The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Chapter 31: Necromancer Pugna

Honghe Village.

"Who are you? Why are you in Rose's house?"

Pugna, who had just thought of the travel route, met two men from the village who were looking for Rose as soon as he went out.

Pugna wanted to cast a spell to kill the two men directly, but after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to leave no trace. He was being hunted now, and any trace of magic would provide clues to Istar.

So the control Rose replied: "He is my uncle. I have been away for some time. My family is worried about my safety and asked my uncle to come out to look for me. I want to go home."

"Ah?" The two young men were stunned.

"Rose is leaving..."

One of the guys was still in a daze, while the other had already run away.

Pugna ignored the dazed young man and walked out of the village with Rose.

Before I even left the village, I found many villagers surrounding me.

"Hmm? Is this forcing me to go on a killing spree?" Pugna thought.

But judging from the villagers' expressions, it didn't look like they had discovered anything. Instead, they came forward and spoke to Rose enthusiastically, "Rose, you have to leave. Stay for a while longer. Did these guys bully you? Who did they do? Tell your auntie and she will help you beat him up."

Rose's consciousness was not very clear, but Pugna was a very smart man and understood what was going on immediately.

Then he controlled Rose and said, "Dear uncles and aunts, I'm going home. My uncle is here to see me."

Seeing that Rose was determined to leave, the villagers tried to persuade her to stay, but it was useless. (Rose also subconsciously wanted to leave)

……

After leaving the village, the young men in the village followed for a long time, especially the two young men who came to find Rose at the beginning.

"I didn't expect this woman to be so popular." Pugna turned his head to look at Rose and thought.

However, Lord Pugna was not very interested in these creatures of the opposite sex. He even liked a skeleton creature more.

Pugna and Rose gradually walked away.

The two young men stopped following him, and after a long while...

"Rose, I like you..." came the young man's roar.

……

The Great Forest of Tilmor.

"Master Jesse, there is no trace of magic nearby. I wonder which direction Pugna went? If we separate, I'm afraid..."

"Did I use the wrong spell? It's not like I don't know how to use offensive spells... It was Lord Fred who wanted to keep me alive." Jesse thought.

"Go this way." Jesse quickly shook off all distracting thoughts and specified a direction.

……

"Sir, something has been discovered."

Although Pugna did not use magic, an older person, no matter how careful he was, would still leave traces in the forest full of various plants.

"Chase," Jesse ordered.

……

Principality of Denton - Capital of Uxu City

As a vassal state of the Huiyao Empire, Denton also has a magic organization. Although it belongs to two different organizations from the Haoyue Empire, there is still a lot of communication between them during non-war periods.

The Ring of Magic Power is the largest magic organization in the Huiyao Empire. It is slightly inferior to the Haoyue Empire in terms of top-level combat power. Since receiving the news about the necromancer from the Haoyue Empire, the Ring of Magic Power quickly passed the news to various branches in the region. After all, no one wants to experience the undead disaster that happened a hundred years ago again.

"We also need to arrange manpower." President Urs ordered.

……

Port of Auckland – Hanson's Tavern

"It's been quite quiet on the sea lately."

"Yeah, the sailors are all rusty. I haven't seen them go out to sea for a long time."

"I seemed to have seen Francis a few days ago."

"Who?"

"That's the one from the Red Shark..."

"Oh, how dare he come up here."

"Who knows, maybe he hooked up with some big shot in the navy."

……

The Black Skull.

In recent months, Armand led a ship of pirates to plunder several small fishing villages and replenish some manpower and supplies. However, when they went back to the original base (Confession Island) one time, they found that there was no one on the island. The damn Red Bearded Francis did not leave him anything.

The pirates were not very sentimental. If they lost any women, they would just capture more. Except for a few who reacted more strongly, the other pirates quickly accepted the fact that their homes had been stolen.

The pirates on the Black Skull established a new base further south - Bounty Island. The indigenous people on the island either joined the Black Skull or were thrown into the sea.

"Boss, are we going to develop towards the Azure Empire?" asked one of the subordinates.

"It's not decided yet. Let's stay quiet for a while, then eat up some villages and replenish our strength. No matter where we go, strength is the most important thing." Ammand said.

……

Port of Oakland - Home of the Third Fleet

"Admiral, are you satisfied with this batch of goods?" Francis flattered enthusiastically.

Two months ago, the Red Shark helped Armand of the Black Skull to seize the throne. Armand and Francis reached an agreement that everything on the former Black Skull's lair (Confession Island) belonged to the Red Shark, and Francis easily obtained a group of female slaves.

"Not bad." Admiral Solomon said with satisfaction.

"It's better this way now. I like people like you who know the rules. Ever since Jack died, the person who replaced him has not come on time. Have you contacted him? If so, please send a message. If you don't want to make a living in this sea, get out as soon as possible." Solomon continued.

"Yes, yes, I will convey the admiral's request."

……

"Boss, land is still better. It's too boring to drift on the sea every day. How much did you sell this time?"

"What are you asking about? Is your share missing?" Francis said.

"Uh, no, Boss, I was just asking casually."

"That one in front seems to be the admiral of the Fifth Fleet."

After hearing what his men said, Francis looked and saw that it was indeed Commander Hedram Bergs, so he quickly pulled his men aside.

After Commander Hedram Bergs walked over, he said, "Boss, you are too cautious. He won't arrest people on the street without evidence. Besides, we haven't been wanted yet. Besides, with our relationship with the Third Fleet..."

Before his subordinate could finish, Francis interrupted him and said, "Don't say that again. If you really can't speak, next time you will be responsible for guarding the boat while I take the others off."

……

After more than a month of escape, Pugna took Rose to the Port of Auckland. He thought that he could no longer stay in the Haoyue Empire and the Huiyao Empire, as these two empires had been suppressing the necromancers in the past. It would be better for him to develop in the island country of the Azure Empire.

In the past few years, Pugna had been staying in various vassal states of the Haoyue Empire. Now they had obviously intensified the search for him, and it was impossible for him to fall into the trap. Relying on Rose's vague memory, he planned to sail out from the Port of Oakland and head to the Azure Empire.

Coincidentally, he and Rose had been walking the same route as Hedram Burgess, and when they passed by Francis and his group, they heard their conversation about "something wanted, the Third Fleet, and ships."

Pugna noticed it and followed Francis after making a circle.
