. Years of service. After all, strength should be respected, even if the other party is a slave. "
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "What's the origin of the two leaders?"
"That middle-aged man is called Ralph, and he is good at using spears, and his riding is also very good. It is suitable for being the leader of slave cavalry. He is one of the best masters here. You only need 500 gold coins to get him." Cohen like Introduce the same product.

Xiao Chen looked at Ralph, only to find that the other party stopped and looked at Calanda beside him with strange eyes. Sure enough, Kalanda said with a sneer: "Cohen is in charge, why don't you introduce this man as an accumulated bandit?"
"This……"
"No need to hide, I joined the crusade organized by Earl Bellano in Sweet Potato Fort more than half a year ago, and killed several thieves. This Ralph was caught by my own hands. Unexpectedly, the Earl did not kill He. Do you dare to sell such a person? Are you not afraid of him against the master? "
Cohen shook his head: "The bandits, criminals, prisoners of war, slave warriors are indispensable to these guys who lick the blood. As long as they are disciplined, what can't be used? Ralph has been here for more than three months, never Something happened. "
He beckoned to the soldiers, they stopped fighting and came over to form a square team in front of Xiao Chen and others.
"Ralph. Should you remember Captain Kalanda?" Cohen patted Ralph's shoulder, like a monkey patting the shoulder of a lion.
Ralph grinned, looking like an old fritter, "Head Karanda, I have to thank you. If you had spared my life, I would have died on the mountain that day."
Karanda raised her eyebrows and said: "Let's come to be hypocritical, I know what you are. The villages and towns around the Sweet Potato Fort are not less harmed by you. You don't have to pretend to look like this."
"After I was arrested, I understood the truth. I ate with a knife and died under the knife. I was supposed to die that day, and now the day is earned. Hey, this is all thanks to you." Lal The husband said in a yin and yang, he looked at Xiao Chen again, did not salute, and said stubbornly, "Master Magician, do you need warriors? As long as you promise to exempt me from slavery after one year , My life will be sold to you. "
Kalanda shouted to Xiao Chen loudly, "I can't believe this man, sir. And what a year of service, this is nonsense! How can you buy a slave for only one year?"
Xiao Chen could see that Ralph Ming was arguing to disturb the Huang transaction. Although he did not know the reason, he would never hire such a scumbag. He nodded to Kalanda and asked Cohen again: "Do you allow slaves to bargain with buyers like this?"
"This ... these people are after all fighters with grudges. Wherever they are placed, they are considered strong. Let the buyer and they agree in advance, and they will save a lot of trouble ... However, the one-year statement is really too much! Cohen explained, but his heart was strange. It is said that serving the magician is the best opportunity for slaves. To serve the magician, the conditions are excellent, and it is not necessary to work hard. It may be more moist than being a thief. He snorted: "Ralph! What do you say? Who agrees with you for a year?"
Ralph shrugged and said, "With this Miss Karanda, one year has been my limit."
Cohen was annoyed, grabbed the whip on the guard's hand, and slammed Ralph's arm a few times. But Ralph looked up at the sky carelessly, as if the whip hadn't been drawn on him.
"Put him in a little black house and be hungry for a few days!" Cohen waved, and the two guards rushed up to take Ralph away.
"Don't listen to that stupid idiot, he will be taught immediately. Come and see this one." Cohen quickly launched the next product, the dark-haired youth Roger.
Roger can be described as a talent, selling a few grades better than Ralph, let everyone shine.
"Roger is a knight of the Purple Eagle Empire. Although the Purple Eagle Empire is our enemy, I still want to say that he is a noble knight. His team was in a battle because he was lost and surrounded by one. In the small ditch, I insisted on it for five days before finally being captured by Earl Bellano because he had no food. Earl Bellano spoke highly of him and wanted to conquer him. "Slave." Cohen was obviously more interested in Roger and introduced it very carefully: "Roger is good at commanding the team, and of course his personal martial arts are also very good."
"Since he is a nobleman, why no one paid him a ransom to take him back to China?" Luo Ling interjected and asked, she has heard a lot of things these days and she already has some understanding of the rules of the world.
"When he first arrived here a month ago, the steward of their family had come to pay the first ransom, but ... Roger used the money to ransom his 30 men and sent them and the steward back home . But I do n’t know why, but it ’s been more than a year since the housekeeper never came again.

I heard that Xiao Chen had paid some respects to Roger. If Cohen said it was true, Roger could afford the phrase "love soldiers like children".
"Roger Knight, if I need you to serve me, what conditions do you have?" Xiao Chen asked, leaving Cohen aside.
"As long as you buy and release my remaining brother, I am willing to serve you for ten years." Roger pointed to a dozen people behind him and replied.
"Adult, you can't do this. You can't be a slave."
"Sir, the ransom must have been on the road, please wait." His original men heard him say this, they all clamored and wanted to stop him from doing so.
"Roger, don't be impulsive." His lieutenant rushed up and grabbed his arm. "You have done enough, and my brothers can afford it."
"Yes, Master Magician, you buy me. We will work for you, please let him go."
"Shut up for me." Roger pushed away the adjutant and said to Xiao Chen, "As long as you agree to this condition, I will swear in honor of the Purple Eagle Empire Knight and treat you as my lord."
