MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse

Chapter 394, Pirate Village

 On one side of the road, several people rushed out one after another.

The disheveled beggar screamed and fell to the ground, followed by four men holding wooden sticks and chasing him out of the alley.

  Approached quickly, cursing.

 “Grass, let’s see if I don’t beat you to death.”

 “Break your legs and see if you keep running out.”

The beggar huddled up and stepped backwards, saying, "Don't hit me, don't hit me."

　　A few people who chased after him breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he didn't run away.

 Still cursing, he quickly stepped forward, wanting to teach the beggar a lesson.

 The wooden stick in his hand has just been raised.

 A voice came from behind, "Stop, what are you doing here?"

 Faced with ghosts, he did not show the fear of living beings.

Several people pushed the beggar down and hit him heavily with sticks in their hands.

　　Yelling, crawling to the corner of the iron cage like a dog.

 The ghost floated to the cloth bag.

 A translucent ghost slowly appeared from the iron cage.

 The beggar still kept his silly smile.

 Did you guess wrong?

This beggar, didn't he want to say something when he rushed to the association?

 Just running around?

 There was blood flowing from the corners of his mouth.

 After cursing, he turned around and left.

 “Sacrifice ceremony?”

While locking the door with a chain, the man cursed: "When those bad guys from the association leave, I'll have to skin you."

 A piece of rolled up cloth was revealed inside, with handwriting written in blood, "Pirates massacred the village, and massacred all men, women, old and weak."

 “Kill the pirates!” The beggar opened his eyes wide and screamed at the top of his lungs, as if he was crazy.

"Village chief, he..." The leader pointed at the beggar and was about to explain.

 A courtyard.

“Forget it, the village was attacked by pirates a few years ago, and everyone in the family died. He was the only one left, and then it became like this.” The village chief explained.

 The ghost circled in the air, got directly into the beggar's body, made two self-rescue movements, and then leaned against the corner and sat up.

 After separating his body again, the beggar also opened his eyes and giggled.

Sheela Gui glanced at the figure being dragged away, "Why are you so stupid?"

 …

The beggar was still huddled on the ground, motionless.

He dragged it outside, and the control force opened up layer by layer.

The ghost asked: "What's going on in this village? Tell me what you know."

The ghost continued to try: "A cult?"

"Several adults, a fool, his brain has been broken before, don't be offended." The village chief said.

A few people turned around and saw the association team approaching.

He cursed a few times, dragged the embarrassed and injured beggar into a semi-underground cell, and threw him into it.

 The beggar on the ground moved slightly, but did not get up.

 Wait for the others to go away.

The beggar still wanted to rush over, but he was held down by several people and dragged away from him.

Xila Gui didn’t say much, and the others continued to follow the village chief and walked further away.

 “Pirate?”

 On the ground covered with thatch and mud, he grabbed a cloth bag and held it in his hand.

"Are you still alive?"

“Pirates, pirates!” The beggar suffocated, his eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted: “Pirates, association!”

 Then he threw the cloth bag against the wall as if he was sick.

 “Oh, yes!”

The village chief looked gloomy, glanced behind him, and said, "Why are you fooling around here with a fool? Send him home."

 The ghost looked at the beggar and began to guess in his mind.

 The ghost's translucent body trembled.

 “Lies and kills people in the village?”

 The village was massacred.

Who are the villagers in this village?

The beggar in front of me must know many of these things. Why was he not killed and kept in a cage like a dog?

  Why did they ask the association to come over?

 The ghost thought and turned around to leave.

 Seeing the angry beggar again, he said, "Someone will come to save you."

 After saying that, he turned around and left.

 …

 Outside the village, inside a wooden house.

There was a knock on the door, and the village chief walked in cautiously.

 The small room was crowded with many people.

The village chief lowered his head, saluted to the front and said: "Chief, they have been settled."

A man wearing similar religious robes sat on the main seat and asked, "Did they find anything?" "No, their people only went to the arranged altar room, and then it got late and they didn't go anywhere. Check it out," the village chief replied.

 The man in the religious robe nodded, "How many people have come? Is there anything special about them?"

 The village chief recalled, "There are thirteen people in total, including the two deputy deacons of Treasure Island that you asked to pay attention to."

 The man raised his eyebrows and praised, "Okay, you did a good job. Don't worry about the rest, we will take care of it."

 “Yes, chief.”

 “Go back first!”

The village chief saluted again and retreated directly.

 The man lowered his gaze.

He said in a solemn voice: "According to the plan, the four of us will deal with the necromancer. Be careful of his undead attendants. It is not difficult to kill him as long as you get up close. The rest of you will follow me to deal with the other two deputy deacons and the rest of the team."

 “Okay.” Everyone nodded.

“Get ready, we’ll start when the weather gets darker, and we’ll have to clean up the scene before dawn.”

 Everyone stood up and began to prepare.

 …

 Residence arranged by the village.

 The members of the association simply ate some of the food they brought and began to arrange for people to take turns to watch the night.

Even though I had a rest on the boat, I still felt tired from the journey.

Wu Heng sat in the room and began to recheck his weapons and props.

 Start by entering the village.

There is an indescribable sense of dissonance.

The village looks simple, with little cultivated land, but the living conditions of every household are pretty good.

 His behavior is barbaric. Although there are many people in the village, there are few mature men.

　　咚咚咚~!

There was a knock on the door, and Sheila Ge opened the door directly and walked in.

He glanced around the room and said, "If you find something, just tell me!"

Just when Wu Heng was about to say that there was no major discovery yet, he felt 'Glenda' flying back invisibly and getting directly into his body.

 Then, a picture was shared in my mind.

 After receiving the information, Wu Heng's eyes suddenly opened wide, with some surprise and disbelief.

Seeing the change in his expression as he looked at her, Shiragui drew her sword and alerted her surroundings.

Seeing that there was still no danger, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you? This expression."

 Wu Heng finished sorting out the information in his mind, released Glenda again, and surveyed the surrounding area.

Then he said to ‘Sheila Gui’: “We may be in trouble!”

 “What do you mean? You mean the problem of cults.”

Wu Heng shook his head, "No, there is no cult here at all. This is a pirate village. The cult just brought us here."

Silla's pupils shrank, and her expression was also surprised.

She naturally knows what Pirate Village means.

 The former Treasure Island was a pirate island, and pirates and their families lived on it.

 The women snatched will also be distributed to the people on the island, forming an area where they can supplement their own personnel and maintain their lives.

To put it more clearly, it is a mountain stronghold for bandits.

 It's just that these are pirates, the type is the same.

 In other words, this is all a conspiracy.

 The purpose is to lure them out of Treasure Island.

 No wonder that when leaving, Deacon Imiro suspected that there was something wrong.

Many things happened to happen together.

After being surprised, Sheila Gui said again: "The cult does not exist. You brought us in for the 500 gold coins you have? Are we really going to kill you? The pirates don't want this village anymore? Aren't you afraid that the association will investigate?"

 “It’s not clear how to deal with it later.”

Sheila Gui continued to ask: "Then what should we do next?"

“Inform everyone about this in advance and they should take action soon.”

Sheila Gui nodded and was about to get up and leave.

The ghost ghost Xiaoxiao also flew back from the outside, got into his body, and shared the scene outside.

 I saw figures running towards me quickly, surrounding the courtyard where I lived.

 “Here they come, ready to fight!”

As he spoke, an armor composed of white bones began to appear on Wu Heng's body, covering his whole body.

 Hila Gui’s face also changed instantly.

 Aware that the other party has already taken action.

 He drew his sword and rushed out of the courtyard, shouting: "The enemy is coming, fight accurately."

 Hurrah hoo~!

 The sound of breaking through the air sounded.

Countless alchemical rolling thunders were thrown in from outside the courtyard and landed around the courtyard.
