Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

The surrounding orcs were stunned by his sudden aura and subconsciously asked a question.

"What method? The high priest said that only humans can exchange for the divine water, but you no longer have any humans left."

Xu Tian gave a cold laugh.

"Yes, we no longer have any humans, but..."

Xu Tian suddenly raised his hand, pointing his finger at the orc nobles and small merchants in the crowd who were dressed in fine clothes and clearly had some status in the city, and who usually kept a large number of human slaves at home.

"However, this does not mean that you do not have it either."

The moment those words were spoken, the air in the entire square seemed to freeze.

All the orcs, whether they were dirt poor commoners or wealthy people with savings at home, gasped in shock the moment they heard those words.

They understood.

They completely understood the meaning behind the pig-headed man's words.

These words will ignite infighting throughout the city.

"what do you mean?"

A wealthy bear-man merchant with more than a dozen slaves in his household was so frightened that he kept backing away, pointing at Xu Tian, ​​his voice trembling uncontrollably.

"Do you intend to rob our humans? This is Blackrock Fortress. Private killing and looting are strictly prohibited within the city. You are courting death."

Xu Tian did not speak again.

Chu Jian and Niu Niu, who had been standing behind him, also silently stood up at this moment.

They simultaneously drew their iron swords from their waists.

The three exchanged glances, said nothing, and stepped over the stairs, heading straight for Wolf Howling Moon, who had been shouting the loudest earlier.

Although Lang Xiaoyue was diagnosed with poison in his body, he was, after all, a member of a regular army, and his family still had humans they planned to gradually exchange for holy water.

Seeing these three skinny pig-headed men daring to approach him with weapons, he felt extremely insulted.

"You damned creatures! A few lowly pigs dare to set their sights on me!"

Wolf Howl roared and suddenly drew the huge two-handed sword from his back. He was prepared to use thunderous methods to cut the three arrogant pig-headed men into mincemeat to intimidate the restless commoners around him.

However, he had no idea that he was facing three highly skilled players whose attributes far surpassed those of ordinary orcs.

"Take action."

Xu Tian shouted coldly in the team channel.

Just as Lang Xiaoyue raised his greatsword to strike down.

Niu Niu charged forward with incredible speed, like a wild bull.

He slammed hard into Lang Xiaoyue's chest.

"boom!"

Wolf Howling Moon's massive body was thrown off balance by the impact, and the greatsword in his hand was also shaken off course.

In an instant, Chu Jian slid to Lang Xiaoyue's side, the iron sword in his hand flashing coldly as it mercilessly slashed across the back of Lang Xiaoyue's knee.

"ah".

Wolf Howl let out a miserable cry, his legs went weak, and he knelt heavily on the ground.

Xu Tian, ​​however, had already leaped high into the air.

He gripped the iron sword tightly with both hands and plunged it deep into the gap in the armor around Wolf Howling Moon's neck.

"Pfft!"

Xu Tian twisted the hilt of his sword, severing Lang Xiaoyue's cervical vertebrae and trachea.

Fast! Accurate! Ruthless! Without the slightest hesitation.

Those eyes, filled with astonishment and resentment, instantly lost their luster, and his massive body crashed to the ground, blood gushing from his neck.

Chapter 208 Consequences

The whole process happened too fast. From the moment Xu Tian and his two companions attacked to the moment Lang Xiaoyue was killed on the spot, it only took a mere five seconds.

All the orcs in the arena were completely stunned by this scene.

They stared wide-eyed at the still convulsing werewolf corpse, their minds blank.

These three pig-headed men actually dared to kill someone in the city?

And the person they killed was a powerful werewolf officer?

Xu Tian kicked away Lang Xiaoyue's corpse and expressionlessly flicked the blood off his sword.

Without pausing, he walked directly to the three human slaves that Lang Xiaoyue had brought earlier.

Those humans didn't even dare to think of resisting, letting Chu Jian lead them.

Then, Xu Tian, ​​Niu Niu, and Chu Jian, their bodies reeking of blood, led the three humans they had stolen, leaving bloody footprints as they walked towards the summit of the high platform.

When they reached the steps, Xu Tian pushed the three humans directly in front of the peak, his voice icy cold.

"High Priest, these three humans, in exchange for a drop of holy water and a bucket of divine water."

Peak looked at his three teammates, who were full of murderous aura, and felt secretly pleased, but on the surface he still maintained the indifference of a priest.

Without saying a word, he took a drop of milk and a bucket of water from his inventory and handed them to Xu Tian.

Xu Tian took the items and turned to walk to Chen Xu, who was lying on the ground.

Upon first meeting, they immediately stepped forward to help, and together they poured the life-saving liquid into Chen Xu's mouth.

With the combined effects of the holy water and the divine water, the poisonous spots on Chen Xu's body quickly faded, his convulsions stopped, and his breathing gradually became steady.

Only then did the shocked beastmen around them finally recover from their shock.

Looking at the unseeing corpse of Lang Xiaoyue on the ground, and then at the three unscrupulous thugs.

The orc nobles and wealthy merchants who owned large numbers of slaves immediately felt a chill.

They angrily pointed at Xu Tian and the other two, shouting their condemnation at the top of their lungs.

"How dare you, you three lowly pigs!"

"How dare you murder your fellow orcs in public before this sacred altar? Do you have no respect for the laws of Blackrock Fortress?"

"Do you know the consequences of doing this? The city guards will definitely arrest you and hang you upside down on the city wall to dry in the wind."

Faced with the angry condemnation from thousands, Xu Tian didn't even lift an eyelid.

He looked at Chen Xu, who was out of danger, and slowly stood up.

Xu Tian turned around and looked at the indignant orcs with an expression as if they were idiots, his words full of disdain and mockery.

"Consequences? The law?"

Xu Tian's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

"What consequences do I care? My brother was about to die. To save my brother's life, I don't care about any damn laws or consequences."

“You hypocrites, standing here now spouting righteousness and morality, are accusing me of treating the lives of my fellow orcs as a joke.”

"That's because the people lying on the ground waiting to die are not your brothers, not your parents, not your wives and children."

Xu Tian stepped forward and pointed at the crowd.

"Stop pretending to be so noble. Wait until the toxins in your bodies take effect, wait until you desperately need the holy water to save your lives, and then you find that you can't even afford to have a single human being in your household."

"When you can only watch helplessly as your dearest person foams at the mouth and struggles in pain right in front of you, yet you are powerless to help."

"At that time, will you still be able to maintain this compassionate heart? When you are truly in my position and facing despair, you will understand that in this damned plague, the lives of others, even the lives of your own kind, are nothing compared to the lives of your own family."

Xu Tian's words were a slap in the face to every orc present.

All the clamor and curses ceased abruptly in the face of this law of the jungle.

The entire square fell silent once again.

Everyone was speechless after Xu Tian's question.

Yes, if it were me, if my own child was dying, would I care whether that human slave belonged to someone else or if I had stolen it?

I would definitely be like this pig-headed man, with bloodshot eyes, killing and robbing.

The instinct for survival is ingrained in the very bones of these savage creatures.

Just then.

Among the crowd, the tiger-headed nobleman who had previously been forced to take only half of the holy water due to the price increase over the millennium because he had brought two fewer humans, and who had hurriedly run home to find more people, was now standing on the edge of the crowd, sweating profusely.

He had just returned with the assembled humans when he witnessed the murder and robbery, as well as Xu Tian's resounding speech.

He looked at the humans he was holding, then at his own hands, which, despite not yet being affected by the poison due to his strong physique, were afflicted with two types of poison.

In other words, I still need humans to save me.

His eyes, initially filled with astonishment, gradually became confused, and finally, turned into utter madness.

After hearing Xu Tian's words, the tiger-headed nobleman slowly straightened up.

He turned around, his back to the platform, facing the beastmen behind him who, like him, were driven to despair by the absence of humans.

“That’s right, this pig-headed man is right.”

The tiger-headed nobleman's voice was deep.

"I understand now, I finally understand completely that no one else's life is more important than my own family's life."

The moment he finished speaking, the tiger-headed nobleman completely ignored the gazes around him and let out a furious tiger roar.

Then, relying on its massive size, it forcefully smashed through the dense crowd and charged madly into the depths of the outer city, into the mansion area where wealthy merchants gathered.

When he returned to the square about ten minutes later.

All the orcs in the arena gasped in shock.

The tiger-headed nobleman was now completely stained with blood, and his eyes were bloodshot.

In his hands, three human slaves, terrified and unable to walk, were chained together with a still-dripping iron chain.
