The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 1399 - 1000, Thank You Master

Woo~!

The lodious whistle sounded, and the Phantom Train appeared out of thin air like an Illusion.

The train door opened with a ’clatter,’ and Wu Heng stepped out of the carriage, leaving a shallow footprint in the soft sand beneath his feet.

The sea breeze blowing in carried a salty, moist scent. In the distance, the azure sea sparkled, and a few seagulls skimd over the waves, letting out clear cries.

"Finally arrived!" Wu Heng took a deep breath and released his four Ghosts.

The other Ghosts looked around, and Lady stretched her Soul and floated over to ask, "Heavenly Fox Clan, where do you intend to arrange them?"

"There’s a newly built residential area on the island. Let Annette allocate a section for their living," Wu Heng said as he walked. "Don’t worry, it’s much better than the previous village, thanks to you, the Big Fox Woman."

Lady replied with a hint of annoyance, "It’s not thanks to , it’s thanks to you, the Great Leader!"

Xiao Xiao zipped over and, with hands on hips, said, "Auntie! Now you know the benefits of joining us? At first, you were so reluctant!"

Lady rolled her eyes, "We were enemies back then. If you were in my place, would you be willing?"

"Now you know it’s better!" Xiao Xiao said proudly.

Lady laughed and said, "Yes, yes, Xiao Xiao and your uncle are the best!"

Xiao Xiao’s smile grew even brighter.

Stepping into the comrcial street, the island’s hustle and bustle rushed toward them.

The street was filled with people coming and going, with the cries of vendors, the bargaining of rcenaries, and the playful noises of children intertwining, forming a scene full of vitality.

What was most noticeable was that almost everyone was discussing the sa thing: ’collectible cards.’

"Becker pulled a Purple Card yesterday and sold it for 150 silver coins right away."

"I have many duplicate Blue Cards; I’ll head to the tavern later to trade them."

"Blue Cards aren’t worth much!"

"Nobody’s heard of anyone getting a Gold Card yet!"

"The odds must be low; otherwise, everyone would be rich."

As Wu Heng walked past the crowd, Gran’s voice ca to his ears, "This ’Card’ thod of yours is more effective than the previous pill instructions."

Wu Heng turned his head and said, "In our world, this is just sothing leftover for kids to play."

When increasing fa, it was done by inserting instructions into the boxes of pills sold.

The box stated, for detailed instructions, see the manual, so anyone who could read would take a look to avoid using it incorrectly and causing danger.

But that thod ultimately was limited by literacy rates.

In this world, more people are illiterate.

Viola’s card strategy was simpler and more straightforward, using graphic promotion rarity excitent high bounty exchange to ignite the passion for collecting cards.

Of course, in the original world, these were not novel things.

"The tavern is already setting up a card exchange area!" Xiao Xiao flew back excitedly to report, "They really react quickly!"

Wu Heng nodded, "rchants always have the sharpest senses."

The taverns on Gold and Silver Island have always been trendsetters. When detective stories beca popular, they launched Bard exclusives; when hot items sold well, they opened agency services. Now, with the card craze rising, they quickly set up a card trading zone.

No matter what new activity ca to Gold and Silver Island, they could always get a taste of it.

"Let’s go to the city hall and take a look."

Wu Heng beckoned, stopping a carriage, and headed toward the center.

...

City Hall.

The heavy redwood door was gently pushed open, making a slight ’creak.’

Inside the room, sunlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling window, illuminating two silhouettes. Millicent hugged a stack of files and stood on tiptoe to place them on the shelf, while Annette was buried in writing, her feather pen rustling on the paper.

Upon hearing the sound, both looked over.

Millicent, holding the files, bowed slightly, "Sir."

She was Philippa’s mother, and her own profession was Investigator, so Wu Heng arranged a civilian job for her at the city hall.

Handling files and recording docunts are ways for an Investigator to level up.

Annette’s eyes also lit up, "Master, you’re back!"

Wu Heng sat down to the side, "Why so many files?"

Annette gave a wry smile, "It’s been a bit busy lately."

Wu Heng had ntioned having them delegate mundane tasks to subordinates, allowing them to focus on training, since Annette, being a warrior, needed training for level advancent.

But the rapid developnt of Gold and Silver Island, especially the recent surge in consortium trade, brought an avalanche of approvals, agreents, and dispatch files that ultimately converged at the core desk of city hall, despite layers of delegation.

Just then, Millicent brought over tea, then stood respectfully to the side.

Wu Heng continued, "Let’s set that aside for now. Look at the newly built residential area. Find a suitable location, a place close to the comrcial area with a good environnt."

"A lot of new areas have beco available recently." Annette spread out a map and asked, "How large of an area do you need?"

"More than 300 people belong to the Heavenly Fox Clan. It’s best to have them in one place," Wu Heng said.

"Heavenly Fox Clan? You an the fox people clan?"

"The fox people clan, the sa race as Lady, the kind that gets more tails as they level up," Wu Heng sat and explained.

Annette circled an area on the map with her slender finger, "Master, this area is near the market, and the constructions are very good. It was initially planned to be sold as a residential area and can be allocated to the Heavenly Fox Clan."

Wu Heng glanced at it and asked mid-air, "Lady, what do you think?"

Lady appeared mid-air, "It’s good, let’s settle here."
