"Is that so?!" Daves sneered and said loudly, "I am afraid that your former Turiyi colleagues cannot agree with the reasons you said. The destruction of Turiyi is because of the hearts of the citizens. Occupied by the deaths of relatives and friends and the fear of the enemy, and driven by some people with ulterior motives, they have driven away truly capable leaders! The generals chosen in their panic are helpless with difficulties, but ordinary people are driven by interests. The unwillingness to fulfill the promise and grant free citizens citizenship led to a series of tragedies that followed! All this shows that the culprit in the destruction of the old city of Turiyi is the citizens of Turiyi and the citizens' assembly they formed!!!"

Kunogolata sighed slightly, and the face of his tragic daughter suddenly came to his heart at this moment, making him heartbroken.

Polyxis was speechless for a while, and reluctantly said: "That...that's just a special situation--"

Davers interrupted his explanation loudly: "Dionian citizens want to participate in power. Of course, this is okay. Don’t we always do this! The "Dionian Law" has already stipulated,'No distinction High and low, as long as they are Dionian citizens, they can hold the public office of the Dionian Union without restrictions.' And we will also formulate more bills to allow them to further participate in Dionian’s administrative decision-making. .But—"

Davers suddenly raised the volume, and shouted sharply: "The Dionian Senate will never indulge the people and let them have unlimited freedom, so as to wantonly destroy the order and order of Dionian for personal gain. The overall interests, even being used by some people with ulterior motives, will destroy the Dionian Alliance we have worked so hard to build! Anyone who attempts to destroy the beautiful life of the Dionian Alliance today will be severely punished by the Senate! Don't be merciless!!"

Davos's decisive words sounded like a huge thunder in Pollux’s heart, making him terrified, and said in a low voice: "...According to you, most of the city-states in Greece will be destroyed, because-- "

With a bang, the door of the venue was suddenly pushed open, and Pollux looked back subconsciously, and only the patrol captain Matonis of Gurye hurriedly walked to the rostrum in front of the venue.

What happened? ! This is not only a question from Pollux, but also a question from some veterans in the venue.

Daves squinted his eyes, looked at the podium, tapped his finger on the back of the chair, and thought: It's finally here...

Cornerus listened to Matonis's whisper, his face grew in astonishment, and he glanced at Pollux from time to time, which made him fidget.

After Matonis reported the situation, Cornelus had never encountered such a thing before, and for a while, he did not know how to proceed, so he had to ask the audience for help: "Master Daves, please come over."

Davos stepped forward calmly.

Seeing the whispering exchanges between Daves and Cornelus on the rostrum, the veterans became more curious and puzzled. They craned their necks and raised their ears, wondering what they were talking about, vaguely I heard Daves say firmly: "...No! Everything is carried out in accordance with Dionia's law!..."

At this time, Cornelus yelled again: "Senior Judge Terry De Moss, please come to the stage."

The elders were all in a commotion, wondering to each other: What happened?

The three communicated on the podium, and occasionally Tritodmus also asked Matonis who was standing by to learn about the situation.

Finally, Daves returned to his seat, and Tritod Moss stayed beside the podium. Cornelus considered how to speak. He cleared his throat and carefully organized the language: "Yeah. ...... Hmm... sir, just now--"

"Cornerus, please speak up! I am so anxious!" Scombras shouted loudly, and the veterans burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere in the meeting seemed to be dispelled a little.

But Cornelus still looks serious: "Everyone, there was an incident in the city of Turiyi just now. An emancipated slave was hunted down and ran to the Temple of Hades for help..."

The elders suddenly became agitated. Although the Alliance of Dionia was established not long ago, it is not that there have been assaults, but it is the first time that “the victim ran to the gods for help” like this. You have to be more cautious.

Polyxis heard the word "liberated slaves", and his heart felt intensely uneasy. He moved his buttocks back and forth like a nail on a wooden chair.

"The patrol team in the city, led by Master Matonis, quickly rushed to the temple. Under the identification of the liberated slave, they rushed to the scene of the attack and arrested several men who were trying to resist. After an urgent interrogation, the suspect’s account was basically the same as that of the liberation of the slaves..." Tritodmus had already accepted Cornelus’s words, and his eyes shot directly towards the center of the venue like two cold lights: "Polyxis Lord Sri is the messenger behind!"

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.

Polyxis jumped up like a cat with his **** on fire and shouted: "This is framed! This is framed!..."

"Whether it is framed or not, you must go through a more detailed investigation to know." Terry Todd Moss was calm, but his words were like a knife: "Because the situation they confided involves more serious crimes, saying," Your Pollux-sama frequently gave slaves freedom, not out of good intentions, but to control them, using his power to deceive the Ministry of Agriculture, renting fertile land for them, and then most of the income from the land belongs to you...', If the situation is true, this is already a serious violation of the "Law of Dionian", "No illegal possession of land! No restrictions on the freedom of others! ... Wait for several laws"!"

Polyxis's heart beats "pounding", and his mouth panicked defense: "It's not like that! This is not the truth! I...I didn't intimidate any slaves, no! They are all voluntary! Yes! Voluntary! They... voluntarily returned part of their income to me to thank me for the freedom I gave them! If you don’t believe me, go and see, some of the slaves I once released have become official citizens!..."

"For what you said, we will also investigate, and we will never allow a noble senator to be wronged! However, Dionia’s law is the same for everyone, even if you A veteran! Now that you are involved in this case, we will temporarily restrict your freedom until the matter is finally resolved." Terry Todd Moss said expressionlessly, and several patrol members entered the venue. , Under the leadership of Matonis, prepares to go forward to hold Pollux.

Polyxis desperately broke free. In the peripheral vision, he saw Davers who was looking at him coldly. He suddenly realized that he immediately struggled with the surrounding elders: "My lord, this is a conspiracy! Davers's conspiracy! He saw that my efforts threatened his dictatorship, and he used this despicable method to frame me! Everyone, save me! Please save me! Otherwise I will fall today, and it may be your turn next! You..."

The patrol members forcibly "helped" him out, and his words still echoed in the venue.

Polyxis, who was triumphant before, was knocked off the dust in a blink of an eye. This sudden reversal was too irritating, and the elders looked at Daves with complicated expressions.

Daves didn't care what Pollux said, he leaned back on the wooden chair with an air of care.

And then, Torri Todmos’ words made En'alilus, Opheris, Massissacus and other elders tremble with fear: “Considering that this case involves too many personnel, after talking with the consul After discussing with the adults, they decided to enforce martial law throughout the city and prohibit going out until the matter is over!"

The Senate meeting ended in shock. While everyone was still panicking and discussing, Daves had already strode out of the side door of the venue.

"Master Daves, please wait for me! Please listen to me..." En'anilus, who is usually steady, yelled in an almost pleading tone, and ran after him. Olibis, Massissacus and others followed immediately.

This situation and this scene were seen by Kunogolata. He showed a sneer and turned to walk out of the door, but he saw Burkos sitting behind him blankly, murmured: "Polyxis How could Si do such a thing?..."

In this Senate, Burkos and Ansitanos are one of the few senators who didn’t fall into trouble when Kunogolata was in trouble, so Kunogolata said: “The rich people in the past can hardly bear the present Poor."

Burkos raised his head in astonishment, Kunogolata had already walked briskly out of the venue.

…………………………

On this day, the people in the city of Turri were shocked to see the patrol team attacking the mansion of Pollux, and then restricting Enanilus, Orifis, and Massisacus. Wait for the freedom of the elders.

In the afternoon, Crimea also received an urgent letter saying that "there is an emancipation of slaves calling for help from the Temple of Hades". Without waiting for the decision of the Senate, the chief executive of Crimea, who had been ordered by Daves’ secret order, Prov. Tersilaos has ordered the patrol to arrest a small number of nobles who were originally from Crimea. The news that came back made Euricpus and Pleards down again.

In fact, the spy organization headed by Daves, headed by Aristiras, has already grasped everything in its hands, but it just needs a high-sounding reason to throw it out.

The news that "nearly ten senators were detained" was like a great political earthquake in Turiyi, causing much discussion and rumors.

How could Hermes in the hotel not feel the violent vibration in Turriy, he immediately realized that the situation was not good, quickly packed up his things, and prepared to take the boat and return to Sicily.
