Chapter 356 Demon Dove Pirate Group
To complement the nighttime slaughter,
Quan Yi transformed into Dark Flame Fire Spirit Body.
The pitch-black Fire Element was almost invisible in the night.
The overall strategy for this battle was consistent with that of Golden Sand Island.
Quan Yi would attack from the outside in, while Huo Wu would strike from the inside out.
Nearly three thousand pirates resided on Demon Dove Island.
Among them, the strongest pirate group leader, Demon Dove, was a Soul Emperor expert above level sixty.
Beneath him were five Soul Kings, thirty Soul Elders, and one hundred and eighty Soul Masters at levels twenty and thirty.
There were over two thousand five hundred pirates composed of ordinary people.
In terms of overall strength, the Demon Dove Pirate Group was much stronger than Golden Sand.
If it were a head-on battle, even Quan Yi and Huo Wu would need to expend a great deal of effort to eliminate them all.
However, who would have thought that two Fire-attribute Soul Masters would possess such 'insidious' concealment abilities and extreme mobility?
On a ship outside the sea area, twenty guards consisting of Soul Greatmasters and ordinary people were diligently searching the surroundings.
At this moment, the Soul Greatmaster pirate with the strongest strength said with dissatisfaction, "Damn it, why do we have to be on guard here even when a banquet is being held?"
The subordinate beside him echoed, "Yeah, I didn't expect such a good day to coincide with our patrol time. It's really disappointing.
I heard there are some women in the merchant group that was captured this time. I wonder if they are pretty."
As he spoke, a lewd expression appeared on his face.
"Hehe, I heard that the merchant group this time has a considerable background. I heard there are also beautiful female Soul Masters inside. I've never tasted what a female Soul Master tastes like in my life."
The subordinate licked his lips, not concealing his greed.
At this moment, the Soul Greatmaster pirate slapped the subordinate on the back of the head in disgust and said, "With your abilities, you want to lay a finger on a female Soul Master? Aren't you afraid she'll slap you away?
Besides, these female Soul Masters have already been divided up by the captain and the officers. People like us can only find female slaves to vent on."
The subordinate who was slapped on the back of the head was an ordinary pirate without Soul Power.
Even after being slapped, he could only smile obsequiously, not daring to show any dissatisfaction.
Ordinary pirate people were no different from slaves in the eyes of these Soul Master pirates.
If he angered the Soul Greatmaster in front of him, with his status, he might be turned into a slave.
This phenomenon was not uncommon on Demon Dove Island. Some pirates who violated orders were often demoted to slaves and subjected to servitude.
At this moment, a grand banquet was being held inside Demon Dove Island.
As for why the banquet was being held?
This was because the Demon Dove Pirate Group had plundered a large merchant ship heading from Han Hai City to the Star Luo Empire this time.
Generally, such large merchant ships would be equipped with sufficient force.
However, at this point in time, the official forces and land Soul Masters had completely retreated, which made the pirate forces more rampant and the land merchant teams more and more declining.
In addition, the powerful strength of the Demon Dove Pirate Group enabled them to successfully intercept this large merchant ship.
This merchant ship carried countless precious treasures and materials. Moreover, the merchant ship itself had a sufficiently large value.
Especially those sea ships manufactured by large chambers of commerce could be said to be armed to the teeth.
The outer layer was covered with thick metal plates, and the decks were even equipped with military-grade large crossbows.
Logically speaking, it would not be easy to take down such a sea ship.
However, unexpectedly, there was an internal traitor within the merchant team.
Moreover, this traitor came from the shipwrights dispatched from the Han Hai Shipyard.
The Han Hai Shipyard was a force with official participation.
At the same time, the Han Hai Shipyard has a long history and is deeply trusted by people.
This trade caravan did not have much doubt about the Han Hai Shipyard either.
However, this ideological deviation led them into this situation.
Inside the brightly lit island, joyous laughter filled the air.
Thousands of pirates gathered together, venting their emotions wantonly in the spacious area.
However, in the center of the area, there was a high stone platform.
Sitting on it was a thin man.
This person was the leader of the Demon Dove Pirate Group.
At this moment, he looked at the banquet below with a smug expression, his heart filled with pride.
Taking down a large merchant ship with almost zero losses was a feat.
It was also thanks to him planting hidden agents in the Han Hai Shipyard long ago that he was able to do it so easily.
If you remember, when Quan Yue and Su Ling'er first arrived in Han Hai City, they encountered internal strife within the Han Hai Shipyard.
At that time, Jiang Jun and his fellow Senior Brothers were exposed for colluding with pirates.
Although this matter was eventually dropped due to the inability to find the mastermind, the spies planted in the Han Hai Shipyard were not limited to them.
This time, they were able to seize the merchant ship so smoothly because other hidden agents lurking in Han Hai City played a role.
With spies in Han Hai City, the Demon Dove Pirate Group could grasp various connections between other trade caravans and the Han Hai Shipyard.
Shipbuilding, ship repair, accompanying shipwrights, etc., many trade caravans could not avoid the Han Hai Shipyard for these tasks.
Therefore, by controlling the Shipyard, they could grasp a lot of information that was not known to the outside world.
At the same time, this was safer than directly infiltrating the trade caravans.
Although there had been some fluctuations before, which slowed down his pace.
However, after patiently waiting, the time for harvest had finally arrived.
He felt a tickle in his heart when he thought of the fiery female Soul Master guard who had been captured.
Seeing that everyone was drunk, he was ready to go to his residence and enjoy himself.
He slowly got up from the high platform, but just then, his consciousness suddenly became a little blurred.
"What's going on? Am I too drunk?"
Just as he was wondering, the scene before him suddenly changed, and his head fell heavily to the ground.
Looking at the crowd still immersed in the banquet, a sense of anger arose in his heart.
"I fell, why don't you have any reaction?
No, that's not right, how could I fall? I didn't drink that much wine?"
The last scene fixed in his mind was too strange, but even if he thought of something, he could no longer do anything.
Because he was already dead.
Behind the fallen leader of the Demon Dove Pirate Group stood a strange black shadow.
However, this black shadow slowly dissipated as the leader of the Demon Dove Pirate Group collapsed.
If you look closely at the forehead of the fallen leader, you can see a small hole penetrating the entire brain.
Behind the leader stood Huo Wu with cold eyes.
She stood on the high platform, slowly watching the pirates below, her heart without any fluctuations.
She slowly opened her mouth and said, "Letting you die in laughter is my last tenderness."
After saying that, Huo Wu flapped her wings, emitting a rich pink light. At the same time, fifteen flame spikes condensed above her head.
The spikes quickly submerged into the Fire Shadow behind her, and then, fifteen pink flashes of light lit up under the high platform.
Nearly fifty figures fell at the same moment.
