Chapter 201: The Greatest Undiscovered Traitor Appears

Cang Xu pondered with all his mind how he could help the fishmen take back Two Eyes Island as best as possible.

“The greatest obstruction to the fishmen is that flying magic ship!”

“With my strength alone, it is impossible to take that ship.”

“What about destroying it?”

“Unless I am in control of the Deep Sea Monster Fish can I bombard it.”

“The Deep Sea Monster Fish is also a gold level magic ship, capable of threatening Hun Tong’s flagship.

“However, the flagship’s full functions haven’t been displayed yet.”

“The Deep Sea Monster Fish might not necessarily be capable of shooting it down.”

“Furthermore, it is under Zi Di’s control, while the commander, Zong Ge, and the others won’t stand by and watch.”

Cang Xu decided to forgo returning to take control of the Deep Sea Monster Fish.

He continued to deeply ponder, “I am only an iron level, I can’t do anything about Hun Tong’s flagship, but I can menace a gold level like Hun Tong.”

“However, my ghosts and necromancy cannot inflict serious damage to gold levels.”

“Gold levels are not suitable targets, but silver levels can be dealt with!”

Cang Xu knew that as an iron level, he wasn’t strong enough to go against Hun Tong and the other gold levels.

But with necromancy path’s properties, it was feasible for Cang Xu to kill the silver levels that were the backbone of Two Eyes Island.

At this point in the battle, Hun Tong didn’t have many silver levels left.

The city guard commander had died first.

Not long after, the purple scaled fishman killed the alchemist.

This left the pharmacist and One Eye still in play.

“Kill those two first!”

“Ku Feng, Bei Ban, and the other silver levels can be considered loners.”

“As long as the human silver levels crumble, that will undoubtedly effect the gold level clashes, allowing the fishmen to gain the advantage.”

Cang Xu’s line of thought was very clear, and in nearly a second, had draw up an opposition plan.

He was once a noble steward and knew the hearts of men.

The humans indeed had the momentum while the fishmen were completely on the downturn, but the fishmen weren’t completely hopeless yet.

If the situation went sour, loners like Ku Feng and Mei Ban would waver.

When they fled, that would cause others to flee too, ultimately creating a rout.

Morale was always a crucial element.

In the history books, there were many battles were the few defeated the many, and the weak were victorious over the strong.

If Hun Tong had half the training skill Zong Ge had, it wouldn’t be like this.

But he didn’t.

He was a talented businessman, and had sufficiently visible military power, and with his greatest trump card that was his gold level magic ship, he really was powerful.

But he also had flaws and failings.

He had run Two Eyes Island for many years, yet didn’t have a single battle squad.

His troops were small.

His silver level subordinates were not reliable, none of them could take charge and share the burden with him.

“Hun Tong emphasized commerce development too much.”

“The scale of his troops is like this because long term, the military is an immense expenditure.”

“Establishing a battle squad is also very costly.”

“He didn’t spend money hiring formidable silver levels, the few under his command were enough during peacetime.”

“Because he wanted to attract pirates to rinse their money at Two Eyes Island, he didn’t increase his military and troops, at least not enough to make the pirates feel threatened.”

Cang Xu was constantly analyzing.

Hun Tong’s weak points lie with his troops and his backbone.

By attacking these weak points, perhaps the situation could be redeemed.

A large quantity of ghosts circled around Cang Xu, increasing his ice-cold terror.

Ya Ma retreated!

To her, it seemed that Cang Xu was still a silver level.

“No wonder during the last fight, he only used fire path magic and magic scrolls.”

“It seems he never used his true skills!”

“Abominable.”

“He is actually a silver level necromancer!”

“Does he have a connection with the that necromancer who died here on Two Eyes Island?”

Ya Ma’s intent to flee was very obvious.

Cang Xu could now freely move.

He gazed towards the ocean, in the direction of the patrol fleet.

One Eye was the fleet’s leader.

If he died, then the patrol fleet would be tremendously crippled.

“Too far.”

“If I fly towards them, I will be shot down by the flying magic ship.”

“It would be better to…”

Cang Xu turned to look elsewhere.

The dragonman youngster, Zong Ge, Chi Lai, as well as the pharmacist and the auxiliary city guard commander were rushing over towards him in group.

The idea obviously moved Cang Xu.

“That silver level pharmacist has low military power, weakened by his prior fight with the fishman magician.”

“With necromancy, it is likely I can kill him.”

“There is also the auxiliary city guard commander, he is only an iron level fighter, and by killing him, the city guard will have their head removed.”

“The commander and Zong Ge is one of my people. When I attack the pharmacist and auxiliary commander, they will feign their attacks and won’t be genuine threats to me.”

“The real trouble is Chi Lai.”

“That person has just been recruited, and doesn’t know who I am. He is also a Justice Church believer and will treat me ruthlessly.”

“However, he doesn’t have equipment, and has fired the gold cannon, he isn’t at peak condition.”

The more Cang Xu thought, the greater his killing intent rose.

“He’s actually a necromancer!” The pharmacist was shocked.

“Was he that other necromancer’s partner?” The auxiliary commander was utterly bewildered.

The two didn’t know they had become Cang Xu’s target yet.

They were following behind the dragonman youngster and Zong Ge, and although they were surprised by Cang Xu’s identity being revealed, they still felt safe.

A moment later, they saw Cang Xu’s ghost army in the distance headed right towards them.

“He’s charging over!”

“Don’t worry, with Commander Long Fu here, that necromancer is coming to throw his life away!”

The auxiliary commander and the pharmacist shouted loudly, doing their best to stabilize the city guard’s morale.

The dragonman youngster glanced at them, then looked at Zong Ge.

Zong Ge furled his brows, feeling quite annoyed.

Chi Lai fumed with rage and rolled up his sleeves for battle, “Necromancer, wait until righteous punishment smites you disciple of evil!”

On the Golden Flash’s deck.

The old fishman elder and Hun Tong were fighting fiercely.

The old clan elder was bursting with signs of death, vigorously attacking while defending less, it was epic in scope.

Hun Tong’s figure was frequently dodging, with his extraordinary nimbleness, he moved around the old fishman elder and got several sneaky jabs in.

The old clan elder was gasping for breath.

He braved death to attack the enemy flagship, he wanted to damage it, but Hun Tong’s concentrated offensive forced him into defensive and counterattack tactics.

Hun Tong was also tired.

He was good at ambushes, and had strong offense, but likewise, he had weak defense.

He had to attack with everything he had to restrict the old fishman elder’s assault to protect his flagship as best he could.

Despite that, the fight between them had resulted in much of the deck being wrecked.

Hun Tong was incessantly distressed and attacked all the more violently.

He surged with an intensive offensive while the fishman defended himself as much as he could to stall for time and give his clan as much time as possible to retreat.

The old fishman elder was in grave danger, because if he as a little careless, any blow from Hun Tong would critically injury him.

Both used their full strength.

Therefore, not long into the fight, both of their battle qi reserves had severely declined, along with their stamina and energy.

Suddenly, Hun Tong jumped, then pounced from the old fishman elder’s left.

The old fishman elder was just about to turn around to face Hun Tong when he heard a gale whistling from the back of his head.

The clan elder growled, gold battle qi exploded, and during that perilous moment, it congealed into a specially made helmet to cover the back of his head.

Ding.

Hun Tong’s alchemy clone struck the battle qi helmet, blowing it to bits.

But its attack was also offset.

The fishman elder used this opportunity to counterattack, striking Hun Tong’s clone back.

But a moment later, the real Hun Tong instantly stooped down to a meter in height, then drilled towards the clan elder’s lower back.

The gold level dagger stabbed the clan elder’s kidney.

The clan elder felt his body go cold, cursing to himself, he wanted to turn around, but it was too late.

Just as his heart sank into the abyss, clenching his teeth for the severe wound, Hun Tong’s main body unexpectedly turned to the side, pulled back himself, and rushed backwards, putting distance between him and the clan elder.

“Huh?” The clan elder stared, completely bewildered.

What just happened?

He found it hard to believe.

His life was in his old enemy’s hand, yet his enemy let a golden opportunity to cripple him slip by and instead decided to pull back?

“Are my eyes deceiving me?” The clan elder was somewhat skeptical of his eyes.

But a more magical scene happened a moment later.

After Hun Tong pulled back, he stood in place, and when he opened his eyes, they were red, and he said to the clan elder, “Truce! I can help you retake your home!”

The clan elder was completely dumbstruck, seriously suspecting whether this was a auditory hallucinations.

But it wasn’t just Hun Tong’s main body, his alchemy clone stopped attacking too.

“You can kill me, if you attack now, I won’t resist.” Hun Tong sincerely declared.

After he said that, he tossed his gold dagger to the deck.

The clan elder blinked repeatedly, he was about to attack, but he restrained himself, doubtful of whether this was a human machination.

Hun Tong continued, “But if you kill me, I won’t be able to help you in the best way possible.”

“The biggest threat is my flagship, the Golden Flash!”

“The second biggest threat is me, as well as the gold level Song Shou and Yan Ding.”

“Below that are all the silver levels.”

“If you kill me, you’ll be unable to seize this ship, and will be counterattacked by Song Shou and Yan Ding.”

“Even if you can beat back those gold levels, expel the numerous silvers, and annihilate the city guard, patrol fleet, and other forces, how many clansmen will you have left in the end?”

The clan elder stroked his forehead, “Hold on, you are…”

“Could this be the Devil Gold Coins?”

Hun Tong stared blankly, “I see, so it is the Devil Gold Coins.”

“Such a wonderful trick!”

He stuck out his thumb in sincere admiration.

Seeing his opponent exclaiming in admiration, the clan elder made a weird face, both pleasant surprise and a trace of terror.

The Devil Gold Coins’ power was astonishing, it could actually change his old enemy so thoroughly!

This was the power of the gods.

The clan elder also knew about the secret Devil Gold Coins.

Beforehand, the naga priestess and he communicated.

Moreover, the Devil Gold Coins the Vinegar Jar Pirates came from the Blue Green fishman clan, both groups had an inseparably close relationship.

“How many Devil Gold Coins do you have on you? No forget about it, that isn’t important.” The clan elder shook his head, “How can you help us?”

Hun Tong replied, “I can feel that although the power altering my will is formidable, it is quickly waning.”

“Therefore, we must make every second count!”

“First I will use the Golden Flash to deal with the gold level Song Shou and Yan Ding, then I will massacre my subordinates as best as possible, along with the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps and every merchant alliance person large and small to clear all obstacles for you.”

“Then I will give you command of the Golden Flash.”

“Finally, I will kill myself. You will use my corpse to crush the human’s morale.”
