三级a午夜

On the sides, level-five skeletons armed with spears were practicing against dummies and cloth packages.

The entire space echoed with the sound of spear piercing targets.

Big Head Skeleton was missing, probably out patrolling and killing zombies with the other skeletons.

Wu Heng instructed someone nearby, “Open the lid.”

Two skeletons approached and opened the coffin lid, revealing the body wrapped in linen inside.

Upon seeing, Wu Heng swiftly applied the Bone Manipulation Skill.

Necromancy slowly enveloped the body in the coffin.

[Summoned creature’s abilities are significantly beyond the summoner’s, increased instability…]

The system notification appeared.

The linen wrapping the body collapsed as if the support underneath it was suddenly taken away.

Then a small, dwarfish skeleton sat up slowly. Its bony hand reached out, tearing the linen wrapped around it.

[Skeleton Alchemist (Level 11)]

[Level: 11]

[Attributes: Constitution 13, Strength 11, Agility 14, Intelligence 18, Perception

16, Charm 5]

[Traits: Hollow Skeleton, Intermediate soul]

[Specialization: Cloth Armor Expertise (Intermediate), Pharmaceutics (Proficient)]

[Abilities: Alchemy Scholar, Potion Investigation, Formula Book]

[Alchemy Scholar]: can quickly identify alchemical items.

[Potion Investigation]: Can analyze special materials and prepare corresponding alchemy potions as required.

[Formula Book]: Records potion formulas for easy inheritance and documentation.

The attributes don’t contain any combat abilities.

Despite its high intelligence and perception, it doesn’t possess any spell- related abilities.

The specialties are all alchemy related.

Of course, Wu Heng didn’t buy it for combat purposes.

The dwarfish skeleton walked out of the coffin slowly and stood aside.

Despite trying to recall, Wu Heng couldn’t remember the name that Bahu had mentioned when introducing it.

Something like St-something, or was it something-St?

He got straight to the point, “From now on, your name is ‘Alchemist-Skeleton Number 1’.”

Upon hearing Wu Heng’s words, the dwarfish skeleton gave a small, courteous bow.

It carried itself like a gentleman.

The last one to give him this kind of feeling was the ‘Butler Yazde’.

Wu Heng wanted to hand the two types of corpse core detoxifying potions over to him.

But then he thought better of it, since he had recipes but not the necessary materials from the other world.

He gave an order, “Find a room for now. Tomorrow, I’ll tell you what to do.”

The dwarfish skeleton headed straight into one of the rooms in the hallway.

He didn’t linger outside to practice like the other skeletons.

The next morning.

As Wu Heng stepped out of his residence, an employee from the consortium was already waiting outside the door.

“Mr. Wu Heng, Vice-Executive Slyther requests your presence,” they said.

“Alright, I will head there immediately.” Wu Heng replied and left his residence after making some quick arrangements.

In the consortium, members of all the teams had gathered.

Scanning the first team, he indeed did not see ‘Anel’. As expected, he was not in the team.

The members of the first team also appeared much more low-key now.

They used to be the most ostentatious amongst the lot.

Wu Heng went to his team area, the other three members were also standing there.

“Another mission?” Wu Heng asked.

Team leader Autruck shook his head, “Seems like there is a message from HQ, they should have chosen someone for the executive position.”

Oh~!

Turned out it was such a matter. It didn’t have much to do with him then.

It doesn’t matter who becomes the executive.

Personally, I think ‘Slyther’ would make a good executive. He has connections in Black Stone Town and often leads teams to apprehend the wanted criminals.

But some people are very good at hiding their true colors, making it difficult to judge their true nature.

Yazde is a prime example. He appears like a gentleman every day, dressed up and wearing white gloves, but he has been planning something in the vicinity of Black Stone Town for many years.

He has caused so many deaths.

People can be so unpredictable!

They chatted in hushed tones, and soon ‘Slyther’ emerged from the crowd.

He glanced at everyone and announced directly: “I called you all here this morning to announce the new appointments at the headquarters.”

Everyone quieted down.

He continued: “Slyther is appointed as the residing executive of Black Stone Town’s Association of Professionals. The Vice-executive will arrive in Black Stone Town within three days.”

As this is an organization made up of professionals, the appointment ceremony wasn’t too ceremonious. A simple verbal announcement and a glimpse of the appointment letter was all it took to make it official.

The members of each small team and some staff looked at each other, not saying much.

It’s no surprise to see Slyther appointed as an executive after all those years.

“Congratulations, Executive Slyther.” Everyone congratulated.

“Okay, that’s all for now. Everyone, please go back to your own work!” Slyther waved his hand.

The crowd dispersed, chatting quietly as they left the meeting hall.

Yuli was pretty pleased to hear the news, almost shouting in joy.

She excitedly patted Wu Heng on the back for a couple of times.

After all, Slyther was her aunt.

With her as the executive, Yuli felt like she was a legacy here.

“Where are you going?” Yuli asked as they walked out.

“Going to buy some materials.” Wu Heng replied.

“What kind of materials? Are you studying necromancy?”

“Necromancy? No, Alchemy materials.”

“Oh, you’re researching alchemy now!” Yuli exclaimed in surprise.

“Just a little bit-!”

They chatted as they walked out.

A staff member followed behind and announced, “Mr. Wu Heng, the executive asks for you.”

Wu Heng paused for a moment.

He immediately realized that Slyther wanted to see him.

Hearing that the executive wanted to see him alone made him feel a bit tense.

He wondered if she wanted to harm him.

But Slyther had been fair to him, she was still young, didn’t appear to have any terminal illnesses and didn’t lack money.

She probably wouldn’t harm him.

“Okay!” Wu Heng nodded.

Yuli said, “I’ll wait for you in the rest area, then we can go buy the materials.” “Okay!”

Wu Heng went to Slyther’s study.

He gently knocked on the door, entered the room upon receiving a response.

The room was filled with a faint fragrance, the same one that was present when he shared the carriage ride with her before.

Wu Heng smiled and said, “Congratulations, Executive Slyther.”

Slyther motioned him to sit and said directly, “In addition to my appointment, headquarters also sent some orders about you. Due to your sufficient merits, you will be transferred to ‘Lundham’ to serve as captain…”

Upon hearing this, Wu Heng slightly frowned.

He knew he would be transferred.

This was all part of Yazde’ s plan. When Yazde took over his body, he would move to a secluded place and lay low for a few years, then no one would know about this.

What surprised Wu Heng was the name of the city, ‘Lundham’.

Yesterday, when he retrieved Yazde’s belongings from ‘Snake Badge Consortium’, he found a deed labeled ‘Lundham’.

This meant that Yazde had prearranged this or applied to go to this city in his name.

“Lundham is outside the Yeko Kingdom. It’s a rather chaotic place. I’m not sure why the headquarters suddenly decided to transfer you there.” Slyther looked at him and then said, “If you don’t want to go, I can communicate with the headquarters and let you take the position of team captain.”

Huh?

A city outside the ‘Yeko’ Kingdom?
