547. Where have all those people gone?
Outside, the hull of the ship suddenly stopped on the shore of an island.
There were a lot of black-clothed people on the dock to answer, led by a sturdy middle-aged man with a hideous old scar on his face, and his fierce aura was overflowing.
And he is the captain of the dark guard beside the city lord, Mo Wolf.
Seeing Lin Wu, Ren Ke and Ling Xiu appear on the bow of the boat, his body that had been standing for a long time also moved, and he went forward, watching the three of them get off the board, followed by many people, all staring at Lin Wu vigilantly and defensively.
Looking at each other, Ren Ke's face became heavier and heavier.
Lin Wu smiled instead, and said meaninglessly: "Lord Mo Wolf has been busy with all kinds of opportunities every day, and he doesn't even have time to rest. Now that he came to pick me up in person, I was really flattered. It turns out that the lord of the castle thinks so highly of me. ”
Ren Ke couldn't help but whisper: "Shut up, do you think this is a good thing?!" ”
She immediately stepped forward and faced Mo Wolf head-on.
"The lord's orders should be obeyed. But I was also ordered by the deputy city lord to bring this traitor back to deal with it, and it is not easy to disobey. In this case, I will go with you, and when the lord of the city has finished seeing the dark voice, I will take her back to restore her life. ”
"Everyone knows that the city lord has always been good to the deputy city lord, and he can't bear to see the deputy city lord tossing and turning all the time because of the traitor's affairs, and he will definitely let the deputy city lord see peace of mind with his own eyes."
Ran Mo Wolf didn't even look at Ren Ke, and said lightly: "The city lord has a life, and the deputy city lord's people don't have to go." In the past, the dark voice caused serious losses to Killer City, and the matter was handled by the city lord. ”
Ren Ke's heart jumped, "Does the city owner leave the secret voice with him?" This is not good, the original residence of the dark voice is the deputy city lord, and I am afraid to disturb the city lord more if I stay......"
Mo Wolf suddenly turned to Ren Ke.
"When is it the turn of the people below to question the city lord?"
Ren Ke's heart tightened, and he lowered his head and said, "Don't dare." ”
Only then did Mo Wolf look at Lin Wu, and turned sideways, "Let's go." ”
Lin Wu glanced at Ren Ke and stepped forward.
Mo Wolf turned around and followed.
Ling Xiu also raised his heels, but when he passed by Ren Ke, he suddenly heard Ren Ke whisper: "Don't forget, you were originally the former deputy city lord's person." You should know what the city lord did. ”
Ling Xiu paused, didn't look at Ren Ke, and followed without any expression.
Lin Wu in front tilted his head slightly, pulled the corners of his mouth, didn't say anything, and followed Mo Wolf for a long time.
Today's night is rare and depressing.
Mo wolf took them to a black lake in front of the opposite bank, on the opposite bank you can see several castles with a strong ancient atmosphere standing, full of the mystery of the last century European, a little bit of dusk lights poured down from the castle window, reflected on the calm lake, the unprovoked cage on the upper layer of the fuzzy veil, was hidden in the cluster of strange mountains and dry forests, majestic and magnificent.
On the east side of the Black Lagoon there is a long bridge made of withered vines.
They crossed the bridge and walked through the woods, ending at the castle gate.
After arriving, Mo Wolf and Ling Xiu both stopped, letting the black-clothed man who came with him stay outside, and only brought Lin Wu in.
Pushing open the door, I saw a huge Zheng Ting, and there was a long staircase on the opposite side that split into the second floor.
Lin Wu was taken by them to the steps on the right, went up to the second floor and followed the corridor to the end, and then went up the stairs to the fifth floor, stopping in front of a wall.
On the walls are supple and heavy black and red ancient carpets, with reliefs supported by columns on each side.
Mo Wolf went to the relief on the left and turned the lifelike jade on it.
There were a few muffled "clicks", the ancient carpet on the wall sank into the ground, and the exposed stone bricks moved and changed rapidly, turning into a secret door, and inside was a dark corridor, and there was no end in sight for a while.
"The lord of the castle is inside." Mo Wolf opened his mouth lightly, standing on one side with his negative hand, and had no intention of going in.
Lin Wu turned her head to look at Ling Xiu, but she didn't move, only nodded at Lin Wu.
Lin Wu suppressed his thoughts and calmly entered.
The moment she stepped in, the corridor suddenly lit up with a dim darkness, and it was a bronze chandelier with four corners every two meters on the walls on both sides.
Lin Wu found at the same time, and the passage behind him also closed.
She looked back and saw the wall.
This made Lin Wu stand in place for a while.
To be honest, in the eighteen years she has lived, she has spent thirteen of her years dealing with Killer City. But she had never seen the city lord himself, and she had never been to the city lord's residence before.
This is the first time.
Thinking about it carefully, the highest person she had come into contact with before was nothing more than the former deputy city lord.
It was the eighteen rakshasas, and she had only come into contact with five people.
Because the top eight are directly under the orders of the city lord to do things. Usually, if there is no order from the city lord, he basically does not show up, and the affairs of each ghost camp should be handled by his subordinates, and he does not interact with other Rakshasa ghost camps, which is extremely low-key.
In addition, the former Eight Rakshasas and their ghost camps are not stationed in the main city of Killer City, only a small part of the forces are stationed on the outskirts of the southern city, and the rest are missing, only the city lord knows.
Usually, the suburbs of the city are still forbidden places, and idle people can't go there without a warrant from the city lord.
There was no direct contact, so the rest of the people in Killer City never knew what they were doing for the city lord.
Of the remaining ten rakshasas, three more are on a mission with people, two of them are lurking outside to select suitable people for the Killer City and send them, and the remaining five and the deputy city lord are the main forces to maintain the operation of the Killer City and handle most of the affairs.
Thinking of this, Lin Wu suddenly realized something-
According to her estimates, there are nearly 100 people in the ghost camp under the name of a rakshasa, and the number varies, and some even have four or five hundred people because of the complexity of the affairs they are responsible for! Then the eighteen combined, there are at least four thousand!
But in her impression, she had never seen the number of people in Killer City go beyond seven or eight hundred.
Not to mention that over the years, the Ten Rakshasas and the Thirteen Rakshasas have kept sending people to the Killer City. After she took over as the Nine Rakshasas, she had secretly looked at the roster, and they sent at least a few hundred people to Killer City every year!
The roster of killers sent by Killer City, she also glanced at it a few times when Fan took over the deputy city lord to check it, but there were only nearly a hundred people.
So where did most of the power of Killer City go??
Lin Wu looked up and looked ahead, could it be related to the disappearance of the former eight rakshasas sent by the city lord?
If so, who is the castle lord? What are so many people doing?
But it's also very strange that there are really so many people in the city lord who can be tribald, which means that his strength and status are unquestionable, so why do you need to use her and Fan to eliminate the former deputy city lord?
The light on the wall became fainter and fainter, as if urging Lin Wu to move forward.
Lin Wu was slightly focused and stepped forward.
The corridor was very long, and there were still bends at the end, and Lin Wu turned several times, and the road he walked faintly went up.
This made Lin Wu feel that this seemed to be a circular staircase that was constantly climbing, and she should have gone up to the height of three floors before finally coming to an end, stopping in front of a black and gold, carved low-luxury door.
Lin Wu hesitated, and was about to knock on the door, when the door suddenly opened!
In the squeak, a quaint and luxurious hall appeared in front of Lin Wu's eyes, like a meeting room.
Lin Wu was stunned, and his heart was vigilant.
At this time, there was a sudden burning pain in the shoulder!
Lin Wu subconsciously touched her left shoulder, and her heart skipped a beat - her tattoo actually came out!
How?
Is the city lord going to kill her here?
Just when Lin Wu hesitated, a hoarse and muffled voice that made it difficult to distinguish between men and women suddenly sounded inside, as if it had come from something else.
"Why don't you come in if you're here?"
"Are you afraid that the lord of this city will attack you?"
It's the lord of the city.
Lin Wu took a slight breath and stepped in.
"Bang-", and the door closed on its own again.
Lin Wu's footsteps paused slightly, suppressed the idea of going to see, and turned to the source of the sound first.
The room was dimly lit, with only bronze chandeliers burning candle oil on the walls, barely enough to see.
Lin Wu saw that a thick black curtain fell to the ground not far away, covering the scene inside.
The lord of the castle is inside.
Lin Wu also felt that his tattoo was getting hotter and hotter.
She squeezed her palm and walked forward.
But when she reached out to lift the curtain, the voice rang out again.
"Come in and take a look after you think about it."
"Otherwise...... The lord of this city will not give you a chance to regret it. ”
