study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre Willow was grooming the feathers of her owl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking back, she smiled and said, “Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wei’er, go see if Cavina is in the lounge?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre Willow got up and left, and when she came back, Cavina was with her, wearing new protective gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The equipment on her was clearly a notch above what she had before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that the rewards had also been distributed to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For missions like the one to the Pirate Village, the rewards for the accompanying squad are different from those for a vice-executive, in the absence of any special performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On record, they would be noted as second-class merits, and the rewards would be slightly lower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Issued at a third-class level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, accompanying missions are not normal apprehension tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, for an ordinary squad, the choice of six third-class items is still a significant income.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looking for me?” Cavina’s state was much better than when she first arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She also spoke with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng asked, “Do you have any tasks at hand?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I just got back to the association,” she replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng said straightaway, “Tomorrow morning, have your squad assemble at the door; we’re going to investigate a case.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, do we need to prepare anything?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng thought for a moment, “No need, it’s just something on the island; if there’s a need, we can come back in time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, okay!” Xi Ligui nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the study, Wu Heng also packed up a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instructed Andre Willow to head home early and called a horse-drawn carriage to return to his residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pushed open the courtyard gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And saw Mini training her superpower in the courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fireballs were thrown one after another, exploding on a stone pier in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scattered flames spread all around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike at the beginning, when she couldn’t release them or throw them at all, she was gradually becoming proficient in their use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention more difficult control, the simple aggregation of fireballs and then hurling them out, was still no problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Wu Heng come in, Mini jumped and waved, “Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, keep practicing, but don’t get too tired.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng first went to the Bomb Man’s bomb laboratory, where some gunpowder and alchemy powder were laid out on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bomb Man Skeleton was in the process of making rolling thunders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng walked over to a side cabinet with several finished rolling thunders on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Poison Smoke Thunder] [Wind Fire Thunder].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poison Smoke Thunder was more common, seen in towns, and probably not too difficult to make.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wind Fire Thunder was a somewhat higher-grade rolling thunder, with exaggerated effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng put them all into the Space Ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then walked out of the room and returned to his home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When night fell,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng stood on the fourth floor corridor, supporting ‘Sha Naila’ in her light blue nightgown as she descended step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She moved stealthily, like a novice thief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your two little maids haven’t been clinging to you?” Sha Naila smoothed her skirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng picked her up by her waist and while walking towards the bedroom said, “Tonight it’s your turn to cling to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Naila opened her mouth and gave him a light bite on the chest, “I’ll leave a mark, see how you’ll explain it later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t painful, just ticklish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll just confess and involve you, and from then on you can come over openly and aboveboard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Naila’s enthusiasm dimmed slightly, “I’m not ready for that yet, maybe some other time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bedroom door opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Naila’s clothes fell away, and she lay back on the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng nibbled gently along her neck, giving her waves of pleasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then their bodies embraced, enjoying the warmth and closeness each brought the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sha Naila placed her hands against his chest, and as she moaned softly, she intermittently asked, “Why has the port been so chaotic lately?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Saw several groups of workers brawling, delayed quite a few ships from departing.” Shanaela spoke softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s been some problem with the forces in charge of the port workers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaela nodded, “Send your people to check it out, maintain some order.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it, I’ll go tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thin blanket covered the two of them, and they said no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Concentrating on the work at hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lighthouse Street, Old Barrel Tavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The carriage stopped in front of the tavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng, along with several members of the Eleventh Team, alighted from the carriage and looked toward the closed shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was early morning, and the torches nearby still glowed faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the tavern’s entrance, there stood five or six burly, strong men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scanning the carriage, they said with an unfriendly gaze, “The tavern’s not open for business, find somewhere else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Association’s Eleventh Team.” Cavina flashed her emblem, “The Association sent us to help investigate the situation here, go and report to your leader.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing it was someone from the Association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coldness in their eyes tempered slightly, one of them said, “Wait a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then turned and headed inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after, he returned with another bald strong man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man was known to Wu Heng, a confidant of Mackintosh’s, who had passed messages to him a few times before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baldy scanned the Association’s members, and his gaze settled on Wu Heng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward, “Sir.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few guarding the door did not expect such respect towards the man behind, clearly he was not just an ordinary member of the Association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They followed suit with a slight bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How are things now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baldy sighed, “The situation is not too good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the midst of their conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Footsteps echoed from the other side of the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man rode by on horseback, followed by a squad of silver-armored guards, walking briskly over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This attire was the same as the Guard Team that accompanied the Island Master upon his return last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baldy’s brows furrowed slightly and he quickly stepped forward to pay his respects, “Commander Fulvio.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The commander atop the horse spared him a glance, nodded, and then shifted his attention to the group in front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are these people? If they’re related to the port incident, seize them for questioning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rustle~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards behind him stirred to action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baldy, wiping sweat from his brow, hurriedly said, “Commander, Commander, they are from the Association, here to help us with the investigation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Association?” The commander gestured for the Guard Team to hold back, still looking at the group, “I’ve never seen you before, are you new?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng didn’t bother with him and said to Baldy, “Take us to see your leader.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, quite the temper,” the commander snorted coldly, “You’re lucky you’ve been pardoned, otherwise your ass would be in bloom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cavina gripped the hilt of her sword, also giving him a glance, “You’re the one who should feel lucky.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, little lady, I have no interest in you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the atmosphere between the two parties getting tenser, Baldy, fearing trouble, pushed open the tavern door and said, “Lords, let’s talk inside.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he led the group in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both parties ceased their quarreling, focusing on the matter at hand, and entered the tavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inside of the tavern was dead silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the corner, they could see several seated figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering, Wu Heng and his group scanned the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baldy immediately said, “Please, this way, lords, seeing for yourself will make things clear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group followed behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Descending the stone staircase, they went through the cellar and entered an underground space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the final door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the scene before them, everyone’s pupils constricted slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the middle before them, a coffin was placed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mackintosh was dead?\u003C\u002Fp>",1309,"2026-05-30T04:42:17.488Z","2026-06-01T04:30:19.980Z",1,"novelbin.me","300a4f73b581a73dcdd8cdad1383485cd29794c522b0a35bc88c1a799d9b8898","the-necromancer-is-amassing-troops-like-crazy-in-chapter-495","the-necromancer-is-amassing-troops-like-crazy-in-chapter-493",1714,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-necromancer-is-amassing-troops-like-crazy-in-cover.jpg"]
