Chapter 1243: The Fire of Vengeance
The slaves freed by Rhodes were not old and weak, women and children - one of these guys counted as one, they were all strong men, and their buyers were the arenas of Noxus!
After such a group of "gladiator reserves" were liberated, the vengeful fury that erupted could completely destroy all enemies.
Although the reasons for becoming slaves are different, some are betrayed, some are captured by slave teams, and some are captured by sand thieves, those who trade slaves are also their undoubted mortal enemies in the complete slave trade chain!
Suddenly freed, the slaves were naturally indignant - if it weren't for Rod, this moment of courage might have been able to make a few waves earlier, but with Rod's thread, this force exploded completely.
So, on this dark and windy night, the door of Hengaro, the great merchant of Nash Lamei, was broken, and Hengero, who had been drinking at night and was still drunk, was almost torn to pieces by the angry slaves.
The slaves then lit a fire, burned Hengero's shop, and then stormed the Nashrami guards before fleeing.
The next day, the news quickly spread throughout Nashra's America—the vengeful slaves had written his indictment in the blood of Hengro and his servants, and even though the Nashra-American Autonomous Government realized something was wrong and cordoned off the scene, it was not able to stop the spread of the news completely.
The invisible slave trade was laid out in the open, and the participants were a big man on the Autonomous Council......
The Nash La-American Autonomous Councillors, who were now the real big men of Nash La-America, were now in charge of the whole of Nash-La's affairs, and now a self-governing councillor was openly involved in the notorious slave trade, which had just been emphasized, and this naturally aroused popular discontent.
Of course, things don't seem to be so bad as long as the discontent of the people doesn't reach the tipping point of the popular uprising - but the dead Hengaro is a well-known Zelas party, who is in charge of the port of Nash Lamei, and who has raised an unknown amount of money for Zelas......
In this case, it is naturally impossible for those self-governing councilors who intend to fall to Azir to let this matter go easily!
In the Autonomous Council, voices soon appeared to thoroughly investigate the matter and give an account to the people—such a proposal stood on the moral high ground, and although it contained its own thoughts, it was quite loud and sound when put forward openly.
If it's really thorough...... I'm afraid that the entire Nashrami sect is not very clean, and the line of the slave trade is very long, and no one can guarantee that this matter must have nothing to do with them!
It's just that because the situation affects the whole body, at this time, the first choice of the Zelas faction is to make concessions, they hope to be able to make the other party let go of this stubble through a certain amount of compensation - for Zelas, the port of Nashi Lamei is extremely important, although he already has a big city like Nerema Tree, but the Nerema Tree with the back of the Giant God Peak is not good at trade, and at this juncture when the war is about to be completed, it is better not to have extraneous branches......
However, will Rhodes give them a chance?
Just as the appeasement agreement was about to be reached, the Zelas faction received another piece of bad news.
The escaped slaves attacked Zelas's caravan, freed new slaves, and robbed Zeros of a batch of custom-made weapons and equipment!
When they got the news, everyone was shocked - how is this possible?
You know, in order to prevent Azir's men from intercepting it, Zelas's arms trade has always been by sea - taking goods from Nashramme and landing at Karamanda by sea, which is also Zelas's sphere of influence.
A group of slaves...... What qualifications do they have to snatch Zelas's supplies and slaves at sea or on the territory of Zelas?
However, when the follow-up news came, all doubts were solved.
It turned out that on the night of revenge, although the slaves seemed to be running away, they had already driven the Scarlet Thorn away before escaping - the harbor was also set on fire that day, and people thought that the Scarlet Thorn had burned down, but in fact, it was not the Scarlet Thorn that was burning that night, but a makeshift patchwork of spare sails, scrap wood, and lifeboats.
All the sailors who knew about the Scarlet Thorn had been killed in the turmoil, so much so that one could only judge the situation by the ashes and coke of the harbor, and everyone naturally assumed that the Scarlet Thorn had been burned.
Coupled with the slaves' "running away", no one thought that they were actually suspicious!
Two days later, the investigation team of time finally found the registration record of the Scarlet Thorn, looking at the drawings of this armed merchant ship, counting the batteries on the ship, people finally found that if they could master this ship, I am afraid that they really have a certain ability to rob......
