Isn’t it a bit too early?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was different from last time outside the military’s market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, Yang Long spoke more, but his tone was more courteous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the switch in roles between the two sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng had to be more discreet at the military market, and likewise, the other party had to restrain themselves here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There happens to be some grain, so we’re collecting a bit of gold in advance for use once order is restored.” Wu Heng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Long’s expression paused, and in the end, he only said one thing, “Smart!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Captain Yang, have you come this time to exchange for grain as well?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Long nodded, “Yes, and I’ve also brought some gold. The pricing for your weapons and military equipment here, doesn’t it seem a bit out of line with the market…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng understood what he meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He explained, “Rest assured, Captain Yang, we only exchange grain, not guns and ammunition. You still dominate the market.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guns and ammunition were even more important to Wu Heng than grain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grain could be bought at any time; the Wood Elves had elixirs that stimulated plant growth, so there was definitely a sufficient supply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, ammunition production had not yet been restored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s just that the prices are too low; it’s difficult for us to exchange with you,” Yang Long continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We don’t lack guns and ammunition at the moment either; if needed, we would also go to the military side to exchange.” Wu Heng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Long was without recourse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the defensive forces of the market, they really weren’t lacking in guns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he didn’t dwell on the topic any further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he continued, “Brother, tell me the truth, are you going to continue collecting gold later on?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, the price remains the same.

They can devise ways to kill level-one Mutated Zombies successfully,” Qi Hancai explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This point was indeed quite convincing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Human strength alone can’t contend with Mutated Zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with modern weapons, they are able to kill level-one Mutated Zombies, and humans are best at indirect kills, probably using traps or long-range takedowns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That does make sense,” Wu Heng conceded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hancai smiled and said, “The market has just opened, and some people are definitely still watching from the outside. After a while, we’re likely to see people selling level-two Mutated Corpse Cores.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng agreed with this view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The market here was better suited for business than the passenger station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, mobilizing everyone to gather spoils of war was much quicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, the market has done well. For now, slow down on other tasks and maintain the market here,” Wu Heng instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng continued, “That’s it for now, be careful in your work.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hancai left the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng collected all the gold and Corpse Cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he opened the Boundary Door and headed to Gold and Silver Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He appeared in the fourth-floor study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng went directly to the Alchemy Room and placed the four level-one Corpse Cores on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, on the shelf beside him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were two more bottles of finished elixirs made from level-one Corpse Cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put them into his Space Ring and immediately left the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming down from upstairs,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mini and Andre Willow were fitting a little owl with a vest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fluffy feathers were tightly bound, making the head look comically large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it still looked quite cute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the owl getting dressed, Wu Heng was reminded of ‘Yuli’, who could transform into an eagle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The armor on her body was a magical item that could transform into various types of armor depending on the form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Wu Heng come down, the two called out ‘Master’ in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Andre Willow continued, “Master, the bounty for killing the pirates last time has been issued, along with a third-level merit, which you can collect at the front desk.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two pirate groups were the ‘Poison Blade Pirate Group’ and the ‘Red Crown Pirate Group’, which were defeated during the last rescue of ‘Xi Ligui’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Call me tomorrow morning, and we’ll go to the association together,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Mini mentioned the situation with the pirate radio station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Philippa had already started recruiting new sailors and had changed some of the weapons configuration on the ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the pirate group was not strong,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the equipment on the ship was definitely not lacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there were no serious intel updates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mini was quite willing to check the radio for information every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she had read many ‘Straw Hat Crew’ comics and was curious about and yearned for the pirate life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would enter the room several times a day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After discussing the official matters, Chef Number One’s dinner was also ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three sat down at the dining table and ate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng directly gave two elixirs to the two women to continue increasing their Constitution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The women cheered and took the elixirs in the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the effects of the elixir wore off,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they did a simple training before returning to their room to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng and Andre Willow went to the association together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While passing through the association hall,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they checked the rewards available for a third-level merit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Wu Heng’s level increased, some of the skills and magical items that he had were no longer of much use to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After spending a while selecting from the Skill Books, he found an ‘Eagle Eye Technique’ skill book that seemed quite decent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle Eye Technique\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Description: You can create an invisible sensor, place it at a location, and engage in observation and eavesdropping.
