Her contemptuous attitude obviously angered the members of the Penguin Gang.
"If you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink wine as a penalty!"
Jill walked towards Sera, and in order to intimidate her, she took out a handful of small fists and started shaking them in her hands in a very fancy way.
He could see that this maid was obviously quite capable and had to be dealt with seriously.
"My knife is coated with a poisonous blade—"
Before Jill could say anything, the red-haired maid appeared in front of him.
Sera grabbed Jill's collar and without giving the wolf-headed man any time to react, threw him up and hit another Penguin Gang member, breaking his bones on the spot.
If Gil hadn't had thicker skin, his waist would have probably been broken.
Everyone was shocked by this scene.
Then, Sera raised her foot and stepped directly on Jill.
With each kick, the alley was filled with wailing. In the face of the exaggerated force, the wolf-headed man's body was almost deformed and he had no power to fight back.
“Stop it, stop it now…! What are you guys still standing there for?!”
Jill shouted, not caring about his face anymore, and asked his younger brothers to come up and rescue him.
The result is scolding...
Without exception, all of them were knocked down by Sera, and none of them could last a single round in her hands.
Jill fell into despair, feeling that she had offended someone she shouldn't have offended.
He felt so unlucky in his heart.
Who would have known that such a beautiful woman could be so fierce in a fight!
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, I accept it!!" Jill held his head and begged for mercy.
But Sera didn't let this guy go.
The reason why she didn't use magic but violence was to use this primitive and brutal method to instill fear into the bones of the Penguin Gang.
All the members of the Penguin Gang could only lie on the ground and watch helplessly. The once arrogant wolf leader was now like a drowned dog, begging for mercy continuously.
"Stop hitting me. If you keep hitting me, I'm going to die!!"
Jill's face was covered with bruises and her entire head was swollen, as big as a pig's head that had been injected.
"Sister, I was wrong! I'm willing to do anything as long as you let me go. Sister, you are my only sister!"
Sera stopped in disgust.
"Don't call me that. You don't deserve it."
"Okay, okay!" Jill had lost several teeth, but he still smiled out of his desire to survive.
This time, Sera really stunned everyone.
After finishing her work, she returned to Xia Yi.
"Miss, it's done."
"Ah."
Xia Yi nodded.
This scene was witnessed by everyone, and made everyone understand that this silver-haired young lady was not simple.
"I have something to ask you." Xia Yi looked at Jill.
"Okay, I don't know what to call this lady..."
"You are not qualified to know the eldest lady's name." Sera's words were full of murderous intent.
Jill was pretty scared.
"Don't scare people like that," Xia Yi glanced at Sera, "You were a little too heavy-handed just now. You injured all of them. This was totally unnecessary."
"I'm sorry, Miss..."
Sera lowered her head.
One plays the good guy and the other plays the bad guy, and the effect is quite good.
Jill became very respectful towards Shay.
"Miss, is there anything you want to know? I have been in Seaside City for many, many years, and I will tell you everything I know!"
Seeing that her fishing was successful, Xia Yi smiled.
"The question I want you to answer is very simple..."
08 Kuroshio
"You say it, just say it!"
Jill agreed readily, as if she saw a way to survive.
Xia Yi asked directly: "I heard that disasters occurred in many cities in Gold, right?"
"Disaster? What do you mean...?"
"Do you really not understand what the young lady said, or are you pretending not to understand?" Sera glared at Jill.
This frightened him so much that his soul almost flew out of his body.
"S-Sorry, the disaster you're talking about is the Kuroshio?!"
Kuroshio?
It was the first time that Xia Yi heard this term.
"Tell me in detail." Xia Yi ordered.
"Okay! Actually, recently in Gold, many coastal cities have implemented a sea ban policy at night. No one is allowed to approach the sea in any form, no matter what the reason. If you are caught, you will be thrown into jail!"
Jill paused.
"That's because a mysterious disaster called the Black Tide occurred in Gold. It is said that at night, darkness from the depths of the ocean will rise to the shore and surge into the city, devouring all life. Wherever it goes, no one will survive."
Xia Yi felt that the disaster that Jill described was very similar to the intelligence.
So, the disaster that she came to Gold to investigate was this black tide.
"Isn't this a legend? It's a bit mysterious."
"Miss, this is a real disaster! Many cities were swept by the black tide at night. The next day, the city became a dead city. No living things would be left. Even dogs would disappear. It might have been bustling the day before, but turned into a ghost town the next day!"
Jill was confident.
"There are many cities in Gold that are suffering from such disasters!"
Xia Yi felt that there was something strange about Jill's speech.
Even dogs disappear out of thin air?
"What you just said was, disappear... not die, right?"
"Yes, this is the terrifying part about the black tide. In a city swept by the black tide, all living things will evaporate, and not even corpses will be left."
"why is that?"
"Sorry, I don't know. This is all the information I learned through underworld channels. I haven't experienced it personally." Jill shook his head.
Xia Yi listened to the information provided by Jill.
This did answer some of her questions, but it also brought with it more questions.
She glanced at Jill, who was now trembling with fear. Her spirit might collapse at any time under the high pressure. It was obvious that she had no energy left to lie. She just wanted to tell everything she knew in exchange for a chance to live.
"Will a city that has experienced a black tide experience a second black tide?" Xia Yi asked.
"Eh, this...it seems that it really doesn't work. That's strange. Why is that?" Jill was stunned by the question.
Xia Yi noticed that this might be a key point.
There is another puzzling puzzle.
Why can the black tide ensure that the lives of the entire city are completely swallowed up?
If a disaster really happened, many people would surely flee. How could no one survive?
"Are you sure that no one survived the black tide?" Xia Yi was very puzzled.
"No, young lady. It is precisely because no one survived the black tide that it is a terrible disaster in the hearts of the Gold people."
Jill said, complaining unconsciously.
"Those foreigners who entered Gold claimed to be helping Gold, but they turned a blind eye to this disaster. No matter how much the Gold people asked, they would not provide any help at all!"
Xia Yi and Sera looked at each other.
It seems that this is the limit of what Jill knows.
"Aren't you afraid that the black tide will also occur in coastal cities? You can choose to escape and hide inland. Then you don't have to worry about the black tide. After all, black tides only occur in cities near the sea."
"Miss, there are so few people in Seaside City because most of them have fled. But I think that if you flee inland, you will be captured and sent to the army, or you will be dragged into the war, and your fate will be similar... Those who stay have basically given up hope."
Xia Yi seemed to be thinking about something.
Sure enough, the locals you see in the coastal city all look the same, and that’s the reason.
This is just as the dragons planned.
If I can destroy the Black Tide, I can become a hero of Gold, rally the people, and drive out the invading foreign forces...
By then, it is inevitable that the dragon clan will gain the faith of the people of Gold.
"Is there anything else you need to ask, Miss?" Jill asked cautiously.
"Oh, nothing more. Has anything strange happened in Haibin City recently?" Xia Yi asked casually.
In fact, she already knew everything she wanted to know.
There was no need to continue interrogating the Penguin Gang leader.
