Chapter 248 The Great Crocodile
Da~da~
Inside a dimly lit tunnel, Osian was leading a young nobleman toward his treasure vault.
Osian was once a slave trader who made his fortune through slave gladiatorial combat. Even now, as an official, he still keeps many slaves under his command.
Not only that, he also owns a significant number of shares in the slave trading guild in the capital.
Although this wasn't the first time Osian had brought these noble scions to his treasury, this time, a smile he could hardly hide was clearly on his face.
A smug, confident smile, even tinged with a hint of smugness!
The roguish young man next to him saw this scene, and the suspicion in his eyes dissipated a bit. As for why he was suspicious? It was because not long ago, he had learned from elsewhere that there was a large crocodile in Osian.
Logically speaking, while a giant crocodile is rare, it shouldn't be talked about like this. After all, what he learned from others was that Osian had obtained what seemed to be the strongest giant crocodile in the capital's history. Although it hadn't gone into the water yet, as soon as it did, all the other giant crocodiles would instantly become small crocodiles.
His first reaction was that it was just hype. After all, Osian was a slave trader, and if he spread a little news, the price of his slaves would rise. Maybe it was just a marketing tactic.
However, hearing this still made him, who loved slave gladiatorial combat, very curious. As several of his friends said the same thing, he became more and more curious. So today he came to Osian's gathering. If this crocodile was really as powerful as they said, then he would just buy it and it would definitely be very cool.
And soon, this giant crocodile will reveal its true colors.

The ancient gate was opened, and what came into the eyes of the young nobleman was countless iron cages of various sizes. The iron cages formed a square square. The square was not large, but it would still seem quite spacious if only a few people entered.
Each iron cage contained a slave, who remained completely silent, calmly watching the two men.
Because of the dim lighting and the fact that it was the young nobleman's first time here, the eerie gazes made him feel somewhat afraid. Perhaps to hide his unease, the young nobleman wiped his hands and then pretended to be calm as he spoke to Osian.
"I didn't come here to see these people."
"What about the legendary giant crocodile?"
Osian noticed the young nobleman's unease, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he followed up on the young nobleman's question and pointed to the square below.

The young nobleman looked over in confusion, only to see the sound of chains rattling suddenly coming from the previously empty square.
However, before the young man from Guizhou could figure out what was going on, he suddenly heard a loud bang from below.
boom!
Suddenly, an iron gate seemed to be subjected to tremendous force, flying out instantly and slamming into the door of the iron cage opposite!
boom! ! ! !
Such a powerful impact actually blasted the iron gate open and smashed into the slaves inside!
boom!
A splatter of blood appeared as the slave was crushed to death by the flying iron gate.
The sudden and dramatic change left the young nobleman stunned. Before he could recover, heavy footsteps echoed from below once more.
Soon, a figure emerged from the cage that had lost its iron gate.
It was a giant, a monstrous giant. He was three meters tall and enormous. He was completely naked, his only clothing being the shackles on his limbs, the iron ring around his neck, and the steel teeth and iron mouth that replaced the lower half of his face.
this.........
Witnessing the giant's imposing entrance, the young nobleman was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment. It wasn't until after a long while that he slowly opened his mouth:
"This...this is...that giant crocodile?"
"Yes."
Looking at the young nobleman's demeanor, Osian's eyes were full of pride. Merchants are often most confident when showcasing their most prized products.
"Is he... Shirogane?"
The young nobleman asked tremblingly, though he already had a vague answer in his heart.
"gold."
really!
The young nobleman's pupils dilated in shock; having received a positive answer, he was even more astonished.
Gold tier!
In any country or any place, this would be considered true strength, a level that many people struggle to reach in their entire lives.
And yet, this powerful figure has now been bound by slave shackles, becoming a pet to be manipulated and a prisoner! How could this not be shocking?
"Well, isn't that a big crocodile?"
It's not just a big crocodile, it's a giant golden crocodile! If it were placed in a slave gladiatorial contest, it would be a devastating blow to the other slaves.
If it weren't for his status as a slave, he could have participated in the main tournament of the God War and become one of the strong contenders, right?
Isn't this too exaggerated?
The young nobleman could not hide his shock, but after the shock subsided, fear began to fill his eyes.
"Are you...are you sure he's a slave?"
"Won't he open the shackles?"
It was normal for the young nobleman to be afraid, because in the past few hundred years, there had never been a case of a Gold-ranking person being enslaved. This made him wonder if the small iron ring of slaves could really restrain this beast-like fellow.
He even considered running away, fearing that the guy might break free and charge at him at any moment, leaving him with no chance to fight back!
"Don't worry, although the craftsmanship of slave iron rings is not as good as it used to be, this one is specially made. I not only hired several masters, but also used special materials from the Gear Country, so you don't need to worry too much about its safety."
Seeing that Osian said this, and that the giant had been standing still obediently, the young nobleman gradually felt relieved.
"I...I...can I take a look?"
"no problem."
Osian knew what the noble youth meant, so he snapped his fingers, and a moment later, several more iron cage doors opened, and several slaves who could already be called crocodiles by outsiders came out.
After they came out, they surrounded the giant and assumed a fighting stance.
"start."
With Osian's order, a brutal slave gladiatorial contest began to unfold before the eyes of the young nobleman. Watching the violent figures in the arena, the young nobleman's expression gradually became excited, even somewhat agitated.
"Him! He... what's his name?!"
"Iron Mouth".
