The staff carried in two wooden coffins.
As they jostled, dirt fell from the cracks in the coffins.
Thud thud~!
With two dull sounds, the coffins were placed in the middle of the clearing.
The staff turned and left, closing the door behind them.
Retili glanced at the stone coffin and said, “I have collected two Mage corpses for you, it took some effort and involved some risks.”
“You have worked hard,” Wu Heng said.
About the risks mentioned by Retili.
Wu Heng wasn't too concerned.
A business primarily involved in the gray market inherently comes with risks.
Of course, her point was also quite clear: Mage corpses are harder to come by than those of other professions.
Wu Heng waved at the skeleton, and his skeleton attendant quickly walked over.
It opened the coffins, revealing two corpses in different states of decay.
Retili introduced, “The first corpse is an eleventh-level Illusionist Mage, the second is a seventh-level Mage; the sect was not identified, possibly Curse Magic or Energy Shaping.”
“I am very satisfied. How much more do I need to pay you?” Wu Heng asked blandly.
“You still need to pay 2 gold and 150 silver.”
The price of the corpses was much higher than usual. The bounty for a level 10 fugitive was only around three or four hundred silver.
The corpses actually fetched gold.
Wu Heng nodded, casually took out 2 gold coins and a pouch of silver coins, and handed them to Retili.
Retili gladly took them and then asked, “Shall I continue with the commission?”
“Continue,” he said.
Retili went out to get the commission, while Wu Heng had the skeleton cover the coffins and stored them in his Space Ring.
After a short while, Retili came back.
She was carrying a tray of pastries, her pale fingers picked up a piece, and brought it to Wu Heng's mouth, “Try some of the pastries just ordered from outside.”
Wu Heng didn't open his mouth, turning his head away, “I am getting older, can't eat too much sweet stuff.”
“You talk as if you are very old,” Retili said, unfazed, and put it into her own mouth.
“Humans age faster because they have shorter lives,” Wu Heng remarked.
Retili, while filling out the commission, said, “Even if you age, you're not older than me.”
“Many envy your Elf Race for looking good and living long,” Wu Heng lamented.
Or rather, all of the Human Race would envy the Elf Race.
A race that looks elegantly beautiful and lives longer.
Retili casually continued, “There are some ways to extend one's life. When you really need it, I'll post a commission for you.”
“It's not that easy. Even the old King of Yeko Kingdom couldn't escape the fate of death, let alone ordinary professionals like us,” Wu Heng said, his gaze falling on the glimpse of her pale chest as Retili bent down.
“Do you have some misunderstanding about ordinary professionals?” Retili seemed to notice his gaze, smiled, looked up briefly, then bent down again to continue writing the commission, “The royal family has its own rules, they do not allow extreme methods to extend life.
But there are still many ways to extend life, such as the Necromancy Sect's undead and the Secret Cultivation Hall, they are always collecting methods to prolong life.”
Indeed, life extension is a direction constantly re
The carriage moved slowly, and the chatter from the surrounding crowd began to filter into the carriage.
“These past few months, there have been more changes on Gold and Silver Island than in the last few years.”
“The Island Master is no ordinary person, so powerful and also a Mage, certainly stronger than those before.”
“I have a daughter at home, not much younger than the Island Master.”
“Isn't your daughter just 6 years old, how is that 'not much'?”
“Just start them off together, after a few years she'll be old enough.”
“I hear the Island Master likes Beastman girls, the ones he always brings guards to visit here on Lighthouse Street.”
“Liking Beastman, that's indeed rare.”
“Quite impressive!”
