In the early hours, Ge Leader looked at the ground full of corpses, his brows were furrowed almost like a twisted rope.
"What on earth is going on?"
He couldn’t understand, even though he had doubled the manpower for each team, why could people still be poisoned like this?
The key was, so many people were incapacitated by poison, yet there was not a single sound.
If it weren’t for the team responsible for the outpost noticing the patrol team hadn’t returned or changed shifts for a long time and went out to look, he wouldn’t have known these people had all been harmed.
"Did you hear any noise?" he turned his head and asked the people behind him.
There were some in the patrol teams who were spared, but not many, and more had been incapacitated by poison.
Several patrol team leaders who were asked all shook their heads.
"Leader, we didn’t hear any noise at all. If you hadn’t sent someone to call us back, we wouldn’t have known such a big thing had happened."
This was a big issue; so many teams were suddenly incapacitated by poison, and now their patrol team was seriously short of people.
Adding more people again is not a simple matter.
Moreover, if it gets out that someone is specifically targeting their patrol teams, who would be willing to join them? Certainly, no one would.
Unless the master on the other side gives a strict order to make people e.
"I really didn’t expect such a thing to happen, otherwise..." he paused in his speech.
What could he do otherwise? People are already like this. If he had heard any noise and rushed over, he might not have been there to save people but to lay there with them.
Thinking of this possibility, he secretly resolved that in future patrols, he should be a bit more relaxed and not so serious.
The most important thing is to keep his own life safe.
If he ended up like those people lying on the ground, what could he do? He didn’t want to die early. Besides, even though he became an evil cultivator, he had never really harmed the mon people, and he restrained his subordinates too.
Several times, when he saw mon people sneaking out to find food, he would turn a blind eye, helping if he could.
He hoped those secretly poisoning people would spare him, considering he hadn’t harmed the mon people, and not use that terrible poison on him. He really couldn’t handle it.
Ge Leader glanced at him and sighed lightly.
"It seems this matter can’t be settled easily. I need to report to the master quickly."
He had a headache. This was a big issue. If the master found out, would he think he was ineffective in leading the patrol team? What if all the anger was directed at him? What should he do?
"Take people and send these ones to that courtyard, I’ll go meet the master." After instructing the team leader, he walked away in large strides.
The team leader was also full of worry, only able to watch the leader leave.
He hadn’t handled the previous matters, so he didn’t know how to deal with it, but that didn’t prevent him from understanding the consequences.
If he touched these people, he might end up just like them!
"You go find some white cloth, get some stretchers, wrap and carry them away, and also clear these streets, leave nothing harmful behind."
He instructed his subordinates.
