Chapter 1130: Chapter 875, It's Not for You to Play With Chapter 1130: Chapter 875, It's Not for You to Play With Xi Ligui said, “The ships that returned to port brought back news, saying that an old-fashioned ship in tatters appeared amidst the fog, and the sailors all believe it's a ghost ship.”
Wu Heng uncertainly asked, “Could it be one of our Gold and Silver Island's ships?”
Hearing about a ghost ship, it always felt like they were talking about my own ships.
Gold and Silver Island's patrol ships, which are all manned by Skeletons, indeed look more like ghost ships when sailing on the sea!
Xi Ligui shook her head, “The ships of Gold and Silver Island all fly flags, and moreover, the type of ship they're talking about is from an earlier period, not the kind like yours.”
Which is to say, they encountered another somewhat unusual ship on the way.
“Does the term 'ghost ship' mean that there are ghosts on it?” Wu Heng looked towards the blonde elf.
Xi Ligui explained, “Not necessarily, it's all rather ambiguous. Apart from ships controlled by Necromancy, sailors also call any ships that are incomprehensible or eerie 'ghost ships'.”
Wu Heng nodded in understanding, then said, “I'll check when I get back. If that ship really exists, I'll have Philippa go take a look.”
As long as that ship is tangible, Philippa's Escort Ship could sink it from a distance.
No big problem.
“Alright, make sure Philippa is careful too,” Xi Ligui instructed.
Squeak~!
While they were speaking, the door opened, and Shi Yali, who had gone to send a letter, returned.
“The letters will be sent out with the ship by noon,” Shi Yali said with a smile, standing to the side.
Wu Heng opened his arms and embraced her shoulders.
Shi Yali then continued to ask, “There shouldn't be any problems with the second batch of the Investigation Team, right?”
Wu Heng looked towards Xi Ligui and asked, “Who is leading the Investigation Team over?”
“We don't know yet. Does it make a difference?”
“No difference really, I'm an open book. Let them investigate as they please; I just fear they might slander me behind my back,” Wu Heng said confidently.
“Slandering you is unlikely, after all, Leader Lilith is still on the island!” Xi Ligui pondered for a moment and then followed up.
Wu Heng also agreed with this point and didn't say much more.
Having finished discussing that matter, the three of them began to chat casually.
Shi Yali complained, “I told Xi Ligui to delegate tasks and spend more time training. She's not listening to me.”
Wu Heng looked towards Xi Ligui and agreed, “I think Shi Yali has a point.”
“When did you two start ganging up on me?”
Shi Yali hugged Wu Heng's waist and said to her sister, “You won't listen to me, nor to Wu Heng? He's a hero now.”
Xi Ligui rolled her eyes at them without amusement, “Fine, I'll do as you say. I'll delegate some tasks and spend the rest to train.”
“Shi Yali needs to train as well, she must reach level 12 within six months,” Wu Heng turned to Shi Yali and seriously stated.
“Ah? How can I level up so quickly, you're going to kill me!” Shi Yali exclaimed in surprise.
Now it was Xi Ligui's turn to show a smile, “What are you shouting for? Aren't you going to listen to Wu Heng? He's a hero.”
“I'm your real sister.”
“Why didn't you think of our sisterhood just now!”
Wu Heng and the two laughed and chatted for a while, then he left the Steward's Office.
After exiting through the rear door of the association building and standing in the courtyard of the Steward Mansion thinking for a moment, he still cast the Teleportation Technique and went to Leader Lilith's mansion.
The Array quickly formed, and Wu Heng's figure appeared in the courtyard.
“Leader Lilith, I've brought you some Elf Race flower tea.”
The door opened, and Lilith's voice came from inside the house, “Come in!”
Walking into the living room, Lilith, in the form of a young girl, came down from upstairs.
Wu Heng placed the prepared flower tea on a cabinet nearby.
Then he sat down on a single-seater sofa, “Is your new mansion not yet decorated?”
Lilith, sitting on a chair, said with a calm tone, “It should be done in a few days.”
“I can have the Skeletons install electrical appliances for you, ensuring that it's even more comfortable than at the headquarters,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
Lilith nodded and didn't refuse.
As a Leader, Lilith certainly doesn't lack resources, but those special items provided by Gold and Silver Island added quite some comfort to life.
Especially air conditioning, electric lights, bathroom showers.
These comforts aren't present at the headquarters' Leader Mansion but are here.
Seeing that she didn't refuse,
Wu Heng steered the conversation towards the purpose of his visit, “Leader, I want to consult you on something.”
“Mhm!” Lilith responded indifferently.
Wu Heng said, “The doll for Xiao Xiao, who made it? Can I order one?”
“I've promised Xiao Xiao to customize different types of dolls for her in due time. You don't need to worry about it,” Lilith answered casually.
It was as if, after a divorce, one snatches the child custody rights, and everything else is none of your concern.
“Then thank you to the Leader on behalf of Xiao Xiao,” Wu Heng continued, “I also have a Ghost, and I was thinking of ordering one for her as well.”
Lilith didn't find it strange.
The fact that Bella was turned into a Ghost was publicly disclosed in the newspaper.
The only doubt Lilith had was about Bella's level; she had been to the Island Lord's Mansion and also lived nearby.
She could only sense Xiao Xiao's presence and had never noticed any other Ghost.
Somewhat curious, does Bella always stay out of sight?
Lilith picked up a teacup and took a sip before saying, “There's a level 19 Deceit Puppet Master in the headquarters, his name is 'Mortimer', a rather quirky character, and he doesn't take orders from outsiders.”
Level 19 Deceit Puppet Master!
When he saw Xiao Xiao's doll, the item information mentioned a description of a Deceit Puppet Master.
Just, he hadn't expected the person to be level 19.
Just one step away from a hero, the toughest step to take.
“He doesn't take orders? I can offer more money,” Wu Heng straightforwardly said.
