Chapter 375: Chapter 367, Heavy Arrow_l
Inside the study at the City Lord’s Manor.
Fang Hao saw Rebecca, leaning back in the chaise lounge.
Naked, covered with a light blue blanket.
Her pale and slender collarbone and round thighs were exposed to the air.
But there was fatigue all over her face.
From their several interactions, Fang Hao had figured it out.
Rebecca definitely had a habit of sleeping nude and was quite reluctant to leave her bed.
“Mrs. Rebecca,” Fang Hao bowed slightly.
“Hmm, why are you here so early,” Rebecca yawned and said.
Fang Hao sat down nearby, “How were the results?”
He was naturally asking about the operation to capture the Faceless.
Last night, the sounds of the military operation could still be heard, and some nobles’ residences had seen battles.
Not until this morning did the city gradually return to calm.
“Not bad, we even caught some big fish.” Rebecca revealed a smile.
No wonder, Rebecca was in a good mood this morning; it was because the operation had been successful.
In this case, even if there were some Faceless who had not been caught.
They would start to worry and stay quiet for a while.
Those transmigrators living near Lyss City would also be a little safer.
“As long as it was effective.”
Rebecca yawned, wrapped herself in the blanket, stood up, and took out five money bags from the desk and put them on the table.
“This is the agreed remuneration, I didn’t expect those guys to actually hire a mercenary band.” Rebecca sat in the chair and started speaking.
“Thankyou, boss. I wish you to make a fortune,” Fang Hao put away the money bags.
Each bag contained 2,000 gold coins, making a total of 10,000.
The reward was quite hefty.
“I was also slightly surprised, your subordinates are so powerful, 20 men killed more than too and successfully captured 6 alive, how did you do that?” Rebecca continued asking.
Even for an army crackdown, 20 men couldn’t take down this manor.
“Perhaps they collectively suffered from diarrhea. When we went over, they already didn’t have much combat power left.” Fang Hao rubbed his chin and lied.
The reason for their victory in the battle was primarily due to Demitrija and Rolana’s roles.
An orange-rank hero and a dark gold-rank hero.
They alone could capture this manor, let alone 20 men.
Hence, even if there were only 20 bandits, it may still have been a toss-up.
Rebecca glared at him and didn’t ask anything more about this. She continued, “The remaining guys will stay quiet for a period of time. Take this, and when something happens, I’ll contact you in advance.”
Speaking of which, Rebecca took out a Sound-transmitting Shell and pushed it over to Fang Hao.
“This is a Sound-transmitting Shell, it’ll be convenient for me to contact you. Of course, it’s only one-way. Your shell can only receive messages.”
Rebecca quietly explained, afraid that Fang Hao wouldn’t know what it was.
“Oh.” Fang Hao responded and directly took it away.
After discussing the mission, the two chatted a while about some other matters.
In the end, Rebecca placed a large uniform order for all of the City Lord Manor’s servants in Fang Hao’s name.
Essentially providing indirect support to Fang Hao once again.
Leaving the City Lord’s Manor.
Fang Hao, accompanied by Anjia and the others, immediately left Lyss City. They switched horses at Gray Bear’s village and returned to their territory.
The two Bone Dragons landed in front of the Manor House and Fang Hao jumped down from the dragon’s back.
“Carry the fossil and come with me to the Skeleton Conversion Field,” Fang
Hao stopped a skeleton troll.
The Skeleton Troll picked up the Mantismen fossil and followed Fang Hao to the Conversion Field.
Upon reaching the Conversion field.
The fossil was thrown straight in.
The sand in the pool started rolling and bit by bit, swallowed the fossil.
[Skeleton Mantis conversion countdown, 6 hours 59 minutes and 58 seconds…] Seeing the countdown, Fang Hao felt a burst of joy in his heart.
This meant that the Mantisman had begun to transform, and from the timing of the transformation, its rank wouldn’t be low.
He remembered that the Bone Dragon took about 8 hours to transform.
With the Mantisman’s 7-hour transformation time, its rank would certainly not be lower by much.
Now, it was just a matter of waiting for the transformation time to finish to see the exact rank of the troop.
Upon returning to the Manor House.
He saw Rolana sitting rigidly in the hall.
The maids dared not approach and took detours while passing by her.
This time, Rolana accompanied Fang Hao back. She needed the tools Fang Hao made and the seeds for planting herbs.
Fang Hao also didn’t want this woman to stay around too long.
In an open space, utilizing the hundred-fold amplification, a full range of tools, a hoe, iron shovel, mining pick among others, were made.
“Rolana, the tools are ready,” Fang Hao called from the door.
Rolana walked outside and saw several skeletons tidying up a large pile of tools on the ground.
“What about the seeds?” Rolana continued asking.
“They’re all prepared for you, here they are.” Fang Hao handed over the seeds to Rolana.
“Hmm.” Rolana nodded.
After all the tools were packed and secured on the back of the Bone Dragon.
She got onto the Bone Dragon and left.
After sending off Rolana, Fang Hao came back into the Manor House to eat the dinner Eira had prepared.
Night fell.
Within the Life Spring.
Anjia finally left.
The two leaned against each other in the pool.
“Eira, check among the maids tomorrow if there’s anyone who’s familiar with herbs,” Fang Hao said quietly by the poolside.
Eira seemed a bit tired, lying weakly beside him.
However, hearing Fang Hao’s words, she still agreed and said, “Oh, as you wish, master.”
Fang Hao thought for a moment, “Right, they also need to know how to read.”
“Okay.”
Seeing that Eira was indeed tired, he held her and they retired to their room.
On the dawn of the second day.
Eira had already left bed.
Fang Hao also got out of bed.
After a simple wash and dress, he went downstairs.
“Master, Scholar Nelson is waiting for you outside,” a cleaning maid said to him as he descended the stairs.
Nelson was out?
Hearing this news, Fang Hao was instantly happy.
The only educated man in the territory had finally ended his seclusion.
“Alright, I know,” Fang Hao replied and quickly walked outside.
As soon as he left the Manor, he saw Nelson sitting on a bench at the entrance, behind him was a skeleton hero in a long robe.
“Good morning, Lord,” Nelson saw Fang Hao, stood up and bowed slightly.
Nelson had been working on making heroes at the Viscera Museum.
After working non-stop for nearly half a month, Fang Hao was worried he’d work himself to the bone.
“Thank you for your hard work, Scholar Nelson,” Fang Hao also showed a smile.
“My duty, sir,” after Nelson was done, he made way to the side, “Heavy Arrow, haven’t you greeted the Lord yet?”
The Skeleton hero behind him stepped forward, kneeled down on one knee and said, “Greetings, Lord.”
