MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse

Chapter 11, Wanted criminal

 The corpse was stripped naked, and the trophies were placed aside.

Leather boots, two short blades, two grenades, two bottles of healing potions, a receipt with a ferocious snake head on it, and a purse containing silver and copper coins.

　　When he saw the grenade, Wu Heng's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

Wu Heng’s eyes fell on the grenade first.

  【Poison Smoke Thunder】

  (Description: After release, it can produce a large amount of poisonous smoke.)

 Damn, it’s a smoke bomb.

 Fortunately, I shot decisively, otherwise I would have let him use this thing.

Even if it is not an explosion, the consequences are very troublesome.

He carefully put the grenade aside and looked at the leather boots beside him again.

 The leather armor is brown, with exquisite vine branches and curling grass patterns on the surface. The chest, waist and abdomen are double-layered and thickened.

Both the style and workmanship are very good, several levels higher than the one Wu Heng bought himself.

The only drawback is that there are a few holes made by bullets.

Even the leather armor in the magical world cannot stop bullets.

Wu Heng picked it up and measured it according to his body shape. The size was quite suitable, just right for him.

 It doesn’t really matter if there are bullet holes.

Just go to a leather goods store and get it repaired.

It doesn't matter even if you don't practice it. The main enemy you face are zombies. As long as you can withstand grabbing and biting, a few bullet holes won't affect anything.

 Put the leather armor aside and take out two short blades.

  The scabbard is made of black leather, the blade is silver-white, and the handle is made of leather strips wrapped around it.

“The workmanship is good.” Wu Heng played with it.

These two weapons are very good. If placed in a weapons store, they are also mid-to-high-quality weapons. It will definitely not be a problem to reach dozens of silver.

 Are all the robbers so rich?

 It takes a long time, but the poor are all ordinary people, right?

 In addition to the medicine and coins, there is still the receipt with the snake's head.

  The reason why it is called a document is that it has a number and a pattern similar to anti-counterfeiting.

 Perhaps it was robbed or stolen from somewhere.

 I collected several kinds of trophies and felt quite satisfied.

　　　I won’t accompany you no matter what.

 After checking the trophies, he planned to use the "Bone Slave Technique" to transform the corpse into a skeleton.

 When he just focused his eyes on the appearance of the corpse, the movements of his hands were slightly paused.

Underneath his beard, which was soaked in strands from the rain, you can see a scar as knotted as a centipede.

 I seem to have seen this person somewhere.

 Especially this scar.

 “Why does it look so familiar!”

I haven’t seen many people in Blackstone Town, and even fewer have left an impression.

 Neighbors nearby, owners of shops that you often visit.

 Where have you seen it?

　　Unexpectedly, he commanded the skeleton first and collected all the loot.

 After checking the surrounding situation, he walked downstairs.

 …

 Professional Hall.

Wu Heng looked at the reward on the notice board and his eyes widened slightly.

 【Wanted criminal-Bassen, reward amount is 120 silver coins, and a lower-level prop.】

 The portrait is very similar to the man he killed.

Especially the scar on the lower lip, which looks like a centipede. The location and style are basically the same.

  Remove the beard all over his face, and you can basically conclude that it is a wanted criminal posted on it.

 It's just that he can't figure it out.

How could I, an honest Necromancer, be targeted by a wanted criminal?

Had I not gotten a pistol, I might have been the one lying on the ground.

 Most importantly, the other party also ran away.

 He ​​scanned the list of wanted criminals again and found no one who looked similar to the other person.

 Either they are not inside, or they are disguised.

"You won't be targeting me anymore!" If you kill this person today, the escaped desperado might want to take revenge on you.

If placed in the zombie world, he is really not afraid of these wanted criminals. With so many skeleton warriors, he can scare them to death.

 But in this world, it’s really hard to say.

 This matter should be reported to Blackstone Town to conduct a search of the congested area.

 Before, the first time I thought of hiding the body was because I was afraid of being misunderstood.

 As a necromancer myself, without being able to provide effective evidence, it is difficult to prove that someone else robbed me or that I wanted to harm him.

 Now that the other party is a wanted criminal, anyone can hunt him down without any responsibility.

 Hand over the body and complete the commission is the best option.

 …

 After thinking about it, Wu Heng came directly to the counter.

 “Sir, is there anything I can help you with?” the staff member asked with a smile.

Wu Heng took out the reward he had just picked up and said, "This criminal was killed by me yesterday. What should I do with him?"

“Sir, are you saying that you killed this wanted criminal instead of providing clues?” the young female teller asked in disbelief.

 The wanted criminals who can be listed on the professional association are not something ordinary people can deal with.

When each city received intelligence or news, they organized guards to round up and kill him individually. He was a fair and clean young man, which was somewhat... rare.

Wu Heng nodded, "Well, what should we do next?"

"Wait a moment, we need to arrange for someone to check the body. After confirming that it is correct, we will give you the reward." The staff member said immediately.

 “Okay, I’ll take you there.”

Soon, a team of five people with association badges arrived. Without any communication, they just followed him to his residence.

The corpse was dragged into this world by Wu Heng in advance, wearing a linen gown, which was better than being naked.

People from the Professionals Association verified the identity of the corpse.

 After confirming his identity, he wrapped the body and left.

 Return directly to the professional association,

 …

 Returning to the professional hall, Wu Heng filled in the record of the event under the guidance of the staff.

 The above includes whether to actively investigate the target or to passively counterattack.

 The process is not complicated and can be optional.

 If you want to write it down, just write it down. If you don’t want to write it down, or it doesn’t exist, just leave it blank.

 There are no too complicated steps.

“Sir, the bounty reward includes a lower-level prop reward. What do you need?” the staff continued to ask.

  “What does it include?”

“Weapons and equipment, or rare materials, notes, etc., what do you need?”

Forehead….

 Props are just a general summary. All rewards except currency are counted as props.

  It is just divided into levels, and the lower level is obviously not a high-level reward.

 “Do you have a skill book? It’s for a mage.”

 “Let me check it for you.”

 The staff took out the album and started looking through it.

He quickly said: "Sir, there are two skill books corresponding to lower-level rewards, 'Dancing Lights' and 'Acid Splash'."

 “Can I take a look and choose again?”

“Wait a moment, I’ll get it for you.” The staff member said and walked towards the corridor.

Wu Heng still sat and waited silently.

 About five or six minutes passed.

 The staff did not wait, but a group of Blackstone Town patrol guards came towards him.

Looking at the other party's menacing appearance, a bad premonition suddenly arose in my heart.

He walked straight in front of Wu Heng with his heavy leather boots on the floor.

After examining it with a serious look, he said: "Wu Heng, the necromancer, killed a wanted criminal with a reward on his head last night."

 “Yes.” Wu Heng replied.

 “Then come with us.”

After saying that, two guards came out from behind, grabbing his arms and taking him away by force.

　　Is anyone watching? A little panicked.
