Chapter 256256. Chaos in Wanglong Port
Everything is finally calm.
Suna felt happy that she had survived the disaster. No wonder most people thought that sailing on the sea was a great adventure.
"Actually, it's not that bad. Our ship is of very good quality. We use the best quality wood, which is comparable to steel. Ordinary reefs are not as hard as our ship. As long as we don't sink, we can always make it through."
The usually silent dwarf crew member spoke to himself.
"Have you ever encountered such big waves?" Suna asked curiously.
"It's common for people who often drift on the sea to encounter bad weather. The worst time was when our ship sank to the bottom of the water, but fortunately it floated in the end." The dwarf took the linen cloth handed over by his companion and bent down to wipe the deck.
His dream is to have his own ship, even if it is smaller than this one and can carry thirty people.
In the following days, no more accidents occurred. It took a week to return to Wanglong Port.
After getting off the ship, they hired several carts and laborers to start loading and unloading the goods.
The goods from Donggang City are very popular in Wanglong Port. Merchants who come after hearing the news come to Suna to inquire about the prices.
The cargo on the ship was mostly clothes, T-shirts and skirts. As they were just necessities of life, they were easily sold out.
A small amount of porcelain was broken due to the bumpy road. I just sold it to break even, and even suffered a small loss.
Su Na didn't plan to sell the sneakers directly. This was a purchasing quota she had obtained with great difficulty from within the organization, and ordinary businessmen didn't have such channels.
Unusual goods are the most popular items at the auction house, and their prices fluctuate according to market demand.
After a few months, when we entered Wanglong Port again, the situation seemed to have stabilized.
A few months ago, the city was still facing the threat of the undead plague and banditry, but now it seems to have been suppressed.
Suna returned to the auction house and found the manager to ask about what had happened recently.
The steward informed that since the army of Donggang City landed at Wanglong Port, they quickly defeated the rebel army, cleared the activities of the Undead Scourge in the villages and towns, and opened the road to Chenguang City.
"Miss, the situation has improved. Should we still leave?"
"We still have to go! Wanglong Port is not safe. If Chenguang City was lost last year, this city will definitely not be safe now."
"Okay." The elderly manager sighed deeply. She had followed Su Lanfang and her daughter for many years and had come to this city twenty years ago. She was reluctant to leave.
"Before I leave, I will hold one last auction and sell all my properties."
Suna gave herself two months, but it wouldn't take that long. After all, she wasn't a big businessman with many businesses.
It is just a shop and an auction house, both of which use Su Ji as their signboard and are well-known in Wanglonggang.
Since the two shops were in good locations, people soon came to inquire.
Suna offered a fair price, slightly lower than the current market price. After several conversations, the contract was signed quickly.
The auction is expected to start in three days and will be conducted through bidding.
Everyone has one chance to make a bid, and then the one who offers the highest price wins.
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong. The city was pitch black.
The night watchman was patrolling the streets with a kerosene lamp in hand.
Suna went to bed early and could faintly hear noises coming from outside, including the sound of melodious bells coming from afar.
"Miss, something bad has happened." The servant knocked on the door.
"What's going on?" Suna sat up from the bed. She recognized that it was the alarm bell of an enemy attack.
"I don't know! The alarm has rang many times! How about we go out and ask?" The servant was undecided.
Suna fumbled to put on her clothes in the dark and reached out to push open the door.
Outside the house was the auction house's own small courtyard. It was pitch black all around, with the only light coming from the kerosene lamp in the servant's hand.
Soon, all the people from the auction house came out.
Everyone opened the door and came out onto the street.
Because of the kerosene lamps, many people spontaneously gathered around him.
In darkness, only light can bring a sense of security.
"What happened? Can someone tell me?" someone asked.
Most people knew nothing about the situation.
Suddenly, a scream was heard from afar.
It's so jarring in the silence of the night.
"Undead! It's the undead!" someone shouted faintly.
"The undead are not ghosts, so what are you afraid of?" The two-meter-tall female warrior yawned lazily and planned to go back to sleep.
Suna also shook her head and prepared to go back.
"Miss, I think we'd better be careful." The servant holding the oil lamp was over seventy years old. He traveled all over the country when he was young and his experience was not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"What do you mean?" Suna paused.
"The undead are more than just zombies and skeletons. These are just low-level undead. Apart from spreading the plague, they cannot cause greater harm. Ordinary people can deal with them with weapons. However, there are also special types of undead that are very dangerous." The servant spoke very quickly, and everyone could faintly hear shouts of "Run!"
Several agile people were running through the street.
"You're right." Suna made a prompt decision and said to the people at the auction house, "Follow me."
Everyone followed Suna and headed towards the port. At first, they were still talking and laughing, not too nervous. Until more and more people started running around them, the pace was set.
Suna was one of the people who reacted the fastest and went directly to the port to find her ship.
After shouting a few times, the crew immediately brought the boat closer to the shore and dropped the rope ladder.
"Miss, what happened?" The crew members were also very curious.
"I'm not too sure, it seems like there are ghosts." Suna pulled people up one by one.
The boat that could carry fifty people was only half full.
The alarm also sounded in the clock tower near the sea, indicating that the situation was very serious.
Those who had boats chose to run towards the port, and those who didn't have boats chose to leave the city from the other side.
The scene turned chaotic in just a dozen minutes.
Su Ya chose to drive the boat dozens of meters away from the shore and watch from afar.
"Lao Sha, can you tell me what special types of undead are there?"
"Zombies can combine into Stitched Corpses. They are the kind of monsters you'll have nightmares about. They seem to be made of countless pieces of flesh and blood, with arms, legs, and eyes all over their bodies. They are extremely powerful, and most Limit Breakers can't deal with them. Wherever they pass, they spread a virulent plague."
A trace of fear flashed in Lao Sha's eyes and his body trembled slightly.
“It’s impossible for a stitched corpse monster to be formed naturally.” Su Ya imagined the scene in her mind.
"Yes, I've heard that the probability of a stitched corpse being formed naturally is very small. It is usually refined by spellcasters. Those spellcasters are called necromancers, and they are heretics hunted by the Glorious Church." Lao Sha said in a low voice.
