The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 430: Chapter 357, Control Couple (One update today.)_2

This thing is truly sinister.

If I had gone to find Imilo with a sword in hand, maybe things would have been okay. At most he would have thought I’d gone mad, beaten me up, and then investigated the reason.

If I had challenged some other formidable person, I might have died without even knowing how.

…

Knock knock knock~!

Just as Wu Heng had sat down at his desk, the door was knocked on.

“Come in!”

The door opened, and a woman clad in a gray cloak with her head bowed entered.

She came in quickly and then took off her hood.

Millicent, Philippa’s mother.

“Deputy Steward!” Millicent bowed respectfully.

One could see that Millicent was in good spirits.

Her mental state had also improved significantly since before.

“What’s the matter?” asked Wu Heng.

Being an information scout, it was actually quite dangerous for her to come directly to me.

If someone tailed her or if she were recognized by anybody,

it would be easy for others to investigate.

The lady informed him, “Today, a dwarf guest checked out. While we were cleaning his room, we found these.” Millicent took out several items from her side bag.

A black wig, some torn cloth strips, and various wooden sticks that looked like parts of something.

Black hair?

Dwarves?

The dwarves were of small stature and didn’t match the three people who had imitated him at all.

But clearly, this was related to the matter.

“You said he checked out? Where did he go?” Wu Heng asked directly.

Millicent replied, “He headed towards the port, it seems he plans to leave the island.”

Wu Heng nodded and began to put on his Leather Armor as he spoke, “Do you know which ship?”

“I don’t know!”

“Hmm, you did well on this matter. Go back for now, and I’ll find you after I’ve dealt with this issue,” Wu Heng told her directly.

“Yes, sir.”

Millicent put on her hood and left. Wu Heng, after getting ready, also left with ‘Skull Crusher’ in hand.

Taking the Association’s carriage, he headed towards the port.

…

On the way, Xi Ligui and her team were still inquiring at the taverns.

The carriage stopped, and Wu Heng poked his head out, “Xi Ligui, we have a lead.”

Xi Ligui looked up and frowned, “What lead?”

“Get in first!”

Xi Ligui opened the door and got in.

Wu Heng shared the intelligence he had received with her.

He didn’t mention Millicent; he only said that the intel pointed to a dwarf and a black wig.

Xi Ligui nodded, pulled aside the curtain, and said to her team outside, “Let’s go, to the port.”

The carriage began to move again, heading towards the port.

…

They finally arrived at the port.

The group headed to the area where the ship’s management was located.

Seeing how formidable the Association people looked, the ship’s manager grew nervous.@@novelbin@@

“Gentlemen, what can I do for you?” he asked.

Xi Ligui said, “Did any ships leave the dock today? What times?”

“Several ships left the dock this morning.”

“And what about the ships that are about to leave, which ones are they?”

The ship’s manager immediately flipped through the logbook and said, “Dock 5, 7, 9; in the afternoon, it’s dock 11…”

After listening to all the details,

Wu Heng’s mind raced, and Glenda and Xiao Xiao flew out of his body, invisible, and headed towards the corresponding dock numbers.

Xi Ligui also ordered, “One team per ship, look for a dwarf, in a blue-gray robe, wearing a hood.”

“Yes,” the teams quickly dispersed, heading towards the cargo ships.

Soon, Glenda and Xiao Xiao flew back from a distance.

They entered his body directly.

The next second, Glenda’s vision shared through their mind showed,

The dimly lit cabin.

The dwarf sat on the wooden bed, legs propped up, waiting for the ship to sail.

His eyes were constantly scanning the cabin door, looking somewhat vigilant.

That’s him!

“Dock 7!” Wu Heng called out.

Everyone hurriedly followed and boarded the ship together.

…

Inside a single room in the cabin,

The dwarf was sitting on the wooden bed, arms resting on his knees, quietly waiting.

Whenever he heard footsteps in the corridor, he would anxiously look at the door.

He had heard about the incidents of the past few days.

The Association had been intensifying their investigation recently, and the person who had hired him had also disappeared.

“Just need to get away from here, and I’ll be safe!”

The dwarf took a deep breath to calm himself down.

But he still regretted getting involved in this mess.

Tap tap tap~!

Suddenly, the sound of rapid footsteps arose once again.

The dwarf’s heart tensed immediately.

And just as he was intently listening,

Bang! A loud boom.

The door was forcefully kicked open.

The team members blocked the doorway, weapons pointed at the intruder.

The dwarf’s face changed drastically, but he forcibly maintained his composure and asked, “Gentlemen, what seems to be the issue here? I believe this is the room I booked.”

Wu Heng sized him up and asked, “You don’t recognize me? Or do you think the Association wouldn’t find out about you here?”

The dwarf’s expression shifted, and he thrust his hands forward, spreading his fingers wide.

Two exaggerated Big-head Puppets charged directly at them.

Suddenly, the puppets opened their mouths wide, one spewing black grease, the other shooting out flames.

Whoosh—Boom!

Instantly, an explosion sounded.

Inside the cabin, flames erupted.

The team, trying to avoid the blaze, scattered in all directions.

The dwarf’s fingers moved again, and another canine puppet emerged from the Space Ring.

Riding on its back, he ducked his head and charged out.

“You imbeciles, go catch ‘Ewald’ if you can; don’t waste your efforts on me,” yelled the dwarf.

The dwarf roared as he rode the puppet’s back, quickly dashing away.

Meanwhile, the fire continued to spread within the cabin.

Wu Heng watched the retreating figure, immediately drew his rifle, and pulled the trigger.

Bang bang bang~!

Bullets whistled out, striking the target with precision.

Blood sprayed, and the dwarf fell off the puppet, struggling to stand back up, his fingers still attempting to manipulate the controls.
