Chapter 493: Saltpeter Smuggling
Translator: 549690339
“The Divine Wizard Selection is a grand ceremony held once every ten years in the Thousand Islands. There will be a large number of fireworks orders at the last minute. Sigh…Lu Zi, I really didn’t expect that my sister would actually have her eyes on this business. She asked you to smuggle a large amount of saltpeter from the Flame Domain to be used as a raw material for fireworks.
Thick smoke and fire rose from the dock below the Astorokis. Among them were countless people who were injured by the explosion.
Blood flowed all over the ground. The people closest to the warehouse were the most severely injured by the explosion and flames. Some of them even had their limbs blown away, leaving only half of their bodies lying on the ground.
“If it was just smuggling, I might still be able to protect my sister, but now…” Yosuke Sakai had a look of regret on his face.
“The smuggled saltpeter that was stored in the cargo hold of the Astrologgis suddenly caused an explosion, causing countless casualties among the surrounding innocent citizens. Luzi, this matter has blown up. Even if I want to help you, I can’t…Sigh.”
The young man’s tone and expression were completely opposite.
Saltpeter was not so easy to explode. Moreover, why was the Astorokis fine for so long, but at this time, an accident happened after Yosuke sent someone to check?
Liao Zixuan recalled that when the Astorokis docked, it suddenly appeared around the port, but deliberately did not approach the ship. It was just the warriors waiting outside.
Now that the explosion had occurred, the warriors of the Grand Ceremony swarmed forward, as if they had rehearsed this beforehand. They surrounded the Astorokis and sealed off all the entrances and exits.
“Lord Yosuke, you…How could you do such a thing! “Lu Zi’s eyes were wide open, and her entire body was trembling.
She ran to the edge of the deck and looked down at the tragic scene at the port. Roko was not stupid. She had already reacted to everything. Moreover, this was no longer a conspiracy, but a blatant conspiracy.
Thump thump thump thump!
The sound of footsteps came from the stairs. In the blink of an eye, the warriors of the Grand Fuxi came to the deck and aimed their weapons at Roko and Vivian.
The rest of the passengers on the Astorokis were all shocked by the sudden situation. Everything happened too quickly. First, it was the explosion, and now, it seemed like the warriors were trying to catch the criminals.
When the passengers finally came back to their senses, they raised their trembling hands under the warrior’s halberd. Some even squatted down with their hands on their heads. In less than a few minutes, the entire Astorokis was under the control of the Grand Priest.
“Roko, don’t blame me for being heartless, but for the sake of the Sakai family, I can only do this. Geckos live by cutting off their tails.
“Take the prisoner away and send him to prison!
Yosuke Sakai waved his hand, and the samurai began to approach Roko.
And that was not all. When Sakai Yosuke’s gaze shifted from Roko to Vivian and the astrological girl Meiji beside her, he did not hesitate and immediately ordered again,”
“Take them with you!”
“You! They’re just passengers on the ship. What right do you have to arrest
When? Roko saw that Yosuke wanted to involve Vivian and the others, she immediately shouted to stop him.
However, Sakai Yosuke clearly had more than one target from the beginning.
He glanced at the furious Roko with contempt and said indifferently,”
“I can temporarily believe that the other passengers on the ship are innocent, but these two people…Obviously, they have a close relationship with you, Luzi. One of them is even from the Flame Field. Perhaps he is related to this incident.
“Besides, what right do I have to ask you? I’m now the acting head of the society, and you, Luzi, have been fired. I suggest you keep your mouth shut.
“Take them all away!”
Looking at the approaching Grand Priest Warriors, Vivian and the wolf cubs had two choices. They could either be taken away or…Resist.
Liao Zixuan cast the ” Detection ” skill on the samurai, including Sakai Yosuke. The game panel showed that they were all around level 20, just like in his previous life. For Vivian, who was now level 40 and had reached the
Extraordinary level, she could easily deal with them without the wolf cubs.
Roko was also aware of this, which was why she tried her best to stop the man from provoking Vivian. But now that the situation had become like this, Roko cast a pleading look at the little girl.
Don’t make a move here!
Vivian read out the message that Roko was anxiously conveying to her.
INOC only ama ne use them to blow up the matter and make it irreversible, but he also used this to threaten Roko.
If they didn’t obey obediently and surrender, once a dispute broke out, all the warriors of the Great Fu Sect would have to focus on dealing with them. However, if that happened, they wouldn’t be able to spare any manpower for the rescue at the port.
Many of the citizens were now in danger from the explosion. They were heavily injured and had fallen to the ground. If they were to be rescued at the first moment, they might be able to save many lives.
Resisting was not only an additional crime, but it also meant that you chose to abandon the countless lives below the port.
To Luzi, this was already a general..
