Chapter 648: Chapter 527, Ferocious Ghost (One chapter today, 5000 words)._2 Chapter 648: Chapter 527, Ferocious Ghost (One chapter today, 5000 words)._2 “Find someone to copy it, or perhaps have your skeletons do the copying.” Xi Ligui shrugged, indicating it was up to you now.
“Alright, I've got it.” Wu Heng took it directly.
It was nothing more than taking it back for photocopying, not a troublesome matter at all.
Xi Ligui continued, “The corpse of the Blood Clan has been transported back to headquarters. The Blood Clan has responded, saying that the person was a criminal exiled by the Blood Clan for bloodthirsty killings and violating living beings, punished and exiled by Leader Lilith. They were never supposed to see the light of day again, but those from the Heaven Destiny Cult dug them up.”
Punishment and exile?
The Blood Clan's exile meant being sealed in a coffin and sunk to the bottom of the sea or buried deep in the mountains.
They don't kill you outright, but let you experience loneliness and endless darkness over the long years.
It's somewhat similar to life imprisonment in the modern world.
Speaking of punishment, Wu Heng remembered the genderless body structure of the Blood Clan they encountered earlier.
They confiscated the “tools of the crime.”
What a terrifying tactic.
“Did they mention any rewards for us?” Wu Heng asked.
After all, killing an 18th-level professional and rescuing some villagers who were almost sacrificed was certainly meritorious.
Xi Ligui nodded, “I feel they will calculate the merit for us in response, and we'll see the situation then.”
“What about the Heaven Destiny Cult? Any new news?”
“The association has updated the wanted notice, but since the Heaven Destiny Cult is a new church, the identities of the bishop and key members are still unclear. Right now, we're in the intelligence-gathering stage.” Xi Ligui rested her chin on her arms and spoke softly.
“Well, we've done all we can. There's not much else we can do.”
“Just wait for the news.”
Having discussed the main issues,
Wu Heng continued, “There haven't been any problems with the patrols and security on the island, right?”
“No problems! We can guarantee the safety of the basic areas.”
“What do you think about opening a tourist resort beach for others to enjoy?” Wu Heng said offhandedly.
“A beach? For what kind of activities?”
“Like swimming, or sunbathing. There are quite a few people from the trade caravans on the island; it might attract them too.”
Xi Ligui thought for a moment, “I don't know, not sure if it will have the effect you're talking about.”
“I'll have someone tidy up a section first and take you to see it. Experience it yourself first.”
Xi Ligui smiled, “Sure, I'd like to see how it differs from regular swimming.”
The two chatted for a while.
When a team member came to report on some matters, Wu Heng left the study and the association.
He went back to his place.
He had lunch with the maids.
After resting for a while, he went back upstairs and headed to Zombie World.
He waited in the dorm for a while.
Footsteps approached from outside the door, followed by knocks.
“Come in!”
The door opened, and Qi Hancai entered with Wang Haibing.
Wang Haibing stepped forward and reported, “Leader, inspections have been done at several bases. There aren't any major issues with the power plants; they can restore electricity like replacing boilers. Xinfu City's base is a bit more complex; some lines need to be realigned.”
Wu Heng looked at him, noting that he looked much better after a few days.
Though his hair was still disheveled, he had definitely put on some weight.
With a proper food supply, it was easy to gain weight.
“Are the blueprints ready?”
“Here they are,” Wang Haibing pulled out the blueprints from his jacket.
There were three power plants, and three different sizes of furnaces were outlined. They would replace the fuel to provide thermal energy.
Wu Heng put away the blueprints, “The rerouting, let you take charge. Get it done as soon as possible, so others can have access to electricity freely.”
“Got it, I'll go back tomorrow and get the lines rearranged ahead of time,” Wang Haibing said.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Heng asked, “The skeletons you've been tasked with, have they been effective?”
“They are still learning. They've almost mastered some basic knowledge, and are still learning about operating and maintaining the power plant. These skeletons… the gentlemen are quite capable learners; they should be able to master it quickly.”
“Hurry up, we need to train a group before restoring power in other bases.”
“Yes, I know!” Wang Haibing wiped his sweat.
“Go and take care of it; you'll have an easier job than others once it's done right.”
“Yes, I'll do my best.”
Wang Haibing saluted the two of them, then turned and left to tend to his own tasks.
After Wang Haibing left,
Only the two of them remain in the room.
Wu Heng glanced at Qi Hancai.
Today she wore a white down jacket, a gray turtleneck sweater, and tight jeans that complimented her silhouette well.
Wu Heng patted his thigh, and Qi Hancai, with her head lowered, came over and sat sideways on his leg.
Wu Heng wrapped an arm around her waist and asked, “How's it going at the control tower?”
Several days had passed since they had taken control of the airport, yet the blueprints were still not completed.
Wu Heng was somewhat anxious about this.
Qi Hancai answered softly, “I contacted them yesterday, they'll be done in the next couple of days, and then they'll arrange for a plane to send them over to us.”
Wu Heng was pleased to hear this news.
It meant that in a few days, they would have the complete blueprints.
Construction work on Gold and Silver Island and Lundham City could then begin.
“You've done well.”
Qi Hancai smiled lightly, acknowledging with a hum.
Wu Heng hugged her closer, “There should be equipment to make copies at the factory, right?”
“There is, do you need to copy something?”
Wu Heng continued, presenting the 'Association Handbook' he had received from Xi Ligui, “Copy all of this for me, make sure it's clear, just regular paper is fine.”
