Chapter 133: 131, Illusion Veil_1



“Type: Special Item”

“Function: Transformation, mimicry.”

“Side effect: When worn, it will unconsciously attract males.”

(Description: When worn, it covers the body and clothing with a ‘female’ magic illusion and mimics a ‘female’ voice.

Physical examination cannot deceive the transforming effect.

If perception is ’30’ or above, it will see through the ‘transformation’ effect.)

Shit!

Ghost Hag’s ability.

When in the Ruined Temple, a few scantily clad nuns with provocative expressions made a deep impression.

If they hadn’t been in the form of the Ghost Hag, an old woman with a face full of sores, Wu Heng would have found them quite an eye-candy.

The Ghost Hag’s ability to change her appearance is called ‘Transformation’.

Even after becoming a skeleton, this skill had stayed.

But impersonating a living being had imposed certain restrictions.

This special item in front of him must somehow be related to the Ghost Hag, otherwise how could it be so similar to her?

The effect of transformation can turn one into a woman and mimic voices.

This would completely meet the requirements for disguises, but this side effect… attracting males.

Well…, it might not be unacceptable.

Attraction, huh!

Not like anything really needs to be done.

And besides, the duration of wearing it might not be that long.

After he thought it through quickly, he asked straight away: “How much for this veil?”

The woman looked at him and smiled, “Two thousand five hundred silver coins.”

“That expensive!”

The Corpse-Wrap only cost 1500 silver coins when he bought it, and the invisibility effect of that was not inferior to this one.

The woman still kept her smile, “Given the side effect and display effect of this item, it’s worth the price.”

The side effect of the Corpse-Wrap was that if it was used by a living being, they would be tainted by the death energy on it, their skin would rot.

For living beings, this was a major side effect.

But unconsciously attracting men, it didn’t seem to pose much of a problem.

“Alright, I’ll take it.” Wu Heng took out the corresponding amount from his Space Ring and handed it to her.

After the woman had recorded it, she handed the veil to Wu Heng.

“This is now yours.”

Wu Heng nodded, “Okay, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

“Take care, customer.”

After leaving the consortium, Wu Heng went straight back to the association’s lounge.

Duke wasn’t there, Wu Heng was the only one in the lounge.

Sitting on the sofa, he rethought his plans.

He took out the veil he just bought and put it on his head.

A transparent light covered his whole body from the top of his head, then everything returned to normal.

Wu Heng raised his arms, looked at his palms and the back of his hands, and then looked at his body.

There were no changes at all.

“Holy crap, don’t tell me it’s not working!”

He took out a mirror from his Space Ring, placed it on the coffee table facing him.

Looking at it, Wu Heng’s expression on his face became weird.

In the mirror was him – golden hair, green-eyed, fair-skinned with rosy cheeks.

Shit, I feel hot!

He actually turned into a woman.

But looking at his arms and body with his own eyes, there was no change at all.

Through the mirror, he could see slightly protruding breasts.

“Won’t this attract even more attention if I go out?”

This image was not much different from the nuns he’d seen before. How many strong men would stare at him when he went out?

“It would be better if the face could appear less attractive.”

He thought to himself.

Another beam of light flashed over him.

His appearance began to change again, this time less provocative.

This effect made Wu Heng happy.

The appearance could be adjusted.

This item was worth it.

He continued, “Lower it some more.”

“Keep lowering it.”

After lowering it a few times, Wu Heng transformed into an ordinary middle-aged woman.

She wasn’t ugly, but you couldn’t tell she was especially attractive either.

A normal, unremarkable face was less likely to attract other people’s attention.

Feeling that there were no problems,

Wu Heng walked out of the lounge, and went to the reception desk.

The receptionist looked at him and smiled, “Ma’am, how may I help you?”

“No, I’m just looking around.”

Confirming that the receptionist didn’t recognize him and that his voice did sound like a woman’s, he walked out of the association and headed for the Lower Town Area.

Wu Heng left the association and headed straight for the Lower Town Area.

According to the information obtained from the interrogation yesterday, he arrived at the location of the ‘Pinned Gang’.

There were hardly any people around.

Only at the entrance were two gang members leaning against a wall, standing guard.

Wu Heng summoned Xiao Xiao and asked her to explore inside the building.

If they discovered someone like Rocky, the boss of the Pinned Gang, they would send someone in to kill him straightaway.

Soon, Xiao Xiao returned, burrowing back into his body.

The shared vision from just a moment ago.

There was no one in the building, not even in the small courtyard.

“They couldn’t have run already, could they!” Wu Heng muttered.

The target hasn’t been discovered.

Wu Heng made a round in the neighborhood, casually flirted at a few burly men, then went straight into a nearby pub.

The pub was a mixed bag – you might catch a piece of useful information, or stake out until your target arrived.

At this time, the pub was not particularly busy, but there were still quite a few patrons.

Wu Heng chose a seat in the corner.

A bartender soon came over asking, “Madam, what’ll you have? We have drinks made especially for ladies.”

Wu Heng glanced at the menu and ordered a fruit wine.

The beverages in Lundham City were somewhat pricier than in Black Stone Town.

Just one glass of this lady’s fruit wine alone cost 75 copper coins.

The price was a bit steep.

After paying for her drink, the bartender soon brought it over.

Wu Heng quietly began drinking, all the while eavesdropping on the patrons nearby.

“It’s pretty dangerous out there lately, I’ve heard several merchant caravans have gone missing.”

“Yeah, we were originally hired to escort a caravan. Because of this incident, the job got called off. We’ve been idle all day ever since, money’s about to run out.”

“It’s best to wait it out, going out now is asking for death!”

“Rumor has it that the Hammer Party blocked off the entire route. Iron Guard should be stepping up soon. This situation can’t go on – it’ll affect tax revenues.”

“Let’s hope so… Those damned bastards. Seem like they’re in dire need of money recently. What madness!”

Wu Heng took sips of her drink as she eavesdropped on their conversation.

The topic wasn’t about the Pinned Gang, but she’d heard about this ‘Hammer Party’.

Duke had mentioned this incident a few days ago.

A bandit group blocking the road and plundering merchant caravans. Their leader and key members were all wanted criminals, offering high bounties.

He was precisely referring to this ‘Hammer Party’.

Things have escalated to this point now.

They’ve managed to halt all the city’s caravans from leaving town.

Quite a ferocious bunch indeed.

After sitting for a while, Wu Heng didn’t get any information about the Pinned Gang.

Just as she was preparing to leave and find a place to remove her veil, she caught sight of the staircase leading to the second floor.

The second floor housed private rooms, usually for people who needed privacy for their talks.

There were footsteps creaking on the staircase.

First, a pair of slender, fair legs came into view. The woman was wearing a deep green dress embroidered with slits that ran high up her thighs, allowing a full view of her legs.

Then, a woman stepped down, her wavy red hair draped over her deep blue shawl.

The pub went quiet in an instant. All the men’s eyes were involuntarily drawn to her.

Wu Heng also looked up.

The woman might not compare to Money Cat’s ‘Slyther’ or the Snake Badge Consortium’s ‘Laisia’, but she possessed a charm of her own.

She gave off the allure of an alluring mature woman from the marketplace blending with the dignity of a highborn lady, inexplicably mesmerizing men.

“Big sis-in-law!”

The guys downstairs echoed in unison.

Holy crap!

Whose gang leader’s wife was this?

“What’s up with the Pinned Gang? They’ve brought so many guys with them to the pub.”

“Heard that the Pinned Gang ticked off someone. They’re so worried about their woman, needing extra guys for protection.”

“Cut the BS. What sort of trouble the Pinned Gang, a mere fringe gang, could’ve possibly made. If they really did, they would’ve run off long ago. I think it’s because their woman got a lover, so these guys are keeping an eye on her. Everyone knows that a few years back, fights left Rocky incapable of touching women.”

“Well hell, I’m available! She should’ve chosen me as her lover!”

“You’re no better than me. She should’ve chosen me.”

“…”

As she listened to their covert whispering, Wu Heng stood up.

Following the Pinned Gang’s boss’s wife, she left the pub, too.

Night descended.

Wu Heng came to the Pinned Gang’s residence once more.

After waiting for a while in the shadows, Xiao Xiao returned from afar.

Sharing the vision, the scene inside the residence unfolded in her mind.

The woman from before was sitting on the edge of the bed, busy with something, but there was no sign of the butcher, Rocky.

Ran away after his plan to assassinate her failed?

That didn’t seem right. If he had run away, why would he leave his underlings and wife behind?

Wu Heng stood in the alley, she didn’t want to drag this out any longer.

Be it the guild or the Zombie World.

Neither had the time to allow her to investigate this matter.

Having informed Basen and Bawudong to be on standby, she hopped over the wall into the courtyard, unlocked the door, and stepped into the room.

The room wasn’t very big, and was devoid of people.

There was a dark green embroidered dress, shawl, and some light purple lace underwear on the bed.

At that moment, the sound of running water and rising steam came from a separate room.

Wu Heng gave a signal.

Bawudong then rushed directly into the room.
