The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse-Chapter 395 - 331, You Also Collect Intelligence For Me

Chapter 395 -331, You Also Collect Intelligence For Me

Li Yahong, flushed with annoyance, hammered the other’s chest twice before looking up and responding.

It wasn’t until her jacket had been taken off that Li Yahong turned away and said, “No, I have to take a shower first, I’m all sweaty.”

Wu Heng unfastened her chest wrap with one hand, gave her lower back a light pat, “Hurry up then.”

“Really, you’re like this as soon as you arrive.” Li Yahong held her chest clothing, complaining softly.

After she entered the bathroom, Wu Heng also took off his clothes and followed in.

…

Coming out of the bathroom.

Wrapped in bath towels, the two of them walked out and sat at the edge of the bed.

Wu Heng took out two elixirs and placed them on the table, “The new potions are out, here are two for you.”

Li Yahong, toweling her damp hair, arched an eyebrow.

Corpse core potions, which hadn’t been seen for a while, were mainly due to a lack of reports of Mutated Zombies nearby.

Now, having established a base in the city, that was indeed the right move.

“Am I taking two for myself? Shouldn’t some be distributed to others? After all, I’ve taken it so many times and still haven’t awakened any superpower.”

Wu Heng pulled her into his embrace and said, “Let’s consider others later; you manage things here, you need to have a certain amount of strength.”

“Alright, should I drink them now?”

“Hmm!”

Without saying much else, Li Yahong opened the potions and drank both bottles in succession.

A brief sting in her body followed, after which everything returned to normal.

Li Yahong could distinctly feel an improvement in her physical strength.

Grabbing thin air then opening her palm again, she revealed a mosquito she had squished.

“Wow, I have the shadowless hand now,” Li Yahong exclaimed.

She washed her hands in the bathroom and came back with a smile, saying, “You’re so nice!”

“Not angry anymore?”

“Still angry, who asked you to stay away for so many days?” Li Yahong continued to pout.

Wu Heng drew her closer, “I’ve been busy there, also setting up a new market.”

“Moreover!” Li Yahong went on, “The passenger terminal needs more food and strong crossbows, and in the bag I brought, is the gold and silver I’ve recently collected.”

“Mhm, I knew I could count on you.”

“Really now.”

…

Staying at the passenger terminal until dusk, looking at the time, planning to leave.

Li Yahong helped him dress, quietly complaining, “Really, it’s like sneaking around, in such a hurry, and even timing the return.”

Wu Heng laughed at her teasing, “You are the official one.”

“What, you really have someone else? Is it Qi Hancai? I’ve had my suspicions about her for a long time,” Li Yahong immediately said.

Wu Heng pinched her face playfully, “What wild guesses.”

“Then when will you come again?” Li Yahong continued to ask.

“In a few days.”

“What about the food and strong crossbows I need?”

“Let’s do this, when the time comes, I’ll have the convoy deliver them along the perimeter road; it’ll take just over two days,” Wu Heng thought for a moment and said.

“That works!”

After they had discussed and agreed.

Wu Heng picked up the backpack full of gold and silver from the ground and glanced at it.

Picking it up, it rustled heavily, weighing at least over a thousand grams.

In a different world, one could live a life of luxury with this.

He stored it in his Space Ring and walked out directly.

He mounted the Skeleton Flying Dragon, waved goodbye, and headed towards the old factory area.

The Flying Dragon landed on the rooftop of the old factory area.

Wu Heng returned to his dorm, opened the boundary door, and went back to Gold and Silver Island.

…

Back at the place of residence.

After dinner.

Wu Heng distributed the remaining four potions to Mini and Andre Willow.

Both women knew the potion’s value.

They joyfully accepted it and took it immediately.

When the night deepened, they returned to their rooms to rest.

…

The next day, at the association.

Wu Heng sat at the desk, checking the latest updates on the fugitive list.

Some new Pirate Groups had been added, along with the usual fugitives.

And “Philippa,” the bounty on her head, had already reached 650 silver coins, had she not just made the list.

Given her estimated age, her level wouldn’t be too high, and she might even be credited with a third-class merit.

Thump thump~!

The door was knocked, and Andre Willow came in with a woman.

“Master, Mrs. Millicent has arrived,” Andre Willow said.

Millicent was the name of “Philippa’s” mother, a woman not yet forty, with very fair skin and a plump figure.

“Master!” the woman said in a lowered voice, also quietly calling out.

“You can call me Deputy Steward; you don’t need to follow their lead,” Wu Heng said.

It was still somewhat strange to be called master by his subordinate’s mother.

“Yes, Deputy Steward.”

Wu Heng continued, “The day before yesterday, I met your daughter, and she wanted me to arrange a job for you. Have you done anything before?”

The woman carefully looked up and said, “I used to run an inn for a while, but there weren’t many people in the village, so it eventually closed.”

It simply wasn’t viable to open an inn in a village.

But it did count as having some experience in doing business.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and then said, “If I buy you a shop and have you open a tavern, can you manage it?”

“I…, I don’t know,” the woman replied, bowing her head.

Gold and Silver Island was different from the village she had previously lived in.

This place was a bustling trade center, with a great many sailors and trading groups entering the port daily.

Taverns of that sort did quite well here.

They would also serve as a source of information for him.

After a moment of consideration, he looked up and said, “Let’s give it a try; after all, it wasn’t easy to leave the village. You should have a better life.”

The woman’s expression briefly paused, “You’re right!”

“Wei’er.”Update by n0vgo.c0

“Master,” Andre Willow looked over.

“Go to the municipal offices and buy a shop. Pick a location that’s a bit better, and have someone else make the purchase, not you,” Wu Heng instructed directly.

“Understood, Master.”

Andre Willow left.

The room was now left with only Wu Heng and the woman standing in the middle.

“Sir, how is my daughter doing now?” The woman hesitated for a moment before asking.

“Quite well, at least better than you,” he replied.

Hearing that her daughter was doing well, the woman’s face relaxed quite a bit as she quietly said, “Philippa has the temperament of a boy; please be patient with her if there’s anything lacking.”

“No problem; her character is quite good.”

“Thank you.”

Wu Heng looked at her and continued to ask, “What is your profession?”

“I don’t have a profession yet!”

Hearing this, Wu Heng’s brow furrowed slightly.

In a world where everyone had a profession, it was quite unusual not to have one at her age.

“How old are you?”

“38.”

Wu Heng thought a bit and continued, “Go wait inside for a while.”

Following his command, the woman walked into a room on the side.

Wu Heng called over a staff member at the door and said, “Go to the front desk and get a ‘Investigator’ Profession Change Scroll.”

“Understood, Deputy Steward.”

It wasn’t long before the Profession Change Scroll was brought over.

After the staff member left, he handed the scroll to the woman, “This scroll is for you, your profession will be Investigator. In the future, while managing the tavern, you will also be responsible for gathering information for me.”

The job characteristics of an Investigator revolve around observation and recording.

They are often employed in clerical positions and are popular in various forces.

It’s the kind of profession where, once you change, you won’t worry about finding a job.

But the downside is clear, as chosen laborers, there’s little combat capability, and high-level powerhouses rarely emerge.

Seeing the scroll handed to her, the woman immediately showed a delighted expression, “Tha, thank you, Deputy Steward.”

“Hmm, go ahead and change professions,” he said.

The woman tore open the scroll, and a beam of light penetrated her body.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.

As the light faded, her demeanor and state transformed.

Her eyes became brighter, and the look in her eyes, no longer timid, gave off an impression of keen observation.

Wu Heng said, “As an Investigator, your advancement will focus on observation and collection. Although your age of profession change is a bit older, if you pay more attention to your surroundings, you can catch up…”

“Yes, I’ll work hard,” she affirmed.

“Alright, do well. Although you’re not currently considered part of the guild, you are indeed my informant. Work for a few years, and when you no longer wish to continue, I’ll help you leave and arrange a new job for you.”

“Thank you, Sir.”
