The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 196: Chapter 174, Same Goal (Update first, recovery tomorrow.)_2

“At the Outer City Area?”

“Yeah, at the ‘Black Antelope Horn Tavern’ in the Outer City Area. You’ll find all sorts there, even some fugitives hide out there. No one really interferes.” Mata continued to explain.

Wu Heng sat in his seat, thinking.

Even though ‘Anel’ hadn’t been caught yet, it was pretty much confirmed that he was the one responsible.

As long as they were careful, there shouldn’t be a problem.

They couldn’t just keep hiding here, not completing the mission.

After deciding, he directly said, “Send word to Duke. When he comes, we’ll set out.”

“Yes, captain.” Mata stood up and gave an instruction to the staff outside the door.

Then she sat back down in the room, waiting silently.

Not long after, Duke walked in, swaggering while carrying his battle-ax and a grilled cake.

Seeing Wu Heng and Mata sitting in the room, he smiled with slight embarrassment.

After stuffing the grilled cake into his backpack, he asked, “Captain, do we have a mission?”

Wu Heng nodded. “Mata brought information about a mission. It’s in the Outer City Area again. Let’s go there together.”

“Okay, Captain.”

The group made quick preparations.

Then they left the association directly and made their way towards the Outer City Area.

…

Black Antelope Horn Tavern.

The group pushed the door open and entered.

Instantly, they felt several pairs of wary eyes scanning them.

As time passed, every gang and organization already knew about the newly formed twelfth squad from the association, especially because of the distinct characteristics of Wu Heng, he was rather recognizable all over Lundham City.

Along with the local Duke and Mata, they would likely be recognized as the association’s members as soon as they went out.

Wu Heng and his people entered the tavern and settled down at a vacant spot.

The bartender immediately approached them with a full-faced smile, asking what they would like to drink.

The trio ordered some alcohol and a few side dishes.

They completely looked like they came for a meal.

As the drinks and food were served, the three of them started chatting and eating.

Seeing no suspicious movements, the onlookers gradually relaxed their caution.

Mata took a sip of her beer and quietly said, “The guy at the stairs leading to the second floor is on guard. They’ve booked a room upstairs, we just don’t know which room specifically or if there is a wanted man among them.”

“No rush, let’s wait and see.” Wu Heng directly replied.

Meanwhile, he released his spirit creature, ‘Glenda’, making a simple hand signal. Glenda immediately flew upstairs.

Gradually, more people started to fill up the tavern.

Some began to get loud and boastful, drinking and chatting, while some even flirted with the girls serving alcohol, starting to get touchy.

The women didn’t dodge, simply reciprocating a bit, hoping to get some tips.

Duke and Mata, were both seeming a bit out of place.

While sipping their drinks, their eyes involuntarily scanned their surroundings.

They were trying their best to put on a poor act.

Fortunately, with all the noise and chaos, they were no longer the center of attention, as other gang members had also entered.

The observers had too many people to keep track of.

After a while, Glenda returned from upstairs and entered Wu Heng’s body.

Simultaneously, the images from the upstairs room popped up in front of him.

Two different groups of people were sitting on either side of a long rectangular table.

One side was clearly a local gang, dressed raggedly, but each member had the same gang tattoo on their bare arms and wrists.

The other side consisted of several middle-aged men, clad in silver armor, also seeming like tough individuals to deal with.

The leading man had a hideous scar across his face, looking like a centipede crawling on his face.

Wu Heng had specifically compared them with the wanted list of the association before coming.

The man with the scar, to his surprise, was a close match to one of the wanted men, a level three felon.

From Glenda’s perspective, it seemed like it was sitting at the side of the wooden table.

Much like a judge in a game of Go, watching both sides negotiate.

“I’m already offering you 20% less than the market price. Do you think it would be this cheap if we weren’t desperate to get rid of this batch?” The scarred man spoke sternly.

The gang leader coldly chuckled, “Indeed, but you ask for immediate payment in silver coins. Which gang can pay this much all at once, unless it’s a consortium or one of the big merchants, but would they deal with you?”

“Don’t you want this batch?” The scarred man continued.

“Give me the batch today. I’ll sell it in three days. Then we split the money, we all make a profit.” The gang leader offered this proposal.

The room went quiet upon his words.

The scarred man’s side seemed taken aback. They didn’t expect such a brazen tactic. Still, the man had the audacity to suggest it.

It meant not paying a single penny and splitting the goods evenly. To them, for the merchandise that they had risked their lives for, the offer was more like robbery.

After taking a while to react,

With a thud, the scarred man banged his fist on the table.

Drinks splashed everywhere.

Both groups of men immediately became alert. Though they didn’t draw their weapons, they held their hands near the hilt of their swords.

“What, not satisfied?” The gang leader wasn’t fazed and countered.

“It seems you have no sincerity at all. Please leave, no need to see you off.” The scarred man commanded the group to leave.

The gang leader raised an eyebrow, “Not satisfied? Well, we can continue our discussion…”

Seeing this,

The perspective began to change.

Glenda flew through the wall and returned.

“Captain, what are we waiting for?” Duke asked quietly in a sly manner, looking as if they were sneaking out without paying the bill.
