No one actually stood up. Li Huailin was a little surprised because a few of the slaves didn't seem to be young. Could it be that they had been captured not long ago? Or did they not want to cooperate now? Did they have any concerns? That didn't seem to be the case. Their favorability towards him was quite high. The system had notified him several times before, so it was impossible for them not to cooperate.
Seeing that Li Huailin was a little confused, a few of the slaves explained the situation to Li Huailin because of their high favorability. After listening, Li Huailin found that he was taking things for granted. In fact, many people had been slaves here for several years, but it didn't mean that they could understand the language of the Sektor Monsters after a long time.
Some people were caught and forced to do hard labor all day, and some were locked in cellars all day long. What do you think they know? Of course, the Sektor Monsters wouldn't give them any language lessons. They knew that they couldn't understand, so when they worked, they just used hand gestures to command them.
Li Huailin nodded, but after thinking about it, although they could do it with hand gestures, sometimes they couldn't express themselves clearly. Li Huailin asked, and it was really possible. Yes, Li Huailin also learned that there were people like foremen among the slaves.
The method that the Sechtor monster thought of to manage the slaves was similar to the method he gave to the dragons. In fact, it was to find a few of the slaves. These people were often the slaves that were captured earlier. Because they had been here for a long time, they could more or less understand some of the Sechtor monster's language. The Sektor Monsters also taught them a little more so that they could understand their own words, and then let them manage the slaves.
Although these foremen were also slaves, their treatment was obviously much better than that of ordinary slaves. Soon, the Sektor Monsters also discovered the advantages of this method. This group of slaves who originally wanted to run suddenly had a goal. Their goal was, of course, to become the next foreman. This way, the slaves would resist less, so the Sektor Monsters began to promote this method.
These foremen were also very hateful. They were originally slaves who suffered for half their lives, and their minds were distorted. Now that they were small officials, they were actually a little grateful to the Sektor Monsters. In addition, they were used to being abused, so they didn't dare to resist the Sektor Monsters at all. So they worked hard for them and abused the new slaves. So when it came to them, Li Huailin clearly felt the hatred in these slaves' hearts.
Of course, Li Huailin also understood that the people he was looking for were these "foremen", but they weren't here yet. According to these slaves, these foremen usually didn't work. They only told them when there were tasks. Usually, they would wander around the town center or inside the city, supervising the slaves everywhere.
"Town center?" Li Huailin looked at the building next to him. This seemed to be the town center. Just as he was about to order the soldiers next to him to look for it, he saw a few soldiers walking out with a few humans.
"Your Majesty, look at that person. His name is Rehnquist. He's a foreman." A slave immediately pointed at one of the humans.
Li Huailin looked in the direction of the other person's finger and saw a slightly thin old man. His appearance really looked a little old. He was definitely in his seventies, and he looked a little sloppy. Although he was a foreman, he looked no different from a slave. He was still wearing tattered clothes and pants. He also looked like he hadn't bathed for a few years. He looked like a real beggar. But when he turned around to look at these slaves, Li Huailin found that there was at least a difference. This old man didn't have any injuries, but each of these slaves had injuries. It seemed like they were often whipped.
"Wait, bring that old man over." Li Huailin said directly to the soldiers. These soldiers were originally following Li Huailin's orders to gather the people who weren't Sequthor Star Monsters in the plaza. Hearing Li Huailin's words, they immediately brought Rehnquist over.
Rehnquist was a little nervous. He didn't know where these troops came from. Although they were also human troops, he couldn't be sure that they were here to rescue people. Even if they were here to rescue people, he might have been a slave before, but he was now a foreman who helped the Sequthor Star Monsters manage the slaves. Strictly speaking, he was a lackey. So when he heard Li Huailin say that he would be brought over, he was naturally nervous. Moreover, he saw a few slaves standing beside Li Huailin pointing at him. It seemed like they were complaining to this guy who looked like the leader of the human troops.
What worried Rehnquist the most was that next to this leader, there was a person who looked like a general staring angrily at him. Yes, the general he saw was obviously Legg. Legg was a hot-blooded young man who hated these traitorous lackeys the most. So after hearing what happened to these slaves, he obviously didn't have a good attitude towards these foremen. When he saw Rehnquist walk over, he glared at him angrily, as if he was ready to draw his sword and hack him to death.
With a nervous heart, Rehnquist walked to Li Huailin's side. Before Li Huailin could speak, Rehnquist hurriedly knelt down in front of Li Huailin, "My Lord, I really didn't mean to help those Sequthors. They forced me. You know that I was originally a slave too. I could only do whatever they wanted me to do. Otherwise, I would have died. They really forced me."
"Who asked you to admit your mistake? Stand up first and speak properly." Li Huailin said with a headache.
"My Lord, I beg you to spare my life." Rehnquist panicked and hurriedly said, because Legg's gaze really worried him.
"Come come come, don't worry. I didn't say I would kill you." Li Huailin said, "Let me ask you first, do you understand the language of these Sequthors? Answer me properly, because this really concerns your life."
"Sigh … I can understand most of it." Rehnquist didn't know what Li Huailin meant by this, but he could only answer truthfully.
"Good! Talent, Dang Guo needs talent like you now. "Li Huailin said happily.
"Huh?" Rehnquist was slightly stunned, and hadn't regained his senses.
"You are now my subordinate. You will be in charge of translating from now on. Understand?" Li Huailin said with a smile.
"Uh … Yes, my Lord." Rehnquist didn't even know who Li Huailin was or what kind of army this was, but could he say no at this time? Because if he said no, he would immediately be dragged out and hacked to death. He had no choice.
"I heard that there are many 'foremen' like you?" Li Huailin asked again.
"Yes, my Lord." Rehnquist nodded. Of course, there was nothing to hide.
"Good, lead the soldiers and find all the foremen who understand the language of the Sequthors. I need a large number of translators." Li Huailin said.
"Uh … Yes, my Lord." As the saying goes, old people become shrewd, Rehnquist was able to glean some information from Li Huailin's words. From the looks of it, the leader of the human army was looking for a translator. Of course, through this, he also deduced that Li Huailin's army was probably from another continent. Since they had just arrived here, they needed a translator.
This was a good thing. To be honest, although he was a foreman on Planet Sektor's side, he was still the avatar of a slave. Although his life was slightly better than the other slaves, it was still much worse than the life he had before he came here. Although he didn't know the identity of this army, judging from their equipment, it should be a regular army. If he could survive here, he might even be able to get a military position. Wouldn't that be a clean slate?
Thinking of this, Rehnquist suddenly felt that his life seemed to have a little more hope. His chance had come. It just so happened that this leader saw him first and asked him to find other translators. Maybe he could become the leader of these translators.
Of course, Li Huailin didn't know why Rehnquist suddenly became interested. He didn't have time to think about what this guy was thinking. Anyway, he probably wouldn't dare to disobey him. There was more than one translator. If this guy didn't listen, he could just hack him to death.
Rehnquist led the soldiers to find people. On the other hand, Li Huailin was preparing to enter the city center and wait. After all the translators arrived, he would immediately ask them about the situation.
"Your Majesty, what should we do with these people?" Legg asked as he pointed to the slaves beside him.
"Sigh …" Li Huailin looked at the slaves. Of course, they had heard the conversation between Li Huailin and Rehnquist. Therefore, their impression of Li Huailin increased a little. After all, most of them had been abused by the foremen. If Li Huailin gave the order to deal with these foremen, it would be very satisfying. However, their impression of him would drop again. Now, not only did Li Huailin not deal with them, he even planned to put them in an important position. Of course, they were very disappointed, so their impression of him increased again.
However, these people were indeed useless to him. It didn't matter if their impression of him increased. However, Li Huailin thought about it. Most of them should have been sailors. After all, they were captured at sea. They also had a port here, so they might be useful. Therefore, he waved his hand. "Keep them first. Lock them up first."
