Chapter 785: Chapter 635, please join us. Chapter 785: Chapter 635, please join us. It's her!

The little rich lady with whom he exchanged Special Items.

The last time Wu Heng visited, the tavern had already been sealed off, otherwise Wu Heng would have liked to continue the exchange with her.

Unfortunately, he hadn't left any contact information at the time.

But he didn't expect that she would find her way here directly.

Wu Heng had also inquired about her identity through the association and guessed she was a princess from the Yeko Kingdom.

But it had been a while, and he couldn't remember her name, unsure if it was the same one she had just mentioned.

Wu Heng didn't hide anything and said with a smile, “Hello, this time we meet in our true forms.”

Princess Brittany spoke solemnly, “Lord Island Master, I am the Fifth Princess of the Yeko Kingdom. I am here to kindly ask for your help with a matter.”

She was indeed a princess.

Without much expression, Wu Heng asked, “What is it?”

“Lord Island Master, please help me reclaim the Yeko Kingdom and join my team,” Brittany said earnestly, with a heroic look in her eyes.

Wu Heng's brow furrowed instantly.

After staring at her for a good while, he then asked, “You… how do you plan to have my help?”

“I need my own base, with your abilities, you most certainly can become my most reliable force. As long as I regain the Yeko Kingdom, I will give you everything you want,” Brittany said with some excitement before adding, “You've also lived in the Yeko Kingdom. You surely don't wish for it to remain in its current state either.”

Wu Heng looked at her, feeling that this young girl had read too many heroic tales.

Moreover, he had no particular affection for the Yeko Kingdom, he had even gone to Lundham City to escape from there.

“Who is the enemy?”

“My eldest and second brothers!”

“Are the two of them in this together?” Wu Heng followed up.

“No, they are competing for the throne. The current state of the kingdom is a result of officials and generals supporting different individuals,” Brittany replied.

“By joining in, wouldn't that make things even more chaotic?”

Brittany spoke passionately, “No, they don't deserve to sit on the throne, not worthy of the people's reverence. They conspired with outsiders, they killed our father, and many ministers. I have to take back all of that.”

From her words, Wu Heng gathered some information about the state of the Yeko Kingdom.

It meant that the current competition for the throne within the kingdom was only between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, both supported by different factions.

Now it was a matter of who would take the final seat.

And 'Brittany,' the Fifth Princess, was clearly not satisfied with these two and was thinking of forming her own team.

Wu Heng had previously sold her elixirs, which made her believe he was a highly ranked Pharmacist.

To gain his support, whether it be elixirs, funds, or fame–a renowned Pharmacist would not be lacking any of these.

Now that she knew he was the one who had exchanged elixirs with her at the exhibition, she was even more eager to have his help.

“How many people do you have now?”

Brittany's expression froze slightly, “Including you, three. But I will continue to search for and invite reliable companions.”

Damn, with just three people she wants to fight for the throne?

How is that different from a fisherman boasting in a tavern after too many drinks?

Wu Heng hesitated for a moment and gently reminded, “Princess Brittany, I appreciate your recognition, but you should know that I am an Island Master appointed by the association, the Flag-bearer of the Emerald Sea.”

Brittany nodded.

Wu Heng continued, “The association is not allowed to interfere or change local governance or political power in any form.”

Brittany responded, “I know. I have my reasons. They have received support from an Evil Cult. What you're talking about is under normal circumstances, but when it involves an Evil Cult and local safety, some special actions can be taken.”

“Where's the evidence? Let me see it,” Wu Heng asked, looking at her.

Brittany's face showed some agitation, “I don't have it yet, but it can definitely be found upon investigation.”

“Princess, the association doesn't have a policy of acting first and reporting later,” Wu Heng thought for a moment, then added, “I will report this to the headquarters, and have the local association within the kingdom pay attention to this matter.”

Brittany furrowed her brows and thought for a moment. With her current number of allies, she really couldn't do much, and it would be good to have the association investigate this matter as well.

“Thank you, but don't mention I'm here, many people are looking for me.”

“Okay,” Wu Heng agreed.

“If the association finds evidence of the Evil Cult, will you join my team?” Brittany looked up and asked again.

Wu Heng shook his head, “No, but as long as you are on Gold and Silver Island, I can guarantee your safety for one day.”

Brittany appeared somewhat disheartened and hesitated several times before finally speaking.

“I will convince you,” she said.

Wu Heng did not say much.

Brittany put her hood back on and then turned around and left directly.

After the other party had left, Wu Heng also concealed his face and left City Hall.

Stepping out of City Hall.

The entire Central District was still bustling.

Far away, there was still a long queue at the place where pens were being sold.

Nearby, many people were watching, and some were carrying shoulder poles, selling fruits to those in line.

Ever since the number of wealthy merchants on the island had increased, the local residents had also indirectly made some money.

At least the pubs and inns were all filled with people.

Wu Heng glanced over, confirmed that there were no problems, and that everything was being done in proper order for purchasing goods, so he then proceeded to the association.

Xi Ligui was not at the association, so Wu Heng went to the front desk instead.

He bought two Mechanist's Professional Scrolls and asked the person to order some more.

Then, taking a carriage, he headed to Lighthouse Street.

He bought a grey-feathered juvenile owl at the Beast Taming Shop and then got back on the carriage.

He returned to the Island Lord's Mansion.

“Master, how well are the pens selling?” Mini helped him take off his coat.

Robey took the cage from the skeleton attendant's hands and placed it aside.

Annette brought some cool tea.

“There was quite a long line. If you're bored at home, you can also go out and take a look around,” Wu Heng said, sitting down on the sofa and taking a sip of the cool tea.

“There are so many people outside, I don't really want to go out,” Mini said.

The other two also nodded in agreement.

“It's up to you,” Wu Heng put down his tea cup and continued, “Mini, what level are you guys now?”

“I think I've reached level 8, but I haven't tested for a long time,” Mini answered.

“Go upstairs and bring down the Level Crystal so you can all test,” Wu Heng said.

“Okay!” Mini said, “Robey, go to Sister Veera's room and get the Level Crystal.”

Robey ran upstairs quickly and then came running down with a crystal clear Crystal Stone, handing it to Wu Heng, “For you, Master.”

“Who wants to test first?” Wu Heng placed it on the table.

“I'll go first!” Mini picked it up and concentrated, then the Crystal Stone lit up tier by tier.

Eventually, it stopped at the level 9 mark.

“I'm level 9 now, yay!” Mini cheered, jumping for joy.

Next was Robey, he took a deep breath and began to grip the Crystal Stone tightly.

The level continued to rise until it stopped at level 6.

Last was Annette, who carefully took it and only reached level 3.

“I'm sorry, Master, for being the lowest level.”

Wu Heng patted her little head, “It's normal for you to be a bit lower, since you changed professions last.”

“I'll try even harder,” she replied.

“Even if you don't, I'll still support you for a lifetime,” Wu Heng said.

Annette's cheeks turned even redder, and she quietly moved a bit closer, saying softly with a hint of shyness, “Thank you, Master.”

As dusk neared, Andre Willow hurried back.

With a wave of her Space Ring, twenty wooden chests filled with silver coins appeared in the middle of the yard.

“Master, a total of 7,300 pens were sold, here are today's 182,500 silver coins,” she announced.
