What were you doing before the end of the world? Are you going to be an assassin?

0201 was about to speak, but Connor's eyes made it clear to him that Connor was not waiting for his answer but was expressing his attitude with his strength. 0201 suddenly froze in place.

"Go out? Go... where?" The "co-workers" who had worked together for four days suddenly became strange and scary. The slaves looked at Connor in fear, fearing that he would kill everyone here.

"What's so good about the outside world? The Degenerates are slaves everywhere and cannot escape the inspection of the Empire..." The slaves who were thrown in on the same day as Connor sighed. There was no sunshine for them outside at all.

"I can barely make a living here..."

"Just to make a living? Have you forgotten so quickly who wanted to take away half of the people here to fill the furnace?"

Connor pointed at the factory manager outside who was breathing in less than breathing out, and the guard squad leader who had his fingers cut off. During this short period of time, they were all about to faint from the pain.

Filling the furnace. When Connor chased them out, 0201 had already explained what filling the furnace meant. The cruel reality of half of them dying every few days made them shudder collectively.

"Sir 0226..." 0201 said hesitantly.

"My name is Connor. Do you have a name? Also, I'm not an adult." Connor interrupted him. The number was already a thing of the past.

"Yes... My name is Red, Connor..." 0201, that is, Red swallowed the honorific and continued, "You know, I have a good relationship with the black boots... I happened to hear them say that someone escaped and caused a lot of trouble for the black boots in other factories."

"I don't know anything else." Red carefully looked at Connor's face, trying to figure out this daring man. In just a short period of time, Red felt that his ability to judge people was really correct.

That was enough to say, Connor had seen something other than numbness on the faces of those cowering slaves.

"Did you hear that? You can still get out..."

"Really? Then we should also..."

"Going out may not be a good idea. Will those magic masters let us go? Or we should stay here... Anyway, the guards have been killed..."

Connor listened to the slaves' whispers and smiled.

These slaves would definitely not want to leave their current lives without some stimulation. Even if they stayed, they would only be waiting for death. Do you really think the alarm in the passage is just for show?

"If you want to stay, feel free to stay. I won't make things difficult for you," Connor said, showing his white teeth.

"I will write on the wall that I did it all by myself. You have nothing to do with it. You didn't tip me off, you didn't keep watch for me, and you didn't kill a single guard."

After saying that, Connor started to carve on the marble wall with a knife, and finally left a mark.

The slaves didn't understand what the latter part meant, but the former...

We are just degenerates, without magic power, but not without intelligence. When we heard that the slaves had revolted and killed the factory manager, if the people sent by the higher-ups saw this line when they came down to investigate, they would definitely send them all to the furnace.

"Go! I want to go out!"

"I've long wanted to defeat these traitors!"

Led by a few new slaves, Connor's "co-workers" were finally willing to move.

Connor threw several short sticks that had been depleted of magic power at the feet of the slaves and pointed at the guard leader who had not a single finger left:

"Well, let's start with the first step."

31. Wireless fast charging

For a free man, death is the loss of joy, but for a slave, death is the loss of pain.

Of the more than 40 people present, half were to be pulled in to fill the furnace today, and the rest came in with Connor and had not forgotten the sun outside. These people had already stood on Connor's side when Connor suddenly attacked and injured people.

More realistically, if they didn't follow Connor, they would have no food to eat today. Only those who were close to Red would save a small piece of bread for gambling at night, and that bread would usually not be saved until the next day.

The desire for freedom is contagious, and people always follow blindly.

The infection gradually spread from the twenty or so people at the beginning to the people on the assembly line. After the fingerless guard squad leader died under the slaves' short sticks, the forty or so people who had pledged their allegiance and were tied up by Connor with no way out became the pioneers in inciting the slaves in the entire underground factory.

Connor led these people into the monitoring room that he had deliberately left behind, and pulled out the four guards hiding inside. Even the people on the 02 assembly line who were reluctant to take action at first used the method that Connor had used before to make the slaves on the other four assembly lines become accomplices in killing the guards.

A group of people carried the factory director, who was only breathing his last breath, and sent the rebellious slaves up in batches through the only elevator leading to the upper level.

The scale of this factory was only medium. There were only more than 600 people including slaves, guards and a few logistics staff, of which more than 500 were slaves.

After Connor cleared out the guards on five assembly lines, he basically encountered no living resistance forces.

Except for the agency.

The slaves who first came to the upper level could not wait to rush to the passage. That was the area where the guards and the factory director lived. There must be a lot of wealth there. Even if they could snatch a pair of boots or a coat, it would be a no-cost business and a windfall.

But things are not as simple as these degenerates think.

At the edge of the upper passage stood two "guards" in armor. The armor on these guards was quite old, and spider webs covered their heads like the skinny faces of old men.

But they are still useful after all.

As a preventive measure to guard the elevators at important transportation hubs, these two guards were scrapped items that the factory director had spent a large sum of money to buy as a tribute to the magic masters. They were at least things that the factory director's grandfather had bought, and they were activated with difficulty.

Unlike the guards who had short sticks in their hands that could cast magic, these two armored guard statues simply rushed towards the slaves waving their swords.

The slave rushing in the front was the bravest among all the Degenerates. He picked up the short stick with one bar of charge left in his hand, aimed at the armored guard's head and fired.

With a bang, the magic that could leave charred marks on the marble floor disappeared without a trace when it touched the armor. Before the slave could come to his senses, the armored guard's sword had already broken his cervical vertebrae.

The armored guards only used it for a moment, and the courage that the slaves had finally mustered was crushed by these two armored guards.

"Put your head down!"

Connor's voice came from the elevator shaft. He was supposed to stay at the end to supervise order, but he didn't expect that trouble would arise just after sending a group of people up. He had to use the three-dimensional maneuvering device to abandon the elevator and climb up by hooking the four walls of the elevator shaft.

As soon as he came up, he saw two magic-immune armored guards who were like tigers among a flock of sheep, rushing left and right among the rebels as if they were in an empty space.

【Eagle Vision】!

no response.

Connor immediately switched from [Eagle Vision] that could observe life to [Eagle Vision: Reveal] that could observe mechanisms, and this time there was indeed a reaction.

“A magic mechanism?” Connor looked at the glittering gems inlaid on the chests of the two armored guards in the [Revelation] field of view. “Making the magic hub into a heart-protecting mirror, how much do you despise physical attacks?”

The armored guards seemed to sense [Revelation] sweeping across their bodies, and the faceless helmets immediately raised up and looked at Connor hanging in the elevator shaft.

When they looked at each other, [Sixth Sense] was activated!

Connor once again entered the slow vision. The three-dimensional mobile device carried his body forward rapidly, brushing past the scalps of the slaves who bowed their heads. Controlling the three-dimensional mobile device with one hand allowed him to hold the guards' short sticks with the other hand.

Since you are immune to magic attacks, let's try the simplest and most direct physical attack!

[Charge Heavy Attack·Short Stick]!

Connor used the speed and strength of the bell pestle, and poked the chest of the armored guard in front with the short stick. The heart-protecting mirror and magic hub that seemed to be made of solid gemstone was pierced through in the blink of an eye like a piece of thin paper under the simple acceleration. The armored guard who lost his magic hub fell to the ground.

The effect of the sixth sense had disappeared. Another armored guard showed the strength and speed of a magic guard. He rushed up like a heavy chariot and knocked Connor away with just his shoulder.

呲——

The tip of the sword rubbed against the marble floor in the passage, and every scratch connected to the surrounding magic lines and transported magic power to the magic hub.

"Wireless fast charging..." Connor's mind was a little confused after being trapped by the armored guards and the wall. The first thought that came to his mind was not how to avoid the next attack, but what kind of world was outside.

By the time he came to his senses, the armored guard was already in front of him and raised his sword to trigger the execution.

Connor was about to use the 3D maneuvering device to pull away and sprint again, but Red, who was the first to say that someone had successfully escaped and was also one of the first to choose to go out with Connor to take a look, jumped onto the back of the armored guard and strangled the armored guard's "throat" with a short stick.

When you think it's ridiculous that a degenerate wants to continue to stay in the factory and screw screws, remember that there is also a degenerate named Red who tried to strangle the "throat" of the armored guard who was just an empty shell.

Then Connor's "co-workers" also rushed forward, some hugged his legs, some pulled his arms.

Connor, who could have run, accepted the offer. Although his fellow workers did not play any role, he stepped forward and stabbed before the armored guard pulled Old Red off his back and trampled him to death, and launched another [Charged Heavy Attack].

The performance of the old model of armor guard is outdated, and the only useful feature is magic immunity. The rest of the features just look scary and are suitable for dealing with the degenerates who have nothing.

The second armored guard followed the same fate as the first and shattered to pieces.

Connor left Red and the worker who stepped forward to restore order among the Degenerates, and handed them the greatsword that was still intact among the armor guard fragments. Then Connor turned his attention to the guarded passage.

Perhaps because they had great confidence in the power of the armored guards, there were no other traps in this passage.

"Search the house and find anything you can use."

Connor instructed that, without knowing what the situation was outside, the best option for survival was to carry the most useful things in the shortest time.

While the rebels were searching for supplies in different directions, Connor came to a special door.

This is the factory director's room.

32. Is this the axe you dropped?

There was nothing in the room - just bare stone walls, the same combination of marble slabs and magic patterns as the rest of the factory, and no other furniture except for a shabby cupboard on the right wall, a table, and a bed.

The cupboard was covered in dust, but the door handle betrayed that it was just the switch of a hidden door.

Putting the bed and the table aside, Connor first used Eagle Vision to look at the secret door.

[Revelation], Connor could sense that behind the secret door there was a box made of monster teeth containing metal coins and amulets, and there was a bench specifically for storing souvenirs.

On the bench was a shelf decorated with blue lapis lazuli, a necklace of opal, agate, emerald and amethyst, each of which stored a corresponding magic spell, a cup made of gold and a set of assassin's master uniform.

I followed him parkouring at the comic convention, and then I followed him to the other world and his clothes reappeared in front of Connor.

"Why are my clothes still here?"

They are all made of ordinary materials. Their sizes are just to fit you and do not interfere with your movements. How can they be put together with those treasures?

Connor licked his dry lips. His clothes were supported by the lapis lazuli frame with the hood standing upright. It could even be said that it was more attractive to him than the jewel necklace and the gold cup.

Connor is currently in the state of having the [Equipment Card·Three-Dimensional Mobile Device] read through the prism. Once the equipment is removed, he will immediately change into the shabby clothes that slaves wear when working.

Then... take it away!

Connor listened to the noise outside which was still noisy, took a step forward and then stopped.

[Revelation] is telling him that something is wrong here, and behind the gems and the bright decorations lies... death.

He launched the revelation again, carefully examining everything behind the secret door, even the cracks in the ground.

Sure enough, there was a scarred stone sculpture on the left side of the secret door, as if a poorly crafted stonemason had chiseled it while drunk.

On the right side of the secret door, there is a wooden board painted the same color as the marble. It is also the only wooden board in the entire house.

Connor narrowed his eyes and crouched down, using the blade on his three-dimensional maneuverable device to gently reach inside the secret door.

With a whoosh, the wooden board on the right side of the secret door suddenly bounced up, bringing with it a strong wind. At the same time, a mechanism shot out from the side of the door. If Connor walked in brazenly, he would definitely be pierced by these sharp arrows.

After confirming that there was only one mechanism, Connor walked into the secret door cautiously and cut off a piece of wood to block the secret door to prevent any mechanism he missed from causing the secret door to close automatically.

"Prism, stop reading."

Connor said, and with the faint light of the octahedron, Connor returned to his prisoner uniform, but this uniform would soon say goodbye to him.

The sense of danger revealed by [Mind's Eye·Fake] prevented him from touching the jewel necklaces and gold cups that were obviously more valuable. Connor simply quickly changed into his old clothes, except for his boots.

In this damn place, it is safer to wear standard boots that can block [Punishment].

After getting dressed again, Connor felt like something was missing. Looking around, he found a good thing.

An axe.

This time, neither [Revelation] nor [Mind's Eye·False] gave any warning, and Connor broke off a part of the wooden board and pushed the axe over.

Prism: Obtain equipment [Battle Axe], equipment status: Enchanted Armor Breaking.

The enchanted axe, although it is only a simple enchantment, is enough to distinguish it from several other magical props and keep it separately from ordinary items.

As soon as he got it, Connor felt that this thing was perfect and subconsciously put the axe on his waist.

The magic wand is used to deal with the degenerates, the armored guards are used to deal with guards who may rebel, and the battle axe is used to deal with the armored guards. Connor understands the factory director's idea, but it's a pity that the factory director's idea is good, but his life is not strong enough.

"Prism, re-read the Stereo Maneuvering Device."

The octahedron once again emitted a faint light, and after the light faded, Connor had changed his appearance. He changed from a Survey Corps shirt to a white military dress jacket, and the straps of the three-dimensional maneuvering device were placed in a hidden place so as not to affect the appearance and comfort.

After doing all this, Connor took one last look at the jewel necklace and the gold cup, left the secret door and returned to the factory director's living room.

There were three small drawers under the table, all locked, but they were perfect for Connor to use to test his new axe.

Chop chop chop!

Not only can it penetrate armor, it is also professionally used to deal with these things.

After three hits, the lock broke, and Connor moved out the drawer, which was still made of marble.

The first drawer contained several magic props, including whips and handcuffs for beating people.

In the second drawer were some documents recording the factory's situation. They looked like draft reports to the higher-ups, because Connor also saw the notations "Bull 1" and "Bull 2" at the end of several paragraphs, meaning that they were going to brag about insignificant things in these two places.
