The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 1372 - 987_2

Chapter 1372: Chapter 987_2

The other two ghosts nodded as well.

The radio was sent over, and even though the other side didn’t understand the principle of the radio, given the deep animosity between the parties, they would surely suspect whether there was any lurking danger in such an instrument.

It’s very likely that they were using this method to conduct tests.

Any slight sign of abnormalities would alert The Holy Court that the radio was being eavesdropped on.

They would stop using it in the future.

Bella said, "What if this is true?"

The group fell silent once more.

Xiao Xiao glanced around, then said, "Isn’t that even better! Last time we couldn’t get that body, it felt like such a pity! And think about it, if he can restore his body, wouldn’t we not need to cultivate zombies in prison anymore, and just let him keep resurrecting, using his body as our skeleton?"

The group stared at her with wide eyes.

Xiao Xiao was somewhat bashful, "What’s the matter? Isn’t this method good?"

Bella sighed, "Xiao Xiao... your idea is truly unique."

The Lady chimed in, "You must be the Necromancer!"

"Isn’t it good? I feel it’s pretty good; he can’t defeat us anyway." Xiao Xiao pondered for a moment, feeling there was nothing wrong with her suggestion.

Wu Heng concluded, "What Xiao Xiao said isn’t wrong. Even if they really found this Special Item, it wouldn’t be much of a threat to us. Let’s not divulge anything about the radio because of this matter."

"Right!" Glenda added, "Other races also use the radio, and the fact that it can be eavesdropped on must not be revealed, not even to Lilith."

After discussing, the group felt it wasn’t a big deal anymore.

Even if the Religious Leader could be resurrected, it wouldn’t pose much of a threat to their current strength.

The greatest danger remained with the deity behind The Holy Court.

Upon realizing this, they relaxed quite a bit, "Then there’s no issue. Let’s stay here one more day, and we’ll return to Gold and Silver Island tomorrow."

...

At dusk, the queen, Brittany, came in from outside.

The royal robe had been replaced with home attire.

Seeing Wu Heng sitting on the chair, she immediately looked up and asked, "My lord, how did I perform today?"

Wu Heng looked at her expectant expression and smiled, "Very well, I feel you’re not inferior to other kings, very imposing."

"Really? As long as I didn’t disgrace you." Brittany beamed with a full smile.

Wu Heng hadn’t stayed long downstairs and only caught the beginning of the speech, but Brittany’s performance was indeed impressive.

Some things are just like that.

When the crown was placed on her head, her entire demeanor changed.

The majesty of a king naturally emerged.

Just like when someone truly becomes wealthy, you can sense their poise and confidence through their words and actions.

Brittany continued, "Tonight, I plan to discuss with Sister Wen Mansha again to finalize the ceasefire agreement and then arrange for an envoy to sign it."

"As long as you guys discuss and decide, the Mechanist from Gold and Silver Island is still over in Lundham City. Plan the time, and help get electricity to the kingdom." Wu Heng said straightforwardly.

Brittany’s expression froze, "Sister Wen Mansha gets to take the lead again."

Wu Heng chuckled, "It’s not that serious. Wen Mansha is easy to talk to; you two should discuss things properly."

Brittany pouted, walked over, and sat in his lap, coquettishly saying, "My lord, you have to speak for me then, don’t let Sister Wen Mansha be too harsh."

Wu Heng wrapped his arm around her waist, "Alright! You guys discuss, and if it doesn’t work out, I’ll speak for you."

"Mhm!" Brittany immediately smiled.

The mention of electrification brought a gleam of anticipation to Brittany’s eyes.

Gold and Silver Island, known as the Jade Sea Pearl, shone brightly day and night, with a flourishing commercial atmosphere.

If she followed Gold and Silver Island’s example, she could achieve similar results.

The results wouldn’t be inferior to past kings, becoming a beloved ruler in everyone’s hearts.

Afterwards, the two discussed future developments briefly.

Wu Heng, holding her waist, slid his hand into her clothes at the back, caressing her smooth skin while saying, "I’ll be returning to Gold and Silver Island tomorrow. I can’t be away too long; I’ll arrange a few skeletons to protect you."

Brittany asked with some reluctance, "My lord, will you come to see me again?"

"I’ll leave you a few more train tickets. Once things settle down here, you can come stay on Gold and Silver Island for a few days, and it won’t take much time." Wu Heng smiled.

"You’re right." Brittany smiled again.

After all, with the Phantom Train, it wouldn’t take long to travel back and forth.

Wu Heng patted her on the bottom, letting her get up, then opened the [Mansion Skill] and called inside, "Tiao Tiao No. 2, Sandbag Boxing No. 2, come out and be responsible for protecting her."

Two tall skeletons walked out from inside.

Brittany raised an eyebrow, focusing on the wings behind them.

She had seen such a design before. It was a particularly special skeleton attendant.

Wu Heng continued, "These two skeletons are Level 20. Except for heroes, they can’t be killed by anything else. If they encounter something they can’t handle, just leave with the Phantom Train. Here are the tickets."

Brittany’s eyes widened.

Level 20... skeletons.

Skeletons of the same level as heroes, used to protect herself.

"Brittany?" Wu Heng called.

Brittany immediately snapped back to reality, "Thank you, my lord, I will remember."

Wu Heng continued, "You should also work on leveling up. Once you reach Level 18, I’ll help raise your reputation to become a hero."

Brittany showed her gratitude, "Fleeing to Gold and Silver Island was my best decision."

"You were very brave back then too."

Knock, knock, knock~!

A gentle knocking sound came from outside, accompanied by the maid’s voice, "Your Highness! Dinner is ready."

"Okay, got it!" Brittany called towards the door.

Then she took Wu Heng’s hand, "Let’s eat first, then get some rest early. You’ll need to work a bit harder tonight."

...

The next day, Wu Heng accompanied Brittany through her first morning meeting after ascending to the throne.

Brittany performed well, maintaining a lead throughout the meeting.

Everything was arranged by her.

After the meeting ended and the ministers left.

Wu Heng bade her farewell, "I’m leaving now. Call me if anything comes up."

"Once I settle things here, I’ll go over to see you." Brittany said reluctantly.

Behind her were two tall skeleton attendants.

By now, they were dressed in the kingdom’s attire, with every part of their bodies covered.

They looked like two tall trusted aides.

Wu Heng patted her head, "Alright, I’ll introduce you to Mini and the others then."

After saying goodbye, Wu Heng put on the [Train Captain’s Hat], and the train appeared.

He boarded the train, waved goodbye.

The train door closed, and the train vanished.

...

Main headquarters, the leader’s study.

The Light Illumination Stone Lamp cast a glow on the table, bathing the entire room in a dim yellow light.

The soul of the Religious Leader hovered in mid-air, like a dark mist entwining above a fist-sized ’Companion Yin Jade’.

Absorbing the strands of necromantic power emitted by the Yin Jade.

Becoming a ghost, without a contract with a Necromancer, required absorbing Yin Jade to maintain the stability of the soul.

In another corner of the study, a mannequin almost identical to his original appearance sat quietly, dressed in luxurious robes, its head slightly tilted.

Heh~!

The Religious Leader suddenly sneered.

Besides his deep-seated hatred for Wu Heng during this period, a trace of... regret had also emerged.

He had underestimated the other party, again and again.

From that inconspicuous professional on Gold and Silver Island to a presence that could now shake the entire Holy Court, Wu Heng’s growth had far outstripped his expectations.

If only he had known today, when he first set foot on Gold and Silver Island, he should have crushed his throat right away, instead of foolishly adhering to the absurd rules of the association!

"But you are equally foolish, adhering to the association’s rules."

The Religious Leader glanced at the radio beside him.

"Wu Heng... we’ll see."
