Chapter 226: 195, They are killing the residents_1



Wu Heng frowned slightly, also sitting upright, “What’s going on, tell me.”

Andre Willow looked up, her big eyes full of moisture, and she began to speak softly.

Wu Heng sat beside her and listened for a while, understanding the meaning of her words.

Andre Willow’s tribe had been destroyed by the battles among the Beastmen.

The few remaining tribesmen were sold as slaves to slave traders.

Andre Willow was more than just a common slave; she was the daughter of the leader of her tribe and held a certain degree of influence among her people.

After Wu Heng bought her.

She planned to gradually save money to buy the remaining tribesmen back. However, she did not expect the situation in the Outer City Area to worsen, with the Hammer Party even starting to slaughter people indiscriminately.

With no other choices, she could only ask Wu Heng to help her buy them back first.

“Master, I beg you to help my people.” Andre Willow pleaded again.

Wu Heng rubbed his temples, understanding the meaning of her words.

He had sensed that Andre Willow was not ordinary, at least not like a general slave like Mini.

She held a Level 7 special job, could read and write, and her handwriting was exquisite.

Beastmen did not normally attach much importance to these skills.

Not to mention a slave.

It turned out she had the status of a Junior Clan Leader.

“How many of you are left?” Wu Heng asked.

“There are five of us left with the slave traders.” Andre Willow answered.

“Once they are brought back, how do you plan to arrange for them? There is not enough room in our house to accommodate so many people,” Wu Heng continued.

Andre Willow looked up and seriously made her plan, “Master, we could have them reside at the shop. The shop has been performing well, but it is lacking in people to keep watch and guard. At times when people are needed to transport goods, my tribesmen can do all these tasks. We Beastmen are accustomed to hardships.”

A usual business does indeed demand a lot of manpower.

Wu Heng’s general store was barely managed by just two maids.

It was sporadically closed and opened again.

Not much proper business had been transacted.

Since it was insufficiently manned, it would undoubtedly be understaffed in the longer run.

In the ‘Maoliao Armour Shop’ for example, there was no shortage of staff serving the customers, transporting goods and delivering purchases to customers’ doorstep.

A lot of them.

Not all of them were house-bred, but a significant number of them were.

What Andre Willow said made sense.

It seemed like she had made plans beforehand.

“You must think clearly that I have many enemies. I can arrange protection for the two of you, but I cannot do the same for your tribesmen. They might be exposed to even more danger after coming over,” Wu Heng reminded again.

“Master is a good man. Following you is the best choice for them, and my tribesmen know well how to protect themselves,” Andre Willow insisted.

“Can you assure that they will keep our secret?”

“I can keep an eye on them, and to begin with, they won’t have any dealings with you. All their work will be confined to the shop,” Andre Willow immediately replied.

Wu Heng thought that made sense.

If they lived at the shop, they would mainly heed Andre Willow’s instructions.

They wouldn’t have access to any secrets.

“How much money would you need?”

“Right now slaves are cheap, three hundred silver coins would suffice, and I will repay you in the future,” Andre Willow said softly.

Wu Heng nodded, taking out three pouches of money from his Space Ring, “Go and buy them back tomorrow, settle them on the second floor of the shop as you have planned. Watch over them, and don’t let them do anything out of line.”

“Thank you, Master.” With tears in her eyes, Andre Willow joyfully spoke.

At this moment, Mini, who was eavesdropping from the kitchen, came out hesitantly, “Master, I also have two good friends, could you help me buy them back? I will repay you the money.”

Damn it!

The little one is trying to worm her way into it too.

Considering the dangerous situation in the Outer City Area now, it was quite reasonable to have a couple of friends.

“How do you plan to accommodate your friends?” Wu Heng asked.

“There are just two of them, they can be your maids, Master. Or they could live in the shop,” Mini responded.

“How much money do you need?”

“Fifty silver coins should be plenty.”

Wu Heng withdrew another fifty silver coins, “Go with Willow tomorrow, let them stay in the shop first.”

“Hehe, Master is so kind.” Mini cheered excitedly.

A master willing to pay for slaves was indeed a rare sighting in the entire Lundham City.

It at least demonstrated that Wu Heng did take good care of them.

Mini coquettishly scurried back to the kitchen to prepare dinner after flirting a little bit.

With the soft and affectionate look in her eyes, Andre Willow, full of gratitude, also stood up. She gently cradled Wu Heng’s head and nestled it on her lap.

“Thank you, Master. I am so fortunate to have met you.”

“You both are excellent too,” Wu Heng smiled.

After dinner.

Wu Heng instructed the two of them and then left for the Guild.

After obtaining his patrol assignment from the attendant, he proceeded to the break room.

Upon pushing the room door open, his four members were already waiting inside.

Seeing Wu Heng walk in, they all rose to their feet, “Captain!”

“Captain!” The four of them greeted as they stood.

Wu Heng nodded, “Let’s go. We are assigned to the Outer City Area and must head out before the inner city gates close.”

The assignments were distributed by drawing lots.

Among them, eight teams were dispatched to the Outer City Area for rotating patrols around the city walls and the important locations near the city gates. The remaining four teams patrolled the inner city area.

Wu Heng was unlucky to have randomly drawn the Outer City Area assignment.

Once the assignments were handed out, everyone had to abide by them, there was no way to change them.

Among the other members, besides the Swordsman ‘Galo Berley’ who resided in the inner city, the rest lived in the Outer City Area.

They naturally did not have any objections, and everyone left together from the association towards their assignment location.

After leaving the Inner City Area.

The bustling streets were deserted, with few pedestrians in sight.

Even the boisterous tavern was empty.

The alluring women who normally flaunted themselves at men by the door were nowhere to be seen.

Upon reaching the citywalls of the Outer City Area.

The Iron Guard Knights on duty and some gang members could be spotted.

After Wu Heng and his team showed their tokens issued by the City Hall, they began to patrol as per regulations.

Nothing major happened, it was just a patrol around the citywalls.

If an attack on the city was discovered, or if anyone inside tried to open the city gates, they had to step in to question or straightway kill.

It was deep into the night.

The team was a bit tired.

Wu Heng had just thought of letting the team rest at a deserted spot.

The Ranger Mata spoke up, “Captain, something is going on over there.”

As his voice died down, an immediate alarm was raised on the citywall, and although the guards in the watchtower did not ring the alarm bell, they were loudly alerting others of the special situation.

Looking down from the citywall.

A large group with torches could be seen rushing out from a location outside the city.

They ran straight into the buildings, they began killing anyone they found on sight. Sounds of fighting and violent brawls echoed from below instantly.

A large number of Iron Guard Knights and gang members swiftly climbed up the city wall, their eyes all focussing on the battle location outside the city.

Fires spread rapidly, with people constantly falling to the ground, being slain.

The battle, however, was taking place only in the distance.

There was no indication of them nearing the city walls.

“It’s the Hammer Party, killing the residents outside the city again.”
