MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse

Chapter 19, Leopard

 The battle did not last long.

 The smoke became slightly thinner, and the sound of fighting had stopped.

The skeleton warrior stood straight on the spot, and the skeleton dog came back dragging a corpse that was trying to escape.

 After confirming that there was no one else around, Wu Heng turned his attention to the body on the ground.

 He was also curious about who these people were.

 Why was it so accurate? After the crazy crowd was attracted away, they entered the village from the other side.

 What else was taken away.

Took off the cloaks of the people in front of him, revealing their faces and armor underneath.

　　Not much impression.

Moreover, the armor is not standard, and it is impossible to identify which force the opponent comes from.

 Coming to the side of the man who was dragged back by the skeleton dog at the end, he continued to take off his cloak and check.

The moment his face was revealed, Wu Heng's brows instantly furrowed.

It's him!

The steward next to the mine owner ‘Achido’.

Is it really Achido’s fault?

 What good will this do to him?

 As the Curly Investigator said, the accident at the mine had the greatest impact on him.

 Fellowed around the butler's body.

Other than weapons and leather armor, there is nothing else.

It seems that their purpose is very clear, go and come back quickly.

Seeing that there was no other gain, Wu Heng continued: "Take these corpses away and leave the rest alone."

 The skeleton warriors on standby take action.

 Pick up the corpse on the ground and return to the gate.

 …

 On the road outside the village.

 A figure wearing a cloak fled quickly into the distance.

 “Damn it, there is a necromancer, why is he in the investigation team?”

He was cursing in his mouth and his pace quickened a bit.

 The situation in the mining village has exceeded the original plan.

The corpses were identified and they were all surrounded and suppressed by the guards.

Damn it, how could a necromancer appear in the investigation team? When was the necromancer also accepted into the guard?

 Fortunately, he was standing far away on sentry duty and was not discovered by the group of skeletons.

 Otherwise, he would have remained there as a cold corpse.

 “Get what I deserve and get out of here.”

Um?

Muttering, he suddenly stopped.

There was a carriage parked in front of the road, blocking his way.

 The sky has lightened up slightly, and the exquisite patterns on the carriage can be vaguely seen.

 The man's eyes changed slightly, he took two steps back, and wanted to get into the forest.

Just when he was about to move, he saw a yellow cheetah jumping out of the carriage and rushing towards him like a bolt of lightning.

The man's expression changed drastically, he took out the short blade from his waist with his backhand and slashed at the cheetah.

 Poof!

  But the cheetah is faster.

Biting the wrist holding the blade with one bite, the bones broke and the short blade fell to the ground.

The man was thrown to the ground on his back, and the cheetah stepped on his chest. A pair of cold eyes stared down at him, and its scarlet tongue with barbs licked his face, just like a bone scraping sickle swept across it, leaving a blood mark.

“The Wolf Head Mercenary Group has seen Mrs. Slater, please let her go quickly.” The man shouted loudly.

 "Culuo!" A woman's lazy voice came from inside the carriage.

 The leopard jumped off the man's body, but did not leave. It circled around the man with its eyes as if examining its prey.

 The man sat up, holding his injured arm, his face full of pain.

 “What are you doing here?” The woman’s voice sounded again.

 The man quickly glanced at the cheetah beside him and said, "I just completed a mission and am heading back."

 “Curo!”

Hello~!

 The cheetah pounced on him again, clamped his arm and began to tear violently.

The man struggled and shouted, "I said, we took over the task of a mining village."

 “What did Achido ask you to do?”

 The man looked suffocated. He didn't expect that the other party knew this. He thought for a moment, lowered his head and asked, "I told you, can you let me go?"

 “Look at how dishonest you are.”

The man glanced at the cheetah beside him, gritted his teeth and said, "We will help."

He gritted his teeth and said, "We were helping 'Archido' pick up something in the mining village. Things went smoothly until then, but we were blocked by a necromancer from the investigation team. He killed everyone, and only I escaped. "

 “What to take?”

"I don't know. It's a small package. It was taken out from the innermost part of the mine. It was wrapped very tightly."

 The carriage was silent for a brief moment again.

 The man's body swayed a little, and he asked softly: "Can I leave?"

 “Let’s go!”

 “Many, thank you.” The man stood up, held his drooping arms and ran towards the woods on one side.

Immediately afterwards, the voice in the carriage sounded again, "Culuo, go kill him."

 The cheetah got into the woods, and then the man's painful roar and curses were heard.

 Not long after, the cheetah came back with a mouth full of blood and jumped onto the carriage.

 “Go, go back.”

 The carriage turned around and disappeared into the night.

 …

 The sky is slightly bright.

 The guards and the professional team reunited.

 An hour ago, the crazy crowd suddenly stopped attacking and fell down in pieces like wheat.

Everyone took this opportunity to escape from the village and gathered together.

 While recovering his strength, he was also glad that these madmen had lost their fighting ability, otherwise none of them would be able to escape.

“Captain, Wu Heng was not found.” Kavina also walked out of the village, her face looking a little ugly.

For Wu Heng, a new member of the team, we can’t say we have much friendship, but we don’t dislike him either.

 Died in the first mission as soon as he became a teammate.

　　This is not a good thing at all.

 The Guards suffered serious casualties.

 There are only three people left in the six-man team, and all of them are injured.

"It's good news that it's not found. Let's wait a little longer." Captain Altluk said.

Having said that, the situation last night was very dangerous.

Wu Heng went on a mission for the first time and was separated from the crowd. It was difficult for him to survive.

Although Kavina couldn't bear it, she had no good solution.

 Sit down to the side and recover your strength.

 At this time, Commander Plamon came over.

“Captain Altluk, what do you think about this matter?”

 In the investigation of the mining village, there are many doubts from beginning to end.

 But there is still no effective evidence to give them a correct direction.

If no one died, they would just tolerate it and let Blackstone Town handle the matter.

 Now that both teams have died, we can’t let it go.

Orteluk said softly: "Provide the situation to Blackstone Town, call in more people to check the mining village, and also investigate the person who provided the intelligence. We should be able to find some clues."

"Yes." The commander continued: "Achido is very suspicious, but it is difficult to find him. We have never found any clues about this matter and him. Even if we use intelligence to talk about it, he can find enough reason.”

As long as the information Achido provided when he bit him to death was the information he obtained at the time, it would be difficult to do anything to him.

 After all, no one can require absolute accuracy of intelligence.

 Especially in the information provided by the private sector, it is normal for certain errors to occur.

"Then there's nothing we can do. Let's have someone check the necromancy. It's obvious that something is not right with those villagers." Altluk continued.

“Well, that’s all we can do, let’s go back first.”

 Just when everyone got up and was about to leave.

 Two figures walked out of the village.

 Wu Heng!

And the skeleton.

 Not only was he not dead, but he also had no obvious injuries.
