Chapter 794: Chapter 644, What Gift Chapter 794: Chapter 644, What Gift Shh~!
A heavy friction sound arose.
The tightly closed coffin lid was gradually opened and fell onto the carpet with a thud.
Cadaverous fingers gripped the edge of the coffin, slowly sitting up emerged a figure.
Brown hair fell over shoulders, the face finely chiseled, exquisitely beautiful, eyebrows slightly arched, beneath them a pair of blood-red eyes.
The skin was pale as snow, as delicate as porcelain, glossy.
Dressed in a black turtleneck dress, the collar and breast adorned with exquisite red embroidery.
Roses and thorns among other patterns could faintly be distinguished.
Blood Clan Leader, Association Hero, Secret Speaker Leader–Lilith Ann Beshmte.
Lilith sighed softly, her voice clear and cold, “What does he want now?”
The butler stepped forward, presenting a chic black gift box, repeating his earlier words, “Island Lord Wu Heng has sent you a gift, along with the latest newspaper.”
A gift?
Lilith turned her head to look, extending her slender, pale hands to receive it in front of her.
She twisted her head gently, casually undoing the ribbon on the gift box.
As a leader of a race, who had also ascended to the rank of hero.
What hadn't she seen?
Let alone a gift from a minor place like Gold and Silver Island.
Yet, she was somewhat curious about what Wu Heng would send her.
The ribbon came undone, and the gift box opened to either side.
Simultaneously, the contents inside appeared before her eyes.
To her left was a book, finely bound, its cover featuring a black-haired, black-eyed man, titled “Great Detective Collection One.”
No need to mention, it was the serialized story from the newspaper.
Lilith viewed the cover image, her lips curling slightly, “Such a narcissistic fellow.”
The second item was a long cylindrical object, the third a round disk adorned with a leather strap.
The disk, detailed with numbers, emitted small clicking sounds.
Lilith picked it up for a closer look, “A trivial plaything.”
The butler, observing subtly, took the opportunity to remind softly, “Miss, the last two items are the newest products from Gold and Silver Island, as recorded in the accompanying newspaper.”
“What products?” Lilith queried impatiently.
“From Gold and Silver Island, the first one is called a fountain pen, which can replace the traditional feather quill for ink-dipping, and the second is called a wristwatch, worn on the wrist for precise timekeeping,” murmured the butler, then glanced once more before adding, “The ones given to you are obviously better, more precious.”
Lilith's eyebrows twitched slightly.
Upon hearing this brief description, she already comprehended the two items' functions.
A newly appointed Mage managed to craft these?
Was he really that smart?
The butler spoke again, “According to the newspaper, Gold and Silver Island also created an elixir that could directly enhance physical attributes.”
Lilith's gaze sharpened.
“The newspaper, let me see it.”
At the Association Training Grounds.
The elf Moya stepped briskly into the training area, Imilo sheathing his sword, also stepped forward.
Moya said, “Wu Heng has sent you a gift.”
“A gift?” Imilo's expression remained unchanged, “He should focus on improving.”
“Please take a look first, it's actually quite good,” Moya said, handing over the gift box.
As Moya lifted it, Imilo noticed a peculiar object on Moya's wrist.
Imilo took the gift box, opened it, and looked at the three items inside.
Moya explained with a smile, “Wu Heng's novel, the second item is a fountain pen, and also a wristwatch. The newspaper reports that they are selling well and are hot commodities in various trade associations.”
As he demonstrated how the two items worked and adjusted the wristwatch, Imilo, astonished by the items, expressed, “He indeed has some talent.”
“The newspaper also mentioned an elixir that seems even more powerful,” Moya handed the newspaper to him.
In the Hall of Glory.
Passersby casually picked up newspapers at the front desk, perusing the content.
Since the incident with Lu An, Gold and Silver Island had been sending a batch over, distributing it here for free.
“Gold and Silver Island is holding an expo, 300 trade associations are participating.”
“They must be exaggerating, where did they find so many trade associations?”
“The fountain pens and wristwatches mentioned here sound quite interesting, Lu An lost to them, it's not undeserved.”
“Gold and Silver Island is making moves so frequently, could they be preparing for level 18?”
“Isn't it too soon, he joined the Association less than a year ago.”
“Soon? Lu An is level 15, this kid must also be above level 15.”
“So true.”
Another person said, “Didn't you see the third item mentioned above? An elixir, certified by associations and consortiums, that can enhance physical attributes.”
The others looked back at the newspaper.
“Really, he developed it?”
“How can there be such an elixir?”
“The newspaper says there will be an auction on Gold and Silver Island.”
“Excuse me, I need to go prepare to visit Gold and Silver Island.”
“I'm heading back too, I won't keep you all.”
Saying this, the crowd dispersed in confusion.
Hongwen Alliance, research tower.
An elder, looking at the newspaper, ordered, “Go to Gold and Silver Island and arrange some courses for the local association, and take a look at the launch of this elixir.”
“Yes, leader,” Hongwen Alliance's 'Virgil' nodded in response.
“Oh, and on your way back, buy some pens and watches; these items are just right for us.”
“Yes!”
Virgil nodded again, confirming no more matters were pending.
He then left the room.
“Teacher, do we have any options left?” Lu An asked, his expression crestfallen.
After finishing the newspaper, Mo Fa Te casually set it aside.
He closed his eyes and mused for a moment before saying, “I'll write a letter; you take it to the chieftain of the Blood Clan's 'Bardley' family. Remember, this must be secretive, no one should find out, especially be careful of the Secret Speakers.”
Lu An's gaze sharpened, and he nodded.
Zombie World, conference room.
Wu Heng looked at the location marked on the map by the other party, an area to the east of Sanfu Port that was not drafted on the map.
It must be a confidential port.
The Korean Navy said, “I am not sure about the situation there, but past ships and maintenance were performed there.”
Wu Heng looked at Qi Hancai, “Put away the map, we'll take a trip there tomorrow.”
Qi Hancai nodded.
Wu Heng then looked at the two opposite, “You two will accompany us there as well.”
The two were startled, abruptly lifted their heads to speak, but seeing Wu Heng's gaze, they choked back their words and then nodded, indicating agreement.
“Alright, you two may leave now.”
The two bowed again and promptly left the room.
In the room, only Wu Heng and Qi Hancai remained.
Qi Hancai stood up and leaned over, “There are no problems at the military factory, right?”
Wu Heng wrapped his arms around the other's waist, “It's the same old, I have set up the development plans for later, just follow this direction.”
“And sister Yahong? She must have pestered you quite a few times, right?”
Wu Heng playfully tapped the other's upturned buttocks, “She only stayed for one night, thinking everyone is like you, huh.”
“Not at all,” Qi Hancai cooed softly.
Wu Heng continued, “Assign some tasks to Zhao Yanqiu, nothing too difficult, just manage some matters.”
If it were another woman, Qi Hancai might have some doubts.
Zhao Yanqiu was different, without many thoughts in that regard.
It's not to say Zhao Yanqiu wasn't good-looking; on the contrary, her appearance was quite pleasing, giving off a gentle ladylike air.
But also knowing that Zhao Yanqiu was Xiao Xiao's mother.
Xiao Xiao, a base member often mentioned, yet one whom Qi Hancai had never met.
“Let her take charge of logistics management, just like the old factory in Xinfu City, the job isn't stressful, arranging for our trusted people makes it also safer,” Qi Hancai suggested after a slight consideration.
“Alright, let's arrange it that way for now!”
After chatting for a while, Qi Hancai had people bring over the gold, silver, and corpse cores they had scavenged during this time.
Wu Heng stored them in the Space Ring.
He then returned to his bedroom, opened the boundary door, and went back to the Otherworld.
Island Lord's Mansion.
Wu Heng delivered the corpse core to the Alchemist's room and casually opened the nearby refrigerated freezer to take a look.
Inside were neatly arranged corpse core potions.
The other freezers and constant temperature storage boxes were also filled with elixirs.
Though not counted, the number must have also reached thousands.
With the number of evolved zombies increasing in the Zombie World, the quantity of Level 1 corpse cores was also increasing.
