Chapter: 1735
The men opened the door to the warehouse.
Jang Hamun entered, holding the torch the guards have handed him to light the way.
The inside of the warehouse was so dark to the point that he couldn�t see a thing without the light coming from the torch.
Inside the warehouse, which hadn�t been used for a long time, was a room made of large iron bars. It looked like a prison cell.
Inside was the cell was a bed and a small table. And in one corner, a person could be seen crouching. The shadow of the crouching figure was severely emaciated.
His body was as thin as a skeleton, and he was covered in scars.
His eyes also lacked unfocused, and saliva constantly dripped from his mouth. It was evident to anyone that he had suffered greatly.
That person was the source of Jang Hamun�s troubles.�
Lee Seong-hak claimed to have rescued the man from the sea during his journey here.
The man was floating naked in the sea and was completely exhausted. Lee Seong-hak tried to feed him porridge to make him restore his strength, but the man would go berserk. He behaved exactly like a madman, making it impossible to tend to him.�
Despite being so thin, the man still had great strength. He was so strong that he managed to cause injuries to the guards who tried to subdue him while they were on the boat.
Without thinking, Lee Seong-hak forcibly administered a hallucinogenic drug to him and put him in a box. Then he brought him here.
Even after coming here, the man�s condition did not improve.
The man would have seizures at varying intervals, and every time he had a seizure, the guards of the Sea Dragon Sect would face difficulties as well. In the end, Jang Hamun had no choice but to confine the man within iron bars, just like Lee Seong-hak.
�Hnngh!�
The man let out a series of bizarre breathing noises, while crouching down.
Jang Hamun stared at the man wordlessly.
The man kept his head lowered as if he was afraid of something.
Jang Hamun asked,
�Who are you? And why were you wandering in the sea?�
����
Naturally, the man did not respond.�
Jang hamun glared at him, his brows furrowing deeply. But even then, the the man did not answer.
In his heart, Jang Hamun wanted to deal with this man right away.
He could sense an ominous aura coming from the man. Based on his intuition, someone with such a foreboding atmosphere would bring a disaster.
If it were the usual Jang Hamun, he would have taken action without hesitation. However, the precious looking dagger placed on one side prevented him from doing so.
Jang Hamun looked at the small dagger placed on the table outside the iron bars.
The curved blade and crescent-shaped handle of the dagger were unfamiliar objects not seen in the Central Plains.
Jang Hamun had never seen a dagger of this shape before.
But what caught his attention more than anything else were the various and colorful gemstones embedded in the dagger�s hilt and handle. JrNovels.com
