Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

For slaves, the minimum amount of food required to keep them alive was enough.

It was even normal for some harsh slave owners to often not feed their slaves.

It was common for slaves to work on an empty stomach. For them, eating was not just to fill their stomachs, but a luxury...

Most of the time they never had enough to eat and were always hungry.

but--

The exercise that Ye made them do made some slaves think of bad possibilities.

"Are you planning to train us to be gladiators?"

Several Spartans were somewhat resistant and suddenly asked, feeling sad and angry.

The Spartans were sent to the mountains from childhood to fight against wolves and survive the entire winter. Only those who survived were qualified to become Spartan warriors.

Almost every Spartan has the sense of honor of a qualified warrior and the pride and pride in his own strength.

They have powerful abilities and can die on the battlefield, but they should never become a performance for the slave owners' enjoyment.

If Ye really forced them to participate in the fight,

Even if they are intimidated by Ye's military power and submit on the surface, they will definitely be very resistant in their hearts. There is even a chance that they may rebel in the future.

...——Spartan warriors were not that afraid of death.

They were willing to accept Ye as their master, largely because they were impressed by Ye's powerful strength.

But if Ye wanted to humiliate them and trample on their dignity like other slave owners, they would rather choose death.

But Ye shook his head——

Then he said something that shocked them.

"Not gladiators, but warriors! I need a group of real warriors who can go to the battlefield.

I am not afraid to tell you that in the future I may take you to the Alliance War, or the battlefield between Rome and other countries..."

Even when necessary, he wanted these people to have the courage to take action against Rome without fear as long as he opened his mouth.

"You will serve as my most loyal and brave warriors and servants, and will work with me to build great achievements on the battlefield.

Let all enemies be terrified!

I want you to fight for me! ! As long as I give the order, no matter how terrible the enemy is,

They can all bravely show their weapons.

Born as a warrior, die as a warrior, live with more dignity.

How, can it be done? "

Night calmly watched a group of slave warriors,

“Fight for me, and I will grant you the highest honor.

You are no longer the most humble slaves, but brave warriors who make the women of Rome scream.

As long as you create enough merit for me,

In the future, I can allow you to marry and have children, and even take back your own names."

From the moment slaves became slaves and were sold in Rome, their names were erased and they were not allowed to use their original names.

They are just talking tools -

The new master could give the slave a new name at will.

Even a code for a number is fine.

Whether or not the slave owner is willing to let you use your original name depends entirely on his mood, temperament and hobbies.

Take back their own names? At this moment, a glimmer of light seemed to gradually rise in the dull and numb eyes of all the slaves, and they saw the respect of being a human being instead of a beast or a tool.

Chapter 64: The blueprint reflects the future, the true God of the world, the light of our salvation!

Even their names have been taken away, and their right to reproduce naturally has been taken away.

Even if a woman secretly had an affair with someone and gave birth to a child, the newborn child would become the slave owner's private property and a new slave.

From generation to generation, there is despair with no way out at all!

It is no wonder that Rome was often destroyed by itself due to this kind of exploitation under excessive pressure.

Ye knew that the subtle rules and habits of this era could not be changed by just a few words from him.

If the cakes were delivered directly to the slaves’ mouths, they would all suspect that they were poisoned… maybe the slave owners wanted to kill them and enjoy watching their suffering.

But once grace and kindness are linked to benefits, even a small change is enough to make these slaves grateful.

For example, Ye had just freed these slaves from the last shackles on their bodies, and they all knelt down with tears of gratitude.

——Loyalty has skyrocketed by an unknown amount.

If there were systematic data display, you would probably hear the sound of loyalty constantly increasing by +1, +1 by now.

After giving the slaves initial freedom and dignity, he now gave them another chance.

Ye: "Do you want dignity? Do you want more freedom?

Then use your hands to fight for it.

Do you want glory? Do you want to reproduce?

Then go to the battlefield yourself and fight your way out.

As long as you fight for me and make enough contributions, I can even restore your status as free citizens in the future.

Your children will no longer be born as the sons of slaves or as slaves.

You can live in the sunshine with dignity!"

Every word Ye said at this time made the slaves below more excited and excited.

at this time--

Don't even mention the hesitation about whether to trust the Spartans of the night.

The other slave warriors were already breathing rapidly and were even beginning to fantasize about a bright future.

Ah, their great and benevolent master has painted a blueprint for themselves that is too happy.

If there really is such a future, even if it means dying on this road of struggle for it, we will all rush to it and be willing to do so.

If you have a choice -

At least they want to choose a more dignified path and live with dignity.

And if we say that up to now, Ye’s words have only made their hearts moved.

Then, the comet strike made them see the sincerity of the perfect system.

Ye: “If you capture ten enemy heads on the battlefield, you will have the opportunity to reproduce.

I will personally buy female slaves for you, marry you and have children.

When you kill fifty enemies, you can have your own servants, and even improve your status and position in my place through military merit.

Every time a battle is won, everyone in a position can be promoted to a higher level.

When you are able to lead a team of 100 people, I will completely free you from your slavery and make you true civilians.

even--

Fight for me, create enough merits, and your wives and daughters will have a chance to escape from slavery.

Even if you unfortunately die on the battlefield, I will raise your children and they will still have the opportunity to fight for me in the future.

And inherit the merits you accomplished during your lifetime, and have a greater chance of escaping slavery."

Ye used a very typical military merit system. All the people in the Qin Dynasty were soldiers, and they stood up as a sign of trust.

In this world, everything may betray you. Ideals and glory are unreliable. They may all be pie in the sky drawn for you by the upper class. It is just a beautiful blueprint, but in reality it will always be out of reach.

But the actual benefits will not...

The night gave them a clear hope, a visible chance to escape slavery and regain their freedom.

Even if they unfortunately died on the battlefield, their descendants can inherit their achievements.

If they killed forty-nine people on the battlefield, then their descendants only needed to kill one more person to obtain their own servant and gain the status of an officer in the army.

After winning two battles, there will be great hope of becoming a true civilian in the future.

As long as they dare to fight on the battlefield and are not afraid of death... then sooner or later, some of their descendants will become free citizens and even inherit the glory of their ancestors...

What a gift this is!!

Every item in the night's promise seems to be right in front of us, a fact that can be touched and verified at any time.

Moreover, each of these treatments was a fantastic treatment that other slaves living in that era could not even imagine or believe in their dreams.

In response to this - the excited slaves looked at Ye tremblingly.

Then they remained silent, but a Spartan warrior stepped forward, saluted, and knelt down to show his submission.

Other slaves followed suit.

They shouted in unison: "Your will——!!

I wish to transform into the sword or spear in your hand and die for you! Never changing... Great Master! Thank you for your mercy!"

They looked at the man who gave them hope with respect, as if he were a god.

The night is like the real sun, which revives their bodies and minds and turns a cold and numb heart into heat.

Now they have new expectations and longings for the future. It can be predicted that they will be very obedient and work hard to train themselves in the next period of time...

Waiting for what Ye said, the opportunity to go to the battlefield and make achievements.

The power of human heart is terrifying. When a person's will and belief are strong enough, what a powerful force will be unleashed.

This the Senate did not know, nor did the Roman nobles;

They didn't even consider slaves as human beings, and they didn't know that these "tools" that they usually looked down upon were...

If they are forced into a desperate situation or given a belief, they will unleash terrifying fighting power.

Even for their own freedom, for the inheritance of their bloodline, and for the instinct to reproduce engraved in the DNA of humans and organisms, they will become the most fearless warriors!

Until the day when Ye truly fulfills his promise, this loyalty and belief will burst out again!

For the slaves, this was an opportunity! An opportunity that they only had in front of Ye, the benevolent master.

Once they are separated from the night, they will never be able to escape from their status as slaves, and no country or race will ever have the chance to accept them again.

Even if they escaped back to their hometown, they would be branded with the shame of having been slaves and regarded as inferior.

and so--

They had nowhere to run and no better choice.

Only by following the night can they gain true freedom, dignity and the hope of living a happy life.

For this reason, even if they are required to go to war with any country in the future, they will not hesitate.

Because apart from Ye, no one else will respect their dignity. Even if they are used to fight, they will never respect their personality and let them live and die like a human being, like a warrior!

He (the master) is different...

In the future, perhaps he will become the common belief of all slaves.

At a certain moment, the slave sisters who were kneeling below and looking at the majestic figure in reverence could not help but have such a trembling thought in their hearts.

If that moment really came—

Perhaps... he is the (true) God walking in the world! He is the savior of the slaves!

Chapter 65: AI does not have the same sense of shame as humans, so it can -!

Late at night, when the slave sisters prepared bath water for Ye, they were ready to serve him in bathing.

Only then did Ye remember to ask their names.
