A huge cart drove slowly, transporting a large number of iron cages deep into the jungle.
Passing through bursts of mist, following the light of fire, we entered the most mysterious place in the forest.
The leading secret guard pushed aside the branches and leaves, and a ray of moonlight filtered through the gaps between the dense leaves and fell on their faces.
"arrive."
The demihuman secret guard said calmly, pushing aside a branch and leaf, and a towering green building came into view of the beast-eared demihumans.
The huge green building seemed to blend in with the surrounding environment. The dim moonlight covered the roof, making it look particularly quiet.
It feels like you have entered a field of flowers, swaying slowly with the gentle wind.
This place is the Cravena family's demihuman asylum.
After Liya saves the demi-humans, she will not be irresponsible to them.
All rescued demi-humans will be brought here for training.
and literacy and learning culture to enhance understanding of the world.
Ensure that all rescued demi-humans can have their own thoughts and be able to survive even if they break away from the Cravena family.
A demi-human with white animal ears and an instructor's hat slowly walked out of the training center.
She looked at the cat girls and dog girls looking around curiously, and nodded towards the secret guard.
They are the instructors responsible for the training and civilization of these demi-humans.
Instructors like her usually retire from the work of secret guards, return here to become instructors, and continue to provide fresh demi-human guards to the Cravenna family.
There are many types of demi-humans in the team, but the ones that account for the largest proportion are the cat-human race and the dog-human race.
And most of them are female.
For humans, female demi-humans are easier to catch.
The female cat people are smaller in stature than the average human woman, while the female dog people have a gentle personality and will not fight.
Most of them were captured by slave traders.
The instructor greeted the demihuman compatriots who had just arrived here and took out pieces of wooden signs.
The new demi-humans felt a little uneasy, their ears gradually trembled due to panic, and there was a little fear in their eyes.
The sanity of demihumans is not as good as that of humans, and the thoughts they have when living in the wild are closer to animals.
But here, they will overcome their primitive impulses and transform completely.
The iron cage was opened, and the imprisoned beast girls came out one after another and stood in a long row.
The demi-human instructors held wooden signs with numbers one after another in their hands. Every time a demi-human walked out, the instructors would hang the wooden signs around their necks.
After doing this, the instructors will lead these new companions into the camp one after another.
Provide them with adequate water and food, as well as new shelter.
The next day, they will have a different life than before.
Through training, new life is ushered in.
Leon stood outside the shelter, looking at the batches of demi-humans being rescued one after another.
At this time, she had already taken off her hood, exposing her pointed ears to the moonlight.
As Liya's most trusted subordinate, she is specifically in charge of the demihuman concentration training camp here.
Every time a ship carrying demihuman slaves was intercepted, she was personally responsible for bringing the new ones here.
Although among those demihumans, she was the only one who was an elf.
But Leon's character and strength have won the respect of countless demi-humans.
"Lord Leon."
A secret guard took off his black mask and cloak, revealing a white plush tail and drooping ears, and walked towards Leon with light steps.
"I'm sorry to disturb you at this time, but I think you should come and see me."
Leon came back to his senses and looked at her nervous look, a little confused.
.......
A group of instructors gathered in front of the iron cage covered with a dark curtain, seemingly very curious about what was inside.
This iron cage is very huge, bigger than all the previous iron cages.
The black curtain was lifted by everyone, revealing the true appearance of the iron cage.
The iron cage was extremely luxurious, and there seemed to be golden patterns carved on the railings. There were many flowers and plants embellishment in the iron cage.
Although the word "luxury" obviously doesn't go well with "iron cage".
But in this cage, there is also a bed.
This made them a little confused.
On the bed, there was a person whose appearance could not be seen clearly, sleeping soundly.
Even though the outside world has been noisy for a long time, the 'subhuman' in the iron cage is still sleeping soundly.
At this moment, Leon came over.
The demi-human instructors all retreated with great respect, leaving an open space for Leon.
Her green pupils looked carefully at the people inside.
Leon was slightly startled when he saw the other party's pointed and long ears that were similar to hers.
"This... I should report this to Miss Liya..."
The demi-humans around him gave suggestions.
because.
The person lying in the iron cage is neither human nor demi-human.
But an elf.
…
It was too late and it was too dark.
So Victor did not return to the royal capital, but chose to stay with Liya in Cravenna's old house for a day.
At this time, Victor was in his bedroom.
He sat on a chair in front of the window, holding his head in one hand, as if he was distressed.
In front of him was a neatly dressed cat lady.
There seemed to be a faint fragrance exuding from the body, the two cat ears were drooped, and the tail was erect and hidden behind it.
Victor: "..."
This cat lady seemed a little unaccustomed to it. She didn't dare to raise her head to look at Victor, and her eyes were a little timid.
But her eyes secretly glanced at Victor from time to time, amidst fear and some strange expectation.
Victor had a good memory, and he immediately recognized the cat girl as the one he had touched.
Next to him, mocking words rang in his ears.
"Hey, your sister is nice to you. I know you like the younger one."
Vega stood on the armrest of the chair, grinning, with an unspeakable joking tone in his tone.
Victor just replied to Vega coldly:
"Are you kidding me?"
In the human perception of this world, demi-humans are uncivilized animals.
No matter how much the catgirls in front of me look like humans, they can't change humans' stereotypes about them.
If you really have any thoughts about this kind of creature, it would be like having a sudden interest in your own cats and dogs.
Some people may like this one, but in aristocratic circles, if someone does such a thing, once word gets out, it is equivalent to losing their reputation.
Liya would not understand this, so the reason why she sent this child to her was also very simple.
"Want to try whether demi-humans can learn magic? Your sister really sees you as a suitable tool."
"Perhaps she thinks that my brother is omnipotent."
Victor's confident voice sounded calmly, but he received a look of disgust from Vega.
It just sneered:
"What makes you so thick-skinned?"
Victor did not respond to Vega, but just fixed his gaze on the cat girl in front of him.
Her hair is long and neatly taken care of.
Her long white hair hung down to the floor, and there were some white hairs in her ears.
When meeting Victor's eyes, he would subconsciously avoid him.
"what's your name?"
Victor's voice sounded faintly, but the cat girl in front of him seemed not to understand.
Her brain was racing, trying to understand Victor's language.
However, she had never received education and could not understand what 'name' meant.
Only the non-standard pronunciation slowly emerged from her throat:
"Wo...wo..."
"Can you barely understand people?"
Victor waved to her, asking the cat girl to come closer.
The cat girl understood Victor's gesture and approached him obediently.
She was not wearing shoes, and she wore small white socks on her feet. She walked very quietly.
Just like a real cat, it doesn't even make the slightest sound when stepping on the wooden floor.
Her body is very petite. Even if she stands next to Victor, when facing the sitting Victor, she can only look at him levelly.
Victor stretched out a hand, as if expecting something, and the cat-eared girl obediently squatted down.
He raised his head and leaned against Victor's leg, like a cat, waiting for the owner's touch.
So Victor got his wish and put his hand on her head.
Stroking back and forth slowly.
He rubbed his soft ears.
The furry feeling spreads along the fingertips.
Victor couldn't help but feel a little more emotional.
It's such a shame that most people in this world discriminate against Asians.
They simply don’t understand the beauty of animal ears.
The cute little kitten girl was also very comfortable being stroked, purring softly.
The moment he touched the cat girl, a health bar and level appeared on her head.
Level 5.
It was a very ordinary level, but it also told Victor that the physical foundation of demi-humans was indeed much higher than that of humans.
Before there is a formal profession, ordinary people can reach level ten at most.
Once you reach level ten, you need to choose a profession to continue upgrading.
[Occupation] is mainly divided into four categories.
Agile thief, powerful warrior.
Tank-type knights, and mages who use the magic system.
Other types of professions are basically derived from these four major professions.
The more common [Ranger] among elves, and the [Assassin] who focus on agility. They are all branches of the thief profession.
For example, [Mage] is also a branch of Mage.
If they are players, after level ten, they only need to choose a profession and then they can continue to upgrade.
But npc can't.
For example, the cat girl in front of him.
To become a mage, one must have corresponding wisdom.
And demihumans, creatures who have little intelligence and only rely on instinct to act, want to become mages.
Disaster.
Of course, there is another way to go.
"Vega."
Victor's voice sounded faintly, and the crow rolled its eyes and flew over the cat girl's head.
"In the end, it's not up to me."
As the words fell, a dark feather shook off from its body.
The feathers slowly fell to the floor, gradually spreading out as if they turned into ink, and painted into a pitch-black magic formation.
There are no extra runes or lines, just pure black, exuding an ominous light.
Two circles were formed at the end edge of the huge formation, and the circles were connected by a long line of black ink.
The cat girl and Vega each stood in a circle. At the same time, a strange light flashed in Vega's eyes.
Suddenly, the cat girl's body trembled violently, and her erect tail drooped as if she had lost control, and she knelt on the floor sluggishly.
An ocean of knowledge instantly poured into her brain.
The huge pressure made Cat Lady's eyes turn white, her brain felt like it was about to burst, and she was in extreme pain.
The black formation gradually bloomed with light, and the tentacle-like ink shadow waved around the room.
The only weak candle illuminated Mo Ying, and the moonlight poured into the room, making it look strange and unpredictable.
There was a blue light shining in Vega's one eye, as if there was a thin thread connecting it to the cat girl's forehead.
Soon, the candlelight in the room stopped flickering, and the black formation became quiet again and slowly dispersed.
The cat girl was still kneeling on the ground, not even raising her head.
But in his eyes, there was a flash of dark faith.
Victor looked at the white-haired cat girl and said slowly:
"I love the smell of vanilla on you."
"From today on, you will scream."
"Vanilla."
She did not raise her head, but continued to kneel on the ground, her forehead touching the floor, her attitude was very respectful.
A soft and steady voice slowly sounded from under Victor.
"Do your will."
"My master."
