Chapter 47: The Strong Eat the Strong (Part 2)

The number of apprentices in fairy tale circus is very unreasonable. Generally, circus will only retain apprentices with similar number of senior members as the backbone of the circus’ future training, but fairy tale apprentices have a huge scale of nearly fifty people, and the number of people is not fixed. There will often be new blood supplements like Goron, and some people will die suddenly. The management method of the training camp is more like training an army.

Each fairy tale apprentice has its own number. From "one" to the back, there are as many numbers as there are. The number is not fixed. Apprentices with low numbers can challenge apprentices with high numbers. After the challenge is successful, both parties exchange numbers. Or if the apprentice on the top dies, everyone behind the row can upgrade to one level.

It is worth mentioning that apprentices with high numbers can suppress or even order apprentices with low numbers. The larger the number gap between the two, the greater the rights and authority. The "first one" can even directly command "last number" to commit suicide.

From various perspectives, this is too abnormal.

As the last newcomer, Goron was honored to obtain his own number, "No. 47", or... "Tail Number".

Although they were apprentices in circus, everyone spent this morning in heavy work. As mentioned before, the fairy tale circus was in short supply at this time, especially the serious shortage of labor at the bottom. In such a large circus, the main tent, dozens of sub-tents of all sizes, needed to be removed and folded.

Even more than people, all kinds of wild beasts need to be fed and cared for, and all kinds of large acrobatic performance equipment have to be cleaned up and sorted out. Nearly a hundred servants and temporary handymen were originally responsible for these tasks, but they all ran away and died, but now they can only be completed by these apprentices. Goron even suspected that the dark forces in Luochao Port planned to delay the progress of the fairy tale evacuation operation in this way.

As for the official fairy tale members, they don’t know where they are hiding except during the performance.

Goron was assigned a task to deal with the corpses, the piles placed in front of them in the morning. He needed to thoroughly inspect the items on each person, sort out the relics of the deceased, pick out useful things, record the causes of each person's death, and then burn all the bodies.

Apart from the necromancer, I'm afraid no one is willing to deal with a bunch of corpses, not to mention that many corpses die miserably and have a hideous face. Many people believe that staying with corpses for a long time will be cursed by resentful spirits and will turn into undead creatures after death. This has indeed been confirmed by some magicians that the high concentration of death energy is the main reason for the formation of natural necromancers. Therefore, cleaning up corpses has always been a job that no one is willing to take over, no matter where it is.

As a thin newcomer, Goron was hit in this chore. Seeing other apprentices leave with a sympathy or gloating expression, Goron himself didn't care at all. After finding that there was no one around, he skillfully tore off a corner of his clothes, wet the nearby drinking water and wrapped it on his face. He ruled the black-handed ogre kitchen, and the corpses in front of him were not even as good as the amount of work he had to deal with every day.

Geron's work was very meticulous and serious. He carefully investigated each of the dead, peeled them all over, and recorded their gender, race, physical characteristics, cause of death, location of the fatal wounds with straw paper. Then he gathered the equipment on the dead, made detailed records, and finally dug a shallow pit, piled up firewood, and burned all the bodies and their clothes before their death.

In the magical world, death does not mean the end. An experienced high-level necromancer can even easily obtain more and more accurate information from a corpse than when the person was alive. Therefore, the handling of the corpse is necessary, and when there is no priest, flames are often a good choice.

No matter what, these tasks are too simple for Goron. He completed the work that had originally required three people to do all day, and now it is less than the afternoon. However, the pig-nosed instructor strictly followed the rules he set. Because he was late in the morning, Goron had no food for a whole day.

Although she is wearing a human skin, Goron is still an ogre in her bones. For an ogre, although her stomach is very easy to hungry, it is not difficult to find something to fill her stomach. After all, the recipes for ogres are extremely wide.

But Goron did not do this. He endured unbearable hunger silently. After his work, Goron did not wander around, but stayed quietly in a daze. It was not that he didn't want to find clues to his family, but that Goron knew that during the initial period, there were very likely that he had eyes hiding in the dark and staring at him secretly. During the time of daydreaming, he actually had many things to do, such as studying these gadgets that he originally thought would be useless.

The day passed quickly. It was almost dusk. When an apprentice came over to inform Golong of the gathering, the little ogre, who was so hungry that he looked like Venus, stood up with difficulty and followed him to the meeting place.

"Today's mission was not done well. The scheduled plan was only 70%. So I'm happy to tell you that everyone's dinner share will be halved tonight. Then, after I check the completion of my personal mission, all the unqualified guys will be rewarded with a few whips."

The clown girl gently rubbed the rolled whip in her hand. Her scarlet tongue licked her lips, and said words that scared all the children: "Do you lazy guys really think that you can stay in the fairy tale by learning to turn somersaults and throwing the flying knife? If you really think so, then I promise you won't live the last one... By the way, the new little guy."

The clown girl looked at Goron with her head down and suddenly giggled, "You may not know yet that our fairy tale apprentice training camp may not be much the same as those of other circuses. Everyone here is an orphan we picked up or a slave we bought. Everyone here is a scum that no one cares about when they die. Of course, you also include you. I can tell you very responsibly, no, it is to tell you that everyone here who will eventually survive and become a formal fairy tale member, at most, only 10% of the total number of people standing here, and there may even be only one or two people. As for what happens to those who fail, I won't say much, anyway, everyone understands it. So,

You must know that everyone around you is your potential competitor, and it is an enemy that may seize your right to survive. What you have to do later is to suppress everyone around you, defeat them, and ravage them. There are no means to do it. The only premise is to abide by the rules of the game. Because only those who can stand in the end can live proudly. Hum... The following few words are indeed my personal suggestions. You can choose to listen or choose not to listen. I will not punish you for this matter. However, as your seniors in the last class, I think my opinions are still of great reference value."

Before this, even from countless stories, Goron had never heard such explicit words that encouraged the apprentice to kill each other and suppress opponents. This was not like training a new circus acrobat, but was simply trying to train a unique killer in the most cruel and bloody way.

but......

Isn't this what Goron wants to get?

strength!

The purest power!
