Thales screamed his heart out, but no one heard him.
"kill!"
The slaves charged at Huo Linfei, Long Jian, and Yuan Zheng like madmen.
Huo Linfei and Long Jian reacted immediately; even without weapons, their strength was far superior to that of these slaves.
With a single punch or kick, they could easily send slaves flying; for a time, the slaves couldn't even get close to the two of them.
Unfortunately, Yuan Zheng neither resisted nor tried to dissuade him.
They couldn't be persuaded even after 100,000 years, so how could they possibly be persuaded now?
"Sigh, can't love... really bring peace to the world?"
Yuan Zheng closed his eyes in disappointment, feeling the people rushing around him, but they didn't make any move.
"Sizzle!"
The next moment, several sharp spears pierced his body, and blood flowed out along the spears.
Because he was stabbed in the heart, the amount of bleeding was astonishing.
In just a short while, the yellow sand beneath Yuan Zheng's feet was stained dark red with blood.
Even in the face of life and death, he did not abandon his belief in "love".
His battle with the whale shark king ultimately ended in his death.
Ultimately, the evil in human nature prevails.
"Pfft!"
The slaves felt no remorse whatsoever, believing that this was the fate Yuan Zheng deserved.
If it weren't for his guidance in making Tyrell stronger, these people could have survived simply by being good slaves.
Because Thales repeatedly caused trouble, it was they who ended up getting into trouble.
They had long been fed up with this kind of life.
Since there is still hope of survival, how can we remain indifferent?!
"Master!!!"
With eyes blazing with fury, Taire suddenly broke free from the Whale Shark King's restraints and charged towards Yuan Zheng, who was lying on the ground.
Holding the still-breathing Yuanzheng in his arms, Tai Lei cried out in sorrow, "Master, why were you so foolish? Why didn't you fight back?"
Seeing that Yuan Zheng had no chance of survival, his eyes turned bloodshot and his hair stood on end in anger.
"Master, I will definitely kill them to avenge you!"
Upon hearing this, the slaves who had murdered Yuanzheng became even more enraged.
“Tale, you bastard! If it weren’t for your rebellion, we wouldn’t be in this situation.”
"You personally put us in this position, forcing us to turn against your master in order to survive."
"Besides, he is only your master, not our master. If he hadn't taught you to become stronger, none of this would have happened today."
"That old man is just an outsider. What? Are you going to attack your own kind for his sake?!"
"I'm saying this right here today: he deserved to die!"
These people were doing well as slaves, but they are about to lose their lives because of Thales' repeated rebellions.
In order to survive, they had no choice but to kill Yuan Zheng.
The Whale Shark King was right.
You did nothing wrong, but I did nothing wrong either.
What wrong could I possibly have done in order to survive?
So, ultimately, who is responsible for this situation?
Isn't it just Talley and Yuan Zheng, who taught Talley to become stronger?
Therefore, in the eyes of these slaves of the Golden Elephant Clan, Tai Lei and Yuan Zheng were the people they truly hated.
Do they hate the Whale Shark King and the Whale Shark Squad?
Hate, of course I hate.
But at least being enslaved offered a chance to survive, while following Thales in rebellion meant certain death.
In contrast, they preferred to be enslaved, to be a slave.
Their hatred for Tyree and Yuanzheng far exceeded their hatred for Whale Shark King and the Whale Shark Squad.
Hearing the curses all around him, Thales gritted his teeth so hard that his nails dug into his flesh without him even noticing.
Yuan Zheng struggled to open his eyes and looked at Tai Lei, whose face was full of anger. He didn't want Tai Lei to become the next Whale Shark King, so he tried to persuade him.
"No...no, Thales, love is seen because of tolerance. The ugliness of humanity is indeed despicable, but humanity also has a bright side."
"Perhaps I am not sincere enough to move them with love. If you are blinded by hatred and seek revenge for me, the hatred will only spread endlessly."
"Tale, you must not let hatred erode your faith in 'love'..."
After Yuan Zheng finished speaking to Tai Lei, he could no longer bear it and his body turned into specks of light and dissipated on the spot.
Lu Renjia had been waiting for this moment. He raised his hand and summoned all the light particles.
After all, they couldn't very well revive Yuan Zheng in front of the Whale Shark King and the others.
Then wouldn't his hiding be completely pointless?
However, Lu Renjia did not immediately revive Yuan Zheng, but waited for an opportunity.
Waiting for an opportunity to challenge Yuan Zheng's belief in "love".
The Scorpion King was used to this and didn't know what Lu Renjia was up to, so he didn't bother to ask any questions.
On the battlefield, after Yuan Zheng's words, Tai Lei suppressed his inner rage.
However, the slaves did not buy it.
They believed that even without Yuan Zheng's words, Tai Lei would not have dared to kill them.
They are our own kind, how could Thale lay a hand on them!
Thales stood up in grief and anger, roaring at all the fighting slaves.
"You all have the courage to take up arms against my master, so why don't you have the courage to fight against the Whale Shark King!"
"Isn't gaining freedom better than becoming a slave captain? Or are you willing to be slaves for life, to be the Whale Shark King's dog?"
The slaves fell into a brief silence, acknowledging that there was some truth to Thales's words.
But that's all there is to it; there's some truth to it.
They have the courage to fight against their own kind, so why don't they have the courage to rebel against the Whale Shark King?
Freedom is indeed much better than being a slave captain.
But why did they still choose to fight amongst themselves instead of trying to rebel against the whale shark king?
It's very simple: over these 100,000 years, Thales has led them to rebel but failed too many times.
Each defeat resulted in the execution of his own people, while Talley remained unharmed.
Naturally, Thales was able to create spells without any scruples.
But what about them?
They were merely insignificant pawns in Thales's rebellion.
Over time, the slaves had long harbored resentment towards Thales.
They simply didn't show any reaction because they were afraid of his power and his importance in front of the Whale Shark King.
Now that they've reached this point, and are about to die, they no longer have any fear of Thales.
The Whale Shark King saw through the slave's thoughts and suddenly spoke again.
"It seems you've all come to terms with reality, so I'll reward you a little more."
He pointed at Talley and sneered, "As long as Talley delivers the final blow, that person won't take up those three spots; he'll become the slave captain directly."
Upon hearing this, the slaves' gazes toward Tyree sharpened.
She looked like she wanted to devour him.
The Whale Shark King watched the slaves' changing expressions with amusement before delivering the final blow.
He pointed to the hourglass and said calmly.
"Half the time has passed, and Thales is one of the targets. If they're still alive when the time is up, you'll be the ones who die!"
