Chapter 142: 139, Life is a Disease (4000 words, updated first)_2



“What? Didn’t catch that!”

Wu Heng made a signal to those behind him.

Duke froze for a moment, then burst towards the door.

Bang—squeak!

The intense collision made the door creak painfully.

Bawudong quickly took over Duke’s position, kick the door with force, and with a loud bang, the shaky wooden door fell backward.

A thick smell of blood rushed towards them.

“Ah~! Damn it, who are you guys?” angry roars echoed from inside the room.

Stomp, stomp, stomp~!

Three figures, like agile cheetahs, rushed towards the people at the entrance first.

Bang~!

Bang, bang, bang!

Several people pulled the trigger simultaneously, and a burst of bullets fired at the two figures straight ahead.

The figure that jumped into mid-air fell from the sky, bleeding profusely.

Then, the bullets continued to shoot at the people behind.

Swish, swish~swish!

In the room, the remaining people moved quickly.

Leaving afterimages in the dim room.

They can dodge bullets?

“Damn, let’s fight our way out!”

“It’s Iron Guard Knights, they discovered us.”

“Let’s fight our way out, the blood bestows upon us immortal bodies.”

The figures inside the room quickly rushed towards the door.

Moments later, their bodies were pierced by bullets and hit the ground moaning.

Suddenly, a figure, approached the door swiftly from behind.

The gun muzzle elevated towards the charging figure.

However, the next moment.

Whoosh~!

The figure turned into a wisp of black smoke, bypassing those in the room and darted out of the door, towards distance.

“We follow him.”

Holding down the trigger, bullets continued to shoot towards the black smoke.

Thump, thump, thump~!

A series of ‘thump, thump, thump’ sounds echoed as the burst of bullets pierced the black smoke.

Just like a shooting into a mud pit.

Clearly, the black smoke can’t float up high like real smoke; it could only maintain a height of about two meters.

Even if trying to escape into distance, it was impeded by the burst of bullets, quivering and unable to move.

At the same time, the substance within the black smoke solidified increasingly.

As they fired in confusion.

The black fog suddenly condensed to form the figure of someone wrapped in a black robe.

He shouted loudly: “I can give you money, let me get out of here.”

“After killing so many people, and you still want to go?” Wu Heng signaled again.

Bang, bang, bang~!

Bullets once again shot out, piercing his chest.

With each bullet hitting the man, his body swayed, slowly retreating backwards.

“You can’t kill me, I’m with a gang in the Outer City Area…”

Bang, bang, bang~!

His words were cut off as the bullets tore through his body again.

He fell to the ground, blood pooling around him.

Even though they had killed the man, Wu Heng was still surprised at how tenacious he had been.

He actually made the two skeletons empty two clips before finishing him off.

Duke ran up, raising his battle-axe ready to behead the dead.

“No need to chop, too much blood, it won’t be easy to carry.” Wu Heng said directly.

“I’m worried he’s faking death.”

“He’s dead, take off his scarf.”

Duke gripped the corpse’s scarf, which had been covering its mouth and nose, revealing the face of a gaunt middle-aged man.

Wu Heng took out a tablet device, called up the bounty list on the guild’s network and began to compare.

[Paltchak, reward of 720 silver and mid-level tool rewards.]

At this point, Mata also ran over.

Looking together at the screen.

When it was discovered he really was a criminal, she was taken aback.

He’d escaped from the Yeko Kingdom.

The reward included money as well as mid-level tool rewards.

It was quite a wealthy bounty.

This trip for their team hadn’t been for nothing.

“Really a wanted criminal!” Duke also expressed surprise.

Although he provided the information, he didn’t expect it to be an actual wanted criminal.

After all, luck plays a big part in these kinds of things.

Wu Heng continued, “Duke, get a horse-drawn carriage. Mata, go to the basement of the room and rescue those women. Be careful not to fall into any traps.”

“Yes, captain.” The two agreed and immediately set off in different directions.

Wu Heng then went over to the last corpse, extended his right hand covered with a leather-armored glove, and opened its mouth for a look.

Two tusks, very noticeable.

Just like the vampires seen in movies.

“Strip him for me!”

Basen and Bawudong immediately stepped forward and began to remove the clothes from the corpse on the ground.

Only a thin layer of clothing was left on the inside.

A black cloak, leather armor, a short blade, and a backpack.

Wu Heng squatted down and directly opened the backpack.

Money bag, Snake Badge Consortium’s deposit and withdrawal certificate, and a golden wine cup, the edges of which were filled with various gems.

[Blood Cup (Special Item)]

[Type: Special Item]

[Function: Drink fresh blood with the cup to transform physical constitution.]

[Side Effect: Blood dependence, light phobia.]

[Description: Life is a disease, curing it requires a high price.]

Special Item!

Such a small group from the church actually had a special item?

This was indeed somewhat unexpected.

But it could be confirmed that the high agility displayed by these guys, especially the leader with the ability to turn himself into smoke and become completely immune to physical damage for a certain time, was definitely related to this special item, the Blood Cup.

That’s why they had to drink blood.

The side effect was ‘blood dependence’.

But he wanted that power to turn into smoke himself.

Soon, the women detained in the room were set free, crying and wailing, they must have been scared out of their minds.

Some people had also gathered nearby, including the gangs responsible for the security of the area.

Mata was communicating with those people.

Wu Heng took all the equipment and the backpack and put them into the Space Ring.

In a little while, Duke came over in a horse-drawn carriage, threw the bodies on the carriage, and the team began to head back.

On the way, the middle-aged man who had led them to the body earlier also hurried over.

“Thank you, captain. Thanks, everyone. This is all the money we could scrape together. Use it to buy some drinks.” He said as he handed over a bag of money.

“Never mind, give it back to everyone else. This was a wanted criminal, so we’ll have a bounty after we get back.” Wu Heng said.

“How could that be? We had an agreement. You must accept it.”

The situation in the Outer City Area was different.

When an issue became too complex, even the governing gang could not handle it.

Residents in the vicinity would have to pool money to hire mercenaries to handle it, which would require more money and may not yield any results.

Wu Heng looked at the man holding onto the money bag tightly, took the bag, and said, “Alright, I will take the money. If there’s a problem in the future, come find Duke. If we can help, we will.”

“Thank you, captain. Thank you, everyone.”

Wu Heng waved his hand, the carriage continued on its way, passing through the city gate and entering the Outer City Area.

The carriage creaked along.

The sky began to drizzle, seeming to herald an impending storm.

Duke and Mata escorted the carriage.

The Black-Feathered Eagle perched on the carriage, its eyes fixed on the bodies, remaining still.

“Captain, did we do a good deed this time? We even managed to save a few people.” Duke asked, his hand casually leaning on the side of the carriage.

“Yes, it’s a good deed. Continue to gather information afterwards. Our target is still the wanted criminal.”

“Alright. I believe I have managed to grasp some methods.” Duke replied.

The team slowly advanced ahead pulling the carriage.

They passed by a tavern.

By chance, they saw a red-haired busty woman in a trench coat came out of the tavern, an underling was holding an umbrella next to her, whispering something.

‘Wen Mansha’, the wife of the Pinned Gang’s leader.

As the carriage passed by them, their gazes briefly met.

Wen Mansha gave a little cough, “The weather isn’t so great today. I don’t need someone to stand guard for me.”

“Mam, things have been chaotic lately. I’m afraid it might be dangerous if we don’t arrange for someone to guard.” One of the underlings said.

Wen Mansha glared at him, “Only if you say so. It’s raining heavily tonight. What if our brothers catch a cold? They can come back tomorrow morning.”

The rest of the underlings were happy.

They thought to themselves, ‘Mam really cares for us.’

“Thank you, Mam.”

“Um, order some food from the tavern and have it sent to my room, then you all can leave.”

“Yes, Mam.”

The carriage rolled past the front of the tavern.

It entered the inner city and returned to the guildship.

The bodies were taken to the morgue, handed over to the staff for identity verification.

“Alright, everyone can go home. Once we’ve confirmed the identity of the bodies, we will distribute the bounty tomorrow.” Wu Heng said.

“Alright, captain.”

“Oh!”

The two Beastmen left, and Wu Heng also packed up his things.

He held up his umbrella and headed towards ‘Wen Mansha’s’ residence.
