Chapter 149: Unexpected Harvest

It was a dark, windy, and spooky night. Outside the Black Dragon Society’s headquarters in the City of Chaos, layers of dark shadows suddenly appeared. A tall man in black was looking up from the dark, silently observing the situation in the Castle.

This Castle covered an area of several dozen acres and was square in shape, divided into inner and outer layers, just like the Chinese character ‘Hui’. The outer fortress was 15 meters high and 5 to 6 meters wide, built entirely of blue stone, making it very sturdy. The inner fortress was even taller, reaching 40 meters with five floors, and had a tall spire in the middle.

At this time, although the main force of the Pirates had been deployed, the Pirates, who had gone through countless battles, not only did not relax their vigilance, but doubled their patrol man power . On the inner and outer City Walls, more than 200 people were patrolling back and forth. There were also more than 100 hidden sentries scattered in every dark corner of the Castle. Many of the Demonkin among them had a sense of smell keener than dogs. As long as anyone dared to enter, they would definitely be the first to be discovered.

However, such tight security, even for a Saint Domain Expert, would cause great trouble. But for Old Xie, it was like nothing. The reason was simple: the Blink Dagger was in Old Xie’s hand.

A hazy white light flashed on the highest spire of the Castle, and then Old Xie easily sneaked in. Although there were more than 300 guards around, their eyes were all focused on the outside, and they didn’t notice the spire behind them at all. So much so that no one noticed the faint light emitted when Old Xie arrived.

After successfully sneaking in, Old Xie gave a wicked smile to the people below, then took out a transparent Potion from his bosom. It was the hallucinogen ‘Number Four’ refined by the Old Mage. Since using it a few times, Old Xie had become particularly interested in this thing, so he ordered Pars to make it day and night. Anyway, Old Xie didn’t lack materials; if he ran out, he would just ask the Old Mage for them. So the production of Number Four almost never stopped. To this day, Old Xie had accumulated a lot of Number Four. Before coming here this time, he knew there would be a fierce battle to fight, so he specially brought all the Number Four he had.

However, in the previous battles, Old Xie’s side was located on a cliff by the sea. The wind above was strong and the direction was unpredictable, which was not conducive to using this thing, so he held back from using it.

Until today, Old Xie finally found an opportunity. The Black Dragon Society’s headquarters was located in the city center and was completely enclosed with almost no wind, making it perfect for using this thing. Old Xie naturally wouldn’t let this opportunity pass. He evenly sprinkled the liquid from the bottle from above. Before it hit the ground, the droplets completely evaporated into a gaseous state and slowly filled every corner of the Castle. Soon, those who were sleeping and the hidden sentries in the corners fell into a coma. Even if gongs and drums were beaten outside, they wouldn’t wake up.

As for those patrolling on the City Wall, Old Xie naturally didn’t miss them either. He gently waved his palms a few times, blowing a breeze to slowly blow the gaseous Number Four down to the City Wall below. Soon, the people outside were surprised to find that those who were patrolling seemed to be suddenly possessed, starting to sway and walk unsteadily, before finally falling to the ground one after another. Some even unluckily fell from the City Wall and were smashed to a pulp.

Seeing this scene, the people ambushing below were almost all stunned. However, they were quite good Warriors, so they quickly reacted. This was obviously a problem inside, and it was undoubtedly a good opportunity for them to attack. So they rushed out from their hiding places one after another and headed straight for the main gate of the Castle.

At this moment, the huge City Gate was slowly opening. When everyone passed through, they happened to see Old Xie’s tall back. Seeing this situation, those people wanted to rush in impatiently, fearing that the people inside would wake up. But unexpectedly, Old Xie reached out to stop them.

Just when everyone was puzzled, a gust of wind blew from inside the gate, and the few guys at the entrance collapsed directly. The people behind were scared and hurriedly retreated, with looks of horror on their faces.

“What are you afraid of? It’s just a hallucinogenic Potion!” Old Xie couldn’t help but laugh and curse. As he spoke, he lowered his head, took out another medicine bottle, poured a little liquid, and smeared it under the noses of the unconscious. Soon, the few people woke up.

Then Old Xie threw the antidote to those people and instructed, “Kill first, loot later. Be quick with your hands and feet, and don’t make too much noise!”

“Yes!” everyone immediately answered in unison.

Next, the more than 400 people who had applied the antidote directly charged into the Castle. Perhaps many of them couldn’t beat a Demonkin in a one-on-one fight, but now, they could freely slaughter those guys without encountering any resistance. In just over ten minutes, most of the Pirates on the periphery were killed. Only a few dozen Experts deep inside the inner Castle had retained some strength because Number Four couldn’t fully penetrate there. Relying on the familiar terrain and the traps there, they kept causing trouble for everyone.

However, these guys were obviously no match for Old Xie and the others. With the help of Chris Chen and some Experts provided by Constantine, Old Xie killed his way to the core of the inner fortress. Finally, Old Xie forced the enemy in front of a stone gate.

Stepping on the ground covered with corpses and blood, Old Xie leisurely walked to the stone gate and smiled at the four Level 6 Demonkin Warriors who were still resisting, “You guys, did you deliberately lead me here? Are you afraid I don’t know the location of your treasure?”

When the Demonkin heard this, their expressions changed immediately. Only then did they feel that leading Old Xie and the others here seemed inappropriate. However, things had come to this, they had nothing to fear. So they said angrily, “Damn bastards, you will know in the future how stupid it is to offend the Black Dragon Society!”

“Tch!” Old Xie sneered disdainfully, “I’m afraid there won’t be a Black Dragon Society in the future. What are you still arrogant about?”

“You’re talking nonsense. The Black Dragon Society has a big business. How can a guy like you fight against it?” one guy said angrily.

“I hate guys who have no ability but are arrogant and talk nonsense!” Old Xie said with disgust, then gently waved his hand. Dozens of Experts behind him, including Chris Chen, immediately rushed up.

The four guys obviously couldn’t withstand so many people. However, knowing they were bound to die, they chose to turn their heads and commit suicide. With a slash of their weapons, their internal organs flowed out and splashed onto the stone wall. Suddenly, the stone wall came alive as if it had come to life, frantically absorbing the flesh and blood, even eating the corpses of the four Demonkin.

Seeing this scene, Old Xie immediately realized there was a trap and hurriedly called back Chris Chen and the others who wanted to attack the stone pillar. After those people had just returned, the stone wall exploded with a bang. Rubble flew everywhere and dust overflowed, forcing Old Xie and the others to retreat in a very messy state. After a chaotic scene, the main character finally appeared. This person was actually a red-haired Saint Domain Expert, the Red-Haired Evil Demon, Tianfeng Fourteen Lang.

It turned out that after this guy was forced to self-destruct his hands, his body was still severely injured by the Elf Sword Saint. To save his life and treat his injuries, he only had time to give a few instructions to his subordinates. Then he almost ran back to the Black Dragon Society’s headquarters in the City of Chaos without looking back. He didn’t have time to explain anything and hurriedly went into seclusion to heal his injuries. It was precisely for this reason that the Black Dragon Society still didn’t know who defeated Tianfeng Fourteen Lang. They only knew that Tianfeng Fourteen Lang was injured while ambushing the Hercules Family. They didn’t know anything else. So they didn’t send anyone to monitor the Stephen Family. This caused the Pirates to not discover the arrival of Old Xie and this dangerous group at all, and they were caught off guard by Old Xie. If the Pirates had known earlier that Old Xie had entered the City of Chaos, it definitely wouldn’t have been such a terrible situation.

Originally, Tianfeng Fourteen Lang, due to having to run for his life after being severely injured, had his injuries doubled. When he came back, he could barely move. If not for the Demonkin’s tough physique, he would have been done for long ago. It would take at least several years to fully heal his hand and body injuries. However, the four people who had just died knew they couldn’t live. In order to let Tianfeng Fourteen Lang escape and avenge them, they simply gave up their bodies and souls, passing all their essence to Tianfeng Fourteen Lang through that special wall. As a result, Tianfeng Fourteen Lang not only grew new arms but also recovered about 60% of his Battle Qi. Although he lost his weapon, the Tianxie Sword, in the last battle, with his current strength, he was still a Master among Masters. At the very least, several ordinary Level 6 Warriors might not be able to beat him.

As the saying goes, ‘When enemies meet, their eyes turn red.’ Especially Old Xie, the guy who made him lose his arm and flee, was hated to the bone by Tianfeng Fourteen Lang. He said viciously to Old Xie, “Damn Stephen, you actually chased me here! Do you want to kill us all?”

“Hehe, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!” Old Xie smiled and said, “I just came to rob, but I didn’t expect to run into you! How should I put it? This is called raking grass and flushing out a rabbit, an unexpected harvest!”
