Chapter 390: 390: Taming the Archangel (3 more updates)
Ronnie was a bit worried when he left since Shac wasn’t very good at bargaining.
Not long after Ronnie left, Shac suddenly stopped.
“Huh!”
“What’s the matter?” Lin Zhen asked.
“Seems like I’ve run into a group of acquaintances.” Shac pointed forward, and on a platform, several slave traders were selling hundreds of slaves.
Two of the girls were particularly beautiful, with pure white wings behind them. They looked innocent and sacred.
“You must be eyeing the beauties,” Lin Zhen teased him.
Unexpectedly, for once Shac reacted differently: “I may like beautiful women, but not these two. They are my mortal enemies. I was chased out of my hometown because of their clan. They are both dogs of the God of Bright, Wisdom Angels of the Angel Clan.”
As Shac spoke, his eyes turned red, and his sharp teeth clashed, as if he harbored great hatred towards the Angel Clan.
The group approached the crowd, and Lin Zhen looked at the two angel girls. They were indeed extraordinarily beautiful, but their realms were just Satellite Level 7.
The slave traders were shouting loudly: “Ladies and gentlemen, come and see! Here are angel girls from the Pisces constellation, with pure blood and gorgeous looks! They are absolutely virgins, taking them home as bed warmers will be worth every penny! One costs 50 million Tianhe Coins, both for 90 million. Why don’t you take them, sir, it’s a good deal!”
For satellite-level slaves, a price of several million was normal. The price of these two angels, 90 million, was definitely high, but it was due to their beauty.
However, there were no fools in the slave market. Even those who wanted to buy felt the price was too high. Tianhe Coins were a powerful currency; 90 million could be equal to 90 billion on a normal life star. So it was not worth buying two beautiful girls with limited practical value.
The two angel girls hung their heads, remaining silent. Their beautiful eyes were dull and lifeless, like they had lost all hope for the future.
Lin Zhen was planning to leave after a quick glance, but Shac couldn’t help it and ran directly to the front of the angel girls, mocking them.
“Hehe! Let me see who these beauties are. Aren’t they the most beautiful and pure twin angels, Little Angel and elder Angel, under the God of Bright? How did you guys end up as slaves? It’s karma!”
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the angel sisters slowly raised their heads only to see Shac’s devil-horned head.
“Shac, you’re the demon Shac!”
The angel sisters showed fearful expressions, as if they were terrified.
However, they soon realized that they were no longer on their planet, and Shac couldn’t do anything to them here.
“Yes, I am Shac. But now I am a knight for a nobleman, and you two hypocritical Bright God Clan members are just slaves!”
“What? You, of all people, have become a knight!” The older angel sister looked at Shac in disbelief. She couldn’t imagine what kind of nobleman would employ someone like him.
“Hahaha! The greatness of our master is beyond the comprehension of hypocrites like you. By the way, where is that hateful bastard of yours, Archangel Jason? Is he dead yet?”
Shac had been hunted down by Jason and had fled in exile. Naturally, he hated Jason to the core, so he wanted to know the situation.
Unexpectedly, the angel sisters’ eyelashes fell: “The Bright God Clan no longer exists. The God of Bright and another god…died in a battle with a powerful person. Our clan has been enslaved, and Jason is in this slave market.”
“Ah! That guy became a slave too? This is really a pleasant surprise.”
Shac couldn’t contain his excitement, dancing and jumping with joy.
Lin Zhen suddenly looked at the slave trader: “I’ll buy these two girls from the Angel Clan for 60 million.”
The slave trader hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Lin Zhen’s decisive demeanor, quickly agreed: “Deal.”
Watching Lin Zhen take the chips of the two Angel Clan girls, Shac whispered, “Master, 60 million is a bit expensive. If it’s for beauty, I know many races that have beautiful women.”
Lin Zhen ignored him, and instead spoke to the two Angel Clan girls: “Take me to see the Jason you mentioned.”
The two Angel Clan girls were overjoyed. Little Angel said, “Master, do you want to buy Jason? We can take you to him right away. He’s not far from here.”
Upon hearing this, Shac was stunned and said to Lin Zhen: “Master, that Jason guy is an inflexible, boring, and unyielding bastard. Buying him would not be worth it…”
Lin Zhen turned his head: “You’re afraid of him?”
“Ah! I…I can’t beat him.” Shac replied dumbly.
“That’s good. If I only relied on you guys, who knows what kind of mess I could get into. I can’t just take the cheap ones. I need someone presentable and strong. The fact that you’re afraid of him eases my mind.”
Ten minutes later, following the guidance of the angel sisters, Lin Zhen arrived at a high platform.
During the journey, the angel sisters carefully erected their wings to shield Lin Zhen from the sunlight. With their flower-like appearance, Lin Zhen couldn’t help but sigh at how they really were angels who had served a so-called deity before.
You get what you pay for, and that was absolutely true.
Lin Zhen also granted the Angel sisters the status of knights, intending to leave these two Angel Clan girls at home to take care of his parents, so their status had to be higher.
As a count, he could have thousands of knights, which he could afford.
On the high platform, one slave stood out, with six wings behind him, looking like a cold marble sculpture with his eyes closed, not paying attention to anything.
Despite this, the powerful aura he emitted was unmistakable, and the surrounding slaves did not dare to approach him.
He was actually a Constant Star Level 1!
Constant Star Level experts were not that common,
Lin Zhen approached the slave trader, and after a brief communication, the trader immediately paid his respects to Lin Zhen with sincere fear.
“How much for this slave? I don’t like haggling or being taken advantage of, so I hope you can give me a reasonable price.”
The slave trader looked troubled: “Count, if it were someone else, I wouldn’t say this, but I dare not deceive you, this Archangel should normally sell for around 30 billion, but this guy has a terrible temper, and he seems to have no will to live. Several people have tried to buy him, but he has refused them all.”
“Refuse? Can slaves refuse?”
“No, it’s just that this guy doesn’t want to live anymore. He’s tried to kill himself several times, and we’re losing our shirts on him. If you can subdue him, one-time offer, ten billion and you can take him away!”
Lin Zhen nodded. The value difference between the Constant Star Stage and Planet Stage was immense, with prices skyrocketing tens or even hundreds of times. Ten billion was not expensive at all.
Angel Clan is one of the powerful battle races in their level, born with Spiritual Mind Master abilities, control of light elements and winged for acceleration.
“Deal!”
Lin Zhen made up his mind to buy him.
The slave trader was overjoyed and immediately transferred the authority to manage through the smart life system. Only after Chris completed the process did the Archangel Jason open his eyes.
With a burst of holy white flames around him, he seemed tired of his wandering destiny and actually tried to self-destruct!
“Lord Jason!”
The Angel sisters called out in unison, and the process of Jason’s self-destruction stopped.
“Angels who serve the God of Bright…you…how did you get here? You’re knights now?” Jason couldn’t believe what he saw, thinking that the fate of these two sisters should be miserable,
“Yes, Lord Jason, our master has granted us the status of knights. He’s very kind, he’s willing to lead us out of our suffering, and now you’ve been bought by our master, too. Come with us.”
Jason looked at Lin Zhen and Lin Zhen timely released his Radiant Power. As one who resonated with Light Quantum, Lin Zhen had great affinity at this moment.
Jason was obviously tempted but still whispered, “But I am an Archangel under the God of Bright, born to fight. There’s no place for me to use my skills right now… I…”
Lin Zhen had thought the Angel sisters could easily win over Jason, but this guy still seemed a bit depressed.
Little Angel blinked: “Lord Jason, our master has a bunch of scoundrels under him, look, even Shac is here. More than a thousand pirates serve our master. Don’t you think you should help our master control these scoundrels?”
“Shac!” Jason’s eyes lit up, and his gaze fell on Shac who had been cowering behind Lin Zhen.
“It really is you, you demon who actually managed to become a knight. Damn it, I’m going to teach you a lesson.”
“You can’t, I am now a knight to my master.” Shac said weakly.
Jason also realized the change in status. At this moment, he found his direction: his fellow clan members were still there, along with a group of scoundrels. His sense of mission made him feel he couldn’t let them go unattended. Besides, Lin Zhen, his new master, seemed really good.
“Jason pledges to loyally serve his master and ensure that these pirates do not cause trouble!”
Lin Zhen didn’t expect Shac to be the one who reignited Jason’s fighting spirit. It was a lucky coincidence.
Lin Zhen paid 10 billion Tianhe coins to purchase a Constant Star Level Spiritual Mind Master, which was quite a bargain. He happily helped Jason up and said, “In that case, I’ll grant you the status of a Centurion.”
Lin Zhen had a thousand knights, allowing for ten Centurions and one Thousand Cavalry Leader as the leaders of the knights.
Jason’s face showed emotion: “I won’t let you down, sir.”
Only then was Lin Zhen truly satisfied. With Jason’s addition, he finally had some people with impressive abilities under his command.
The group of people boarded the small shuttle and returned to the Black Pearl.
When Lin Zhen brought Jason and the others back aboard the Black Pearl, he discovered that it had already become a chaotic mess.
Stephen and Ronnie, among others, were adjusting the ship’s firepower system, planning to seize the opportunity to make a heist on their way back to Lin Zhen’s hometown.
They thought that Lin Zhen had purposefully bought them, a group of pirates, for the purpose of robbing and plundering. After all, there were scoundrels among the nobles, too.
These people even had matching pirate uniforms and were now fully dressed, waiting eagerly with bloodshot eyes to leave the Jade Star and enter the Star Sea, which they were most familiar with.
