The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 339: Chapter 282, Blank Letter (One chapter today).

One morning, there wasn’t much going on at the association.

Wu Heng took Andre Willow and left the association directly for the port.

The ship allocated to them had already been docked at the association’s specialty docks and was under the supervision of the staff.

“What are you here for?” The person watching over the ship seemed not to recognize Wu Heng.

Andre Willow showed an assistant certificate, and the other party’s attitude became much more respectful.

A path was cleared, allowing the two to board the ship.

The bodies on the ship had already been cleaned up.

But in the crevices of the deck, you could still see the remaining bloodstains and flecks of flesh.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was a Necromancer himself,

one might suspect that the ship was adorned with ‘Soul Rings’.

“What does the master plan to do with this ship?” Andre Willow asked.

Wu Heng sat down on a remaining chair and said, “I haven’t thought it through yet, do you have any suggestions?”

“If the master doesn’t plan to form a merchant fleet, you could establish a ship fleet. It would be more convenient to pursue pirate groups at sea,” Andre Willow contemplated and then said.

As an assistant to the Vice-executive, she had reviewed quite a lot of information.

She knew more about the situation on Gold and Silver Island than Wu Heng did.

Previously, Wu Heng had only thought of forming a merchant convoy, but now it seemed possible to arm the fleet as well.

To use it for chasing pirate groups.

“Hmm, Wei’er, you’re clever, that’s an idea,” Wu Heng complimented.

The two continued to chat for a bit.

Then they left the ship together.

Walking down the street, they headed in the direction of Lighthouse Street.

…

Wu Heng took Andre Willow first to an Elf Race’s shop.

The ordered bow hadn’t yet arrived, and it would probably take another two or three days.

Wu Heng then went to the weaponry store and bought all the arrows and crossbow bolts in the store.

After making the rounds, it was noon.

They found a nearby tavern and decided to take care of lunch.

The two entered the tavern and sat down in a corner.

Although it was daytime, there were already several tables of guests inside the establishment.

They were drinking, chatting, and discussing recent happenings on the island.

A full-figured, slightly dark-skinned maid came over with a smile and asked, “What would the guests like to have?”

“This Demon Red Flower crab, is it called that because of the crab?” Wu Heng asked, looking at the menu written on the wall.

“Of course not, it is made from Dragon Tail crab, kudzu root, leaves of the Demon Red Flower, bamboo shoots, and fish broth, all stewed together.” The woman laughed, her tone laden with meaning as she said, “Guests can try it, I guarantee it’s quite different from the usual evening fare.”

“All these ingredients are Alchemy Materials, aren’t they?” Andre Willow inquired further.

Kudzu root and leaves of the Demon Red Flower were both parts of alchemical elixirs.

She hadn’t heard before that they could be mixed into food.

“Our chef is skilled in Alchemy cooking, and these dishes are also our specialty, guaranteed to be safe. Of course, they are a bit expensive too; the Demon Red Flower crab costs two silver coins per serving,” the woman said.

“Then we’ll take a serving, and add in Tempura Platter, Root Vegetable Salad, and Beef Patties…”

Hearing that the guest had ordered several of the more expensive dishes in the store, the woman’s smile grew even wider, and she respectfully said she would be back shortly before going to prepare the order.

It wasn’t long before all sorts of dishes were served to their table.

“Enjoy your meal!” The woman curtsied, then retreated to continue serving other customers.

…

The two of them ate.

At that moment, the tavern’s door opened again.

A man dressed as a sailor with a great beard walked in, his gaze sweeping over the entire tavern.

He laughed heartily and walked over to sit at a round table where several others were already seated.

After the maid brought over some drinks, the man took a sip of beer, then forcefully pinched the woman on the buttocks.

He set down the mug and asked, “I heard Bloody Hand is dead?”

“What are you yelling about!” someone said.

The man’s expression stiffened, his gaze once again swept across the hall, and then he leaned forward as if discussing something.

Wu Heng continued to eat, his gaze falling on the group.

His Perception increased, and his hearing was enhanced as well.

But deliberately lowering their voices, they still couldn’t make out what they were discussing.

With a thought, he let Glenda go invisible and move closer.

The group chatted for a while.

The man’s gaze then fell on the woman serving drinks to customers again. He got up, walked over, and scooped her up by the buttocks, saying, “You talk, we’ll go inside for a private chat.”

The woman struggled a bit with annoyance.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

But as soon as a few silver coins were shoved into her bust, she immediately became as docile as a kitten.

She let the man carry her off to the back.

The rest of the group laughed and shouted, “Hurry back, I’ve got something to say to her next.”

…

Glenda flew back, returning to the body.

The scene of their conversation just now also emerged in Wu Heng’s mind.

“Bloody Hand is really dead?” the bearded man asked.

The man across from him said, “Confirmed news, the association dispatched two Vice-executives, and they wiped out the Bloody Hand Pirate Group overnight, not one survived.”

“None survived? Bloody Hand was a level 15 professional, even if he couldn’t win, escaping shouldn’t have been a problem!”

“The warrants for Bloody Hand Pirate Group have all been issued, it’s definitely true,” someone said, then asked, “Tell us, what’s the new information?”

The bearded man said, “In Yeko Kingdom, the old king is critically ill, and the whole kingdom’s situation has tensed up.”

The second one said, “The Iron Barrel Pirate Group is in-fighting, the captain has been killed, and the first mate has taken over the Pirate Group.”

They muttered amongst themselves about why so many pirate groups had run into trouble recently.

Then they all looked at the third person.

The third man said, “The Blood Clan is capturing some Pale-bloods who do not follow the rules. It’s said that those people have gained some of the Blood Clan’s powers through certain means, causing the Blood Clan quite a bit of trouble.”
