Chapter 166: Chapter 161: The Human Tragedy
When the three races invaded, they said they would rule Earth, and humanity could only survive as their servants.
What is a servant? Serving tea, fetching water, doing laundry and cooking?
No, Wang Zhenguo and the others knew that in the eyes of these Cosmic Martial Artists, servants were no different from cattle and sheep, with no distinction whatsoever!
They drove humans into the slums, forbidding them to set foot in the urban areas, just like humans driving cattle and sheep into pens, keeping two hundred million humans as livestock.
Every so often, they would come to the slums to select and capture humans. Anyone they took a liking to had to serve as a servant, or they would be executed on the spot if they dared resist.
Over the past two years, countless humans have been taken by them. At first, humans were unaware, until a man with severed legs was discarded back to them like trash, and the survivors in the slums realized just how miserable the life of a servant was.
Serving tea and water was what servants had to do, but humans could never stand upright; they had to kneel, move on their knees, and lift the cup above their heads... Any mistake would lead to immediate death.
The same applied to all tasks; standing upright was never allowed, they had to remain kneeling.
Many humans couldn’t bear this suffering and chose suicide to end their lives.
Those who didn’t commit suicide were like the man thrown back, severing their legs, walking on their knees.
The pain was immense, but for survival, they endured this agony through gritted teeth.
But some were even more unfortunate.
If their master was in a bad mood, they would suffer inhumane torture, both physically and mentally traumatized.
This was what these Cosmic Martial Artists considered a servant.
Not only that, among the three races, there were ordinary tribesmen at the Basic Level, unable to bully humans like the strong ones, so they went to the "Beast Fighting Arena" to watch these humans slaughter each other, blood splattering, flesh falling off, making them feel thrilled and excited.
Countless young humans died in the Beast Fighting Arena, only the victors could survive. For survival, they had to tear each other apart, using every means to kill the other; as long as one didn’t die, the slaughter would never cease...
Humans, knowing all this, became afraid, no longer thinking they would just be servants doing laundry and cooking. To them, life in the slums was like heaven, and leaving it would mean facing the torturous hell.
"All humans, come out!"
Suddenly, a sharp voice echoed throughout the slums, Tang Yan and the others exchanged glances, seeing fear in each other’s eyes.
"Stay calm, stay calm, just like before, keep your head down, don’t speak," the middle-aged man said hastily. "Wang Jun, how is your arm?"
"Uncle Tang, don’t worry, this arm is already useless," Wang Jun said with a calm face.
"That’s good, and Yan’Er, Lili, are you both ready?" the middle-aged man looked at Tang Yan and Lili.
Their faces were covered with grime, and their bodies were cloaked in thick clothing, making them look bulky.
"Alright, let’s go out."
Then, they pushed the door open and stepped outside.
At that moment, the narrow alleys of the slums were packed with people, all pressed closely together, heads bowed silently.
Wang Jun, Tang Yan, and the others did the same, squeezed among the crowd, heads bowed, silent.
In the sky, two Cosmic Martial Artists from the Giant Eye Race, with only one gigantic eye on their faces, nodded, then began walking step by step in the void.
"You." Soon, one of the Cosmic Martial Artists from the Giant Eye Race pointed, and all the humans raised their heads slightly to look in the direction of the finger. The crowded alley suddenly parted, revealing a vacuum space where a man stood dazed, his face turning from wooden to terrified, but quickly, he looked determined and shouted to the sky:
"Fuck you all, your whole fucking family..."
"Bang!"
Clearly, the man knew he couldn’t escape, but he would rather die than be humiliated as a servant of these aliens, so he cursed loudly, but before he could finish, his words were replaced by the sound of an explosion, and his body exploded, flesh and blood splattering, covering the surrounding humans with shreds and blood.
"Courting death," the Giant Eye Race’s Cosmic Martial Artist said coldly, its huge eye continued scanning the crowd.
Humans were even more afraid, trembling with their heads down, feeling like they were in an ice cave, praying constantly that they wouldn’t be picked.
"You!" Immediately, the Cosmic Martial Artist from the Giant Eye Race pointed at another human. Having learned from the past, the Giant Eye Race gave no time for response, and with a grab of the hand, that selected human looked at himself in terror, out of control, suddenly lifted into the air, standing upright in the sky, unable to move.
"You!" "You!" "You!"...
The two Giant Eye Race members strolled through the void, pointing their fingers, and one by one, humans went directly into the army of servants, unable to resist at all.
......
In the Cosmos, space twisted, and a Cosmic Battleship with a Bailan glowing bottom appeared abruptly.
"Celestial Spirit, hurry, Earth is just ahead," Wang Xu urged continuously.
He hurried all the way and spent two days, finally seeing Earth.
Looking from afar, Wang Xu felt slightly relieved, at least Earth had not been damaged or destroyed, just like when he left, crystal-clear waters, a bright blue sky.
But soon, Wang Xu’s breath stopped.
He saw spheres made of Star Ancient Ore floating outside Earth, orbiting around it.
"Energy Balls!" Wang Xu’s heart sank, Energy Balls were products of cosmic civilization, used to absorb and store Cosmic Energy, providing power, electricity, energy for advanced technology... The appearance of Energy Balls indicated the invaders had been here for a long time.
"Damn it!" Wang Xu clenched his fist, wanting to spread his Spiritual Consciousness to explore Earth and check if his family was safe.
But he dared not.
Wang Xu did not understand what kind of strong beings were amongst the invading cosmic races; if his Spiritual Consciousness covered over, he would be immediately discovered... Wang Xu had not confirmed his family’s safety, he could not easily expose himself.
......
The Giant Eye clansmen spent a full hour selecting, and behind them, over a thousand people had already gathered, hovering in mid-air, unable to move.
"Alright, let’s go." One of the Giant Eye clansmen said.
Upon hearing this, the humans below sighed with relief.
"No, I want to select one more." Another Giant Eye clansman said, and the humans’ hearts instantly tightened again.
The giant eyes swept through the crowd, every human held their breath, continuously praying in their hearts, their hearts beating vigorously.
"Hmm?" Soon, this Giant Eye clansman walked forward, his gaze falling on Tang Yan, Wang Jun, and others.
"You..." The Giant Eye clansman pointed out, where the finger pointed, all eyes converged.
It was an especially burly man.
Qiu Tuyi!
"You are an Earthworm Race member." The Cosmic Martial Artist of the Giant Eye clan said, "Why are you here?"
Qiu Tuyi coldly stared at him, silent, his large hand slowly moved to his back, ready to pull out the Void Ancient Soldiers from the Space Ring at any moment for a fight.
"You are a slave." After a moment of silence, the Giant Eye clansman spoke.
"Tell me, who is your master?"
"I am not a slave, I have no master." Qiu Tuyi replied coldly.
The giant eyes slightly narrowed, and the Giant Eye clansman extended his palm, suddenly grabbing, causing thousands of people around to hover all at once.
"If you don’t speak, all these people will die." The Giant Eye clansman said.
With a slave here, the master must be not far away, being able to own a Void Level slave must be due to the previous rulers of this star, these rulers possess immense wealth, even have Void Ancient Soldiers, which makes them covet.
Qiu Tuyi’s facial muscles twitched, among these thousands of people were Tang Yan, Tang Yan’s father, and Wang Xu’s entire family.
"It’s him." After hesitating for a moment, Qiu Tuyi pointed his large hand at a short, lewd man.
"You... I’m not!" That short, lewd man instantly widened his eyes, hurriedly explained, fearing that if he spoke late he would indeed be killed unjustly.
"Poof!" "Poof!" "Poof!"...
In an instant, dozens of human bodies exploded, flesh and blood drifting down from high above.
"I have a pair of eyes that see through everything, able to discern if you are lying." The Giant Eye clansman said coldly, "I’ll give you one more chance, if you still don’t speak this time, they’ll all die, and so will you."
Qiu Tuyi’s forehead broke out cold sweat, he had initially intended to randomly accuse a scapegoat, to him, it didn’t matter if other humans died as long as his master survived, but unexpectedly his trick was immediately seen through by the Giant Eye clansman.
"It’s me!" As Qiu Tuyi hesitated, a resolute voice suddenly rang out.
All eyes looked over, falling on a bloated figure in the sky.
It was Tang Yan.
"Master!" Qiu Tuyi exclaimed.
"It’s you." The giant eyes landed on Tang Yan, "Hand over all your treasures."
"I have no treasures." Tang Yan said.
She was not lying, when Earth was overrun, all items were plundered by aliens, the original gold and silver jewels, Earth Coins all lost their value, she was left with nothing.
The Giant Eye clansman was displeased, he could see that Tang Yan was not lying.
"Humph, no treasures, then go be my servant." Immediately, the Giant Eye clansman seized Tang Yan in his hand, and along with thousands of people, soared towards the city.
......
Meanwhile, a figure in a black robe silently passed through the atmosphere, flying towards the First Safe Zone.
"Ahead is the First Safe Zone." In the sky, numerous Cosmic Martial Artists were flying back and forth, these were all Cosmic Martial Artists of the three races, each heading their own way, completely unaware of Wang Xu passing by.
"This..." Wang Xu came above the First Safe Zone, just took a glance and his fury uncontrollably surged up crazily!
On the street, a Cosmic Martial Artist was leading a completely naked human by his hand, the human crawled on all fours, humiliation and pain etched on his face, while he walked down the street with a smile, as if leading a pet.
"Huh?" Suddenly, far away, thousands of figures soared, Wang Xu looked up, glaring furiously.
"Tang Yan!!!!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets on Qidian (), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read on .)
