Chapter 592: Chapter 456, Blackstone Martial Arts Field_1
Leitoz abruptly cut off Mashak, finding holes in his story.
“Clan Leader Leitoz, I can guarantee that this is absolutely true. Moreover, the number of the Undead has reached a terrifying level. If we do not pay attention to it, it may have severe consequences,” Mashak immediately emphasized.
Leitoz continued, “Then explain. If you say that the number of the Undead has reached hundreds of thousands, where did they come from? Did they grow from the earth and appear directly outside the Blackstone Tribe?”
The tribes and cities were connected and communicated with each other.
An army of the Undead did not disturb any surrounding city, but suddenly appeared and conquered the Blackstone Tribe.
This did not make sense.
No matter from which direction the Undead came, there should be information transmitted, rather than suddenly launching an attack on the Blackstone Tribe.
“Leitoz, don’t probe into these details. Mashak has been resurrected at the Hero’s Altar and has brought back this important piece of information. We should focus on how to deal with the subsequent attack of the Undead, not where they came from,” Blackstone Clan Leader Andras, seriously commented.
Andras suppressed the anger in his heart.
If the Blackstone Tribe was not wiped out by the Undead, he would essentially be a powerless field commander.
He wished he could stand up and slap him to death.
At this moment, City Lord Krat also spoke, “Mashak, you said the Undead were reinforcements brought by those spiders, so they came from the west?”
Mashak didn’t understand why he asked this, but he replied, “The Undead first arrived in the Spiders’ Forest, then they continued to the east to attack the Blackstone Tribe. If the Undead does not intend to stop, they will probably arrive at ‘Tasgo City’ tomorrow and continue their attack.”
After hearing this, Krat, the City Lord, fell silent.
As the ruler of Tasgo City, he naturally knew more information.
Combined with the information provided by Mashak, something suddenly came to his mind.
He immediately ordered his subordinates, “Call Merchant Matva.”
The guard responded and quickly left.
Shortly after, Matva, who was unaware of the reasons, was dragged here and stood nervously.
“City Lord, two Clan Leaders,” Matva immediately saluted.
Matva acted as a representative of Tasgo City’s merchants, visiting various cities to negotiate trade relations on behalf of the official merchants of Tasgo City.
Or, in some of the more prosperous cities, he would open official stores for ‘Tasgo City.’
All along, Matva had been rather capable, though without any major achievements.
Until two months ago, when Matva secured cooperation between Tasgo City and the Manim Market. Both sides opened stores in each other’s cities.
Matva’s performance surpassed everyone, bringing significant benefits to Tasgo City.
On this occasion, Krat suspected the west when he summoned Matva.
Matva was standing below, and seeing that no one had spoken for a while, he felt somewhat nervous.
He rubbed his hands and cautiously asked, “Lords, how may I serve you?”
Krat carefully examined Matva before continuing, “How are those Taurens in Manim doing recently?”
Matva thought about it and replied, “City Lord, their business is doing very well, especially in the clothing industry, which is extremely profitable.”
Hearing this, the other two Clan Leaders also guessed why Krat asked this.
Because this clothing store was famous, and it was called the Bone Textile Store.
“Do you have any other connections with the Manim Market?” Krat continued to ask.
Matva answered, “I delivered a batch of goods to the Manim Market last month, and it’s not yet time for the next delivery.”
Krat nodded and continued, “Come, go with Matva, arrest everyone in these stores, I want to interrogate them personally.”
“Yes!” The guards responded in unison, startling Matva.
At the same time, he felt a sinking feeling in his heart. It wouldn’t be that something had happened between Manim and Tasgo City, right?
Thinking of this, Matva hurriedly said, “City Lord, it has been raining heavily these days, and the Taurens left the city, and their stores are all closed.”
Hearing these words, the faces of Krat and the others became even more grave.
They didn’t even need to guess—the enemy must be related to this Tauren city.
As for Leitoz’s concern about where the Undead came from, it now makes sense.
They came from the west, from the Manim Market, and entered this area.
Fury slowly rose in Krat’s eyes. He ordered coldly, “Take all of Matva’s subordinates and family members to jail.”
The guards acted quickly, and amidst Matva’s loud complaints, he was taken away.
The hall returned to silence.
The ins and outs of the matter were actually very clear.
This Undead army was indeed more formidable than they had imagined.
The Spider Camp and Tauren’s Manim Market both had ties to this Undead army.
The Blackstone Tribe’s action against the Spider Camp had evidently angered this army. They braved the heavy rain, crossing such a long distance, and launched an attack on Blackstone City.
Right now, they had to gather their forces and resist the arrival of the Undead army.
As for the Spider Camp and the Taurn’s Manim Market, they would settle accounts with them after the war was over.
