Chapter 1385: Chapter 993, Fla Furnace Project_2

The Great Elder at the head of the table looked over, rubbing the scepter in his hand, “Shanaela, you have the keenest insight in business; do you have any suggestions?”

Shanaela pretended to ponder for a mont, “I can negotiate with Wu Heng on behalf of the Wood Elves, but I’ll need so leverage.”

The Great Elder mused, “Then let’s build 20 more Spirit Awakening Churches.”

“50 churches, 20 doesn’t show enough sincerity.”

“No way.” The Great Elder shook his head, “The Archbishop of The Holy Court has protested several tis, at most 30 churches, we can increase later when given a chance.”

“Alright, I’ll try to ensure the Consortium’s business won’t affect us here,” Shanaela agreed.

The latter part of the eting discussed so trade details.

Before the eting adjourned, the Third Elder suddenly laughed, “Shanaela, why not let the Great Elder officiate and bring about your marriage with Wu Heng?”

Shanaela’s cheeks flushed but she quickly regained her composure, “If it were before he beca a Hero, it wouldn’t be an issue, but now…being too intentional might be counterproductive.”

She then flashed a sweet smile, “But rest assured, our relationship is very stable.”

The elders sighed quietly amongst themselves.

They were the ones who had opposed this relationship back then, now they wanted to make ands but it was too late.

“As long as you’re happy.” The Great Elder said softly.

…

Gold and Silver Island, the living room.

The nine fox tails of the Lady puppet spread out behind her, each tail swaying gently with her movents, reflecting in the sunlight like flowing silver satin.

Compared to the previous puppets, this creation is undoubtedly the most stunning work by the Deceit Puppet Master.

“Wow! The tails can move on their own!” Xiao Xiao exclaid, then jumped to Wu Heng’s side, hugging his arm and shaking it, “Uncle! I want one that moves too! Hurry and write to the Deceit Puppet Master!”

Wu Heng laughed, “You’re not part of the fox people clan, what do you want a tail for?”

The nine fox tails were indeed spectacular, but their practicality was questionable; such a large tuft of fluffy tails could cause a spectacle outdoors, not to ntion they might not even fit into a carriage.

“Because they look pretty!” Xiao Xiao’s eyes sparkled, but her tone suddenly shifted, “But I don’t want a fox tail, I want those Spider-Man-like spider legs! The kind that climb walls!”

The maids nearby all turned to look.

Wanting spider legs….

Xiao Xiao’s thought process was indeed unique.

Wu Heng considered for a mont before turning to Glenda and said, “Write another letter to the Deceit Puppet Master, list out all the new functions you want, and have him make another batch.”

Glenda rolled her eyes, “You agree to this? You really indulge her.”

Bleh bleh bleh~!

Xiao Xiao clung to Wu Heng’s arm and playfully stuck her tongue out towards them.

After experinting with the novelty of the fox tails, Glenda, Xiao Xiao, and Bella puppets began testing the combat capabilities of their new bodies.

The iron-grey bodies exhibited astonishing flexibility and strength, moving seamlessly, entirely different from the initial ivory-white puppets ant only for display.

The Lady, with her nine fluffy tails, stood at the edge of the field without any intention of participating.

According to her, she wasn’t in a close combat profession before her passing and saw no need to engage in sword fights.

Wu Heng walked to her side, couldn’t help but ask, “Do you fox people always go out with such extravagant tails?”

“In fox people territories, there are tails everywhere, what’s so strange about that?” The Lady glanced at him.

That’s true, what seems exotic to the Human Race, is rely standard for the fox people.

“But didn’t you live in our world before?” Wu Heng referred to when she was a consort during the Shang Dynasty, “Did you go to court with tails then?”

The Lady, without a flicker, said, “We belong to the Heavenly Fox Clan! Our true form can naturally retract our tails!”

Wu Heng glanced at her tails, and she snapped, “These are puppets, I’m talking about the fox people.”

“I know, just curious to see.” Wu Heng continued, “But it does look nice, next ti let the Deceit Puppet Master make you a combat-type puppet, then you can go out and catch fugitives for a living.”

The Lady snorted coldly, thinking that both he and Xiao Xiao had the most bizarre ideas.

She turned and headed upstairs, “I’m going to write the Body Refining Technique, no ti to banter with you.”

Wu Heng watched her depart with a smile.

Once her figure disappeared, the sound of soft footsteps and suppressed laughter could be heard.

“Female ghosts are really easy to cheer up!” Wu Heng muttered.

…

The phone rang at this mont.

After Wu Heng answered, Shanaela’s voice ca from the other end, “The Elder’s Council has concluded.”

The two switched to a video call.

“How did it go?” Wu Heng teased, “Did our Sixth Elder propose any groundbreaking reform plans at the eting?”

“What kind of reform plans could I have?” Shanaela retorted in a mock annoyance, “The main topic was setting up the churches for you.”

Wu Heng chuckled, about to speak, when Xiao Xiao manipulated the puppet to dash past the lens, leaving behind a crisp “Aunt Shanaela!”

She vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

A quick greeting, regardless of whether the other party saw who was speaking.

“Xiao Xiao, I’ll bring you a gift when I return.” Shanaela said with a smile.

Wu Heng reminded, “She’s gone, didn’t hear it.”

“Alright then….”

“What did the Elder’s Council say?” Wu Heng asked directly.

Shanaela’s voice cald down, “The Elder’s Council agreed to establish 30 more churches, but requires the Snake Badge Consortium to sell Gold and Silver Island products, avoiding the Wood Elf lands.”

“There’s no need to worry about this, I’ve already worked things out with the Snake Badge Consortium, they won’t interfere with the Wood Elf side.” Wu Heng replied.

“Hmm, that’s for the best, my goal is for all towns and above in the Wood Elf territory to establish Spiritual Awakening Churches, but it seems more ti is needed.” Shanaela said.

Wu Heng pondered, “What are their concerns?”

“Naturally it’s The Holy Court.” Shanaela sighed lightly, “The Elder’s Council has been protested multiple tis by the Archbishop of The Holy Court, we can’t act too blatantly, 30 churches is already the limit.”

Wu Heng understood her difficulties.

Shanaela is caught between the Wood Elves and himself, needing to pursue benefits without damaging the relationship with either.

He spoke warmly, “Just do your best, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Even if we can’t reach an agreent, we’re not in a rush, let’s not damage our harmony.”

He needed Shanaela to know that Gold and Silver Island wouldn’t use force like The Holy Court to compel the Wood Elves.

Shanaela seed relieved, her voice softened, “I know, I’ll be back in a few days, wait for at ho.”

“Alright!” The two ended the call.

…

As dusk deepened, Gold and Silver Island was cloaked in a serene silence.

After dinner with the maids, Wu Heng returned to his bedroom.

During the days when Shanaela was away, Mini and the other maids, including Annette, would agreeably take turns accompanying him.

Today it was Annette’s turn, she tidied up the bed briefly, then turned off the lights early, lying in her master’s arms and drifting peacefully into sleep.

…

The next day, Zombie World.

Wu Heng took a plane, heading to the Yangtong City military factory.

Upon entering the factory zone, Wu Heng walked into the eting room and dialed Gao Rong, “I’m in the eting room.”

“Understood, I’ll be there shortly.” Gao Rong’s reply was crisp and decisive.

In less than five minutes, there was a knock at the door.

Gao Rong arrived, accompanied by a tall Russian, ‘Kadrof,’ the top scientist rescued by Wu Heng from Russia.

The electromagnetic cannon had co from them.

Now he is the core person in charge of the military factory’s electric power research project.

“Leader!”

Both greeted simultaneously. Although Kadrof’s Chinese was stiff, his tone was respectful.

“Sit.” Wu Heng gestured with his hand.

Gao Rong and Kadrof sat on the chairs opposite, exchanging a glance.

Gao Rong nodded slightly, “Mr. Kadrof, you can report first.”

Kadrof opened the tablet he carried, pulling up a set of data charts, calmly saying, “Leader, the Fla Furnace power generation project has completed all design and actual installation tests, adaptable to various vehicle platforms.”
