Chapter 205 The Scapegoat: Big Rotten Teeth
The inventory and reinforcement work in the secret chamber of the floating city came to an end, and Mirror Liu Nian set off again.
This time he changed his appearance again, transforming into an inconspicuous goblin player.
It's not that he doesn't want to continue maintaining the identity of "Big Rotten Teeth," but now that identity has definitely been exposed.
Moreover, this deceptive body has weaknesses: it cannot add other races as friends or integrate into their channels, which makes it easy to be exposed.
If he could even add channels and friends, Liu Nian might even dare to impersonate a pigman expert and infiltrate the pigman camp. Who knows, he might eventually become the second-in-command and directly compete for the position of Pig King.
Unfortunately, it's just a thought for now.
After obtaining the approximate location of the "Shimmering Mine" instance from Yang Lavie, he set off.
He is now a level 55 goblin player named "Rotten Nose".
This was a goblin he had killed in the nest of the Salamander Mother.
Just as Liu Nian was heading towards the Shining Mine, undercurrents were surging within the Pigman camp because Ironhoof had suddenly died.
Many pigmen in Shatterhoof Town saw Ironhoof Warhead chase a pigman named "Rotten Tooth" out of town, and then suddenly die.
When Iron Hoof was first imprisoned in the Abyss, he actually wanted to ask Grom for help, because he knew that no one else could save him!
But it's a pity he died too soon!
Now, the system is telling him that the killer was actually this pig-man called "Big Rotten Teeth"! Not Liu Nian as he thought!
A pig-man killed him, the war chief?
Iron Hoof couldn't understand it at all.
This guy is only level 65!
At this very moment, a level 65 ordinary warrior of the Bloodfang Clan named "Big Rotten Fang" is digging for materials in the swamp.
He was still completely bewildered when a group of energetic pig-men pinned him to the ground.
"Hey! What are you doing?! I'm a member of Bloodfang!" Big Rotten Fang roared, struggling.
"Shut up! Speak! Did you kill the Ironhoof Warchief of the Crackhoof Clan?!" the leading pigman asked viciously.
A pig-man nearby exclaimed, "Hey! You idiot, the adults forbid us from saying that!"
"What are you afraid of? Only a few of us know!"
Big Rotten Teeth was also dumbfounded: "What? Iron Hoof Warlord? Kill him? Captain, do I look like one? I'm only level 65! One breath from the Iron Hoof Warlord and I'm gone!"
The pigman captain knew this was unlikely, but orders came from above to thoroughly investigate all pigmen named "Big Rotten Tooth".
They thoroughly examined the Great Rotten Tooth, inside and out, checking his level, equipment, skills, and movements... but found nothing suspicious. He was just an ordinary, low-level pigman warrior.
Even so, he can't just wander around outside like that with those rotten teeth.
"Put them in a pig cage and take them away!"
Big Rotten Tooth was terrified. Once he was in the pig cage, what good could come of it?
At that point, even his chat channels will be blocked, and he won't be able to ask for help!
But could he possibly resist?
Big Rottooth also has friends, but he's just an ordinary pigman player, and his friends aren't particularly capable. Although he belongs to the Bloodfang Clan, he's never spoken to the Bloodfang Warchief...
"I...get out of here! I'm innocent!!"
------------
When Pig King Grom learned that Big Rottooth was only level 65, his expression calmed down.
Therefore, this big, rotten tooth couldn't be the murderer; the real murderer is Liu Nian!
This guy somehow managed to disguise himself as one of their pigmen and assassinated Ironhoof without warning.
Grom sighed. There was nothing he could do; any war chief in this situation would probably die!
Iron Hoof was simply unlucky enough to become the first target.
However, even though he knew it in his heart, Grom would never admit that Iron Hoof died at the hands of Liu Nian!
He was killed by Big Rotten Teeth!
As for who Big Rotten Teeth is and where he is, no one knows.
Players locked in pig cages will not be found or contacted.
So even if someone has suspicions, if they can't find the person, they have no evidence!
As for Big Rotten Teeth's friends... Hmph, they're just small fry. Do they have any influence over him, the great chief?
So, when Grom saw the various doubts in the channel, he angrily roared in the channel:
"Rotten Tooth killed Ironhoof Warchief! Which clan's brat was that? Investigate! Find out for me!"
He had to make a gesture for the other pigs to see.
The tougher he acts, the stronger the signal he sends to the pigs: it was they, the pigs, who killed Ironhoof. Essentially, it's an internal conflict, which, while egregious, isn't enough to demoralize them.
Otherwise, if a human were to kill one of their war leaders just before the war begins, such news would cause a major incident.
So Grom chose to play along and keep it a secret. After all, so many pigmen had seen Ironhoof chasing Rotten Tooth out of the city, and besides, the kill record was also for the pigman "Rotten Tooth".
Once he, as the chieftain, made his statement, even if the other pigmen were full of doubts, they couldn't say anything openly in the pigmen's chat channel. They could only discuss the strangeness of the matter in private conversations.
But almost everyone in the upper echelons of the pig-men knew in their hearts that the guy was Liu Nian!
They also contacted Iron Hoof in private. Although Iron Hoof also said that the killer was Pigman Rotten Tooth, the signature space and the iconic fist were definitely Liu Nian!
He must have used some method to disguise himself as a pig-man.
At this moment, the other six war chiefs, along with a group of high-ranking pigmen, were all in the chieftain's hall in Ironjaw Fortress.
Grom sat upright in his seat, his face looking quite grim.
Bloodfang spoke first: "Great Chieftain, this matter is strange. The Abyss... according to Gru's description, it's that human Liu Nian's signature skill! I believe Iron Hoof's death was his doing!"
Grom's face darkened even more upon hearing this.
He knew why Bloodfang said that, because Rotten Tooth belonged to their Bloodfang clan!
Once this is confirmed, the Clefthoof Clan will definitely demand an explanation from him!
However, the Bloodfang Clan must take the blame for this.
Standing in Grom's shadow was Ancestral Throat, his eyes gleaming with cunning. As Grom's confidant, he naturally understood Grom's thoughts at this moment, so he stepped forward: "That's hard to say. Skills aren't unique. Does that mean only Liu Nian is allowed to learn them, while our warriors can't master similar powers? The kill logs don't even indicate that it's Liu Nian."
"But Iron Hoof's strength, if not top-tier in our tribe, is definitely in the top five, right? Could any random guy just pop out and take him down?"
"Anything is possible in the game world. Perhaps a fortuitous encounter can create a top-tier powerhouse. How can such things be so absolute?"
"The Throat of Our Ancestor is right, perhaps we have produced an exceptionally powerful individual as well?"
"I still think..." Bloodfang wanted to argue.
"Enough! I don't care who he is!" Grom waved his hand irritably.
Even if Liu Nian really did kill him, Grom wouldn't admit it at this point!
"Ironhoof is dead, that's a fact! The key question is, what do we do now? How many days are left in the Upgrade War? One of the War Chief positions is vacant! Those idiots from the Crackhoof Clan have already started tearing each other apart for power!"
