The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 872 - 872 704 Selling Satellites
Chapter 872: Chapter 704, Selling Satellites Chapter 872: Chapter 704, Selling Satellites Wu Heng couldn’t say much. Bets, after all, are a private agreent between two parties. Once lost, it’s lost.
He then asked, “Has the letter been sent to the association?”
“It has been sent. When I arrived, they directly took it and left for the headquarters,” Philippa said.
“Did the Elder say anything?”
“He did, he praised for being very decisive and aware in today’s combat, and also included my performance in his report,” Philippa said cheerfully.
“Indeed, you did well today.”
“But you didn’t praise .”
“What is there to praise? Your ability is innate, sothing you were born with. Do you still need others’ approval?” Wu Heng said solemnly.
Philippa was taken aback, “Wow, you really know what to say.”
Shortly after, Brittany ca downstairs saying that the bathwater was ready.
Philippa got up to go upstairs, and the servants finally sighed in relief.
Wu Heng followed upstairs, “It’s just a novelty for her, the excitent will pass, and she will forget all about it.”
Brittany said, “We indeed lost, and we almost impacted your judgnt. We acknowledge that.”
“Get so rest early, don’t think too much.”
“Thank you, Island Master!” Brittany gave a slight bow.
Wu Heng returned to his chosen room, and the servants went to their respective floors.
Night fell, and it was ti to rest.
…
The next day, early morning.
A skeleton attendant was assigned to the Fifth Princess, who then officially took over the entire city.
Wu Heng went to the association to attend a eting with Elder Tapani that lasted all morning.
The main agenda was to open the port and further refine the tasks for city defense and patrolling.
“Alright, everyone proceed with your tasks, and don’t act alone to prevent any movents from the Evil Cult.”
“Yes!” everyone responded, then turned and left.
Wu Heng also got up and walked out.
Just as he reached the door, Tapani called out, “Wu Heng, wait.”
“Elder, do you need sothing?” Wu Heng turned back.
Tapani said, “Is there no issue with the Fifth Princess?”
“Nothing major. She has already started taking over so of the city affairs this morning, but we still need to assist her with city defense,” Wu Heng replied.
“Hmm, let’s keep it this way for now and see how the headquarters plans to respond.”
“Understood!”
Tapani then said, “Write a letter to Gold and Silver Island asking for so food and living supplies to be sent here. We’ll be staying in the city for a while, and the association will reimburse the expenses.”
“Alright, I’ll see to it when I get back.”
Tapani nodded.
Seeing no more business for him, Wu Heng also left the eting room.
All personnel in the association had tasks assigned.
Seemingly, he was rather relieved, except for writing to Gold and Silver Island, no other tasks were delegated to him.
He paused at the doorway, then started walking towards the business street.
…
Armor Shop.
Wu Heng looked at the tightly closed doors and knocked forcefully.
After a short while, the door cracked open slightly, with eyes peering through the gap.
Then, the door opened fully, and an elderly woman respectfully said, “Greetings, representative of the association.”
“Where is your boss?”
“Please co in, sir. I’ll go call her.” The woman led Wu Heng into the room.
After waiting in the shop’s lobby for a while, the proprietress ca out.
Compared to last ti, she had returned to her original appearance, her face free of grease and no longer deliberately disheveled.
“Sir, are you leaving?” the proprietress asked directly.
When Wu Heng visited last ti, he had promised her to take the people from her shop to Gold and Silver Island when he left.
“I ca to discuss this matter with you.”
“Please tell .”
Wu Heng glanced at her, “You might as well know about the changes in the city. The Elder has ordered us to stay longer, so we won’t be returning to Gold and Silver Island for now.”
The proprietress frowned slightly, pressing, “So returning people said the City Lord is dead, is that true?”
“That’s true, the association’s notice will be posted soon. The city is now under the Fifth Princess’s control,” Wu Heng explained.
She didn’t seem concerned about who was taking over the city.
Rather, she pressed on, “Is the city still dangerous?”
“For the mont, there should be no danger. If there really is any change, I’ll take you all away,” Wu Heng said.
The proprietress imdiately thanked him, “Thank you, sir.”
“This ti, I ca especially to inform you, so you don’t need to worry too much.”
“Alright.”
Having finished, Wu Heng also stood up to leave. The proprietress escorted him to the door and closed it again firmly.
…
Following the business street back.
Already, mbers of the association had begun posting notices at doorways.
The City Lord died, and the entire city was taken over by the Fifth Princess, with the assistance of the association.
The rest was about encouraging the restoration of order in the city, with cases to be referred to the Patrol Team or to seek help from the association.
“Uncle, there’s a Bard’s shop over there, why don’t we go see if there are any Skill Books?”
A small voice spoke by his ear.
Wu Heng looked up and saw a shop selling Bard’s props diagonally across from them.
“Closed, let’s ask,” Wu Heng walked over and knocked on the door forcefully.
After a short while, the door cracked open slightly, and a pair of eyes peeked through.
“What can I do for you?”
“We’re here to look at the Bard’s Skill Books.”
“Tell what you want to buy, and I’ll see if I have it,” the person inside responded directly.
Wu Heng didn’t really know what Skill Books the Bard had.
So he simply said, “I’ll take anything below the Second Tier.”
“Alright, just a mont!” The crack in the door closed.
In a little while, it opened again, “Four books in total, that’ll be 170 silver coins.”
Wu Heng paid, and the other party handed out four Skill Books.
The way the transaction was conducted was very cautious, reminiscent of dealing in contraband.
Taking them all, four types of Skill Books appeared.
[Communication Skill][Heroism][Loud Voice][Skill of Eloquence].
Communication Skill allowed one to transmit ssages within a certain range to specified targets.
The remaining three were all effect amplifiers.
Heroism, upon release, increased courage; Loud Voice extended the range of the voice; Skill of Eloquence simply improved language skills.
These were all rather common Bard skills.
“Do you have any props? Sothing suitable for beginners?” Wu Heng continued.
Just as he was about to shut the door again, “One mont.”
Coming back, a ring was passed out, “230 silver.”
[Universal Language Ring]
(Description: A ring etched with special effects that enables the wearer’s speech and voice to be more impactful, and can also complent performances in place of deception or disguise.)
It was another ring that enhanced language, nothing special about it.
Perhaps, because Bards focused more on appearances, the ring was quite attractive.
Definitely fancier than rings from other professions.
“Good, I’ll take it.” Wu Heng imdiately paid, and the door’s crack shut tightly.
Wu Heng didn’t say much more, turning around to head back.
“We bought a lot this ti,” Xiao Xiao, in invisible mode, hung on one shoulder.
“Are you going to translate when we get back?” asked Wu Heng.
“Isn’t there a skeleton that can translate already!”
“Aren’t you going to practice writing? Can’t always be in pinyin.”
“Are you expecting to go to university?”
They returned to the City Lord’s Mansion along the way.
The Fifth Princess hadn’t returned yet, and the entire building was guarded only by skeletons inside and out.
Wu Heng quickly sorted through his things and opened the boundary door in the study, stepping through.
…
Zombie World.
Stepping out of the boundary door, he habitually walked to the window and looked outside.
Wu Heng picked up the radio, “Qi Hancai, are you there?”
Soon, Qi Hancai’s voice ca through the radio, “Yes, today is the scheduled ti with the South Korea main station, I was just planning to head over with the convoy.”
“Where do we et?” Wu Heng asked.
“The designated location is inside a building in the city center,” answered Qi Hancai.
“Wait for then, I’ll co with you today,” said Wu Heng, switching from leather armor to a bulletproof vest, and then he went downstairs.
The convoy was already waiting at the door.
Wu Heng pulled open the car door, settling into the passenger seat, “Let’s go!”
Leader Qi commanded, “Depart.”
The convoy started and left the base.
…
Inside a building.
Qi Hancai sat on a chair, with Wu Heng acting as a bodyguard standing by his side.
Not long later, three figures walked in.
The leader was a Westerner, followed by two individuals with Asian faces, likely Koreans.
The Westerner smiled warmly, speaking quickly.
A nearby interpreter said, “Leader Qi, we et again.”
Qi Hancai also smiled, “Yes! Mr. David, being so confident to invite us today, I wonder what kind of exchange items you’ve prepared?”
The interpreter imdiately repeated it in English.
David smiled confidently and answered directly, “Of course, last ti I heard you were quite interested in satellites, we plan to sell one to you directly, but the price needs to be discussed.”
Qi Hancai raised his eyebrows.
Wu Heng was also surprised.
Goodness, now they were talking about selling satellites.
