Su Mu bent down and checked the corpse on the ground. When his mental power probed into the corpse, his eyes moved slightly.
The souls of these dead were devoured by something!
Under normal circumstances, the soul of a person who dies will slowly dissipate. These people had just died and their bodies were still warm. Theoretically, it was impossible for their souls to dissipate so quickly.
But now only empty shells remained, suggesting that the creature that attacked them had devoured its soul.
Psychic nightmare creature?
Su Mu's mouth curled up slightly. Isn't this walking into trouble?
"Captain, have you found anything?" Lin Nanxing asked solemnly.
Su Mu turned around and slowly glanced at the solemn-looking crowd. He saw tension, fear and uneasiness on their faces.
We are all silver-level nightmare apostles. Even if our strengths vary, the gap between them will not be too big. But our teammates died right under our noses without anyone noticing. Doesn't that mean that we could be the next one?
The unknown is always the most frightening.
"Only gold-level people can kill twelve silver-level transcendents silently in a short period of time. In Coastal City, there are currently only two gold-level people. One is Yuchi Hong who is guarding Coastal City, and the other is the gold nightmare who is attacking Coastal City."
Su Mu's words made everyone's faces change slightly, and he continued, "Before I came, the royal family gave me detailed information about Yuchi Hong. Yuchi Hong is a golden transcendent, and his golden law is called [Naga]. His main ability is to control water. This person can exert a combat power far beyond that on land in the sea, which is why the royal family sent him here."
Someone in the crowd said thoughtfully: "Since Lord Yuchi Hong is a water element, then the murderer must not be him. The deaths of these twelve people are different, which does not match Lord Yuchi Hong's attack type. It must be the Golden Nightmare hiding in the dark!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly became nervous. Anyone would feel terrified at the thought that there might be a golden nightmare hiding next to them.
“Although Yuchi Hong is not the murderer, he is involved in this matter. Yuchi Hong lied that he was going to deal with the golden nightmare and never showed up. During the day, I went to the top of the high wall but did not see Yuchi Hong.
He kept saying that he was busy keeping an eye on the Golden Nightmare, but now, the Golden Nightmare has sneaked into the city and even started a killing spree. I suspect that the nightmare apostles who died during the day were also killed by the Golden Nightmare, and only it has such strength. ”
Su Mu's words, with the help of [Endless Demonic Sound], successfully made everyone point their spearheads at Yuchi Hong.
"The captain is right! There is definitely something wrong with Yuchi Hong. I even suspect that he is colluding with the Golden Nightmare and is deliberately letting it kill people!"
"Fuck! This is a rape!"
"Captain, let's go find Yuchi Hong and confront him face to face!"
Seeing that people's hearts were available, Su Mu smiled slightly: "Follow me."
He took the lead and led a group of nightmare apostles to the camp where Yuchi Hong was.
At the camp, the soldiers on guard were frightened when they saw the large crowd of people. They picked up their weapons and pointed them at the crowd.
"Stop! Who are you?" a soldier pointed a gun at Su Mu and shouted.
Lin Nanxing was furious and kicked him to the ground.
"How dare you! Open your dog eyes and look. This is the Marquis who was personally appointed by His Majesty the Red King. How dare you point a gun at the Marquis? Are you planning a rebellion?"
In an era when nobility was king, the value of a marquisate was self-evident.
The faces of the soldiers changed drastically. They couldn't hold the guns steadily, and didn't know whether to hold them up or put them down.
"Get out of here! Call Yuchi Hong out, our Lord Marquis wants to see him!" Lin Nanxing put his hands on his hips and cursed at the soldiers.
Su Mu glanced sideways. He didn't expect Lin Nanxing to have such a talent.
The soldiers naturally had no say in the matter and could only go back and report.
Not long after, the sergeant who had received Su Mu and the others came trotting over and looked at the aggressive Nightmare Apostles with an embarrassed expression.
"Master Sumu, what are you doing......"
"You are not worthy of knowing. Call Yuchi Hong." Su Mu said lightly.
The calm words inspired the Nightmare Apostles. To be honest, without Su Mu's leadership, they did not have the courage to break into the military camp and question a powerful golden warrior.
The sergeant's face turned cold, and he said coldly: "Master Sumu, I said before that Master Yuchi is busy guarding the Golden Nightmare and can't be spared now..."
"You're talking bullshit!" A nightmare apostle with a beard cursed, "Golden Nightmare has killed dozens of us! My brother was just killed, and Yuchi Hong is guarding him? Guarding his grandma!"
"Asshole!" The sergeant was furious. He drew out the mithril saber from his waist and pointed it at the bearded man. "How dare you insult the nobles? Do you want to die?"
The bearded man sneered: "Yuchi Hong killed my brother, he must have colluded with the Golden Nightmare!"
"If you dare to say another word, I will kill you, believe it or not!" A bright green light emerged from the blade of the sergeant's blade, and he was imposing and obviously a silver transcendent.
"What am I afraid to say? If you have the guts, call Yuchi Hong out to confront me! In my opinion, he is just guilty and doesn't dare to come out at all!"
"Oh? You want to confront this Marquis?"
Suddenly, a cold voice came from deep in the tent, and then a terrifying aura belonging only to the golden strongmen spread out and enveloped the entire place!
The overwhelming pressure made the bearded man's face turn pale in an instant: "I...I..."
He stammered and couldn't utter a word.
In the shadow of the tent, a tall man wearing black armor and holding a bright silver spear walked out slowly. The patterns on the armor were like winding dragons, and the armor plates sparkled with a cold metallic luster in the moonlight.
He is like a towering mountain, heavy and majestic.
When he appeared, thousands of soldiers looked at him with awe and trust.
The soldiers made way for him to pass.
He slowly walked in front of Su Mu and the others. Just standing there, he was intimidating without even showing any anger. The terrifying sense of oppression made the nightmare apostles feel cold in their hearts.
The person who came was none other than the golden strong man——Yuchi Hong!
Yuchi Hong glanced coldly at the bearded man. The originally arrogant man lowered his head in fear and did not dare to look him in the eye.
Only after facing the gold powerhouse directly can one clearly feel the huge gap like a chasm, which is simply not a gap that the silver can overcome.
The golden strong man... is so terrifying!
"Are you Yuchi Hong?" A calm voice broke the silent atmosphere.
