Chapter 996, 50 Compensation
Dinner.
The crystal chandeliers in the restaurant were bright, and Letilly and the maids were chatting and laughing while enjoying dinner.
It seems that he is not at all stage-frightened or reserved.
Letili spoke with a smile and glanced at the witch Viola who was sitting to the side.
At first, I just thought she was a new maid, but now I remembered her identity, a dangerous person on the association's wanted list.
Moreover, this is a wanted order issued by our headquarters, so the level must be above 18.
"Miss Viola!" Letilly took a sip of red wine, her red lips slightly raised, "I didn't expect you to join Treasure Island too."
"Hmm!" Viola raised her eyes coldly.
No one felt strange being recognized.
The head of a consortium may not necessarily have a high rank, but he must have a more comprehensive control over all aspects, and it is not surprising that he remembers some key wanted criminals.
Letili still kept smiling, "I still hope you can take care of me in Treasure Island."
Being able to live in the island owner's mansion proves Viola's identity. And unlike the other maids, this wanted criminal is of high level and has real skills.
You will definitely be entrusted with important tasks in the future.
Viola glanced at Wu Heng, nodded slightly, and said nothing.
In front of the head of the consortium, Viola still showed the arrogant attitude of a level 18 professional.
Letili continued chatting with Minnie, from dressing to some interesting things outside.
Wu Heng listened to the conversation between several people.
It can be seen that Letili is trying hard to improve her relationship with the Island Master's Mansion, and she has a clear positioning and is on good terms with the maids.
As far as Wu Heng was concerned, he was not opposed to Letili.
Smart, capable, and able to judge the situation.
Moreover, the appearance is pleasing to the eye, a standard elf image.
The dinner is over.
Wu Heng glanced at the sky and said, "There are a few new movies in the Island Master's Mansion. Let Minnie and the others take you to watch them before you go back."
There was a flash of surprise in Letili's eyes, "Thank you, sir."
Minnie took Letili to the home theater. When they opened the door, they saw two dolls, one big and one small, sitting in front of the screen playing games.
The younger one suddenly turned around and said, "Sister Letili."
Letili's eyes widened and she froze in place.
Minnie said, "Xiaoxiao! The master asked us to take Miss Letilie to the movies."
"Oh!" Xiao Xiao nodded, and then said to Benny: "Let's go to the entertainment city."
"It's too late. Let's just watch some TV at home."
"Okay, let's go look at the cartoon script."
The two puppets, one big and one small, discussed with each other, then walked out of the room and went upstairs.
Letili was still frozen in place. She had never seen a talking puppet before, and she couldn't understand why the puppet knew her.
"Don't worry about it." Minnie pulled her into the room, "These two are the ghosts of the master, and the puppets are custom-made props from the headquarters."
"Oh." Letili nodded to show that she understood.
Sitting in the theater, the screen lights up and the movie starts playing.
……
In the study, Wu Heng had just made tea for himself when Xiao Xiao and Benny rushed in through the door.
The two dolls broke away from the display cabinet and flew out in ghost form.
"What's wrong?" Wu Heng asked.
Xiao Xiao circled around Wu Heng as if to seek credit, "Sister Leitili is here and wants to watch a movie, so we gave up the audio-visual room to us."
Wu Heng raised his eyebrows and followed the compliment, “Xiaoxiao is really sensible.”
"Hehe~!" Xiao Xiao smiled happily and asked, "Sister Letili, are you going to stay here tonight? Why aren't you going home so late?"
"We went back after watching the movie." Wu Heng explained.
Benny on the side said: "She wishes your uncle would allow her to stay."
"Ah? Is she going to be a maid too?" Xiaoxiao tilted her head, a little confused.
In her opinion, Letili was also a small boss in a place, so why would she work as a maid!
Benny didn't explain and said, "Xiaoxiao, didn't we agree to go and read the new script?"
"Oh, right!" Xiao Xiao immediately remembered and said to Wu Heng, "Uncle, let's go read the script of the cartoon."
"Go!" Wu Heng nodded.
The two ghosts went through the wall one after the other.
Wu Heng picked up the teacup and turned his gaze to the empress who was writing furiously at the desk, "Do all the Sky Foxes have so many tails?"
The queen didn't even raise her head. "If you want to ask me what level I was before, just tell me."
"I'm just curious about why you are different from Wei'er and the others." Wu Heng pretended to be calm and took a sip of tea.
"The characteristic of the Sky Fox Clan is that the tail grows with the level." The Queen finally put down her pen, "I am level 20, so I have nine tails."
really!
When I and Glenda were 'cricketing' her from behind, I suspected she was level 20.
Wu Heng then asked, "Ghosts can be created above level 18, why are they only appearing now when you are level 20?"
The empress raised her head suddenly, a trace of anger flashing in her eyes, "It was sealed in the body by the ritual! How come you don't understand anything? No wonder Xiaoxiao said you know nothing about the dead!"
Wu Heng automatically filtered out her sarcasm and said, "Do you remember that ritual? Teach me."
"No!" the Queen said firmly.
Wu Heng nodded and continued drinking tea.
The queen looked at him again, and her tone suddenly softened, "Actually... there is something I want to ask you for help with."
"Just say it, why are you being polite?"
"Help me find the members of the Sky Fox Tribe." The empress's voice was rarely soft. "When I woke up, my hometown had become the territory of humans."
"The Kingdom of Yeko?" Wu Heng asked subconsciously.
"Within the territory of the Celtic Kingdom." The queen replied.
Wu Heng nodded.
When I first heard about the Sky Fox Clan, I thought it was referring to the Fox Clan in the "Oath of the Three Crowns" of the Yeko Kingdom.
Now I see that the location doesn't match.
"Thousands of years have passed. What would happen even if we find it?"
The queen's eyes drifted to the window and she said calmly, "I just wanted to see. I am the great fox girl of the Sky Fox Clan. That is my people."
Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, it shouldn't be hard to find."
The queen smiled and said, "If they can find it, I will ask them to build a church for you."
"Okay, I'll ask for you tomorrow. The Hongwen Society and the Hunters should have records." Wu Heng said.
The associations were established all over the continent, and clear records were kept in every region.
If this Sky Fox tribe still exists, it should not be difficult to find out.
"Well! Waiting for your good news." The queen nodded with a smile.
Wu Heng stopped talking and continued to drink tea.
Outside the window, Letili was being escorted out of the mansion by the maids.
Wu Heng glanced at the sky, said hello to the ghosts, and went downstairs to wash up and rest.
……
The next day, in the morning.
The sun shone through the gauze curtains into the study. Wu Heng was chatting with the ghosts when Minnie's crisp voice came from downstairs, "Master! Assistant Shi Yali called!"
Many times, Wu Heng's cell phone was unreachable. Therefore, when the association had something to do, they would call the island owner's house, and if there was something important, Minnie would also pass it on to herself.
"Okay, I'll go down now." Wu Heng agreed, got up and went downstairs.
I walked to the landline and picked up the call, "Hello?"
In the microphone, Shi Yali's voice was serious as if she was talking about official business. "Chief Wu Heng, several elders from our headquarters have come to ask when you are free so that they can visit you at the Island Lord's Mansion."
An elder from our headquarters?
No wonder he is so serious today, there is someone next to him.
Wu Heng asked: "Is it just a visit, or is there something else?"
There was a slight inquiry from the other end of the phone, and then Shi Yali's voice was amplified again, "It's the compensation promised by the headquarters, and I just happened to be planning to visit you."
"No need to go to such trouble. I just happen to be going to the association." Wu Heng said.
"Okay, we'll wait for you to come." Shi Yali said and hung up the phone.
Wu Heng put the microphone back, and Minnie had already prepared her coat to go out.
After helping him put on the complicated but gorgeous dress, he casually asked, "Are you from our headquarters?"
"They said it was compensation from our headquarters." Wu Heng said.
"Compensation from headquarters?" Minnie looked puzzled.
Wu Heng tapped her forehead lightly, "Did you forget? Last time when they let the religious leader go, they promised to pay a large sum of money. As the guarantor, the association must naturally supervise the execution."
Minnie's eyes lit up: "It's been so long!"
Indeed, from the time he let the religious leader go until now, Wu Heng not only resolved the war in the Yeke Kingdom, but also spent a long time relaxing on the Treasure Island.
This compensation has just been sent.
If the association hadn’t guaranteed it, I’m afraid the Vatican would have cheated again.
After getting dressed, Wu Heng rubbed Minnie's little head, released the [Teleportation Spell], and disappeared.
……
The figure reappeared and had arrived at the courtyard of the deacon's residence.
We walked along the corridor at the back door of the association and finally stopped in front of the deacon's study.
After knocking twice, he pushed the door open and walked in.
There were seven people in the room. In addition to the two elf sisters, there were five visitors sitting on the sofa and chairs, two elves, a dwarf, a human, and a dwarf.
A very standard five-man team configuration.
"Master Chief!" Xilagui stood up suddenly from behind the desk.
The five people on the sofa also woke up as if from a dream. They stood up and saluted in unison. The elf in the front bowed gracefully, "Lucian! Greetings, Chief Wu Heng."
The elders behind him also introduced themselves, with caution and awe in their tone.
From the outside world’s perspective, Wu Heng’s title is no longer just the youngest leader, the great detective who solves cases, or the visionary who improves various items.
Instead, he was a ruthless man who killed two Vatican heroes and destroyed the physical body of the religious leader.
It is unimaginable that he is so young and yet has already made the entire Vatican bow down to him.
When you do things yourself, you naturally have to be more careful.
Wu Heng nodded calmly, "Sit down."
After everyone sat down again, Xilagui gave up the main seat.
"Captain Wu Heng!" The leading elf elder stood up again and said, "According to the order of Lord Hadarai, we have brought the compensation from the Church and the meritorious rewards from the association."
As he spoke, three rare items, a skill book, and a space sachet appeared on the table.
The elf elder continued, "Including the space sachet, there are five rare items in total. Inside the sachet are 500,000 gold coins raised by the Holy See. Please take a look."
On the side, Xi Lagui and Shi Yali took a breath of cold air.
This number is probably enough to buy a small kingdom!
The two looked at each other and finally understood why Wu Heng let the other party go. He really spent a lot of money to protect the religious leader.
Wu Heng glanced at the strange objects and didn't expect that a space sachet was also considered one.
The space sachet is indeed a good prop, and the price is also very high, but I already have two, plus a space belt.
There's not much use in having so many.
He handed the space sachet to Shi Yali beside him and said, "Count the gold coins."
Shi Yali nodded, took the sachet, and began to count the gold coins inside.
Wu Heng's eyes fell on the remaining strange objects.
The first thing I noticed was a dice.
[Gygax's Game Board (Strange Item)]
[Effect: Force 2 to 5 people to participate in the game.]
【Side effect: Bear the consequences of the game.】
(Description: Are you ready for an exciting game?)
I rely on!
That item from Grumpy Dwarf.
At that time, it was these people who were forcibly pulled into the game by this prop, and killed the religious leader under the game mechanism.
After several people's analysis, they suspected that this strange object had its own consciousness, discovered their conflict, and led the two to attack each other.
Moreover, judging from the situation at the time, the game wanted to kill himself, but he did not expect that he had special attributes and was killed by the religious leader.
Now this reward is given directly to myself.
Wu Heng clearly felt that this was something the dwarf no longer wanted.
Submit it to the association, and then send it to yourself.
Take a deep breath.
Look back at the dice!
This strange item is actually very powerful. It can trap four heroes and prevent them from leaving unless they play the game.
This alone makes it the most powerful control item that I have ever seen.
The main thing is that this strange object is not under one's control, and anyone who enters it may be in danger.
After looking at the dice, continue looking at the rest of the items.
The second item is a staff.
[Cursed Ash Staff (Strange Item)]
[Effect: Spell system amplification +150%, the final effect of the spell will have burning damage. ]
[Side effects: Cast the spell three times, and part of the body will be carbonized.]
(Description: An ancient staff wrapped in stardust and charred vines, which glows red when injected with magic.)
A staff of conjuration!
He must have discovered that when he was hunting down the religious leader, he used a spell similar to a curse, and thus prepared such a strange item for himself.
The third item is a wizard hat.
[Crown of Lies (Special Item)]
[Description: One's own words are woven into mental illusions, causing the listener to fall into false cognition.]
[Side effects: With use, the ability to judge truth and lies is lost. ]
(Description: A hat worn by the Whisperer, who will make all your lies come true.)
Wu Heng raised his eyebrows.
Psychic fantasy hat.
The words you say lead the listeners into a false perception.
This hat works great!
The side effects are actually not serious. As the drug is used, you will lose the ability to distinguish between truth and lies.
It can be understood that after being deceived so many times, even you yourself can't tell the truth from the false.
As long as you don't use it for a long time, there shouldn't be any problem.
Moreover, compared with the previous ones, I feel this one is the most effective.
The last one is a skill book.
【Death Knell】
(Description: Designate an area, and a bell filled with negative energy will ring, causing all creatures within the area to enter a negative state of fear, confusion, etc.
All undead units enter a frenzy state.)
