Fifteen guards moved closer to Xu Mu, their weapons pointed outward.

The woman in the black skirt looked around and said, "Master Xu, let me take action."

Xu Mu asked, "Are you feeling better?"

"Dealing with these things is not a problem."

"Then come on."

"Yes."

Thank you!

The girl in the black dress drew her weapon and jumped out of the defense circle with a light leap. Facing the group of miscellaneous soldiers in front of her, she was too lazy to even use stealth. She pulled out two daggers with her backhand, held them in her left and right hands, and crossed her arms in front of her face.

A breath came out from between her thin red lips, and golden light shone brightly in the eyes of the girl in the black dress!

It was unclear how she wielded the knife, but with one lunge, she ripped open the stomachs of seven or eight bodies on the path.

The loud "squeak" sounds rang out together, sharp and piercing.

Seven or eight red worms fell to the ground with a thud, twisting and struggling on the ground, obviously not far from death.

The black skirt struck with one strike and didn't pause.

She was a legend, if she couldn't swim freely among these miscellaneous soldiers, then what was the point of her passing? Don't say anymore, in just three breaths, at least forty corpses were attacked, and the puppet worms hidden in their stomachs were also killed by the black skirt!

"So, so strong!"

Someone in the escort team took a breath and exclaimed in admiration.

"Oh my god! Who is this lady?"

"I haven't heard of her...I shouldn't!"

Amidst the constant whispers, everyone secretly looked at Xu Mu.

Who is this Lord Xu?

The woman in the black skirt was respectful and obedient in front of him, not even a hint of strength in her aura. How could she attack...

It will be so powerful!

Captain Dao was also surprised. He thought to himself, "Legend! No doubt about it, this is a legend! Moreover, she must have a profession like assassin and is good at hiding her aura! I thought... she was just Lord Xu's mistress or maid, but I didn't expect..."

So powerful!

Seeing a huge hole in the enemy's formation, Captain Dao made a quick decision and shouted, "The time has come, kill!"

"kill--!"

The rest of the guard team reacted quickly, charging forward with swords raised, killing their way into the enemy group and gaining the upper hand for a while.

"This...how is this possible!"

Seeing his undead army being easily defeated, the village chief really couldn't accept it!

He hurriedly pulled a short staff from his sleeve and began waving it around: "Don't show some real skill, I think you are--Wuwaa ...

Blood spurts.

Wrists flying.

The moment the village chief took out his short staff, the woman in the black skirt turned into black mist and appeared silently behind him, cutting off his arm with just one blow.

After defeating this kind of guy, the girl in black skirt didn't feel any sense of accomplishment, and she had no interest in talking.

She kicked the village chief to the ground, her bright golden eyes piercing the darkness, and she looked at Xu Mu with a smile.

Step by step.

She walked gracefully, stepping over the pool of blood and corpses, and slowly approached Xu Mu: "Master Xu, it's over."

Yes.

ended.

The village chief was unconscious and the villagers were in disarray. With the powerful fighting power of the black skirts, victory came so easily.

"Aren't you going to praise me?"

While Xu Mu was silent, the woman in the black skirt spoke again.

She placed her hand on her chest and continued to plead, "Master Xu, I want to hear your praise."

what.

Ok.

Xu Mu nodded: "Well done!"

"You taught me well!"

What does it have to do with me!

Not so good...

This black dress looks incredibly sweet!

……

……

As the night ended and the day dawned, the bonfire was burning.

Xu Mu and the girl in black skirt sat by the fire, watching the garrison busying around.

Captain Dao, who hadn't slept all night, came running to report, "Master Xu, the battlefield has been cleared, and the village has been searched. All 130 people from Jiaojiao Village are here, and no one has survived. The bandit leader committed suicide, and we searched his residence and found these things—"

thump.

A member of the garrison team brought a box and placed it in front of Xu Mu.

There was a notebook, several books, and a broken rubbing in the box.

Xu Mu took a quick look and found that one book was about the research and application of the evil technique "flesh and blood parasitism", another book was about teaching people how to cultivate "puppet worms", and the notes contained the village chief's own understanding and insights.

As for that rubbing...

It is probably the rubbing of the skill "Flesh and Blood Parasite".

Xu Mu had no interest in this skill that had absolutely no justice at all.

Inside the box, there was a petri dish and several clusters of insect eggs.

Xu Mu shook his head. He closed the box and asked, "Captain Dao, have you reported the situation?"

Captain Dao nodded: "I have reported it. The superiors sent instructions saying that they have sent people over and asked us to wait on the island first."

"Understood. I'll take care of this box, and you take care of the rest."

"Yes!"

Captain Dao saluted and left without saying anything more.

Xu Mu stood on the box, carefully recalling everything he had just experienced.

Seeing him frown, the woman in the black skirt asked, "What are you thinking about, Archon?"

Without even looking up, Xu Mu said, "I'm wondering if this matter is that simple. It seems like this incident has nothing to do with the Sea Fog Demon King. It's purely the village chief's evil deeds... But Horn Island is so close to the Sea Fog Demon King's city. I think it's hard to disassociate this matter from the Sea Fog Demon King."

Chapter 162 #159 Good calculation!

The already deserted Jiaojiao Village is now dead silent.

Captain Dao was a kind-hearted man. He did not burn all the bodies. Instead, he led the garrison team to cut wood and make coffins to bury everyone.

He sighed and said, "What a sin! I wonder how those wandering children out there would react if they knew their parents had suffered such a disaster!"

To this-

Xu Mu expressed his appreciation, but he did not participate in the action.

It's not that he is heartless, but he feels that this matter may not be that simple and he still needs to verify some information.

When it was bright, Xu Mu stood alone on the shore, watching the rising and falling waves.

The Punishment King Xiao appeared silently beside him and said, "Xu Wudi, did you find anything? I heard quite a commotion. Is there something wrong over there?"

"The fight started."

Xu Mu told the whole story in detail.

He concluded, "After being knocked down by the black skirt, the village chief committed suicide with a dagger. Now there's no evidence. I wonder if the changes in Horn Village were his own actions, or if they were related to the Sea Mist Demon King... Lord Xiao, how are you doing?"

Xiao shook his head, his expression unfriendly. "I clearly sensed unusual fluctuations on the island, but I couldn't find the source. I searched all night and found nothing."

is it?

Xu Mu asked, "From your understanding, is it possible that the village chief could have mastered the mind-controlling magic of 'Flesh and Blood Parasite' through these two books?"

With his hands behind his back, Xiao asserted, "Without guidance, this would be impossible! Mind control is an extremely complex skill. Flesh and Blood Parasite may not be a top-level mind control technique, but it's very difficult to learn. How could an uninformed human possibly master it? There must be someone guiding us behind the scenes. The probability that this matter is related to the Sea Mist Demon King is ninety-eight percent!"

"Why... ninety-eight percent?"

"The result of the calculation. Do you want to hear my calculation process?"

Forget it.

Xu Mu gestured with his hands and said, "Shall I take you to see the village chief's body?"

Xiao nodded indifferently: "Okay, the corpse is the only thing that can talk now."

The two of them returned to Jiaojiao Village, one in front and one behind.

Considering that he would show Xiao the corpse, Xu Mu made preparations from the beginning and stopped the village chief in a corner of the village.

When they arrived at the morgue, Xiao walked forward without saying a word, lifted the white cloth and began to observe the situation.

Three minutes later, he pried open the village chief's mouth and sneered, "Xu Wudi, look."

click!

Xiao exerted force and broke the village chief's cervical vertebrae, making his head face Xu Mu.

Xu Mu was startled. He squinted his eyes and noticed something unusual: "Where's his tongue?"

Xu Mu was present when the bodies were being collected.

He could guarantee that there was no tongue-like piece of flesh at the scene: "Could it be that he not only used a knife to cut out his heart, but also did it in two ways, biting off his tongue and swallowing it?"

"Impossible, look carefully."

Tear!

Xiao exerted force again and actually tore off half of the village chief's face!

"I……"

Xu Mu took a step back in fear and shouted angrily, "Master Xiao! Shouldn't you respect the dead? He's already dead! Is it appropriate for you to tear off half of his face?"

Xiao's face was cold: "He should be glad that he is dead. Even if he were still alive, I would tear his face off. I am the torturer. You don't think this is cruel to me, do you? It's just a daily routine."

you……

Xu Mu waved his hands repeatedly: "You and I really have nothing in common."

Half of the village chief's face was missing, and his mouth was completely exposed.

It was only then that Xu Mu realized that the village chief's tongue had completely disappeared. There was no doubt that it was impossible for him to bite it so thoroughly with his own strength.

His tongue looked more like it had been cut off.

Xiao was calm. He threw away the dirty deerskin gloves and took out a new one from his pocket and put it on.

During this process, his mechanical palm was exposed to Xu Mu.

He began, "You should have noticed that this human's tongue didn't disappear 'himself.' If I'm not mistaken, this is probably a mind-control technique called the 'Tongue Spell,' which is a bit more advanced than the 'Flesh Parasite' used by ordinary villagers. After the Tongue Spell takes effect, the puppet worm will eat the recipient's tongue and replace it. The recipient's thoughts, words, and actions are all controlled by the 'Tongue Spell,' and the recipient is unaware of it. It's not that this old human can use 'Flesh Parasite,' but that the Tongue Spell is using the Flesh Parasite."

Xiao looked at Xu Mu and said, "After seeing this corpse, I understand everything. The incident on Horn Island is not that simple. The probability of it being related to the Sea Fog Demon King has risen to 99 percent."
