Lilith's brows raised inquisitively.
While everyone else was concerned about The Holy Court's retaliation, he was now fixating on 'Saidu.'
She shook her head and said, “I'm just speculating. Whether there is a connection between the two, nobody can say for sure. Besides, this kind of thing should be known in your heart, not spread outside carelessly.”
“I'll only ask privately, how could I go around talking carelessly about it?” Wu Heng earnestly replied, indicating he knew what should and shouldn't be said.
Lilith didn't respond but appeared to be pondering the words Wu Heng had just spoken.
Given their races and professions–
The Blood Clan, in the eyes of The Holy Court, weren't exactly seen as a righteous race.
Thus, neither had a favorable impression of The Holy Court and could make some comments about it in private.
Moreover, whether the Pope and the Religious Hero were the same person was something Lilith was likely more eager to delve into.
After all, she was in charge of intelligence, and being a woman, she tended to be curious about secrets.
After a silence of a few seconds, Lilith continued, “Once Saidu gets the message, he'll certainly rush back here, and then we'll see what happens when he arrives.”
Wu Heng pressed, “Will he come directly to Gold and Silver Island?”
“You're a hero now too, I guess he wouldn't dare. And I'm here, after all!” Lilith answered directly.
Wu Heng now possessed the means to kill his adversaries.
Naturally, he wouldn't dare to arrive on the island with just a few people as he did initially.
If one could kill the Pope, they might be able to kill him too.
And Lilith was here as well; it was even more likely he wouldn't, and wouldn't dare to come.
“I knew you, the Leader, would help me,” said Wu Heng, flatteringly. He then inquired, “How will he return? By boat or something?”
Lilith frowned, looking at him with questioning eyes, “What do you need this information for? The headquarters will handle this matter; don't create more trouble.”
“How could I! I was just asking casually. If he's taking a boat, I'll arrange an escort to prevent any mishaps in the Emerald Sea from being blamed on me.” Wu Heng averted her gaze, explaining.
If he was taking a boat back, Wu Heng would certainly give him a taste of the Electromagnetic Cannon.
By now, he had figured out a preliminary method to kill a hero.
First hit him with an Electromagnetic Cannon. Once his body recovered, use the Teleportation Technique, and then leverage the hero's Strength to finish him.
The range of the Electromagnetic Cannon also allowed avoiding a head-on fight.
Of course, this was a plan to be kept to oneself, not to be spoken out loud.
Lilith gave him a sideways glance, with a skeptical “I trust you, sure…” and muttered, “Child…”
Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, not quite understanding why she had said that.
Plus, with her daily appearance resembling a little loli and getting along so well with Xiao Xiao, who was the real child here?
Wu Heng didn't continue the topic of The Holy Court, having already made casual conversation, and went on to ask, “Leader, where do I learn new skills after becoming a hero? I'm a bit lacking in skills!”
“Have you learned from the Skill Book I gave you yet?” Lilith asked, looking at him.
The Skill Book had been unlocked, but he was learning at a rather rapid rate that he couldn't reveal.
So he simply said, “Still looking at it. Are there any Necromancer skills?”
“You…” Lilith didn't know what to say.
Clueless and unwitting, but advancing in levels rapidly.
Where did such a person come from?
“The Association doesn't have any cases of Necromancers becoming heroes. Whether there are hero-level skill books, I'm not sure. I'll keep an eye out for you when I'm back at headquarters,” Lilith replied.
“Keep an eye out for other factions' higher-level skills too; I'm eager to improve.”
“I got it…” Lilith replied with slight irritation.
She glanced outside, noticing it was getting late.
Standing up, she said, “Alright, I'm heading back, I still have to check out the new residence tomorrow.”
“Wouldn't you stay for a movie? I had the chef prepare snacks,” Wu Heng said, trying to get her to stay.
“Maybe tomorrow,” Lilith said, and started walking out.
Wu Heng didn't insist further, escorting her to her quarters before saying, “Leader, rest well and come again tomorrow.”
Lilith nodded and went straight back to her residence.
Lilith returned to the mansion.
She sat in her bedroom, waiting for a while. The air rippled, and out flew the six-eyed raven from the void.
Landing on the table, its six greasy green eyes scrutinized her before beginning to mimic speech, “At the Leader's meeting, it was discussed that Claudio will go to The Holy Court. You will conduct an on-site investigation to clarify the entire matter thoroughly and record it in complete detail. The headquarters will proceed with the normal handling process.”
After finishing speaking, the crow's body stiffened, reverting to a mummified corpse and collapsing onto the table.
Lilith packed the raven's body away in an embroidered box.
She continued to sit in her chair, pondering the matter.
Judging by the attitude from the headquarters, it seemed there was no intention to favor The Holy Court.
Claudio being the Hongwen Association Leader, and Wu Heng being formally approved by said Leader to join the Hongwen Alliance, arranging for Claudio's visit to The Holy Court suggested some inclination.
But this was only the current situation. Whether anything would change upon the return of the Religious Hero 'Saidu,' was uncertain.
Having served as a Leader for such an extensive time, Lilith understood well the principles by which the headquarters handled matters.
The Holy Court was not in the right for this entire incident, coupled with Wu Heng's rising discussions at the headquarters.
Especially since he had converted the Elixir into a pill form, slashing the price and spreading it among various nations and races.
Now with the news of his becoming a hero, it would undoubtedly cause even more attention.
For such a case, if the Association were to side with the powerful Holy Court, it could easily lose the image of fairness it had maintained for many years.
