When it was almost noon, Yue Yang got up and entered the mining area with a dozen other mercenaries who had also seen the notice.
None of these mercenaries were reincarnators.
They were all descendants of reincarnators.
In Human Valley, although reincarnators were forbidden from fighting, they still had strength. No matter how poor they were, it was impossible for them to starve or freeze to death. And as a reincarnator, they had some interpersonal relationships. Otherwise, who would dare to challenge a place like Human Valley alone? Back then, Grandmother Saluman, who had successfully passed the sixth stage, Demon Valley, had no choice but to retreat when faced with Human Valley.
From this, one could imagine the difficulty of passing Human Valley.
The greater the difficulty, the longer one would stay in Human Valley.
Many of the reincarnators who challenged might not be able to leave Human Valley for the rest of their lives. Some reincarnators, although they could leave, because they had lived in Human Valley for a long time, they could not bear the loneliness and had marriages and descendants … … Because the requirements to bring people away were too high, even the most important relatives, reincarnators had to think carefully before bringing them away. Moreover, as time passed, the reincarnators' descendants might have reproduced for several or even dozens of generations. Direct relatives and collateral relatives were a large group with tens of thousands of people, it was impossible to bring them all away.
Then, these reincarnators who had no choice but to stay in Human Valley would be reunited generation after generation.
Heirs would be passed down from generation to generation.
If the reincarnators in the distant ancestor's era had a high status, maybe the direct relatives could benefit a little. But if the reincarnators in the distant ancestor's era were all commoners, then the descendants would have to run around and work hard for survival.
If they did well, they could become merchants or mercenaries.
Ordinary ones would be commoners; worse, they would be poor people who worked hard for others to feed their mouths; finally, they would be slaves who lost their freedom and sold to others in exchange for money to let their relatives live … …
The mercenaries who entered the valley with Yue Yang to make a living might be collateral relatives or descendants separated by many generations.
In their bodies, the reincarnators' bloodline was already very thin.
Their strength was also very weak.
The strongest strength was only around Earth Rank Level 5.
If he brought this strength to Tong Tian Tower, then it would not be bad, but this was Human Valley, the reincarnated people were all Sovereign Realm experts, even the weakest dregs were above Heaven Stage Level 5, the strength of Earth Stage was simply not enough.
Fortunately, Human Valley forbade martial arts. Otherwise, they could be crushed to death with just a finger.
"Do you have any Animal War Puppets?" The leader among them still looked up to Yue Yang a little. This was because in their eyes, individual strength was not important. What was important was what one had. Each of them had an Animal Puppet with different battle strength, but their battle strength was still not small. Naturally, they felt that they were not on the same level as Yue Yang, this Jianghu little shrimp who had a sword as an accessory. Fortunately, as mercenaries, their status was very low, and they were not arrogant. At most, they had the confidence to show off their seniority in front of a small fry like Yue Yang.
"Yes." Yue Yang really wanted to say no, but he felt that if he said it, the other party would definitely take out the attitude of 'I'm a senior' to lecture him. For the sake of peace and quiet, Yue Yang decided to say the truth.
"What rank?" The leader was shocked. Could it be that this brat was not one of those poor mercenary little shrimps?
"Are you asking about bronze, silver, or gold?" Yue Yang asked back.
"You have all of them?" A mercenary who accidentally heard this was scared silly. For ordinary mercenaries, it was already very arrogant to have one Animal War Puppet. Two was already the limit, and this was the result of a lifetime of hard work. It was impossible for young people to have one. In Human Valley, other than those nobles who controlled the army, who else would carry a group of Animal War Puppets with them?
"I have an ancestor who specializes in War Puppets." Yue Yang expressed that his ancestor was also generous, but he lived a miserable life.
"No wonder!" The leader nodded his head in realization.
At this moment, hearing that Yue Yang's ancestor was once a War Puppet Master, the attitude of the mercenaries towards Yue Yang immediately changed. Imperceptibly, a kind of respect rose within them. No matter how well the later generation did, his ancestor had a glorious past and had a certain amount of knowledge. This was an existence that no amount of money could buy.
When it was time to officially enter the mining area and register their identities, everyone consciously lined up behind Yue Yang.
Even the leader of the mercenaries had modestly declined.
However, Yue Yang waved his hand and still asked the leader of the mercenaries to line up first. He showed a rare young man's humble attitude and good upbringing, which made the mercenaries even more impressed.
Ask yourself, if you had a few Animal War Puppets, would you keep them all and not take them out to show off? Would you just pretend to be a mercenary with a sword?
In this world, how many people could really hide their strength and bide their time? Especially the young people who were proud and arrogant!
"Entering the mining area doesn't mean that we will accept your arrangements! Furthermore, what's with this one crystal deposit? I have never heard of a mining area that requires one crystal to enter! Is this the attitude you have when you recruit people here? " When the leader of the mercenaries saw the conditions to enter the valley, he was instantly enraged. They had to pay a one crystal deposit before they even started working. What kind of logic was this?
"If you don't want to do it, then get lost!" The guard on duty had a bad attitude like a wolf dog, barking as soon as he opened his mouth.
"What?" Although the mercenaries were often insulted, it was usually when they had lost a battle or made some kind of mistake. If they were in the wrong, they would accept it. But now, before they even entered the door, they were already being scolded. How could they not be angry?
"I have been in a bad mood these few days. Get lost immediately, or I will capture all of you and make you into slaves!" The guard on duty said fiercely.
"Look at how things have turned out?" The leader of the mercenaries knew that he was here to find a job and make a living, not to quarrel. As a leader, he had to have better endurance. He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. Then, he turned to Yue Yang and asked for Yue Yang's opinion. What should he do? Should he leave or stay?
"If you don't get lost, I will release my dogs to bite you. Don't think that you can be arrogant here just because you have a few lousy war puppets. Let me tell you, if you dare to resist, you will immediately be charged with attacking a noble's territory and thrown into the Black Dungeon!" There were only four guards on duty, but they were very arrogant.
They looked as if they had the mercenaries in front of them.
Indeed, if they were charged with 'attacking a noble's territory', it would be a heavy crime that no one could bear.
Although it was not considered rebellion, it was close to it … If they were caught, they would be thrown into the Black Dungeon and executed on a specific execution platform!
When the leader of the mercenaries heard this, he frowned and quickly waved his hand to signal his companions to retreat. They could not get into a conflict with these four scoundrels, in case they used underhanded methods to charge them with attacking a noble's territory.
Just as the leader of the mercenaries was about to leave with his team, a commotion suddenly came from the mining area.
It was a clamor.
The sound of hurried and messy footsteps could be heard from afar.
In just a dozen seconds, two shadows could be seen fleeing in this direction, with several war puppets with red eyes chasing after them.
Yue Yang first looked into the distance and found that there was another group of shadows moving at the back. Every one of them was in rags and extremely dirty. He reckoned that they were the slave miners of the mining area. The two shadows running at the front were the same. Although the shadow on the left was unkempt, it could be seen that it was a woman. The shadow on the right was a tall and skinny man. In his arms, there was a dirty little black ball. Yue Yang guessed that this little black ball, which he did not forget to protect as if it was his heart treasure, should be their child …
After running for a long time, the strength of the two gradually weakened. They panted heavily and found it difficult to maintain their pace. Their footsteps gradually became messy.
Their speed was getting slower and slower.
The war puppets did not know fatigue. Their speed would not increase, but it would not decrease either.
In the blink of an eye, it had caught up to the woman who was lagging behind. When it opened its mouth, it could almost bite her calf … The man panicked and used all his remaining strength to pull the woman, narrowly saving her from the mouth of the war puppet. But he did not realize that the sinister guard at the gate had already sent out the war puppets to intercept them. He was so focused on the back that he did not notice the ambush in front of him that he was pounced on by a wolf-shaped war puppet.
He fell to the ground in an instant.
The man reacted quickly and covered the little black ball with his hands in time.
But the wolf-shaped war puppet had already opened its big mouth. Its sharp teeth easily tore off a piece of flesh from the man's arm. Blood splattered everywhere!
"Impossible!" A mercenary cried out in shock, "If there is no reason to attack, the war puppet will not hurt people!"
"This, this is because this couple has been convicted." The leader of the mercenaries shivered.
"How is this possible, they are unarmed and have no offensive ability …" The mercenary from before still did not believe it. "The laws are meant to protect us humans. How can they bypass the laws and harm us? This is impossible!"
"Actually, there is a terrifying legend in the Human Valley." The leader of the mercenaries lowered his voice in fear. "When they obtained the recognition of the God of War, they identified all of us civilians as enemies. The laws are indeed meant to protect the survival of humans. However, they deceived the laws and treated the majority of humans as' sinners' that could be attacked for the survival of certain people. "
"…" When the mercenaries heard this secret, they all felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
Not far from Yue Yang, a few war puppets pounced on the man, ready to tear him and the little black ball in his arms into pieces.
The man struggled with all his might but could not break free from the wolf puppet's pounce.
He growled.
Using the last bit of strength in his body, he pushed the little black ball out of his arms with one hand and let it roll out of the attack range. One of the war puppets noticed the escaped target and immediately chased after it. It opened its big mouth and was ready to bite the little black ball's head into pieces.
The woman who was surrounded by a few war puppets suddenly had the strength to rush over and pick up the little black ball.
She raised the little black ball high up in the air.
Other than this kind of protection, as a mother, there was nothing more she could do …
"Gnaw on her legs, haha, start from the top of her legs, slowly. When her legs are all gone, then you can eat the child. Don't bite her to death, make sure she watches as the child is eaten … haha, this is too exciting, what a touching scene!" The four guards on duty laughed out loud.
"No!" The man let out a sorrowful howl and climbed up with blood dripping from his body. He rushed over and carried the woman and the child.
As a man, he was powerless to protect his wife and child.
The only thing he could do was to let them die behind him.
Even though life had long been hopeless, there was still a sliver of hope in his heart. He hoped that the laws set by the gods would produce a miracle so that the bad guys would not find loopholes and that the poor people would have a way out. At the very least, he could not die in the mouths of the war puppets who were accomplices to the evil. Thinking back to the time when the Queen of Conquest created the war puppets, it was to protect the civilians!
"God, please open your eyes!" The man who was surrounded by the war puppets let out a sorrowful howl in despair, his voice echoing through the heavens.
