Successors of all mankind

As for charges, there are none. There's no need for them at all. He's just a third-class citizen. He deserves to die for offending the nobles!

Even the remaining corpses of the people in that settlement were specially made into incorruptible crystals and displayed on the road to this day!

And what did they do?

They bought a high-ranking nobleman as a spare part!

And you're making fun of them!

That's terrible, this is a crime.

If simply offending the nobility would result in their execution, what would become of those who truly offended them?

They had heard that those who committed extremely serious crimes would not die, but they did not know why, because they had never heard of it or seen it.

Such serious crimes are something they would never normally be associated with in their entire lives.

But they themselves knew many methods that could make people beg to die...

But the noblemen would never know such things; they would certainly know more and be more ruthless than the noblemen!

Even the opposing leader was trembling.

Yu Le felt that she should be safe.

Great, you survived!

Suddenly, Yu Le keenly noticed the change in the tyrannical boss's eyes—from fear to determination!

Oh no, is this kid going to resort to desperate measures?!

Therefore, Yu Le immediately said:

"Kneel down and kowtow to me now, and offer sufficient compensation, and I may forgive your sins!"

Yu Le thought that these words would settle things peacefully.

After all, their requirements are so simple, so there's no need for them to take unnecessary risks.

Furthermore, he did not believe that the hatred between everyone was an irreconcilable feud.

Therefore, this should not be considered as being hypocritical.

In order to gain their trust, he even made a point of saying that he would provide sufficient compensation!

As a modern person from the 2K era, he felt that this was enough.

This way, they could maintain their 'aristocratic' dignity without making them feel uncomfortable, while also providing them with a way out so they wouldn't take unnecessary risks.

He could also clearly see that the rest of the barbarians had breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and many of them slid down the wall, almost completely exhausted.

Fortunately, the old man was kind-hearted!

But what Yu Le never expected was that even so...

This only strengthened the boss's resolve.

Because the nobles would not let them off so easily!

This must be that damn guy, knowing that they have the upper hand now, saying this on purpose!

"Don't believe him! Have you forgotten? Those guys from that settlement to the east are still dead on the road!"

"They only offended the other side's eyes and this is what happened. Now, do you really think we have a chance to survive?"

"He said that on purpose!"

The barbarian boss's voice rang out.

It also awakened the remaining barbarians.

He should have shot Yu Le immediately to prevent this unstable element from further disrupting the situation.

But he knew his men all too well!

There were at least five, no, more than a dozen, in this group!

Given the chance, he would not hesitate to use his brain to save his own life!

Therefore, he had to make things clear first, letting everyone know that the only way out was to kill Yu Le and then quickly band together and escape!

Otherwise, he worried that he would be shot dead by one of his men as soon as he fired.

Even just now, he subconsciously reached for his waist, where he found his slave-issue pistol, which he never parted with.

It's a high-end product used by slaves and law enforcement. It won't jam even without maintenance, and it's precise and reliable.

It can absolutely kill with one blow!

But years of living on the run in the wasteland made him keenly aware of several ominous glances coming from beside him and even behind him.

His underlings were afraid he would go insane and were thinking that if anything went wrong, they would shoot him first!

This discovery made him quickly pull his hand away from where he had put it down.

Otherwise, he was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to utter a single word, and that these idiots would kill him and them together!

“We have no other way out. The nobles won’t let this go. We have to kill him now, then quickly pack our things and run south. As long as we escape into the Great Ruins, even the slaves of Nor’s Law Enforcement Team can’t do anything to us!”

As he spoke, he pointed to his head and said:

"Use your brains! Do you think any of the noble gentlemen you've ever met would let you off the hook in this situation? No! Absolutely not!"

These words indeed greatly provoked the remaining barbarians, and made their gazes toward Yu Le begin to turn dangerous.

Chapter 4 The Turn of the Tide

Yes, we're all just a bunch of trash, not even as good as dogs.

How could a nobleman possibly show them kindness?

This was just a temporary expedient that the old man deliberately said because he felt something was wrong!

Once the other party returned to Numen Nor, such a great noble family, they wouldn't even need to utter a word if they wanted them dead!

Just go home and enjoy yourself.

Because the henchmen of the law enforcement team will definitely handle everything for him perfectly!

Most of the time, they wouldn't even have to wait until the sun rose the next day before their heads were hung on the walls of the slave city of Nor!

That's a noble family whose purity level is at least 30%!

Barbarians only look like gorillas, not that they actually have the intelligence of gorillas.

They were smart, and their life on the run in the wasteland made them smarter than many others, because the unintelligent ones had already been demolished.

So they immediately understood the key point and realized that their leader was right!

The renewed sense of danger made Yu Le realize that she had to do something.

Otherwise, my chances of a turnaround would have been completely ruined.

Yu Le, who could barely feel her legs and could only hear her own heartbeat, sneered as she looked at the brute old man:

"You piece of trash, not even as good as a dog, dare to question my noble character?"

Then, Yu Le looked at the remaining barbarians with disdain and said:

"Take a good look at yourselves! You bunch of bastards aren't even worthy of my feigned deception."

After careful consideration, Yu Le said these words.

The barbarians' words made him realize that the class gap in this world seemed to be much larger than he had imagined.

Otherwise, these barbarians wouldn't have risked killing a 'noble' under such circumstances.

Therefore, he could no longer play the overly 'benevolent' aristocratic gentleman he had just portrayed.

Instead, they should play the role of an 'absolute superior' who is too lazy to even lower their head and argue because the gap between them is too big!

After all, if a dog bites someone, they'll be beaten, or even boiled to vent their anger. But if a dog barks at a passing sports car a few times, it's rare to see the car's owner stop and come back to deal with a stupid dog.

"But if you say such foolish things, or think of any treasonous things in front of me, then you're just asking for death!"

The owner of a sports car will ignore dogs on the roadside, but if they keep chasing and biting it without the owner responding, that's not right.

Then, Yu Le looked at the shrewish leader with a dangerous glint in his eyes!

"Especially you!"

Even the savage boss, who was already planning to go crazy, almost stopped breathing after that one look.

Because even he himself was starting to lose faith in his initial judgment.

Furthermore, the class difference in this era was not only reflected in status and military strength.

It is also a kind of understanding that is deeply ingrained in everyone's bones!

The lowly trash and dregs of the bloodline have to use their brains to rub the mud off the feet of the rich!

Seeing his boss, who was already wavering, Yu Le felt a little more at ease, but he still didn't relax.

Instead, he said to the other person:

"He's holding his head too high."

Upon hearing these words, the surrounding barbarians all trembled, and most of them hurriedly lowered their heads.

Even the shrewish leader, though he didn't immediately lower his head, did tilt his head and dodge slightly.

But it was this tilt of his head that made him realize the situation was completely out of control.

His underlings were persuaded by the other party again!

Yes, it's about persuading!

He definitely doesn't really intend to let us go!

He knew I had discovered his intentions, and he was trying to regain control of the situation!

He knew that no matter what, he was most likely going to be a tyrannical boss.

It also forced me to trust my own judgment and believe that I should take the risk!

Otherwise, not only would his life be in danger, but even if he did manage to save his life...

After such an incident, can he, the leader who has offended the nobles, still keep his subordinates in check?

A leader who loses his authority will inevitably be replaced one night!

Therefore, he is bound to die!

But do I really want to gamble with my life now for the sake of what will happen later?

Once the boss realized this, he became somewhat hesitant again.

That's just how people are; they look ahead and behind, and are always hesitant and indecisive.

Those who can act decisively are ultimately few and far between.

Because every action involves gains and losses, and the bigger the action, the more gains and losses need to be considered!

Right now, it seems like the barbarians are oppressing Yu Le, but at the same time, Yu Le is also oppressing these barbarians all by himself!

Under such immense pressure, the boss finally gave himself a satisfactory answer:

'After all...after all...after all, even if a noble family of this caliber were too lazy to argue with all of them, to give their bloodline and lineage an explanation, at the very least, their leader's head would definitely be chopped off!'

Once this idea came to mind, the boss felt that everything before him suddenly became clear.

He turned around, looking directly at—no, looking down at—this nobleman whom he hadn't even dared to glance at before, and said:

“You are a noble with a purity of over 30%. Even among the slaves of Noel, there are probably not many like you.”

"Therefore, your family lineage and bloodline must be quite famous and noble."

"Then, in order to give your bloodline and family an explanation, how could you possibly let go of us, this trash who have disgraced your bloodline?"

The barbarian boss turned me into "us".

Thus, the situation was back in his hands.

It also tightened the nerves of the barbarians, who had relaxed, to an extreme level again.

"You're absolutely right!"
