Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 87 Kidnapping the Helmsman
After the contract, Mary has changed from a bone spider to a blood spider. Monsters like the blood spider will only appear in maps after level 60. In other words, Mary has the potential to become at least a sixth-level creature.

After the transformation, Mary's body shrank to the size of a palm. She hung tightly on Wang Yue's thigh, making pitiful and helpless sounds.

"I'm hungry but I still want to eat."

Wang Yue couldn't feed it with dragon bones, so she could only take Mary to the body of the Snowman King and let it eat with its own mouth.

But before leaving, he took out all the copper ore in the package, and a backpack of stones was scattered on the ground, making the dungeon very messy for a while.

Wang Yue had already decided to send the skeletons to clean up later. Now he brought Mary back to the [Storage Room] and pointed at a pile of [First-Level Bone Fragments].

"Don't eat it all, remember to leave some for me."

Before Wang Yue could finish her words, Mary had already crawled into the pile of bones.

Soon, a crunching sound came from the pile of materials.

"Keep it for now, it will surely be very useful in the future."

It is not possible to find helpers in all situations. Wang Yue still needs to build up his own strength. In case his subordinates rebel one day, only the contracted summons can stand by him.

This time when he came to the [Storage Room], he not only took away some summoning materials, but also replaced all the monsters guarding the room with level 12 [Skeleton Soldiers].

"It's too cheap to use level 1 cannon fodder to guard this place, but if there really are invaders, there is absolutely no difference between level 1 and level 12."

After taking care of the matter in the storage room, Wang Yue teleported herself back to the [Shelter].

There are still a lot of ores in the snowman cave that can be mined actively, and he has to race against time to dig out all the stones in the cave.

The zombies had just finished their work and returned to their wooden houses when the cruel Wang Yue called them out to continue working.

"They are all dead people. You can't sleep. What are you doing hiding in the room?"

The wooden house was locked tightly, and even if Wang Yue knocked hard on the door, the sailors would not open it for him.

Even the boatswain, with whom he thought he had the best relationship, ignored him. Everyone pretended that they were not at home and were unwilling to go out.

"I am so disappointed. You are so lazy that you have failed my expectations of you."

Just when Wang Yue was about to return empty-handed, he saw a fishing rod hidden behind a wooden house.

Although people can hide behind the house, the fishing rod cannot be hidden.

"I remember that was the leatherworker's house, so the man with the fishing rod must be the helmsman Oki."

Wang Yue remembered that the old man seemed to have some friendship with the old leather-making woman, perhaps they were old lovers when they were alive.

Since the living dead are resting, Wang Yue can just call the helmsman and let this fifth-level thug do things for her.

"What are you doing? Peeping?"

Wang Yue’s sudden appearance startled the already sneaky Ogi. He had been wanting to knock on the door to see what was going on with the leatherworker, but due to his face, he could only stand outside the house at a loss.

"Go away young man. I'm getting annoyed."

Ogi put his ear against the cabin, trying to hear what was going on inside.

"You just want to see who's inside, I'll knock on the door for you."

"Hey, young man, don't be impulsive."

Ogi grabbed Wang Yue's arm and shook his head wildly.

"Uncle, you are so troublesome."

Wang Yue didn’t understand what the old man was thinking. He obviously wanted to see the person in the house, but he was doing useless work outside the house. This might be the behavior of straight men that is popular on the Internet.

But when he thought about it, this gave him a reason to take him away.

"I have an idea."

Wang Yue paused deliberately.

Looking at Ogi's expression, his look changed from confusion to curiosity, and Wang Yue knew that her chance had come.

"Leatherworkers only appear when there is leather, and I need to get some demon leather right now. If you are willing to deliver the materials to me, wouldn't that be fair and square?"

After listening to Wang Yue's proposal, Ogi nodded and agreed with him.

The old man grabbed the fishing rod and shook it, and the thin rod of the long fishing rod shrank back, and finally the fishing rod became the length of an ordinary stick.

"Come on, I'll wait for you to figure out a solution."

Omu showed a proud smile. It turned out that he showed the fishing rod on purpose just to catch the big fish Wang Yue.

Although he found himself being hooked, they both had the same goal, so Wang Yue did not pursue his fishing behavior any further.

"Come on, let me take you to a good place."

Although he failed to trick the zombies into working again, Wang Yue found stronger helpers this time, which gave him more confidence in exploring the cave.

The two of them teleported from the [Undead Ruins] to the [Ice Fortress] one after the other and appeared in front of the empty statue.

"Several years ago, humans and sub-races could live in harmony. After a certain massacre, sub-races no longer trust us, and many sub-races were brutally exterminated."

Ogi recognized the existence of the statue, but he could only say from his memory that the cat queen once led her people to escape the massacre, and later the cat people completely disappeared from the continent.

"The fact that the transmission node can be connected here is destiny's arrangement. Young man, you should think carefully about the intention of the God of Destiny."

"Damn God of Destiny, I arranged the location for the internal test, but I didn't know the specific situation of this island."

Wang Yue told Ogi but he didn't understand, it was just his boring complaint.

But Ogi's story is not over yet. He walked to the statue and gently stroked the base of the statue with his hand.

"Legend has it that the Cat Queen escaped from the continent with the help of a hero. The name of this hero has been forgotten, but I believe you can find clues about that hero here."

After Ogi finished speaking, he bowed respectfully to the statue.

Then, the hidden task appeared in Wang Yue’s interface.

[Mission Objective: Find the Expedition King's Treasure]

[Mission Reward: Unreal Theater]

"It's actually another toy-like prop, but the effect is definitely not that simple for me."

[Unreal Theater] is a performance-type toy that can play an animation in front of the player after use. It is considered a fun toy.

The problem is that the mission itself is too "illusory". Apart from a piece of meaningless dialogue as a clue, Wang Yue can't find any other useful information.

“Hint, Center Lake, fishing.”

"Well done, Xiao Nuo. You finally learned to take the initiative to show up and explain for me."

With clear instructions, Wang Yue didn't need to waste energy thinking. He took Wei Mu directly to the central lake.

Speaking of fishing, the best fisherman on the Breaking Waves is the helmsman, and the cats are all born with a natural talent for fishing. The cooperation between the two will definitely enable them to complete the task successfully.

"Stop hunting and follow me to go fishing."

Wang Yue also called all the cat people he met, and more than a dozen people surrounded the central lake. Even Wang Yue himself took a fishing rod and joined the treasure fishing operation.

"Wooden fishing rod. The effect is to increase your fishing proficiency level by 10. Once you get the fishing rod, pass it to the next person quickly. Let's catch the treasure before the sun sets."
