The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 389: 325: Where Are the Others?
Chapter 389: Chapter 325: Where Are the Others?
Philippa clenched her legs tightly around the body, her dagger slashing horizontally across the neck.
The struggling body gradually lost its strength and went limp.
Only a pair of eyes, still staring intently in her direction, refused to close in death.
Philippa let go of the corpse and cautiously looked around.
Seeing that no one around had noticed, she imdiately crouched down, her face alight with joy as she slipped off the Space Ring from the finger, wiped the blood from it on the body, and put it on her own hand.
Then, while carefully watching her surroundings, she started to strip the equipnt from the body.
Leather armor, leather boots, the dagger at the waist—she picked up the dagger by the hilt and smashed it against the golden teeth in the mouth.
“Traitor, traitor!”
Suddenly, a shrill voice rang out from above.
Philippa’s heart contracted.
She looked up sharply to see the green-haired Red Crown parrot standing on the railing, loudly squawking “traitor.”
“Damn, shut up, stupid bird!”
“Traitor, lackey, stupid bird!”
“You motherfucker…” Philippa cursed and lunged at it imdiately.
The fat parrot flapped its wings and flew up, thudding against the overhead beam, then tumbling back down onto the deck.
Philippa was startled, “It really is a stupid bird.”
She grabbed her clothes and hurriedly bent down to run toward her own pirate ship.
…
Inside the cabin.
Amid the deafening roar, the whole ship was shaking violently.
The wails of pirates ca from outside, and fresh blood seeped through the cracks of the door.
Xi Ligui and the few other squad mbers…
Cramd into the narrow crevice, straining to look outside.
Within their fixed line of sight, flas shot up into the sky, and from ti to ti, pirates were flung into the air.
Bodies and limbs strewn about, scattering all over.
“What kind of weapon is this? Or has a great mage co?”
“It must be the Steward leading the team. I just saw that Captain of Poison Blade being blasted away. He’s probably dead.”
“That’s a level 12 fugitive. How could he be dead?”
“Even if he’s not dead, he won’t live long. That hanging over there is his leg.”
The squad mbers discussed in hushed voices.
The arrival of reinforcents allowed their taut nerves to relax sowhat.
It was as if they had taken a stroll through the gates of hell.
But Xi Ligui’s brows were still furrowed.
Although she couldn’t see who was attacking the pirates, this thod of attack felt strangely familiar.
Last ti, Wu Heng had used a strange apparatus to kill all the attacking pirates.
Could it be that it’s not ‘Imilo’ the Steward who has co?
But Wu Heng?
He was soone who rarely even went to the association, so why would he suddenly appear here?
“Deputy Steward, the noise outside has lessened. Should we break out?” soone asked aloud with a suggestion.
Xi Ligui glanced outside again and shook her head, “Let’s wait a bit longer. It’s chaotic out there, and if we go out now, we might accidentally hurt our people. Let’s see how it unfolds first.”
“Oh, okay!”
“Everyone, eat sothing. When we go out later, there might still be pirates.”
Everyone nodded and rested where they were.
…
The cargo ship filled with skeletons rapidly approached.
Bullets rained out, relentlessly striking down every visible target.
“This way!” Wu Heng pointed to the left.
Bang bang bang~!
All guns aid to the left, and a burst of concentrated gunfire ensued.
Pirates trying to untie the ropes and cut the hooks were instantly struck dead or wounded.
“Over here!”
“Attack this ship!”
“Rocket launchers, sink that speedboat.”
Wu Heng kept pointing at one pirate ship after another, and the skeletons rotated their guns to sweep fire accordingly.
Suddenly, in the corner of his eye, he saw ‘Philippa’ clutching sothing, climbing back onto her own ship through the net of ropes.
Wu Heng imdiately directed the skeletons to turn their guns towards other ships.
“Do you know that person?” Glenda floated nearby and asked quietly.
“Hmm, she’s my informant among the pirates; today’s intelligence was provided by her,” Wu Heng said directly.
The ghost was intimately connected to her.
Many things could be shared with them without any problem.
“It seems like the people you chose aren’t very agile,”
“There was no one else to choose, as long as they’re not stupid, they’ll do,” Wu Heng said.
His gaze swept over the location of the Iron Barrel Pirate Group again.
Philippa had already climbed back onto her own ship and started directing the crew to break free and cut the ropes.
Wu Heng then turned his head and looked in other directions.
Only after the ship had broken free and moved away into the distance, did he gesture for the skeletons to fire a couple of random shots.
Still, a few pirates were hit.
They lay on the deck.
With Philippa’s pirate ship leaving, there were no more concerns.
Under a relentless barrage of gunfire,
the decks of all the ships were covered in bodies, with not a living soul in sight.
…
“Cease fire!”
The skeletons, upon hearing the command, stowed away their firearms.
Wu Heng led the skeletons and leaped onto a pirate ship, the hulls touching.
The deck was littered with bodies, and his feet felt the sticky sensation of flesh and blood.
Raising his hand, he cast [Corpse Battlefield], transforming the bodies on the deck into skeletons that rose from the ground.
They swayed as they picked up the weapons from the ground.
Wu Heng walked to the entrance of the cabin and looked down.
Whoosh whoosh~!
Several crosbow arrows, whistling as they were shot up.
Wu Heng dodged to one side and threw Dancing Light Skill downwards, barely making out the pirates hiding inside, ready for action.
It seems a defensive battle was in order.
Thinking for a mont, he took a grenade from his space ring, pulled the pin, and threw it directly into the cabin.
Bang~!
After a loud boom,
Wu Heng said, “Kill them all, leave none alive.”
Clang clang clang~!
The skeletons, ard with weapons, charged into the cabin.
Instantly, they clashed with the pirates inside.
Then, Wu Heng continued to the remaining pirate ships, turning the bodies on the decks and ordering attacks on the cabins to kill the remaining pirates.
After leaving several pirate ships to the skeletons,
Wu Heng proceeded to the besieged guild’s ship in the center.
This ship was not much better than the pirate ships; the railing was shattered, and the deck was full of bodies, dense holes, and huge dents from the explosions.
He walked around the deck.
He found the ‘Captain of Red Crown Pirate Group’ with a huge hole in his chest and the ‘Captain of Poison Blade Pirate Group,’ stripped to just his underwear.
Wu Heng checked the wanted posters, then looked around nearby.
Among the scattered limbs, he found two legs that seed to belong to Poison Blade.
He took out two mats from his space ring, wrapped up the bodies and then directly put them into his space ring.
Afterward, he transford all the other bodies into skeletons.
…
Thud thud thud!
Wu Heng approached where the guild mbers were hiding, knocked lightly, and said, “Xi Ligui, you can co out now.”
Behind the door, after the sound of moving items, the door opened.
Xi Ligui, along with her team mbers and sailors, walked out from the dim cabin.
It seed that everyone was in a sorry state.
There were hardly any crew mbers left.
“Deputy Steward Wu Heng!”
“Thank you, Deputy Steward, for coming to rescue us!”
“Thank you, Deputy Steward Wu Heng…”
Everyone thanked him, but they still looked with so trepidation at the sea of skeletons behind him.
Xi Ligui glanced around at the situation.
The scene was even more tragic than she had imagined, with the deck resembling ruins, covered in bloodstains and various debris.
And on the surrounding pirate ships,
one could see skeletons dragging out so of the bodies from the cabins.
“Where are the others?” asked Xi Ligui?
