Chapter 1273: Chapter 941, Turtle Shell_2

The Sword of Justice raised an eyebrow, "The culprit was caught by Wu Heng, and Lilith was present during the Wenshi."

"Can this be considered evidence?" The Religious Leader said coldly.

"Do you think it’s fake? Since Lilith was there to accompany the Wenshi, the authenticity of the evidence can be confirmed."

"Authentic?" The Religious Leader sneered and tapped his fingers on the table, "The responses from the corpse are just recollections of inherent memories. Who knows what measures he might have used? A Necromancer hero was deceived by a Ghost at the banquet without realizing it? Do you believe that? I don’t, anyway."

The Dwarf Leader crossed his arms over his chest, his thick beard trembling as he spoke, "Ever since he became the Gold and Silver Island Master, the leadership meetings at our headquarters haven’t stopped. Wu Heng is indeed rather restless."

In the conference room, after a moment of silence, the Sword of Justice spoke slowly, "The corpse and investigation results are on their way, once they arrive, we can conduct further checks."

"Further checks?" The Religious Leader’s expression grew more severe, "A Church Priest died in such a humiliating manner at his banquet, what more checks do we need? Since the association is unwilling to step in and handle this matter, the Holy Court has its own ways."

After this statement, the conference room became even quieter.

The Sword of Justice’s face changed, and the Dwarf Leader also realized the gravity of the situation and persuaded, "Saidu, calm down, things aren’t as serious as you think."

BANG~!

Saidu slammed his fist on the table and said, "Enough, Hadara, you disappoint me. After so many years of contribution from the Holy Court, you are actually showing favoritism to a Necromancer. The Holy Court represents the will of God, its authority cannot be humiliated like this. Gold and Silver Island will no longer exist."

After speaking, Saidu swung his robe, stood up, and walked out the door.

The door closed heavily, causing the crystal chandelier to ring.

"Everyone will face the Holy Court’s judgment!" The Religious Leader’s roar echoed down the corridor.

In the conference room, Bruno the Dwarf nervously stroked his beard, "Will the Holy Court attack Gold and Silver Island?"

The Sword of Justice glanced at him but said nothing.

After a long while, he finally said, "Attacking Gold and Silver Island is unlikely, Lilith is on the island, the Holy Court won’t act impulsively."

"I wouldn’t be so sure," the Dwarf hero commented.

The Sword of Justice looked at him for a moment and then said, "Let’s wait for the corpse and report to arrive and conduct another thorough check."

...

In the afternoon, after lunch.

Xiao Xiao bounced back from outside, waving a doll in her hand, "I won it at the arcade."

The maids gathered around, praising her affectionately.

"Xiao Xiao is amazing!"

"You won so many!"

"What did you play to win?"

Amidst the praises, Xiao Xiao’s head held higher and higher, generously distributing the dolls among the household.

Then she said, "Dance machine, nobody could outdance me."

After distributing the dolls.

Wu Heng asked, "Are there many outsiders at the arcade?"

"Quite a few, some I recognize from the last auction, my defeated opponents," Xiao Xiao replied.

The arcade is rather attractive, and the prices aren’t too exaggerated.

Those who haven’t spent all their money at the auction would have enough to have a blast on the island.

"Is Lilith Leader good at dancing?" Wu Heng asked casually.

Xiao Xiao seriously replied, "Not as good as me, but Sister Lilith loves playing the dance machine the most."

"Seems she really loves dancing," Wu Heng said.

Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement.

After chatting in the living room for a while, Wu Heng took Xiao Xiao upstairs.

Glenda and Bella were also busy in the study.

Wu Heng said, "Let’s go visit the Zombie World."

The Three Ghosts melded into his body, Wu Heng opened the boundary door and walked right in.

On the other side of the boundary door was still the surveillance room.

He released the Ghosts to check the zombies in the prison while he took out his phone to call Li Yahong.

After two rings, the call was answered, and Li Yahong’s voice came through, "Wu Heng?"

"Hmm, why the questioning tone?" Wu Heng asked with a smile.

Li Yahong replied irritably, "Sister Zhao and I called you the other day, but no one answered. We thought something had happened."

"I was resting. If no one answers, don’t worry, nothing will happen here." Wu Heng reassured and then asked, "Did you call for something?"

"Didn’t we need artifacts before? The main station has sent them over, come have a look when you have time," Li Yahong said straightforwardly.

Last time, Wu Heng obtained a Skill Book from the ruins and contacted the main station about artifacts when he returned.

After some time, the artifacts had been delivered.

"Alright, I’ll head over shortly," Wu Heng agreed directly.

Li Yahong nodded, "Okay, I’ll notify Sister Zhao to tidy up the room."

"Hmm!"

After hanging up, Glenda, who hadn’t left, asked, "Are you going to Central District?"

"Yes, they said the borrowed artifacts have arrived, let’s see if we can learn some Skills," Wu Heng said.

"Acquiring another ancient skill will significantly enhance your strength," Glenda said.

The effect of the Water Drawing Technique is far more impressive than previous Skills.

Given the current state, it’s not feasible to break through to Hero status in a short time, so acquiring more ancient skills would be greatly beneficial to him.

Wu Heng nodded.

During their conversation, Xiao Xiao and Bella flew back and said, "Uncle, there’s no zombie that reached Level 20."

"No hurry."

"It’s snowing outside, can we go have a snowball fight?" Xiao Xiao continued asking.

Wu Heng took out a coat and wore it, saying, "We’re going to see your mother first, we can play once we get there."

"Alright."

Wu Heng took the Ghosts outside and rode the Flying Dragon, braving the biting cold wind to fly towards the Central District.

...

Central District.

The Flying Dragon descended from the sky.

Green windbreaks hung at the doors of the central mall.

The hall was empty, Wu Heng went up the stairs and gently knocked on the door of Li Yahong’s office, then walked in.

Inside the office, Li Yahong sat behind the desk, a drama playing on her tablet.

"Quite leisurely!" Wu Heng said with a smile.

Li Yahong smiled, "You always need to find something to do."

Xiao Xiao appeared beside him, "Hello, Auntie!"

"Hello, Xiao Xiao!" Li Yahong greeted with a smile.

Xiao Xiao continued, "Uncle, the dolls, we want to go have a snowball fight."

Wu Heng took out three dolls, Xiao Xiao possessed one, and Bella possessed another.

Li Yahong’s eyes narrowed when she saw the two dolls besides Xiao Xiao.

Wu Heng introduced, "This is my other Ghost, named Bella."

Then he said to Bella, "Li Yahong, the Vice Leader of the base here."

Bella slightly bowed, and Li Yahong forced a smile, "Hello."

Xiao Xiao then pulled Bella out to play.

Glenda’s Ghost remained unpossessed, indicating she didn’t want to go outside. Wu Heng put the doll away.

Li Yahong curiously asked, "Is Bella an old... foreign friend?"

"Yes, from abroad."

"Her Chinese is so good," Li Yahong said in surprise.

"She learned from Xiao Xiao," Wu Heng replied, "Artifacts?"

"I’ll take you there."

They walked out of the office together and headed to another room similar to a library.

Inside the room, various types of artifacts were displayed on long wooden tables.

Rocks etched with writings, a copper bell with inscriptions, and assembled bamboo slips.

"I’ll look here for a bit, I’ll find you later," Wu Heng said.

"Alright!" Li Yahong left, closing the door.

Wu Heng picked up the artifacts and began examining them one by one.

He carefully read each artifact’s inscriptions, his brow furrowing slightly.

Glenda appeared beside him, "No Skills?"

"Haven’t found one yet," Wu Heng said.

"It’s all about luck, don’t rush," Glenda rarely offered comfort.

Wu Heng continued looking, his gaze falling on a turtle shell with a hollowed center.

The surface of the shell was covered in cracks forming patterns, while the interior was densely inscribed with symbols and writing.

Words inscribed inside?
