Chapter 408, Investigating the Corpse

Illuminating Stones hung from the ceiling, lighting up the faces of the individuals below.

The entire room was quiet as death.

Even the usually talkative Guard Team stood frozen in place, staring at the coffin in disbelief.

Mackintosh was dead!

The leader of the Old Barrel who controlled all the workers at the harbor and was known for having numerous lovers, now lay silently within it.

Dressed in his most familiar clothes, surrounded by scattered flower petals.

Wu Heng observed the few members of the Guard Team and, judging by their expressions of disbelief, they had just learned of his death as well.

"When did this happen?" Wu Heng asked.

With a soft sigh, Baldy replied, "The boss couldn't hold on and passed away the day after the attack, so we prepared the coffin."

Wu Heng looked at the body. "What was the cause of death?"

"Snake venom."

Snake venom?

"No elixir was used?"

The development of elixirs in this world had reached a staggering level.
