Chapter 384 Slave Rebellion
A vigorous slave rebellion movement, centered in the Magic Capital, began to spread to the surrounding areas.

Overnight, the honest and obedient slaves, for unknown reasons, took some kind of medicine and started making all kinds of noises.

Those who fled fled, and those who resisted resisted.

The slave movement was most intense in the manors in the countryside surrounding the Magic Capital, because the manors were not in the city but outside the city, and the defenses were far less strict than those in the city.

It was inevitable that slaves would work outdoors!

They were digging in the fields with farm tools, then suddenly dropped the tools and ran into the nearby woods, or jumped into a stream... and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving the guards who were watching them at a loss as to where to chase them.

The great nobles were furious and immediately ordered the blockade of all checkpoints, strictly investigating those who could not explain their identities, and immediately hanged any escaped slaves in public to serve as a warning to others.

I thought that by doing this, I could easily catch the escaped slaves.

However, a strange thing happened. The escaped slaves seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth and could not be found at all.

"Someone is helping them escape!" The nobles responded, "It must be someone sent by the impostor to help the slaves escape."

"This damn impostor has just conquered Sunshine City and is already reaching out to the capital. How despicable."

"Damn it! We have to reorganize our army and kill the impostor."

A sense of division began to arise throughout the Magic Kingdom. A large number of nobles and slave owners whose interests were damaged by the slave movement stood more clearly on the side of Ugumantai, vowing to kill the impostor.

Even though they knew that the impostor had powerful weapons and that the four major knight orders had been defeated, they were still unwilling to admit defeat, because admitting defeat would mean losing all their slaves and all their free labor...

However, there were also a group of nobles who were smarter and whose thoughts changed more quickly.

Captured something keenly!
Through their own informants, they found out about the work system in Sunshine City. Transforming slaves into workers who need to be paid... At first glance, this seems to be a loss of interests, but combined with the effect of human's [self-interest] talent, the labor efficiency of workers is several times higher than that of slaves. Although the workers are paid, the money they earn will not decrease, and may even increase.

After figuring out the account, these flexible-minded nobles began to think. They took the initiative to gather their own slaves, announced their liberation from slavery, and asked them to escort them to escape to Sunshine City.

When we arrive in Sunshine City, we will pay for the construction of farms and factories, and then "hire" these workers to work for us. In this way, the workers don't have to worry about not finding jobs in the new place, and they will no longer be slaves. Isn't that wonderful?
When this plan was proposed, the slaves were overjoyed.

Especially for those honest slaves who cannot muster the courage to participate in the slave movement, if they can change their identities in this relatively peaceful way, why not do it?

They quickly responded to the call, protected their master, sneaked out of the manor, traveled during the day and slept at night, avoided checkpoints, and finally arrived at the Sunshine City and joined the camp of the true king.

A great political battle unfolds magnificently.

Some people voted because they were afraid of the queen's military strength, some voted because of interests, some voted because their interests were damaged and they firmly opposed the impostor, and some voted because they were conservative and insisted on following the "ancestral system."

All living beings are vividly displayed at this moment.

At this time, Zhang Jingyi was studying a new thing.

The wolves came to Zhang Jingyi carrying a dozen skeletons. These skeletons were actually wearing robes and holding staffs in their hands.

Zhang Jingyi: "Hey, these skeletons, are they the mages who displayed the 'Flying Item Delay Space' last time?" The wolves said respectfully: "Yes, they are the mages. After they were killed by our tanks, we picked out their bodies one by one when we were cleaning up the battlefield."

Zhang Jingyi chuckled: "Very good, very good."

He beckoned to the maid: "Bring me my new elf robe."

The production process of Zhang Jingyi's new robe is extremely complicated.

First, he put the top-quality silk he brought from the modern times into the Moon Well in the Elf Village and soaked it for a month. With the help of the power of the Moon Well, he turned it into "Moon Cloth".

Then these moon cloths are handed over to the best tailor in the elf village to be made into exquisite "elf robes". The next step is enchantment. The elf tailor uses extremely elegant craftsmanship to embroider magic runes on the moon cloth one by one, and then enchant it with a large number of artificial gems. If one attribute is attached incorrectly, it will be dismantled and started over.

No matter the cost! Crazy investment.

Finally, it turned into the top-level elf robe worn by Zhang Jingyi.

He put on his robes, and his magic power instantly increased dozens of times. The abundant magic power lingered throughout his body, and he recited the spell of [Control the Undead]...

A black light was injected into the bodies of the skeletons. Soon, one by one, the skeletons moved, jumped off the werewolf's hands, stood still, waved their wands, and tugged at their robes, seeming to be very satisfied.

Grinning: "Kacha!" (Hello, my master!)

Zhang Jingyi chuckled and said, "Skeleton mages! More than a dozen skeleton mages! Hehehe, these are much stronger than skeleton soldiers, right?"

Anyone who has played Heroes of Might and Magic 3 knows that Skeleton Mages are more powerful than Skeleton Soldiers...

Antonio stood nearby with a strange expression on his face. As a wizard, he felt a little weird when he saw other wizards being summoned as skeleton wizards after their death.

"Your Majesty, you want to bring them back?"

Zhang Jingyi: "Of course it's the 'Flying Prop Delay Space'. How can I not play with such a fun thing? Teacher Antonio, you promised to teach me."

Antonio actually agreed, but he didn't expect Zhang Jingyi to use the skeleton wizard to play this. He thought Zhang Jingyi would select dozens of wizards from the Restoration Army to play this thing.

I didn't expect His Majesty the King to play with the skeleton directly...

Antonio said, "Your Majesty! The combat power of skeleton mages is still much worse than that of real human mages. After all, they have no flesh and blood, only a skeleton. They have lost their sanity and can only rely on the weak consciousness left in their lifetime. They no longer have the ability to meditate, gather and release magic power, and they rely entirely on the magic power of the summoner, that is, you, to operate."

Zhang Jingyi smiled and said, "I know. To sum it up, it's much dumber than a real mage, right?"

Antonio: "Yes! We are the Magic Kingdom of Farlan, we still have a lot of magicians, there is no need to use this thing."
