Summoning Total War

Chapter 10 Assassination!

Murphy woke up this morning in a good mood, because last night he blatantly rubbed the high priest's full and soft peaks.

Although I paid a little price for this, it was also worth it.

This is much better than secretly in the past. Let him remember for a long time.

However, this good mood did not last long. After arriving at the port with the general guard, a bad news suddenly made his face gloomy.

………………

------------------------------

Immediately after Murphy reached the port, the soldiers who stayed behind last night brought a very bad news to Murphy.

Three citizens of Athens were brutally murdered last night

Murphy was shocked when he heard the news, and walked quickly towards the scene of the incident.

………………

The deceased was a family of three fishermen in the town of Athens. When they died, the fishing boat was docked near a ferry port about 300 meters from the port. There are many fishermen like this in the city of Athens. Although they also have houses in the city, they usually put their homes on fishing boats for convenience and return to the shore every three to five days. By the way, we also sell the caught fish for other daily necessities.

When Murphy arrived, many people had gathered around him.

The people looked panicked and talked a lot, but when they saw Murphy arrived, they immediately retreated to the left and right to let out a passage.

The deceased was a family of three, husband, wife and children.

After being discovered, their bodies were transported to the shore.

"When did it show up?" Murphy walked to the corpse, raised his hand and asked the soldier beside the linen.

"Your Excellency, it was this morning. The other fishermen found blood on their boats, and they knew it." The soldier replied.

Although he didn't know how to do an autopsy, as a commander-in-chief who had experienced the war in the Cold Weapon Age, Murphy made gods and judged the cause of these deaths.

The first to die were two adult men.

There was a flat wound on their neck, the wound was deep, almost running through the entire throat.

Obviously, they were attacked and killed by the enemy in their sleep. The creatures that attacked them were very sensitive, and they could kill them after sneaking onto the ship without a trace. The fishing boat is not big, and the movement of slightly larger creatures climbing on the fishing boat may wake them up. In other words, the enemy who attacked them should be small, or they might have been spotted as soon as they climbed onto the fishing boat.

After these small creatures climbed onto the fishing boat, they killed two adult men.

At this time, the only woman on board was also awakened.

She just woke up from her sleep, she should have not waited for her sanity to recover, so she stabbed her with a sharp weapon

Out of instinct, she dodged.

That's why the female corpse's wound was slightly below the neck.

The woman who was stabbed did not die immediately. She just wanted to scream, but the creatures that had killed her husband and children rushed to cover her mouth. The woman began to struggle. She opened her mouth and bit on the hand covering her mouth. At this time, another sharp qi cut her throat.

The female corpse's left ear was bitten off, and there were uneven teeth marks on it.

According to Murphy's estimation, the attacking creature was bitten off by anger.

The only traces of struggle on the three corpses were the female corpses, so Murphy inferred the general situation at the time based on some details.

"It didn't rain last night, and some traces should not have been washed away." After the general inference was made, Murphy signaled the people to feel relieved for the time being. Ignoring the slaps of the officials behind him, he signaled the soldiers to follow. The fishing boat moored on the shore walked away.

Officials assisting in maintaining the security of the port immediately followed quickly, and several newly promoted aboriginal officials also followed.

The ship was covered with blood.

There are strange **** footprints on the ground.

Obviously, those creatures didn't even think about erasing the traces after killing.

The footprints were small, which just confirmed the reason Murphy inferred that they were small. These creatures should be no more than 1.5 meters tall, with only three toes. It's not like a race active on the 6th floor.

After walking around the fishing boat, Murphy showed some traces in the stern position.

The dark green traces seemed to be left on some kind of creature.

He looked around carefully, then touched the dark green thing with his finger and put it under his nose and smelled it.

"Fish smell" Murphy frowned and said solemnly.

Looking around at the officials around him, Murphy set his sights on the aboriginals and asked: "Are there other primitive races living on the Nedoria River?"

Several aboriginal officials shook their heads upon hearing this.

At this moment, an old aborigine standing outside suddenly said, "Could it be a murloc?"

This sentence seems to remind those aboriginal officials.

Several of them glanced at each other and said in unison: "Murloc Nightcrawler?"

Murloc Nightcrawler?

Murphy was startled when he heard the name, her brows couldn't help but tightened, and he said solemnly: "What is that? Hurry up and make it clear."

Under Murphy's questioning, several aborigines told the whole story in one word.

………………

When the murlocs appeared, it is impossible to verify.

Humans first saw these species in coastal areas. They were small, with an average height of only about 1.2 meters. These creatures called murlocs have the head of a fish but the limbs of intelligent creatures. They have some scales on their bodies, which are natural armor. These creatures are not strong, but their movements are very quick, and they are cruel and very aggressive.

Murlocs are mainly active in coastal areas, with tribes as ethnic groups. A Murloc tribe has a population of about 300 to 600. The collar is the strongest murloc. Some large murloc tribes may have shamans who can use elemental power.

Because of living by the sea, the human beings centered on the southern plains have never had any conflict with the murlocs.

This situation continued until about ten years ago.

Due to the blockade of the 6th place by many powerful creatures, the human city-state decided to set up a fleet to find new land by sea and explore the human races living in other places in the 6th place. The fleet lost news after being dispatched for a week. After creating gods for a while, some human survivors fled back. From their mouths, the human city-state learned for the first time that at the end of the Nedoria River, near the location where it flows to the sea, a very large group of murlocs had migrated there. These murlocs are different from other murlocs that humans have ever seen. They come from the sea, their bodies are stronger and taller, and their love is more brutal and greedy.

They have a very distinctive feature, that is, there is a dark scale on the back.

They are called-Darkscale Murloc

A large murloc tribe that migrated to the coast of the Nedoria River more than ten years ago to survive.

From the mouths of the survivors, the human city state learned that these distinctive Darkscale Murlocs have a very elite force.

They are quick to move, good at lurking and assassinating, and can blend in with the sea in the dark. These murlocs are good at using short spears and sharp blades, and can rush and jump very long distances.

They are called-Murloc Nightcrawler

The road that humans explored by sea is ended, and conflicts with murlocs on the coastal borders also occur.

But fortunately, although murloc creatures have a strong desire for brutal attacks, they cannot leave the water for too long to create gods. Therefore, although murloc tribes have occasionally attacked the towns along the river, they have not attacked 6 areas on the ground. At present, anthropologists are studying these dark scale murlocs who have migrated nearby. After a period of understanding of the gods, these anthropologists have come up with an amazing hypothesis.

That is, murlocs are probably the vassals of some intelligent creature in the sea

………………

------------------------------------

"Darkscale murloc?" Murphy looked at the aboriginal people in front of him, frowned and said solemnly: "It's over 500 kilometers away from the sea."

"Even if those Darkscale Murlocs are going to attack, they are also attacking the human town ahead."

"How could they travel to Athens to attack humans over a distance of 500 kilometers?"

Murphy's words silenced the indigenous people.

To be honest, they are also a little puzzled. Darkscale murlocs have always attacked humans, and this is also the area closest to the sea at the extreme edge of the southern plain. The city of Athens is already at the forefront of the southern plain. On the top, you have already entered the inner 6 area of ​​the Big 6.

At a distance of five hundred kilometers, this has greatly exceeded the scope of the Darkscale Murloc tribe's activities.

However, if it wasn't the Darkscale Murloc, what kind of creature would it be?

The citizens of the city of Athens are all trained in military affairs. Even a fisherman can be regarded as half a soldier when taken out. Even if ordinary murlocs migrate, it is impossible to kill two adult men who have received military training so easily! Besides, there is no such sharp weapon in ordinary murlocs. The only thing that can be justified is to assassinate them. It is the more powerful dark scale murloc, UU reading www.uukanshu.com and even those so-called elite murlocs

After frowning and thinking for a long time, Murphy, who had nothing to gain, could only pat his head and said to the herald next to him: "Give all the fishermen with weapons, so that they don’t stay out at night recently, and return after nightfall. The port rests."

"Yes" the messenger answered.

At this time, the sun has risen.

The sun was scattered all around, and suddenly Murphy saw a golden light reflected from a certain position on the fishing boat shining into his eyes.

He walked quickly, and a strange thing came out from under the wooden partition.

That is a scale.

Golden scales.

The shape is a bit like a carp in the previous life, but it is bigger.

There was a trace of blood on the scales, but I didn't know what creature it originally belonged to.
