Chapter 1168: Text: Chapter 889, Appointment Issued_3 Chapter 1168: Text: Chapter 889, Appointment Issued_3 If you get scratched or bitten, it's game over.
Swish, swish, swish~!
The sound of cutting through the air rang out as four rocks whistled towards their target, accurately smashing the heads of four zombies and knocking them to the back.
Fu Hongen hurried over with his people to finish off the zombies by decapitating them.
He then turned to Wu Heng who was approaching, “Thank you!”
Wu Heng replied, “No problem. Are there any more zombies inside? Where is the vault?”
“This way!” Fu Hongen led the way, entering the building of the central bank and then heading towards the basement.
After passing through several doors, they reached the final round metal door.
“The gold bars are inside,” said Fu Hongen.
Wu Heng nodded and said to the three people, “I need to take some photos and study this place a bit. Wait for me at the door.”
Fu Hongen and others raised their eyebrows and nodded, “Okay, call us if there's any danger.”
“Mhm!”
The three of them directly walked out.
Xiao Xiao also appeared, “Uncle, there really is a lot of gold inside.”
Glenda and Bella, also standing by, were shocked, “It's piled up into a mountain.”
“There are 200 tons,” Wu Heng stated, then took out the Bronze Key, found the keyhole in front of the sealed silver-white metal door, inserted it, and gently turned it, slowly opening the door as thick as a wall.
After pulling out the key, the portal connecting to the Otherworld disappeared, revealing the vault inside.
Rows of metal racks neatly stacked with gold bricks.
Wu Heng glanced briefly, then casually collected the gold bricks and the racks into his storage space.
After collecting everything, Wu Heng looked at the door.
Confirming that it couldn't be dismantled and that dismantling it would be useless, he turned and walked outside.
…
After exiting through the main door, Fu Hongen and his people were chatting outside.
Seeing Wu Heng coming out, they remarked, “All done? That was quick.”
“It's done, let's head back!” Wu Heng walked out, followed by the three people.
Fu Hongen said, “Why don't you stay at our base for the night, and have your people come over tomorrow to figure out a plan.”
Wu Heng replied, “No need, I'm heading back now. You can directly contact Li Yahong to collect the remaining food.”
“Ah? You're just giving it to us? You have the final say?” The bespectacled man asked.
“I'll discuss it with the Vice Leader; can't let you guys busy yourselves for nothing,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
“Alright!”
Exiting the building's main doors, Wu Heng stood in the middle of the road, waved towards the sky, and the Bone Dragon descended.
Mounting the back of the Bone Dragon, he said, “Goodbye!”
Seeing that he was really leaving, Fu Hongen didn't try to keep him, but also waved his hand, “Goodbye!”
The Bone Dragon soared into the sky and disappeared, while the three people still stood in place.
“What's up with him?” The younger man among the three said.
“He probably just gave up since it was impossible to open it,” another person replied.
Fu Hongen, looking in the disappearing direction, said, “Let's go back and see.”
The three hurriedly walked back into the bank and entered the vault.
Upon entering, they saw the wide-open metal door and the empty vault.
“Damn! It's been cleared out.”
“He's like a phantom thief! Where did he put the stuff? I didn't see anything.”
“It was empty inside from the start.”
The bespectacled man pondered and then said, “People say their leader has a space superpower, was that guy…”
The other two widened their eyes.
…
Wood Elf, Elder Council Chambers.
Around the circular wooden table, five Wood Elf Elders were seated.
The topic of today's meeting was still the warning from The Holy Court to the Starflower Commerce Association.
The Wood Elves hadn't had a hero emerge for a long time, and their racial strength was declining over time. In previous years, resources were poured into trying to cultivate a hero, but recently, even level 18 professionals began to disappear.
This year, with Starflower and Gold and Silver Island starting to work closely, the long-standing deficit within the race began to improve.
However, the warning from The Holy Court still pressured everyone.
“So, today's meeting is still about the Chamber of Commerce and Gold and Silver Island?” the female Elder at the third seat softly inquired.
“It's related to this matter,” the Great Elder said.
One of the Elders sighed softly, “Although it's a pity, Gold and Silver Island and The Holy Court can't be compared; we might let Shanaela and Wu Heng know to try to complete the upcoming orders in these next two instances and then just let it be.”
Another Elder said, “Wu Heng isn't a fool, why would he do that? If the transactions were to be terminated, there's still a penalty fee in the agreement.”
“We can let Shanaela say something.”
Thump, thump~!
The leading Great Elder, gently tapped the table, looked up and said, “Let me speak first…”
Everyone fell silent, and the Great Elder began slowly, “Shanaela has sent a new letter, which mentioned something that might still be worth our discussion.”
“What is it? Speak directly, Great Elder!” the female Elder said.
The Great Elder didn't beat around the bush and said directly, “The letter just stated one thing, Wu Heng has become a hero!”
At this remark, everyone stared intensely at the Great Elder.
It was quiet for a while before someone spoke, “Interesting, has that lad charmed Shanaela to such an extent? To even dare to utter such unrealistic words.”
Another Elder said, “Shanaela has been managing Starflower for so many years, how could she fabricate such a thing!”
“You believe Wu Heng has become a hero?”
The other party abruptly stayed silent, no longer speaking.
The information about Wu Heng had been carefully investigated by the Wood Elves, maintaining contact with him, and allowing Shanaela to freely interact with him.
They also valued his potential, feeling hopeful he could reach level 18, or even push for the hero.
But to say a human in his twenties has become a hero.
That's simply a delusional talk.
“Even the smartest women lose their ability to think when they encounter love.”
“Hmph!” The female Elder coldly snorted in dissatisfaction.
“Of course, I didn't mean you.” The man quickly changed his tune, and then said, “I think there's no need for further discussion; now that he has even said such a thing, let's just use his deceit as a reason to end the cooperation.”
The rest of the Elders kept silent, which was a form of agreement.
“Ah~!” The Great Elder sighed softly.
Just as he was about to announce, a commotion passed from outside the door.
“What's happening? Open the door and see.” The Great Elder said.
The door opened.
And standing at the doorstep were various Elder Attendants or assistants.
Following that, behind the five Elders, their own people whispered something into their ears.
And hearing what was said, all five Elders' eyes suddenly widened, filled with surprise.
