Chapter 270: Chapter 226, Leaving Black Stone Town was the Right Decision_2
The story wasn’t long, yet the two ladies were still surprised.
It sounded simple, but what was inside was already frightening.
Black Stone Town never experienced such large-scale wars.
Wu Heng highlighted in the conversation his actions of repelling the Hammer Party and killing enemy leaders.
Slyther is a Secret Speaker, he doesn’t know how Gomez and the others will report this matter.
It would be best to let Slyther report it as well.
“Oh! So, that’s why you said the undead on the city wall were yours,” Yuli finally responded.
“These two undead attendants of yours, were they also from the Hammer Party?” Slyther continued to ask.
“Leader Skull Crusher and Lieutenant Blood Axe,” Wu Heng introduced, indicating to each side.
“Second-level merits?” Slyther looked at the skeleton.
“Yes.”
Slyther glanced at the skeleton and then at Wu Heng.
After leaving Black Stone Town, the timid necromancer, like a sprouting seedling seeing sunlight after breaking through the soil, started growing wildly.
So, it seemed that leaving Black Stone Town was the right choice.
Perhaps, leaving the Yeko Kingdom was the correct decision to make.
…
It was peaceful for a while.
Slyther finally accepted the fact, picked up a teacup, and took a sip, “Congratulations.”
“Thank you, actually, whether I became the City Lord or not, nothing has really changed,” Wu Heng shrugged and said.
Slyther didn’t dwell on this topic, asking, “Where is the thing I requested?”
“Give it to you now?” Wu Heng directly took out the ‘Blood Cup’ and placed it on the coffee table.
The purpose of Slyther’s trip was to get the ‘Blood Cup’.
And then to visit Wu Heng, and bring Yuli around to stroll.
“Just handing it over to me like this?”
“You need it; I happen to have it, so why not give it to you?”
Slyther glanced at Yuli who was fiddling with the antler decoration next to him, and glared fiercely at Wu Heng.
“Thank you.”
He took out a wooden box and carefully put the Blood Cup inside.
Wu Heng asked again, “Have your accommodations been arranged?”
“The association has arranged accommodations,” Slyther said.
“Oh, how many days are you going to stay?”
“Leave the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow you show Yuli around the city.”
“Oh, okay!”
The two chatted a bit more.
Slyther left the lounge with Yuli, heading for the accommodation arranged by the association.
Wu Heng watched the two women leave and also left the association.
…
He originally thought Slyther would stay at his place.
But since Yuli was here, he had to revert back to his stern, maidenly persona.
Wu Heng rode his tricycle back home.
Upon opening the door, a cool breeze greeted him.
Mini and Andre Willow were cooking in the kitchen; Wen Mansha was sitting on the sofa reading the files in her hand.
“Master is back!” Wen Mansha greeted with a smile.
Wu Heng took off his leather armor, hugged her shoulder, “How was your day?”
Wen Mansha lazily leaned against him, saying, “Everyone in the city is now discussing the street lights. Tonight, more people will be going to watch. It’s becoming almost like a tourist attraction.”
“What’s so great about it?” Wu Heng was curious.
It was understandable that people went to watch last night.
After all, it’s a new thing and normal to be curious and want to take a look.
But why go again today…
A glowing thing without any special features, what on earth is so exciting?
“I heard that many people have made plans to go,” Wen Mansha continued, “Most people from the Outer City Area have only heard about magic tools. Plus, they have nothing to do at night, so they go to a brightly lit place to chat and make it lively.”
That seemed reasonable.
There wasn’t much in terms of entertainment at night. Some people would go to pubs for a drink.
But most people didn’t have many other places to go.
Find a well-lit place to chat and pass the time.
Wu Heng continued to ask, “When will the other street lights be ready?”
“Wait a bit more until these things are not so unique,” Wen Mansha said.
“Alright!”
After dinner.
Mini practiced martial arts while Andre Willow went upstairs to settle today’s accounts.
Wu Heng sat in front of the table and took out the box that Boss Bawudong gave him.
Upon opening, it revealed a dirt-yellowish plant covered in whiskers.
It was like a yam, but its root resembled that of a ginseng.
Treasure Root Twig Beard
(Description: Whiskers cut from the root branch, nourishes blood and energy, can be used as alchemical materials.)
It also had attributes, most likely a type of medicinal herb
“Have you seen this before?” He asked the nearby Mini.
“What’s this?”
“Medicinal herb, I think! Can be used in alchemy.”
Mini shook her head, “I’ve never seen it before.”
She originates from the Beastman Tribe and had never seen it before.
He should probably ask an Alchemist.
At this moment, Wen Mansha, with her hair still slightly damp, came down from upstairs. She glanced at the herb on the table and said, “Master, how did you get this?”
“You know this?”
“It’s Treasure Root Glyph, very nourishing for men,” Wen Mansha continued, “Rocky was injured before and tried it during his recovery.”
“Oh,” Wu Heng finally knew what it was for.
No wonder, when the Beastman boss gave it to him, he was over the moon.
“Master, you have no use for it. Your body’s still fine.”
“Who’s Rocky? What happened to his body?” Mini asked nonstop from the side.
“Don’t ask about everything, you’re still a child,” Wen Mansha said.
Mini pouted, continuing to practice boxing with Bawudong on the sidelines.
Wen Mansha, leaning over even closer, whispered, “Master, are you feeling unwell? Would you like me to help you adjust it?”
“Someone gave it to me,” Wu Heng said.
“I don’t believe it!”
Looking at her flirtatious behaviour, he picked her up around the waist and walked towards the staircase, “Mini, let’s together punish the wicked gang big sister!”
“Okay!” Mini followed and ran upstairs.
…
In the accommodation provided by the association.
Slyther sat at the desk, penning a letter.
The first part was about how he got the ‘Blood Cup’. The latter part was about the changes in Lundham City, and Wu Heng’s growth during this period.
Because Wu Heng was his lover, his personal strength wasn’t mentioned in detail. The focus was on beating the Hammer Party in Lundham City and saving the city’s residents.
Some of the association’s deeds, after being verified by headquarters, would be selected for wide spread to inspire people and establish their image.
Wu Heng’s deeds could possibly be disseminated.
He put the finished letter into the envelope.
Just as he was sealing it with wax.
Ding dong dong~!
There were knocks from the closed window.
A hawk wearing leather armor was tapping on the window with its strong beak.
Slyther glared and opened the window, “Can’t you behave? What are you running around for in the middle of the night?”
The hawk turned into a young girl, pointing out the window, “Maiden, the magic tools that Wu Heng set up in the city are bright now, and there are so many people around them.”
