Shiro: The Secret Hero
178. Sneaking out

After seeing the surroundings before his eyes, Shiro was convinced that he was or reached the location of Ras Murloc's residence.

"Slow down!"

Shiro gives orders to Murloc Orca, and Murloc obeys Shiro's orders to slow down his movements.

After the same speed, Shiro then pulled the rope that connected the two of them. The Murloc stopped moving forward and was pulled backwards by Shiro.

Slasshhh~ Shiro took out the Twin White Tiger and slashed at Murloc Orca's neck.

He had reached his destination, so Murloc Orca was no longer needed as a guide. Like the proverb 'Sweetened, discarded'.

In addition, it could be dangerous if Murloc Orca met another Murloc. His current condition was strange and always answered all the questions thrown at him. Shiro decides to kill him.

After killing Murloc Orca in a single hit, Shiro then activated his Stealth skill and disappeared on the spot.

The pungent smell of blood began to spread from the location where the Orca Corpse was floating. Several monsters and numerous sea fish approached the location after hearing the smell of blood.

Not only fish and Sea Monsters, some Murlocs also rushed to the location. It was fortunate that Shiro had gone quite far from there and continued to swim towards the location of Ras Murloc's residence.

...****************...

The two Murlocs who had the appearance of a Sea Horse, rushed towards the location of the Blood Source. As guards, they had never encountered a brutal killing by the monsters surrounding their Ras neighborhood.

So the smell of scattered blood attracted their attention.

"Surge!"

One of the Murloc Sea Horses gave orders to the fish and Sea Monster that were near the Murloc Orca's corpse to give way to them.

The fish and the Sea Monster obeyed Murloc's orders.

How shocked the two of them were when they saw the corpse of Murloc Orca whose head had fallen and slowly there was a trace of poison in the body of the dead Murloc Orca.

"Damn, who did this? Hurry up and find a suspicious party around here!" said one of the Sea Horse Murloc angrily.

There had never been a Murloc assassination that had occurred during the time they had been inside after losing to the Chaos War in Endless Land.

"Yes, I'll do it!"

Murloc the other Sea Horse immediately went to look for something suspicious around the location.

For the other Murloc Sea Horse, he directly brought the corpse of Murloc Orca to the Ras Murloc guard office.

"Captain, Vice-Captain, seriously! There's an emergency!"

Murloc the Sea Horse entered the Guard Room with the corpse of Murloc Orca. Inside the room, there was a Murloc Orca with a scar on her body who was playing chess with a Murloc Shark that looked relatively easier.

The fierce-looking Murloc Orca was the Guard Captain Ras Murloc, while Murloc Shark was the recently sworn Vice-Captain.

Murloc Orca the Guard Captain immediately rushed to the Murloc Sea Horse and then directly carried the corpse of Murloc Orca who turned out to be his sister. He looked at the Sea Horse Murloc who was wearing guard clothes, then asked: "What happened?"

"Report Captain, while we were on guard, we smelled quite a pungent smell of blood not far from the location of the guard post. Then when we examined him, we saw that this body was dead with its head cut off. I immediately brought this body here and ordered my colleagues to search for suspicious parties near where this body was found."

The Sea Horse Murloc began to tell what he had met to the Guard Captain. Then he pointed to the neck of Murloc Orca's corpse which had begun to turn blue: "Captain look at this, from the slash on his neck which had only one scar and looked neat, neat, it signified that the enemy was so powerful that it could kill him in one strike."

Hearing the explanation from the Murloc Sea Horse, the Guard Captain and Vice Captain nodded. But the Guard Captain frowned: "But it could have been that my sister was being controlled or was hit by a mental attack. So that the enemy can defeat my brother easily."

Hearing the Guardian Captain's explanation, Vice Captain Murloc Shark noted behind. It's a valuable experience.

"That could have happened, Captain. But look at the skin and flesh not far from the former slash. There are patches of poison that are still spreading. If he had been controlled or passed out, there was no way the enemy would have attacked using poisonous weapons. It is possible that he was poisoned and when weakened, he was killed by the enemy." explains Murloc the Sea Horse while pointing to the neck of Murloc Orca's corpse whose poison continues to spread to the stomach area.

Hearing the explanation from the Murloc Sea Horse, the two felt the explanation was quite reasonable. The Guard Captain muttered and made a conclusion: "So the first suspect is the enemy using a poison weapon, huh?"

"You two, gather all the murlocs that have poison abilities or poisonous weapons. Gather everything to the square, just tell me this is an order from the Captain of the Guard." The Guard Captain began to give orders.

"But Captain, we don't have permission from the King yet" said Murloc Shark.

"That problem, leave it to me! You just do your job, I'll tell the king what happened. I'm sure the King will definitely give me face."

"Yes, Captain! I understand!"

The two began to go and carry out their duties. To the Guard Captain, he brought the corpse of his younger brother Murloc Orca to the King's palace to report the situation.

The Guard Captain is one of the highest powers recognized under the King's command. Moreover, the Guard Captain was quite familiar with the King. The two had fought together in Endless Land. So the Captain of the Guard was sure that the King would give him face.

The Guard Captain entered the palace, the guards guarding the palace gate only let him pass by while saluting.

Then he met with Murloc's servant. "Tell the King, Captain of the Orcain Guard, there's important news that needs to be delivered."

The servant saw the corpse of Murloc who was held by the Guard Captain instantly understood what was happening.

"Yes, Captain! Please wait a minute!"

The servant went and immediately visited the King's room. While Captain Murloc still stands while holding the corpse of his sister. Even though he was close friends with the King, it was still impolite for him to just come like this.

Soon, the King finally arrived. The King's appearance was muscular, and thick scaly. The figure is similar to a crocodile with many teeth and pointed, but the mouth is not too prominent like crocodiles in general.

"Yo, friend! What was? What's going on?" ask the King.

"Look at your highness..." Then the Guard Captain started telling me what happened. He also mentioned his conjecture and the orders he had given.

Hearing the explanation from the Guard Captain, the King frowned. This problem is quite serious.

"All right, just do what you want. I will support you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
