Port of Ancient Pond.
Today's Port of Ancient Pond was very different. The entire port was strangely silent.
The people of all walks of life on this island had all settled down today. Even the guards in charge of maintaining order were a little absent-minded. This was because everything they saw today was too shocking, to the point that the entire Port of Ancient Tang was silent. Everyone seemed to be waiting for something, or perhaps afraid of something.
A corpse was hung on the railing.
The corpse of the Honey Badger.
As a cruel and merciless person, who had just become the king of this port because of the fire, was now hung on the railing.
This port only had about 80,000 people. It was reasonable to say that in such a narrow place, when facing the apocalypse, it was unavoidable to be attacked by monsters. But the arrival of the White Dragon had allowed this place to be spared.
Where there were people, there would be disputes.
Awakened Professionals, because of various reasons, could not unite, so they formed some survival forces. At their peak, there were more than 20 forces. But the Honey Badger had both ability and means. When he did things, he was even more cruel and merciless. In order to achieve his goal, he would do anything.
A big fire.
It had established his rise.
If he had developed according to the normal path, on this island, he would have been the strongest force after the White Dragon.
But now, when the Honey Badger had reached his peak, he was killed in such a way. So much so that the confidants who followed the Honey Badger still felt like they were dreaming. They could not believe everything in front of them.
Groups of valiant warriors stood in front of everyone.
The people who were previously clamoring to follow the Honey Badger to make a name for themselves were now like mice on the side of the road. Their heads hung low, and they did not even have the courage to look at each other.
The Honey Badger was already dead.
And the ones who occupied this place were a group called [Order]. Just by looking at the other party's aura, it was clear that not only in Port of Ancient Pond, but also in the surrounding area, they were second to none.
Chen Feng stood at the front of the crowd. He looked at the people in front of him and the ruins behind him.
The Demonic Fish extinguished the fire. As a creature that controlled the power of the sea, when it was on the surface of the sea, it had the ability to summon rain. It rolled up the surrounding water and then poured it down. In less than half an hour, the fire in the city was extinguished.
There were cries and shouts everywhere.
The big fish had saved some people, but most of them had already been buried in the sea of fire. Even with the washing of the seawater, the smell of burning could not be washed away.
This smell was not the smell of burning garbage. Everyone knew that this was the smell of corpse oil produced after a human body was burnt.
Countless people were trapped in the raging inferno. It was easy to imagine that some human limbs were charred and scattered in the air.
Other than those who were guarding the captives, the rest of the soldiers joined the rescue team.
This was the first time most people were facing such a man-made disaster.
Due to the difficulties of their lives, these people lived in temporary houses, most of which were made of wood. This indicated that once the fire started, very few families could avoid this disaster.
A charred corpse lay on the ground. There was a bulge under her body, as if she was hiding something. The rescue team spent a lot of effort to pry it open. In an instant, a small figure appeared under the corpse.
A little girl.
She looked like she was only five or six years old. She wore a hairpin on her head. Compared to her mother's dark hair, her face was paler than a banana's.
That's right.
She was already dead.
Although the mother used her body to block the flames for the girl, the thick smoke around her became the scythe of the Grim Reaper, harvesting the girl's life.
The soldiers who participated in the rescue spat on the ground.
This world was ruthless. As an adult, due to some reasons, she became the party that was devoured. She could not blame others. She could only blame herself for not being ruthless and not being strong enough.
But as a child.
They didn't even have the strength to truss up a chicken. The words' survival of the fittest 'didn't suit them to begin with. But, as the weaker party, they had to endure even more disasters and atrocities.
Chen Feng called a professional and whispered a few words in his ear. The latter nodded and strode to the front of the crowd.
"Who set this fire?"
This was a man with a ponytail. His awakened power was related to the water element. Therefore, he was given the command of a ship.
Professional's abilities were strange. He was similar to some detection. When a ship was on the way, he could better distinguish the direction. Some people jokingly called him a humanoid navigator.
The victims had not yet woken up from the disaster. At this time, after seeing a group of strangers coming to their homes, some of the more timid people could not help but sob. For a moment, the scene was chaotic.
The man frowned. He pulled out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at the head of a middle-aged man. He said fiercely: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Who set this fire? If you can't tell me, I'll shoot you!"
The man was an outstanding warrior. He knew very well when he should show his authority.
The middle-aged man panicked to the extreme. Feeling the cold on his head, he trembled and pointed at the remaining honey badger troops. He said: "They …. It was done by the honey badgers …."
In front of Chen Feng was a black flag.
There were no superfluous decorations or fancy patterns. There was only the word 'order' written on it.
The ominous black seemed to be brewing a murderous intent. This murderous intent shrouded the port of Ancient Tang, making many people feel uneasy. Chen Feng coldly looked at the port of Ancient Tang in front of him, as well as the honey badgers pointed at by the middle-aged man.
There were about three hundred people.
At this time, these people had long been scared silly. They simply did not know what to do and could only look at Chen Feng anxiously. That's right, this fire was indeed set by them. Even after setting the fire, they were still somewhat regretful. However, they could not hide the fact that they were the culprits.
"Sir …. I think this is a mistake …."
The pressure around them was too heavy. One of the honey badgers walked out and tried to explain something.
"Bang!"
A fireball directly hit his body, and under the high explosion, the originally lively life instantly turned into a broken corpse on the ground.
"Kill them all."
That one sentence had decided their fate.
This was originally his orchard. But before the owner could do anything, a group of unscrupulous hooligans took the first step. Not only were the fruits plucked, even the fruit trees were uprooted.
This matter required an explanation.
And these people's lives.
