Chapter 431, Kidnap Her

Wu Heng's eyes widened a little.

Suddenly, he remembered what was mentioned in the brief history of pirates.

The appearance of the Pirate King stopped the internal strife among the pirates, and they united to retake their own seas.

After the blank envelope appeared again, even those who didn't know the legend of the Pirate King were driven by the letter because the letter could accurately predict the time of the merchant ship.

Think about it carefully.

At that time, the Devil's Hand ambushed himself and the association on the pirate ship.

He couldn't understand it. With the strength of the Devil's Hand Pirate Group, plus the other five pirate groups with level 15 leaders.

Why did they insist on killing him when his bounty was not enough to share.

Now it seems that it may not be for that bounty.

More importantly, they are still acting according to the information in the letter.

"So, I suspect that the old pirate group knows some inside information." Philippa continued.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, "I asked the captain of the Devil's Hand, but I didn't get any information about the envelope and the person behind it."

Philippa thought for a moment, "Next time you can ask in a different direction, ask how the envelope was delivered, or who the previous pirate king was."

Before, Wu Heng had not collected any information about the pirate king.

Therefore, when asking the corpse, he was more inclined to ask about the owner behind the envelope.

Philippa was right, he could ask in a different way, ask what the identity of the previous pirate king was, or whether he knew how the letter was delivered.

"Well, next time I catch a pirate, I will ask him this way, you continue to collect relevant information, and notify me in time if there is any news."

"Okay." Philippa agreed, and continued, "Has my identity as a secret speaker been revealed?"

"No news, I will go to the association to ask for you tomorrow."

"Oh, it's revealed, go tell my mother, tell her loudly how brave and wise I am, so I was accepted by the association as an exception." Philippa's tone rose.

"Okay, try to look more formal when the time comes."

"Okay, you are a sensible kid." Philippa felt that she had said something wrong and changed the subject again, "Recently, pirates have spread a kind of sailor scarf, green, and it is said that wearing it can get the blessing of the sea god."

"A rare item or a prop?"

"Neither, it is woven by the Bevila people, and many people have bought it." Philippa said.

Wu Heng said: "It's a lie, their race is so powerful, the things they weave can be like rare items."

"Many people have bought it, some say they have avoided shipwrecks, and some say they are invulnerable in battle."

"Superstitious."

"I heard that some people can pick up money!"

"Then ask them where they bought it."

Philippa asked again, "Okay, no more, I'm going out."

"Yeah."

After the conversation, Wu Heng hung up the microphone again.

Leaning against the table, he reorganized Philippa's information.

Before, veteran pirates had all been looking for the treasure of the Pirate King.

Now, the appearance of the blank envelope makes the pirates think that the treasure has been obtained, and they are willing to cooperate with the actions in the letter.

Even if the new generation of pirates do not know about the pirate king.

But the letter can provide accurate information about the caravan and drive the remaining pirates to act with interests.

"Even if the pirates are still scattered now, if the blank envelope is willing, it is very likely to command the pirates to act according to his words."

"Damn, he won't let all the pirates go to the island to kill me!"

Not really.

The pirates are not stupid enough to really do this.

After a brief thought, he walked out of the room.

Went downstairs and chatted with Minnie for a while.

Wait for Andwier to come back, have dinner, and go back to the room to rest.

...

In the morning, the association.

Yimi Luo sat on the sofa, wiping the sword oil on his weapon, looking at Wu Heng who came in, and asked: "You came early today, is there something else?"

Wu Heng wanted to go forward and see the attributes of his sword.

The other party handed it directly to Moya, and he sat down and looked at him.

All he could say was, "There's some news from Philippa. Report it to you, Deacon."

"Go ahead."

Wu Heng organized his words and said, "According to Philippa, the old pirates had been looking for the treasure of the Pirate King for some time, but after the letter appeared, they stopped looking and began to act selectively according to the contents of the letter."

There's not much he can do about pirates.

Imilo is very powerful, and he's also an enemy of the pirates. It's better to let him know or handle some things.

After all, he's joined the association, so it's not right not to rely on him.

"Hmm?" Imilo raised his eyebrows, "Do you think that book is true?"

"I feel that the story of the Pirate King is not false, otherwise the old pirate group would not be so sure of the other party's existence. Now that the blank envelope has appeared, the pirates are gradually being led by the envelope. Over time, all the pirates will unite and become a big hidden danger." Wu Heng analyzed.

"Tell me what you think."

"Reduce the number of fleets on the route and slow down the number of times the pirates act according to the content of the letter. Secondly, we can infiltrate more from the old pirate group and maybe get some intelligence." Wu Heng said.

Other people in the association should also have their own spies.

If everyone investigates together, the source of intelligence will be richer.

Yimi Luo thought for a while and said, "We have no right to interfere with the caravans of various countries. You can try to implement the matter of collecting intelligence from the old pirate group you mentioned."

"Then I have nothing to do." Wu Heng said.

Yimi Luo took out a copper emblem from the drawer, "This is the whisperer emblem of your pirate lady. You can give it to her when you have the chance. Also, the merits for killing two pirates last time have been handed down. Remember to pick them up."

"Okay." Wu Heng put away the emblem and left the study.

...

Back to the corridor.

First go to the morgue and put the bodies of the two pirate captains into the space ring.

Then continue to the hall.

There are many people in the association hall these days.

Many people are talking about the formation of a fleet and guards on the island.

The treatment is good. If you don't want to be a mercenary, joining the guards is also a good choice.

Wu Heng stood aside and eavesdropped.

It feels that the guards on the island are quite popular.

Anywhere, those who can become law enforcement teams are more popular.

Arriving at the front desk, the staff smiled, "Deputy Deacon, what do you want?"

"I have two merits that need to be exchanged."

"Please wait." The staff immediately looked through the records, "You have two third-level merits to exchange. What type do you need? I will prepare it for you."

"Mage's skill book."

"Please wait." The staff left immediately, and when he came back again, he had a few more skill books in his hand, "Deputy Deacon, you can choose."

Wu Heng's eyes quickly swept over them, many of which were skills he had already learned.

Finally, he landed on two.

[Mirror Image]

(Description: You can create up to three phantom clones, and can command the clones to complete simple actions.)

[Preset Armor]

(Description: You touch a target unit, and voluntarily surround it with a protective force field until the spell ends. If attacked, the spell will be automatically triggered.)

Two skills, one is an illusion spell that can create clones.

Mirror Image, the effect is the same as the Wuhuan Blade given to 'Philippa'.

It can confuse the enemy, even for a moment, and it can play a certain role.

The second skill is called preset armor, which can preset a defensive magic on the target, which will be automatically triggered when attacked.

It plays a protective role.

The effect is also quite good.

"I want these two books." Wu Heng said directly.

The staff nodded, "Okay, you can take it directly."

Wu Heng nodded and returned to the office study.

...

In a mansion in the Snowburn District.

There are two men sitting in the slightly dim room.

One of them has a slicked back beard, in his 40s, wearing a blue noble dress, his hair is very neatly combed, and he is energetic and capable.

The other is younger, with brown hair and blue eyes, wearing silver armor, and a tall figure.

"Greco, what's the information?" The man with a slicked back beard said.

"The tavern was bought by someone arranged by the association. It's either that person's informant or lover." Greco, wearing silver armor, said calmly.

"Are you sure?"

"He's just a wizard who changed his job midway. He can't escape my eyes." Greco sneered.

The middle-aged man continued, "What are you going to do?"

Greco touched the mark on the armor, "When he goes to the tavern, burn it together."

The man shook his head, "It's not a good idea. There are too many people in Lighthouse Street. It will make too much noise and it will be difficult to end it."

Greco continued, "Then kidnap the woman, lead him out to sea, and then kill him."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, "Don't be careless. He has killed many pirates. If he is not dead, we will be in trouble."

"Don't worry. Without the skeleton servants, he is nothing."
