Chapter 252 Response

Nadia's life and death outside is unknown, and her side lacks sufficient weapons and manpower. Wallace outside may bring people in at any time. Leah has never faced such a dangerous situation.

At this moment, many things flashed through her mind, and she also thought of what Laura had said to her before, but even now she still did not regret her decision to save Daisy and Nadia, but she felt a little guilty for Laura beside her. , it was her persistence that put the latter in danger together.

Laura gritted her teeth, her face was full of unwillingness, but it was pointless to complain now. She could only hold the dagger in her hand and snorted, "Don't say I didn't warn you, you don't want to know. What will happen if you are caught, so the best way is to wait for them to attack and die with them, even if you die, it is better than being caught."

Although Leah was frightened when she heard this, she still nodded and poured the gunpowder into the gunpowder pool with trembling fingers.

The next moment, another gunshot rang outside the door, and everyone in the execution room suddenly became nervous. However, after waiting for a while, Wallace and the guards outside did not rush in.

Leah immediately realized that they were at war with other people. Before this fatal moment, the troops were divided into two groups. The group responsible for causing commotion in other places was back again.

Among them were not only the remaining black maids, but also many strong and healthy male black slaves who joined in halfway. When they saw Wallace and others surrounding the execution room, they immediately launched an attack on them.

Leah and others did not miss this opportunity and took advantage of the chaos to rush out of the torture room. The leading male black slave ran at the front waving the pitchfork in his hand.

Leah immediately came to the place where Nadia was lying, but found that the latter's chest was bright red and she had no breath.

Leah felt sad in her heart. There were fewer and fewer brothers and sisters left in the previous tribe, but she didn't have much time to feel sad. In just a short while, two more black slaves fell there, and Hua Laishi and others took this opportunity to reload bullets.

Leah knew they had to leave, but what she didn't expect was that Laura, who had run the fastest before, suddenly stood there motionless. She handed Daisy on her back to another black maid.

Leah followed her gaze and saw the butler Wallace not far away.

There was anger burning in Laura's eyes. Except for the time when she took off her clothes, Laura had kept silent about the scars on her body, nor how they came about, but seeing her current appearance, Leah already understood everything.

"Don't do anything stupid. They have five guns over there. Even if you kill him, you won't be able to come back!" Leah said hurriedly.

Laura heard a flash of hesitation in her eyes. At this time, the two of them had already distanced themselves from the people in front of them. Laura suddenly approached Leah and took the short musket in her hand while the latter was not prepared. As Wallace pulled the trigger, the two sides were more than twenty meters apart, and Laura had never practiced marksmanship. The shot missed the target without any accident, but hit the arm of another guard.

There was a look of hatred on Laura's face, but in the end she didn't delay any longer. As soon as they left, Wallace loaded the bullets and started shooting at them. Leah saw one coming with her own eyes. The black maid who attended them was struck in the cheek.

Leah and others retreated with the injured, but Wallace did not dare to push too hard. After all, there were only five of them, and one of them had an injury on his arm. If they were to fall into a hand-to-hand fight, the casualties would definitely be high.

So Wallace could only watch the group of black slaves disappear into the night.

On the other side, Laeri also drove a carriage to the gate of the manor. In addition to him, Kesi and several other black people were traveling with him. They came from different places, including sailors, fishermen, slaughterhouse owners, etc., but Without exception, they all had worked as slaves in the colonies, or escaped, or were joined by pirates, and eventually they were freed.

Precisely because the same experience gave them general sympathy for their compatriots on the island plantations, a group of people led by Kexi established a secret organization with the purpose of helping those who had escaped from the plantations. Fugitive slaves, so when Laeri found them, they immediately expressed their willingness to help.

But after all, they are all people with serious jobs on the island. In order to avoid being traced and retaliated later, they all covered their faces when they took action tonight.

Under the leadership of Kesi, they quickly killed the guard at the door.

At this time, Leah and others also ran over, and Laeri was stunned. During the previous battle, he found that the movement was a bit loud tonight, but when he received the call, he realized that the number of people this time was larger than expected. Quite a few.

Fortunately, in order to prevent accidents, they prepared two more horses. In addition, the slaves in the stable also drove out Malcolm's two carriages.

However, the pursuers behind them came quickly. Kexi and others jumped out of the car, and while looking for cover to fight back, they shouted to Laeri, "You go first, I will help you buy time. I am not a slave in the manor. As long as I Go to a place where no one is around and throw away the gun and the mask covering your face, and they can't do anything to me."

Another black man who was a sailor on a pirate ship also said, "I am a member of the vanguard on the Lion. If they dare to touch me, they have to be careful of revenge from my brothers on the ship."

Now is not the time to be polite. Not only the guards from Terrence Manor, but also the reinforcements from several nearby manors are already arriving. Laeri nodded to Kesi and others and expressed his gratitude.

Seeing that the appointed time had come, although there were still some people behind who had not arrived, Laeri did not intend to wait any longer and decisively pulled up the reins of the horse. Six carriages full of black people broke through the darkness and drove towards the hope and freedom ahead. go.

Zhang Heng did not go to the beach. Instead, he chose to stay at the place where he lived with Anne and Karina, waiting for the final news. He had done almost everything he could do, and the only thing left was to watch La Erina. Of course, he did not put all his chips on the black gladiator. Zhang Heng also made preparations for Laeri's failure.

But this will undoubtedly complicate things. In addition, Zhang Heng also noticed that Karina on the side was a little absent-minded tonight.

"Didn't you take a break during the day?"

"I...I can't sleep a little bit." The businesswoman showed a somewhat forced smile.

Zhang Heng handed the brewed coffee to Karina, who thanked her and took the coffee. Before she could say anything else, the sailor who came to report the news rushed in, "Captain, Mr. Billy has been received. , the Jackdaw has left the port! Also, the people over there asked me to bring this to you."

As he spoke, he took out five letters from his arms.
