The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 262 - 220, Let the Sun Hang in the Sky1
Chapter 262: Chapter 220, Let the Sun Hang in the Sky_1
Knocking on the door lightly, after receiving a response from within.
Imdiately pushed open the door and walked in.
Goz, the executive, was sitting behind the desk, holding a flyer in his hand, looking at the content on it. As he saw Wu Heng walk in, he put the flyer down.
“Exexcutive!” Wu Heng was the first one to speak.
“Hmm, I heard that you assisted the Knights in handling the Hamr Party.” Goz spoke straight to the point.
“Just doing what was expected of .”
Seeing Wu Heng’s admission, a touch of surprise flashed in Goz’s eyes.
Yesterday when he returned, so news had reached his ears.
It wasn’t just that the Hamr Party hadn’t succeeded.
The most surprising thing was that Wu Heng had gathered tens of thousands of carrion, defeated the Hamr Party, and had seized half of Lundham City.
He had beco a City Lord with half of the city’s governing rights.
Due to the short ti, he hadn’t had a chance to verify this matter.
Now that Wu Heng had admitted it, it solidified the authenticity of the event.
Having been absent for a few days, the latest team captain to join the association had not only survived the battlefield, but had also solved this incident, and gained control of half the city.
Even having confird that it was true.
It still seed a little unbelievable.
Goz took another look at the flyer on his desk and said, “What exactly happened on that day? Tell about it.”
Wu Heng roughly explained the situation at the ti and the issue of the City Lord giving up half of the city.
As for Goz running away for several days, Wu Heng didn’t want to comnt on it.
He sowhat disapproved of this approach, but if it were him and he knew in advance that the Hamr Party was going to attack,
There was a high probability that he would also choose to escape from the city and return after a few days.
“Quite a few things really did happen.” Goz expressed so emotion.
Wu Heng continued, “Executive, our team killed the leader of the Hamr Party and two of its key mbers. Since the bodies were turned into undead attendants beforehand, the coroner ntioned that it would still require your confirmation.”
Hearing that Wu Heng and his team had killed Skull Crusher, Goz’s pupils shrank once again.
Skull Crusher died by his hand?
He had the power to kill a Fourth-tier Strongman?
Goz was also doubting in his heart whether Wu Heng’s identity and resu were genuine.
Having killed even the leader of the Hamr Party, how could he be just a captain from a small town?
With various thoughts in his mind, he kept a straight face and said,
“Hmm, let your undead attendants in.”
Goz called over the coroner, and Wu Heng had the three beastman skeletons co in.
After a series of comparisons,
Goz said outright, “There’s no problem, report it to the association, attribute it to Team 12.”
“Yes, executive!” The coroner nodded and left right away.
…
Goz motioned for Wu Heng to sit down by his side.
And continued to ask, “Now that you’re a City Lord, do you have any plans?”
Wu Heng didn’t expect the other party to chat with him, so he replied directly, “I don’t have any plans, we’re playing it by ear.”
Goz nodded, “The association doesn’t interfere with mbers’ lives, but as a captain and a City Lord, you need to manage both roles well.”
“Understood!”
“Hmm, we’re all from the association. If you need any help, just let us know.” Goz continued.
It felt like Goz had beco a completely different person.
In the past, when he spoke to Wu Heng, it was basically about giving out tasks, and it was always in a commanding tone.
Even though Wu Heng had led his team to kill many wanted criminals, it didn’t attract his attention.
Now he seed more like a leader who cared about his subordinates, appearing to be very kind.
This made Wu Heng feel a bit uncomfortable.
“Thanks, executive. If I need anything, I’ll ask for it.”
“With two tier two ritorious services, I can recomnd you to the association later for promotion, enough for you to beco a Vice-executive. Any place you’d like to go?” Goz continued.
Wu Heng glanced at him, and didn’t expect him to bring this up.
Recomndation from the executive was also a very important promotion channel.
“I haven’t thought about it yet. Besides, my level and strength haven’t t the requirents yet,” Wu Heng said.
“Hmm, take your ti, you’re all still young. The world ahead belongs to you.” Goz continued.
The two made so small talk.
Then the captain of another team knocked and ca in.
He glanced at the two people in the room.
“Executive, Captain Wu Heng.”
Goz nodded, “Wu Heng, you can go. If there’s any task, I’ll inform you.”
“Alright.” Wu Heng responded, nodding to the captain in the room before leaving.
After closing the door, he could faintly hear the discussion about wanted criminals inside.
…
He returned to the team’s resting room.
The other two mbers were also sitting in the room.
“Captain, how did it go?” Duke asked directly.
“Nothing, I’ve already told the executive about the Hamr Party, the rit will be credited to our team later,” Wu Heng said.
Hearing this, the other three were overjoyed.
Two tier two ritorious services and two tier three ritorious services were impressive, even if they were only records of joint kills. It was enough to make their resus look very good.
There would be no problem in being promoted to team captain in the future.
“It’s all thanks to the captain, we’re just basking in your glory,” Duke said as he scratched his head and flattered Wu Heng.
The other two concurred.
“Alright, everyone has done their part,” said Wu Heng, then he turned towards the swordsman in leather armor. “Galo Berley!”
“Chief!”
Galo Berley got his rits in a lucky draw.
Originally, he joined the team with a purpose and hadn’t been on the team for many days, but he had collected a bunch of rits.
He must be the fastest one to accumulate rits in the guild.
It’s so unbelievable that no one would believe it if he said it out loud.
“The bereavent payout ca in, pick it up at the front desk and send it to Burke’s house. As for the rest, just give them money,” says Wu Heng.
“Yes, Chief!”
Wu Heng looked at everyone and said, “Alright, there’s nothing else in the guild, go ho, share the good news with your families, have a good ti.”
“Thank you, Chief!”
After thanking Wu Heng, everyone left the guild.
…
After leaving the guild,
Wu Heng headed straight for the Snake Badge Consortium across the street.
Entering the break room,
Laisia followed in.
She raised her embroidered eyebrows and said, “Lord Mayor, what brings you here today?”
“Ca to see you!” Wu Heng said with a smile.
“I don’t believe you.”
“Any news on the Skill Book procurent commission?” asked Wu Heng.
Laisia sat down beside him, the gold necklace that Wu Heng had given her was visible on her slender neck.
It made her skin look even whiter.
“The Hamr Party matter just concluded, it can’t be this fast. Wait a little longer, I will notify you if there is any news,” said Laisia.
Wu Heng nodded, not surprised.
Goz just ca back, so the collection of items is even slower.
“I wanted to ask you about soone.”
“Hmm, information costs money.”
“Alright.” Wu Heng leaned a little closer and said, “Mumloda, I believe he is a notable person from the inner city.”
Laisia wrinkled her brows and considered for a mont, then shook her head, “I’ve never heard of him, I can post a notice for others to gather so intel.”
If she posts it, then everyone will know, including ‘Mumloda’ himself.
Wu Heng didn’t want him to know about it yet.
“No need. I was just asking, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know. You shouldn’t charge since you don’t know, right?”
“No charge, really! You’re a Lord Mayor!”
Wu Heng kept the conversation going and chatted with her for a while.
He then changed the topic, “Can I look at the city map that you showed last ti?”
“The map?”
“Yes, the map of Lundham City.” Wu Heng said.
“Sure.” Laisia opened the door, gave instructions to soone outside, and a map including both the inner and outer city areas was spread out on the table.
So details might be slightly off, but the overall layout and roads of the city were accurate and clear.
Wu Heng took a careful look.
Laisia sat next to him, crossed her legs, sipped her tea, and her fair and delicate leg lightly swayed mid-air, “Looking at your jurisdiction?”
“Yes!”
Wu Heng stood up, took out his tablet, and took a picture of the entire map in the air.
Laisia frowned and stood up to look at the tablet screen.
She had never seen anything that can directly imprint maps and it’s so clear.
Wu Heng put away his tablet and said, “Do you think extending shop opening hours would help the developnt of the city?”
“You an, you want shops to do business for longer hours?”
“Yes, what do you think?” Wu Heng asked.
Laisia smiled, “Unless you can make the sun hang in the sky all the ti.”
“What if it’s possible?”
“Then this place will beco the most prosperous city among the beastn and humans.”
“Hmm, that makes sense.” Wu Heng nodded in agreent.
“By that ti, you will be in control of the sun, and do you still care about whether these shops open or not?” Laisia added.
Wu Heng shrugged his shoulders without saying anything.
He spent so ti in the consortium before deciding to take his leave.
…
Returning ho,
he had a rest in his room.
At dusk, Mini and Andre Willow returned ho.
When they saw Wu Heng at ho, they chatted away about the day’s shop reopening activities.
Wu Heng sat and listened.
The night fell.
Mini and Andre Willow went to prepare dinner in the kitchen, and Wen Mansha also returned ho from outside.
Seeing Wu Heng, she also smiled.
After dinner,
Mini and Bawudong practiced boxing on the side.
Wu Heng sat on the sofa, “Wen Mansha!”
Wen Mansha poured herself a cup of tea and sat down close to him, “What’s the matter, Master?”
Wu Heng opened his tablet, brought up the map he took a picture of earlier, and said, “I need you to arrange for people to dig so deep pits along these two main streets and erect tal iron pipes in them.”
