Chapter 181: Chapter 161, Always Generous to Friends _1
Upon hearing Wu Heng’s order.
A cluster of skeletons carrying tools surrounded him.
Wu Heng strolled around the office building for a loop, when he returned, the original cement ground had been dug out into a pit of soil.
Wu Heng took out the ‘Book of Necromancy’, referenced the construction methods written in it, and began to direct the skeletons in assembling the building according to the design.
The entire building structure resembled a module-based assembly.
First, four semi-circular discs were combined according to their size into a structure of large circles incasing smaller ones, followed by three stone columns over three-meters-high being erected in the positions left for them in the ring.
Several modules were pieced together like shapes to forms.
Creating a complete building.
Before long.
Li Yahong brought over a heavy container filled with golden-colored liquid metal.
“What should we do?” Li Yahong asked.
Wu Heng pointed to several connection points in the building, “Be careful, pour it in there.”
Li Yahong nodded, waved an indication to the three people behind her to pour the liquefied metal into the specified positions.
The golden liquid filled the indentations, connecting the modules into a complete structure.
Forming a unique and complete pattern.
“Do you need anything else?” Li Yahong continued to ask.
Wu Heng shook his head, “Go rest, I’ll notify you if there’s anything else.”
“Okay.” Li Yahong left with a few others, leaving only Wu Heng and the multitude of skeletons.
Time passed slowly.
The liquid metal in the structure began to cool gradually.
Wu Heng continued to cast necromancy magic on the three steles.
According to the ‘Book of Necromancy’, doing this is to memorize the source of the magic, otherwise, the summoned skeleton would not know who to listen to.
When magic power had been infused into all three steles.
A faint wave of light expanded outwards, activating the building.
“Bring those corpses over.” Wu Heng ordered.
A few skeletons by his side went over to the side, dragged the killed zombies over, and threw them directly into the center of the disc.
As the corpse entered the disc, the soil in the middle began to churn like boiling water.
And gradually swallowed up the body in the middle.
Approximately two to three minutes later, a complete skeleton warrior slowly crawled out from the muddy sand.
With its hollow eye sockets scanning the surroundings, it then stepped out of the building and bewilderingly stood to the side.
The churning soil continued to swallow the second corpse.
Wu Heng looked at the newly emerged skeleton warrior, and ordered, “Pick up the weapon.”
The skeleton walked over, bent down to pick up a kitchen knife lying on the ground.
Wu Heng nodded in satisfaction.
The effect was pretty good, the records in the Book of Necromancy turned out to be reliable.
He was truly afraid that the summoned skeleton warriors wouldn’t follow his commands.
Then this money would be really wasted.
After all, the purchase of the building and the casting of the liquid gold cost quite a lot of money.
It would be enough to buy several hundred sets of equipment.
The construction was completed.
He also achieved one of his objectives.
There was no need to come in every day after this, with the first task being to convert the skeletons.
The building could transform them on its own.
He took a stroll around the nearby area.
Then headed towards the survivors’ residential area.
He made a round in the prison with Li Yahong.
This was mentioned to him by Li Yahong when he arrived earlier.
Making frequent appearances in front of others would be beneficial for the stability of the entire prison.
After a round.
Li Yahong took Wu Heng to the ward to check on the severely injured girl.
The doctors had given up on her, but Wu Heng managed to save her.
She was actually not that old, just 21 years old and hadn’t yet graduated from college.
But she was in a pretty battered state.
This incident had caused quite a stir in the prison.
It was quite miraculous to be able to save someone in such a situation.
Currently, there were two doctors in the prison’s hospital.
An initial male doctor with the surname Guan, and Dr. Zheng who was rescued from the building materials warehouse.
Both of them were responsible for the medical side, and they also taught two apprentices who acted as assistants and nurses.
After a round.
When there was nothing else to do.
Wu Heng returned to his room.
And then went to Lundham City.
…
At this time, it was already nearing dusk.
Mini and Andre Willow have returned early.
After dinner.
Mini, dressed in a yoga outfit, started training with Bawudong.
With her delicate body, and young, energetic physique.
Calling it training was more like watching an enjoyable performance.
After training for a while.
Mini, drenched in sweat, came over and kneeled next to Wu Heng, resting her chin on his thigh.
Gasping for breath, she asked, “Master, how did I do with those two moves just now?”
“Erm… it looked pretty good.”
“If I go out, will I be able to beat the gangsters?” Mini continued to ask.
Wu Heng glanced at her and said, “You might get them more excited, how about focusing on running away for now!”
Andre Willow at the side held in her laughter.
Mini’s expression dipped, “That can’t be right…?”
Wu Heng stroked her head, “Just keep practicing. Some people have been training for years, so it’s a bit unrealistic that you could beat them just after two days.”
“Ah… that’s true.” Mini nodded, thoroughly enjoying Wu Heng’s head rub, then asked, “Master, the fabric of this outfit feels so comfortable, it must not be cheap, right?”
“It’s not really expensive, it’s produced in my hometown. You can’t find it here.”
“Ohhh~ Master, you’re too good.” Mini hugged his leg and acted coquettishly.
A pair of resilient touches constantly rubbed against his calf.
Wu Heng glanced at Andre Willow beside him, seemingly oblivious, and lightly pinched her rabbit ears, “Keep on training.”
“Yes, Master.” After a short rest, Mini got up and resumed her position.
She resumed her training with Bawudong.
Hearty laughter echoed around the room.
…
Early the next morning,
Wu Heng first went to the association, but found no members present.
He directly headed to the Snake Badge Consortium.
Having visited several times before, he no longer needed an escort.
After greeting the people there, he proceeded to a side lounge.
Shortly after, ‘Laisia’ entered, her hips swaying as she walked in a long dress.
Seeing Wu Heng, her bright smile said, “Good morning, Mr. Wu Heng.”
“Good morning. I’ve come to return the storage sachet.” He then returned the previously borrowed prop.
The space inside the sachet was much larger than his space ring.
The price was definitely steep.
Wu Heng desired it, but he wasn’t crazed enough to forcefully take it from the consortium.
He would have plenty of opportunities in the future.
Moreover, he couldn’t afford to damage the relationship he had established with the consortium.
Laisia accepted it and handed it over to the staff. She smiled, saying, “Mr. Wu Heng, true to your word. You returned it so quickly.”
“After all, you took some risk as well. As I no longer needed it, I returned it.”
Laisia’s smile brightened.
The Snake Badge Consortium and the Professional Association cannot be said to have a particularly good relationship.
At most, they were in a state of peaceful co-existence.
However, regarding the young and affluent team captain before her, her attitude shifted from serving a wealthy client to finding him more agreeable.
Even sitting and chatting leisurely didn’t feel like a waste of time.
She flippantly stretched on the nearby sofa, showing off her voluptuous figure, and smiled as she said “Thank you, Captain Wu Heng.”
“The future requests will have to trouble Miss. Laisia.”
“Of course.”
“Then I’ll leave now,” Wu Heng stood up and stated.
“Feel free to drop by. I’m more than happy to chat with the Captain.” Laisia followed suit, affectionately linking her arm with his, and they walked a couple of steps out together.
Wu Heng was momentarily stunned by her gesture.
The other worker in the room tactfully lowered her head, avoiding watching the pair.
Walking up to the lounge door, Laisia withdrew her arm.
“Sure, I too would love to chat with Miss Laisia. I’ll drop by when there’s a chance.” Wu Heng replied with a smile.
Although Laisia appeared charming, she was definitely not as frail as she appeared.
The local head of the consortium was akin to the council of the association.
Council appointments were only given to those above level 13, with significant merits on their record, and who were extremely prominent in both intelligence and ability.
Laisia, as the representative of the consortium, must have a substantial level and strength.
Her beauty was just superficial.
He pushed open the door and exited.
Laisia only returned to the room slowly after seeing him to the door.
…
After leaving the consortium, Wu Heng went to the shop.
When dusk fell, he locked up the shop and headed home with two maidservants.
They hadn’t even left the Outer City Area
when several figures blocked their path.
One of them was the fat man who wanted to reclaim the ‘Sacrificial Wand’ and the ‘Blood Cup’ from him.
Standing in the front, he adjusted his heaving belly and said with a smile, “Captain Wu Heng, about last time, I want to have a chat with you.”
“There’s nothing to discuss, I have already told you the price, you just need to prepare the money,” Wu Heng directly replied.
“This time it isn’t just me. Please, follow me to the tavern right ahead,” the man pointed backward adjacent to them.
Wu Heng followed his gesture and glanced at the direction.
It was a tavern situated on the same street.
After a moment of contemplation, he agreed, “Fine, lead the way!”
Given the time and location,
the man probably wouldn’t dare to do anything untoward.
Even if something did happen, he was more than capable of defending himself.
“Alright, this way please.”
They all walked towards the front.
Pushing the tavern doors open,
it was empty. Only a man dressed in purple sat at the wooden table in the middle, surrounded by several guards in silver armor.
“Please!”
Wu Heng walked over and sat down across from the man.
The man looked somewhat elderly, with white hair, and wrinkled skin, yet his behavior indicated he was a nobleman.
“Captain Wu Heng,” the man spoke softly.
“Yes, and who might you be?” Wu Heng asked in return.
“Gianluca, I conduct some business in the city.”
“Alright, let’s cut the small talk. Why have you called me here today?” Wu Heng asked straight away.
The man looked up explaining softly, “There seems to have been some misunderstanding between us. We always wished to maintain a cordial relationship with Captain Wu Heng.”
“Mhm. We are quite cordial. So, what’s the point?”
Clap! Clap!
Upon the man lightly clapping his hands,
several figures emerged from one side of the tavern.
Two men held a tray covered with a red cloth, while five young women, both humans and beastmen, trailed behind them.
Upon reaching the dining table,
the women swiftly undressed, revealing their naked bodies.
The men also lifted the red cloth on the trays revealing neatly stacked silver coins beneath.
Mini and Andre Willow, standing at the door, immediately reddened in embarrassment.
Wu Heng’s brows rose, “What’s the meaning of this?”
“We are generous towards our friends. This is a gesture of apology for the incident last time.”
