People in Aurora are determined to fight chaos

After welcoming everyone.

In Nongchang City.

"Has there been a death?"

Fan Ming asked as he walked with a gloomy face.

"Yes..." The guard nodded, his expression still heavy. "The deceased was a peddler. He heard that something had fallen in the market, so he went to get it at night. However, he didn't return for an hour. When his wife came to look for him, she only found his body."

"It sounds like a simple vendetta." Fan Ming frowned.

After hearing this, the guard explained in a deep voice: "We thought so at first, but someone who called himself Shadow Raven Guard took over the body and asked us to notify the Lord."

"Oh?" Fan Ming was no stranger to the Shadow Raven Guards. It seemed that this matter was indeed unusual.

Thinking of this, Fan Ming quickened his pace.

By the time he arrived at the scene, two forces were already confronting each other there.

"Don't be nervous, put your weapons down!"

Fan Ming strode into the alley and ordered his soldiers to lay down their weapons.

There were several people in black brocade clothes in their encirclement, obviously they were the Shadow Raven Guards.

When Zhao Song saw the newcomer, he was the first to ask, "Master Fan Mingfan?"

"That's right."

Fan Ming walked without stopping to the side of the fallen body.

The body was dressed in grey linen, with blood soaking the collar and sleeves.

Fan Ming examined his wrist and neck with a gloomy face, and indeed found two very deep knife wounds. The cuts were smooth, as if only one cut was made on each place.

Seeing Fan Ming investigating on his own, Zhao Song told him his findings: "If the murderer just wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't have to cut the wound so deep."

"It's really strange." Fan Ming sighed, then stood up and looked at Zhao Song unhappily, saying, "It shouldn't be the Shadow Crow Guard's turn to take over this matter, why are they interfering in our official business?"

Zhao Song smiled coldly when he heard this, pointed at the corpse and said, "This person is the follower of Jianqi we are tracking down. If the other party wants to kill to silence him, then the murderer may also be a follower of Jianqi."

"I see."

Since it involves Tzeentch's followers, then this matter should indeed be handled by the Shadow Raven Guard. At least Fan Ming does not have the authority to deal with Tzeentch's followers.

"So... Lord Fan, please help us arrest all those who have contact with this person as soon as possible." Zhao Song said respectfully, "Then we will be able to tell if there are any followers of Jianqi hiding among them. If not, we will release them safely."

Although it is a request, usually no one dares to refuse the Shadow Raven Guard, because the latter are direct servants of the Moon Queen.

Although Fan Ming didn't want the Shadow Crow Guards to run wild in his territory, he had no reason to refuse at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and agree to Zhao Song's request.

Seeing that Fan Ming had agreed, Zhao Song bowed and quickly left with the rest of the Shadow Crow Guards.

Fan Ming snorted and ordered the people around him, "Take the body back to the dungeon and keep it under strict guard to prevent anyone from stealing it."

"Yes!"

at the same time.

In a hotel in Nongchang City.

Several figures in black gathered together, seemingly whispering something.

Several corpses rolled beside them, including the elderly and children, as well as young and beautiful girls and strong middle-aged men.

If anyone had been to this hotel, they would know that these bodies belonged to one family.

Without exception, their causes of death were exactly the same, with two bloody holes poked on their necks, as if they had been bitten by some bloodthirsty beast.

With the end of the dark whispers.

There was a layer of blood-colored luster attached to the corpse.

Then, the corpses stood up like drunkards after a hangover, and their faces became rosy and plump under the blessing of some kind of magic.

If you don't look closely at their lifeless eyes, they are basically no different from ordinary people.

"Go, my children... make this our main nest..."

"Yes...my master..."

Like puppets with only flesh and blood left, the family walked out of the room and returned to their respective posts at the order of the mysterious man.

No one noticed anything unusual about this family. They just thought they had become a little silent because they were too tired.

What they didn’t know was that every traveler who entered this hotel never appeared again, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth.

Far away in Shangwu, on the Tianting River.

As expected, darkness enveloped the brightly lit city.

The guards looked at the deepening darkness and felt an ominous feeling in their hearts.

In the ocean-like darkness, there seemed to be some strange noises, as if something was crawling.

They had never seen such a strange night.

Even the experienced supervisor frowned.

"Is it a wild animal?" Someone couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "A group of wild animals, like wolves, will make such noises when they hunt..."

"It doesn't sound like a wolf." Someone analyzed rationally, "It sounds more like the wind blowing leaves."

"But there is no wind tonight..."

Everyone's guess was immediately rejected, but they managed to reach a consensus that there must be something chilling in the darkness.

What could it be?

Everyone looked nervously at the endless darkness until two glowing fireflies appeared in the darkness, followed by dozens, hundreds, and thousands of them...

It was like a large number of fireflies suddenly appeared, but instead of flying around, they just hung in the air motionless.

Such a beautiful scenery did not make the defenders feel intoxicated, but instead gave them goose bumps.

The green fireflies gathered together and finally illuminated the dark night, which also allowed the defenders of Shangwu to see the true form of fireflies...

Not a wolf...

But the one who stood still in the darkness without moving...

And the number of such "people" is still increasing, because fireflies are constantly lighting up around Shangwu, like a sea of ​​fluorescent flowers surrounding the entire Shangwu...

“Sound the alarm…”

The commander of the sect placed his right hand on the scabbard.

a few days later.

"Urgent report! Urgent report!"

The messenger ignored the guards' obstruction and rode his horse straight into Fan Ming's mansion.

Fan Ming was receiving distinguished guests in his mansion at the moment. Just as he was about to shout at them, the messenger shouted first, "Master Fan! Urgent military information from Shilong!"

"The Jade Blood Clan has captured Shangwu and is now besieging Shilong. Shilong's defender Lan Ze has died in battle. I hope Nongchang can mobilize its army to Tongtian Bridge as soon as possible to stop the Jade Blood Clan's army from invading the Nongchang Basin!!!"

"What?!" Fan Ming stood there in a daze, the news exploding in his ears like thunder.

The messenger sighed, "Master Fan, the enemy attacked from three directions on the Disaster Hill, and the entire Tianting River has fallen!"

"The Jade Blood Clan... rebelled!"

Ujitaka.

Fu Zhen covered Lan Ze's body with his hands expressionlessly. As his dirty blood seeped into Lan Ze's mouth and nose, the latter opened his eyes.

"At your command, my Lord."
