Chapter 794: Slave Trading
In the middle of the night, in the border city between East Balam and West Balam, Xifa was feeding mosquitoes in a three-story building, and beside him were Alfred and his assistant Paroni.
"Someone is coming." Paroni, who had black hair and brown eyes, whispered.
Seeing from the window, Xifa saw several carriages coming on the cold road, and they stopped outside a row of warehouses opposite the surveillance point.
The car door opened, and people got out of the car one after another. Through the streetlights outside the warehouse, Xifa saw a gentleman from Loen, with gray temples, wearing a formal suit, and holding a gold-encrusted cane.
Paroni turned to Alfred next to him and said, "Look, it's Dwayne Dantès. This gentleman is said to be very generous. He donated more than 10,000 pounds worth of shares to the Church of Evernight not long after arriving in Backlund." , Is this the upfront investment you often talk about?"
Dwayne Dantès.
Xifa managed to control his expression very well. Now he knows why The World dared to take over his business at the Tarot Club. Originally, Klein was conducting business in the direction of arms trading in the real world.
He looked out the window and saw the middle-aged gentleman walking towards the warehouse door, saying something to the officer on duty, and coming back later to stand with another man.
"Isn't that Haggis? It turns out that he made a deal with Maysailles. I'll go say hello to him." Alfred got up and walked down the stairs.
Xifa knew that Mesailles was a warlord, and his position had always been vague. It was very dangerous for Klein to discuss arms deals with such a person. Of course, this is for ordinary people. But for a "seer" demigod, this degree of danger is completely acceptable.
This kind of surveillance ended quickly. After the transaction was completed, Dawn Dantès left quickly, and the three of Alfred, who hadn't gained anything tonight, also left the small surveillance building and returned to their respective places.
Walking on the deserted street, Xifa's inspiration was suddenly touched, and there was an exclamation in a remote alley, followed by the sound of trash cans or sundries being dumped, followed by cats and dogs barking.
Sifa immediately pressed his hat, easily jumped onto the roof, and silently sneaked towards the place where the fight took place, and saw two men who were obviously not locals suppressing a woman with black hair and brown skin.
One of the men of Intis blood kicked the woman and said cursingly, "Take her back quickly. If Mr. Dulles finds out that the slave has escaped, we will definitely be punished."
Another strong man who seemed to be from Loen covered the woman's mouth, knocked her unconscious, and then carried her on his shoulders, and the two quickly walked to the other side of the alley.
slave?
Xifa immediately remembered many things.
There are many plantation workers in the Southern Continent and Bayam missing for no reason.
George III's apotheosis required a large number of slaves.
Xifa immediately decided to follow, and after going around for a while, he saw a warehouse. Those two men grabbed the female slave and quickly entered the warehouse. Sifa thought for a while and took out a copper whistle and blew it, but the whistle didn't make any sound.
It's just that the surrounding atmosphere was gloomy and cold, and then a spiritual world treasure chest painted with clown patterns came out of the air. Xifa asked Harry, the craftsman, to fix the summoning ceremony on this whistle, so that he could use it anywhere in the future. Summons a spirit chest.
Xifa quickly took out the 'Wraith Cane' and 'Twilight Giant' cards from the treasure chest, and then he transformed into a giant-like soul, disappeared from his body, and floated into the warehouse.
The warehouse was dark, but there was a light in the corner in front of it. Xifa drifted closer and found that there was a basement entrance. There was a wind lamp on the stairs going down, and there was a guard holding a rifle at the bottom of the stairs.
Xifa, who was in a spirit state, easily passed the guards and got into the basement. The basement is very spacious. There are iron cages here, and the iron cages are full of local aborigines in scanty clothes.
They were all chained and thrown into iron cages, placed in those cages like cats and dogs. Excrement and food can be seen in the cage. It seems that these slaves eat, drink and scatter in the iron cage.
The woman who had escaped was thrown into the cage. She fell to the ground, woke up slowly, and found that she had been captured again, and she couldn't help screaming in despair.
A man gave her a slap in the face, and she calmed down, and her eyes gradually became hollow and numb.
Xifa also had cold eyes, considering whether to kill all the guards inside and rescue these poor slaves.
At this time, footsteps came from the direction of the stairs, and Xifa saw more than a dozen people coming down from the stairs, walking in front of him was a man with thick lips, slightly brown skin, and curly black hair tied into strips. He was followed by men one by one, all of them were pale-skinned, with empty eyes, and although they were holding rifles, they did not look like living people at all.
Living corpse!
Xifa took a look and knew what those were, and at the same time knew that these living corpses were controlled by the man in front. There is no doubt that it is also a 'living corpse', and it may also be a 'resentful soul'.
Seeing this man, the two men who were chasing the slave before straightened their backs, their eyes dodged, and they faltered, "Mr. Dulles!"
The man named Dulles snorted and said, "I heard that some slaves have escaped. Do you want to join them?"
He pointed to the living corpse behind him.
The two men knelt on the ground with a plop and begged for mercy: "No, no, Mr. Dulles, please let us go, we have already captured that damned woman."
"Fortunately for you, next time, you are ready to join them."
Dulles glanced at the slaves in the cage, pinched his nose and said, "They really stink, and they can be handed over in a few days. You'd better clean this place, so that these slaves don't get sick."
"Although General Tracy is called the 'Vice Admiral of Sickness', she doesn't like sick slaves. Only by ensuring their health can we sell them at a good price, understand?"
The guard in the basement responded quickly, and then Dulles left, and Xifa also left the warehouse without taking any action for the time being.
Back at the hotel, he was surprised by what happened tonight, but he also felt that it was expected.
The Witch Sect was secretly buying slaves for George III, which Xifa knew before. Unexpectedly, I accidentally smashed a slave transaction involving the "Vice Admiral Disease".
Xifa thought for a while, and planned to tell Alfred about this matter tomorrow. Through Alfred's performance, he could infer the position of the Loen military, to see if they knew about George III's becoming a god, and to see if they supported it.
If Alfred doesn't take action, he will sabotage this slave transaction himself. Even though the great smog in Backlund is over, Sifa still doesn't agree with George III's approach!
