Chapter 1232: Chapter 922, Yuli is Coming Over_2

“After all, a Pope has died, the Holy Court definitely won’t let it go, but it’s not a big problem. As long as the association doesn’t act against me, the Holy Court can’t do much,” Wu Heng reassured.

Given Slyther’s level and position, knowing too much is worrisome, it doesn’t help much.

Talking too much will only make her worry.

“It’s good that you’re fine,” Slyther said.

Wu Heng continued, “The casino will open in a couple of days, what about the people you arranged?”

Slyther said, “I thought about it, I decided not to send anyone over for now. Once Yuli’s paperwork is done, she’ll go over and manage it, and you can help her out then.”

Wu Heng’s eyes widened, “Are you really sending Yuli over? I can’t manage her.”

“What else can we do? Should she stay in Black Stone Town with me for the rest of her life? With a hero like you here, she definitely has to go out and explore,” Slyther said with a tone suggesting she wouldn’t let the child suffer.

Wu Heng frowned, “I object. If she gets hurt, won’t you be at my throat?”

“No objections allowed,” Slyther said grumpily, then added, “You’re a hero, as long as she doesn’t leave the island, there won’t be any danger.”

“Then you quit being a steward and come over, let’s do it together,” Wu Heng suggested once more.

“I’m doing just fine as a steward, no need to come over. Yuli isn’t as mischievous as you think, don’t worry,” Slyther said with a smile.

“Alright then, I’ll keep an eye on Yuli for you, but you have to agree to one condition of mine,” Wu Heng said.

“What’s that?”

Wu Heng lowered his voice and asked, “Do you like boys or girls?”

“You…” Slyther hesitated, then said, “I like both, but we’ll see how you behave next time.”

“Alright!”

The two talked for a while and settled the matters regarding Money Cat and Yuli.

Wu Heng also mentioned that he would have someone send her a phone in a couple of days, and teach her how to use it for easier contact.

After ending the call, Wu Heng continued to lean back in his chair.

Slyther decided not to send anyone to take over the Money Cat over here, mainly due to the distance, even the Phantom Train takes 7 days, let alone the need to keep its existence a secret.

The second reason is that getting to Black Stone Town requires passing through the territory of the Crown Prince of Yeko Kingdom, which could lead to numerous issues.

Indeed, it’s a bit troublesome, but Slyther never mentioned it, making things a bit rushed.

Someone still needs to be arranged to manage the Money Cat there.

The second matter is about Yuli. From Slyther’s tone, an application has already been submitted to the headquarters.

Yuli’s level has increased quite rapidly, and during the chaos before, she accumulated quite a bit of merit, including first-class merits for killing a Level 18 Heavenly Destiny Church Bishop.

The headquarters is basically expected to approve this transfer.

When she comes over, her safety should also be kept in mind.

In fact, it shouldn’t be too big of a problem.

With Lilith Leader stationed on Gold and Silver Island alongside me, the whole Emerald Sea has been quite peaceful, with little chance of issues arising.

Considering these two issues, Wu Heng dialed Shanaela’s phone and explained Slyther’s matters to her, asking her to directly arrange for someone to take over the Money Cat.

Shanaela readily agreed, as she indeed didn’t lack people for management.

…

Ring ring ring~!

Just after hanging up the phone, it rang again.

Upon answering, Shi Yali’s voice came from the other end, “Wu Heng, what have you been busy with lately?”

“Busy with the casino stuff, miss me?” Wu Heng leaned back in his chair, asking with a smile.

“Yeah, I do,” Shi Yali answered straightforwardly.

“What do you miss about me?”

“Not a hint of heroism about you,” Shi Yali commented, then added, “Yesterday, Erinnoel came looking for Xi Ligui, thinking your consortium auction on the island has a bad influence outside.”

Wu Heng frowned, “Who’s that?”

“The new Flag-bearer,” Shi Yali reminded.

“Oh, bad influence, then what?” Wu Heng inquired further.

“Nothing after that. He left after saying that. We thought he might come to you about it, but apparently not,” Shi Yali said.

“He didn’t mention it to me. Just listen to his opinion, no need to take it seriously, especially since Lilith Leader hasn’t said anything,” Wu Heng replied.

“You sound just like Xi Ligui, just mentioning it to you,” Shi Yali continued, “Come to our place for dinner? Xi Ligui keeps saying she misses you.”

The phone echoed with Xi Ligui’s voice, “Stop using me as an excuse.”

Wu Heng laughed, hearing their banter, and said, “I’ll come see you guys in a couple of days.”

“Alright,” Shi Yali agreed.

Ending the call, Wu Heng also stepped out of the room.

After greeting the Maid, he headed upstairs back to the study.

…

Returning to the study, the Three Ghosts were all in the room.

Wu Heng asked, “Did you go to the church?”

“I did, I did,” Xiao Xiao raised her hand and flew over, “The church is still very lively, it’s full of people inside.”

Apparently, the effect of distributing eggs has exceeded expectations.

So many days have passed, yet the hype continues.

“Any changes compared to before?” Wu Heng asked.

Xiao Xiao frowned in thought, “Changes… well, yes, everyone can recite the doctrine and speak it spontaneously.”

The other two ghosts also looked over.

Seems the effect is better than expected.

Wu Heng glanced at the panel, faith hadn’t increased, but the trend was improving.

Glenda suggested, “Should we increase some of the distributed items, like pills or something?”

Wu Heng understood her suggestion but shook his head, “Pills will likely attract mercenaries and professionals, who have irregular schedules and are hard to convert to faith.”

“True, that makes sense,” Glenda agreed and continued, “Then let’s stick to the current approach.”

Wu Heng nodded, “Let’s go, we’re heading to the Zombie World and will return in the evening.”

The Three Ghosts entered his body and Wu Heng stepped into the boundary door.

…

South Korea Base, inside the dormitory.

Wu Heng called Qi Hancai to confirm she was in the office, then headed over directly.

Entering the office.

Qi Hancai said, “The alliance meeting has had a great response outside, with various small and medium refuges particularly supportive of these larger refuges.”

“The meeting’s content is more favorable to small and medium refuges, so it’s natural for them to be supportive,” Wu Heng said, taking a seat beside her.

The contents mentioned technical support, which would surely garner support from small and medium refuges.

Qi Hancai continued, “There are already some refuges reporting Zombie King information, but it’s hard to say how true it is. I suspect there might be false reports about Zombie Kings to get help clearing zombies.”

“This is indeed an issue; make the refuge bear joint responsibility. If it’s fake, they’re accountable,” Wu Heng agreed.

“That’s also a solution,” Qi Hancai added, “The Fire God Furnace mentioned you agreed to help them against ghosts, asking when you’d be available.”

“I did agree. Did they say what they’d offer?” Wu Heng asked.

“Three Russian armored vehicles, 15 boxes of machine cannon shells,” Qi Hancai replied.

They must have gotten the idea from Chang’an Dome that time when armored vehicles were used as reward for dealing with ghosts.

“Alright, inform them I’ll be there shortly.”

“Okay!”

…

From South Korea Base to the Fire God Furnace base, it takes 5 hours by plane.

The plane landed, and it was already 2 PM.

Wu Heng led two skeleton attendants off the plane and saw several people from the Fire God Furnace approaching.

The leading figure was the base representative Wu Heng met last time.

“Leader Wu Heng,” the figure warmly shook hands.

“Is the situation that urgent?” Wu Heng asked.

“It is quite urgent,” the person explained, “Ghosts have occupied an important production base of ours; we hope you can help us reclaim it.”

Wu Heng inquired, “What kind of base is it?”

The other hesitated, glanced at the people beside him, and still responded, “A weapons base!”

“Oh!” Wu Heng nodded, “Let’s go, lead the way.”
