Boundary Shattered [Interstellar]

Tang Chu thought to himself: After a while, that slave will die. .

But these people obviously didn't consider that the slaves who came to power could live.

In this game, the weapons of the slaves were taken away again, for the sake of the viewers to be more refreshed.Without the knife for support, the slave with blood holes in his stomach seemed to be about to fall down at any moment.

At the orders of their respective masters, the two slaves soon wrestled together.

Tang Chu didn't expect that the slave with a stomach full of holes and bleeding all over the ring would win this match again.

Originally, he was thrown to the ground and just passively endured the beating. Unexpectedly, strength suddenly came from his scarred body, and he beat the other person's temple fiercely.Tang Chu heard a slight "click", the man opened his eyes wide and suddenly fell to the ground.The slave turned over and sat on the other person, and slammed two fists towards the temples on both sides of the person.The supernatural barrier in front of Tang Chu bounced off another puddle of brains.

Tang Chu: "..."

The bodies of the losers were carried down as usual.Many of the surrounding audience were slaves, and another one was pushed onto the stage.Tang Chu saw with his own eyes that the dying man covered in blood didn't have much life left to fight, but he managed to get up slowly from the ground.Tang Chu raised his eyebrows with some interest.

Lian Ting squeezed Tang Chu's hand at this moment, and said in a low voice:

"I want to... save him."

Tang Chu smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I thought so too."

In most cases, Tang Chu acted decisively and directly.In this situation, if he wants to save a person, he is too lazy and has no time to plan anything, so the final method is——

Grab directly.

The black cloak read here is probably not a benevolent character. Tang Chu directly pulled the half-dead people on the stage with his mental strength, then quickly retreated, and fully prepared to deal with the subsequent attack.Unexpectedly, Tang Chu ran several steps with people on his shoulders, only a few people looked over curiously, and then stared at the stage again indifferently.

Another slave was pushed and attacked above, and the fight had already begun.

Tang Chu felt that it was a bit silly for him to run so fast with a big lump of meat on his shoulders, so he stopped and walked back tentatively.All the way back to the arena, all the black cloaks were just yelling enthusiastically and somewhat frantically for the fight on the stage, no one paid attention to him, and no one came to arrest him.

At the beginning of Tang Dynasty, I didn't know why.

Lian Ting found him, helped him lay the person on the ground, and took out the repair fluid.Although it can only treat trauma, it is better than being sprayed on someone.He asked in a low voice:

"What did you run for?"

Tang Chu hesitated and said, "Shouldn't... run away?"

Surrounded by howls of half cheers and half sighs, another corpse was thrown down, and several corpses over there had already formed a pile. .

A black cloak walked over slowly and stood still in front of Tang Chu.Tang Chu didn't show it on the surface, but in fact, the supernatural power was always ready, and he could attack in an instant and take people's lives.He didn't dare to underestimate any of the black cloaks here. He had already witnessed what these people passed by before entering here; The blood of killing is present in everyone here, and it is strong.

Unexpectedly, the black cloak did nothing, just looked at Tang Chu, and then at the slaves on the ground.

"my people."

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it was ready to go.

"One hundred star coins."

"Hmm...huh?" Tang Chu was surprised.

The black cloak on the opposite side exposed the terminal on his arm, and said impatiently: "Then ten star coins."

Tang Chu brushed out the ten star coins in a daze, the black cape nodded, and went back to the arena to continue watching the slaves fight.Only then did Tang Chu realize that he seemed to be overthinking at the beginning, touched his nose, and said to Lian Ting in an incredulous tone:

"I'm... I just bought one person with ten star coins?"

Lian Ting said: "Yes, his master definitely doesn't think much of what he could have brought to the ring, so it's actually very simple for us to save him."

Tang Chu scratched his head: "...Oh. Don't you need to press a few times on the terminal to cancel the membership?"

"For 'high-consumption' slaves, the affiliation relationship is actually not necessary. Anyway, they can be changed hands at any time. It is convenient not to bind the master's terminal. In fact, slaves with collars are equipped for nobles."

After listening to Tang Chu, he sneered, "It's too particular. Then what..." Tang Chu pointed to the person on the ground, "Then I have successfully bargained? The person didn't ask for 100 yuan, so I just said one." Words, just discounted it directly?"

Lian Ting gave Tang Chu a strange look, wondering why he had such a focus. "...Yes. [-]% off."

Tang Chu was triumphant: "Amazing! How about a reward?"

Lian Ting: "..."

"Go back and talk."

"Okay, save it!"

The two of them had no desire to continue watching this bloody arena, and saving one person was just a matter of chance, but it was impossible to save all of them.There are more than 50 arenas in total, and the rest of them are places for beating. The difference is that the further the number is, the bigger the arena is, and the more "programs" are available for viewing.After the ring area, there was a whole street of people.

The items bought and sold here are people.

Tang Chu walked into this street that seemed to be opened up for the purpose of selling people, with the idea of ​​shopping around for a long time since he came here.It is "specialized", because the buildings on both sides of the street are no longer the usual small shops, but directly in the shape of cages.It's almost like a street made up of two rows of cages.

Inside the cages are hung naked human bodies on display, hanging up row by row, as if what is being sold is not a living person, but just pieces of raw meat.

Before Tang Chu took a step in, he quickly pulled Lian Ting in front of him and covered his eyes with his hands.Lian Ting helplessly pulled his hand away, saying:

"Want to go in and have a look?"

"Yeah." Tang Chu said, "Just look at it, don't look around."

Lian Ting glanced at the naked bodies of the sellers, understood a little bit, and comforted him:

"I don't like looking at them."

Tang Chu replied: "Does that mean you like to look at me?"

Lian Ting coughed lightly and looked straight ahead.

Tang Chu smiled lowly, and said to the people following:

"Can you keep going?"

Behind him is the slave he bought for ten star coins just now. He was covered with wounds and looked like he was going to die at any moment. Tang Chu just saw that this little slave had a desire to survive, so he kindly removed him from the table. In fact, there is no plan to be sure that the person will survive after being rescued.Unexpectedly, this person stood up vigorously by relying on the simple healing and hemostasis of the repair liquid, and followed them to this place.

He knelt down on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "Go back to the master, the slave can go."

Tang Chu frowned, and said in a cold tone, "Don't call me master."

He knocked again, "Go back to my lord, the slave can go."

"Then follow."

He pushed Lian Ting into the street and glanced at the buyers and sellers hastily.Those who were sold were all slaves, and those who had no masters directly imitated the ancient method and branded their bodies to prove their slave status.According to Lian Ting, a native of the empire, most of the slaves were born with a mark on their bodies to show their identity; on such a remote planet with relatively backward technological power, it is not convenient to use machines that can stab marks on their bodies If it is, it will be branded directly with metal.

Tang Chu thought, maybe tattoos are not popular here anymore?

"Slaves are actually easy to identify. In general, they are tied by the neck and held in the hands of their masters... A slave without a master cannot be in a public place.... The slave market is one, and many people choose to go to the mine star and the garbage star To pick and punish those sentenced to slave labor, you only need to pay some star coins to the government account."

Tang Chu nodded while listening.In fact, he asked Lian Ting to tell him these things just to make Lian Ting less able to see the bodies of those sold slaves, and the effect seemed to be very good.

"... They are slaves from birth, and there are industries and companies that specialize in the sale and purchase of slaves, and they 'raise' the sons of slaves at birth, and then distribute them to subsidiaries...I don't know the details, it seems that slaves of all ages are Someone will buy it?... I don't really understand."

Tang Chu said: "I may understand it better." He recalled what he learned in another memory of Tang Chu a long time ago, "Each age has its own... use? Let's describe it like this, tsk, those nobles, there are Specially likes to 'raise and adjust' to teach little slaves..."

Lian Ting was stunned.

After dating Tang Chu, he didn't think about it anymore, but Tang Chu's words inevitably made him think about it.

Tang Chu said he understood better.

...It was indeed he who liked to torture'kill' slaves and raise slaves in captivity.

Lian Ting pinched his fingertips lightly.The Tang Chu he had come into contact with and learned about was not what was shown on the star network, so he should treat Tang Chu according to what he had originally learned.

Finally, the thoughts that just jumped out for a moment were thrown aside again.

At this moment, Tang Chu suddenly lowered his head, leaned into Lian Ting's ear, and asked:

"Then... do you have engravings on your body?"

Lian Ting shook his head, "No, it's Tang Tao. He specifically called the control bureau and said that you like to mark the slaves yourself, so they didn't make a new mark after taking away the previous personal terminal."

Tang Chu heaved a sigh of relief, and then thought that this boy Tang Tao had done some meritorious service in a daze. It seemed that he still had to spend a little on his wedding gift.

Anyway, he was planning to leave, so before he left, let him give his cheap brother a few months a little thought.

...or...send a slave there?

Tang Chu grinned sinisterly, making up his mind that this was a good idea.

"It's fine if you don't have one." Tang Chu leaned closer to Lian Ting's ear again, "'I' seem to have a habit of engraving slaves, okay...then will you let me engrave your mark myself?"

The airflow from Tang Chu's speech fell behind Lian Ting's ears, making his body tense for a while.Lian Ting stretched his fingers behind and pushed Tang Chu's head away, rubbed his ears lightly, and said nonchalantly:

"it is good."
