In the south of Distant Harbor City, the Blood Blade Arena.

This famous arena had been named Kang a few days ago because the boss, as a loyal subordinate of the great noble Bill House, not only participated in the action of raising the price of grain, but also led his elite confidants to create unrest in the city and create a chance for his master to escape successfully.

Therefore, he was happy to announce that his entire family would be executed, and he himself would be sentenced to death by a thousand cuts. His body, which had been cut into pieces for three days, would be cut into white bones and hung on the flagpole of the arena.

The arena had been taken over by Sieget, and reconstruction work was in the works. This was because His Highness Kant did not like fighting as a form of entertainment.

” Blood and life shouldn’t be props for a performance.”

That was what he said.

This explanation was widely circulated and caused many people to be puzzled and puzzled.

In their eyes, the Skyquaking Dragon was a very complicated person. He was like an ancient god, with both good and evil sides. He was overly tolerant of the commoners, but he was especially harsh on the nobles. This was the key to why His Highness Kant had attracted criticism from the public. However, in the Far Harbor today, no one dared to question all his decisions.

And today, the sealed arena welcomed the bloodiest and cruelest performance in history.

A large number of wealthy people from the Broken Islands with respectable statuses and noble statuses were swept into pieces in the center of the stage in a short period of time. The scene was incomparably cruel, even more bloody than all the killings that had taken place in the Arena in the past few decades. Corpses were piled up, blood filled the air, and a disgusting smell lingered in the air. It was the smell of sulfur and the terrifying smell of meat.

The sound of vomiting rose and fell.

There was an audience for this performance.

Before they came here, they were dockworkers who worked hard, sailors who did not have any work to go out to sea, bankrupt citizens, idlers who came to try their luck, and farmers who had lost their land…They came from all walks of life, with different backgrounds, occupations, and ages.

But after coming here, they all had the same identity.

A candidate who had signed up to join the army.

Almost all of them were at the bottom of society and had been living a humble and hard life. They did not even think that there was a problem with their lives. They were used to obeying and accepting their fate. They had to bow to gentlemen and lower their heads when they saw adults. It was normal for them to be insulted and beaten by people of high status. It was also normal for them to insult and beat people of the same status or even lower. People were divided into superior and inferior. The reason why the noble were noble was that their blood and soul were naturally superior. He was destined to be high and mighty.

They had always thought so.

But today, they saw the most embarrassed and cowardly side of the nobles and the rich.

They cried and screamed, and their feces and urine flowed out. They fell to the ground and screamed like animals. When these naturally noble people were afraid, they were no different from beggars in the stinking sewers.

When they saw the arrogant and noble old men in the past being as lowly as pigs and dogs, an inexplicable pleasure and brutality surged in the hearts of the small figures. They even had the urge to use their soles, phlegm, and insults to completely trample these “big figures”into the dust.

They laughed, shouted, and cursed, as if they had become noble, while these former big shots had become worse than pigs and dogs. Their positions had been swapped.

Immediately after, they saw an absolute… Equal.

With a loud bang, lightning shot out, and the noble’s body shattered into pieces. Blood and flesh flew everywhere. The audience did not even know what had happened. They only saw the living human lives turned into pieces of meat on the ground.

Life was so fragile, and people could die in such a fragmented manner. It was the same for the noble big shots, and it was also the same for the humble small figures, because everyone’s blood was hot.

They were all living people.

Starting from the first person who vomited, soon, everyone began to vomit. They were terrified, their faces pale, and their bodies trembling. They did not dare to look down again. Some of them even cried out of fear. Among these people, there were sailors who had seen the market. They had seen the hanged pirates, the crew members who had been killed by the entire ship, the rotting corpses, the corpses that had been soaked in the sea, the corpses that had been burned alive, and the corpses that had been dead for a long time.

However, they had never thought that a person could die so cleanly.

As the vomiting and the stench of rotting and sourness spread endlessly, the sliding doors of the audience seats were opened, and majestic black figures appeared.

The rebels held a large number of shovels and threw them to the ground.

Horus ‘awe-inspiring metallic voice rang out.

” Citizens of Distant Harbor, conscripts who have signed up for the army, this is the second round of the selection. Pick up your shovels and enter the center of the arena. Collect the flesh and blood of the criminals and load them back.”

” Your actions, your work, and your efficiency will be recorded throughout the entire process. Those who perform well will be selected and will enter the next selection process. Those who are cunning and cunning will be dismissed, and those who are timid and cowardly will be dismissed. Those who want to quit can leave now. This is the final friendly warning.”

“-think about what you really want.”

Enduring the discomfort in their stomachs, the applicants barely raised their heads.

His pale face revealed a blank and wavering expression.

When they heard that Prince Kant had been enlisted into the army, they came without hesitation. They did not come for loyalty or repayment. Instead, they were thinking about the generous rewards.

His Highness Kant gave them the impression that he was rich, generous, and even a little silly. After he came to the distant harbor, he treated everyone to an unforgettable meal and gave everyone a silver coin. A few days ago, he gave everyone five days ‘worth of food for free.

Such a trustworthy and generous lord was undoubtedly worthy of loyalty and obedience. Working under him would definitely be rewarded generously and promptly, such as amazing delicacies, more money, and affordable food…This was the entire reason why they had come here.

But now, they had witnessed a cruel and bloody scene.

This shocking scene made them suddenly wake up and realize something terrifying. To serve under Lord Kant’s command, it might not be just walking around the city with a sword and shield, and then receiving a generous salary and reward like an outing.

This job was much more dangerous than they had imagined.

Many people were already thinking of retreating.

“Pick up the shovel! Start working! This is the first test!”

Horus’s stern shout came from all directions. His sonorous mechanical voice was extremely awe-inspiring, like the cold words of a blade, causing the hearts of the minor characters to tremble.

However, to them, the blood pool under the arena was like hell. Just looking at the scene was enough to make them feel nauseous, let alone personally stepping into it and collecting flesh and blood.

The roar of steel swept over.

” You shameless b * stards, cunning peasants. I’ve seen through your pathetic hearts. You signed up to join the army just to take advantage of me. If you still have such thoughts, get lost. This is not a place for you to stay!”

“Do you think the glory and rewards of joining the army are so easy to obtain?”

” Free education for your children, remuneration for the entire family to benefit from joining the army, the right to buy unlimited special goods at the internal price, free and sufficient food, a salary higher than the clerk of the Chamber of Commerce, and a future without having to bow to the nobles. Ask yourself, do you deserve the generous remuneration from His Highness Kant, just because you are a bunch of b * stards who faint at the sight of blood?”

“Begin the countdown!”

“I’ll give you weak sissies three minutes to wipe the shit off your mouths and pick up that damn shovel! Listen up, you scumbags. If you can’t even pick up this shovel, then get out now, get out of here, and go back to your homes. You’re only worthy of using your weak hands to support the nobles, whoremasters, gangs, and even other scumbags so that they can go in and out of your mother, wife, and daughter!”

Horus went all out.

He used his father’s elegant speech to humiliate these numb and fanatical, humble and bloodthirsty people.

The so-called wisdom of the people had yet to be developed. These four words contained a lot of anger and hopelessness. A soul could be as noble as a god, but it could also be twisted like maggots. It was not easy to change a person.

If he wanted to change the numb people, he first had to make them not numb.

As long as he wasn’t numb to it, he could become anything.

Because only by not being numb would there be a chance to continue changing.

Numbness was the saddest trait.

“Two minutes left!”

If Kant had not wanted to maintain his dignified persona, he would have personally stepped forward. Horus roared angrily, his voice shaking the entire place.” That’s right! Sissy! Get lost! Very good! Someone had already picked up a shovel!

I know you! Seaman Batiste of the Autumn Wind Wave!”

“Remember it! Today, you picked up a shovel to shovel the corpses of the garbage who manipulated the price of grain and tried to starve the civilians to death. Tomorrow, you can pick up a machine gun and make the so-called nobles who are like these scumbags kneel in front of you and repent desperately. You will do the same thing to them today!”

” At that time, you will become a sharp blade that carries out and implements His Highness Kant’s will. You will become a soldier or general that the entire world respects! At this moment, these sissies around you who have peed their pants will look at you with envy and distortion in the future. At that time, these trash are only worthy of being prostitutes for their wives and daughters! Or do you only know how to kneel in front of the nobles and stick your butt out!”

More and more people picked up the shovels on the ground with pale faces.

“F * ck.”

Thick phlegm was spat on the ground. The burly man with a twisted scar on his face threw the shovel in his arms to the people behind him.” We’re all going to die. What’s the difference?”

His name was Massimos, the former star gladiator of this arena.

These gladiators, whose lives were bought and whose sole purpose was to please the audience and earn money for their boss, had also changed factions after the arena changed owners and became Kant’s private property. Yes, although Goethe had abolished slavery, these gladiators were no different from slaves due to the restrictions of their contracts. To them, death was the beginning of freedom.

After Kant heard the report about them, he did not wave his hand and set the gladiators free with the spirit of equality and freedom and a strong sense of justice of modern people.

After all, the three views of these guys had gradually been obliterated and numbed in the long battles. They were indifferent to life and death and even lost some of their emotions. Due to the nature of the gladiators ‘profession, they did not have the habit of saving money. Besides killing, they did not have any other specialty. Returning these gladiators who had nothing but killing to freedom and letting them return to society would only bring many unstable factors to Far Harbor.

By then, these killing machines that had regained their freedom would cause trouble for various reasons in a few days. In the end, they would commit a serious crime and be arrested by the court for shooting.

What was the meaning of this freedom and freedom apart from self-satisfaction?

Therefore, under Kant’s instructions, these gladiators who were destined to lose their jobs were given two options. The first was to learn how to farm and work for His Highness Kant for ten years. After ten years, they would be free and could earn a sum of money or twenty acres of land to live freely.

The second was to join the army. Under strict discipline and command, they would continue to display their combat skills through obedience and loyalty. They would serve as honorable soldiers with freedom and enjoy all the privileges and benefits of ordinary soldiers, as well as the security arrangements after retirement.

Almost all the gladiators chose the latter without hesitation.

As a former star gladiator and the spiritual leader of these gladiators, Massimos had a high prestige. Although he was also shocked by the gory scene of execution and the efficiency of the killing tools, as a gladiator who was used to seeing blood and death, he recovered the fastest.

“The target of this punishment is probably not the profiteers of the Broken Islands, but us.”

With a shovel in hand, he brought his men to the field with ease. He scooped up a piece of burnt meat and threw it into the cart beside him.

Although the scene of blood and flesh flying was cruel, in Massimos ‘eyes, it was very merciful.

It should be known that the kings and lords of various countries had their own unique and endless ways of torturing the criminals. This was especially true for the criminals who had committed the most heinous crimes. They had to make the criminals wail in endless pain and despair for days and nights before they died. On the other hand, with a flash of fire, the flesh and blood of the prisoners were shattered. The death of the prisoners was only an instant. What pain was there to speak of?

Beheading with a knife, stabbing the heart with a spear, and breaking into pieces with an alchemical weapon were all death sentences that could be ended in an instant. What was the difference between the three?

” But to us spectators, it’s different…”

” I’ll be back soon.” He shoved the torso and half of his face into the car. His body trembled as he suppressed the urge to vomit.” The days ahead will probably be very exciting.”

“Leader, what does this mean?” A young gladiator held his breath as he shoveled the bones.” Wonderful?”

” That’s right. His Highness Kant isn’t a bloodthirsty tyrant. Why must he let us prospective recruits watch this execution?” Massimos replied,” The reason is obvious. In the future, we will use that kind of alchemy weapon to beat the enemy into this state. His Highness wants us to get used to it now-”

“Is that so?”

” We have a chance to control that alchemy weapon?” the young gladiator asked in surprise. That was much more useful than a magic staff! In this way, no enemy will be our match!”

Massimos sneered.

“Naive.” He whispered,” The enemy that needs to be fought with that kind of weapon…”

“What?” The other party did not hear him clearly.

“No, it’s nothing.” The star gladiator shook his head.” Work hard, young man. It’s not far.”

“Not far from what?”

“The footsteps of war.”

Macimos stared at the flesh and blood before him. These were the corpses of the nobles and merchants of the Broken Islands. Declaring their crimes and executing them in the cruelest way represented a certain will of His Highness Kant. As a former soldier, the gladiator heard a familiar voice.

“Listen…”

“This is the sound of war,” he whispered.

A mournful wail sounded in the distance. He raised his head and saw the purple-robed man who hadn’t been killed from the beginning to the end being dragged into a small house by two puppet arms.

Inside the house, Kant watched the struggling Job and smiled faintly.

“Don’t be afraid.” He said,” I have to give you a ticket.”

” Father, the preliminary selection has been completed. I’ve listed the candidates who performed well. The next selection and training plan is being formulated.”

Kant extended his hand, and a purple crystal shone between his fingers. A mechanical arm picked it up and extended it toward Job, who was still struggling and wailing.

“Alright.” The Skyquaking Dragon said calmly,” It’s time to deliver the package.”

“The teleportation beacon is in place,” Horus replied.

Under the collective labor of the prospective recruits who endured the disgust, the flesh and blood of the criminals were knocked into small carts along with the sticky soil. Then, they were transported to the inside of the arena. There was a huge container there. Balls of flesh and body parts were poured into it. Finally, there was a wailing sound.

The door slammed shut.

Kant came before the container and extended his hand.

Black light flashed, and the Realm Gate opened.

In the Golden Bay dock area of the distant port, the envoys from the Broken Islands looked at the fanatical city uneasily. They heard the confession of Luther and the others on the broadcast, as well as the fanatical roars and shouts of the distant port citizens. The wind of war blew over the city. Lord Job, who had gone to Tidal Manor, had not returned for a long time. The three ships were closely monitored by the rebels. They were already under house arrest.

Inquiring and probing were fruitless, and uneasiness was quietly growing.

“Look!”

Suddenly, someone cried out in alarm. All the frustrated crew members looked in that direction.

Under the bright sun, the tides surged, and a dark door opened in the void. At the same time, the silver Valkyrie warship roared and moved. The sound waves surged, cutting through the waves and rushing forward. It rushed into the Realm Gate and disappeared in the vast expanse of blue waves!

” Where did she go?!”

Broken Islands, the sky was clear and the blue waves were high!
