Chapter 434, I Was Wrong
The tongue was like a piece of gummy candy, stretched out from the mouth of the corpse.
Wu Heng was shocked to see this scene suddenly.
But he reacted immediately.
Someone was using the tamed beast to destroy the corpse.
Wu Heng waved his empty arm, and the broken wooden chair spun and smashed over.
The tamed beast immediately let go of the corpse's tongue and flew away to avoid it.
Seeing the skeleton servant rushing over with a sword, he turned around and flew out of the open door in a panic.
Grenda and Xiaoxiao were about to chase after it.
Wu Heng said: "Xiaoxiao, go and see where it flew to and who is behind it. Grenda, you stay and warn the surroundings."
The two ghosts nodded, hid their figures, and Xiaoxiao chased the tamed beast.
Grenda flew vertically into the sky to monitor the surrounding situation.
Killing a tamed beast is actually not difficult.
But it doesn't make much sense.
It would be more valuable to find the owner of the tamed beast.
The ghost followed.
Wu Heng quickly stepped forward and checked the bodies on the ground.
Three of them had their tongues pulled out, the remaining one had its mouth pulled out, and one remained intact.
Wu Heng took out a few straw mats and said, "Wrap them up."
Keranmu stepped forward and rolled up the bodies one by one.
Wu Heng put them directly into the space ring.
Outside the door, a large number of skeletons, carrying bloody bodies, walked over from two directions.
The bodies were neatly placed at the door.
There were more than twenty bodies in total, and their bodies were covered with scars from being cut.
He took out all the straw mats in the ring, rolled up two of them together, and put them all into the space ring.
Wait until everything is done.
Reopen the boundary gate and let all the skeletons go back.
Carrying Millicent, he disappeared into the night.
...
On the other side.
A figure quickly approached the building on Lighthouse Street.
He knocked on the door and walked in directly.
The light stone lit up the entire room.
The handsome man with brown hair and blue eyes looked at his subordinates who came in with doubt, "Is there a result so soon?"
Their plan has two routes.
Either the other party goes out to sea to pay the ransom, or finds the location of the expansion area.
The estimated time is about two days before the other party takes action.
Whether it is raising money or investigating.
However, it seems that it is much earlier than he estimated. They arrested people at dusk and took action at night.
The figure at the door paused and said solemnly: "Lord Greco, the operation failed. The other party killed all the people we prepared and took the woman away."
Hearing this news, the brown-haired man suddenly panicked.
For some things, if there is no evidence, you are not afraid of what the association will do, but once there is evidence, no one can afford to provoke the behemoth of the association.
Damn, how could a necromancer fail.
"Imilo personally participated?" Greco asked suspiciously.
"It was that necromancer. He mobilized a lot of skeletons and killed all our ambushes." The voice of the subordinate trembled.
"How is it possible? The entire Lighthouse Street is full of my people. How could he mobilize the skeletons? You are lying."
"Sir, I saw it with my own eyes through the beast taming vision. How could I lie to you?" The subordinate raised his voice.
Greco frowned and pondered, cold sweat kept appearing on his forehead.
He glanced at the other party again, "Are you taming the beast?"
"I let the tamed beast fly in the opposite direction, so it won't attract anyone."
Greco nodded, took out a bag of money from the space ring, and threw it on the table in front of him, "Here are 100 gold coins. If you leave here, it will be enough for you to live a lifetime."
The subordinate was delighted, and just as he was about to step forward, he stopped again, "Sir, please throw it over, I'll take it and leave."
Greco sneered, "When have I ever treated you unfairly."
After that, he grabbed the purse and threw it high.
The subordinate was delighted, looked at the purse, and reached out to catch it.
Bang~!
The sound of the crossbow's string rang out, and a crossbow arrow instantly pierced through the chest.
Then, Greco suddenly jumped up, appeared like a ghost in the dark night, and cut off the opponent's neck with a long sword.
Greco quickly picked up the quilt on the bed, wrapped the body and put it into the space ring.
He cursed in a low voice: "Waste, you all deserve to die for dealing with a necromancer like this."
He sat down at the table and thought deeply.
He calculated various methods in his mind.
"I have to leave the island first, and then find a way to negotiate with the association later."
"Yes, let's leave here before the association reacts."
...
Port.
The guard in charge of the port position of the association looked at Wu Heng and the attendant behind him in confusion.
Then, he frowned slightly and glanced at the figure carried by the attendant on his shoulders.
Although covered by a black cloth, it can still be seen that a person is carried, a woman with long hair.
"Deputy Deacon, what are you doing?" the guard asked in confusion.
If you want to rob a woman, go to a place where there is no one.
It would be difficult for a deputy deacon to deal with such a swaggering person.
Wu Heng said directly: "Go, arrange for someone to inform the association and tell them that the investigation here has come to a conclusion. Please come over, Deacon."
Deacon?
It turned out that he was not robbing a woman.
"Yes, Mr. Deputy Deacon." The leading guard said something to the people behind him, and several people came out immediately, rushing to the center with torches.
Wu Heng continued to ask: "Go and tell the commercial port that anyone who wants to board or leave the port before dawn needs to register."
"Yes, Deputy Deacon." The guard replied and left.
Wu Heng went directly to his cargo ship.
Entered a cabin.
Let Keranmu throw Millicent on the bed.
"Millison, can you do it?" Wu Heng pinched her face and continued to ask.
Millicent still did not respond.
Just like a dead person, the body has no reaction.
Only the eyes can focus briefly occasionally, which seems to be better than when I first saw it.
"Will he be stupid?"
The potions in this world have many functions.
In addition to potions with positive effects, many potions with other functions have also been developed.
It's really a potion that makes people stupid but not dead, and it doesn't feel strange.
He took out another bottle of high-efficiency detoxification potion and poured it into Millicent.
Still no effect.
He thought about it in his heart.
He picked up Millicent and knelt on the ground, with his upper body lying on the window sill and his hips facing outside.
Millicent's figure is already plump, and now it shows an exaggerated waist-to-hip ratio.
Like a ripe and round peach.
Attracting attention.
He quickly glanced at it.
He took out the [Qingming Ring Staff] from the space ring.
This strange item that I exchanged for potions has the effect of making people clear-minded.
Last time, when I was in the pirate village, I used this "staff" to restore the mad whisperer to reason.
I'm not sure if it will work on "Millison", but I can try it now.
If it still doesn't work, I'll have to take it back to the alchemy skeleton and try to make some antidote potions.
After thinking it over, I controlled the strength in my hands.
I whipped it directly.
Snap~!
A crisp sound rang out.
Millicent's body trembled, and his upper body moved slightly.
Wu Heng took a look and continued to whip it twice.
Snap~!
A crisp whipping sound rang out in the cabin.
At the last slap, Millicent let out a painful groan.
A stream of hot air evaporated from the body and drifted in the air.
Still maintaining the posture, turning his head to look over, his eyes were still a little confused, but no longer that kind of empty feeling.
Seeing the figure holding the sandalwood cane, a little joy appeared on his pale face, "My lord, you came to save me."
It really worked.
This thing can also cure diseases.
"How is it?"
"My butt hurts." Millicent whispered.
"Is there anything wrong with your mental state?"
"My head is still a little dizzy." Millicent replied.
Wu Heng continued: "Don't move, lift up your clothes a little."
Millison's body choked slightly, and he carefully lifted the clothes covering his buttocks.
The waist was tightened, and the buttocks were more obvious.
Wu Heng hit it again, and the flesh rolled, and Millicent grunted with gritted teeth.
"Is it better now?"
"My lord, I know I was wrong." Millicent said pitifully.
Seeing that there was no problem, he put away the ring stick, "Okay, get up, the people who kidnapped you are dead, tell me what you know."
Millison climbed up carefully.
The burning pain on her butt made her unable to sit down, but her body was a little weak.
She could only sit carefully on the edge and tell the whole story.
The information provided by the bartender was not much different.
The only difference was that these people had been here the day before.
They should have come to explore the way in advance and gather intelligence.
When they were sure that there was no problem, they chose to take action.
Kidnap the people.
"Sir, have I caused you trouble again? Can the tavern be opened in the future?" Millison asked a little frustrated.
It was not easy to have a stable life.
Life gradually got better.
But now it seems that I may have to return to my original life.
Wu Heng thought for a while, "I'm not sure yet, let's see the situation then."
"Oh!" Millison lowered his head.
The two said a few words and felt Xiao Xiaofei coming back.
Said to Millicent: "You stay here first, I will take you back later."
"Okay, sir."
...
Walked out of the cabin and entered another room.
Wu Heng asked: "How is it?"
Xiao Xiao showed up, "The tamed beast is dead."
"Dead?"
"I didn't touch it. It died while flying, and then fell down and broke into pieces." Xiao Xiao said.
Wu Heng frowned and thought about this matter.
Tamed beasts also have life. If they are not killed by external forces, the biggest possibility is the death of their owners.
When the owner dies, the soul of the tamed beast will also dissipate.
"It seems that the owner of the tamed beast is not the murderer behind the scenes."
"Oh, so that's the case." Xiao Xiao turned half a circle in the air, "Uncle, why don't you talk to the dead directly? Why bother?"
"I have asked someone to notify the association. I will wait for the deacon and investigator to come and then interrogate the body." Wu Heng explained.
This may involve people on the island.
The deacon and the investigator were not there, and after questioning the corpse, he pointed to certain people.
If the other party did not admit it, it would be difficult to confirm it.
Therefore, the normal procedure record is the best way.
"Oh, the association is really troublesome."
...
The sky was bright.
There were footsteps outside the cabin.
Xiao Xiao disappeared in an instant.
Deacon Yimi Luo, deputy deacon Xilagui, two team leaders, and two investigators walked down the wooden ladder.
He looked at the skeletons waiting in the darkness in the cabin.
His eyes fell on Wu Heng again.
Yimi Luo's calm voice sounded, "How is it?"
Wu Heng stood up and said, "The people have been rescued. The kidnappers did not take them out to sea, but took them to the area behind Lighthouse Street that is being expanded."
"Where are the bodies?"
"I brought them." Wu Heng took out two bodies, "Five bodies, three of which were controlled by beasts to have their tongues pulled out while I was rescuing people."
Yimi Luo nodded, "Ask the bodies, and the investigators will record it."
