Chapter 109: Chapter 108, Buying Armor_l


    Duke, holding his money, had a face full of joy.


    It was his first mission, and he directly captured a wanted criminal.


    And with so much bounty, it was absolutely something to be happy about. “Captain, you were quite impressive yesterday. I didn’t even get a chance to react and you guys killed that guy.” Duke said loudly as he pocketed his money. Well, that’s quite straightforward for a Beastman to praise.


    Wu Heng replied: “The tools we used are confidential. They are our team’s secret weapons.”


    “Understood, I won’t tell anyone.” Duke thumped his chest with a bang and then asked again, “So do we have any tasks today?”


    “Tasks are not avable every day, and getting a task is not always a good thing. There might be dangers involved.” Wu Heng exined.


    Wu Heng’s optimistic view was quite different from Duke’s.


    He didn’t even go to the guild in ck Stone Town.


    Just arrived here, and being the captain, it wasn’t ideal to abstain.


    In fact, he also thought about how to take fewer tasks and ck off like he did in ck Stone Town, so he could have time to level up in the Zombie World. “Oh, right.” Duke nodded, indicating his understanding.<div>


    The two people chatted in the lounge for a while.


    The door was once again knocked, and Wu Heng’s heart jumped.


    Could it be another task?!


    “Come in!”


    A staff member pushed the door open and asked, “Is Captain Wu Heng here?” “Yes, what can I do for you?”


    “The renovationmission you posted in the guild, the construction team have arrived. They would like to confirm the ns with you.” The staff member said directly.


    Oh right! Yesterday, he posted a renovationmission on the guild tform. Such matters needed to be discussed, unlike Alchemy, where one could simply publish amission and operate without any interaction with the other party. “Let theme to the lounge!”


    “Okay.”


    The worker left and soon returned with a middle-aged man.


    The man held arge roll of construction drawings, looking quite professional. He nced at the people in the room.


    His eyes fell on Wu Heng, as he said with a smile, “Captain, we are fully capable of fulfilling yourmission.”


    The living habits and furniture specifications of humans and beastmen are quite different.


    Beastman’s furniture is somewhatrger and much heavier, while humans’ is a bit smaller.


    So, once the middle-aged man came in, he could conclude that Wu Heng was themissioner.


    Although Basen and Bawudong were human-sized, their postures and seating positions didn’t suggest they were the ones whomissioned the order.


    “Hmm, exin your n to me.” Wu Heng said directly.


    That house was almost good to go.


    Renovation wasn’t necessarily needed to be that probing.


    Ultimately, if a good living environment was desired, one could simply conquer a vi in the Zombie World.<div>


    “Okay.”


    The middle-aged man spread out the blueprints and began to describe the buildingyout and the materials for the furniture.


    Renovation in this world differed from the modern world.


    There is no need for wire trenching ortex paint.<div>


    The ground would be covered in wooden boards, and the walls would be covered with a material simr to wallpapers. Then there would be the regr tables and chairs.


    Unless it was arge building like the Professional Guild or City Hall.


    Otherwise, it would be just the process of furnitureing in, notplicated at all.


    After deciding on the color of wall covering and the type of furniture.


    Wu Heng asked: “How long will it take?”


    “We can finish it in three days at most. We only work during the day, so we won’t disturb your rest at night.”


    “Hmm.” Wu Heng nodded, “Let’s go. I’ll take you guys to see it, so we can start today.”


    “Okay!”


    Wu Heng, along with the middle-aged man and Duke, left the guild and walked towards the residence.


    He exined the situation of construction to Jianyi and Jian’er who stayed behind so as to prevent any misunderstanding that could lead to loss of life. After confirming, he handed it over to them so they could start working immediately.


    Leaving the residence,


    Duke asked: “Captain, where are we going next?”


    Wu Heng looked at him curiously.<div>


    Don’t I have any say in this?


    Wherever I go, you follow.


    He pondered for a while and then asked, “Do you know where to get good armor?”


    “Indeed, the Beastman Leather Armor Shop in the city is pretty good,” Duke replied immediately.


    “Eh, Beastman, huh. Can humans fit into Beastman armor?”


    “A lot of the armory shop’s customers are humans, they offer all kinds of styles.”


    Lundham City serves as a transit station between two countries and also resembles a wholesale market to arge extent.


    The cloth and spices of the humans and the leather and ores of Beastmen are all transported to cities across through here.


    Therefore, the Beastman Armor Shop also makes armor for humans, and human stores make armor for Beastmen as well.


    But there are many simr kinds of stores, and hence, there is considerablepetition.


    “Then take me there to have a look.”


    “As you wish, captain.”


    Duke took Wu Heng to the Outer City Area and entered a shop named ‘Moliao Armor’. The logo of the shop was a pair of tusks.<div>


    It had a typical Beastman style to it.


    Upon entering the shop, they were greeted with the pungent smell of leather.


    The shop was filled with all sorts, styles, and sizes of leather armor hanging on the walls.


    At the counter, a robust Beastman was wiping a leather cuirass. He was about to attend to the customers but paused when he saw that it was Duke.


    He returned behind the counter and asked, “Duke, you didn’t go to the association today?”


    “sk, this is my captain. We’re here to check out some armor,” Duke answered straightforwardly.


    Hearing there was a customer, he immediately put on a smile and asked, “Captain, what type are you interested in?”


    Wu Heng looked around the shop.


    The leather armor indeed came in two sizes – one for the human form and one for the Beastman which wasrger and thicker.


    Moving towards the middle, he stopped in front of a disy rack housing a hefty metal breastte and asked, “How much is this breastte?”


    The armor was huge, clearly meant for a Beastman body.


    With its shiny silver surface and leather interior, it appeared to be extraordinarily heavy and sturdy.


    “A single piece would cost you 125 silver coins. If you need a helmet, arm guards, and leg guards, the total cost would be 350 silver coins.”<div>


    Wu Heng nodded and continued to inquire, “Do you have any leather armor of a human size that is a single piecebining a breastte with a lower body skirt?”


    “Yes, such an armor offers better overall protection but is a bit troublesome to wear. Are you thinking of wearing it yourself?” The Beastman came out from behind the counter to ask.


    “Hmm, bring it for me to have a look.”


    The Beastman went inside, and when he came out again, he was holding a piece of leather armor.


    The piece was made for a human body. The armor for the upper body and skirt were connected.


    Wu Heng nodded, “How much?”


    “As you are Captain Duke, what money are you talking about? Consider it a gift,” the Beastman shopkeeper generously offered.


    It seems Duke does have some influence here.


    “He-he!” Duke scratched his head and snickered a bit.


    Wu Heng nced at him and continued, “I am also giving it as a gift, so tell me the price!”


    “Ah, a gift, huh. In that case, it would be 25 silver coins. If you need a helmet, arm guards, and boots, it would be an additional 18 silver coins.”


    The price wasn’t high. The leather armor, which sounded like in leather, also depended on the craftsmanship and materials used.


    If he were to buy it in the ck Stone Town, a simr set would cost more.


    Wu Heng found the price eptable and asked, “How many sets do you have?”


    “You want to buy more?”


    “How many do you have in stock?”


    “In the storehouse, we have over a hundred.”


    “I’ll take them all, and I’ll also take the set of metal armor.”


    The shopkeeper’s eyes widened in surprise as he inquired further into Duke’s intentions.


    He seemed stunned at the customer’s extravagant behavior.


    Duke said, “Captain, are you nning to resell it? Many merchants are doing this kind of business, but it’s not easy to make money nowadays.”


    “Go away, go away!” The shopkeeper pushed him aside and continued, “In the warehouse, we have a total of around a hundred and ten sets. Counting a hundred sets for you, and including this set of iron armor, the total is 4.650 silver coins.”


    Wu Heng nodded and was about to agree, but suddenly inquired, “Purchasing this much armor wouldn’t be a problem in the Inner City Area, right?”


    “You live in the Inner City Area?” The Beastman shopkeeper immediately said, “We can deliver it to you in batches. If it’s just over a hundred sets, it will not be an issue. If there were more, it would be better to rent a warehouse in the Outer City Area.”


    “Sounds good. Deliver the goods, and I will pay you.”


    “Alright!”


    Having Duke as a bridge, both parties had a good understanding.


    After taking stock of the items, they all went together to the Inner City Area.
