Chapter 423 Black Blood

Chapter 423 Black Blood
In the desolate land, far away from the great Stone Beast Fortress, in a remote place with scarce resources, a black-armored beast-headed man wearing armor that exuded a strong aura of the abyss strode forward.

Some animal-headed people, beast people, etc. met on the road immediately lowered their heads after seeing his figure, for fear that they would attract the attention of the strong man wearing the curse of the abyss.

In this land, "title" affects many things. Following the power dominated by the beasts, "title" is like a pyramid with clear class divisions.

And "Abyss" is definitely one of the most terrifying and top titles.

No one wants to hit the "abyss".

Meeting a strong man in a remote place made the people around him wonder if something big had happened. However, the transportation here was blocked and the information was backward. Even if something big had really happened, they would not know.

"Lionheart lives forever! How can those humans also obtain the gift of the Lord!" The black-armored beast-headed man from the abyss walked into the tavern and sat down on a chair. Several beastmen following behind him also followed.

The beastman in the tavern tremblingly carried up a barrel of wine amidst the shouting, then turned around and ran away with his tail between his legs in fear.

Abyss!
Another beastman came over slowly, put the cup down before picking up the barrel to pour the wine.

"Lord Blackblood," the beastman combed his long hair, grabbed the wine glass and took a sip. The wine wet his already tangled hair, "How about we go back first?"

Their mission this time is to capture a group of humans in the south. It is said that these people came from the east and carried a lot of treasures.

But none of this matters, because the "king" who puts a bounty on humans wants certain information in the human mind, and the Black Blood team just needs to bring the person back.

But no one expected that those humans would actually successfully gain the attention of the beast masters and have the qualifications to survive in this land.

The people dominated by beasts often kill each other, so it is okay to continue to capture people, but that group of humans are very lucky to be protected in the territory by the "king" with the title of "corruption".

The relationship between the two "kings" was average, and Heixue and others did not dare to rush into the territory to rob people, and they could not win the fight, so they could only come to the border in shame.

Whether those humans were served directly as food or were tied up with chains and kept as playthings had nothing to do with Blackblood's team. He only had the strength of 4th ring and had never thought of provoking a 6th ring "king".

I gulped down the wine, but the depression in my heart could not be cleared away.

Then, Heixue's ears moved.

"Have you found those humans?"

Humans? Has the news spread so far? No! The news of my arrest of humans is top secret.

Heixue winked at his men, who nodded and strode into the kitchen.

The walls collapsed and smoke and dust flew.

The beast-headed chef in an apron was spewing blood and lying on the ground in a daze. He just stole a bite while cooking in the kitchen. It shouldn't be that serious.

The pain came too quickly and my mind was still confused.

"You just said, human?" Heixue turned around, and the breath of the abyss on his body was like a sharp thorn, and his body odor kept piercing the noses of the people around him, making people's noses twitch uncontrollably.

"Yes, my lord, human!"

The chef with the animal head did not dare to hide it, and immediately told the story of how he bought a human, and then the human committed suicide and turned into ashes and disappeared, in order to cheat him out of the animal's fangs.

"Go, investigate those humans!" Blackblood was surprised.

Even if they were not humans required for the mission, as long as they caught those delicious ingredients, it would be enough to make up for the expenses of their journey.

Looking at the beast-headed chef lying on the ground trembling, Heixue spat, "Waste!"

He can’t even deal with weak humans, and you still say he’s not useless!

The progress of the investigation was faster than Heixue had imagined. The strength of his men was generally between 2nd and 3rd rings, which made them one of the strongest groups in this remote area, not to mention their professional advantages.

"Lord Blackblood, we have found traces of humans!"

"Tell me in detail!" Heixue had already sent the Beast Head Chef back to cook. Before the food was served, the results of the investigation over there had already come out. It seemed that humans were not far away from here. This was good news.

"There have been cases of selling humans in several small villages around here, and their experiences are similar. After taking the money, they all committed suicide and turned into ashes." The beastman under his command reported everything he had investigated.

"What suicide? It must be the power of the title." Blackblood shook his head, not believing it. Maybe turning into ashes was the way those humans escaped.

He had encountered similar situations before. For example, the human wizard he was tracking before suddenly flashed and disappeared when he approached, and then reappeared in the distance. It was space magic.

How else to explain it? It's impossible that those humans are immortal.

"What else?" asked Blackblood.

"They recently appeared in the desert in the northeast and attacked a group of beastmen."

"What?" Heixue thought he had misheard.

Humans attacking beastmen?
Go against Tiangang!

See if I believe it or not.

The beastman who was reporting nodded. In fact, he was not very willing to believe it. "That was a group of dealers selling scorpion fleas. The humans attacked the dealers. Only one scorpion flea dealer ran away. From what he said, it seemed that those humans attacked just to steal the scorpion fleas."

"Haha, bullshit!" Heixue laughed.

Scorpion flea? How much is it worth? Why would anyone want to buy it?

"The beastman who survived was captured by us."

"Bring it in!"

The beastman who was brought in had a hunched back, a broken arm, and the hair on his face was covered in blood scabs. He looked as pitiful as he could be.

"Sir!" Feeling the breath of the abyss from the other party, the seriously injured beastman fell to the ground without thinking.

"Tell me about your experience in detail."

"We are scorpion flea dealers. We take a batch of scorpion fleas away from the Sand Pit Ranch every year and send them to various beast fort territories for sale. On the way, we met five humans. They were wearing armor and had weapons. They were uniform golden armor and should belong to the army."

"The army?" Heixue's heart moved slightly. Could it be that the army was sent by the human kingdom to rescue the humans he was hunting?

No, that's not possible.

This place is far away from the human world. Unless a million troops can be sent, it is impossible to enter this area.

"Could it be that they are under the command of the King of Corruption?" His pursuit of humans was obstructed by the King of Corruption, and the other party seemed to have a different attitude towards humans, so Black Blood thought of this the first time.

"What about their strength?" asked Heixue.

"Two of them are level 2, and three of them haven't even reached level 1."

"Such a weak army?"

The basic soldiers under the King of Corruption must have the strength of the first ring, the main combat units are even at the second ring, the officers are at the third ring, and the stronger ones even have the fourth ring.

Therefore, these human armies should have nothing to do with the King of Corruption.

"You took the initiative?" asked Heixue.

He knew the nature of these vendors too well. They would never miss an opportunity to make money. Moreover, the food was so precious to humans, so it was normal for them to grab it and sell it for money after seeing it.

The vendor probably didn't expect the other party to be able to resist and even successfully kill him.

However, the strength of these vendors is around 1st ring. It is not reasonable that more than a dozen 1st ring vendors cannot defeat 5 humans.

Even if the number increases tenfold, the scorpion flea dealers will definitely win.

Blackblood has racial confidence in the beastmen. Weak humans cannot possibly fight back, so...how dare the trafficker in front of him lie to him?
Feeling Heixue's scrutinizing gaze, the scorpion flea dealer was horrified: "No, we didn't do anything, seriously! They said they wanted to buy scorpion fleas, and then we conducted the transaction normally. Who knew they would actually attack us after the purchase? We also started to fight back and killed those five people, but more and more human soldiers surrounded us, and we were killed without any armor or weapons!"
