Smiling, he said, “You're exaggerating a bit. Besides heroes, the association has many elders, and the inspector position is only useful locally. It wouldn't be effective back at headquarters.”
“That's enough,” Mini immediately said. “That steward in Lundham City, I don't like him at all. Master, you should investigate him.”
During their time in Lundham City, the decisions made by the local steward were not very friendly.
Mini had remembered this until now.
“No need to bother with him, Wen Mansha is still there,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
“Alright then,” Mini replied reluctantly.
After Wu Heng finished explaining the situation, he stood up and said, “I'll go have a look at the Mechanist's place and be back by dinner.”
“Okay, Master.”
The Mechanist's building wasn't far from the Island Lord's Mansion.
Wu Heng went there with the Skeleton.
“Lord Island Master!” Corpse Ghost Mechanist 'Costas' came out with several Skeletons.
This Mechanist was recommended to him by the Snake Badge Consortium's 'Retili'.
Level 17, formerly the Vice Chancellor of the Celt Kingdom.
With his life approaching its end, he had Wu Heng perform the transformation ceremony to turn him into a Corpse Ghost and join Gold and Silver Island.
“Are you adapting well to life in the city?”
“Quite well. Gold and Silver Island is a very promising small island; it will only get better,” Costas directly replied.
“How's the study of the power plant blueprints coming along?” Wu Heng continued to inquire.
Costas nodded and said, “The blueprints are very clear. We've conducted simple assembly and testing in the experimental area and can complete the assembly and construction.”
“Not bad,” Wu Heng continued, “In a while, we'll be taking on some construction projects from other regions, including building power plants. We can start preparing the necessary Array Patterns and equipment in advance.”
“Understood, Lord. Approximately how many people in the city will need this?” Costas asked.
“About the same as Gold and Silver Island; just make a copy.”
“Understood, we'll start preparing tomorrow,” Costas said directly.
Then, the man and Corpse Ghost discussed some local factory matters.
As dusk approached, they left and returned to the Island Lord's Mansion.
At dinner, at the dining table.
“Wu Heng inquired, “Wei'er, where are the materials sent by the various commercial associations stored?”
“In the warehouse area at Dock No.2. I've conducted detailed registry here,” Andre Willow answered.
“Take me there tomorrow. I want to take some of them.”
“Okay, Master.”
As they continued to dine, Mini relayed to Wei'er the details Wu Heng had just shared.
After dinner.
Mini and Andre Willow took Wu Heng back to his room to rest.
The next day, Wu Heng and Andre Willow went to the warehouse.
They collected some purchased supplies into the Space Satchel.
Near midday, after saying goodbye to the maids and donning the Train Captain's Hat, he returned to Netalee City.
The train was still parked in the wilderness.
Wu Heng, accompanied by the Skeleton, entered the city gate.
Today, the atmosphere in the city was a bit better.
At the port, some ships from commercial associations could be seen, many workers moving supplies around.
As Shanaela had mentioned, some associations had also arrived in Netalee City.
They planned to explore potential business opportunities or to acquire some high-quality assets.
Wu Heng glanced around, planning to call for a carriage to return to the City Lord's Mansion.
“Wu Heng, there's a hero.”
Glenda's voice echoed in his ear.
A hero?
The sudden statement left Wu Heng momentarily stunned.
Glenda continued, “The man in the white cloak opposite, Level 20 professional, has reached the hero level.”
Wu Heng's gaze sharpened as he looked up toward the front.
Three people were walking towards them, the leader tall, about two meters, with distinctly chiseled features and slanted eyebrows, exuding an imposing aura.
Draped in a white cloak over a purple suit, fitting his strong build.
Wu Heng frowned deeply.
A hero entered the city?
The association's new inspection team? Or someone from other powers, or a member of the Evil Cult?
The likelihood of it being the Evil Cult was pretty slim.
Walking around so conspicuously would be too provocative.
Even if they weren't afraid of the association's members, this wouldn't be their approach.
As Wu Heng reflected, the man in the white cloak seemed to sense something and turned to look over.
Their eyes met, and a strong oppressive feeling swept over.
Wu Heng slightly furrowed his brow.
He nodded at the man, who also seemed startled but nodded back.
They then took back their gazes and passed by each other.
