Amber pendant is a kind of protective item.

After the first use, you will develop a sense of dependence on the target you see.

There is danger behind, and the amber pendant can still play a protective role, but the side effects of the strange object will only be effective against the target seen for the first time.

That is to say, after seeing Wu Heng once, the target will not be changed afterwards.

Otherwise, every time you use it, you will develop a dependence on it, and then you will not be able to rely on it anymore.

"Did they make things difficult for you?" Wu Heng asked.

Shannella said, "You are under house arrest now. The elders are investigating this matter. It won't be long before they find out about you. Are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid. We are in a free love relationship. What is there to be afraid of?"

"But I have a husband!" Shannara reminded softly.

"That's not what you said in bed."

"Hateful!" Shannella said softly, and then said, "Don't worry, it won't affect you."

"I'm really not afraid, as long as you don't change your mind."

"Yeah, unchanged." Shannara's voice was gentle.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, then said, "Where is your race? I'll find a way to rescue you."

Shannella said seriously: "Don't come, and don't interfere in what's going on here. I'm locked up in my own mansion, and I don't have to worry about food and drink. If you come, it will make things worse."

Wu Heng thought about her living habits and it didn't seem like imprisonment.

Shannella always went to bed late and got up late, and she would never go out unless the fleet was docked.

This was no different from her previous life.

Wu Heng asked again, "So you're going to keep me locked up like this?"

"Once the results of the investigation come out, I will be released." Shannara still explained softly.

"What's the result? Is your husband investigating?" Wu Heng was curious.

Shannella said, "How is that possible? He also has his own woman. We have an agreement to be husband and wife and not to interfere with each other. The Elders' Council suspects that I am using my position as the president to harm the interests of the Star Flower and the Wood Elves, so they are mainly investigating these matters."

"That should be fine."

When Shannara was in Treasure Island, she did not give Wu Heng any special conveniences as the president.

The subsequent discounts were also because Wu Heng’s purchases reached a certain amount, making it the largest customer on the island and the discounts it deserved.

So I'm not afraid of them investigating.

Judging from Shannara's tone, she was just waiting for the results.

"Well, wait a moment. If they don't let you go, I'll find a way to kill them and save you."

Shannella complained, "What are you talking about? This is my house. Why are you coming in here to kill me? That's so ugly."

"I'm just afraid that you'll be wronged."

"It's okay, everything is still under control."

"Well, it's okay." Wu Heng said.

Shannella continued, "I'll let you know if there's any news. Don't worry about my safety."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

"Ok!"

After ending the call, Wu Heng leaned on the edge of the table and thought for a while.

When Shannara returned, she was faced with this incident.

Even if the investigation shows that Shannara did not use her privileges to benefit herself, her own status will be affected.

You also need to prepare yourself in advance.

If she comes back, arrange a boat to pick her up to avoid any problems.

……

Walked out of the room and sat upstairs for a while.

Andwyer also came back from outside.

Dinner was served on the table and several people sat around it to eat.

Wu Heng looked at the two new maids and asked, "Robe, Annette, what are your occupations?"

You can't play with Minnie every day.

You also need some training and professional improvement, otherwise it will be difficult to protect yourself if any danger occurs.

"Master, I'm a thief, level 3." Robe said.

Robe is less than 1.5 meters tall, and he has to put a thick cushion under his chair.

Annette whispered, "Master, I don't have a career yet. I'm saving money to buy a career scroll."

Like Minnie, it is rare for her to not have a job at this age.

"What kind of job do you like?" Wu Heng looked at the other person and asked.

Minnie interrupted and said, "Switch to boxing. Boxing is good. The master's servant is a level 18 boxer. You can learn from him."

Robbe carefully reminded, "Annette, thieves are not bad. I was able to find food when we were hungry before."

Annette looked at the two of them carefully, then looked at Wu Heng, and hesitated to say something, but finally said, "I want to listen to the master."

Wu Heng smiled and said, "Choose the one you like."

The lop-eared rabbit girl hesitated and said, "I want to choose a warrior. They say warriors are healthy and less likely to get sick."

"What's the point of choosing warriors? There are so many of them on the streets." said Minnie.

Andwier also advised: "The master will help you get the job transfer scroll, you don't have to worry about it."

"I still want to choose a warrior!" Annette said, and then asked in a low voice, "Is that okay?"

"Okay, let Minnie take you to the association to get the job transfer scroll tomorrow, and take a walk around the city at the same time." Wu Heng said with a smile.

"Thank you, Master." said Annette.

Minnie and Robbe, on each side, began to persuade her quietly, trying to make her change her mind and choose another career.

After dinner, several people conducted simple training together.

Wu Heng took Minnie and Andvielle to take a bath and rest together.

The other two people hid back in their rooms early.

……

The next day, in the morning.

Wu Heng took the ghost train and went directly to Lopez City.

Wearing the [Concealment Cloak], he walked directly into the VIP room of the Snake Emblem Group.

Waited in the room for a while.

The door opened, and the elf 'Laetili', wearing a blue long dress with lace decorations on the collar and hem, walked in with a smile.

"Good morning, guest!"

"Good morning." Wu Heng took out the emblem and said, "Help me check if the last order has been completed?"

Letili was well prepared. She opened the door and clapped her hands. Several staff members carried in coffins one by one.

"There are seven bodies in total. There are two alchemists, one is an alchemist and the other is an alchemical bomb maker. There are two machine operators, both of whom are equipment improvement operators. There is a blacksmith, a chef, and a landscaper." Letili introduced them one by one.

Probably, I haven’t been here for a while.

The number of corpses is greater than in previous times.

"What levels are they?"

"According to the requirements of your order, they are all level 15 professionals."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows and looked at the other party with some suspicion.

Level 15 special professions are relatively rare.

Whether in various kingdoms or famous chambers of commerce, they are all objects of key protection.

In the past, those who were assassinated or died of old age were understandable, but now there were seven bodies, which made Wu Heng start to doubt whether they were killing people everywhere just to complete the orders.

Even if the corpse is what you need.

But I also don’t want to cause any chaos or leave hidden dangers for myself because of this kind of thing.

Ledily noticed the other person's gaze and explained with a smile, "You haven't been here for a while. We have transferred the bodies from various consortiums. You can rest assured that they will not cause you any trouble."

"Yes." Wu Heng nodded and continued to ask: "Have you found any results for the props that can hide your identity and appearance?"

"Not yet. If there are any props, I will collect them for you as soon as possible." said Letili.

It seems that this kind of prop is really scarce.

"Let's settle the matter." Wu Heng collected all the corpses.

Letili asked the staff to settle the bill and asked, "Sir, do you still want to buy the body?"

"Continue to acquire. I also need a new commission."

"Please wait a moment." Letili personally filled out the commission to continue purchasing corpses.

Then he asked, "What is the new commission?"

Wu Heng took out a blueprint and handed it to the other party, "Build the Flame Furnace Magic Building according to the size and specifications on the blueprint."

Letili took it and looked at it, "No problem."

“How long will it take to complete?”

Leitili replied, "If you are in a hurry, we can speed up the process and deliver it to you in 5 days. The price will be about 5% higher."

"Okay, speed up."

"I'll pick it up in five days."

Letili smiled and nodded, filling out the second commission.

Wu Heng also paid the balance for several skeletons, completing the transaction.

Wait till it's over.

Wu Heng walked out, and Letili and others saw him off.

This attracted a lot of discussion and speculation about his identity.

Get out into the wild, call the Ghost Train, and return to Treasure Island.

……

Return to Treasure Island.

Wu Heng went directly to the association.

I entered the association hall, greeted the staff along the way, and went to the deacon's study.

He knocked on the door gently, and after receiving a response, he opened the door and walked in.

Xilagui was wiping her weapon, and her assistant Shi Yali was sitting beside her, sorting out documents.

Seeing Wu Heng coming in, Xi Lagui raised her eyebrows and asked, "Where have you been recently? I haven't seen you anywhere."

"I left the island and bought some things outside." Wu Heng sat down aside.

Assistant 'Shi Yali' brought tea.

Xi Lagui also sat back in her chair. "I have already submitted the application for the second port you mentioned. Whether it will be approved depends on how you write it."

"When I get back, I'll write a request for expansion and ask the association to allocate funds to us."

If Xi Lagui hadn't mentioned this matter, he would have almost forgotten about it.

The last time he came to see Xilagui, he talked about the construction of a new dedicated port.

At that time, the ships of the Association and Treasure Island will be separated from the commercial and civilian ports.

Wu Heng felt that this would benefit both the association and himself, and he could not afford to pay for it himself.

I just talked about this, and it seems that Xilagui agreed.

"Yeah!" Xilagui nodded.

Wu Heng continued, "I came here to discuss with you the matter of the captain of the Flying Fish Pirates."

Xi Lagui said directly: "He is a third-level wanted criminal, charged with robbery of caravans, murder and other crimes. There is really no way to let him go."

Let him go today and wait until any problems arise.

They are all going to be in trouble.

Therefore, even if he died on the island, he would never be released.

Wu Heng thought about it and felt that it was not right to let him go. Everyone had to take responsibility for his own crimes.

But, he did save Philippa.

If we kill him directly, Philippa will probably find it difficult to get over it.

"Is it possible to give him a chance to make amends? After all, he saved Philippa and the secret talker of the association. He can be considered to have made special contributions." Wu Heng thought for a while and said.

Xi Lagui frowned, "How do you want him to achieve merit?"

"I don't know either. You are the deacon. See how you can make up for his mistake."

Xi Lagui was silent for a moment. "Keep him in jail first. I will tell the headquarters about this matter. If the headquarters is willing to give him a chance and revoke the arrest warrant, we can discuss it. If not, he will be executed directly."

"Okay." Wu Heng nodded.

This is the best way.

Whether he can have a chance to make amends depends on his fate.

If the association does not cancel the wanted warrant for him and releases the person, it will only bring trouble to both parties.

We have finished talking about this matter.

Xilagui smoothed her hair and asked, "Where did you buy the prop that releases cool breeze?"

"In a few days, I'll have someone install one for you." Wu Heng said generously.

"I'll give you money."

"Why would this cost money? The whole island belongs to me. Why would I need to pay for a prop for my good friend?" Wu Heng said indifferently.

There are plenty of air-conditioning stores in the zombie world, so this one won’t make a difference.

However, she will still have to hold down the photovoltaic panels.

Xi Lagui smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank the island owner."

"You're welcome. Do you want a place to stay?"

"want."

The two chatted.

The assistant 'Shi Yali' who was not far away was leaning on the table, watching the two people chatting happily and smiling.

……

Return to the island owner's manor.

The sky had already darkened.

The day just passed like this.

In the training room, an oval-faced, lop-eared bunny girl was holding a long sword and following a skeleton warrior as they were training.

Huhuhaha, the shouts were loud, but there was no momentum.

There is not much difference from the beginning, when Minnie was just a show-off.

"Master!" several people shouted in succession.

"Changed job?"

Minnie sighed, "There's nothing I can do. She's determined to be a soldier."

"I feel like the warriors are pretty good." Annette smiled shyly, then saluted and said, "Thank you, Master."

Wu Heng nodded, "Well, a warrior is also good, the career direction is clear, practice hard, and I will rely on you to protect everyone in the future."

"Yes, Master." Annette's face flushed slightly.

Wu Heng returned to the study room and continued training and chatting with several maids.

The entire island owner's manor is more lively than before.

……

The next day, zombie world.

Wuyang Commercial Street.

The skeleton army formed a tight spear formation.

Trampling the corpses on the ground, he moved forward step by step.

The zombie that pounced over was pierced by the spear, struggled, and was pushed back little by little.

In the end, he was turned into a hornet's nest and fell to the ground.

Ding~!
