Chapter 1075: Chapter 850: Let Wu Heng Owe Them a Personal Favor Chapter 1075: Chapter 850: Let Wu Heng Owe Them a Personal Favor Lilith's spell that makes people's mouths disappear.
Indeed, it was sent over to her.
To this day, Wu Heng still remembers how Lilith, with a casual wave of her hand, sealed the mouth of a level 18 Priest of The Holy Court and then sealed both the mouth and eyes of a Church Knight.
Later, it was heard that it was only after going to the headquarters of the association that the seal was fully lifted.
Such an effect still gives a kind of alternative shock.
For instance, directly sealing the mouth of a Bard would basically render them useless.
Similarly, any profession that loses the nose, ears, or eyes would also have their combat ability greatly reduced.
Flipping through the Skill Book, Wu Heng looked at the content above.
'Decree of Deprivation' is a high level curse-like spell of negative energy.
The corresponding level is fourth-tier or above, that is, level 18 or above.
And the effect of the skill is not only to deprive the facial organs, but some parts of the body can also achieve a 'deprivation' effect.
Of course, the effect of this skill can also be canceled.
It's not a permanent loss of the deprived organs.
Wu Heng glanced at the general content in front of him, then continued to read the text that followed.
A lot of symbols and knowledge mentioned there had been brought up in 'Disease Radiation' and 'Grave Injury Spell,' which he could understand.
The book flipped to the last page, and the long-awaited system prompt sounded once again.
[Unlocked skill: Decree of Deprivation.]
Indeed, the panel is more convenient.
Successfully unlocked this skill.
After the skill was unlocked.
Wu Heng stood up to stretch his body, then sat down again to continue reading the second notebook.
Upon opening it, the content inside was the personal notes of a Necromancer.
It recorded some learning experiences, insights, and the problems encountered during necromantic experiments.
It seems that this Necromancer must have been eradicated by the association.
The experiments mentioned some living subjects, and this notebook appeared in the hands of the association leader.
One could imagine the outcome.
While flipping through, Wu Heng noticed the recorded content was quite rich, but it wasn't much help to him, since he was already level 19, and the owner of the notebook probably hadn't even reached level 18.
However, there were some helpful records of the rituals needed for summoning Ghosts.
In the last Necromancer's notebook, the recorded ritual hadn't been fully used on his Ghosts yet.
He should collect the materials.
To add the previous ritual to a few Ghosts.
After finishing the notebook.
Wu Heng put it into the Space Ring, then took paper and pen to jot down the materials needed for the rituals.
“How about it? Any gains?” Glenda floated at his side and asked.
Bella also flew over, waiting for his answer.
“The Skill Book is the one where Lilith seals people's mouths. I've learned it now. The other is the notes of the Necromancer, what's useful is some Ghost rituals, we can try them when we have time,” Wu Heng straightforwardly said.
Glenda raised an eyebrow, “I didn't expect that Lilith is quite good to you. In dealing with women, you do have some skills.”
Bella also smiled and nodded in agreement, “In Black Stone Town, he was quite popular with the ladies.”
“What are you talking about, I also gave her quite a few things, and that's not called dealing with women, it's outstanding people attracting each other,” Wu Heng defended himself.
“Whatever you say,” Glenda shrugged.
Creak~!
At this moment, the door opened.
Xiao Xiao bounced into the room, then spun around on the spot, “How is it?”
“Looks good!” Wu Heng said with a smile.
“It suits you very well, Xiao Xiao.”
“Great, in the future, I want a body like this too.”
Faced with the many compliments, Xiao Xiao became even happier, running around the room in her little rounded-toe leather shoes.
“What did you talk to Lilith about?” Wu Heng asked.
“We talked about puppets. She said the puppet maker is a Deceit Puppet Master from the headquarters, with a very strange temperament. Even sister Lilith doesn't like to go, she'd want to hit him if she did,” Xiao Xiao waved her fists.
“People with talents often have distinct personalities,” Glenda said with a smile, then added, “Perhaps in his heart, he thinks that if he had the lifespan or background of those leaders, his achievements would be higher.”
“I don't quite understand,” Xiao Xiao scratched her head, then looked directly at Wu Heng, “Uncle, I want two new dresses.”
“Let Mini call the Skeleton Tailor over, we have our own clothing factory.”
“Okay, I'll go find Sister Mini.” Xiao Xiao opened the door, then pitter-pattered down the stairs.
Glenda said with a smile, “Children, they are such a delight.”
“Mm!”
At the headquarters of the council, in the meeting hall.
The door opened, and Lilith, wearing a long purple dress, strode in.
After finishing the chat with Xiao Xiao,
She had received a reminder from the butler that she was due at the council meeting.
And in the bright room, the other three Leaders had been waiting for some time.
Once Lilith took her seat, the Field Envoy Leader spoke directly, “The reason for calling you here is still regarding the matter of Gold and Silver Island. The local association there sent a report, mentioning the conflict between The Holy Court and the island.”
With that said, he passed the letters around for everyone to review.
After reading the contents of the letters, aside from Lilith, the other two also furrowed their brows.
There had been an abundance of letters and reports about Gold and Silver Island recently.
Either complaints about the sale of alchemical tablets from various alchemical organizations or reports from the local association.
Meetings concerning Gold and Silver Island were becoming frequent.
After everyone had finished reading,
The Hongwen Association Leader said, “An 18th-level Church Knight suddenly attacking a Mage, and later claiming it was just to test the Mage's abilities, seems quite far-fetched.”
The Hunter Leader, a Dwarf, then said, “I'm more curious about Wu Heng. Didn't he say he was 15th-level when he defeated Lu An last time? How did he defeat the Knight, and even managed to detain him?”
“The report mentions he has high-level Skeletons. After several major battles on Gold and Silver Island, he probably transformed a few 18th-level Skeleton corpses,” speculated the leader of the Hongwen Association.
The Field Envoy Leader casually retrieved the letter and then asked, “With The Holy Court involved, what are your thoughts?”
The Hunter Leader suggested, “Give The Holy Court a warning. Just release the person; after all, Saidu is still handling affairs in Yeko Kingdom. Capturing someone might stir up unnecessary emotions.”
The Hongwen Association Leader stroked his beard, “The Holy Court strikes first and we should worry about their feelings? That rationale seems hardly justifiable.”
“Make them apologize and give some compensation to Wu Heng; letting the matter escalate will only worsen the situation for Gold and Silver Island,” said the Hunter Leader, feeling somewhat helpless.
He wasn't siding with The Holy Court, but that was the situation.
The Holy Court had great influence and a solid foundation; targeting Gold and Silver Island would only create more trouble.
With that, the Hongwen Association Leader no longer spoke up.
The Field Envoy Leader looked across, “Lilith, what's your opinion?”
Lilith adjusted her dress and said, “The Holy Court establishing a Church on Gold and Silver Island is basically looking for trouble. Either Gold and Silver Island ends up belonging to The Holy Court, or conflicts with Wu Heng are inevitable. I'm sure you all are aware of the value that the island is generating now.”
This statement opened up the discussion.
Now, Gold and Silver Island just like its name, showed an insane ability to accumulate wealth.
The Holy Court had set its sights here; even if there weren't issues now, conflicts would inevitably surface again.
“What's your suggestion?” the Field Envoy Leader continued.
Lilith replied, “Let's follow the association's procedures, but allow Wu Heng to do them a favor, to prevent things from getting too ugly.”
The others were taken aback.
The Field Envoy Leader nodded, “I think that's reasonable.”
The Hunter Leader added, “I have no objections.”
The Hongwen Association Leader gripped his staff and added, “I agree with this idea, but we also need to remind the Church in the name of the association that such incidents are unacceptable.”
“Alright, I'll relay the decision to Gold and Silver Island. Claudio, as the leader of the Hongwen Association, write a letter to Wu Heng, advising him to resolve the matter appropriately,” said the Field Envoy Leader.
The Hongwen Association Leader nodded, “Can do.”
“Then let's go prepare.”
With the matter resolved, the group stood and left the room.
On Gold and Silver Island.
After dinner.
Outside, Xiao Xiao and Mini were kicking a shuttlecock, and laughter filled the air.
Inside the room, Wu Heng listened to the general plan proposed by Shanaela.
Then Shanaela asked, “The whole plan requires many Array Pattern buildings, where do you plan to find the Array Pattern Masters?”
“Order from the Snake Badge Consortium? Spending some money isn't a problem,” Wu Heng said.
Previously, all the Array Pattern buildings were ordered from the Snake Badge Consortium; other than spending money, he didn't have to worry about anything else.
“For indoor constructions, you'll still need to visit the site for measurements. If you don't have suitable candidates, perhaps you can get some Array Pattern Masters from the Wood Elves,” suggested Shanaela, leaning back.
“Can you arrange for that?”
Shanaela smiled, “I am now an Elder, after all.”
