Zhao Hai finally chose his target, a middle-sized family in the city. Although this family wasn't very conspicuous, it had existed in Green Wave City for several generations. Such families generally had deep roots, making it hard for people to move against them. Therefore, Zhao Hai chose this family.
After choosing this family, Zhao Hai sneaked into their home under the cover of night. But when Zhao Hai sneaked in, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. This was because he saw a lot of acquaintances in the house. These people were the people who followed him during the day.
At this time, these people had changed their clothes and were in the hall, reporting to the family's patriarch. Upon seeing this situation, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. He didn't think that he would choose a den of thieves.
However, this was also what Zhao Hai wanted. Zhao Hai knew that it would be useless to deal with these people. These people were just small fries that listened to orders. He couldn't get anything out of them. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn't make a move on them.
Zhao Hai wasn't very familiar with Ghost Face, so he didn't follow these people. He wanted to see who they were contacting. However, he didn't expect that he would accidentally find a den of thieves. This was beyond his expectations.
Zhao Hai's mind moved as a metal formation appeared in the room. Then the room was covered by a transparent shield. Then Zhao Hai appeared in the room.
The people in the room stared blankly when the metal formation appeared. When Zhao Hai appeared, they were even more stunned. However, it can be seen that the people in the room were all experienced experts. Because of this, when they saw Zhao Hai, they immediately took out their weapons.
Zhao Hai stood in the room and looked at the middle-aged man who stood up and took out his staff. He was around 40 years old and wore a luxurious robe. Zhao Hai said, "I didn't expect you to be one of Ghost Face's people. But this is also good, it saves me a lot of trouble."
When the man heard Zhao Hai, he knew that he was exposed. He didn't waste time and immediately shouted, "Kill!" Then he moved his hand and activated the formation on his staff. This time, he activated an attack formation. An iron arrow was shot towards Zhao Hai.
The other people in the room also began to move, using all kinds of techniques to attack Zhao Hai. When Zhao Hai saw this, his figure moved, and then he dove into the ground, avoiding this attack. But when the people in the room wanted to attack again, they suddenly discovered that they couldn't use any techniques. The people in the room stared, then their faces changed.
They were all Warlocks. If a Warlock couldn't use spells, then wouldn't they be finished? This was what the Warlocks were most worried about.
At this time, Zhao Hai appeared in the room. He looked at the people and smiled faintly, "What's wrong? Could it be that he couldn't use any spells? Hehe, do you see this formation? This is a barrier formation. It can absorb all of the Five Elemental Energy outside. In other words, the Five Elemental Energy you just used was the last bit of Five Elemental Energy in this room. Now that the Five Elemental Energy has disappeared, even if your spiritual force is very strong, you don't have the Five Elemental Energy to control it. So naturally, you can't use Magic Arts. "
The middle-aged man coldly snorted and said, "What are you so proud of? We can't use spells, but you can't use them either. I don't believe that we can't beat you with so many people."
Zhao Hai looked at the man and smiled faintly. "You think you can beat me? Hehe, not necessarily. " After he said that, Zhao Hai's hand moved as a mass of blue energy suddenly appeared in his hand. Then Zhao Hai threw the mass of blue energy to the ground. The energy exploded and a layer of frost formed in the room. The people in the room felt their bodies go numb, it was as if they were frozen.
Actually, Zhao Hai's move was the Freezing Spell. He wanted to make these people's bodies turn cold in an instant. This way, their bodies would go numb and they wouldn't be able to move. Naturally, they wouldn't be able to resist. After these people couldn't move, Zhao Hai immediately threw a Slave Formation on each of them.
The people in the room naturally fainted. Then they woke up several times before fainting again. After repeating this several times, they finally returned to normal.
At this time, Zhao Hai waved his hand and dispelled the spell. Then he cast a healing spell on the people in the room, making them feel better. Under the lead of the middle-aged man, these people came forward and gave Zhao Hai a salute.
Zhao Hai waved his hand, then he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "What is your status in the Ghost Mask Society?"
The man immediately replied, "Replying to the Master, I'm a Silver Masked Emissary in the Demon God's World Purification Group."
"Demon God's World Purification Group? Is that the Ghost Mask Assassin Regiment? Interesting, you said that you're a Silver Masked Emissary, then is there a Gold Masked Emissary above you? Have you seen that person? Who is he? "
"Replying to the Master, I haven't seen the Gold Masked Emissary's face, nor do I know him. Every time I meet him, he's always wearing a mask. But I heard that there's a Spirit Mask Captain above the Gold Masked Emissary. However, this Spirit Mask Captain is even more mysterious, no one has ever seen him before."
"Why did you join the Demon God's World Purification Group? Your Yu Family is a big local clan, so why did you become an assassin? "
"Master, the Yu Family is a big family in this area. However, more than twenty years ago, the Yu Family encountered a huge crisis. At that time, the Yu Family was almost wiped out. Later, the people of the Demon God World Purification Group helped us. That's why the Yu Family is where it is today. That's why I joined the Demon God World Purification Group and became the Silver Masked Envoy."
"So that's how it is. Then what kind of authority do you have as a Silver Masked Emissary?"
"Replying to the Master, the Silver Masked Emissary is in charge of ten cities to a country. Within this country, all the World Purification Assassins are under my control. I can also do business on my own. But if there are any orders from above, I must obey."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, you can still report to the Ghost Mask's people in the future. In any case, everything is normal during the day. If the Ghost Mask makes any special movements, you can report to me. Also, collect information about Green Wave City and all the cities under your control. If there's any important information, use this transmission formation to send it. Alright, I'm going back, you can continue." After saying that, Zhao Hai's figure moved and disappeared from the room.
After returning to his room, Zhao Hai let out a long sigh of relief. Then he couldn't help but smile. He didn't think that such a good thing would happen. Subduing the Yu Family's Patriarch was equivalent to subduing a lot of people from the Ghost Mask. Moreover, the Ghost Mask's people had been collecting a lot of information over the years. In the future, Zhao Hai's sources of information would be much more secure.
Zhao Hai didn't ask the Yu Family's Patriarch if he knew any other Silver Masked Emissaries. Organizations like the Demon God's World Purification Group would generally protect the identities of their higher-ups. A Silver Masked Emissary was already a high-ranking member, so it was naturally impossible for them to reveal their identity. Therefore, Zhao Hai didn't ask.
After dealing with this matter, Zhao Hai felt a lot more relaxed. He was now ready to go to the other cities. Just like in the Thick Earth Continent, he needed to plant a spy in each city to be at ease.
The next morning, Zhao Hai checked out of his room and left Green Wave City through the transmission formation. Although he had subdued the Yu Family's Patriarch, the Ghost Mask still didn't relax their surveillance. However, Zhao Hai didn't mind. In any case, they were only monitoring him and didn't make a move. Naturally, he wouldn't mind.
Although Zhao Hai already knew that the Ghost Mask Assassin Group was actually called the Demon God's World Purification Group, he was still used to calling them Ghost Mask. In any case, he didn't go around shouting about it.
In the following period of time, Zhao Hai wandered around the various cities of the Tree Spirit Continent. He visited all the cities of the continent. Naturally, every time he visited a city, he would subdue a family and make them his slaves. This way, his intelligence network would naturally spread out.
What Zhao Hai did in the past few days was naturally turned into intelligence that was sent to Hai Bao. When Hai Bao saw the intelligence, he didn't know what to say. The intelligence was nothing more than where Zhao Hai went, what hotels he stayed in, where he ate, and even what he ate. However, there was nothing useful in it. It seems like Zhao Hai just went on a tour.
Hai Bao would still be suspicious if he saw it once or twice, but after seeing it a few times, he no longer doubted it. In his opinion, perhaps Zhao Hai was just an ordinary Adventurer who wasn't worthy of his attention.
Hai Bao wasn't satisfied with this result. He always thought that Zhao Hai wasn't that simple. However, all the evidence proved that he was just overthinking. He had no choice but to believe in this piece of evidence. However, he still decided to fully monitor Zhao Hai while he was in the Tree Spirit Continent. He wanted to see if there was any problem with him.
Zhao Hai didn't have much resentment towards this matter. After experiencing so many things, he was already very good at what he did. Naturally, it was impossible for the other party to see through him. Because of this, Zhao Hai was very calm as he carried out his plan. It took him about three months to deal with the matters in the Tree Spirit Continent.
After three months of observation, Hai Bao finally gave up on monitoring Zhao Hai. This was because he had other things to do and didn't have much time to observe Zhao Hai. So after a long time, he naturally stopped paying attention to Zhao Hai.
Three months later, Zhao Hai boarded the ship once again. This time, his destination was the Volcano Continent. Naturally, he didn't meet Hai Bao on the ship. However, when he boarded the ship, he heard that several ships from the Thick Earth Continent to the Arctic Continent were attacked by powerful sea beasts and sunk. Moreover, all of the ships were passenger ships. Now, the Thick Earth Continent has sent experts to clean up the sea beasts in the area where the ships sunk.
However, when Zhao Hai heard this news, he immediately felt that something was wrong. The people of the Five Spirit Realms had been dealing with sea beasts for a long time. Although sea beasts would sometimes attack human ships, it was very rare for them to actually destroy a ship. Some people said that sea beasts didn't like to eat humans. On the contrary, they were very interested in land beasts. Because of this, as long as humans gave them some land beast meat, they wouldn't embarrass humans. After all, attacking a human ship would require them to fight. These sea beasts weren't fools. If they could obtain good things without fighting, then naturally they wouldn't fight. Instead, they would just sit and eat, how good would that be?
Although there are some ships destroyed by sea beasts every year, most of them were cargo ships. It has been a long time since a passenger ship was destroyed by sea beasts. But this time, several ships were destroyed. There were more than a thousand people on each ship. The destruction of several ships meant that more than ten thousand lives were lost. Of course, this was a big deal.
However, in Zhao Hai's view, this matter wasn't that simple. In the past, Ghost Face used a blood sacrifice to awaken the Demon God. However, the blood sacrifice was interrupted. In other words, although the Demon God woke up, the blood sacrifice wasn't completed. It might even be said that even if the Demon God recovers, he would still be very weak. Therefore, he needs flesh and blood to help him recover.
However, if a large number of people were casually killed on any of the continents, then it would be noticed and investigated. At that time, it would certainly cause a huge uproar. Therefore, they thought of using this method to destroy several passenger ships. Naturally, the people on the ships would become sacrifices to the Demon God.
Moreover, Zhao Hai clearly remembered Hai Bao's words. He said that there were a lot of passenger ships that belonged to the same person. This sentence sounded like there was nothing wrong with it. When a person's influence was big and he had money, it wouldn't be a problem for him to manage several passenger ships. However, one shouldn't forget that Hai Bao was one of Ghost Face's people. What he meant was that Ghost Face controlled a lot of passenger ships. Zhao Hai believed that Hai Bao wasn't lying. Ghost Face's people must have controlled a lot of passenger ships. This was because Hai Bao didn't know that Zhao Hai was investigating him. Moreover, there was nothing wrong with his words on the surface. Therefore, he wasn't afraid of Zhao Hai thinking too much about it. Therefore, he told the truth. And this sentence also confirmed that the accident of those passenger ships might really be related to Ghost Face.
Regardless of whether those passenger ships were controlled by Ghostface or not, this matter made sense. If those passenger ships were controlled by Ghostface, then it was because they needed to provide blood for the Demon God. Therefore, it was normal for a few ships to be destroyed. If those ships weren't controlled by Ghost Face, then it also made sense. Ghost Face could use the excuse of providing blood for the Demon God to sink those passenger ships. They could even use this method to attack their competitors. It could be said that it was killing two birds with one stone.
It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai believed that the sinking of those passenger ships must be caused by Ghost Face.
