Chapter 189 Auction in progress
The main street of the Royal City of Pentelies is also an important part of the Expo.
People from all over the world and the Great Route gather here to enjoy the world's top feast, taste rare delicacies, and witness unprecedented performances.
Most people here are ordinary people, because those who have a little ability have gone to the seven sky islands above the sky, which is where the essence of the Expo lies.
There is the Sky Arena, Qinghai's No. 1 auction, fine wines prepared by the world's top bartenders, the extravagant and luxurious Happy Street, and an underground casino where one can go bankrupt with just one smile.
What attracted all the attention of the sea at this time was the "auction" that shocked the world!
It is called an auction, but it has developed to the point where it is more like a slave trade exhibition.
From the long-armed tribe, giant tribe, snake-headed tribe, dwarf tribe, and even mermaids and fishmen, they were sent to the auction one after another. This kind of action, which was open to the whole world, completely plunged the world into endless turmoil.
……
Elbaf, the royal court of the giants.
The giant king was furious. Although there had been auctions of giant slaves in the past, they were all shady and unofficial activities and no one dared to bluff.
But what about now?
The dignity of the giants was trampled upon and humiliated unprecedentedly.
Prince Loki was targeted on the spot and fainted.
The giant elder said in a deep voice:
"Leon Lex is deceiving us."
The giant prophet had a head full of white hair and said in a hoarse voice:
"He invited my people to the World Expo, but never told us that he would auction off my people. This is a provocation, but I, your king, cannot act rashly. Although I don't want to admit it, Elbaf's power is no match for Rex..."
The prophet's calm wisdom once again pulled Elbaf back from the brink of losing control at the critical moment, and the giant king gradually calmed down:
"...How do you think we should deal with this situation?"
The Giant Prophet Elder continued:
"I wonder if my king still remembers the promise we made?"
"Oh? The one with Joey Boy-senpai?"
The giant king's expression moved slightly.
"That's right. The agreed time is not far away. For giants like us, thirty years is just a blink of an eye. The conspiracy of the World Government and evildoers like Rex will be broken by then! The glory of Nika will be sown on the branches of the Adam Tree again."
Hearing these words, all the older giant elders present were excited, and had some expectations for the future.
As we all know, there are some long-lived species in the world of pirates, and the giants are one of them.
The 800 years of change in the outside world were nothing more than the change of two or three generations in Elbaf.
They didn't even need the guidance of historical texts, but only relied on word of mouth from their elders to pass down the agreement made by liberation fighter Joey Boy.
The Giant Prophet Elder continued:
"No matter how strong Leon Lex is, he is just a mortal. How can he compete with the power of God? The glory of Nika is beyond his imagination! He doesn't even know what Nika is. He just thinks that he can balance Qinghai by relying on the brutality of pirates. How stupid!~"
When the giant king heard these words, he immediately felt relieved and looked very pleased.
"Yeah, but he's just a 20-year-old kid, which is like a baby in my giant tribe."
"Instead of getting angry, I, Wang Shengming, should gather my strength and investigate how those giants fell into Lex's hands... Actually, there is one thing... I still cannot understand - I don't recognize any of the giants at the auction. Even those in the giant tribes scattered around the world, I know one or two of them, but these 150 giants are all strangers. There must be something fishy going on."
The giant king raised his eyebrows slightly:
"Oh? That's true. Goatbeard, go investigate this matter and make sure you find out where those giants came from."
He went on to order:
"Longzi, take your men out to sea and do everything you can to inform your compatriots who are scattered everywhere to reduce the frequency of going out to sea, stop showing off, protect yourself, and wait for the right opportunity."
In fact, in this ocean, Elbaf is only the largest gathering place of giants.
In addition, there are also small gathering places such as the West Sea Giant Village and the North Sea Giant Tribe.
There are even giants like the blue demon Dongli and the red demon Broki who are stranded in the small garden (the ancient island).
The power of the giants is extremely strong.
The Judicial Island, one of the three major subordinate agencies of the World Government, has two Titans serving as gatekeepers.
There are also giant vice admirals in the navy, and naturally in the army as well.
Even so, some giants were still sold as slaves.
In fact, this is not limited to giants, all living beings are equal.
Equally powerful, equally likely to die, equally humble.
As long as they are strong enough, regardless of race, they can dominate a region. The kind ones will protect their people, while the evil ones will burn, kill and loot.
As long as you are weak, it doesn't matter what race you are, whether you are a giant, a mermaid, or even an ordinary person, you will "unfortunately" become a slave and be sent to the auction house.
This is the cruel sea.
