Chapter 693: Snow Bird Harbor Battle – Another Explosion
“It’s the Vegetable Pirates!”
“Cong Mang, and his Hoodlum battle squad under his command!!”
When Snow Bird Harbor City Lord, Tan Mo, and the others saw the pirates appearing, their hearts jolted greatly.
Why were there really pirates?!
Obviously before their operation, they had specifically used the magician tower and the patrol fleet to search the surrounding sea waters and found no traces of enemies, it was very safe.
“What method did they use? They actually had such a powerful camouflage ability?”
“This is completely inconsistent with the intelligence.”
“Wait a minute, at this time, Cong Mang is serving subordinate to Da Han as his vanguard official. The Vegetable Pirates appearing here, don’t tell me…Da Han is right behind him?”
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord and Tan Mo had a formidable information advantage, and in a split second their minds churned, with each thought scaring them.
If Da Han really was targeting Snow Bird Harbor, then they couldn’t sojourn here!
The saint level and the gold level were two completely different concepts.
“If the magician tower was still here coordinating with all of the basic defensive magic formations found throughout Snow Bird Harbor, then we could last for some time…”
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord looked at the magician tower ruins again, the corner of his mouth twitching.
Tan Mo led his troops out of the magic battle squad encirclement while his imagination ran wild, “Could it be the one who destroyed the magician tower was not from the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps?”
He was a bit dazed.
Hun Tong was camouflaged and acted very efficiently when he bombed the magician tower, he left no evidence behind that pointed towards the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps.
Tan Mo even suspected Snow Bird Harbor City Lord!
The two of them really didn’t trust each other, and if it weren’t for their magic contract, they would never have been able to work together.
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord also thought, “What a coincidence, everything is too much of a coincidence!”
Right as their performance reached a crucial moment, and after the magician tower’s defenses had been shut down, pirate experts were mounting a raid? Did they take advantage of that to blow up the magician tower?
Were the Vegetable Pirates just lucky?
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was not naïve.
He was the leader of one of Ice Sculpture Kingdom’s eight harbors, he had mixed in with the kingdom’s political circles for many years and was also a member of the Imperial Secret Spy Agency.
Therefore, Snow Bird Harbor City Lord and Tan Mo simultaneously felt the strong stench of a plot.
The only thing they differed on was the suspected target.
The Vegetable Pirates’ appearance was undoubtedly a heavy blow.
Tan Mo became more cautious.
While Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was entangled with the alchemy puppet, he was giving orders to the city guard and the magic battle squads to move their focus to dealing with the Vegetable Pirates, indirectly letting Tan Mo and the others get away.
The pressure on Tan Mo and his navies consequently dropped and they were more easily able to escape the encirclement.
Cong Mang’s pirates rushed out of the pirate group, and several hundred people united in action as a grand black expanse charged into the city palace.
“Scramble quickly, that place must have the most money.”
“Nice trick, Commander. You destroyed Snow Bird Harbor’s magician tower!”
“Hahaha, our competitors have expended themselves ahead of us, we emerged at the right time.”
The Vegetable Pirates were very excited and had exuberant morale.
As they ran past Tan Mo and his people, some pirates bombastically thanked them.
The navies were green with anger!
To them this was undoubtedly a huge embarrassment.
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord saw the Vegetable Pirates were shockingly going to attack his city palace, what kind of outrage was this?
He promptly abandoned trading blows with the alchemy puppet and rushed back to the city palace.
“Little ones, you must rob well for me!” When Cong Mang saw this, he lifted his gold level long rod and stopped walking, turning back to welcome Snow Bird Harbor City Lord.
The fight between the two immediately turned intense.
“Fuck off!” Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was incredibly anxious, displaying his full strength and using all kinds of battle skills and spells in turn.
Cong Mang mainly defended himself and was pushed into a disadvantageous position. But on the contrary, he wasn’t worried and held the initiative.
As long as he stalled Snow Bird Harbor City Lord, the pirates could steal an exceedingly considerable amount of wealth.
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord could abandon the alchemy puppet, but he was unable to free himself from Cong Mang. He resisted his anger, calmed himself, and sneered at Cong Mang, “Do you believe I don’t have arrangements in the city palace?”
Cong Mang burst into laughter, “Of course we know, but we know that it holds the most amount of money in Snow Bird Harbor!”
“Sacrificing some people for wealth is very normal.”
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord gnashed his teeth, “You damn pirates!!”
Since he couldn’t break away, he decided to attack madly with rage.
Far off, Hun Tong was amazed as he watched Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was in an abyss of suffering with Cong Mang.
He didn’t think that actual pirates would appear!
“All kinds of signs indicate that this is obviously Long Fu’s plan.”
“In that case, what is the relationship with the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps and the Vegetable Pirates?”
“Or perhaps the Vegetable Pirates are a pawn of that god too?”
Hun Tong slyly observed the dragonman youngster, increasingly feeling the latter was a profound mystery.
The reality was that after the dragonman youngster and Zi Di talked, he learned of the Vegetable Pirates’ connection with the Wisteria Merchant Alliance and that Elder Jiu Jin had invited Cong Mang over to the Ice Sculpture Capital to secretly open the Wisteria Cache.
Therefore, he used Elder Jiu Jin’s appearance to contact the Vegetable Pirates. The then publicly used a divine spell to win their trust and arrange for the Vegetable Pirates to attack Snow Bird Harbor.
“Pirates are always an adventurous lot.”
“Cong Mang is a pirate leader, and the fact that he went to the Ice Sculpture Kingdom, a principal enemy of his, upon invitation, to conspire for the Wisteria Cache proves his extremely adventurous spirit.”
The dragonman youngster judged Cong Mang’s personality, allowing him to think of this plan.
After implementing it, sure enough it worked.
Looking at it currently, it seemed to have a great result.
The dragonman youngster imperceivably glanced at Hun Tong.
He clearly understood Hun Tong’s mood and thinking.
Despite having methods that could plant false memories into Hun Tong that could turn him into a fanatic for him like Xiao Wang Zi and the others, the young man believed that doing this was instead ineffective.
Hun Tong’s status, interpersonal relationships, and abilities were valuable.
Hun Tong’s current situation made the dragonman youngster resolve to attempt to deepen his subjugation of him.
“Charge!”
“This is mine, this is also mine.”
“Wa ha ha, so many gold coins, lots of gold coins.”
The pirates were extremely excited.
Snow Bird Harbor City Lord’s look gradually shifted.
He noticed that the city palace’s defenses were minuscule, and that the person he assigned to stand watch over it, Mei Lan Du, vanished without a trace. None of the city palace’s traps had triggered either.
“Damn it!” Snow Bird Harbor City Lord wanted to charge in, but Cong Mang tenaciously stopped him.
The big guy, Da Dou, as well as Hong Zhu had already left the city palace and were watching from some calm corner.
Hong Zhu’s face was blushed red with excitement as she hugged a large amount of treasure.
The big guy held even more valuables.
Da Dou’s storage pouch had been packed full, and he was also holding a prisoner. It was Snow Bird Harbor City Lord’s palace supervisor Mei Lan Du.
“It’s almost time.” Da Dou took out an alchemy device.
He pressed down on the device’s button.
Boom.
A moment later, the city palace exploded!
Hun Tong, Snow Bird Harbor City Lord, Tan Mo, as well as Cong Mang: ??!!
Only the dragonman youngster’s gaze was serene: the Vegetable Pirates deserved to die!
The dragonman youngster would not stand by and watch as pirates plundered the populace of Snow Bird Harbor after looting the city palace.
Besides, without his crew, Cong Mang’s strength would decrease, and then, wouldn’t it be easier to control him?
