Sword and Magic and Taxi

Chapter 149: 4 months later

? In a flash, more than four months passed, and Zhao Mai stayed in the slave camp. Although it is not like a prison with a large number of guards and close surveillance, it is not too difficult to leave, but he did not leave. It was not the foul-smelling slave camp that trapped him, the big eyes of the Gaith people, or the eyeliner under the templars, but the world of slavery. Even if he left the construction site and entered the city, he would have nowhere to hide without any friends. There will be informants around him, trying to get a part of the reward from the arrest of fugitive slaves. Only by raising the strength first can it be possible to intimidate others and protect oneself.

Daily torture and suffering have become Zhao Mai's normal state, and it has also become his motivation to improve himself. Both the psychic powers and the induction of the natural force have made great progress. The depressive collar around his neck has less and less influence on him. Even without the isolation of the snake belt, he can still use some simple supernatural tricks.

As for physical fatigue, with the support of the natural force, it will not cause him much trouble. Every morning, he can greet the hard work of the day with a full state, and he does not need to be like other people to have reservations for the next day. Therefore, he has never missed the construction period, nor has he been beaten due to quality problems.

Others have no such luck. The person who originally shared the same room with him had already changed three rounds. Either he died, or because of punishment, he was sent to work in a more terrible iron mine, and it would be difficult to see the sun all his life. Strangely speaking, the sun of Atas always brings the heat of death, but it is still the wish of every Atas to embrace the sun, especially at the time of death.

During the period, he met Taixian several times on the construction site. In the first month, he only appeared once, but in the last month, he appeared as many as six or seven times. Zhao Mai consciously avoided Tai Xi'an's attention and never showed up next to him. Hearing rumors, Taixian was reinstated as an official and became a Templar warrior for construction projects. Zhao Mai knew in his heart that the Temple Tower had become a place of right and wrong, and there was not much time left for him.

He never dared to let his guard down. Unlike Glarion, he now has no friends around him, he is truly in danger, and a moment of relaxation may lead to death. Maybe he can really close his eyes and rest only when he is holding the grain reserves and when there is a small flower to help guard him.

Karak Witch King’s temple tower is getting higher and higher. Five of the seven floors have been completed, and the sixth floor is half completed. The seventh floor has nothing to do with spells, but decorations. From the top of the high tower, Zhao Mai can overlook the big arena next door. Every day there are small-scale gladiatorial fights or training, and blood stains the red sand every day. On two occasions, he saw Butcher and Ricas, plus a sturdy female fighter, the three of them cooperated against the twelve fighters on the opposite side.

The trio won the final victory with the death of the female fighter, winning sparse applause and bloodstained all over. Before the start of the Temple Tower Competition, there were no exciting games in the arena, and the number of spectators was also limited. It is said that this is to have more participants in the temple tower meeting.

These people did not know that they would become the sacrifices of the sacrifice, and the Karak Witch King would rely on the power of these sacrifices to transform himself into the Atath Dragon, and then covet the Dragon King's throne.

When the sixth floor is completed, the temple tower will be closed, and it will become impossible to find out the Witch King’s secret plan. Zhao Mai relied on the prophetic foresight, and he was probably the only person besides the Witch King who could clearly see the spell of "Altar of Atas" from beginning to end. Before the sixth floor was capped, Zhao Mai used this magic circle earlier than the Witch King to help him create a cultivation environment for natural force and psychic powers. In three days, this convenience will no longer exist. It is said that the Witch King himself will descend a part of his consciousness to the temple tower and cast a magical barrier to protect it, so no one dares to do anything more.

However, the saboteur should have appeared too? As early as two months ago, Zhao Mai deliberately released the news that the Temple Tower will greatly strengthen the power of the Witch King, and that Tyre’s rule will be more cruel. Perhaps more than half of the slaves will be “liberated” from the farmland and can be sent. Hard labor in iron ore is hard to predict. It is even possible that the actual number of slaves in Tyre is too much for the needs, and a considerable part of the number may have to be "cut down".

Believe that the eyeliner of the "masked alliance" among slaves should have heard the news. It was a group of fanatics who wanted to overthrow the rule of the Witch King and liberate slaves. They had wonderful ideals and a powerful intelligence system. However, both power and tactics were only inferior. Zhao Mai will not pin his hopes on other people, especially the Masked Alliance, but it is still possible to rely on them to make trouble.

Recently, the situation has indeed changed. The project that was obviously about to be completed suddenly flooded with a large number of slaves. According to these slaves, they were all pulled over by the templars while working for their original masters. Slave owners who dared to say "no" are now dead bones on the wasteland. It seems that Karak's patience is getting worse as the spell tower is about to be completed.

Except for the arena and the temple tower, Tyre lost the excitement of the past. Especially at night, there are fewer and fewer lights to light up, and many urban areas have even become dark dead areas. Even if Zhao Mai does not spread the news, the Masked Alliance should be alert at this time. Doesn't the Witch King want his rule anymore? What prompted him to do so? These two issues should prompt the Masked Alliance to think and give them enough reasons to destroy the temple tower.

Therefore, staying in the temple tower is meaningless. Zhao Mai ordered the snake belt to wrap around the suppression necklace, and then applied the spiritual force to the fingertips, twisting the lock of the collar. Only enough strength and clever mental force can unlock this thing. After a long period of exploration, Zhao Mai has found the pattern, but he has never planned to leave~www.NovelMTL.com~ I just heard a click. , The shackle that Taisian left him slowly slipped from his neck. In an instant, Zhao Mai's psychic powers suddenly exploded, cheering and jumping for joy, filling and occupying every nerve of the body. At the same time, the natural force contained in the body for a long time also broke through the blockade and got into the dried-up cells, glowing with vitality. Under the double ecstasy of body and mind, Zhao Mai almost stood unstable, shaking, closing his eyes, and breathing quickly.

After about half a minute, he gradually calmed down, and it felt good to be in full control of his body again. Squatting down, doing a few push-ups, standing up, and jumping, he is no different from himself in the mangrove forest. This body is lighter, more agile and more dangerous.

Zhao Mai looked down at the suppressed collar in his hand, smiled slightly, and hung it on his belt. He needs to find a good reason for his disappearance, and by the way resolve the grievances between him and several supervisors.

Using the force of nature, it will still take Zhao Mai a few months to completely get rid of the marks on his back-how can he go back to see his parents? The bulging Gaither, Zhao Mai knew he was alive and knew he was sleeping there. So Zhao Mai beckoned, let the reserve grain and Xiaohua quietly follow behind him, and then dived into the darkness together.
