Chapter 238: Chapter 203, You Break the Rear (First Update)._1

Everything happened too quickly.

Before anyone could react, Burke’s body had already slumped down.

His body twitched slightly, and fresh blood flowed from the bullet hole in his forehead.

Swordsman ‘Galo Berley’ pulled out his sword in an instant, and the Duke also reacted swiftly, standing in between them.

“Don’t do anything rash.” The Duke said outright.

Galo Berley’s gaze circumvented the towering figure in front of him, landing on Wu Heng,”How dare you kill a mber freely.”

Wu Heng glanced at him, then refocused on the body on the ground, casting ‘Communicate with the Dead’.

The next second, the body sat upright from the ground, its hollow eyes gazing at the crowd.

The swordsman was clearly familiar with this skill, even though it was his first ti seeing Wu Heng use it.

He did not show much surprise.

Under the puzzled gaze of the crowd.

Wu Heng asked directly: “What was your plan for tonight?”

The thief’s corpse replied in a calm tone, “To help the insiders open the city gate, …, to kill Captain Wu Heng.”.

Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces changed instantly.

Previously, when Wu Heng had taken decisive action, even though Duke and Mata trusted their captain, they still felt he had acted sowhat prematurely, at least he should have investigated thoroughly before acting.

But now it seed, the situation was more serious than they had imagined.

This new mber of Squad 12 obviously had an ulterior motive for joining.

He didn’t just plan to open the city gate and throw the whole city into war, but also to kill Wu Heng.

One of their own teammates was actually here to commit murder. It was spine-chilling.

Wu Heng, however, didn’t seem too surprised.

After he first woke up, the ghost ‘Glenda’, who was in charge of keeping watch, had flown back into its own body.

They shared the scene at that mont.

During the night, team mbers took turns to keep watch.

During the thief’s watch, he had secretly left for a while, leading the mbers of the insider faction, they had bypassed the defensive area and directly attacked the city gate.

They captured the city gate with one stroke.

The Association’s squad was in charge of patrolling the wall and supervising the factions.

They knew the layout and the guard positions of the entire area.

Where the guards were more nurous, where the defences were weakest, it seed he had noted all these while on patrol.

He exploited this to open the city gate from within.

What Wu Heng hadn’t expected, was that he also had one more mission – to kill him.

When he had just opened his eyes, he saw him approaching.

He must have planned to act.

His decisive action had been the correct response. In such a situation, any hesitation would have only made him die faster.

Unfazed, Wu Heng continued to ask: “Who ordered you to do this?”

The thief replied, “Lord Mumloda.”

A strange na, to be referred to as a lord, it must belong to so noble in the inner city.

He repeated the na inside his heart a couple of tis, to deepen his impression.

He then asked, “What plans do you have next?”

“None, I only had two tasks, and I could find a way to escape after completing them.”

“How much do you know about Hamr Party’s plans?” Wu Heng asked.

The thief went silent for a mont, then slowly spoke, “I have no connection with the Hamr Party, but from the tasks I was given, other parts of the city wall probably also have people arranged to open the city gate, I don’t know anything beyond that.”

There was one last question left.

After so thought, Wu Heng asked: “How do you contact Mumloda?”

“He notifies of the place to et. If there is an ergency, I’d send a ssage to Lord Mumloda in the inner city.”

The five questions ended, and the body fell to the ground with a thud.

By now, everything was clear.

The thief was planted here with a special purpose.

Not only to cooperate with the Hamr Party, but also to kill him.

Such a person was actually arranged into the squad. It was sowhat speechless.

Wu Heng looked at Galo Berley, who was still holding his longsword, and said, “Then, are you his accomplice?”

“Certainly not, how could it be possible?” Galo Berley replied imdiately.

“Put your sword away, we’ll discuss your situation later.” Wu Heng said outright.

Galo Berley paused, looking like he wanted to say sothing but stopped.

He looked at the corpse again and sheathed his longsword.

Up till now, It seed like he didn’t have the upper hand.

“Captain, what should we do with the corpse?” Mata asked.

The matter was thoroughly investigated, there was nothing to pity about his death.

But the Association was, after all, an organization with complete rules.

Everything had to follow a procedure.

Privately passing sentences, especially for team mbers, clearly did not conform to internal rules.

Wu Heng glanced at it and said, “Treat it as a casualty and pay condolence money, send it to his mother afterwards.”

The others were taken aback, but understood his intention.

They imdiately replied, “Understood, Captain.”

…

Once everything was settled.

Wu Heng led a few people out of the house.

The Iron Guard Knights and the mbers of the defending factions started to remount the city wall for defense, while part of them began to clean the battlefield.

As per Wu Heng’s request, they collected all the corpses.

Seeing Wu Heng co out.

The middle-aged commander of the Knights quickly walked over and said, “Captain Wu Heng, we have re-arranged the defensive forces. The enemies beneath the city have no plans to continue attacking the wall, they have retreated to both sides, it seems that the other city walls have also been breached.”

According to ‘Burke’s’ words, the other city walls also had people to connect with the Hamr Party.

Even though they had held this place, one couldn’t say for sure about the other city walls.
