Chapter 383: Section 170: Hua Sheng and Asa

Boom…

Amidst the thunderous, muffled sounds, plumes of black smoke rose.

The black smoke, constrained by the magic device, did not disperse in all directions but soared straight up, gathering above the Fire City into thick, roiling black clouds.

The young man, Zi Di, and the others looked up at this scene with a hint of surprise on their faces.

Not long ago, they had secretly infiltrated Fire Island, making their way directly to Fire City at the southeastern corner of the island.

Fire Island is a super island, incomparable to Dao Mountain Island. It features three seaports and a terrestrial city, Fire City, which also serves as the main city of the island and is grand in scale.

Due to Fire Island being the only super island in the nearby seas, it serves as a hub for economy, military, and culture; thus, it has a complex and diverse population.

The young man, Zi Di, and their group blended in seamlessly and thus easily arrived at the gate of Fire City.

However, they were about to face a checkpoint.

At the entrance of Fire City stood two gigantic warrior statues radiating Holy Domain Level aura, evidently two war golems.

The golem on the left of the gate held a sword with one hand and a shield with the other. The one on the right propped up a two-handed battle hammer with both hands.

Both golems were slightly bowed, appearing to be in a dormant state.

Beneath the golems were the City Guards of Fire City.

These city guards were also very tall, at least three meters in height, each clad in armor with well-developed muscles.

“The City Lord of Fire City is the Fire Giant Ayo, a Legendary level Mage who excels in alchemy, specifically in crafting golems.”

“These two Holy Domain Level war golems must be her creations.”

“It is said that, unlike the other ports, Fire City’s city guards comprise solely of giants and also serve as Ayo’s personal guard.”

Cang Xu narrated leisurely.

Having once been a Noble Housekeeper, he was thoroughly familiar with the affairs of various nobles.

Although Fire City is isolated overseas, it remains a major force within the Night Spirit Sea Domain, more significant than a Marquis within the Empire’s mainland, especially in the current grand scheme of human’s attack on the Beast Race.

“Ayo’s clan is the largest remaining giant tribe on the Holy Bright Continent.”

“Overwhelmed by the might of the Holy Emperor, Ayo surrendered to protect her tribe.”

“More than a thousand years ago, when demons attacked the Main World, Fire Island was one of the Demon Army’s strongholds. The volcano here connects with the abyss.”

“After defeating the demons on land, the grand army assembled by the Holy Bright Empire fought its way here, conquering Fire Island.”

“At Ayo’s request, the Holy Emperor allowed her to lead the giant tribe and settle here. Fire City, as well as the Sulfur Flame Port, were subsequently established by Ayo and her giants, with assistance from other races and considerable investment from the Holy Bright Empire.”

Through Cang Xu’s narration, everyone gained a deeper understanding of Fire City.

“I’ll go first,” the goblin Sanda suddenly grew impatient.

Zong Ge’s condition was deteriorating rapidly, showing no signs of improvement. The young man and the others had been keeping him alive with various scrolls and potions, but now they were nearing their limit.

Fortunately, after successfully deceiving the Tower Spirit, the Justice Pirate Group obtained crucial information on using the Green Jade Gold Coffin from the war merchant’s data.

If they could set up this Alchemy Array, the Justice Pirate Group could enhance the healing effect of the green liquid and temporarily remove Zong Ge from the Green Jade Gold Coffin, thereby treating him.

However, setting up this alchemy array required many alchemy materials. Even including the stock from the Deep Sea Monster Fish, there were still many gaps.

“Wait,” the young man stopped the impatient goblin Sanda, “Let me go first. I have a Blood Core, so I have a better chance of escaping if discovered.”

“Sir,” Lan Zao immediately dissuaded.

Cang Xu also said, “Sir, let Sanda go. You are the highest combat power we have here.”

“Yes,” Zi Di agreed, “If anything unexpected happens, you are the most capable of dealing with it among us.”

The young man was not one to seek glory recklessly; he pondered for a moment and then slowly nodded to Sanda.

Watched by everyone, Sanda slowly walked towards the city gate.

After enduring a rough interrogation by the giant City Guards, he paid the city entry fee and successfully entered Fire City.

Seeing this, everyone sighed in relief.

It seemed that the Pearl Bubble was effective and had successfully deceived the city guards.

Following Sanda, Lan Zao, Cang Xu, and others gradually passed through the gate and entered Fire City.

However, just as the young man was passing through, an incident occurred.

Everyone’s expression changed, and at that moment, they all felt the Pearl Bubble on them rapidly dissipating.

With a close call, the young man successfully regrouped with the others.

He had neither used the Fishman Bloodline nor assumed the Dragon-man form but had switched to a common-looking Human Race Black Iron Level Bloodline.

The group initially dispersed and then regrouped in a small alley at the end of the street.

“It must have been a powerful being targeting us, using Divination or Prophecy!”

“At least a Legend, otherwise the Pearl Bubble wouldn’t have dissipated so rapidly.”

“We must hurry now. We obtained quite a bit of Pearl Bubble this time, but it can’t withstand such rapid consumption.”

“Ah… Gathering the alchemy materials on the list is very time-consuming and labor-intensive.”

“First, let’s check if the Clan Leader has arrived here.”

At the same time, in the Voodoo Rainforest.

The female Naga, Mo Lie, was in the cabin, her aura had greatly weakened, and she looked palely at the soil in the wooden basin.

A grass doll was lying on top of the soil.

Yi Gui’s expression was solemn; she had witnessed the whole process, seeing grass grow from the soil, condensing and entwining to form the shape of a doll.

Then, the next moment, the grass doll collapsed headfirst into the soil, and within seconds, completely withered.

Afterwards, the withered grass ignited without fire, scorching the wooden basin and the soil.

The soil took shape in the flames, as if invisible hands were molding it.

Eventually, the soil in the basin turned into a chaotic flow of mud—resembling streams of water entwined like a group of snakes.

“As you see, the prophecy failed,” Mo Lie opened a potion bottle and poured a large gulp of black liquid down her throat. Her complexion somewhat improved.

Yi Gui nodded slightly, “The opponent is the goddess Mei Lan, whose main role is deceit and disguise; one failure is not surprising. But her main source of faith has been destroyed. The Charming Blue Divine Sect is almost annihilated, and the Navy is capturing fishmen throughout Sea Eye City.”

“How long can she hold on then?”

Mo Lie rolled her eyes dramatically, “Do you want me to make another divination?”

“Do you think I am seeking death?!”

Yi Gui took out a potion, “I’ve brought you this, a Longevity Potion that can extend your life.”

Mo Lie’s eyes lit up, “Even so, I can only divinate for you again tomorrow. Those are the rules!”

Yi Gui’s expression became anxious, “Please, after tomorrow, the information about the secret relocation of the main body of the Justice Pirate Group will be completely exposed. We will lose the initiative. By then, diviners from the Navy or the Empire will take action.”

Mo Lie sighed, “Rules are rules, it’s not mine to change; it’s the Ancestor Spirit’s rule. Unless you can produce a holy object, only then will the Ancestor Spirit continue to help me with the divination.”

The Voodoo Sect that Mo Lie believed in worshiped not a single deity, but several Ancestor Spirits.

Yi Gui gritted her teeth, managing a wry smile, “Holy objects of the Voodoo Sect, where could I possibly find them?”

“I’ve told you before to make an effort to collect holy objects regularly, but you just scavenge through your clothes,” Mo Lie snorted.

Yi Gui voiced her complaint, “Haven’t I made an effort? I’ve collected information through many channels, but holy objects of the Voodoo Sect are extremely rare. What can I do?”

“Beautiful ladies, is the holy object you’re discussing the one in my hand?” Just then, suddenly, a voice came.

Yi Gui and Mo Lie’s faces changed drastically as they both exclaimed, “Who?”

“Ladies, please, don’t panic. I have no ill intentions.” The light shifted, and an elf swordsman appeared out of nowhere in the cabin.

He was tall and slender, with a handsome appearance, long ears, dark green hair. He wore a smile on his lips, his attire was opulent, and he wore a thin sword at his waist, its hilt resembling a rosebud.

Yi Gui’s expression changed again as she recognized the elf swordsman’s identity, “Hua Sheng!”

He was a grand sword sage among the Wood Elves, a legendary pirate on par with Firebeard.

Mo Lie then reacted, her expression easing slightly, a glint of realization flashing through her mind, “Ah, it’s you. You wouldn’t also be here to inquire about the location of the Justice Pirate Group, would you?”

“That’s exactly it,” Hua Sheng bowed slightly, giving a gracious nod, “Miss Mo Lie, I must seek your help this time.”

“When did you two become acquainted?” Yi Gui turned to Mo Lie, her eyes wide.

Mo Lie shrugged, “I’m just a divination master, you need to understand. I’ve been trying to collect holy objects for the Ancestor Spirits, but in your eyes, those clothes are far more valuable.”

Just then, strands of black mist squeezed through the door gap.

A voice came from the mist, “Oh? Are there many old friends here?”

Seeing the characteristic Dark Magic, Yi Gui and Hua Sheng’s expressions darkened slightly, while Mo Lie said, “Welcome, Asa.”

The black mist coalesced into a humanoid form, but he had demon horns on his head.

He held a magic wand, sweeping his blood-red pupils over the three, eventually focusing on Mo Lie, his voice hoarse and unpleasant, “This time, I’ve brought you three holy objects, o diviner of the Voodoo Sect.”

“I only want to know one thing!”

“Where is the Justice Pirate Group?”

Yi Gui glared again, staring at Mo Lie, “You’re in contact with Asa too?”

Mo Lie laughed awkwardly, patting her best friend’s shoulder, “It’s a trade, take it easy!”

Yi Gui crossed her arms, “Hua Sheng, Asa, and just one more, Firebeard, and all three legendary pirates would be here. Did you hook up with Firebeard as well?”

This time it was Mo Lie’s turn to glare, “What do you mean ‘hook up’? Please, I’m just trying to collect holy objects!”

“Perhaps, Firebeard should also be arriving soon?”

But Hua Sheng shook his head, “He won’t be coming.”

“Not long ago, he led his fleet out in full force, departing from Pirate City directly toward the Sky Pillar Sea Eye.”

“According to my covert sources, he has already rescued Feng Yao and others, obtaining firsthand information.”

“Subsequently, he scattered his fleet into more than a dozen groups, each taking different routes.”

“He likely already knows the location of the Justice Pirate Group.”

“We must stop him!”

“If he captures the divine body of Mei Lan, the new master of the pirate throne will be Firebeard.”
