Instead of going to the warehouse's office building, a group of four people entered the warehouse, used the key on the corpse to open the innermost door of the warehouse and entered the basement.
About one-third of the warehouse on the warehouse floor is filled with mechanical parts, while flour and soybeans are stored in the relatively dry underground. The underground warehouse is not small in size. After lighting up the gas lamp on the wall, you can see the stacks
Mountains of food bags were placed in every corner.
"I come."
Shade said, blinking:
"Echo of Blood!"
Extending from the door to the depths of the underground warehouse, a clear "blood road" appeared in front of you. This means that blood-stained things are often transported here.
Under the leadership of Shade, the four people quickly came to the wall on the left side of the underground granary. There was a secret door on the wall, but the key could not be found for the time being. After Megan confirmed that there were no trigger-type detection traps on the wall, the ring warlock
Together they destroyed the wall.
Wow~
Red stone bricks mixed with soil fell all over the floor, and the wind with moisture and smell blew from the holes in the wall. At the same time, there was the sound of water flowing. When the light ball for lighting flew into the wall,
In the hole, they saw a manually dug underground cave and dozens of coffins on display.
These coffins are made of red copper-colored metal, and none of them have lids on them. Looking inside the coffins, dark liquid fills the interior, and there are kelp, aquatic plants and dead fish in the liquid. Of course, the most important thing is that every
There was a corpse soaked in the water of a coffin, but the corpse did not turn into a terrifying giant. Instead, fish scales appeared on the surface of the body, fins grew on the back, and the head began to transform into a fish head.
At the end of the cave is an underground culvert dug out that connects to the Duin River not far away.
"Undead?"
Shade frowned slightly, held his nose and backed away from the coffin. He didn't know much about this scene, but Meghan could tell what he was doing at a glance:
"Cultivate water ghosts, wait until the water ghosts have completed their transformation, send them directly to the Duin River, and then let them dive all the way into Green Lake... It turns out that the water ghosts in Green Lake are not only naturally occurring."
Megan's voice echoed in the cave filled with the smell of corpses, and her voice also woke up the corpses sleeping in the water.
These corpses that had not yet been completely transformed began to tremble one by one. Finally, seven of them sat up from the water holding coffins. Their faces would give you nightmares just by looking at them.
But even the water ghost who has completed the transformation is not the opponent of anyone here. Among the followers of the witch, a girl with golden hair blew gently in front of her. As the cold air spread, the liquid in the coffin condensed.
The ice prevented the corpses from moving. Then another woman grabbed the pendant on her chest and prayed softly, and the corpses frozen in the ice stopped moving.
Megan asked her followers to check the rituals on the walls of the cave and search if there were any other suspicious places. Shade took a pinch of bone powder and sprinkled it on one of the corpses. After performing a miraculous operation, the soul was
Calling out, and asking simple questions, Shade quickly learned that most of the corpses here were homeless people in the city.
"Compared to using corpses directly, the undead created after living people die in great fear and pain are more powerful... Green Lake City is in short supply of homeless people."
Megan said, Shade nodded, thinking that when he goes back tonight, he must go and see if Little John at the back door of the hotel is still alive. But even if Bad-Eyed Barry cultivates water ghosts on a large scale, he will not look for children.
, after all, the taller the body, the better the quality of the water ghosts that will be cultivated.
Next, Shade and the two sixth-level sorceresses checked the surroundings together, while the lady with brown shawl hair stood there and watched them search.
There is nothing of great value here, it is purely a workshop for cultivating water ghosts. The dense black lines on the walls and floor, according to Megan's judgment, are a unique ink prepared from octopus ink, blood and potions.
These ritual traces together constitute the water ghost cultivation room. The most important part is the evil holy symbol on the ground at the bottom of each coffin. It is the holy symbol of the evil god [God of the Deep Sea Drowned], which is made of fish, bones, and chaotic
The pattern composed of black lines and a large number of unexplained textures makes people feel deeply uncomfortable even just looking at it (Note).
According to the observation of the ritual, although the daily maintenance of this place is very simple, it is definitely not something that a ring warlock can set up.
In other words, although "Bad Eyed Barry" is a low-level warlock, there are other high-level warlocks around him. And based on the professional magical ritual arrays on the walls and the ground and the bottom of the coffin, the one at the top of the cave can be seen at a glance.
Judging from the holy symbol of the [God of the Drowned in the Deep Sea], which makes people instinctively fear, the Order of the Drowned is inseparable from this matter.
"But what exactly do they want to do? This is not an ocean area. Even if a large number of water ghosts are cultivated in Green Lake, what can they do? Do they want to submerge half of the old continent and turn Green Lake into a coastal city?"
Shade put forward a hypothesis that he knew was impossible, and the witch shook her head:
"I don't know much about the believers of that god, but since it is Green Lake, maybe it really has something to do with my family."
Judging from the current situation, any abnormalities in this area may have something to do with the Edwards family.
They did not stay here long, destroyed the corpses, destroyed the ritual array, then re-sealed the wall, and then left the warehouse. Someone will take over the place soon, and the police will not be notified until evening to prevent the ongoing war.
The businessmen met Bad-Eyed Bally to get the information in advance.
In the warehouse, it was determined that "Bad Eyed Barry" was breeding water ghosts on a large scale. The next stop was to cross the Duin River and enter the slums in the eastern part of Green Lake City to visit the real core territory of the gang leader.
Although he has many illegal industries in the local area, just like a legal company always has a headquarters, Bad Eye Barry's gang - it seems to be called the Bad Eye Gang, also has its own core territory in Green Lake City
.
It was an area in the slums called "Goroj Street". The outside on the north side of the alley were normal legal shops, but the inside was a gang gathering place like a village in the city. If you want to enter this area, you must not only
There is a guide, and passwords and passwords are needed. Once you successfully enter, the black market, firearms, body trading, and various illegal activities will be completely open to those lucky or unlucky ones.
It was still raining, and it was approaching 10:30 in the morning, but the sky was as dark as night. Even if you are in the best mood, you will feel depressed and bored in this weather. Shade and Megan in the carriage were watching on the way.
While chatting while looking at the street scene, the sorceress has a beautiful profile. In fact, the beauty of witches is always unmatched.
She suddenly asked Shade a question:
"What do you think of your family and relatives?"
The stranger laughed:
"I have no relatives in this world, and the only 'uncle' who left me an inheritance died last summer. So I care more about my new relationship now and in the future than in the past. Even if...
.Even if some people close to me make mistakes, I still love these new relationships. After all, people have to look forward."
He knew what the lady in front of him was thinking. The person who raised water ghosts and played with corpses might not be just Bad-Eye Bali. He might be working for one of her elders.
The carriage stopped at the intersection of Goroje Street. This street is very wide. Under normal circumstances, there should be various vendors selling goods on both sides. But in such weather, even the shops facing the street are unwilling to sell their goods.
The signboard is placed at the door.
There was no one on the street, and the pounding rain kept hitting every puddle. You could see from one end of the street to the other at a glance. After the carriage stopped, Shade was still looking forward to seeing hundreds of people rushing out of nowhere.
The No. 1 man forced his way into the two closed iron doors on the north side of the street, but this time they didn't need to wait for anyone.
"What are you expecting? If a gunfight with hundreds of people really breaks out, do you think the Green Lake Police Department is really all fools? This is during the negotiation between the two countries."
Megan saw Shade's thoughts and couldn't help but smile:
"We have to find out the secret of Bad-Eye Barry, but we can't expose ourselves. This is not the warehouse just now, there are a lot of people inside. So, the next step is for the two of us. Guess how many people there are now.
Want to deal with it?"
Even without the sound of rain covering up the sound of heartbeats, Shade would not be able to accurately distinguish each person's heartbeat from the heart sounds of so many heartbeats mixed together.
He shook his head:
"I bet that not everyone is capable of fighting, so it's... 200?"
"Not that many. Do you really think that under the nose of the border army, someone can organize 200 people armed with guns? About 40 or so, and the others are ordinary people without fighting ability."
She got off the carriage first, but did not take an umbrella. This time there was only one carriage nearby, so no followers came over to protect her from the rain. Shade poked his head out of the side door of the carriage and was surprised to see a completely transparent spherical force field.
, automatically repels rainwater around her, so that a spherical rain curtain forms around her.
"Have you recovered?"
Shade asked, Megan shook her head:
"Of course not, but at least it's better than the first two times we landed on the island. It's no problem to use the power below the sixth ring casually... I mean the general sixth ring, not your kind. Oh, young man
Sir, don't ask so many questions, please come with me. I hate rainy weather, the humidity is really heavy."
She waved to Shade, and when Shade stepped out of the carriage and was enveloped by the gentle transparent force field, she took off the small gold and silver book-shaped pendant hanging around her neck.
