Masims did not refute or resist, allowing Gaius to catch him, but Gaius' fist did not fall down because the slaves around him hugged him.

The small riot caused in the square made the officials of the slave management office who had not left look bad. The slave head Aikarus was even more angry and immediately asked the soldiers to arrest him.

Gaius was cut with his hands back and pressed to the ground, and he cursed him even more. The foreman directly slapped his mouth, making his teeth fall off, blood flowing, and half of his face suddenly swollen. Then he couldn't say anything clearly, but his eyes were still staring at Masims fiercely.

Masims never dared to contact him, stood there motionless, even if Gaius was taken away, he did not raise his head.

The slaves were soon led by the foreman to the mine, and only he was alone in the huge square.

At this time, Ekarus, the head of the slave camp, walked over, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "You are doing it right! Those stupid people can't see the situation clearly. The kingdom is so powerful, what role can their little conspiracy play? It's simply a joke!..."

Masims felt his words a little harsh, and he raised his head and asked, "Mr. Ecarus, I am free now, can I leave here now?"

"Of course, you are already a free man now. However, you have been in the slave camp for so many years and have no idea about the situation outside. You suddenly leave here and go to the towns of the kingdom to live. If you are not careful, you may violate the laws of the kingdom and affect your future development. It is better to stay in the camp and serve as a hired worker here. After all, you are very familiar with this place, and you have received a good education and can write Diorian characters. You can become a manager here, which is more conducive to becoming a citizen of Diorian earlier. During your work for the camp, you will gradually become familiar with the city of Turiyi and our kingdom..."

The reason why Ecarus said this was that after receiving the order from the Slave Management Office, he specially sent someone to learn about the pardoned Roman slave. When he learned that he had outstanding abilities, he wanted to cherish his talents and wanted to add a capable subordinate to his camp.

"Thank you for your attention, I will consider it carefully." Although Masims admitted that what Ecarus said made sense, he didn't want to stay in this place for a moment, so he said it a little perfunctorily.

Ekarus also saw it. He still smiled and patted Masims on the shoulder and said, "Go back and think about it carefully. Even if you don't have this plan now, what I said will work within a year. By the way, you can now go to the camp management room to register and receive your slave-destroying bronze medal."

Because this time the pardon about him was very popular, he quickly completed the procedures. Even if he had some rents not been paid, the office staff waived him, and said, "This is a notice specially issued by the Slave Management Office. Thank you for the kind King Davers!"

Masims finally got the slave-destroying bronze medal that all slaves dreamed of: this bronze medal is rectangular, only the size of an index finger, the word "freedom" is engraved in the middle, and there is a number on the top,

The bronze medal is very simple to make and it seems easy to imitate it, but in fact, this bronze medal is just a proof of identity. What is really important to check for inspection by the inspectors is that his name is dismissed from the Kingdom Slave Management Office. You must know that whether it is public or private, as long as you purchase and add a slave, you must register at the Kingdom Slave Management Office, record the appearance characteristics of the slave, give him a fixed number, and brand it on the slave's buttocks.

On the one hand, the slave management office will regularly check the survival of slaves according to the roster. If it is found that they may be abused and tortured, then court personnel may come to the door; on the other hand, once the slave escapes, the slave management office will provide the information of the slave to the inspectors in various towns and conduct arrests. Once captured, not only will the end be miserable, but there will never be a chance to be free.

After Masims' name was eliminated from the slave list, it means that he is already a free man.

Masims carefully placed the bronze medal sticker and walked back to his home with big strides.

When his two children came out to greet him happily, the heavy guilt in his heart suddenly disappeared: I did nothing wrong, my children should not be trapped in this cage, they should study happily in the school in Dionia like other people's children...

"Masims, you...you're sneaking back from the mine! What should I do?! Go back quickly! Go and admit your mistake to them..." His wife Folvia was very panicked. She had a misunderstanding about her husband appearing at home at this time.

"Folvia, we are free!" Masims said to her excitedly, holding the child.

"What did you say?"

"I mean I have become a free man, this is the bronze medal I have won!" Masims handed the bronze medal to his wife.

Folvia carefully read the bronze medal several times, but she couldn't believe it: "This is...really?!"

"Of course it's true. We can leave here! Leave now!" Masims said with a confident expression.

Folvia did not respond, holding the bronze medal in one hand, covering her face lightly with the other hand, and tears flowed down her fingers...

"Mom, why are you crying?" The two children pulled Folvia's clothes with concern.

Masims walked forward, hugged his wife strongly, and said in a deep tone: "Folvia, from now on, we will no longer be slaves! Children will no longer be slaves! We will have a better life!"

"Hmm!...Hmm!..." Fulvia nodded repeatedly with sobs.

Over the past few years, Masims had not accumulated any valuable assets in the slave camp. The family quickly packed up their parcels and walked towards the camp gate.

Seeing the fully armed guards standing guard at the gate of the camp, Folvia and the children subconsciously hid behind Masims.

But the guards not only did not stop them, but congratulated Masims. It seemed that the incident of "he was pardoned" had spread throughout the camp and became a celebrity in the slave camp.

Walking out of the camp, Masims took a deep breath of fresh air. Before he could recall it, he saw someone coming towards him, and his heart suddenly sank.

"Masims, congratulations!" the man said loudly, with a smile on his face, completely different from the sinister and cruel expression he had when he interrogated him in the camp last time.

Masims gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you for your help!"

"It has nothing to do with me, it's totally the kindness of His Majesty!" the man said seriously, and then he asked again: "Now that you have become a free man, what are your plans?"

"First go to Turiy's household registration office to apply to become a citizen of Dionia, and then find a job to earn money to support the family." Masims didn't know what the other party was trying to ask, so he answered carefully.

"This is indeed the most commonly used way of survival for the liberation of slaves, but now the situation has changed." The man's mouth curled slightly and he said.

Masims' heart moved and was about to ask, "What has changed?"

But I heard the man say, "Are you interested in coming to work here? Our intelligence department is directly under the jurisdiction of Your Majesty. Not only is the salary not low, but it is also easy to make meritorious contributions. You will become a citizen of Dionia in a shorter time."

Masims didn't know much about the political system of Dionia, but just from the literal meaning of the "intelligence department" and his personal experience for the last time, he could probably guess what they did. He was very psychologically resistant. The "traitors were scolded by his compatriots in person" was heartbreaking this time in his life. He didn't want to experience the second time again.

"I'm sorry, I just want to live the life of an ordinary person." Masims said calmly.

The man seemed to have expected him to answer like this, and did not show any dissatisfaction. He shrugged and said, "Okay, I hope everything goes well for you! This is the reward we give you, and a little bit of my feelings!"

The man took out a heavy purse and handed it over.

The word "reward" hurt him, and he instinctively wanted to refuse.

"Hold it, you will soon know that living in Tuliyi is not easy, and it is not possible to have money." The man looked at the two children behind him and said seriously.

This made Masims hesitate, and then he felt his wife tighten his arm: Yes, in the past few years, he has used all the hard-earned salary to study the Dionian language and writing, and he has no savings...

He lowered his head, took the purse, and whispered in shame: "Thank you..."

"If one day you change your mind, you can come to the white house next to the inspection office in the outer city of Xicheng to find me. If someone stops you, it will be said that Tratus wants you to come."

Masims nodded, saying that he had heard it, but did not respond. He led the two children, took his wife, carried the package, and walked towards the east.

"Boss, if he doesn't want to, he's just a bait anyway. Even if he doesn't cooperate, as long as we keep an eye on him, we can continue to arrest those accomplices who want to revenge him and avenge the old Roman nobles of Servius."

"The number of Roman citizens in the city of Turiyi is increasing, and we now lack people who really understand them and can gain their trust. What's more, I have checked Masims' past, and his ability is also very good." Tratus looked at the back of Masims' family as they left, and a playful smile appeared on his face: "When he hits the wall, maybe we still have a chance."
