Wuxia: The Super Slave Master

Page 277

After the system finished speaking, a list appeared, which included things like the College of Winterhold.

Luo Chen's skills and martial arts techniques returned at this time, though not by much, but enough to get him out of here.

With a thought, Luo Chen produced a long sword in his hand. Larov was not surprised at all when he saw the long sword that suddenly appeared in Luo Chen's hand.

"I didn't expect you to be so skilled. You're a summoner, right?"

Luo Chen smiled awkwardly, which was considered an agreement with Larov. Larov patted Luo Chen on the shoulder: "Alright, let's not waste any more time. Let's go see what we can equip ourselves with!"

Larov found a set of equipment for himself and, seeing how thinly dressed Luo Chen was, said, "We'll be going on another adventure later. We might encounter some cold places underground. You should pass this set of clothes on!"

After saying that, he took out a set of clothes. The set of clothes looked exactly like the one Larov was wearing now. Luo Chen didn't stand on ceremony, took it directly, and put it on.

After the two finished packing, they went straight up the stairs. Just then, the cells behind them began to collapse, and Luo Chen could clearly hear a dragon's roar coming from above.

However, the dragon's roar could no longer affect Luo Chen in the slightest. Luo Chen continued to walk forward, and several imperial soldiers who were warming themselves by the fire seemed to have heard the sound and turned their heads.

"Who are you?"

Then they noticed Luo Chen's clothes, and the leading officer shouted, "Oh no, this is one of the Stormcloaks!"

As they spoke, they all drew their weapons and charged directly at Luo Chen. At the same time, Luo Chen also charged at them. It seemed as if everything was going smoothly. Luo Chen dodged all their attacks with just a few dodges.

He went straight to the back of the Imperial soldiers' heads, swung his sword down, and the heads of those soldiers flew off one after another.

Even now, looking at his own hands, Luo Chen couldn't believe what had just happened.

Chapter 196 A Huge Spider

Larov found the key on one of the Imperial soldiers, and swung it around, saying smugly to Luo Chen, "Now we don't need to go through all that trouble to pick the lock!"

Luo Chen smiled along with him. Luo Chen greatly admired Larov in front of him. Whether in the carriage or now, he always had a "dead pig doesn't care about boiling water" attitude.

Sometimes, Luo Chen seriously doubted whether this guy was an idiot, otherwise how could he be so heartless?

Luo Chen arrived at a place resembling an interrogation room, where several imperial soldiers looked over at the same time.

However, some people were still tied up in those small wooden cages. Luo Chen walked over, intending to release them, but unexpectedly, a bolt of lightning struck in front of him, and faint wisps of smoke rose from the cages.

Luo Chen looked into the distance and saw a figure wearing a black cloak.

"You traitors to the empire, you all deserve to dwell in hell, and today I will send you all there!"

After speaking, Luo Chen became alert, because this person had just summoned lightning. Luo Chen held his longsword and was about to swing it down when Larov, who had somehow circled around behind him, pounced on him.

Larov rode behind him and twisted his ear. The man in black screamed in pain, and it was this scream that alerted a squad of Imperial soldiers, who began to charge towards Luo Chen and his group. Seeing the situation was bad, Luo Chen rushed forward, covered the man's mouth, and quietly slashed his neck with his longsword.

A spurt of blood sprayed directly onto Luo Chen's face. Larov smiled at Luo Chen: "This is the result of being preoccupied with talking during a battle."

While Larov was busy talking, Luo Chen arrived at the door and tightly closed it, while the Imperial soldiers kept banging on the door in front of them.

Larov, who was searching around the wall, discovered a pull ring. After pulling the ring, the wall began to move, and a section of stone quietly descended. Larov was the first to step inside.

Luo Chen followed closely behind, then twisted a button behind the stone, and the stone wall closed again.

With a loud bang, the interrogation room door was kicked open, and a man walked in, looking around and touching the bloodstains on the table.

"They're gone!"

All the imperial soldiers lowered their heads, and at that moment, Hadawa stepped forward.

All the soldiers were filled with awe upon seeing Hadawada. That's how the Imperials are; if they see their comrade accomplish something great, they will earn everyone's respect, regardless of his rank. Hadawada, who survived a dragon, naturally earned everyone's admiration; they certainly didn't have that kind of confidence.

Hadawa nodded: "There's nothing we can do about their escape. Let's go back and report this matter, and let the lord decide for himself!"

Everyone stood at attention and shouted "Yes!" in unison. Hadawa thought to himself, "Luochen, I hope you can get along peacefully on your own in the future."

After thinking it over, Hadawa turned around and led the imperial soldiers away.

After passing through the iron gate, Luo Chen and Larov arrived at the entrance of a cave. Larov took out a map from his pocket, which he must have obtained from the soldier earlier.

After looking at the map, Larov said, "We'll keep going forward. We should see a river not far ahead. Once we cross the river, we can leave this awful place!"

The two continued walking forward. Fortunately, Larov had a torch on him, otherwise Luo Chen would not know how he would have been able to get through such a dark cave. As they walked, suddenly a lot more spider webs appeared.

Larov chuckled and said, "Don't worry, after all, spiders are one of the three major specialties of our Skyrim province, aren't they?"

"What the heck?!" Luo Chen asked. "So what are the other two specialties?"

Hearing Luo Chen's question, Larov stopped in his tracks, his voice becoming low and deep: "I'll tell you in a secret, the other two specialties are ghosts and ghouls!"

Luo Chen patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, your joke isn't funny at all!"

Larov's expression didn't change in the slightest. He said very seriously, "I'm not joking with you. If you don't believe me, go and try venturing into those tombs. You'll definitely be lucky enough to encounter them!"

"Is it really that terrifying?" Luo Chen thought to himself as he continued walking forward. At the same time, several imperial soldiers were about to pass through the cave. When they saw the newcomer, they turned around nervously. However, they were not carrying torches, and one of them had a slightly blackened face. If Luo Chen was not mistaken, this guy was probably poisoned!

One of the Imperial soldiers gave Luo Chen a cold laugh: "Brother, judging from their appearance, they should have quite a few treasures in their hands."

As he spoke, he pointed to the bulging sack at Larov's waist. Several soldiers surrounded Luo Chen, who took two steps forward: "Can't we all get along peacefully? The way out is not far from here. There's no need for that."

"Haha, but if we get what you have, we'll definitely be able to get out, so you should give us that chance to leave!"

After saying that, several people rushed towards Luo Chen and his group. Luo Chen took out his long sword and cut down the people in front of him in a few strokes. Larov picked up something from one of the people's hands.

"They told us not to go out, but now who's the one who can't go out?!"

The man seemed about to say something, but then revealed a sinister smile: "Anyway, none of you will make it out alive!"

After speaking, the man breathed his last. He walked through the cave and came to a short river. Larov and Luo Chen had just crossed it when suddenly something seemed to fall from the sky. Larov's eyes widened, unable to react. Luo Chen immediately rushed towards him.

Chapter 197 Qingxi Town

Luo Chen and Larov tumbled around for at least several rounds before finally stopping.

Larov sat up on Luo Chen's body, a position that, for some reason, exuded an unbearable awkwardness.

"Wow, I'm still alive! Hey, what's that thing down there?!"

Luo Chen patted his hand: "Hey, bro, can't you just relax for a bit?"

Larov looked down at himself and instantly understood what Luo Chen was talking about. He tried to stand up, but Luo Chen saw a huge spider about to slash at Larov. So he grabbed Larov and pulled him onto his chest.

At the same time, he punched the spider's eye. Luo Chen's fist was more powerful than he had imagined. The fist broke through the spider's eye and entered its body.

A sticky sensation came from her hand. Luo Chen withdrew her hand, took a sniff, and a foul stench emanated from it.

"Damn, this spider stinks!" Luo Chen withdrew his hand. Just then, several spiders descended from the sky. As soon as they landed, they ran towards the large spider. Larov stood up and nudged Luo Chen with his elbow.

"Brother, it seems you just killed their leader!"

Luo Chen nodded: "Now I understand!"

"It seems like they're coming to avenge their family!"

Luo Chen nodded again: "I know that too!"

"Okay, I have some things to take care of at home, so I'll leave these spiders to you!"

Unexpectedly, Larov turned out to be so unreliable. Later, while chatting at his house, Luo Chen learned that Larov had a deep fear of spiders, which is the legendary spider phobia.

After saying that, Larov ran off to the other side. Luo Chen looked at the few little spiders in front of him and thought, "I can easily deal with your father, let alone you little guys!"

Thinking of this, Luo Chen made a provocative gesture towards the little spiders. As if provoked, the spiders pounced on Luo Chen. Luo Chen rushed forward and kicked one of the little spiders. With his other hand, he quickly drew the Heaven-Destroying Sword and slashed off the long leg of another spider. The other two little spiders seemed to be crouching on the ground and pounced on Luo Chen. Luo Chen used the Dog-Beating Stick Technique on his sword, and the little spiders were seriously injured and retreated.

After the fight was over, except for the two who were still alive, almost everyone else was dead. Several cloth bags fell from the sky, containing some spider remains and some gold coins. Luo Chen naturally took the gold coins and threw the mutilated corpses aside.

Just then, Larov came running back shouting. Luo Chen looked at him and asked, "Brother, I've finished cleaning up. Have you found the exit?"

Larov, slightly out of breath, pointed outside and said, "Yes...yes..."

Luo Chen patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, I know what you want to say. Come here, I have some water, have a drink first. By the way, those little spiders ran away, I'll deal with them now!"

After saying that, Luo Chen lightly leaped into the air and looked down at Larov, whose legs trembled uncontrollably upon seeing the spiders. Luo Chen couldn't help but find it a little funny. This unlucky guy really thought Luo Chen didn't know what he was thinking. Trying to trick him wouldn't be so easy.

Thinking of this, Larov kept calling out, "Luo Chen, Brother Luo, I know I was wrong, please come and save me!"

Luo Chen felt he had learned his lesson, so he jumped down from the sky. As soon as the bear saw Luo Chen, it slapped down with its paw, and Luo Chen met it with his own hand.

Larov knew Luo Chen was awesome, but he didn't expect Luo Chen to do such a bold move so easily. So he closed his eyes, and with a loud bang, smoke slowly spread around. After the smoke dissipated,

Luo Chen remained standing in the same spot, while the black bear stood there quite dashingly. Seeing that both the man and the animal were standing there showing off and neither of them moved, Larov walked towards Luo Chen step by step. Just then, the black bear let out a yelp, and Larov immediately took two steps back. At that moment, the black bear collapsed to the ground.

Luo Chen finished off the person in front of him with his moves and let out a long breath. Larov did not expect that Luo Chen had killed a bear and was completely unharmed. He then began to search Luo Chen's body.

"Bro, are you alright? You're really okay! You're amazing, how did you do that!"

Luo Chen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. The two walked towards the direction the wind was blowing, and a huge hole appeared in front of them. They both walked out at the same time.

The air felt so fresh, and the two of them took a deep breath at the same time. Luo Chen looked at Larov beside him and asked, "Brother, what are your plans next?"

Larov shook his head: "I don't know either. We'll just have to see how things go. If my lord manages to escape, I'll follow him and fight against this empire together. If he dies, I'll just stay home and live out the rest of my life in peace."

Luo Chen looked up at the sky, and Larov asked him, "And what about you?"

Luo Chen echoed Larov's sentiment: "I think both sides are working hard for their own benefit, but what they say doesn't benefit the people here at all. So I've decided to create a new force on my own!"

Larov patted Luo Chen on the shoulder: "Whatever happens, we need to find a place now. My home is in Qingxi Town. We can't stay here for long. I estimate that the people from the Empire will find the honey tunnel and come after us soon. So why don't you come stay at my place first?"

Larov, of course, hoped that Luo Chen would go to his place; only then would he have a chance to keep Luo Chen there forever. Luo Chen nodded: "Okay, let's go to your sister's first!"

Chapter 198 Choice

After the two had discussed it, they immediately set off for Qingxi Town. Along the way, they saw birds singing and flowers blooming everywhere. Looking ahead, they saw an enormous mountain peak that stood horizontally on the top of the mountain.

"Stop looking! That peak is where the legendary dragon descendants live!"

Luo Chen thought to himself, "Aren't they talking about me? Aren't I just a dragonborn?" Then Larov continued to introduce the things along the way. "Speaking of which, did they have directional signs in the Middle Ages?" Luo Chen wondered to himself.

The sign clearly indicated which way led to Qingxi Town. The two walked in that direction, and four stone tablets appeared before Luo Chen's eyes. There were several options on them. Larov explained that this world was filled with all kinds of gods, and as long as one prayed well, one could receive the gods' blessings.

"This is still a magical world," Luo Chen thought to himself. At the same time, a series of sounds rang out around him. Luo Chen appeared in front of the stone tablet and reached out to touch the tiger-shaped stone tablet.

A powerful impact suddenly surged through Luo Chen's body. Fortunately, Luo Chen's bones were strong, and it was actually Luo Chen's own strength that absorbed and completely digested this so-called blessing from God.

Of course, Luo Chen was completely unaware of these matters. After absorbing the stone's blessing, Luo Chen followed Larov beside him again.

Soon they arrived at Qingxi Town, where two men stepped forward and intercepted Luo Chen.

"Are you new here? I don't think I've seen you before!"

Luo Chen nodded, and Larov stepped forward. Many people recognized Larov and knew his role within the Stormcloaks.

"Mr. Larov, is this your friend?"

Larov nodded, and the soldiers realized they might have offended someone they couldn't afford to mess with. So they politely said to Luo Chen, "Excuse me, sir, please. But if you cause trouble in the city, we will definitely arrest you!"

These people are really funny. They're worried about offending me, yet they still give me this useless warning. Luo Chen naturally won't bother with these insignificant people and just follows Larov inside.

At this moment, Larov's sister came out and looked at the two people in front of her: "Larov, how dare you come back?"

Luo Chen was somewhat bewildered by this sudden remark. At this moment, Larov pulled Luo Chen aside and said softly, "My sister is a loyal fan of the Empire, so her attitude might be a little harsh. Please understand!"

Luo Chen then realized that a year ago, Larov personally led the Stormcloak to attack Qingxi Town, and the lord at the time was Larov's sister's husband. When two countries were at war, each had its own lord. Larov had no choice but to kill his sister's husband. This story sounds a bit horrifying, but it is indeed a fact.

Luo Chen could only smile at Larov, not expecting his sister to be such a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment.

Larov was also quite helpless. His sister was just like that. When Luo Chen entered their home, Larov's father was very polite to Luo Chen and even handed him a lot of good food. Luo Chen was a little confused. Logically speaking, this was not the kind of treatment he should receive.

It was only later that Luo Chen learned that this family was completely different. The father had a grudge against the empire because his wife had died at the hands of the empire.

There was indeed some confusion here. Luo Chen looked at the map and found the location of Winterhold College. Everyone was saying that we should solve the problem of this dragon first.

Luo Chen agreed with their views. At Larov's request, Luo Chen promised him that as long as the solution to the dragon's hidden danger was explained, everyone would go their separate ways from then on. After all, Luo Chen wanted to rule the world himself.

Larov, on the other hand, wanted Dustfall to help him rule the world with Stormcloak. The two had some differences in their ideas, which is why they separated.

Following Larov's sister's instructions, Luo Chen arrived outside Whiterun. Several soldiers rushed out and placed their swords against Luo Chen's body.

"You are a wanted criminal of the Empire!"

"I'm here to see your lord, not some wanted criminal!"

Hearing Luo Chen's words, the group was still somewhat incredulous, so they sent someone to investigate and obtained a wanted poster.

"You are clearly someone the Holy Land Town is supposed to execute. I don't know why you escaped, but as a wanted criminal of the Empire, we must capture you and hand you over to the lord!"

Having said that, they were about to make a move against Luo Chen when a woman with big eyes and big ears walked out. As soon as everyone saw her, they immediately bowed respectfully to her.

"What's all this noise about?"

Everyone turned their heads at this moment, and saw that the woman was wearing a full suit of armor from head to toe, and seemed to possess extremely powerful strength. Even Luo Chen did not dare to underestimate the woman in front of him.

"Miss Nigada, I'm sorry, but there's a wanted criminal here who says he wants to see the lord!"

"is it?"

She walked up to Luo Chen and asked, "Were you the one who let them make such a racket here?"
