Chapter 176: Night Thief

   In the room, Cang Xu fell to his knees on the ground, breathing heavily, and his eyes were dizzy.

 The ghost used for investigation maintains a close spiritual connection with him. When the ghost is destroyed, it will also affect Cang Xu, causing his spirit to suffer backlash.

 After checking the alchemy circle in the house, there was nothing wrong with it. Cang Xu immediately drank the potion and meditated on the spot.

 After a while, he opened his eyes. His dizziness was slightly better, but a dull pain filled his whole body.

 “My body has been transformed by necromancy, and I am already a half-dead, half-alive person.”

“This pain is not physical, but spiritual.”

“It seems that this time, the ghost lost too much all at once, and my soul was also damaged.”

Cangxu sighed and found the reason.

“We can’t stay here for too long.” Cang Xu decided to return to the Deep Sea Monster Fish first and then deal with the injuries to his soul.

He began to clean up the alchemy array in the house. The array diagram of this array came from the tower spirit's database. After setting it up, the mage cast spells in the array, which can effectively contain the fluctuations in mana.

Without this layer of magic circle, Cang Xu would definitely be discovered by the city guards when he cast necromancy spells.

  A very large city like the Spitfire City has wizard towers, facilities for detecting magic or constant spells, and even individual regional magic nets.

Under the shroud of the magic net, if a mage wants to cast spells, he must seek the corresponding permissions from the magic net.

The City of Fire is not a magical city, and it has not built a regional magic network.

 Packed up the magic circle and destroyed all the traces of the arrangement. Before leaving, Cang Xu carefully checked it several times to make sure that no obvious clues were left, and then opened the door with a normal expression.

  It was already evening, and he blended into the crowd of people on the street and was inconspicuous.

 Not long after, he and the other members of the Justice Pirates reunited smoothly.

 After a simple exchange, Zi Di said to Cang Xu with a hint of impatience, "I need your help."

“All the materials have been successfully purchased, except for the last item, the red and blue crystal cluster.”

“The giant caravan of the Sahuang clan snapped up all the red and blue crystal clusters in the city.”

 “I came to see you, but the negotiation failed.”

“Later, I got some information. It turned out that the caravan of the Shahuang clan came from afar. The trader was just a cover. The real plan was to escort their young clan member Chang Shaji to the Spitfire City to marry the giant clan here.”

This information is not difficult to find out.

Although the Sahuang caravan tried its best to conceal it, when they arrived at the Spitfire City, they began to actively publicize the news.

 In fact, even if they don't publicize it, the citizens of the Spitfire City have speculations about these giants coming from afar.

 The proposal of marriage was initiated by Ai You, the lord of Spitfire City.

 The targets are not just the Sahuang family.

Zidi continued: "The partner of Shaji's marriage is Zhuya from the Spitfire City. The latter is an alchemist master taught by Ai You himself. Like Shaji, they are both at the level of the Holy Realm."

“In order for the marriage to be successful, the Sahuang clan brought a large amount of rare resources and treasures to serve as bargaining chips for the marriage.”

“I need to get information about the caravan station and try to steal the red and blue crystal cluster tonight.”

 Zidi’s proposal is very bold.

Cangxu endured the pain deep in his soul, thought about it carefully, and found that Zidi's idea was very wise.

The main purpose of the sand and yellow clan's caravan is to establish a marriage alliance. If they want to trade red and blue water clusters, they will not rush to buy them, but will negotiate with the Fire City.

 The City of Fire is one of the major producers of red and blue crystal clusters. A long-term trade would be more beneficial to both parties.

 Hand in, [app ] is really good, it’s worth installing, and it’s even supported by Android and Apple phones!

Since the Shahuang Caravan did not do this, but spent more than 30% higher than the market price to snap up all the red and blue crystal clusters, it shows that they are in urgent need of this resource.

 It is probably related to this marriage.

 Since there is an urgent need, these crystal clusters may be consumed on the spot.

 So, if the Justice Pirates want to get these things, they must race against time.

 At present, among the entire Justice Pirates, except for the young captain with the blood core, no one is better at investigation than Aoi.

Cang Xu looked solemn and nodded to Zidi: "My ghost was destroyed in the volcano."

“After paying such a price, we also discovered a hidden space.”

 “That’s the foundry of mugwort.”

“I saw this legendary giant, and I also saw the giant from the sanctuary building Ya.”

“Let’s not mention these things for now, I have to rush back to the Deep Sea Monster Fish first.”

Zidi nodded: "Let's go back together, I also need to bring out a group of people to help me."

The supplies purchased by Zidi are currently placed in several temporarily rented warehouses. Because there are a lot of supplies, in order to avoid attracting attention, Zidi has planned to have the members of the Justice Pirates take some away one after another and return to

In "Deep Sea Monster Fish".

 Breaking it into parts in this way makes it very low-key and not so eye-catching.

After exchanging a few words with the others, Zidi and Cangxu left the Spitfire City, sneaked all the way to the beach, and swam back to the Deep Sea Monster Fish.

 Zidi contacted other members, while Cangxu stepped into a special alchemy circle, consumed soul crystals, and healed his own soul.

 This alchemy circle was originally set up by him, and many members benefited from it.

 Cang Xu’s soul injuries have been treated to a great extent.

 “But it’s not thorough enough.”

 After a while, the door of a dark cabin was opened by Cang Xu.

Cang Xu walked in silently.

 This is a cabin dedicated to holding prisoners.

 The prisoners were all asleep. They were placed next to each other like sticks on the shelves. On the lower floors of the shelves, there was another person on each person.

 The prisoners slept soundly. Not only were they under spells, but they were also given potions. This was a double insurance.

 Looking quickly at these people, a cold look flashed in Cang Xu's eyes.

 He closed the cabin door, and the cabin immediately became dark.

Accompanied by his chanting, a gray-white light lit up in the darkness.

 The chanting ended quickly and the undead spell was cast successfully.

Cang Xu stretched out his hand to grab hold of it, and a sleeping prisoner's body suddenly trembled slightly, and a humanoid soul flew out of his body.

The humanoid soul was held in Cang Xu's hand. As the undead spell took effect, the humanoid soul let out a shrill scream and the entire body began to twist rapidly.

 After more than ten seconds, the humanoid soul was twisted into a pile of waste, turned into a pile of light spots, and quickly dissipated.

 The essence part turned into a warm current, poured in from Cang Xu's palm, and was transported to the depths of his soul, where it quickly blended.

"Ah..." Cang Xu couldn't help but raise his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and let out a satisfied sigh.

 The injuries to the soul naturally need to be treated with the soul.

 Not all souls have such an outstanding effect on Cangxu's injuries.

 Souls must also match each other.

 Matching souls, coupled with appropriate necromancy spells, are equivalent to special medicines for Cangxu's condition. On the other hand, soul crystals have a wide range of applications and are not specific. If the real soul is injured, it can only be used as an auxiliary treatment method.

 Without this kind of necromancy, Cang Xu could only wait for his soul to heal itself after using the soul crystal.

 Now using this spell has greatly saved time.

 After consuming three fresh souls in a row, Cang Xu restored his soul state to its peak state.

 He then drank another potion, allowing his mana to be fully restored quickly.

However, during the day, when he was casting spells and controlling ghosts, he drank a lot of potions. The potions he drank now have very little effect and are extremely cost-effective.

 The situation was so tense that Cang Xu couldn't care less.

 With the help of the newly generated mana, Cangxu continuously casts necromancy spells to create ghosts.

 This spell has a high probability of failure.

Cangxu sacrificed a dozen prisoners, and then three new ghosts were born.

 After simply disposing of the dead bodies, Cang Xu left the cabin and found that Zidi had left the Deep Sea Monster Fish with a group of members.

 Zidi’s time is even tighter.

She needs these people to disperse and blend into the fire-breathing city.

If the gates of the Spitfire City are closed at night, it will be more difficult to get in and out.

 Fortunately, every evening, the flow of people at each city gate is very large. Many citizens of the Spitfire City need to go to other ports on the Spitfire Island for work and livelihood, but they still live in the Spitfire City.

When Cang Xu rushed to the city gate, the flow of people was already extremely sparse and the city gate was about to close.

 After he came in smoothly, he reunited with Zidi and others.

 Late at night, the young man, Zidi, Cangxu, Sandao and others hid in a hotel room closest to the caravan station.

 Under the cover of the alchemy circle, Cang Xu controlled the ghost to enter the caravan station.

 The tight defenses inside the volcano cannot prevent the ghosts from spying, and it is even easier for these ghosts to detect the caravan station.

 They dispersed at first, and then quickly found the location of the cache.

 In each large or small metal box, there are various rare resources collected.

 The tent where the boxes are stored is guarded both inside and outside. They are tightly guarded and very vigilant. It shows the excellent military qualities of the Sand Yellow Giant clan.

  But it was of no use.

The three ghosts were weak, but they were arrogant, coming and going at will under the eyes of these guards.

The guards were unaware.

It’s not that these people don’t have the means to detect natural ghosts. It’s that they lack measures to deal with the ghosts created by necromancy.

Of course, as time goes by, more and more people are exposed to necromancy and understand that there will definitely be ways to deal with it in the future.

 Most of the boxes can be penetrated directly by ghosts and explore the contents inside.

 In the end, only a few storage boxes were left, all of which were at least silver-grade in quality, and many shone with the brilliance of magic, making them difficult for ghosts to penetrate.

 Forced penetration will have a great impact on the ghost and cause irreparable damage.

 Especially since these three ghosts are new and quite fragile.

"There are more than a dozen boxes, and we can't tell which one it is." Cang Xu frowned, "Even if I abandon these three ghosts and conduct a sacrificial investigation, I'm afraid I won't be able to find two."

"I have a way." Zidi smiled at this moment and patted the gargoyle puppet beside her, "Next, it's time for my little baby to appear."
