The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 1292 - 950, One Person_2

Chapter 1292: Chapter 950, One Person_2

After a brief exchange, both parties made some probing attacks.

Both the skeletons and ghosts have reached Level 20, and their attributes are not lacking.

But compared to true heroes, there is still a significant gap, especially since the opposition’s Holy Court attributes restrain necromancy.

The Three Ghosts took turns possessing once, which made their souls feel like they were burning.

Not to mention being unable to stay for long, even multiple possessions would result in their own souls getting burned out completely.

Swoosh~!

Skull Shanshan flapped its wings and crashed head-on again. The Pope snorted and condensing countless Light Swords that shot toward the skeleton.

In mid-air,

The Light Attribute clone was shattered by the water flow, and the Religious Leader had reached the limit of his Sky Control ability, his body falling from the sky with Wu Heng diving in pursuit, his spear still smashing head-on.

"I should have killed you when you joined the association."

The Religious Leader’s mental state was collapsing; he had always monitored Wu Heng’s progress, watching him grow from an insignificant necromancer to a hero.

Until now, despite their preparations, things had turned out this way.

Wu Heng said lightly, "Go accompany the previous Pope. You’ll have company."

"Hmph! You think you can?" The Religious Leader swung his longsword again, a giant golden lion projection roared and pounced.

Another Special Item!

Wu Heng shattered the projection with his spear. The Religious Leader transformed into a golden light and fled into the distance, standing firm again as Holy Light and Sanskrit chant simultaneously appeared, restoring his state.

"Saidu! Is this all you got? You must have gotten your position through the back door!" Wu Heng sneered.

The Religious Leader’s eyelids trembled, "You truly believe we only arranged this fleet? Come out, your broken island won’t be saved."

Wu Heng displayed confidence, "Of course, I know you’ve mobilized churches around the Emerald Sea; there’ll be someone to deal with them."

The Religious Leader frowned.

...

Inside the radio room of the Island Lord’s Mansion.

Bright lights cast dappled shadows on the Emerald Sand Table.

Philippa wore her captain’s tricorn hat askew, and the Red Crown parrot on her shoulder, both curiously gazing at the magical sand table before them.

It’s only after Wu Heng explained that she understood.

The legendary Jade Sea Pirate King allegedly can avoid powerful fleets and plunder merchant ships from various places.

Having such a sand table allows one to know the movements of all ships within the Emerald Sea.

"Makes me want to go back to being a pirate," Philippa muttered.

Her gaze refocused on the blue sea, three Holy Court fleets were approaching from different directions.

Aside from the Holy Court ships, there were flags from various regions, indicating they were fleets from surrounding cities.

"Fleet Three, port side direction." She picked up the radio transceiver, her voice serious yet slightly excited, "The enemy is within range, load the cannonballs."

The radio only emitted the ’clatter’ of skeletal bones colliding.

The Skeleton Captains could receive orders but could not speak, only making sounds to indicate they had received them.

Philippa’s gaze returned to the sand table.

On the front of Fleet Three of the Gold and Silver Island, dense Holy Court fleet, three enemy ships exploded into light points without warning, disappearing like dust wiped by a deity.

"Get closer." She licked her lips, "Let those bastards see who’s sending them to hell."

As the fleet pushed forward, enemy ships disappeared from the sand table one by one.

The Gold and Silver Island’s fleet dealt dimensional strikes to regular ships.

They could clear distant fleets before the enemy saw them.

"All enemy ships have disappeared, approach and clean up the battlefield, don’t leave any survivors, bring back anything valuable," Philis said.

As she switched channels, new light points suddenly appeared on the edge of the Emerald Sea, with fleets bearing the association headquarters’ flags breaking the waves.

Appearing from the direction of Wu Heng’s battle.

"Headquarters?" Philippa narrowed her eyes, "Why are they here?"

She pondered, called Wu Heng but no answer, then called Shanaela to explain the situation.

She continued to direct other fleets to intercept the Holy Court ships based on their positions indicated by the sand table.

...

On the azure sea, the association’s ships sped through the waves.

"Keep accelerating." The Elf Mage with the star and moon emblem embroidered on his robe, Hongwen Association Leader ’Claudio,’ loudly commanded.

The crew responded loudly and ran off to busy themselves.

The Hongwen Association Leader walked onto the deck, the sea breeze mildly fluttering his robe hem. Beside him stood the beard-dense Hunter, Dwarf Leader, also at the bow.

The Dwarf Leader squinted, "Do you think we’ll still see Wu Heng alive? We both know the Holy Court’s methods of dealing with heretics."

The Elf Leader leaned on the railing, "Maybe this time, we’ll encounter another surprise? Speeding up isn’t a bad thing."

"Huh?" The Dwarf Leader’s beard trembled, "You’ve gone crazy studying ancient texts. Do you really think we’ll arrive in time? Unless he knew earlier and fled."

The Elf Leader smiled, "Wanna bet? I think he’ll hold out until we arrive."

The Dwarf Leader perked up, "Bet! The condition is that he hasn’t fled and holds out until we arrive. If he’s alive, you win... let’s wager a Special Item, how about your ’Star Compass’."

The Elf Leader nodded, "If I win, your treasured ’Heart of Molten Fire’ will be mine."

"Afraid of you?" The Dwarf Leader’s tone was heavy, "Since joining the association, headquarters has been restless."

"Rapidly becoming a hero isn’t too unusual," The Elf Leader was indifferent.

"Supporting him like this, if he dies, it could displease the Holy Court. Is it worth it?" The Dwarf continued.

The Sword of Justice is easy to understand.

Inheriting this title meant acting fairly and maintaining the overall situation.

But the Hongwen Association Leader, deeply engrossed in academic and research pursuits, also strongly supported Wu Heng, which was peculiar.

"I invited him to join the Hongwen Alliance." The Elf Leader continued, "Besides, I feel he’s somewhat similar to events recorded in ancient texts."

The Dwarf snorted heavily, "Just him, the association is always holding meetings, so annoying."

The Elf Leader continued, "About that bet, do you want in?"

The Dwarf Leader stroked his beard, "Bet! If you’re giving a Special Item, of course I’m willing."

...

The sea had turned into hell.

Broken ship hulls floated and sank in boiling water, planks smoked, and bodies shattered into blood mist from the aftermath.

The entire sea region was like boiling hot water, even the air distorted due to the high temperature.

The Religious Leader hovered in the air, Holy Light encasing his body like armor.

He stared at Wu Heng, a ghastly smile forming at his lips, "You think this is the extent of the Holy Court’s power?"

Before he finished speaking,

"Boom!"

The Pope transformed into golden light and rushed in!

His upper body robe shattered, revealing a body covered with sacred tattoos, the wound left by a Skull Assassin on his chest healing visibly.

"Can’t hold him off!" Glenda’s soul body violently fluctuated, her voice filled with rare urgency.

Xiao Xiao and Bella also had weak soul bodies.

Two skeletons crashed and staggered back.

Shanshan’s shell was shattered, both arms gone, the proud horn only half intact,

Tiao Tiao’s left leg and right arm were missing, his bone armor covered in web-like cracks.

They paid a high price, but still didn’t manage to kill even one from Wu Heng’s side first.

"Glenda, you all rest first," Wu Heng said.

Xiao Xiao and Bella returned to his body. Glenda then said, "I feel okay, I’ll help you guard, not fighting should be fine."

"Alright, don’t be reckless, I’ve got this," Wu Heng said.

"Okay!" Glenda nodded.

Just then, the Pope and Religious Leader suddenly flew towards each other.

Their bodies melted like pure gold, fusing in mid-air.

When the light dispersed, a new figure hovered in the air!

The figure’s entire body looked forged from gold, with six pairs of wings on its back, no hair nor eyebrows, and only pure white eyes on its face.

The terrifying divine power swept like a tsunami, pressing the sea below into a half-meter wide depression!

Wu Heng suddenly remembered something Lilith had casually mentioned.

"The Religious Leader and Pope are the same person, possibly the same."
