Chapter 162 This place has been changed into a talent market

The technology of the other world has brought about a qualitative improvement in the strength of the Human Empire, and the Human Empire has also brought about tremendous changes in various aspects of human life in the other world.

In the original world, humans, as an intelligent creature without an innate racial hierarchy, cannot upgrade themselves without doing anything like many sub-humans or aliens, and are at the bottom of the food chain.

Human countries only exist in remote areas of the continent. Becoming a slave in the powerful countries of the central continent is considered a good ending. Most humans are treated like livestock.

After the Human Empire arrived, they quickly resolved the aliens’ oppression of humans within their sphere of influence. After all, the Empire’s handling efficiency was so high that even the German Seer would have to light a cigarette. Soon, the aliens could only be seen in laboratories and museums.

The remaining people who met the Empire’s demihuman standards were absorbed into the Empire’s sphere of influence. At the same time, in order to facilitate management, the Empire relocated a large number of humans and demihumans from other places to the Holy Kingdom and the Theocracy to enrich the local population.

It was the first time for many sub-humans to know that they were also human beings, and it was the first time for the vast majority of humans to know that humans could actually become overlords.

Under the rule of the empire, they ate decent food for the first time, were able to sleep in beds, and experience the dignity that they deserved as human beings.

The belief in the God-Emperor spread particularly quickly among these humans who suffered from the bullying of the aliens, and soon produced a large number of fanatical believers.

As for the process of integration into the empire, bumps and bruises are inevitable, but these local natives will adapt, they must adapt.

The empire’s construction of the other world is ongoing every moment. The six major temples where the portal was originally located have now been transformed into a group of fortresses.

The construction of hive cities has also begun at several locations in the Theocracy and the Holy Kingdom. For example, next to a hive city construction site of the Theocracy, Pandora stared blankly at the huge construction machinery in front of her.

Pandora Actor is a level 100 NPC in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Ainz’s “own son”, and the only spy in the Great Tomb who has infiltrated the Imperial Army. Although the Great Tomb has sent out monsters with stealth skills, they have all been caught by the Human Empire one by one, and only Pandora has survived.

At the beginning, Pandora was still collecting intelligence seriously, but soon it found that there was no need.

The Great Tomb of Nazarick, which had never been conquered since its establishment, was conquered in a very brutal way, with absolute strength directly crushing it.

This fact dealt a huge blow to Pandora, especially when it saw that Gao Kangda, the strongest unit in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, was actually being transported back by the Mechanicus like a pile of stones.

Pandora was so emotional at the time that she almost couldn’t maintain her transformation. If Ainz hadn’t escaped successfully, Pandora would probably have surrendered herself in despair and asked for death.

For all the NPCs in the Great Tomb, players like Ainz are the real core. As long as Ainz is fine, everything else can be abandoned.

However, Pandora has no way to contact Ainz now. The human empire’s research on magic is becoming more and more in-depth. Pandora is worried that if she activates communication magic without authorization, she will be tracked and eavesdropped.

Coupled with the fact that it has had increased contact with the Human Empire in recent times, it is even more certain that the Great Tomb of Nazarick will not be able to defeat the Human Empire.

For example, Ainz had invested a lot in equipment produced using rune technology, but it had not had much effect. On the other hand, the Empire had been able to achieve a breakthrough and mass production in a short period of time.

Even the soldier Pandora is currently playing can be given a laser gun engraved with ten runes, a combat dagger engraved with six runes, and a shell breastplate engraved with eight runes.

It could feel that these products processed by runes had undergone qualitative changes. Such powerful scientific research and production capabilities were beyond its cognition.

So after comprehensive consideration, Pandora decided not to contact Bone King without permission. The more it tried to do something now, the more likely it was to mess things up. So it has been serving as a soldier honestly during this period of time.

Today it was assigned to look after the construction site. It must be said that to Pandora’s aesthetic taste, the creations of the human empire are all very schn (beautiful). Looking at the huge construction machinery, it feels that many of its troubles can be put aside for the time being.

Just as Pandora was stunned, she noticed two people getting off the bus opposite.

The Human Empire has built public transportation for some major cities and locations in the other world, greatly facilitating the flow of people and goods in the other world.

Although the vehicles used for common transportation are some vehicles temporarily assembled by the Mechanicus, and their drivers are all retired auxiliary soldiers, the common characteristic of these people is that they seem to have a paternal grudge against the accelerator, so don’t expect too much comfort.

However, it is still a very interesting experience for most people in the other world who could only walk or take a carriage before. Now Pandora is at a relatively important construction site, so it is normal for people to come. The reason why the two people this time can attract Pandora’s attention is because it happens to know them.

One of the two people who came was a middle-aged man with a bald head and small eyes, dressed as a businessman.

The other one was a cute child with rabbit features and wearing a maid uniform, but her curled-up hands were actually as thick and deformed as steamed buns, and were covered with scars.

Of these two people, the middle-aged one is Osco, a big businessman in the Bahas Empire, who is responsible for the operation of the arena. The one who follows him is a demihuman called the Headhunter Rabbit, who is his bodyguard. Although he looks cute, he is actually a man with a bad personality. After the Human Empire officially took over the Bahas Empire and incorporated it into its own rule, Osco very tactfully surrendered to the Human Empire and offered almost all of his property.

His timely performance earned him a good impression among the relevant officials of the Empire. Relying on the good initial impression, Osco was able to become one of the local agents of the Human Empire and obtain the goods produced by the Human Empire.

Thanks to this, he gained wealth that he had never imagined before.

Even his favorite and most important arena was not closed by the Empire, but certain restrictions were placed on the form of performances, and occasionally Space Marines would go in to compete.

Feeling that he could take advantage of this opportunity to grow bigger and stronger, Osco brought his headhunter rabbit to a Theocracy slave market that he was familiar with, hoping to buy some alien and subhuman slaves from there.

The Theocracy was the first region entered by the Human Empire and was also the location of the portal. The Empire’s military deployment here far exceeded that of the Bahas Empire.

Along the way, they saw many Space Marines, heavy combat units, and other powerful men of the Human Empire.

“Do you feel anything? How strong are the people here?”

Although he knew that the Human Empire was a behemoth far beyond his imagination, Osco still asked out of curiosity.

The headhunter rabbit has the natural ability to sense the strength of the opponent. Although this perception is very vague, it is enough to provide a general direction.

Since coming to the Theocracy, Headhunter Rabbit has almost always been in a tense state.

“It’s very scary. There are many people who can kill me. And that soldier over there, I even sense the same aura from him as the Sorcerer King before. This human empire is really terrifying.”

“That’s it.”

Osco was not afraid of the description of the headhunter rabbit. Instead, he became more excited. Especially when he saw a group of dark angels passing by, his eyes lit up.

The Dark Angels noticed Osco’s unusual, fiery gaze and glanced back at them.

“Pervert! If you want to die, don’t drag me down with you!”

The headhunter rabbit was so scared that it quickly jumped to the side, trying to keep as much distance as possible from Osco.

Are you kidding? Any one of those super soldiers called Space Marines could kill him directly. Even though the culture of the Empire is different, they even classify sub-humans like him as humans.

But I have never heard that it is polite to look at a strong person of the same sex with lustful eyes. Fortunately, the Dark Angel ignored them and walked away.

“Damn it, can’t you control your perverted interests?”

“But, but, such a beautiful body is right in front of me, how can I resist not appreciating it?”

The headhunter sighed. Osco was a very good employer, with high pay and little work, but his aesthetic sense was different from that of ordinary people.

To put it simply, this guy just likes the strong and muscular body of the strong, and it would be even better if there are scars on it.

Osco did not take the Headhunter Rabbit’s words to heart, but went straight to Pandora, who was considered to be very strong.

“Hello, is this still the slave market?”

Osco asked, pointing at the hive that was rising from the ground.

The nest is now more than 200 meters high and can be seen from afar.

As far as Pandora knew, there had indeed been a slave trade there, but it had now been banned.

“The place you mentioned no longer exists here. It has been renamed the Talent Market.”
