A dark and damp underground prison.

Water dripped from the walls, and black twisted plants and moss grew in the corners.

Waking up from a coma, Su Nian opened his eyes and immediately realized that his situation was not good.

The air here was filled with a damp and musty smell, mixed with a choking rancid stench, which made him shudder.

The sharp pain in his limbs made him bow his head subconsciously.

Immediately, he found that his limbs had been pierced by iron hooks, and he was suspended in mid-air. The iron chain made a cold metal impact sound when his body was shaking.

Beside him, there are hundreds of figures with pierced bodies hanging in the air. Their eyes are dull, as if they have been eroded by the darkness of this dungeon.

Looking up, strange utensils were scattered aside, the rusty iron tongs and hooks were still stained with dried blood, and there were a few mutilated and rotting corpses piled up in the corner, being slowly swallowed by twisted plants.

The entire prison is filled with the atmosphere of death and despair, which makes people shudder.

Su Nian tried to break free from the restraints, but severe pain came from shaking his body, and sweat oozes from his forehead.

At the same time, a cold breath emerged from the iron chain and poured into his body, making him shiver uncontrollably.

This made Su Nian realize that he was in big trouble.

This time is different than before, he has become a prisoner, and the difficulty of escaping this dungeon can be imagined.

But he didn't understand why the undead creatures didn't kill him, but chose to imprison him here to die.

In the cold environment at this time, there was only the sound of friction and collision between the water droplets and the iron chain, and the dim sight could not see the distant scene clearly, which made his mood even heavier.

At this moment, a figure came from the darkness in the distance.

It was about 1.5 meters tall, with off-white skin and gray childlike pores, hairless all over, and its scrawny body made it look hideous and ugly.

It dragged a half-meter-long metal iron hook in its left hand, and a large wooden barrel in its right hand, and limped to him.

Just when Su Nian was puzzled, the gray-white figure raised his hand and pierced the iron hook in his chest into his chest without hesitation.

"Your mother...!"

Blood spurted from the wound immediately, and slid down towards the wooden barrel in the gray-white figure's hand.

After receiving half a bucket of blood, the gray-white figure withdrew the iron hook, and then spit out a cloud of gray mist towards his chest, which turned into a transparent liquid after it came into contact with his wound, and adhered to his wound.

Seeing this scene, Su Nian finally understood why he was not killed on the spot.

There are two types of resource lands in the domain world, namely renewable resource lands and non-renewable resource lands.

But there is also a special resource that the human race has never had. This kind of resource is not born naturally, but created afterward.

The belief database records a lot of information about the created special resource land, one of which is called the "blood slave" resource land.

The resources produced by the blood slave resource area are not naturally bred spiritual springs, spiritual mines, spiritual plants, etc., but are composed of flesh and blood creatures in the domain.

Cultivating this type of resource requires extensive capture of flesh and blood, imprisoning them and harvesting their blood regularly.

It was recorded in the belief database that before coming to the human world, the Misty Clan also raised blood slaves, but the method was relatively mild, using mind control instead of direct imprisonment.

Thinking of this, Su Nian's expression changed.

Realizing that he has become a blood slave of the Necromancers and will endure endless harvesting of flesh and blood in the future, he shudders.

But now his body is completely restrained, and he has no possibility of breaking free.

At this time, the gray-skinned thin figure dragged the wooden barrel to the blood slave who was suspended beside him, harvested the blood in the same way, and sprayed gray mist to cover the wound after harvesting, so that the wound would no longer bleed.

During the period, it was discovered that some blood slaves had died, and the gray-skinned thin figure would cruelly dismember the hanger with an iron hook and throw it into a corner.

After finishing all this, the thin gray-skinned figure dragged the barrel and left.

After a long time, it turned back again, this time dragging a wooden barrel full of black twisted plants.

After the gray-white undead creatures smashed the plants in the barrel, they came to them and began to feed them one by one.

Su Nian didn't resist the feeding, and immediately swallowed the black plant residue.

He understands that he is in a desperate situation, resistance will only bring physical torture, but cooperation can save energy and find opportunities to escape.

for the next period of time.

Su Ming tried various ways to escape, but all failed.

He was completely reduced to a blood slave raised by the dead, and his blood was harvested regularly, and his daily food was plants full of rotten smell.

Although this kind of plant tastes disgusting, it is full of aura and will not let him die.

Occasionally, new flesh and blood beings would be sent in, their bodies would be pierced cruelly, and they would be suspended in mid-air just like him.

Such days can not see the future, full of despair.

But Su Nian did not give up. He felt that his journey should not end here, and there is still a distant world waiting for him to explore.

In a dark environment, inner negative emotions breed.

Here he can't practice blood sacrifice, because there are no resources for him to practice.

If he forcibly practiced the blood sacrifice without resources, his body would devour his own blood, and he would easily die suddenly.

Day after day of struggle.

Su Nian was suffering unimaginable torture in his heart, and he gradually realized the reality, realizing that he might never be able to get out again.

While feeling disheartened, he sighed inwardly.

He thought that such a day would come.

After all, the journey cannot always be smooth sailing, and death along the way is like a shadow.

Faced with the crisis of life and death countless times, it is impossible for him to escape forever.

The body also became weaker and weaker during this period, the lips became pale, and occasionally there was a brief coma.

Realizing that he might not be able to hold on any longer, Su Nian had an idea.

When this thought comes to mind, it burns like a flame.

Since you are going to die, you have to die well, and you have to contribute the final value to the future of the human race.

When the life of the gray-skinned undead came again, Su Nian took the initiative to talk to him.

Finding that the gray-skinned undead beings ignored him, Su Nian began to change the domain language in an attempt to establish communication with them.

After changing more than ten domain languages in succession, he changed to a language of Demon World:

"Hey, can you understand what I'm saying?"

During this questioning, the gray-skinned necromantic life suddenly raised its head and looked at him, its eyes were full of doubts, and it even forgot the life above it that was still bleeding.

"Are you...calling me?"

The voice of the undead life was very hoarse, and he stumbled when speaking, and it seemed that he hadn't mastered his mother tongue proficiently.

"Yeah, can we talk?"

"Gulu...to complete the task of the master, you can't...chat."

As he said that, the undead being who called himself Gulu found that the blood slave above was still bleeding, and immediately started to stop the bleeding.

After a short conversation, Su Nian found that although the method of this undead life was very cruel, his mind seemed immature.

Su Nian didn't speak again, but waited for Gulu to finish drawing blood and take the twisted plant to feed, and then took the initiative to talk to him again.

This time Gulu didn't refuse, but looked at him curiously, as if he didn't understand why he could speak his own language.

Facing his series of inquiries, Gulu quickly left impatiently.

Realizing that he had acted too hastily, Su Nian felt annoyed, but he knew he still had a chance.

A few days later, Gollum came again to harvest the blood.

After Gulu finished his work, Su Nian took the initiative to say:

"Gulu, let me tell you about the outside world. You haven't been to the outside world, have you?"

"Story?" Gollum asked curiously.

"Yes, I'll tell you a story."

Hearing that Su Nian was going to tell a story, Gulu nodded silly, came to sit in front of him with his knees hugged, and stared at him intently.

Seeing that Gulu was finally willing to get in touch with him, Su Nian finally let go of his concerns.

He knew that his first step had been successful.

Next, he began to tell a lot about his experiences during the journey.

The field of forest giants in bloom with green plants, the thousand-meter peak covered by ice and snow, the flaming mountains with flowing magma... The scenes described are only secondary. During this period, he combined human fairy tales to weave many interesting stories.

This made Gulu gradually become curious about the outside world.

Occasionally, when he didn't need to be busy, Gulu would take the initiative to come and sit in front of him and listen to him tell stories outside.

As he became familiar with it, Su Nian also learned about the forces in the domain that imprisoned him from Gulu.

Gulu didn't know what this field was called, he only knew that the ethnic group he was in was called "Shuo Zhan".

This ethnic group has a very strict hierarchy.

Divided into four classes.

The first layer is called Death Song, which is the royal class in the Shuo Zhun tribe, controlling all the resources of the Shuo Zhun tribe, and is also the most powerful group in the Shuo Zhun tribe.

The second level is called dead brains, which are the nobles of the Shuo Zhan clan, and the master of Gulu's mouth is the dead brain class.

The third class is called the dead stone, which is the warrior class in Shuo Zhan, who is responsible for the war externally and maintains the dominance of the top class internally.

The fourth class is the Necromancer class where Guru belongs. They are slaves of the upper three classes. Although they belong to the same race, they have no status. underlying work.

Gulu's job is to wander around the four blood slave farms, regularly harvesting the blood produced by the blood slaves for the upper class to feed them.

The division of labor in the whole society is very strict, no matter how talented the bottom class is, there is absolutely no possibility of class advancement.

In Gulu's narration, his mother and father are also slaves of the undead, but they have not seen it many times, and it is only the task of the master to give birth to it.

It can be seen that Gulu is not dissatisfied with his humble background, and his words are full of respect for his master and fear of the superior.

This made Su Nian feel that the brainwashing of the Shuo dead clan was really too successful.

The growing environment from childhood to adulthood made Gulu feel that if he is a slave, he will always be a slave, and he has already accepted his status as the lowest in this ethnic group.

In the subsequent exchanges, Su Nian began to teach Gulu to grow up.

Gradually, Gulu seemed to have feelings for him, and every time he harvested his blood, he would subconsciously keep his hand.

But the harvest would not stop because of this, and Gulu did not dare to disobey his master's order.

Su Nian also started a plan to transform Gulu during this period.

In the next few years, after telling the stories of the outside world, Su Nian began to tell stories about the human race.

In this story, the human society is united as one, everyone is equal, there is no one who is born noble, and there is no ruler who exploits the lower classes.

They have a common belief leader: Feng Qi.

Free food, free training resources... The human race in the story shocked Gulu greatly.

It seems that it can't believe that such a place exists in this world.

Freedom, equality, everyone has the same starting point, and can become a strong man who is watched by the tribe, which subverts Gulu's worldview.

From then on, Gulu's thoughts changed.

When Su Nian said:

"Gulu, if you were born in my human race, maybe you would also be a genius who has attracted the attention of the people."

Hearing these words, Gulu subconsciously looked at his skinny body, and a gleam of light appeared in his dead gray eyes.

"If I were human..."

"Yes, if you are a human being, you can choose the future. You don't have to serve the upper class like you are now. You should be the master of your own destiny."

"I... am not human."

The light in Gulu's eyes finally dissipated, and it shook its head in distress, squatting on the ground looking very painful.

The appearance of Su Nian is like a key to a new world for Gulu.

If he had never met Su Nian, he would have been immersed in the years of enslavement, and he would not even have thought about why I was a slave.

As the saying goes:

If I had never seen the light, I could have endured the darkness.

After several years of contact with Su Nian, Gulu gradually understood a lot of truths, and even had a question in his mind that he would never think about before.

Why am I a slave?

After the seeds of thought were sown, the dead silence in Gulu's eyes turned into flames.

Especially the human race described by Su Nian made it full of yearning, a world where even the most despicable slaves like it could choose the future.

In Su Nian's description, the human race does not have top dignitaries, and everything in the world led by the leader of the human race, Feng Qi, is so beautiful.

A seed of faith was also sown at this time.

A few years later, Su Nian's body became increasingly haggard, and Gulu was also anxious about his physical condition.

At this time, Gulu already had rebellious thoughts, and he no longer obeyed his master's order to draw Su Nian's blood, and regarded Su Nian as his mentor.

But Gulu didn't know any medical methods, so he could only watch Su Nian get weaker and weaker.

On this day, when Gulu came to the blood slave dungeon.

Su Nian, who was sitting on the ground leaning on the rock wall, opened his eyes, his pale lips trembling slightly:

"Gulu."

"Teacher." Gulu came to Su Nian, knelt down with his knees together, and kowtowed heavily to Su Nian:

"You rest first, I need to complete the task of the master before I come to see you."

With that said, Gulu stood up and began to harvest the blood slaves who were hanging here.

After a long time, after finishing his work, Gulu came to Su Nian and sat on the ground:

"teacher."

"Gulu, I'm afraid I don't have much time...Before I die, I want to ask you, have you ever thought about changing your destiny?"

"Teacher...I think."

Taking a deep breath, Gulu said these words with difficulty.

This sentence is like a hammer that breaks the shackles of the seal. Su Nian also asked Gulu before, but Gulu finally chose to give up because he was afraid of his own changes. in the mind.

Although we once asked ourselves, why am I a slave, but behind the doubts it still dare not accept change.

This time, after a brief struggle, Gulu's eyes became extremely firm.

Hearing these words, Su Nian showed a relieved smile on his face:

"Gulu, there is a saying in my human race that princes and generals are better than each other. The world you understand is not static. As long as you want, the future can be what you want."

"Teacher, I want to change, but why should I change as a slave?"

"Why?" A smile appeared on Su Nian's pale face:

"This lesson, I will teach you... the blood sacrifice!"

"What's this?"

"This is the skill taught to us by Feng Qi, the leader of our human race. Although you are a slave, your blood potential is higher than mine. As long as you practice this skill, you will have the opportunity to change your own destiny."

Whenever it is said that the leader of the human race seals chess, Gulu always sees the light of admiration in the eyes of the teacher, which also makes Gulu have a strong curiosity about the leader of the human race in the story.

"Teacher, I want to learn." Gulu nodded solemnly at this moment.

"Next, try to perceive the qi and blood energy circulating in the body according to the content of my teaching..."

In the following years, Gulu learned the technique of blood sacrifice.

As a low-level slave, Gulu does not have any cultivation resources to use, nor is he eligible to apply to his master for possession of cultivation resources.

But the problem is not unsolvable.

In Su Nian's eyes, Gulu has the best resource channel for stealing food.

Gulu's usual job is to harvest the blood of the blood slaves, and then deliver the blood to the upper-level masters. During this period, Gulu is responsible for the harvesting and collection process, so he can always find opportunities to steal blood and energy for the consumption of blood sacrifices.

As for whether the upper echelon would find out, Su Nian carefully analyzed Gulu's current situation.

Gulu is now managing four blood slave prisons, but even Gulu doesn't know the exact number of blood slaves.

It can be seen that the management is very lax. The upper management is only responsible for arresting the blood slaves and sending them to the blood slave prisons. They have never thought about monitoring the blood slaves' blood production.

Even less will I believe that ignorant and despicable slaves have the guts to use their blood energy for other things.

Even if a blood slave died, Gulu would not report it to his superiors, nor would his superiors take the initiative to inquire.

In the eyes of the senior officials of the Shuozhu tribe, the low-level slaves have long been domesticated. They have no channels to acquire knowledge, and they do not know any methods of cultivation. Based on these two points alone, it is impossible for slaves to resist in this life.

The ideological stencil was already firmly embedded in the slave community.

Because of this, the management is very reassuring about the slaves and is never afraid of problems with them.

History has also proven that slaves are very reliable.

But such a management model is full of loopholes in Su Nian's eyes.

This also gave Gulu a chance to rise.

He first asked Gulu to count the number of blood slaves who were still alive in the four blood slave prisons, and the final number was 2328.

Then Su Nian taught Gulu the method of qi and blood perception.

This method was taught to the race by the Lord of the Mist back then, and after opening it, one can clearly see the fluctuations of Qi and blood energy in the body.

In this way, Su Nian mastered the specific values of the blood output of the four blood slave prisons.

Some of these blood slaves are strong and some are weak, and regularly there will be blood slaves who die because they cannot bear it, so there is a lot of room for them to steal.

After getting the complete data, Su Nian began to tailor a plan for stealing Qi and blood for Gulu.

Time flies.

With Su Nian's help, Gulu's body became stronger and stronger during the practice, his strength improved significantly, and the emptiness in his eyes was gradually replaced by confidence.

Su Nian's transformation was undoubtedly a success.

He gave Gulu the power to break free from the shackles of fate and resist the oppression of the powerful.

And this was the ultimate goal that Su Nian wanted to accomplish before he died.

two years later.

On this day, Gulu, covered in scars, came to the Blood Slave Prison.

Seeing this scene, Su Nian suddenly realized that Gulu must have forgotten himself during his cultivation, which resulted in the reduction of the amount of Qi and blood submitted and he was severely beaten.

Although he made detailed plans for Gulu, Gulu often forgot.

In Master Gulu's eyes, it was Gulu's poor care that caused the blood slaves to die excessively, which affected the harvest of energy and energy.

At this moment, he said earnestly and earnestly:

"Next time, steal less blood. Your future is still very long. You have to endure the loneliness for a while. What you should do now is to wait in dormancy. Don't let your efforts come to naught in the end... If there is another time, you may die , after all, your life is worthless in the eyes of your master, you are just its tool."

Gulu who came to sit down in front of him heard this and lowered his head respectfully:

"Teacher, I understand."

"Let's start today's lesson."

Hearing this, Gulu immediately went to the corner of the wall, pulled out the pre-condensed blood spar, and then performed the blood sacrifice exercise cross-legged, and the energy of energy and blood hidden in the body burst out immediately, and his skinny body quickly filled up. The height was more than two meters, the muscles all over his body were congealed, and a faint blood-colored halo flowed on the surface of the gray-white skin.

Seeing Gulu's current appearance, Su Nian nodded in relief, then suddenly lowered his head and coughed violently, bloodshot from the corner of his mouth.

The environment of this field has done a lot of harm to his body.

Although he hadn't been drawn blood these years, but living in such an environment for a long time, his physical deficit was already very serious.

Su Nian didn't know how long he could live.

It is impossible to escape now.

The Blood Slave Dungeon he was in was located in the area guarded by Shuo Zhan warriors, and he would definitely die if he went out.

He just wants to plant a seed for the future of the human race in a limited time, which is his final goal in life.

Although his body is dead, the belief in dawn that was condensed by thousands of human races has never been extinguished. His story will also inspire the next generation of travel envoys to continue to set off~www.mtlnovel.com~ Looking up at Gulu with a worried expression in front of him, Su Nian waved his hand , which means don't care.

After panting for a while, he suppressed the surging dead air in his body, looked at Gulu with a serious expression and said:

"Gulu, before this class, I will give you a task that needs to be completed in the future."

"Teacher, tell me."

"Try to investigate the space bracelet that was taken away when I came here. If your strength allows, find a way to take that space bracelet... There is a treasure stored in it. With it, you will gain the faith of our clan The innate ability bestowed by the God of Sealing Chess, gaining incomparable power."

"Of course, safety is the most important thing. If it is very dangerous to seize the space bracelet, continue to practice and accumulate strength until the day when you have the ability to seize the space bracelet without being discovered."

Gulu didn't hesitate at all, and immediately nodded solemnly:

"Teacher, I understand."
