LOL: The days of cultivating immortals in Rune Continent

Chapter 53 We are the Glorious Merchant Group

"Hurry, hurry, don't let the people from the Reese Protection Society find out!"

"They should have known that we can't go through the front door. Ah Da, you take this empty barrel with you. Go through the front door with it and we'll go out through the iron fence! But you might have some help."

Before the man could finish his words, the man named Ah Da, a thin, short, and somewhat dirty man, said loudly, "Okay! I'll go."

In an alley in Uzeris, under a gray and sandy house, the shop owner who had previously sold the shop to Rowan was nervously hiding with a group of people.

Water is a precious resource in Shurima, especially such pure water. Such water can only be brought from places outside of Shurima.

Legend has it that after the death of Azir, the Eagle Father, Shurima fell into chaos. Without the power of the Sun Disc and the protection of the Ascended, the cold springs no longer gushed out, the wind and sand of Shurima became drier, and the weather was changeable and severe. In a short period of time, the entire Shurima turned from a rich continent into a poor continent.

But those were just legends, and Das did not believe those stories, he did not believe the stories told by the old men.

Ascended beings, gods, the flourishing Shurima Empire? Endlessly flowing cold springs?
Who would believe that!
All he believed in now was what he should do to survive in this fucked up world.

He was unwilling to be a dog for the Noxians because Das witnessed with his own eyes how the Noxians killed the Shurimans and how they exploited the Shurimans. The Noxtora they built in Shurima was a building that looked like a small city wall. He didn't know how much sweat and blood of the Shurimans were poured into it.

Das and several friends who fled to Uzeris carefully transported the wooden barrels. If the water in the barrels could be brought to Kalamanda, it would be enough for Das to open a small shop there and live a good life with his friends.

But just as Das was carrying the water and forming a human wall to deliver the water, a group of footsteps were heard.

Then, there was a man's laughter.

"Why, you from the commercial street, aren't you taking your friends with you? Are you just running away by yourself?"

Das turned around and saw a group of men wearing leather armor, black hats and black tattoos on their wrists carrying Ada.

There were seven people in total, with various weapons in their hands, some holding iron spears, some holding firearms, and some holding crossbows.

"Run." Ada, who was responsible for seducing the guards, had blood on his face. He opened his eyes weakly, looked at Das and shouted.

His life was given by Das. It was Das who gave him food and water so that he could survive. Therefore, he was willing to use his life to help Das.

But now it seems that his help provides little value.

"Mamus, two buckets of water, we are willing to hand over two buckets of water." Das's face fell, he looked at the other party and said in a negotiating way: "One bucket of water to buy Ada's life, and the other bucket of water will be handed over to the protection association."

"That won't do." Mamus shook his shoulders, puffed up his beard and grinned, "Everything in Uzeris belongs to us. If you break the rules and don't give some punishment, then won't everyone dare to make mistakes?"

"Rules? What you call rules are that 80% of the proceeds from a successful transaction must be handed over to you?" Das gritted his teeth and tried to calm himself down.

If a conflict breaks out now, they will be the only ones to die.

Now I think I was too stupid. The "Commercial Street" was full of people from the Protection Society, or rather, Uzeris had been thoroughly infiltrated by the Protection Society. Everyone obeyed the rules of the Protection Society, and many people even chose to join it. Although they were at the bottom after joining, they were able to exploit others and turned from being exploited into exploiters.

What's more, the Protection Society also uses addictive drugs to control most people in Uzeris.

He should think about it more carefully. He should be more careful!

"Okay, just surrender. Lord Cole will forgive you. Go down to the mine and work for us for three years, and we will let you out when the time comes." Mamus said.

"Daz, what should we do?"

"Let's fight them! Going down the mines is no different from dying. They even engage in human trafficking and sell people to pirates!"

"Fight with us?" Mamus looked at the weak men and laughed, "Just you few?"

He raised his crossbow, pointed it at one of them, narrowed one eye, and said coldly: "Let me see. Which part of your body should I take away first? Well, the part above the waist must be preserved. The price of that part is not cheap now."

As he said this, Mamus shot the arrow.

The taut bowstring bounced, and the arrow shot out like a black shadow. Das also pounced on his partner, but in the next second, everyone present was stunned.

Suddenly, a blond young man appeared. He was wearing a cloth shirt with muscles bulging out of it. He had very fair skin and was very tall, over 1.85 meters tall with a strong body. No one knew when this man appeared.

But everyone knew one thing, that is, he was not from Shurima. In the field, Sino held an arrow in his hand and stood in front of Mamu.

"Um, excuse me for interrupting you, what is this protection you are talking about?"

Xino asked curiously. As he asked, he exerted force with his palm and the arrow broke into pieces. Then, he turned around and kicked it to the side.

"puff--"

Beside Mamus, the sturdy man who rushed towards Xino with a gun flew out. On his naked abdomen, there were marks of riding boots. His entire lower abdomen was sunken. He was unconscious and his life or death was uncertain.

"So weak?" Xino frowned as he looked at the man who flew out.

He ranks third in the Fifth Army and seventh in the entire garrison area. He is hailed as the future dragon bird rider. Xino is very strong, but in Demacia, which is full of strong people, he is just a recruit with good talent.

Therefore, Xino never expected that his powerful kick could send the guy flying seven meters away.
"Damn, who are you!" Mamus looked at the man who suddenly appeared and shouted, "Are you from outside?"

"Yes, we just arrived in Uzeris today." Xino smiled at him.

"Then we should be in the same group." Mamus smiled at him and rubbed his hands, saying, "I am Mamus from the Uzeris Protection Society. We are cleaning up the traitors now. You can't stop us."

"Traitor?" Xino looked at Das, and Das was also confused.

He doesn't know Xino at all!

"But he is our guest." Sino pointed at Das with his hand and said to Mamus, "We sold him the water in his hand. The Glorious Merchants will protect their guests."

"The deputy captain said that if you try to steal their goods, then I will break your bones."

Xino said as he walked forward.

Mamus couldn't help but step back, and next to him, the man holding a musket also aimed at Xino.

But how could Xino not know what kind of weapon that was?

Although he was a new soldier, Demacia and Noxus were old enemies. Sino knew that the Noxians had gunpowder weapons, so he rushed forward and broke the musket with just one punch, and knocked the short and stocky man away.

Blood splattered on the sand, and Sino rushed towards Mamus and others again.

Don't kill, but cripple.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Xino had followed Das for a long time. He also listened to the conversation between the two sides and knew that these guys were not good people.

The Demacians, who are full of sense of justice, will not let go of criminals who exploit civilians!

In just ten seconds, Xino had crippled Mamus and the others. They fainted on the ground, covered in blood, but unable to utter a sound.

Then, Sino walked towards Das.

Das looked at Xino and handed over the bucket in his hand tremblingly, "I, I..." He was so scared that he couldn't speak.

"What are you doing?"

Das was stunned.

Wasn't his meaning clear enough?
This means paying protection money!

Then, the other party said something that changed Uzeris's situation.

Xino smiled and said, "I am here to protect you. We are from the Glorious Merchant Group."

"Don't be afraid, customer. The Glorious Merchants Group will guarantee the interests of every customer."

Das: “.”
