222 – In this World, No One Is Born a Slave
“Good child, you half blood beastmen did nothing wrong. The wrong is that you half blood beastmen have no god protecting you!” With a sigh, Yang Feng – covered in a sacred light – stepped out of the void and walked over midair. He looked like the embodiment of a god treading in the secular world.
When Katherine saw Yang Feng come out of thin air, it was like she saw a ray of hope in the deepest part of darkness and despair.
The wolfman warrior’s eyes flashed with graveness. He threw Katherine aside, faced upwards, and issued a howl: “Enemy attack, the enemy is a human Wizard!”
The wolfman warrior had just issued the howl, when Yang Feng took a step forward and appeared directly in front of the other party. A sword ray flashed at the neck of the wolfman warrior.
“Such a fast sword!” This was the last thought that flashed through the mind of the wolfman warrior before his head flew up into the air and his hot blood sprayed about.
The blood that sprayed towards Yang Feng was ricocheted after touching the life force cover around him, not letting a single drop of blood taint him.
The wolf cavalrymen were seasoned elites. After hearing their comrade’s warning, they immediately picked up their weapons and ran towards their battle wolves.
Yang Feng snapped his fingers and, just like raindrops, the level-0 spell Arcane Projectiles blasted towards the heads of the wolf cavalrymen.
As if being hit by a heavy hammer, the wolf cavalrymen hit in the head by the level-0 spell Arcane Projectiles bled from the orifices on their heads and tumbled to the ground.
The eyes of a dozen huge wolves flickered with vicious glints, their figures flashed, and they madly pounced at Yang Feng.
When the dozen huge wolves appeared before him, Yang Feng figure shook and he advanced instead of retreating. He rushed into the crowd of wolves and slashed at them with the secret treasure sword, which was forged entirely from divine blood iron, in his hand.
When added a dozen grams of divine blood still, an ordinary fine still sword could already slice iron as if butter. The secret treasure sword forged entirely from divine blood steel was even sharper. Wherever the sword rays, as if tofu, the hard bones of the huge wolves were easily sliced through.
The sword rays interwove and the dozen huge wolves turned into numerous pieces, and blood sprayed about.
“So strong! Is he a god that came to our rescue?” Katherine’s beautiful eyes reflected Yang Feng’s figure and her mind was filled with excitement and worship. In her still rather tender mind, Yang Feng was a top powerhouse in the world, no different from a god.
When the wolf cavalrymen saw that Yang Feng’s strength was really terrifying, they immediately whistled, mounted their huge wolves, and fled every which way.
Yang Feng creased his eyebrows when saw the wolf cavalrymen flee, then cast a Web and caught 8 of the most ferocious wolf cavalrymen before stopping the pursuit.
The greatest advantage of the wolf cavalrymen was their high maneuverability. If they saw that they couldn’t win, they would choose to flee. It was very difficult to wipe them out.
Katherine got up onto her feet and stared at Yang Feng. She hesitated for a moment, then clenched her teeth and asked, “Sir Wizard, have you come to capture us?”
Over the past years, the people who appeared in the Casama Region were either human slave hunters or savage troops of beastmen winter hunting. Katherine asked this sentence with some fear.
She knelt in front of Yang Feng, a glint of determination flashed past her beautiful eyes, and she entreated: “If you want to capture someone, then capture me! I can be your slave or your experimental subject. Just please, let the others in the village go.”
Yang Feng looked at the sensible half blood beastman girl who was willing to sacrifice herself, sighed lightly, reached out with his hand, and helped her get up: “Good child, get up. I’m not here to capture you. I, Ian, am just a Wizard who pursues the truth and walks on the path to godhood.”
“If you want to gain strength and knowledge to protect your people; if you want for half blood beastmen to no longer be humiliated, to no longer be called hybrids by others, and to be able to lead dignified lives on this land, then come see me there tonight!” Yang Feng pointed and a ray of light entered Katherine’s forehead, directly imprinting information into her mind.
He handed her the sword forged from divine blood steel in his hand. Then, his body collapsed, turned into moths of light, and disappeared.
Katherine looked absent-minded when she saw Yang Feng disappear from in front of her eyes. If it wasn’t for the sword in her right hand, she would have thought that everything was just a figment of her imagination.
Katherine’s eyes nearly spat flames of anger when her gaze fell on the 8 wolf cavalrymen bound by Web and she strode over.
At this time, dozens of half blood beastman survivors gathered and stared at the 8 wolf cavalrymen with eyes full of hatred and fear.
A wolf cavalryman entwined by the Web widened his eyes and threatened fiercely: “Motherfuckers! Release me immediately, you fucking hybrids! If anything happens to me in this village, the Copper Wolf Tribe will send a troop to slaughter everyone in your village! Even the dozen surrounding villages will be implicated! Release us and we can still spare your lives.”
The eyes of the dozens of half blood beastman survivors flashed with fear. Many villages were slaughtered by the brutal Copper Wolf Tribe. Some of the present half blood beastmen were fugitives from villages that were slaughtered.
A plain-looking middle-aged man with dog ears hesitated for a moment and said: “Let’s release these Sirs!”
Another half blood beastman with wolf ears hesitated and said very unwillingly: “Yes! Let’s release them!”
The eyes of a rather good-looking young woman with cat ears flashed with hatred and she screamed: “We can’t let them go! Let’s kill them! These bastards had their wolves eat my husband and child! I want these bastards to pay for what they did with their lives! I’ll never let these bastards off! Are you still men?! These scum bullied and humiliated our women and had their wolves eat our people!! And you still want to release them?!! Are you still men, are you still people?!”
Hearing the young, cat-eared woman shot herself hoarse, the half blood beastmen lowered their heads and their eyes flashed with shame and helplessness.
With tears streaming from his eyes, the middle-aged man with dog ears nearly roared: “People??!! Are we half blood beastmen still regarded as people? Everyone in this world only regards us half blood beastmen as slaves, as born slaves! I also want to be a person with dignity! However, we are born slaves, this is our fate!! You want to implicate the dozens of us, the dozen villages and the hundreds of people so you can vent? Those that died are already dead, but we still have to live!!!”
Many half blood beastmen wept when they heard the tragic truth. They also wanted to be people, live with dignity. But the Feisuo Plane rejected them. The whole world thought of them as hybrids, as born slaves. They didn’t had the power to resist, even if they wanted to.
No one would teach half blood beastmen magic or martial knowledge. Without knowledge or inheritance, they could only fall behind. They didn’t even have the power to resist.
A wolf cavalrymen trapped in the Web spat out a mouthful of saliva and sneered: “Ptooey! Lowly slaves will always be lowly slaves!”
“No! In this world, no one is born a slave! As long as we don’t think of ourselves as slaves, then we’ll never be slaves! These scum must die!” Katherine, with the sword forged from the divine blood steel in her hand, came over from the side. She took a step forward, brandished her sword, and slashed at the wolf cavalryman.
With the flash of a sword ray, the wolf cavalryman, who was very arrogant just a moment ago, was sliced in two. His sinister face showed a trace of shock. He didn’t expect to be killed by Katherine, a half blood beastman.
Before anyone could react, Katherine wielded her sword and slaughtered the 8 wolf cavalrymen. Blood gushed out of the wolf cavalrymen and sprinkled all over her, making her look like a war goddess brimming with a heroic, bloody, and monstrous aura who killed her way out of a sea of blood.
With a terrified expression on his face and his body shivering, the middle-aged half blood beastman with dog ears knelt on the ground and criticized in grief and indignation: “Katherine, you killed them! You actually killed them!! We’re finished, we’re finished! It’s the end, we’re dead! We’re dead!! We cannot resist the Copper Wolf Tribe, at all. That human Wizard won’t be always here. He saved us just in the spur of the moment, just for the moment! But he didn’t save us forever! For a moment of satisfaction, you killed these 8 wolfmen, yet at the same time, you have laid the groundwork for the destruction of our village."
Seeing this, the half blood beastmen were both delighted and frightened. They were at a loss. From their perspective, they naturally wanted to kill the 8 cruel wolf cavalrymen, but the thought of the consequences from killing the 8 wolf cavalrymen terrified them.
Katherine’s eyes shone and she barked: “Have you ever wondered why we half blood beastmen are this miserable, are regarded as born slaves, and can be arbitrarily hunted and killed as if livestock?”
The half blood beastmen went silent. They had been pondering over this question since they were born, yet had not come to any conclusion.
Katherine shouted: “That’s because we half blood beastmen have no god of our own, no god to protect us! That’s why we are being bullied and humiliated! Not long ago, a great god was finally willing to take pity on us half blood beastmen and sent an emissary to help us! The human Wizard is a divine emissary sent by a great god to rescue us half blood beastmen!!”
