"A contract, or a curse?"
Wu Ming looked at the corpses on the ground, and frowned slightly: "That's fine, at least the hands and tails are clean!"
Obviously, on these Western thugs, there is still the countermeasure of the black hand behind the scenes. Once certain conditions are met, it will be activated immediately, killing people and killing them, not even leaving their souls behind.
Even though Wu Ming has the ability to save people, if he really does it, he will definitely be noticed by the black hand behind the scenes and provoke the enemy.
This time, he just came out to help and distract himself. It would be unwise to provoke such an enemy without knowing the benefits, so he let it go.
"It's this..."
With a move of Wu Ming's eyes and a move of his hand, an object above the leader's corpse fell into his palm.
"Very strange fluctuations..."
What appeared in the palm of his hand was a black ring with a strange shape, simple and simple lines, carved into the shape of a black snake with its own tail in its mouth, and every scale was extremely delicate.
Naturally, there are other high-level magic items on this leader, but in Wu Ming's eyes, this is nothing more than that.
Only this ring looked ordinary, but there was a hint of aura on it that even Wu Ming couldn't fathom.
"It seems to be involved in a big conspiracy..."
Wu Ming looked at the ring on his hand, with a strange expression on his face: "However, since the information has been successfully suppressed, and the information is not leaked, the mysterious organization should not have any troubles..."
"Girl Guo'er, come here!"
He beckoned, the sea of flames went out, and the little girl came in nervously, holding the long sword in both hands: "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, but they have been silenced..."
Wu Ming shrugged his shoulders: "According to the appearance of the death, I believe they have been cursed, and they can notify the New Territories Port Authority and the Federation."
"okay!"
The little girl Zhang Guo looked at the corpses all over the floor, her expression froze.
Ask yourself, even if her brother Zhang Fan is here and invites a bunch of magicians and warriors to help out, facing this obviously extraordinary task, it is very likely to fail, or even wipe out the whole army.
But now, all the corpses of those thugs were placed in front of him!
This shows what
"He... They, are they all master-level powerhouses?"
The little girl's voice trembled a little. If Wu Ming is really such a strong man, then what is she still struggling in the academy for? Wouldn't it be good to just worship Wu Ming as a teacher
"of course not… "
Wu Ming touched his nose and keenly sensed the little girl's psychological changes: "Okay, what are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and work!"
…
New Territories Port, within the government office.
"Tsk tsk...the two civil righteous men are really good at it!"
An official of the Dachang Empire first looked at the corpses of the Xiyi people who were transported, and then compared them with several images, nodded: "It is indeed the gang of thugs, although one is missing..."
"The missing one is called Black Jess, and it has been burned to ashes!"
Zhang Guo rolled his eyes: "If you want to see it, my lord, let me know, and I can bring his ashes..."
"That's it!"
The official was smiling, and he was not very angry: "Okay, little girl, bring your paperwork, the official's attached certificate..."
If the other party was just one or two ordinary people, of course he wouldn't be so amiable.
But now he has received an urgent notice from the Protectorate's Mansion, knowing that these Xiyi people are not only ruthless, but may also be very powerful, so he is preparing to send more people.
At this time, they saw the corpses of these Xiyi people. What does this mean
The girl in front of him was fine, the key was that the young man next to him who kept his eyes closed and meditating really gave him an unfathomable feeling.
For this kind of cultivator, posting official scores and so on is completely playing the piano to the cow, after all, the pursuit is different.
"This...Mr. Wu Ming..."
As a result, Zhang Guo got the meritorious service certificate he had dreamed of, and he couldn't see his eyes with a smile. The official looked at Wu Ming and sighed: "Because you are a foreigner and have never been a Chinese citizen, it is a pity that you cannot record military achievements. …”
He shook his head, seeming to be quite regretful: "Otherwise, according to this mission record, the military merits obtained are enough to be promoted to 'Soldier'."
The scholar-bureaucrats of the Dachang Empire are different from official ranks. They are only open to citizens of their own country. Even the lowest rank of scholar-officials can enjoy the preferential treatment of exemption from tax and corvee, and the privilege of not kneeling when seeing officials. They have always been very popular.
'what the hell… '
Zhang Guo next to him heard this, but rolled his eyes speechlessly: "This mission has killed several master-level western powerhouses. If it really counts as a military achievement, I am afraid it is enough to be promoted to a doctor. Not even the lowest doctor!"
But at this moment, she pursed her lips and didn't say a word.
Although Zhang Guo is a little careless, it doesn't mean he is stupid.
After being instructed by Wu Ming, she also realized that this group of Western thugs was unusual, and she had long ago decided to keep her mouth shut, not to cause any trouble, and just treat them like ordinary prisoners.
Moreover, she still wanted to worship Wu Ming as her teacher, at least she had to make a good relationship, so how could she offend this strong man right in front of her eyes
"Mr. Wu Ming..."
After leaving the official office, Zhang Guo immediately excitedly said: "Let's go to the Federation right now? After handing in the task, we will go to the Academy, where there are also a lot of classics..."
"No need for now!"
Wu Ming raised a jade ring in his hand, with words faintly written on it.
This is a gift from the previous official, and it can be regarded as a reward given by the Dachang Empire to foreigners who have made special contributions. It is an honorary status, and in Wu Ming's understanding, it is an honorary citizen of the New Territories Port.
With this, at least all activities in the New Territories Port will be unimpeded.
"Is that so..."
Miss Zhang Guo lowered her head, looking very regretful: "Aren't you with me anymore?"
"Well! Take care, there will be a period later!"
Wu Ming patted the little girl's head, turned and left, and disappeared in the crowd not long after.
"Hmph! She is not a little girl!"
Zhang Guo looked at his figure full of resentment, and immediately waved his small fist angrily.
…
Tread! Tread!
It's just that she didn't expect that at night, a rush of horseshoes rushed into the official office.
"what happened?"
The official who had just received Wu Ming during the day and reported to his superiors opened the door sleepily: "Dare to break into the official office, are you impatient?"
"grown ups!"
A young servant came rushing over, with a whip mark on his face: "Here comes someone from the army, he is a soldier of the Duhu Mansion!"
"What?"
The official was surprised: "Get my coat and hat!"
After hastily dressed, he came to the scene and saw more than a dozen black horses wandering wantonly in the back garden, eating up many roses, peonies and precious flowers.
Most of these black horses are extremely tall and have a very strong physique. There are even pieces of scale-like carapace on the abdomen, which perfectly protects the vitals. There is a small protrusion on the top, like a small horn.
"Black dragon horse?!"
After recognizing that this is a rare dragon breed, the official's heart became even heavier: "This is a mount that only the personal soldiers of Lord Fufeng protector can have. What happened to such a small New Territories port? "
"Where are they?"
He immediately asked the servant next to him.
"Several military masters went directly to the morgue!"
The boy answered immediately.
"The morgue? Could it be..."
The official was startled, and suddenly thought of the scene during the day: "Could it be that these Xiyi people have other secrets about them?"
When I rushed to the morgue, I saw more than a dozen black-armored sergeants scattered in twos and threes. They seemed to be strolling in the courtyard, but in fact they had already sealed off the entire courtyard.
"Zhuotie!"
A man in black armor strode out, calling the official's name: "Who sent these corpses?"
"Bold..."
A servant next to him was about to yell and scold, but Zhuo Tie slapped him back.
He carefully looked at the face of the man in black armor, and suddenly his whole body trembled, and he knelt down: "Your official Zhuotie, I have met Lord Fufeng Protector!"
This Fufeng Guard looked to be in his thirties or forties, and his face was like a chiseled knife. It was the most orthodox soldier's appearance, with masculinity and determination.
"Free, get up!"
He turned around and looked at the corpse of the Xiyi people whose white cloth had been removed in the morgue, his eyes seemed to be radiant.
"Your Honor!"
However, Zhuo Tie reported respectfully: "These corpses were sent by righteous men from the Federation. It is said that the bandits resisted very fiercely, and when they finally saw that they were invincible, they committed suicide! The documents and evidence are all there. The rewards have also been distributed... "
He paused, then asked hesitantly: "But there is something wrong with these corpses?"
"Whether there is a problem, I don't know yet, but according to the information obtained by Ben Duhu, the people who infiltrated and caused trouble this time should not be too simple... Even if there are a few master-level characters among them!"
Fufeng Duhu waved his hand, and a middle-aged man with a cold face immediately stepped forward, as if stroking a lover, his fingers caressed the leader's skin.
Originally, there was a gangster in the government office, but when he saw this man's technique, he immediately felt ashamed and knew that he had encountered such a master.
The middle-aged man fiddled with it a few times, and took out a small silver knife, and cut open the palm of the middle-aged boxer, the leader of the Xiyi people.
"Sure enough..."
His eyes moved: "Look, my lord... Although the physique of a master-level powerhouse is introverted, it is difficult to see it outside, but this person's bones are stronger than steel, and his bone marrow is as frosty as jade. I am afraid that he is only one step away from a master! "
"Is that so?"
Fufeng Duhu murmured, and then looked at Zhuo Tie: "You are lucky, a big crisis was solved by the nobleman just like that..."
"It's just... His opponent obviously only hurts but doesn't kill, and his strikes are extremely measured, but this person was killed?"
Doubt appeared on the middle-aged face of the autopsy: "This method..."
