Chapter 1100: Chapter 862, Another Leader Meeting Chapter 1100: Chapter 862, Another Leader Meeting Wu Heng's eyes narrowed.
That key, at this moment, appeared particularly conspicuous.
An indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
He stepped forward and looked up carefully at the painted key in the mural, which was very similar to his own Bronze Key but had a clearly different handle design.
This made Wu Heng somewhat uncertain whether the details in the painting were not fully represented, or if it was simply two different keys.
After all, the designs of keys in this world were all quite similar, with little variation between each one.
Wu Heng took out his cell phone and snapped a photo.
When there's a chance, he would find a knowledgeable person to ask.
He couldn't ask too obviously; the Bronze Key was his biggest secret.
After looking around here.
Wu Heng passed through the building to head to the backyard.
As soon as he stepped into the backyard, he saw the copper bell hanging in the center.
He walked over quickly.
Sure enough, an item description appeared.
[Holy Bell (Special Item)]
[Effect: Dispel negative statuses, effective against Necromancy and corrupt evil.]
[Side Effect: Devout repentance.]
(Description: The Holy Bell rings daily, expelling evil and averting disaster.)
Every day the church rings the bell, and any passing Skeletons are affected.
Trembling, dazed, the lower the Skeleton's level, the more severe the effect.
No need to say, it was this copper bell.
From the effects of the Special Item, it indeed benefits living creatures, able to dispel negative effects and also suppress Necromancy and corrupt evil.
But it truly wasn't suitable for a place like Gold and Silver Island.
Ringing the bell affected the Skeletons, and ringing such a copper bell on Gold and Silver Island was also kind of provocative.
He would see where it could be used later.
After casually storing the copper bell, Wu Heng continued to roam around the church.
The local clergy thought yesterday they were just there to meet The Holy Court's fleet and had no plans to leave.
In the rooms, you could also see daily necessities, along with some scrolls and money.
These church members were quite wealthy, as he randomly found more than ten Gold Coins and several hundred silver coins.
After confirming there were no other valuable items.
“Watch this place closely, also keep an eye on the stuff inside,” Wu Heng told the Skeletons.
The Skeletons dispersed, guarding the entire church.
Now that things with The Holy Court had escalated to this, the local church definitely wouldn't allow him to continue.
As for what to do with this location afterward.
Wu Heng's initial idea was to promote his own faith, especially since the Level 20 panel update, and without the need for Experience Value and prestige, a 'faith' requirement appeared.
Based on the description of faith and his understanding, he likely needed a church.
If he had known, he should have made up a story of Divine Spirits' reincarnation from the start instead of picking the Great Detective, maybe it could directly translate into some faith.
After organizing the church.
Wu Heng cast [Teleportation Technique], the Array formed in the blink of an eye, and his body disappeared.
Leader Mansion.
Lilith, in her loli form, sat on a chair, her gaze drifting, blankly staring ahead.
This trip to the island had shocked her greatly.
Wu Heng had become a hero overnight, a human hero in his twenties…
And he had killed the Pope.
Even now, thinking about it, her heart still stirred waves of shock.
Recalling the last time he inquired about heroes.
She had thought he was being overly ambitious, advising him to strive to reach Level 18 first.
By that time, he was probably already preparing to become a hero.
The story of the Great Detective, the instruction sheet inside the medicine box.
Now thinking about it, everything made sense.
“She really fooled everyone,” Lilith muttered.
It's actually not strange to others.
Both the headquarters' hero and The Holy Court's Pope knew Wu Heng had extraordinary talent and leveled up fast.
But no one would have imagined he could become a hero in less than two years.
Otherwise, what would those centuries-old races be?
What about the professionals stuck at Level 18?
But it all just happened and completely overturned her understanding of leveling up.
“Ah~!” Lilith sighed heavily, “I don't know if this is a good or bad thing.”
The Pope is dead, The Holy Court will definitely not let it go.
She just hoped that this matter would not evolve into an uncontrollable situation.
Moreover, Wu Heng's ability to kill the Pope surprised many, and also evoked a hint of apprehension.
Regaining her composure.
Lilith took out an exquisitely crafted velvet box and placed it on the wooden table.
Upon opening the lid, a black crow lay inside, its shriveled body appearing long dead.
Lilith looked at the crow, her pinky fingernail gently tapping on the tip of her finger.
Piercing the fingertip, she held her finger above the crow.
The first drop of blood fell, and the crow's head opened one eye; as the second drop fell, another eye opened.
The third drop, the fourth drop–six drops of fresh blood in total.
The crow opened all six eyes, flapped its wings, and stood on the table, its green eyes looking at Lilith.
Lilith spoke, “A battle took place on Gold and Silver Island between the Pope and Wu Heng. Wu Heng advanced to hero status, and the Pope perished. I am taking care of Wu Heng's side, you stabilize The Holy Court.”
After speaking, she waved her hand slightly.
The crow flapped its wings and disappeared into the void.
Lilith took a deep breath, then took out a coffin, planning to rest inside.
Outside in the courtyard, there was a knock and a voice called out, “Sister Lilith, are you here?”
“Come in!” Lilith responded.
The gate opened, and a puppet walked in with several skeletons swaggering behind.
“Why didn't you find me when you went to the Island Lord's Mansion?” Xiao Xiao said with some complaints.
Lilith, with an indifferent face, showed a smile, “It's your uncle's fault, too many affairs.”
“I'll scold him when I return,” Xiao Xiao said, hands on hips.
Lilith smiled, her gaze shifting to the item in the skeleton's hand, curiously asking, “What is the skeleton holding?”
Xiao Xiao replied, “These are racing suits and helmets prepared by uncle for you. This is a sound system I found, so you can play some music when you rest in the coffin.”
Lilith smiled warmly, “Xiao Xiao even prepared gifts for me.”
“Of course,” Xiao Xiao said, head held high, “I'll teach you how to use them.”
At the Association headquarters.
The Sword of Justice 'Hadara' was sitting at his desk reviewing documents.
Winter was approaching, and many places required the reallocation of supplies. Some personnel needed to be relocated after the year.
Suddenly, Hadara paused his movements and looked to the side.
Ripples appeared in the air, and a Black Feathered Crow flew out from the void, landing on the desk.
It cocked its head and scrutinized him for several moments.
As if confirming his identity, the crow began mimicking speech, “The Pope and Wu Heng battled on Gold and Silver Island, Wu Heng rose to hero status, the Pope was killed. I am handling Wu Heng's side, you stabilize The Holy Court.”
After delivering the message, the crow stiffened and fell over.
Hadara listened, stunned, his expression one of shock.
Even hearing of Wu Heng's death wouldn't have surprised him, but Wu Heng becoming a hero and the Pope's death?
This … was impossible.
But the message was from Lilith, and she wouldn't fabricate such a thing.
What is going on!
“Someone,” Hadara called out coldly, packing the crow carefully into a Space Ring.
The door opened, and his assistant walked in.
Hadara commanded sternly, “Notify the other leaders to come to the meeting room for a leaders' meeting.”
“Yes!”
In the Steward's Office.
Wu Heng pushed the door open, causing the busy elf sisters to stare in astonishment.
Shi Yali immediately ran up and dove into his arms, “We were so worried about you.”
Xi Ligui also appeared joyful, glancing at her sister who was in his embrace, hesitated momentarily before not rushing forward.
Wu Heng looked at her and gestured.
Xi Ligui shyly approached, burying her head in his other side.
“There, there, I'm fine. You've been worried,” Wu Heng gently patted the sisters' backs, soothing them.
Both women stayed buried in his embrace, not leaving.
Wu Heng pinched Shi Yali's chin, lifting her head; her eyes brimmed with tears, full of deep affection.
Wu Heng tilted his head down and his lips kissed hers, her cool, slippery lips enveloping his, with her little tongue eagerly protruding.
Beside them, Xi Ligui glanced from the corner of her eyes, pinching his waist.
Wu Heng released Shi Yali, lifting Xi Ligui's head.
“Hmph!” Xi Ligui snorted, turning her head away.
Wu Heng turned her head back and kissed her.
After kissing, no resistance was met, only willing involvement.
Shi Yali at the side made tea, softly saying, “All right, have Wu Heng for dinner tonight, do you two really plan to start here?”
Hearing her sister's words, Xi Ligui reluctantly separated.
She playfully hit him, reaching to fasten his open shirt.
Wu Heng sat down on the sofa nearby, Shi Yali directly asked, “Wu Heng, have you become a hero now? And you killed the Pope?”
