Chapter 694: Chapter 562, I will agree to anything you say Chapter 694: Chapter 562, I will agree to anything you say Wu Heng saw a Professional Scroll for the first time and felt it was just like a rolled-up hanging painting.
Qi Hancai directly issued an edict.
“It's called a Professional Scroll. Open it up and give it a try!” Wu Heng said straightforwardly.
Although the plan for the Professional Scroll had been set quite some time ago,
whether it would be effective in this world was still uncertain.
“How should I try it? And does this scroll have any special function?” Qi Hancai picked it up to examine it.
The surface of the Professional Scroll was covered with a layer of embroidered silk.
It looked quite luxurious.
“If it works, it can change your body. If elixirs provide a temporary change, this scroll plans a long-term enhancement for you,” Wu Heng explained.
The biggest feature of the Otherworld is its variety of professions.
As one's level increases, so does one's capabilities.
Everything depends on one's potential and diligence.
“That's amazing!” Qi Hancai's eyes lit up.
A short-term and long-term enhancement – the latter certainly sounded more reliable.
Besides, if it were anyone else claiming that a scroll could improve a person's body, one might think they had been driven mad by the End of the World.
But Qi Hancai did not entertain any doubts when Wu Heng made the claim.
Too many miraculous things had already happened; this was nothing out of the ordinary.
“Hmm, I'll watch over you and see if it works.”
“How do I use it?” Qi Hancai asked.
“Just open up the scroll, and you'll feel a subtle sensation. Don't stress over it.”
“Okay!” Qi Hancai stood up, glanced at Wu Heng, and then tore open the scroll.
The moment it was torn, a beam of light entered her body.
Her entire demeanor and state changed, and her gaze became sharper and more intense.
“How do you feel?” Wu Heng asked.
Qi Hancai looked at her hands, “There seems to be some change, but I can't exactly say where. However, I feel like my vision has improved and my body feels lighter.”
It seemed that the scroll was indeed effective in this world.
“I'll arrange a sparring partner for you later. Stick with the training, and you'll become even more formidable,” Wu Heng said.
“Okay, thank you!” Qi Hancai smiled in gratitude.
Wu Heng had prepared a Ranger Scroll for her, one of the more common scrolls available on the market.
Actually, considering the superpower that Qi Hancai had awakened, she was more suited for the Fist Master profession.
After all, it had enhanced her leg strength, making her kicks and punches even more powerful.
But Wu Heng thought it over and decided not to choose a melee profession for her.
The enemies they faced were zombies, and the danger was not only from being scratched or bitten; getting their blood in one's mouth or eyes could also lead to infection.
It was better to stay back, perhaps handling command or reconnaissance duties.
No need to take unnecessary risks over such matters.
“No need to be formal, we're all family here.”
Qi Hancai smiled, walked slowly towards him, and sat beside him on his leg, “Then I should also thank you.”
Wu Heng wrapped his arm around her waist, “And how would you thank me?”
Qi Hancai's cheeks turned pink, “Whatever you ask, I am willing.”
“Wait until Li Yahong comes over in a few days.”
Qi Hancai's cheeks reddened even more, as she gently leaned into his embrace.
Towards dusk, they returned to the Island Master's Manor.
Descending the stairs.
Several maids came over to greet them.
Mini approached and said, “Master, the 5,000 bow limbs and bowstrings we ordered last time have all been delivered. I had the skeletons move them to the warehouse.”
These were materials for making Compound Bows.
Once the blueprints were ready,
production of the Compound Bows was arranged at two locations by Wu Heng.
The bow limbs and bowstrings were ordered from the Elf Race in the Otherworld, while the remaining parts were produced in Zombie World.
One reason was to prevent the blueprints from being leaked, and the second was that the bow limbs and bowstrings from the Otherworld were of better quality.
“Take me to have a look.”
Wu Heng followed Mini to the warehouse, opened the door, and saw the bow limbs and bowstrings packed in wooden boxes.
After a brief inspection to ensure there were no issues,
he collected them all to be sent to the Zombie World later.
“Master, what would you like for dinner?”
“Anything. Just add more of whatever you all want to eat.”
“Yellowtail Lionfish Soup, a seafood platter, roast beef, and some beef patties!” Mini rattled off her desires.
“Sounds sumptuous enough.”
“Then I'll let the chef know,” Mini said, bouncing off toward the kitchen.
Wu Heng made another trip to Zombie World.
He delivered the bow limbs and bowstrings he had purchased and arranged for staff to assemble them.
At dinner.
Wu Heng said, “Wei'er, are people from the city hall buying newspapers?”
“Someone brought them over. Everyone took turns to glance at them, and they're all discussing your story,” Andre Willow said with a smile.
Wu Heng picked up a piece of crab meat, put it in his mouth, and said, “Tomorrow at the city hall, set up a spot to sell newspapers. It doesn't need to be big, just a metal rack will do.”
Glenda suggested that city hall staff be required to buy the newspapers.
Wu Heng felt it wasn't quite appropriate.
After all, a portion of the intelligence was compiled by the city hall itself.
Having them buy it would turn into a case of self-production and self-sale.
Wu Heng still planned to establish a place in the city hall where residents who came to handle affairs could buy newspapers if they wanted to.
“Okay,” Andre Willow responded.
After dinner.
A few of them went to the training room for exercise.
As night deepened, Wu Heng first checked on Glenda, who was busy writing in the study.
He then returned to his room to rest.
The next day, in Zombie World.
Wu Heng distributed compound bows to the skeleton archers stationed outside.
The original wooden bows were still in use, and these skeleton archers with compound bows were new additions, an expansion of the force.
Wooden bows, compound bows, strong crossbows.
That was the current setup for the skeleton archers.
After the weapons were distributed.
Wu Heng returned to the industrial zone.
From a distance, he saw Qi Hancai and Tiancheng Group's representative, Gao Rong, waiting at the entrance.
As he approached, they greeted him.
Qi Hancai said, “Last night, I talked to Sister Yahong. Because we were using a public channel, I didn't go into too much detail. She will be coming over with some people in the next few days.”
As she finished speaking, her cheeks were slightly flushed.
“Hmm, just pass the word along,” Wu Heng nodded.
Then, Gao Rong stepped forward, “Leader, in the past couple of days, Vice Leader Qi and I have compared the entire map of Yangtong City and divided the city into several areas.”
Wu Heng nodded, “Go on!”
Gao Rong took out a map, on which the basic areas were circled with a red pen.
He said, “Over here are some factories for clothing and hats, many of which were brand OEMs before, so the equipment is certainly more complete. This area is the automobile industry, car assembly, engine manufacturers, and car parts.”
This must have been inspired by the copy of the newspaper from the last time.
Searching for these equipments outside also saved the trouble of research and manufacturing.
Put positively, it freed up time to focus on the development of firearms production.
“Alright, Qi Hancai, prepare the vehicles. Let's go to the clothing factory area first and take it over,” Wu Heng said.
“Okay,” Qi Hancai replied and began issuing orders through the walkie-talkie.
Soon, a convoy and the skeletons assembled at the factory gate.
Wu Heng and Qi Hancai boarded a truck.
Gao Rong, with two technicians, got on a wagon behind them and headed for the clothing factory area according to the map.
Boom boom boom~!
Dense solid iron bullets fell into the horde of zombies, raising thick dust in the streets.
After the bombardment.
The remaining zombies continued to charge forward.
Bodies pierced by spears hung there, still struggling forward; some grabbed the spears, continuously pulling and shoving.
For a moment, blood splattered and rotting flesh flew in all directions.
The sound of flesh being pierced by sharp weapons and bones breaking echoed across the area.
As the zombies died, streaks of remnant souls floated from the ground towards the sky.
“Xiao Xiao, it's your turn. Today they're all yours,” Wu Heng said to the empty air.
“Right on~!” Xiao Xiao replied with enthusiasm and flew out.
She charged towards the remnants souls swirling in the sky.
Glenda had reached Level 18 and was stuck on 'Unfinished Wish.'
The remnant souls present were now all for Xiao Xiao.
As Xiao Xiao absorbed the ghosts.
The system prompt also appeared immediately.
[Ghost leveled up to Level 16, Constitution +2, Agility +1, Perception +1.]
[Ghost leveled up to Level 17, Intelligence +2, Perception +2.]
