Chapter 845: Chapter 681, South Korea National Team (One more update today.)_2 Chapter 845: Chapter 681, South Korea National Team (One more update today.)_2 After finishing, he took out a new Emblem from his Space Ring, as well as a Troop-Support Jade.
The Emblem's pattern was a blood-red moon and a Longsword whose guard was shaped like bat wings.
The materials also seemed to be of a much higher quality.
He had been promoted.
Then, Wu Heng continued to look at the “Troop-Support Jade Talisman.”
This kind of Jade Talisman was a one-time item made by heroes, meant to be crushed in times of danger or crisis to summon a hero's help.
According to Xi Ligui's statement, heroes would give these as rewards to their confidants or subordinates.
But Wu Heng had never used it up to now.
He was unsure of what this assistance meant.
It would be better to receive two Skill Books or some Special Item tools as rewards.
Wu Heng glanced at the other party and said, “Thank you, Leader Lilith, for your trust. It's my honor to serve the Blood Clan and the Leader.”
The Blood Clan across from him smiled and nodded.
Wu Heng continued, “I'd like to inquire about something.”
“Please speak.”
“Do you know about the Hundred Soldiers Set? A Special Item set.”
“I've heard of it.”
“How many pieces are there, and are they all at the Association?” Wu Heng asked curiously.
The Blood Clan furrowed their brows and shook their head, seriously responding, “I'm not sure, I've only heard of the set.”
“Oh, no matter.” Wu Heng said with a smile.
The Blood Clan then stood up and said, “Then, I'll head back to prepare. If you have any commands on the way, you can arrange for us to handle them.”
“Thank you.”
“It's what I should do.” The other party bowed once more and then left the room directly.
Wu Heng watched her leave.
He put the items on the table into his Space Ring.
He thought he remembered mentioning inquiring about the Hundred Soldiers Robe ornament in a letter to Lilith.
She shouldn't have failed to grasp his meaning.
Or perhaps she thought his Troop-Support Jade was more important than the ornament.
“Next time, I'll just write a direct request. This beating around the bush is too much trouble.”
And the other Emblem that had been changed was to a Punishment Officer. It seemed he had leveled up again.
Mainly, he was unclear about the hierarchy within the Blood Clan Church.
He didn't know to what extent he had reached, but it seemed not low, at least higher than the Enforcement Team.
With rapid thoughts in his mind, he got up and left the meeting room as well.
Just as he walked out the door,
Another warrior clad in iron armor approached.
He saluted, “Island Lord Wu Heng, Dean Gianvito requests your presence.”
Why not just talk in the meeting room.
He had quite a few things to arrange on his side.
But he couldn't refuse to see 'Gianvito,' not only because their relationship was good, but also because this operation needed him to mediate the relationship between the two sides.
“Where is the Dean?”
“In the dormitory.”
“Lead the way!”
The warrior walked ahead while Wu Heng, with his skeleton attendant, followed behind. They made their way to the Association dormitory. After the warrior said a few words outside the door,
the door opened, and Wu Heng went in with the skeleton.
“Island Lord Wu Heng.”
“Dean Gianvito.” Wu Heng revealed a smile.
“Please have a seat.” Gianvito picked up a teapot, poured him a cup of tea, and then said, “The changes in Gold and Silver Island are truly great; it's almost unbelievable that it's the same Gold and Silver Island.”
“The Association entrusted Gold and Silver Island to me, so naturally I have to try my best to do a good job.”
“Don't give me those formalities.”
Wu Heng smiled, “What I said came from the heart.”
“This matter is taken quite seriously by the Association, so there must be a result,” Gianvito said, his expression becoming serious.
Wu Heng frowned, “What kind of result does the Association want?”
“Did the Yeko Kingdom commit the murder? What are they trying to do?” Gianvito said.
“What if we can't figure it out?”
“Then those heroes might not be very satisfied, and it could affect your path ahead,” Gianvito remarked while picking up his teacup to take a sip.
“And what about you all?”
“We will, of course, fully cooperate with you. Those heroes above have great trust in your abilities as a Great Detective,” Gianvito casually replied.
Wu Heng pondered for a moment, “I see some aloofness in the team.”
“Don't worry about the Level 15s. As for the Elf Race Elder, just treat him as someone to hold the fort for you. With his level and strength, it's not easy to arrange tasks for him.”
Wu Heng nodded.
Although he didn't mind the other party's level, he still needed to keep it hidden from the outside world.
To avoid any danger.
The other party was an elder, so it was fine if he wanted to remain aloof; Wu Heng could use him as a shield if necessary.
“Thank you for the reminder, Dean. Perhaps I should build a structure on the island. How about your Mage Research Association moves to the island to live?” Wu Heng suggested directly.
Dean Gianvito's brow furrowed in an instant, eyeing him suspiciously.
Wu Heng's face showed sincerity, “Really, the academic atmosphere on the island is quite strong.”
“Let's talk about that later.” Dean Gianvito picked up his teacup for another sip, “I wanted to buy some of those fountain pens of yours, but with so many people in line, it might be a bit difficult.”
“You didn't mention it, so I almost forgot. The ones outside are just the standard models. I've prepared a collector's edition for you, which you can't buy outside.” Wu Heng said as he took out a gift box and pushed it across to the other party.
The veteran mage's eyes flashed with delight, he stroked his beard and nodded with a smile.
He examined it in his hand, noticing it indeed differed in style and shape from those sold outside.
Smooth and round to the touch.
“Hmm, not bad,” the veteran mage praised, then looked up.
Only to see Wu Heng smiling at him.
Dean Gianvito furrowed his brow, “What do you need?”
“You mentioned teaching me a skill last time; you haven't forgotten, have you?”
“When did I…” Dean Gianvito's tone paused as he glanced at the fountain pen in his hand, “What do you want to learn?”
“That move from last time when the witch summoned the beasts from the fog with the sunlight shining down from the sky, and they all died.”
“You're not high enough level, and your profession is different, you won't be able to learn it.”
“Just let me have a look at the Skill Book. If I can't learn it, I'll accept it.”
Dean Gianvito sipped his tea and said indifferently, “Choose another one.”
“How about Blink? That shouldn't be too much to ask, right!”
Dean Gianvito thought for a moment, “Shall I teach you, or do you want to read the Skill Book?”
“The Skill Book,” Wu Heng said, “I'm good at self-study.”
Dean Gianvito took out a yellowed book from his Space Ring and slid it across, “I'll lend it to you for a few days. You can read it on the ship, just don't lose it.”
[Teleportation Technique]
{Description: This spell allows you to transport yourself and up to three willing creatures within the range you specify to a designated location.}
“Alright.” Wu Heng collected the Skill Book, “Dean, did you bring any other Skill Books? The watches and bicycles we have on the island are not bad either.”
“I didn't bring any. We can talk about it later,” Dean Gianvito refused outright.
Wu Heng also smiled and said, “We'll talk after this matter is settled.”
“Alright, I also need to prepare. You can go back first.”
“Then we'll meet tomorrow.”
Wu Heng stood up with his skeleton attendant and left directly.
Dean Gianvito, back in his dorm, began to carefully examine the fountain pen.
On the way back.
Xi Ligui was not in the Steward's Office; she must have gone to arrange a mission.
Wu Heng then left the association directly and returned to his own residence.
Back at the Island Lord's Mansion.
Mini helped him take off his coat and casually asked, “My lord, why were you gone for such a long time?”
“The association's reinforcements have arrived. Tomorrow, we'll go to Netalee City together,” Wu Heng responded casually.
Mini paused in her movements, “Will it be dangerous?”
“Don't worry, there are three level 18 professionals accompanying us, and a lot of level 15s. It's just a city; we won't encounter any problems,” Wu Heng reassured as he patted her hair.
Mini shrank her shoulders, “Then let me accompany you.”
“Solving a case and bringing a maid along would be a joke, right? Besides, we need you to take care of things on Gold and Silver Island,” Wu Heng said.
“Alright then.”
Wu Heng continued, “I'm heading upstairs. At dinner time, let Mackintosh and Philippa know to come here for dinner.”
“Of course, my lord,” Mini replied.
Wu Heng instructed Mini to prepare the items he needed for going out, then headed upstairs.
Entering the study, he opened the boundary door.
Heading to Zombie World.
Wu Heng stepped out of the boundary door.
And heard the continuous pitter-patter of rain.
It was gloomy outside, with rain merging into a sheet.
It was raining here.
He let Xiao Xiao out to find her mother, as they might not see each other for a while.
Today, he would also pay a visit.
Wu Heng picked up the chargeable walkie-talkie next to him and called for Qi Hancai.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
Qi Hancai, wearing a coat, came in.
Wu Heng gestured for her to sit down next to him and asked, “Anything happen in the last few days?”
Qi Hancai replied, “Something did! We made contact with South Korea's national rescue team. They will arrange for someone to come over tomorrow and discuss matters with us.”
Tomorrow?
