When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

After finishing their meal, the two walked out of the tavern side by side.

"Where are you going next?" Wei Luo asked.

"I don't know. I'm going to try my luck on the street and see if I can meet the person I'm looking for." Li Shanren sighed.

"How about..." Wei Luo rolled his light green eyes, "Come to the slave market with me? I've been investigating there for the past two days."

"Slave market?" Li Shanren touched his chin.

He has never been to this place.

"There may be traces of the Sloth Cult over there." Wei Luo explained, "Aren't you looking for them too?"

Although the Order of Sloth claims to be everywhere, it is also extremely secretive. Most people cannot find their location or even their members.

"Well... then I'll go with you." Li Shanren nodded in agreement.

Anyway, he doesn't have any clues now, and the notice board has been silent. If he can find people from the Sloth Cult, he might make some unexpected discoveries.

"Follow me." Wei Luo took the lead and walked ahead.

For more than an hour, he took Li Shanren through the wide streets of Olin City.

Keep moving among the dense crowds.

During this period, Wei Luo, who suffered from wanderlust, took the wrong route several times, so it took a long time to find the slave market in Olin City.

"You don't get lost several times every day when you come here, do you?" Li Shanren asked, with a slight sweat on his forehead.

"I heard that a slave auction will be held in the market here today. The organizer of this auction must be a big slave merchant. If you find him, you may be able to find the Sloth Cult." Wei Luo said with a solemn expression.

"...Is the way you change the subject always so abrupt?"

"Let's go, maybe the auction has already started."

Wei Luo walked ahead and led the way as if nothing had happened.

"Wait!" Li Shanren, with beads of sweat streaming down his cheeks, stopped him, "Don't walk ahead, I'll go find someone to ask for directions."

"Yes." Wei Luo accepted the proposal in an easy manner.

The slave market here is not as dirty and messy as Li Shanren imagined. Instead, it is quite clean and tidy. There is no garbage on the brick-paved floor, and there is no peculiar smell on the street.

Many people who wear slave collars or slave shackles will clean the surrounding environment from time to time under the orders of slave merchants to leave a good impression on the customers who come to buy.

At the same time, they seem to have a fixed place for excretion and will not defecate anywhere.

The vast majority of slaves were not dressed in rags, and they were so dirty that their faces could not be seen clearly.

Maybe they would have some scars on their bodies from the whipping, but at least they were wearing clean linen clothes and their faces were neat and tidy.

In addition to being really ugly, he would cover his face with long hair so that no one could see him.

After all, these are commodities.

Who would want to buy a dirty and poor product and take it back?

When they come out to do business, slave merchants will naturally provide good services and satisfy customers. Only in this way can they increase sales and even take the opportunity to raise prices and sell at higher prices.

And all he had to pay was some cheap clothes and the free labor of slaves.

After all, they are all smart businessmen.

As for those slave stalls where the environment is dirty, the slaves are sloppy, and even smelly, naturally few people visit them.

Even nearby slave merchants would unite to drive out such slave stalls, thinking that they were affecting their customer flow.

However, no matter how brightly they were dressed, the slaves who were sold had empty and dim eyes on their faces, numb expressions and stiff bodies. They had completely given up control of their lives and were at the mercy of others.

In essence, this is still cruel oppression and exploitation.

Li Shanren randomly found a slave merchant and asked for directions.

When the fat slave trader saw Li Shanren coming, he thought he was a visitor and greeted him warmly.

But after learning that Li Shanren was just asking for directions, he immediately lost interest. However, he still casually pointed the direction to Li Shanren.

Li Shanren could only take Wei Luo in that direction, and after asking for directions several times, he finally found the auction venue.

Arriving at the venue, Li Shanren was immediately shocked by the dense flow of people in front of him.

The so-called auction venue is a three-meter-high wooden platform set up in the open space in the center of the market. The platform is covered with a red carpet. No one is on it yet. It seems that the auction has not started yet.

With the wooden platform as the center and ten meters away, there was a dense circle of people, probably tens of thousands of people.

For a time, the crowd was crowded, and everyone stood on tiptoe to see the scene on the stage. Those who didn't know it thought it was some kind of large-scale performance.

"Why are there so many people? Are they all here to buy slaves?"

Li Shanren didn't understand.

He glanced at the people beside him.

Many of them were wearing ordinary clothes and looked like they were just civilians. It was impossible for them to have enough money to buy slaves that could be sent to the auction house.

"They are all here to join in the fun." Wei Luo said in a accustomed manner, "Don't humans just like to do this kind of thing? Even if it has nothing to do with you, you still want to take a look and have some fun."

"Speaking of which, the two of us can be considered part of the fun..." Li Shanren scratched his head, "Do you want to join the auction? Buy a slave?"

"We are here to investigate, unlike them." Wei Luo corrected in a low voice.

"But, in this state..." Li Shanren looked at the chaotic crowd around him, "Even if someone bids, it would be difficult to find out who it is."

"Of course the people crowded here are not qualified to bid."

Wei Luo shook his head. He seemed to have a clearer understanding of the situation at the auction.

“The real sellers sit at the very back.”

"inside?"

Li Shanren stood on tiptoe, trying to see what was going on inside the venue, but there were too many people in front of him. In addition to heads, he could only see a sea of ​​people.

So, he thought for a while and shook the soul-summoning bell on his waist.

"Ring ring ring..."

Two heavily armed Grik soldiers were summoned by him.

Li Shanren ordered each of them to hold one foot and lift themselves up so that they were taller than most people and could clearly see the inside of the venue.

In addition, he also took out a pair of monocular stargazing telescopes to allow himself to see more clearly.

Seeing that the person next to them turned out to be an extraordinary person, many civilians took the initiative to distance themselves from Li Shanren and stood a few steps away.

And Wei Luo was no longer surprised by Li Shanren's ability to summon all kinds of spirit beings.

However, under the current situation, Wei Luo could not see the venue through the crowd.

But he has his own way.

"Qiang!"

The steel sword and the silver sword were unsheathed at the same time and inserted into the gaps between the gray masonry in the ground.

Then Wei Luo jumped up quickly, standing on a sword hilt with both feet, almost standing side by side with Li Shanren.

Li Shanren turned his head and looked at Wei Luo deeply, and then said, "You're not bad either."

"I can't compare to you." Wei Luo glanced at the two loyal Grik soldiers and said.

After all, one is standing by himself and the other is being carried...

Although the two of them each showed their unique skills to create a good viewing experience for themselves on the periphery of the crowd, to those around them, their operations made them look...

Somewhat prominent.
