MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse

Chapter 23, Mission Rewards

 Sword One Sword Two Four skeletons went aside to put on their equipment.

Wu Heng’s eyes fell on the straight skeleton team.

　　Five skeleton warriors with slightly higher experience were selected from them and were called to the front.

One of them was the skeleton that was first transformed and held an iron sword.

 The sword-wielding skeleton is the only one that has been upgraded to level 2.

 “Throw away the weapon.”

Clang, clang!

  The skeleton warrior threw the weapon in his hand to the ground.

Wu Heng picked up a spear and handed it to a skeleton, "Take it."

 The skeleton warrior took the spear and held it in his hand.

Wu Heng took two steps back, pointed at the iron cage next to him, and said, "Attack the iron cage."

The skeleton warrior raised his spear and made a thrusting motion forward.

The spear blade struck the iron cage with a clang.

Seeing that the skeleton could complete this action, Wu Heng felt relieved.

 He was really scared, holding the spear and slashing it like a kitchen knife or an iron sword.

Although these spears are not expensive, it is a good thing that ordinary skeletons can use them.

 Then Wu Heng handed the spears to the remaining skeletons one by one.

 An order was also given to attempt an attack.

Also made a forward thrust.

 The effect is pretty good.

 At this time, the skeletons such as Jian Yi, who had put on armor and weapons, also came back.

Wu Heng glanced at the already dark sky and said, "Don't go out, stay upstairs and wait."

 The four skeletons nodded in unison.

Wu Heng did not stay any longer and returned to Blackstone Town with Skull Basson.

 After simple physical training, go to bed.

 …

 The next day, early morning.

 After breakfast, I went to the Professionals Association alone.

 According to the words of the captain ‘Otluk’, we have to go to the association this morning.

 We walked all the way to the central area and walked into the association hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw a slender figure standing in front of the notice board and looking up at the commissioned task.

 “Kawina, you’re here so early.” Wu Heng took the initiative to say hello.

Kavina turned around when she heard the sound and nodded, "The captain asked me to wait for you here, because I'm afraid I won't find a place."

 “Oh, thank you!”

 Go through the corridor and come to a room.

 Pushing the door open, he saw the captain ‘Otluk’ sitting in the room.

 “Captain, Wu Heng is here.” Kavina said.

Oteluk nodded, motioned for the two of them to sit down, and continued: "Wu Heng, this is the lounge given to our team by the association. We can just come here directly from now on."

 “Good captain.”

Then, Altluk continued: "At yesterday's meeting, the performance of our team was praised by the deacons, especially Wu Heng. The city hall praised you individually."

 After confirming the performance of this task.

Oteluk took out the file and handed it to the two of them, "Blackstone Town has interrogated 'Achido'. This is the record he handed over. We participated in this operation and got a copy."

Kavina took a look at it first and then handed it to him.

Wu Heng held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

 According to Achido’s explanation.

 What was taken out from the mining village was the body of a baby.

Three years ago, his wife gave birth to a dead baby. It was nothing in this world, so the immediate burial was over.

But before the burial, a passing scholar found him and said that there was a way for the dead baby to survive in another way, and his career would also be helped.

At that time, he listened to the other party's words and placed the dead baby in a place in the mine according to the method. As expected, the mining business began to improve.

Until recently, people in the village began to go crazy, and he realized that there was a problem. But when he wanted to take out the body for burial, he found that the people in the village were crazy and his people couldn't get in at all.

Coupled with the fact that Blackstone Town arranged investigation teams one after another, he took the risk and set the trap the day before yesterday.

Since they could not stop the second investigation team, they asked the investigation team to lure the crazy villagers away so that they could go in and take out the baby's body.

 Facts have proved that this plan is quite successful. The only thing missing was Wu Heng.

 One person killed several members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

It also caused his entire plan to fail at the last step.

Seeing Wu Heng finish reading, Altluk continued: "Blackstone Town believes that the scholar on the path is a necromancer, and Blackstone Town has also begun to investigate this person."

Necromancer.

He came up with a random idea and killed a whole village.

It is not unfair at all to be excluded from this profession.

“So, it was the baby’s body that drove the villagers crazy?” Wu Heng continued to ask.

"According to the data, it is a ghost cultivated by necromancy magic, which is the soul of the baby we saw at that time. After this kind of baby becomes a soul, it has no concept of good and evil and is often more dangerous." Otto Luke answered.

 Infant spirit? Soul body?

　　Why did you get the ghost again?

 But then I thought about it, all skeletons have soul fire, so it’s not surprising that there are ghosts in this world.

 At the very least, a soul is much more reliable than a skeleton standing up.

“Okay, this mission has ended. Due to errors in the intelligence, the association and Blackstone Town have increased the mission reward. It has been mentioned to 220 silver coins, which is a medium item reward.”

Hearing this sentence, Kavina, who was not interested in the story at first, also brightened up.

 At least the adventure was not in vain, and the rewards have been improved.

Wu Heng is concerned about the medium prop rewards.

 At that time, he can change to a medium skill book. The effect of the acid splash is not very great, and it is like spitting when released, which is not elegant at all.

“By the way, Wu Heng, you have to pay attention.” The captain looked at him again.

 “Huh? What’s wrong?”

“This incident has affected a whole village, and it involves the Necromancer. Although the city hall recognizes your performance this time, it will also pay more attention to you.”

Wu Heng frowned instantly.

  In other words, the consequences caused by the Necromancer this time have made the city hall feel that this profession is even more dangerous.

 He, the necromancer in the city, will also receive special attention.

　　 No, I have always been a danger target, and this time I am a key danger target.

 “I know Captain.”

Oteluk took out two money bags, handed them to the two of them, and continued: "That's it for today. Kavina, take Wu Heng to get familiar with it in the association."

"Okay!" Kavina put the money bag into her backpack, stood up and walked out, "I will show you around the association. If you have anything you don't know, you can ask me."

After leaving the room, Kavina led him out with her long legs. Her round hips were eye-catching.

“That’s the training ground over there. It’s a big place. The captain likes to train there and is a training fanatic.”

“The room over there is the alchemy research room, specially provided for the use of alchemists.”

 “That’s the conference room over there….”

  Along the way, Kavina introduced him to several special places.

 Professional associations have deep pockets.

 The entire building occupies a large area and has various areas.

 “Do you take care of the food here? Just breakfast and dinner?”

"in spite of!"

"oh!"

 …

 After walking around in a circle, Kavina left alone.

Wu Heng came to the counter.

 “I want to use the medium item reward to exchange for the skill book.”

 “Okay sir, what kind of professional skills do you need?”

 “Mage!”

“Okay sir, there are two types of mage skill books currently available in Blackstone Town.”

 Speaking, two skill books were taken out.

 【Grease Technique】【Cloud and Mist Technique】.

 The book cover is old and looks like it has been read more than once.

  【Grease Technique】

  (Description: Turn the designated area into difficult terrain, flammable.)

  【Cloud and Mist】

  (Description: Create a thick fog that fills every corner.)

　　　Thanks to ‘Angels’ Trail’ for the 5,000-coin reward.
