The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 177: Chapter 159, Give us our things back _1

The figure was overweight, decked out in a ballooning dark-blue suit.

Adorned with gold and silver jewelry, he seemed to be of higher status.

In the pub of the Outer City Area, when one dares to dress this way, it indicates absolute confidence in oneself or their bodyguard.

The man naturally took the seat opposite them.

Basen and Bawudong were both highly alert and watched him closely.

Wu Heng searched his memory.

It seemed like he didn’t recognize the man.

But he wasn’t sure.

After all, he had spent some time in Lundham City and had caught several fugitives in succession.

It was possible that he might have encountered this man at some point.

His status as the Association’s team captain still held some weight around here.

Seeing no malice from the man, Wu Heng casually replied, “Hmm, what brings you to the Outer City Area for drinks today?”

The corpulent man paused, studying Wu Heng up and down anew.

With a smile still on his face, he leaned back in his chair, twirling his ring on his finger, “Captain Wu Heng, have you truly forgotten me?”

Wu Heng looked at him again, “I seem to have forgotten somewhat, perhaps you could jog my memory.”

The man stared at Wu Heng once more.

Then he laughed and said, “It’s normal for the Captain to forget me. When you were arresting the fugitive last time, there were so many people, indeed it’s not easy to remember.”

Wu Heng watched him.

He felt that the man’s answer was rather vague, and his attitude was somewhat inconsistent with what it had been earlier.

It seemed as though he was brushing Wu Heng off.

Before Wu Heng could probe any further,

The man picked up his glass, rose to his feet and said, “Please continue, Captain Wu Heng, I must take my leave now.”

Finishing his statement, the man promptly left without looking back.

Watching him, Wu Heng glanced sideways.

The ‘invisible’ Glenda followed after him.

Not long after, Glenda flew back and directly entered Wu Heng’s body.

The scene outside came into view in his mind.

The fat man walked out of the pub and was immediately surrounded by a few bodyguards.

You could see the fat man talking to someone, but all the sounds were cut off by a wave of energy. Glenda, who was not far away, couldn’t hear the conversation.

After leaving the alley, they boarded a carriage and headed for the inner city.

At this point, Glenda returned directly.

This fat man…

Could he have been testing him?

From chatting with Wu Heng to casually asking a couple of questions,

It was as if he was confirming something.

He seemed to have let his guard down a bit, and the man seemed to have detected something from the conversation.

He made a mental note to ask Wen Mansha to look into this fat man’s identity later.

Given his attire, he probably wasn’t an ordinary person.

After sitting in the pub for a while,

He listened to the bard’s song. Wu Heng left the pub with the skeleton and ‘Glenda’.

He didn’t let Xiao Xiao out in such a place.

After all, children should not be exposed to this kind of environment.

…

By the time he returned to his residence, it was already somewhat dark.

Mini was preparing dinner, and the two of them were waiting for him.

Even though Wu Heng had some drinks at the bar and wasn’t really hungry, he hadn’t eaten much.

Upon seeing they were waiting for him, he sat down at the table to chat while eating.

Andre Willow spoke about the business at the shop.

Business had been improving these past few days.

Not only had the number of customers increased, but people also started to buy items from the store in bulk to sell in other cities.

This was good news, as the sales volume would increase dramatically.

After they finished eating, Wu Heng continued to ask, “Wei’er, Mini, what are your professions?”

Andre Willow replied softly, “I am a Woodland Ranger, at level 7.”

Wu Heng looked at the white-haired, animal-eared girl.

She had a rare profession and her level wasn’t low either.

How did she end up being mixed up into slavery for him?

Seeing her gloomy mood, he didn’t press for more details.

In this world, countless strong individuals died outside. It wasn’t unusual for some to become slaves for various reasons.

“What about Mini?” Wu Heng looked up.

On the other side, he saw Mini with a despairing expression.

Her pair of rabbit ears drooped lifelessly. She carefully looked up towards him and said softly, “Master, I don’t have a profession. The village I used to live in was poor, and we didn’t have any legacies.”

Um…

Mini was already 16 years old, and according to the rules of this world,

She should have selected a profession a long time ago.

Now that she still hadn’t chosen a profession, it suggested that she had essentially given up on the path of being a professional.

Looking at her pitiful expression,

Wu Heng continued to ask, “What profession do you desire? I’ll get a Job Change Certificate for you tomorrow.”

Mini blinked in surprise, her eyes wide with disbelief, “Really?”

“Yes, it’s nothing. As a Captain, getting a Job Change Certificate is not difficult,” Wu Heng replied casually.

Job Certificates were issued downward by the Association.

Of course, they had to be purchased with money.

Spending some money to help his maidservants choose a profession wasn’t a losing deal.

“I’m not sure what to choose! If Master has any recommendations, I will listen to Master.”

Wu Heng thought for a while and said, “You could be a Ranger or a Martial Artist. A ranger is ranged and can scout; late starters won’t be affected too much. As for Martial Artist, Bawudong can teach you, it’s like having a teacher guiding you.”

“Sister Wei’er is a Ranger, so I’ll be a Martial Artist!” Mini stated after contemplating.

Being a Ranger was a common profession.

On the other hand, a Martial Artist was relatively rare and they had formidable close combat abilities.

“Okay, just be prepared. Training can be tough, so don’t cry when the time comes,” Wu Heng teased.

However, Mini took it seriously, “I’m not afraid of hardships, as long as I can have my fill of food.”
