Mechanical God Emperor
chapter-221

221 – Katherine

Yang Feng said with a bright smile: “As you may know, the thing the Miracle City lacks the most is people. Hereafter, whoever brings 500 slaves, can buy a vial of potion. Of course, you’ll also receive a satisfactory compensation for the slaves. I will never let you leave empty-handed.”

The middle-aged merchant from the Titanic Empire, who purchased 2 magic swords for 300,000 gold coins each, rose and said, “Master Ian, I’m going back to organize some goods. You won’t be disappointed!”

Yang Feng smiled and said, “I can also guarantee you that you won’t be disappointed!”

“Master Ian, rest assured, I’m going back and organize some goods!”

“Yes, I’m also going back to organize some goods!”

“…”

The merchants who came from all over were very excited and shouted loudly.

Thus, the banquet ended on a high note.

“Amazing, just 5 magic swords have earned over 2.5 million gold coins. Master, you’re really amazing.” In a room, Lina stood behind Yang Feng, massaged his shoulders, and said with an expression of adoration.

Over 2.5 million gold coins, this was definitely a huge sum. It was more than enough to purchase the slaves and supplies the Rydgex City’s joint caravan brought this time, and there was still a lot of surplus.

Yang Feng smiled faintly and said, “How much were the plots of land sold for?”

Lina looked at Yang Feng with adoration and said softly, “They were sold for a total of 21,68 million gold coins.”

The empty plots with merely a sign inserted on them were sold for so many gold coins, this left Lina in disbelief. After all, that land used to be worthless.

Yang Feng sighed regretfully, saying: “Unfortunately, the sales are low! This price is still a bit low!”

If it wasn’t for the sake of quickly attracting more merchants to stay in the Miracle City, Yang Feng would never have sold those plots so easily. Real estate was a very lucrative business.

Lina’s eyelids jumped up and she was speechless. In her eyes, the price tag on those plots of land was already astonishing. Yet according to Yang Feng’s tone of voice, they were still sold cheaply. She was left in disbelief.

Yang Feng’s eyes flashed with a strange glint and he thought: “I have a lot of gold coins. Beside, the time is approaching. I should begin the preparations for the next step.”

50 kilometers to the west of the Miracle City, underneath a flat tract of red earth. There, a very spacious, 100-meter-deep underground base was excavated and built.

The underground base was covered in a variety of mysterious runes specialized in blocking all kinds of probing. Even though god rank experts were powerful, but without using their embodiments to personally investigate this place with their divine power, they wouldn’t be able to see though this underground base.

Inside the 100-meter-deep underground was built a level-1 portable fortified stronghold.

Although the mechanical legion couldn’t appear on the Feisuo Plane, but what Yang Feng required was the tremendous computing power of the portable fortified stronghold’s optical computer and its ability to synthesize all kinds of elixirs.

Yang Feng reclined in a chair in the core control room of the portable fortified stronghold and looked up into the air.

Midair, the images of very pretty, female half blood beastmen flashed constantly. Underneath the images of the half blood beastmen were their resumes.

The corners of Yang Feng's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile: “Looking at the available information, I choose her!”

The projection midair set on a blonde and blue-eyed figure with a pair of lion ears and a very beautiful countenance. Her beautiful eyes ignited with flames of perseverance and fury made her look even more unforgettable.

At the junction of the Red Earth Wasteland and the beastman empire was the Casama Region.

Casama, in the Feisuo Plane’s beastman language meant hybrid. This place was contemptuously called the hybrid area by the beastmen.

The Casama Region was very barren. It only produced some sour berries and unpalatable potatoes and roots.

The people living in the the Casama Region were half blood beastmen who had the blood of humans and beastmen mixed within.

In fact, half blood beastmen were a product of tragedy. Whenever the 2 human empires invaded the territory of the beastman empire, they would plunder many beastman beauties; whenever the army of the beastman empire invaded the territory of the human empires, they were equally ruthless, plundering many human beauties.

Half blood beastmen, people who were born under such tragic circumstances, weren’t regarded as compatriots by neither humans or beastmen, but as filthy and sinful existences.

According to the customs of the beastman empire, once half blood beastmen were born, they would be directly discarded in the Casama Region.

The half blood beastmen in the Casama Region would silently accept the newborn half blood beastmen as their compatriots.

As if cursed by the gods, the offsprings born from the union of half blood beastmen and other races were also half blood beastmen. They were treated with contempt and even hostility by many races on the Feisuo Plane.

Behind a hillside in the Casama Region, a blonde and blue-eyed, about 1.85 meters tall, 16 or 17 years old half blood beastman girl waved a wooden sword in her hands. She had a golden ponytail, a pair of peaks that threatened to burst out through her clothing, slender and beautiful legs, and gorgeous looks. He also had a heroic air about her and a pair of lion ears on her head.

Drops of sweat slowly dripped to the ground from the forehead of the half blood beastman girl. Sweat nearly completely permeated her clothes. Even so, she didn’t slack off and practiced basic sword art. Even though the sword art was incomplete, yet she still didn’t give up on it. Hacking, stabbing, chopping…, each move was executed very earnestly and was capable to put many martial arts practitioners to shame.

Suddenly, the complexion of the half blood beastman girl turned pale, her breathing staggered, and she coughed out a mouthful of blood onto the ground.

That sword art was incomplete. While practicing the incomplete sword art too assiduously, the half blood beastman girl injured herself unwittingly.

It was very difficult to succeed in cultivation without the guidance of a great teacher.

At the time, although Yang Feng had the inheritance of the Black Cottage, yet he still went to the trouble of traveling a great distance and racked his brain on how to join the Warlock College Antalya in order to get the guidance from a great teacher as well as large amounts of cultivation resources.

A 12 or 13 years old half blood beastman girl with cat ears rushed over. The little girl looked emaciated, her thin limbs looked as if they could be easily broken. With a look of terror on her face, the little girl said frantically: “Katherine, it’s bad! A lot of wolf cavalrymen came to our village to kill!!”

Katherine’s face turned pale, her eyes flashed with endless fury, and she gritted her teeth, saying, “The wolf cavalrymen! The winter hunt has started so soon? These bastards!!”

The so-called winter hunt entailed the beastmen of the beastman empire going to the Casama Region from time to time in winter in order to carry out a clean-up. They would plunder the food of half blood beastmen and capture their beauties for their enjoyment or to sell them to human slaves merchants in exchange for a variety of goods.

Because many of the half blood beastmen were descendants of good-looking man an beautiful women, their looks generally weren’t bad. Although they weren’t as good-looking as elves, but the proportion of beautiful women was much higher than that of humans. Half blood beastman female slaves were very popular among humans.

Neither the beastman empire nor human empire considered half blood beastmen as their compatriots. As such, alike like chopping vegetables, they had no scruples killing half blood beastmen.

Katherine’s eyes burned with fury and she said, “Little Kitty, stay here. I’m going to try save Aunt Gina and the others!!”

Before Little Kitty could reply, Katherine firmly clasped her only weapon – the wooden sword – and rushed out from behind the hillside.

Katherine quickly reached the mountain village she resided in.

At this moment, there were huge wolves going on a rampage inside the mountain village. Many of the huge wolves were biting large chunks out of half blood beastmen. Blood sprinkled about. The entire mountain village was flooded with screams and cries.

The wolfmen, a subspecies of beastmen, dragged female half blood beastmen around the mountain village, and laughed wildly and humiliated them.

“Bastards!” When Katherine saw the tragic scene, a fury welled up inside her. She wielded her a wooden sword and stabbed towards a wolfman warrior.

“Ha-ha, there’s a beautiful chick here, we made it big this time!! We’ll have food for the winter if we sell her!” The wolfman warrior had superior Warrior rank cultivation base. His eyes lit up, he laughed out loud and sent Katherine’s wooden sword flying with a maneuver from the scimitar in his hand. Then, he grabbed her by the head and pushed her to the ground.

No matter how she struggled, Katherine couldn’t free herself from the wolfman warrior.

“A lionman half blood beastman, ha-ha! Maybe there were royalty among your parents! I can’t help myself, I’m going to mount you! I’ve already played with a half blood beastmen with royal bloodline!! Still, you may be the daughter of some prince or princess!!”

The wolfman warrior smiled malevolently and began to tear apart Katherine’s clothes. His eyes were filled with undisguised lust.

“Why! Why are the gods doing this to us half blood beastmen!! Why? We didn’t do anything wrong! We didn’t chose to be born in this world! Why, why are you doing this to us!!” Katherine’s eyes were bloodshot and she wailed. Two rows of bloody tears flowed from her courageous and resolute eyes, illustrating that her grief and indignation reached the extreme.

As far as Katherine could remember, such hell-like scenes had constantly been repeating. It filled her heart with deep, growing sorrow. Now, she was nearly despairing.
