Chapter 66 -66 How is There Still Slave Trade
Fang Jie had never anticipated this situation; it seemed he had truly been lucky in the beginning.
On one hand, his location appeared to be desolate, making it difficult to encounter any major powers, and on the other hand, he had acquired a very powerful talent from the start.
It was only by doing business with others that he was able to amass such a formidable force.
Without that force, he wouldn’t have the developments he had achieved now.
Even with these developments, if Fang Jie dared to confront the major cities directly, he would definitely not survive.
During conversations, Fang Jie learned that some had encountered military forces above the bronze level, silver-level, and even gold-level units that operated as teams.
Currently, facing a gold-level unit, he didn’t know if his army could withstand the opponent.
In this world, personal strength seemed to be amplified to the extreme.
While Fang Jie was contemplating, a sudden vibration resonated outside.
Being near the door, he looked up and saw the source of the tremor was at the marketplace.
At the market, something resembling a space gate was opening, and a team was slowly walking out of it.
Their towering height of over two meters, along with their bovine heads, unmistakably identified them as Minotaurs.
However, these Minotaurs were all chained, and leading them was a red-skinned Little Demon.
Little Demon Merchant Level 3: Apprentice
“Is this what you bought?
Those Minotaurs?” Fang Jie widened his eyes, looking at the simple-faced, even somewhat despairing beings, not quite understanding.
“That’s right, I bought them.
Minotaurs inherently possess a talent for farming—I’m not sure what it has to do with cows, but they’re just right for helping with it,” Qin Lan came out nonchalantly.
Fang Jie was somewhat stunned; he seemed to have never paid attention to these matters before.
“But the problem is, this is slave trade, isn’t it?
Is that really okay?” Fang Jie was somewhat uneasy.
Qin Lan gave Fang Jie a strange look, stared at him, then suddenly laughed out loud.
“No way, a great Undead boss worried about the strange issue of slavery trade?
You’re not thinking about abolishing slavery, are you?” Qin Lan’s eyes flickered with tension.
Fang Jie waved his hand, “Of course not, it exists for a reason, and besides, I don’t have the power to fight against the whole world.”
Qin Lan breathed a sigh of relief, actually worried that their lord Fang Jie was some saint-like figure.
If that were the case, surviving long in this world would be utterly impossible.
Thankfully, Fang Jie was still very rational, knowing what he could and couldn’t do.
In fact, slavery existed in nearly every era, merely under a different name.
“If you don’t like this kind of thing, we can just avoid doing it ourselves in the future.”
Fang Jie shook his head, “No need, if necessary we still have to buy them, just as long as we ourselves don’t randomly capture and sell sentient beings like us.”
Implicitly, it meant that those unacknowledged beings could be sold without concern.
After all, Fang Jie was a human, naturally standing from a human perspective since his moral values were shaped in the human world.
Despite now controlling Undead, but can Undead even be considered live beings?
Undead could be said to be natural slaves, and even the best kind, though somewhat hard to accept.
“Moreover, if it’s a manufactured troop type, mind not quite there, don’t treat them as normal people.”
Those troop types, in Fang Jie’s view, were like cloned items.
Unless they could break their own limits and upgrade to a hero unit, they were just tools.
Qin Lan nodded lightly, fully understanding Fang Jie’s bottom line now.
She stepped forward, interacted with the merchant, and then had the Minotaurs taken to farm the land.
The reason for interaction was because these newly purchased Minotaurs needed a slave contract.
This contract had some magic power restrictions, though not very strong, it still required the person’s signature.
Actually, controlling a territory could be considered the strongest type of contractual restriction, yet even so, it included loyalty.
Conventional magic contracts, while useful, controlled through penalties.
So far, the Earth people in their area had yet to encounter more powerful controlling contracts.
“These materials, see if you can gather them,” Fang Jie mentioned the materials needed for his Alchemy Workshop.
Qin Lan immediately began checking outside, “These copper ingots and iron ingots, we have here, and metal parts too, but not enough.
Are you making an alchemy puppet?”
Fang Jie didn’t hide it, “Yes, I have a blueprint, and I want to give it a try; it’s a universal blueprint.”
This time Qin Lan did not think of opening up, as Fang Jie wouldn’t allow himself too much force in his hands, no need to provoke him.
At least for now, Qin Lan didn’t want Fang Jie to have a bad impression of her.
“If that’s the case, making a puppet also needs Crystal Stone Powder, any type of energy baryte powder will do, let’s collect some as well.”
Fang Jie thought for a moment, then agreed, “Let’s collect some first, who knows if we might need it.”
How long had it been, how come his knowledge was completely different from what Qin Lan knew?
Qin Lan didn’t mind, made a few adjustments, and then listed the item.
Within just a few seconds, someone contacted Qin Lan to sell a batch of crystal stone powder.
As for whether Qin Lan or Fang Jie themselves would use it, no one doubted.
Everyone knew Qin Lan was from the Elf Camp, and Fang Jie from the Undead Camp, basically not necessary for them.
In the next two days, Fang Jie rested in Feifeng Village, also waiting for the materials to arrive.
These items still posed quite high-end for the current Earth people, otherwise gathering them wouldn’t have been so troublesome.
During this time, Fang Jie wasn’t idle either; he kept improving his strength.
Surprisingly, what upgraded first wasn’t his summoning of the Skeleton but his Black Lotus Meditation Technique.
Right, this meditation skill, which seemed useless for a while after his upgrade.
But, it was after all a special Meditation Method granted as a reward, which, after a few days of incubation, had evolved on its own, becoming suitable for his current level, and usable for cultivation all the way to the bronze level.
Even Fang Jie could feel that this meditation method might continue to upgrade.
However, to further upgrade, he would have to wait until he himself had reached the bronze level, at least for now, it was not possible.
