Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse
Chapter 687, Rotten to the core
Most of the slaves in the cabin were women and children, which made Wu Heng begin to doubt the identity and purpose of the ship.
Release the little one and float it aside.
"Uncle, are you a bad person?"
Wu Heng glanced at the hanging Kingdom flag and the somewhat panicked Kingdom sailors on the deck.
"It's not completely certain yet, maybe they are the family members of the pirate village that was wiped out." Wu Heng said.
Pirate islands and pirate villages also exist.
After the pirates were killed, the women and children also needed to make some local arrangements.
Basically they won't be killed together.
"I don't feel like a good person." Xiaoxiao muttered to the side.
"Then let them stop the ship for inspection." Wu Heng said, and then said to the skeleton behind him: "Let Philippa come over."
The skeleton left quickly, and then came over with Philippa and the fifth princess 'Brittany'.
He followed Wu Heng's gaze and looked forward, "Yeke Kingdom's ship."
Wu Heng nodded and continued to ask: "Is it possible that the bandits came back?"
"Are you talking about pirates?" Philippa put his hand on Wu Heng's shoulder, "We are almost at the kingdom's port. Have you seen the pirates at the door?"
"Then there should be something wrong with this ship." Wu Heng looked at the other ship and planned to go around and leave, and said to Philippa, "Go and shout to have the three ships stop for inspection."
Philippa was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up, "Damn, I love the official ship."
Then he quickly walked into the cab, picked up the microphone and said: "There are also Kingdom ships ahead. Stop the ship for inspection. Repeat, stop the ship for inspection."
The sound was carried through the ship's speakers and echoed across the sea.
Everyone on the headquarters ship walked out of the cabin and looked at the kingdom ship in the distance.
The sailors on the Yeko Kingdom ship were startled by the loud shouts.
The movements of his hands were a little faster, but he had no intention of stopping. He looked like he didn't hear the nod, but accelerated and left.
At this moment, everyone felt that something was wrong. Normal ships, even if they did not want to contact the association, would not do such a thing.
Seeing that the ship had no intention of stopping, Wu Heng rolled over onto a bone dragon and said, "Stop the ship."
…
Huhuhu~!
There was a sound of breaking through the sky, and several bone dragons flew into the sky with people.
Forced to land on the opponent's ship.
Then, the magic circle flashed, and the old mage Gianvito teleported over with two other level 18 professionals.
The faces of the people on the deck instantly became ugly. They held the weapons at their waists and their eyes wandered for a while, but they still did not draw their weapons.
"Several adults from the association..." A burly man walked out of the cabin quickly, wearing a captain's uniform and a standard saber at his waist.
He shouted, then looked around at the people on the deck, his pupils shrank again, and he stepped forward and asked, "Is there something wrong with this?"
Wu Heng also looked at the situation on the ship. Kaweina, the captain of the fifth team, said, "Are you from the Yeke Kingdom's fleet?"
"We are the fleet of the Kingdom of Yeko and are on a cruise mission." The burly man replied.
The uniforms of the Navy of the Kingdom of Yeko have wave patterns, which also represent the identity of the Navy.
"I just asked you to stop the boat, why didn't you stop?" Wu Heng came over and asked.
"This..." The burly man licked his chapped lips, and then said: "We have never seen such a big ship. We thought it was a pirate and wanted to leave first."
"Can't you see the association's flag?"
The man hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "I understand, it's because we are ignorant, adults, please don't be surprised."
He said and handed over a bag full of coins.
Wu Heng and others frowned instantly.
There is absolutely no logic in what this man said.
First he pretended not to hear, then he said he thought he was a pirate, and now he gave money directly.
It was obvious that the lyrics were not well composed.
"What's on board?" Wu Heng asked next.
When the burly man saw that no one took the money bag, his face became even more ugly, "I didn't pull anything."
As he spoke, he put away his money bag and subconsciously took a small step back.
One hand was behind his back, gesturing to his own people.
Wu Heng looked at the other party's little movements and said directly: "Search the ship."
The burly man's eyes suddenly condensed, and he shouted loudly, "Do it."
Zhi~bang!
The words have not yet fallen.
A bolt of lightning hit the burly man's chest, and his body flew backwards. He vomited blood and didn't wait to stand up.
Then the skeleton attendant Kerimu rushed to the opponent's side and slashed across his neck with his long sword.
The head fell and blood spread out.
The battle is basically completed in an instant.
Before the others could react, they saw the head rolling down to their feet.
All the sailors froze in place, looking frightened and struggling.
"The association handles cases, and those who cooperate with the investigation will survive." Wu Heng said coldly.
"I, we surrender." Someone said and threw away the weapon.
With the first one, the rest also threw away their weapons and chose to surrender.
There was a continuous sound of weapons being thrown on the deck.
Wu Heng said: "Tie them up."
Kavina and others immediately took out ropes and tied up all the others.
Everyone on the ship, including the dead burly man, had reached level 12.
The rest are also at level 10, or even lower.
In the eyes of the association headquarters investigation team in front of them, beating him was no different from beating a child.
Even if they resist, the outcome will not be different.
"Is there a problem with the ship?" Association elder 'Tapani' asked directly.
These three ships belong to the official ships of the Kingdom of Yeko. They can be stopped and inspected.
Now that they have killed people, things will be different.
If there is no reasonable reason.
Then it may be a handle for the Kingdom of Yeko to fight back.
"There is a problem." Wu Heng said.
Elder 'Tapani' asked, "What is the problem?"
Several people in the headquarters looked over.
Wu Heng said calmly: "We will know after searching the ship."
As he spoke, the people who inspected the ship also came up.
One of them saluted and said: "Elder, several adults, there are a large number of women and children imprisoned in the cabin. Initially, we understand that they are people from nearby villages. They have been arrested and we don't know where they will be transported."
The deck was quiet for a moment.
He looked at Wu Heng with surprise.
There is really a problem.
"Elder, how do you think we should arrange it?" Wu Heng asked the elf elder.
"Since it is confirmed that there is a problem, the identities of these three ships need to be investigated. Let the people of the Holy See deal with the emotions of the prisoners first. All these crew members and sailors are detained and awaiting investigation." Tapani said directly.
"Yes!" The members of the association took action immediately.
Wu Heng also said to Philippa: "These three ships will be incorporated into the fleet and continue to move forward."
It will take about a day to go to the city of Netal.
The fleet cannot stay for too long.
"Okay, I know." Philippa also started to act.
...
Wu Heng took the flying dragon and returned to the frigate he was riding.
Just landed on the deck.
The magic circle lit up again, and Janvito and the other two followed closely and teleported up.
"How did you find out that there was a problem?" Elder 'Tapani' asked.
The dwarf investigator also took out a notebook and began to prepare to record.
Facing this investigator, Wu Heng always felt that he was being watched by a camera and would be taken out for evidence at any time.
"I asked the ghost to explore the interior and found the people imprisoned inside." Wu Heng replied.
The three of them were not surprised that the necromancer had a ghost.
It is a professional characteristic.
But ghosts cannot always find the target. At least they must first notice that there is a problem with the fleet and then arrange for ghosts to investigate.
"Then why go on board and say so much? Just arrest them directly." Tapani said again.
Wu Heng continued, "I can't completely determine the identity of the other party. There are some islands and villages controlled by pirates in the Emerald Sea. Sometimes there are some pirates' families who are transferred for investigation or resettlement.
So, stop them and see their reaction.
After boarding the ship, their words obviously did not match up. One moment they thought we were pirates, and the next they sent money. But they did not explain the escort of the people on the ship. Obviously there is a problem."
The elder nodded, "Not bad, very sharp insight."
The old wizard Janvito asked: "So, they are not the fleet of the Kingdom of Yeko?"
"It's not certain yet, let's ask the corpse later!" Wu Heng replied.
The dwarf investigator was recording the conversation between several people.
While talking.
The skeleton dragon fell from the sky, and Philippa jumped off the dragon's back and said, "Those people have been detained. A total of twelve people were killed, all here."
With a wave of his hand, several corpses wrapped in straw mats were taken out.
Among them was the burly man who was killed.
Wu Heng glanced at the corpses and directly released [Talk to the Dead] to one of them.
The dead corpse sat up suddenly, looking over here with turbid eyes.
Wu Heng asked directly: "What is your status in the force or organization?"
"The members of the White Wing Gang are now the defense forces of the Talei City in the Yeko Kingdom." The corpse replied.
Several people frowned.
Gang members are also the city defense forces of the kingdom?
And how did the White Wing Gang get this name? It sounds like all the members are not very smart.
"How did you become a soldier?"
"We don't know either, but the army is recruiting people, and gang forces are also on the recruitment list."
That makes sense.
When the city of Rentam was in chaos, the gang members in the city were also used.
The gang leader was appointed as the commander or captain, and all the gang members under him became thugs.
Wu Heng then asked: "Where are you taking the people in your cabin?"
"Take them to Bejaia City, there will be someone there to receive them."
"What are these people used for?"
"Not sure."
Wu Heng thought about the last question.
Then he asked: "Did you catch these people?"
The corpse answered solemnly, "I heard from the leader that these were arranged by the officials of Netale City. There are clothes prepared on the ship. We can wear them and escort so many people."
After the five questions, the corpse fell back to the ground with a bang.
Wu Heng and his men all frowned.
Although it has not been fully figured out, the general situation is clear.
These people were originally members of the White Wing Gang. Netale City began to recruit soldiers on a large scale, and the gangs were also included.
So they changed from gang members to soldiers in the city.
They were originally responsible for the city defense. This time, the officials of Netale City arranged for them to escort the population and transport them outside.
The elder of the association, Tapani, and the old wizard, Gianvito.
Even Philippa and the dwarf investigator looked serious.
Apparently, this was a case of human trafficking by local officials.
The Kingdom of Yeko was rotten to the core.
They started trafficking people abroad.
Wu Heng glanced at the investigator behind him, "Mr. Sim, have you recorded it?"
The dwarf investigator nodded, "The recording is complete."
Wu Heng continued to release [Conversation with the Dead], and the second corpse sat up.
“Who is the official whom the Lord has given you to transport people?”
"Not sure."
"Are there any other ships doing this besides you?"
"Not sure."
"What's your leader's name?"
"Patrice."
"What is the cause of the chaos in the city?"
The corpse replied, "The troops stationed in Netale City fought with an external army, and many people died."
One last question.
Wu Heng thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know about the death of the local deacon of the association?"
"have no idea."
Wu Heng then continued to question the three corpses, and asked about the White Wings Gang and the civil unrest in the city.
Wu Heng stood there and sorted out the information he had obtained.
Regarding the transportation of women and children, the identity of the officials behind the scenes was not revealed, but after entering the city, we can start from the leader of the White Wings Gang.
He must have known who the officials were who arranged all this.
The second point is the problem of Netale City.
The previous chaos was caused by the battle between the city lord's palace and the city defense army and an external army trying to take over the city.
Until the end of the fight, it was impossible to tell who was who on both sides.
The person currently in charge of this city is still the original city lord.
These people did not know much about the death of the local deacon. They only knew that for a long time, the local association hall was closed and it was difficult to see association members.
After the information is compiled.
Wu Heng looked at the three level 18 professionals, "Elder, Dean, do you have any questions?"
"Not yet. Don't destroy the remaining corpses. They might be used later." Elder Tapani said.
Wu Heng nodded and said: "Dispose of these corpses after questioning, and sweep up the remaining grass."
The corpse that had released [Conversation with the Dead] was thrown into the sea, the rest was wrapped in straw mats, and Wu Heng put the space ring away.
Elder Tapani asked: "How long does it take to reach Netale City?"
"It's only one day away."
"Okay, let's go back first and let us know when it's almost here," Tapani said.
The old mage Gianvito released [Teleportation] and returned to his ship.
Wu Heng took Philippa and returned to the cab.
The fifth princess stood up, frowned and asked, "What happened? Why did you kill the navy?"
Philippa looked at her, "How do you feel?"
Faced with Philippa's confident rhetorical question, the fifth princess frowned, feeling unsure of herself.
Said: "I believe Wuheng Island Master, I just want to know the reason."
Philippa calmly sat aside and said: "Your officials, members of the United Gang, wear navy clothes, traffic in women and children, they are more ruthless than us pirates, and we will not sell our own people."
The fifth princess frowned deeper, her eyes full of suspicion, and she looked at Wu Heng fiercely, "Island Master, is it true?"
Wu Heng said: "The current situation is like this."
The fifth princess stopped talking and sat down on a chair nearby, her face gloomy.
Wu Heng also fell into thinking.
We will arrive in Netale City tomorrow, and the purpose of our trip is about to begin.
Will being in the city bring danger to myself?
Can the murderer of the local deacon be caught?
These are all problems to be faced.
Even if these two are solved, how should I enter this political struggle and improve my reputation?
Somewhat difficult to handle.
Wu Heng frowned and began to think deeply.
…
Noon the next day.
The fleet arrived in the waters near Netale City.
Three level 18 professionals, together with Wu Heng and Philippa, stood on the deck of the frigate.
Looking at the well-organized but unusually deserted port from a distance.
I didn't see the mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the intelligence, but it still looked like an empty city.
No one could be seen.
Soon, the empty port began to bustle with activity.
The stationed navy spotted the approaching ship.
Ships formed a tight defense line one after another, covering the port tightly.
"Send the letter first and see what they say." Elder Tapani said.
Wu Heng also said, "Send the letter to them."
A member of the team sent the letter over by speedboat.
Not long after, the team members returned quickly with ugly faces, "They said that Netale City does not accept any ships to dock at the port now, including us."
Tapani's eyes narrowed and he asked, "Did you say that the headquarters would come to investigate?"
"As I said, it has no effect." The member nodded.
