Chapter 274: Ionia's Hundred Ruins Waiting to Be Restored

Rod didn't tell Yasuo about his plan again - Yasuo was a good thug for Rhodes, and the thug didn't need to know the whole plan.

And Yasuo didn't care about Rod's whole plan.

When Rod explained that Yasuo's enemy was the regular army of Noxus, Yasuo readily agreed.

Yasuo wouldn't draw his sword against civilians, but for Noxus' soldiers, Yasuo wouldn't mind sending them to their deaths.

Don't look at Yasuo who left Ionia because of grievances, but he still lacks a good opinion of Noxus, and working as an adventurer in Besilico is just to earn some money, after all, compared to Bilgewater and Piltover, the work here is neither dirty nor tedious, which is completely suitable for Yasuo - Yasuo is not Trist and Graves after all, and he can't do robbery.

After confirming the task, the next step was to negotiate the labor fee, and Yasuo wanted to know if the news in Rhodes' hand was worth the price.

"About your exile...... I don't know much, but there's one piece of information that I think you'll use. Looking at Yasuo, who seemed a little nervous for some reason, Rhodes smiled, "This matter has something to do with your own people - the radicals of Ionia. ”

"The Ionian Consortium, including the Ionian Consortium of Piltover and the Ionian Alchemy Baron of Zaun, the Ionian Foreign Offices are all radicals, and these guys are ...... It's not very clean. ”

Looking at Yasuo, who was full of disbelief, Rod added another sentence.

"Of all the Ionian foreign offices, Shurima is the most numerous, the most powerful, and the most active at the time of the Battle of Ionia - and a more important one, for you afterwards."

"What do you mean?" Yasuo stared at Rhodes, "You mean to say that it was actually ours who killed the elder in the first place...... Own?! ”

"Didn't you have a guess about this yourself?" Looking at the suspicious Yasuo, Rod shook his head in some surprise, "If that's not the case, why did you kill from the Wind Dojo - the reason is obvious." ”

"But here I am, I found another Sword of the Wind!" Yasuo's eyes widened suddenly, "There's an adventurer here, I happened to see the wound he left behind, and the wound of the Sword of the Wind - and he's a Noxian!" ”

"Oh? A Noxians who have mastered the way of the wind? Hearing Yasuo say this, Rhodes was also slightly surprised, "As far as I know, the Noxians believe in strength and price, and they will hone their martial arts, but they will never choose your Ionian martial arts that value talent and often do more than half the effort for mediocre talents - in Noxus, who will have the leisure to learn your way of the wind?" ”

"This ...... That's what I'm worried about. Yasuo sighed, "The way of the wind is the way of the sword of heaven and man, its sword is also fast, its people are like the wind, Noxians...... It's impossible to do this kind of swordsmanship - but the wound can't be fake! ”

"The wind blade enters the body, breaks the flesh and bones, and its blade is invisible, and the blood does not gush." Thinking of his brother's description before his death, Yasuo gritted his teeth, "And just two days ago, I met an adventurer by chance, who killed many of Bilgewater's elite pirates, and the wounds of those pirates fit this perfectly. ”

Wounds?

Rod touched his chin, then waved his hand at a wind blade.

"This wound has never been the preserve of the Wind Sword Technique."

The Wind Blade left a shallow wound on Yasuo's left arm, but Yasuo was stunned.

……………………

In fact, when he recognized Yasuo, Rhodes made up his mind to take him in as a temporary thug, and Rod was confident that he would convince Yasuo - but now there seems to be a bit of an unexpected situation.

And when he was talking nonsense with Yasuo before, Rhodes was thinking about it, thinking about it, and the only breakthrough was Yasuo's wrongdoing.

In Rod's view, the most likely murderer of Yasuo's grievances is the Ionian radicals, and the most direct point is that Yasuo only learned that he was called a murderer after meeting his brother Yon because the elder he protected died in the sword art of the wind - and before, no one told Yasuo about this, whether it was a trial or a hunt, and Yasuo had no way to argue with it.

This is obviously not a normal situation and logic.

And the reason why Rod targeted Ionia's own people was also because of a message that Rhodes got from Zaun by accident.

During the Battle of Zuan, Zak had spied on Takeda Saito - with the help of his flowing body and the cover of the sewers, Zak perfectly copied almost all of Takeda's documents.

In the midst of the complicated papers, Rhodes once saw a piece of news about the Wind Dojo.

Out of some curiosity, Rod remembered the message.

"The plan is successful, and the Wind Dojo is basically destroyed."

As mentioned earlier, there was actually a series of radicals in Ionia, including Takeda Saito, who advocated learning from Noxus and bringing iron and blood to the ancient Ionia.

This group of radicals even walked with the Shadow Stream Sect, attacking their own people when necessary.

The news appeared on Takeda's desk, which meant that the destruction of the Wind Dojo was largely influenced by the Ionian radicals - though to Rhodes at the time, it was nothing more than gossip.

And now, seeing that Yasuo's train of thought seems to have gone astray, Rod has to tell the news as well.

"In Zu'an, I once saw a piece of news on the desk of your Ionian alchemy baron Takeda Saito - the plan was successful, and the Wind Dojo was basically destroyed."

"And after the Battle of Zaun, Takeda returned to Ionia with a lot of looted things, and is now the number one person among the radicals - if he wasn't a spy for Noxus, I'm afraid ......"

"Needless to say." Yasuo closed his eyes in pain, "Don't say it......"

If this was true, it meant that Rod's words would destroy Yasuo's last illusions.

Yasuo really wanted that it was a Noxian assassin who killed the elder - in that case, everything would be Noxus' fault, and he would die with honor as long as he caught the real murderer.

And if it was your own people who killed the elders......

In the three years since he escaped from the dojo, Yasuo has never dared to reason and imagine in this direction.

Even if Yasuo knew, the whole thing was full of suspicion and mystery.

Why did he go to the front line to kill the enemy, but when he returned to the dojo, he was accused of being a murderer - it was clear that countless people had fought side by side with him, and they could prove that they didn't have time to come back and kill people.

Why didn't he even have a chance to defend himself, so he could only flee in embarrassment, and everyone who came to arrest him was fatal, so that when he faced his own brother, he also struck with all his might.

Yasuo remembered the identity of the elder, and remembered the elder's words when he insisted on going to the front.

"And go with the wind, and pay attention to what is behind you."
