No one noticed that when Li Huailin and the others left, there was one more person in the group. The soldiers did not count the number of people, and Morbor was beaten up so badly that even his own mother could not recognize him. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, because the Duke of Aquitaine had finally left. Fortunately, nothing had happened …
Morbor had, of course, abandoned the dark side for the light. Suddenly, he realized his grave mistake. He did not expect the Duke of Aquitaine to do him such a "great favor". He was so grateful that he felt that even the death of his entire family would not be enough to repay the favor. Filled with gratitude and remorse, he led Li Huailin and the others to the stronghold of the Yaffle slave hunters.
The stronghold of the Yaffle slave hunters was indeed in Makmara City, and it was not far from the city lord's mansion. It was actually in the inner city. Of course, Makmara City was not a big city, so the inner city was relatively small. However, the Yaffle slave hunters had set up a stronghold in the inner city. This was definitely on Morbor's orders. The reason for setting up a stronghold in the inner city was that it was safer. There were fewer people who could enter, and even civilians could not enter. Most people would not expect an illegal slave hunter's stronghold to be in the inner city, so it was relatively safer.
Anthony was already very angry, but when he walked to the entrance of the stronghold, he saw a scene that made him even angrier. A few armored city guards were standing at the entrance of the stronghold. They were even talking to the guards, and they seemed to be chatting happily. This meant that the city guards should also know that this was the stronghold of the Yaffle slave hunters, and everyone tacitly acknowledged the existence of this stronghold.
Seeing this, Morbor felt a little ashamed. Of course, he did not know about this. In order to clear his name, Morbor had to pretend that he did not know about this place. Of course, he could not let the city guards come here. However, the city guards had obviously received money from the other party, and they seemed to be very familiar with the other party.
"This is the place, right?" Anthony asked coldly.
"Yes …" Morbor nodded and did not say much. He was too ashamed to see Anthony.
"Alright!" Anthony walked towards the entrance of the stronghold, but he was stopped by Li Huailin.
"Wait … Although we can just charge in, we are here to save the hostages. The first thing we have to consider is the safety of the hostages." Li Huailin stopped Anthony.
"Yeah." Anthony also came to a realization. Just now, because he was too angry, he almost acted rashly. Now, the other party had a lot of hostages in their hands. If he really rushed in and defeated the other party, what would he do if the other party went crazy and killed the hostages? Glancing at Ravenna, Anthony nodded. "Then what should we do?"
"It's best to figure out the situation inside first. Of course, it's best to know the location of the hostages. First, ensure the safety of the hostages, and we will be in an invincible position. So … "Li Huailin said as he looked at Morbor.
Seeing Li Huailin's gaze, Morbor hurriedly shook his head. "I don't know. I've never been inside. Although this place isn't far from my Castellan Mansion, it's not my property. They found this place themselves and only informed me about it. I didn't take the initiative to look for them. They were the ones who came to look for me, so I've never been inside this place."
What Morbor said was true, and Li Huailin believed it too. In fact, he would not go in if he encountered such a situation. However, he still said, "What's the use of you? Someone, come out and kill …"
"It's understandable that the Duke wants to execute me …"
"Shh!" Just as Morbor was about to express his loyalty, Li Huailin suddenly saw about a dozen people walking out of the stronghold. What Li Huailin noticed was that five of them were wearing iron shackles and were being dragged out. Based on their skin color and clothes, he could basically confirm that they were tribesmen from the Gangara tribe.
"Tyre!" Ravenna's reaction also confirmed Li Huailin's thoughts. Sure enough, Ravenna was a little excited when she saw these people, but she was still pulled back by Li Huailin.
"Wait …" Li Huailin said. Five people from the Gangara tribe, and a dozen people who looked like guards. Could this be the people who delivered goods to Tigara? Li Huailin looked at the time. It was really close to the time of the auction. It seemed like they had made it just in time.
"Are they the people who delivered the goods?" Anthony also reacted and immediately asked.
"Yes." Tigara nodded. He knew the leader of the group. Naturally, it was someone sent by the organization to cooperate with him.
"They should have lost sight of the teleportation formation. Let's go ahead and intercept them," Li Huailin said.
"Okay." The few people roughly understood Li Huailin's plan and immediately nodded.
There were twelve guards in this group. The leader was Deacon Sora of the Yaffle slave catching team. As today was the first auction, Sora was personally escorting the goods. He would not be following the team for the next few days. The first delivery of goods was for five people. The quantity was not a lot. It was mainly to test the waters. Of course, it would be best if they could sell it at a high price. The reason why they were so daring to walk on the streets was because they had already bribed everyone in Makmara City. From the city lord to the guards, they would not care about them. It was almost the same in Kairam City. The second reason was that slave trading was legal. Therefore, no one would know if the slaves were legal or illegal. Usually, no one would come up and ask.
The transportation distance was not long. It was only from the stronghold to the teleportation formation, and then to the auction location. Even if they were to stroll on the streets, it would only take twenty minutes. Sora was very confident. After all, he had taken care of everything. There should be no problems …
"Sir Sora …" While he was thinking, Sora suddenly heard someone calling him. He turned his head slightly and saw a figure in the alley next to him. Although the other party was standing in the alley, it was not very dark in Xiaoxiang. Sora could clearly see the other party's face. Obviously, Sora quickly recognized him.
"Sir Tigara?" Sora was slightly stunned. Previously, it was said that this was the first time the two departments were working together. Therefore, Sora and Tigara were not very familiar with each other. However, they had met many times because of this matter. Of course, this time, he was transporting slaves to Tigara. He did not expect the other party to come to Makmara City himself. Could it be that he was going to personally welcome him or the goods?
No matter what the reason was, since he saw Tigara, Sora definitely had to go up. Therefore, he directly led the team towards Tigara. As he walked, he said, "Sir Tigara, why did you come personally? Didn't you say that I would send the goods to your house? You …"
Before Sora could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a strong wind blowing on his right side. Sora instantly knew that he was being attacked. He was also a person with good martial arts skills. He immediately wanted to dodge, but it was completely too late. Before his body could move, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder. Fortunately, Sora's reaction was fast enough. He immediately unleashed his combat energy, twisted his body, and rolled in the direction of the opponent's slash. Even so, Sora's entire right arm had been chopped off by the opponent, and blood was flowing non-stop.
As he rolled away, a few screams sounded behind him. Sora looked back with his peripheral vision and saw that a few of his guards had already fallen. It seemed like they were ambushed. However, this ambush was really too sudden. Moreover … how could it be related to Tigara? Sora could not figure out what was going on. However, it was obviously not the time to think about this. This was because the person who chopped off his right arm was once again attacking him. It seemed like he was ready to kill him directly.
"Not so easy!" Sora also risked his life. His remaining left hand took out his sword, and then he gathered all the combat energy in his body and slashed towards the person who was rushing towards him. With a loud "clang", the two combat energies collided. Sora felt a huge force coming towards him, and his combat energy collapsed upon contact. Sora violently spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body flew backwards before crashing heavily into the wall behind him.
The opponent's strength was much higher than his, and it was much higher. Sora instantly understood this, but it was too late. His body was heavily injured, and Sora felt his life slowly leaving his body as he fell to the ground. The person who attacked him could not be bothered to care about him, and directly attacked his guards.
About a minute later, Sora and his twelve subordinates had all fallen to the ground. Li Huailin also slightly clapped his hands. "The quality of this group of guards is slightly higher than before. They can't even be insta-killed with one slash …"
"Indeed." Anthony also nodded. "It seems that this stronghold is more important, and the strength of the guards is also very strong."
"You are?" The five people from the Ganga Tribe were all safe and uninjured, but it was a little strange. It was obvious that the two people who appeared were here to save them. They understood this, but they did not know them. The Ganga Tribe rarely had contact with the outside world, so they had almost no human friends. Why did these two people save them?
Just when they were about to ask what was going on, they heard someone shouting "Tyre" from behind them. They turned around and saw Ravenna running over. In an instant, they understood what was going on. It should be Ravenna's reinforcements.
"Alright, let's talk about other things later. First, tell us the situation inside the shop," Li Huailin immediately said.
