Chapter 508: Chapter 419: The Omniscient on the Emerald Sea (Seeking Monthly Tickets…)

The ship kept moving forward.

Bullets were clearing the pirate ships along the way.

Wu Heng stowed his sniper rifle, and the surrounding battles also gradually drew to an end.

When the gunfire ceased.

Quietness enveloped the surroundings.

All the pirate ships, drifted on the sea waves.

The decks were pockmarked, covered with fresh blood and corpses.

Wu Heng ordered the skeletons to drag over the bodies of the two captains, wrapped them in mats.

And directly placed them into the Space Ring.

Then, he continued to release [Dead Bones Battlefield], where the deceased pirates on the deck rose up as white-boned skeletons from the ground.

“Charge into the cabins and kill everyone.”

Rattle~!

The transformed skeletons surged into the ship’s cabins.

Immediately after, intense fighting broke out, along with the pirates’ screams and curses.

Wu Heng stood by, waiting for a moment.

Pirate corpses were subsequently dragged out from below the cabin decks.

Placed on the deck.

Wu Heng continued to release his skills, transforming them into skeletons.

At this time, Xiao Xiao and Glenda, responsible for the recon, flew back together.

Pointing at the merchant ship besieged by pirates, Xiao Xiao said, “There are still people inside.”

Glenda added, “By their clothes, they’re not pirates, they must be from that merchant ship.”

Xiao Xiao nodded, “Right, right, they don’t look like pirates.”

When Wu Heng arrived, fighting was still happening here.

It seemed that his arrival had attracted the pirates’ attention; not everyone had been killed.

“Let’s go take a look, and after we finish, we can head back early,” Wu Heng instructed the ship to approach and directly jumped onto the opposing deck.

Maintaining a certain distance, he called into the cabin, “I am the Deputy Steward of the Gold and Silver Island Association, you’re safe now, come out and talk.”

From the dim cabin below, a flurry of conversations could be heard.

Wu Heng glanced sideways at Glenda, who was in an invisible state, and went straight into the cabin.

And quickly came flying back.

Whispering in his ear, “They are suspicious of you, not sure if you’re really from the association, they’re somewhat afraid to come out.”

In the midst of speaking, a well-dressed but disheveled bearded short person, carrying a Strong crossbow, walked out.

His eyes swept around.

His pupils contracted violently, disoriented for a few seconds before he came to his senses.

After adjusting himself, he gave a short person’s salute, “Captain ‘Leopold’ of the ‘Vine Grape’ at your service, Deputy Steward.”

“You’re a merchant ship?”

“A merchant ship, we were carrying ore and industrial parts this time, heading to Gold and Silver Island for transshipment before continuing to human ports,” the short person captain replied.

Wu Heng nodded, “Alright, you’re safe now, you can leave on your own, or you can leave with me.”

“We’ll go with you,” the short person said immediately.

“Fine, go check the ship, and follow behind when I leave,” Wu Heng stated directly.

The short person expressed his joyous gratitude, “Thank you, Deputy Steward, once we reach Gold and Silver Island, I will surely visit the association to extend my thanks.”

Wu Heng waved his hand dismissively and returned to his own ship.

Meanwhile, the short person called the others out, rescuing the wounded, and the rest began repairing the ship, getting ready to leave.

After the fighting was completely over.

Wu Heng redistributed the skeletons among the various ships.

Once everything was taken care of, the fleet began to return.

…

Flying Fish Pirate Ship.

Philippa kicked open the door, bellowing, “Babuzzi you son of a bitch, you’re indeed a man of the association.”

Inside the cabin, several core members of the Flying Fish Pirate Group were seated.

Startled by the sudden intrusion, they all jumped.

But upon seeing that it was Philippa, they sat back down again.

Babuzzi, with a big beard, looked equally upset, and said, “Don’t talk nonsense, I’ve lost a ship too, how could I be with the association?”

“Then how did the association’s people get there just as we were about to seize the merchant ship?”

Babuzzi’s brows furrowed, his eyes beneath the thick eyebrows looked at her with suspicion, “How do you know it was the association’s ship, and at that time, you were still behind us.”

Philippa’s expression paused briefly before she quickly said, “Ranger, the Tamed Beast can see the other party, explain to me why a Guild ship would appear there.”

Babuzzi still shook his head, “I’m not sure, perhaps it just happened to be in the area.”

“Bullshit, how could it just happen to be there and then come charging at us while stationary?” Philippa continued angrily.

Babuzzi frowned at her, “What are you suggesting, that I am the damn informant? I’ve lost quite a few brothers myself.”

Both parties were on guard, watching each other suspiciously.

The Guild’s appearance was too coincidental, especially with the recent rumors of spies.

It was impossible not to suspect an inside job.

Philippa said, “Babuzzi, I naturally trust you. We’ve both killed before; the Guild wouldn’t let us join anyway.”

“Hmm.”

Philippa continued, “What I mean is, could there be someone in our fleet? There’s been no shortage of rumors lately about the Guild planting spies in pirate groups.”

“Are you suggesting that someone from our crew leaked the information?”

During the exchange, everyone else in the room turned their gaze towards them.

Philippa explained, “Either us or one of the other two pirate groups that escaped with us.”

“What do you suggest we do?”

“Kill them all, split the ships between us.”

Babuzzi’s eyes flickered slightly, and after looking back at his crew, he nodded and said, “Alright.”

The next day, early morning.

The fleet began to approach Gold and Silver Island.

After explaining the origins of the many battle-damaged pirate ships, they slowly docked at the port.

The Short people’s captain of the merchant ship expressed his gratitude again. Wu Heng hailed a horse-drawn carriage and went straight to the Guild.

Upon reaching the Guild.

He first took two bodies to the morgue and explained the situation to the Coroner.

Protocol still had to be followed, moreover, this involved his own Merit and ‘Philippa’ joining the Secret Speaker.

After chatting briefly with the Coroner.

He left the morgue and headed for the Steward’s Office.

The elf Steward, Imilo, in his purple suit, still sat in his chair, looked up, and asked, “What is it?”

Wu Heng spoke directly, “I’ve received news from the pirates that they planned to raid merchants on the Jasik Route. Based on the intelligence, I killed two level-three Fugitives and saved the people on the merchant ship.”

Imilo looked at him with slight surprise and said, “Where are the bodies?”

“The bodies have been taken to the morgue.”

Imilo praised, “Well done, and that little pirate of yours did well too.”

“Thank you, Steward,” Wu Heng expressed his gratitude and continued, “Steward, with the intelligence provided by Philippa this time, we’ve killed three level-three bounty Fugitives.”

“The matter of the Secret Speaker, right? I remember that. Once the Coroner’s procedure is complete, I will raise this matter with headquarters.”

“Then I thank the Steward on behalf of ‘Philippa’.”

Imilo nodded and said nonchalantly, “Tell her to keep gathering intelligence. When her Merit and rank increase, she can be arranged to work inside the Guild.”

“Okay!”

…

Leaving the office, Wu Heng returned to his own study.

Andre Willow had been tidying the room all morning.

Seeing Wu Heng return safely, she also showed a delighted smile, “Master, have you had breakfast yet?”

“Not yet,” Wu Heng took a seat.

“Then I’ll go to the tavern and order something for you.”

“Keep it simple.”

“Alright.” Andre Willow put down her tools and left with the little owl.

Wu Heng poured himself a cup of fruit tea and sat back down.

He took out the two captains’ Space Rings.

There were many items inside.

Daily necessities, miscellaneous items, underwear, and plenty of gold and silver coins.

Piracy was a high-risk profession, but it also reaped great rewards.

Each pirate was wealthy, an amount most people could never save in their lifetime.

He piled the useless items to one side to be thrown out later.

Then, his gaze fell upon an old book that he had taken out.
