Chapter 1117: Mourning-Level Fierce Spirit
"Silver Coin, Silver Coin, what's going on? Why are there so many human airships?" Negris hurriedly contacted Silver Coin via the soul network.
"Are there many? How many ships? Are they going to the Undead City? I reported it. The army of the Joseph system has unknown movements, but it is unclear where the target is. My intelligence network there is not complete, and I only collected this information," Silver Coin responded.
Business networks are often intelligence networks. Business intelligence and military intelligence sometimes have no difference. Some shrewd commanders can often infer the enemy's military movements from changes in business information.
For example, food prices suddenly rose or fell, military supplies were suddenly controlled, business in small taverns near military camps suddenly became bleak, etc., all indicating that some military activities were underway.
So Silver Coin often served as Anthony's intelligence officer, responsible for collecting and analyzing intelligence, and extending the intelligence network through the business network.
This was already a habitual cooperation between Anthony and Silver Coin. They started this cooperation on the Starburst plane. After coming here, they didn't even need to discuss it. While Silver Coin collected business information, he picked out some relevant information to study and analyze, and then summarized and reported it to Anthony and Ang.
Of course, Ang ignored it. He never paid attention to this information that had nothing to do with farming, but Silver Coin would still report a copy to him.
Some time ago, from the collected information, Silver Coin found that the army of the Joseph system had abnormal movements. Many small taverns had fewer soldiers from the army, and various military supplies in the market were in short supply, and prices had risen a lot.
Many chambers of commerce received requests from the military to exchange or withdraw magic crystals. Magic crystals are a large-denomination currency. Generally, the army does not use magic crystals. They will exchange them for gold coins and silver coins. If they can't spend them, they won't keep them in their hands, but deposit them in the chamber of commerce to collect interest.
Only when preparing for war, and a war that requires a large consumption of magic crystals, will they deliberately exchange them for magic crystals and withdraw them. What things require a large consumption of magic crystals? Airships and teleportation arrays.
In the territory of the Joseph system, Silver Coin's business network did not spread out, and there were only a few contact points, so it could not collect too much intelligence.
According to limited intelligence, he and Anthony judged that the other party should be forming an expeditionary army, and the target was likely the Feilie Empire.
After having this judgment, Anthony and Silver Coin threw this matter aside. They hadn't expected that the other party's airship fleet would appear in the Undead City?
Anthony also connected to the soul network for the first time and asked: "What are they doing there?"
"How would I know? They were discovered as soon as they arrived," Negris said.
Anthony said: "You stall them, we'll be there soon."
"That's not necessary to be so anxious. Old Immortal is here," Negris said.
"What? The Emperor is there? We'll teleport there immediately." Anthony was even more anxious: "If we go slowly, the Emperor will kill them all. You stall the Emperor and leave some alive."
"Uh, then hurry up. I seem to see the emblem of the Black Rope Mercenary Group. What kind of luck is this? The little snake cursed them, right?" Negris happened to see a familiar emblem on one of the airships and couldn't help but laugh.
The little snake, also known as the Snake of Misfortune. Being cursed by the Snake of Misfortune, that was really a bad luck guy believing in the God of Misfortune, unlucky to the core.
Negris looked at the Emperor gloatingly, only to find that the Emperor was just looking from afar, without any special reaction.
Negris thought he didn't recognize the Black Rope's emblem and hurriedly reminded: "Right, it seems the Black Rope Mercenary Group captured you, right?"
The Emperor's bones stiffened, and he turned his head stiffly. The soul fire in his eye sockets burned fiercely: "Damn it, Negris, have you been nagging about this everywhere? Have you? Have you!!!"
The Emperor was so angry that he jumped over, grabbed Negris's neck with both hands and shook it, shook it: "Have you been singing about my embarrassing things everywhere? Have you mentioned this whenever you have a chance? You dead Negris, I'll strangle you."
Negris nagging about him being captured was even more infuriating to him than being captured, just like someone spreading your embarrassing things is more hateful than the embarrassing thing itself.
Negris was shaken until its eyes were dizzy, struggling and shouting: "Let go of me, Old Immortal. If you don't let go, I'll spray you."
Seeing that it could still shout while being strangled, it was clear that the Emperor didn't use any force at all.
"Spray, I'll let you spray. I knew your broken mouth would definitely do this kind of thing. Have you forgotten why I erased your memory before?" The Emperor shook even more vigorously.
"You erased my memory, of course I forgot. Let go quickly, I'll spray you, spray~ spit!" Negris sprayed a mouthful of dragon breath.
"Eh?" The Emperor shrank, dodged Negris's dragon breath, and grabbed it in his hand: "Your dragon breath is a bit strange. What did you do?"
The Emperor had just woken up and didn't know about the Water Source. He only thought Negris had changed a body. Changing a body was not a big deal for a skeleton.
Negris casually said a few characteristics of the Water Source, and then asked: "Why did you erase my memory before?"
"I finally erased it, and now I'm going to tell you? Are you going to pass on two things at once?" The Emperor knocked unhappily in front of him. Negris, who was a few meters away, felt a violent knock on his head.
Just then, teleportation fluctuations rippled nearby, and with a flash of light, Ang teleported out with Anthony, Silver Coin, Red Star, Walker, Ursman, etc.
The Emperor immediately grabbed Negris's neck again and shouted at Anthony: "Piero, come and help, help me erase its memory. It talks bad about me everywhere every day."
Anthony rubbed his hands and responded loudly: "Okay, Emperor, I'll be there soon."
Although he responded loudly, his footsteps didn't move. In terms of human relations, Anthony was much more knowledgeable than Negris.
Sure enough, the Emperor wasn't serious. He let go after shaking it a few times and knocked it on the forehead again.
Negris covered his forehead and asked: "Are you really not going to do anything to them?"
"Do something? Kill them, reincarnate them, and then enslave them? Am I that bored? If you didn't nag every day, who would remember this? Piero, do you remember?" The Emperor asked.
Anthony "stunned" for a moment and said ignorantly: "What? What thing? Don't remember. Did anything happen?"
"Although I don't intend to do anything to them, I want that Black Rope. I feel that Black Rope is a bit strange. That is not its complete form. I don't know what is sealed in it." The Emperor said.
"Here it comes, here it comes. Speak of the Black Rope and the Black Rope comes. Eh, what is she dragging? She tied the Black Rope to the airship, what is she dragging?" Negris asked in confusion.
No one spoke, everyone was watching the other end of the Black Rope. At this moment, the black rope didn't know how long it extended, and was probing into the depths of the void, slowly dragging something out.
Negris couldn't see clearly what was being dragged, so he hurriedly projected onto Ang to share his vision. The distant void immediately appeared clearly before his eyes.
I saw the Black Rope split into hundreds of strands, extending into a spatial vortex, like split hair, stabbing into it.
Some of the splits had already left the spatial vortex. Looking closely, the splits were actually dragging a purple Mourning Soul. If every split was dragging the same Mourning Soul, wouldn't it be dragging hundreds of Mourning Souls?
Everyone was dumbfounded, even the Emperor was no exception. Hundreds of Mourning Souls?
"No, these soul fluctuations are a bit chaotic, not like complete Mourning Souls." The Emperor soon found something wrong.
"It's a Fierce Spirit, it's a Fierce Spirit. A Mourning-level Fierce Spirit? Hundreds of them? How is it possible? Where did they come from?" Negris said in horror.
"No, these soul fluctuations are somewhat chaotic; they don't look like complete mourning souls." The monarch quickly discovered something was wrong.
"They are fierce spirits, they are fierce spirits, mourning-level fierce spirits? Several hundred of them? How is that possible? Where did they come from?" Negris said in shock.
