Chapter 315

Ren stepped out of the portal and appeared in a tree-lined path.

This is the Binhai District, located in the northwest of Shenzhen-Hong Kong City. It extends north along the coast, and you can hear the sound of waves not far away. A large area is the residence of nobles and rich people in the city. The environment is beautiful, and the population is not like a business. The area or the docks are so dense, so the portal didn't alarm anyone.

He made a little identification of the direction, led the Ultramarines for a few hundred meters, turned into a quiet street, and saw a large private manor with a tall wall outside.

"It's here."

Ren nodded, and heard someone talking in the manor, so he asked an Ultramarine to knock on the door.

The one who opened the door was a guard in armor. When he saw the Ultramarines, he was stunned for a moment, but instead of panicking, he seemed very happy. While looking at the Ultramarines, he finally landed on Ren, and shouted: "Master, the distinguished guest you mentioned is here!"

There were running footsteps in the manor, and then the door was suddenly opened.

A tall figure ran out eagerly. He was wearing simple civilian clothes, but was held tightly by strong muscles, exuding an extremely powerful aura. It was the legendary Iron Guard Swift.

"Your Excellency the Earl!"

Swift exclaimed with surprise on his face. When Lin Hai died, he thought that Ren was just talking casually, but he didn't expect that he really came.

Ren stepped forward to hug him and said with a smile, "I won't disturb you, will I?"

"How come..." Swift looked flattered, "It's too late to welcome. Your Excellency, please come in quickly."

He bowed and made a gesture of invitation, looking very enthusiastic.

Under the leadership of Swift, a group of people walked into the manor. Ren looked around and had a panoramic view of the layout of the manor at a glance. He admired: "This manor is large enough and beautifully furnished. It should be some years old. , you spent a lot of money, right?"

"You made the earl laugh." Swift sighed with pride on his face, "Almost all the money I have saved through years of hard work has been invested in this manor, in order to give future generations a comfortable home. "

Ren nodded slightly.

The real estate prices in Binhai District are famously expensive in the entire empire. A manor of this size with a superior location is worth at least 30,000 to 40,000 gold shields. not easy.

There are also a large number of servants in the manor, as well as a few extraordinary guards, and it will cost a lot of money to support these people.

Entering the main hall of the villa, a group of teenagers and girls greeted them.

Their appearance is somewhat similar to Swift's, the oldest is seventeen or eighteen years old, and the youngest is only five or six years old. Both men and women are wearing martial arts training uniforms, sweating from their bodies, as if they just came out of the martial arts training ground.

Swift introduced proudly: "My lord, they are all my children."

"so much?"

Ren couldn't help being surprised.

These dozen or so children were obviously not born to the same mother, so it couldn't be seen that Swift was a decent guy on the surface, but he had a harem at home.

"I have no other pursuit in my life. I just want to have a few more children and try my best to cultivate them. I hope one or two good seedlings can be born to pass on my family business." Swift explained a few words and said to the children He raised his face and said, "This is the Earl of Glamorgan from Modu, hurry up and salute."

The older children, who are only two or three years younger than Ryan, already understand the world.

In fact, they had been scrutinizing their father's distinguished guest all the time, and when they heard Swift's words, they all shouted a little cautiously: "I have seen the Earl!"

The younger children imitated their elder brothers and sisters to salute.

For them, the Ultramarine, who was taller and stronger than his father, was more attractive to them, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

"Okay, today's exercise is over early, butler, send them to wash and rest." Swift waved his hand, and immediately, the children cheered and ran away as if they had been liberated.

Only the eldest two eldest sons and eldest daughters left with some reluctance, looking at Ren frequently with excitement.

Entering the study, Swift sighed: "I made the adults laugh."

"No problem."

Ren was a little surprised at first, but soon understood.

There is nothing wrong with Swift's approach. In fact, many grassroots legendary transcendents do the same.

They have gone through untold hardships to be promoted to the legend, and finally broke through their own class and have a place in the upper class. Of course, they want to go further, create a family, pass on their surname and wealth, and gain a firm foothold from then on.

But the existence of the blood soul curse makes all people born equal, and the offspring of extraordinary people and the offspring of ordinary people have the same chance of becoming extraordinary.

Even if more cultivation resources are invested, it can only slightly increase the possibility of passing the first soul transformation.

Of course, there are some rare treasures with better auxiliary effects, but all of them are priceless, and they are definitely not available to ordinary legends, nor can they afford them.

Therefore, the best way is to have more children.

It's like fishing, casting a wide net, giving birth to a dozen or even dozens at a time, and investing corresponding resources in each child. If you're lucky, one or two will succeed. The legendary lifespan is at least three hundred years, and the bloodlines of generations will spread, and the number of descendants of the extraordinary will increase, and a family can be formed.

Of course, it's just an extraordinary person. Whether a new legend can appear depends on whether the goddess of fate favors it.

Ren himself was still very young and hadn't thought about this aspect.

In fact, there is no need to think about it. His goal is not limited to legends. In the future, he will at least strive to enter the holy soul. With the lifespan of a holy soul wizard, as long as he is alive, it doesn't matter whether he has descendants.

"Is your journey back from the Sain Plateau going well?" Ren asked.

"A few battles were encountered, but they were all easily resolved." Swift replied: "We went to Jubile Mountain, and then returned to Shenzhen Hong Kong City by airship. After dealing with those harvests, the team disbanded."

Having said that, he took a meaningful look at Ren, and said with a smile: "Lorena and Sonya have never forgotten your lord, and they often visit my house these days. Do you want to inform them?"

"No need." Ren immediately refused.

Swift thought that Ryan would not be embarrassed to seek sex, so he showed an expression that men could understand, and persuaded him tactfully: "The two of them are actually good women, and there are many soul hunters in Shenzhen and Hong Kong City. Or, Your Excellency the Earl can rest assured..."

"Thank you for your kindness."

Ren remained unmoved.

He had just broken through that relationship with Oxilia, and he was in a sweet period, and he didn't want to provoke other women, so as not to get burned.

Swift sighed secretly in his heart, he could only help them so far, Ren was not interested, and anything else would arouse disgust.

"Let's get down to business." Ren said sternly, "I came to Shenzhen-Hong Kong City to buy a group of slaves. We don't want extraordinary people, just ordinary people. It's best to be an adult male with a healthy body and a clean history."

"Ordinary slaves..." Swift was surprised.

After he returned to Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, he kept thinking about what Rennes had told him. He got to know Rennes better by inquiring about the news from various parties. He guessed the new lord's intentions and prepared to form an extraordinary army of his own. .

Therefore, he spent a few days investigating the slave market in Shenzhen-Hong Kong City and made a detailed report.

But the slaves in his report are all superhumans.

Ren's needs were completely unexpected. How could ordinary slaves form an extraordinary army? Could it be that I guessed wrong, and it is actually for other purposes?

Swift's thoughts changed sharply, and he said with sympathy: "The price of slaves for ordinary people is very low, often seven or eight can be worth the price of an extraordinary person, and the treatment is also very bad, and they are generally absorbed by the trading city-state. sent to mines, plantations, and factories, all of which ended badly."

Ren nodded in understanding.

He is very clear about the cruelty of the slave system. No matter in his previous life or in Elanus, slaves are goods in the eyes of slave owners, and it is almost impossible to treat them normally. Unless they are superhuman slaves with superhuman powers, slave owners dare not abuse them easily even if their status is low, and sometimes they have to support them instead.

The empire had abolished slavery long ago, and all slaves who entered the country would be granted the status of free citizens.

Ren bought slaves and brought them back to the territory, so he naturally became his own territory.

"How many do you want to buy, Lord Earl?" Swift asked.

Ryan had already planned: "Three hundred to four hundred."

"Such a large number of slave transactions are rare in Shenzhen-Hong Kong City. Only the largest slave owners can buy them." Swift thought for a while, "I know a friend who is in the slave business. Among the many slave owners, there is still a conscience, do you want to go now?"

Ren wanted to complain, can a slave owner have a conscience?

He took out the arcane torrent staff, "Tell me where it is, and teleport it directly."

Swift mentioned an address, which was located near a gladiatorial arena at the junction of Shenzhen-Hong Kong City's dock area and commerce.

The Ultramarines heard the noise and came in, ready to go together.

Ren looked at them, and the image of the Ultramarines was too eye-catching, so he said, "Take off your armor and replace it with ordinary armor, and give me Rambo's gun, just bring a giant sword."

After some adjustments, the Ultramarines don't look so garish anymore.

Ren opened the portal, and Swift walked in first.

The other end of the portal is in a certain alley. Someone passed by and was taken aback. Immediately, someone was eager to try and go in. They saw a group of tall and strong barbarians walking out of it, surrounded by a young man who looked like an aristocrat. Pretending not to see, bowed his head and left.

Swift led the way, and soon after, entered the large courtyard behind the arena.

These courtyards are connected to each other and occupy a very large area, but each door is protected by iron fences. The walls more than five meters high are difficult for ordinary people to fly. There are teams of guards patrolling like a heavily guarded building. prison.

Swift is holding a token and can pass without hindrance.

After passing through seven or eight doors, he finally entered a spacious and luxurious hall, and a middle-aged man in a loose robe greeted him. Obviously he had received the news, with a smile on his face.

"Swift, is this the distinguished guest you mentioned earlier?"
