The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 937

Chapter 937: Chapter 749, Superpowers are Ours Too Chapter 937: Chapter 749, Superpowers are Ours Too He woke up midway.

“This guy got to watch the whole show for free, huh!”

Wu Heng felt she wasn't that drunk in the first place and was just feigning sleep.

But he couldn't very well say it outright, as she was awake at the time of the handover with Xi Ligui.

He could only respond, “I had no idea.”

“Guess you didn't know since you were so engrossed. It seemed like Shi Yali kinda likes you too,” muttered Xi Ligui.

“No need for your sister's jealousy, huh.”

“That's right, after all, she's my sister…” Xi Ligui fell asleep after finishing his sentence.

Meanwhile, Mini's voice came from the other side, “Steward, they're putting on a new one, want to come watch?”

Xi Ligui's voice immediately turned serious, “Wu Heng, that's all the information on Gold and Silver Island. I'll notify you if there are new updates.”

“Oh, okay,” Wu Heng answered.

Then, the communication from the other side was cut off; they probably went to watch the movie.

What was Shi Yali thinking?

What was she really thinking?

With no other matters, Wu Heng also left the radio room.

He chatted with the ghosts in the study for a while and then returned to his bedroom to rest.

The next day.

A town overrun by skeletons.

New notices were posted on the announcement board, and a bard stood on a wooden box, loudly reading the content.

“Notice to all residents of the town:

Lundham City has always maintained peaceful coexistence with Yeko Kingdom at the border, without any cross-border harassment.

However, after the old king died, the Kingdom began to destabilize, frequently crossing the border to disturb Lundham City.

Half a month ago, they even gathered tens of thousands of troops, crossed the boundary, and attacked Lundham City, assaulting the citizens within…

…Such vile acts have repeatedly caused border conflicts and alarmed the citizens.

Therefore, Lundham City has assembled its army to drive out the enemy and retaliate.

This has nothing to do with the merchants and residents in the city. Where the army passes, it will not harass the people or seize property.

This announcement is made to provide the reasons for our actions.”

The bard finished reading aloud.

Quiet settled around once more.

As people moved closer, a murmur of discussion started.

“The notice says Yeko Kingdom attacked first, is it true or not?”

“It's stamped with the association's seal, it must be true.”

“Isn't that the buffer zone with the Beastmen, what's there to attack?”

“I heard they're quite wealthy over there.”

“Damn it, which commander gave the orders? So many people died.”

“Criminals of the Kingdom!”

After the discussion, everyone knew the actual reason.

The proclaimed invasion of the undead was, in fact, a counterattack from the other side.

It was their own side that was the villain, instigating a war they couldn't win.

The crowd quickly dispersed, spreading the news.

The same notice was posted in all the towns and villages occupied by skeletons.

Whether people believed it or not, it stirred up considerable interest.

Black Stone Town, Association.

The door to the Steward's Office swung open.

Yuli barged in, “Auntie, they've posted notices in the town, I've grabbed one.”

Processing documents, Slyther looked up, “Let me see it.”

Yuli handed over the document and sat down, saying casually, “These guys obviously saw Lundham City is rich and want to snatch it. They're not worth an ounce of pity.”

Slyther and Yuli were somewhat more aware of the situation in Lundham City than the outside world.

After all, Money Cat's properties were there.

And Yeko Kingdom had tried multiple times to infiltrate and stir trouble in the city.

Only now with this notice did they learn that Yeko Kingdom had actually mobilized the army to attack.

Wen Mansha had then used the Skeleton Army to counterattack, pushing deep into the Kingdom's territory.

“Idiots of Yeko Kingdom,” Slyther cursed.

She was thoroughly disappointed with Yeko Kingdom now.

An Evil Cult had slaughtered the villages around Black Stone Town, and no one dealt with them, yet they gathered so many troops to attack other cities.

In the end, not only did they fail to take the city, but their own were also defeated to this sorry state.

Calling them idiots was putting it mildly.

Yuli leaned in closer, smiling, “Auntie, if we put it that way, we're now in Wu Heng's territory! I don't want to be a squad leader anymore, tell him to let me be the City Lord, and I'll bring our folks over.”

Slyther gave her a glance, “What will you do when Yeko Kingdom recovers and counterattacks? You think this is child's play, whoever grabs it gets to keep it?”

“I doubt it; wait, I'll go write to Wu Heng, I want to be City Lord.” Yuli exclaimed excitedly, bouncing out of the room.

Slyther watched Yuli's departing figure and sighed softly.

Zombie World, Shanfu Port Base.

The Skeleton Army escorted the truck slowly into the base.

Wu Heng got off the truck, and Qi Hancai with several core members of the base approached from a distance, “Commander.”

The people behind him also followed suit with a salute, “Leader.”

Wu Heng nodded, “Let's go to the meeting room!”

They went together to the meeting room.

Several technicians reported on the training of the skeletons on the island during this period and some of the changes to the base.

Wu Heng listened for a while and told them to keep up the good work.

The crowd saluted once more and left the meeting room.

Only Wu Heng and Qi Hancai remained.

“Tell me the news about the Zombie King,” Wu Heng said.

Qi Hancai nodded and spoke, “Yesterday, I brought up this matter again with the Korea Rescue Team. Since we need to arrange troops, I inquired in detail about the location of the Zombie King and the time needed for the march. After returning here, I gathered some more information and now roughly know where the Zombie King is.”

Indeed, a good idea.

It's likely that the Korea Rescue Team didn't intend to conceal it.

After all, it wouldn't be a bad thing if the Zombie King were taken down by us.

“How far is it from our location?”

Qi Hancai pulled out a map, “Approximately here.”

Wu Heng looked at it; the base was indeed not close, but given the size of Korea, it wouldn't take too long.

“The distance is manageable.”

Qi Hancai continued, “There is something else. As the Skeleton Army has been advancing, we've nearly claimed half of Korea. The Korea Rescue Team has been talking about it, and it seems inevitable that some conflicts will arise.”

“What do you mean? What are they saying?”

Qi Hancai reorganized his thoughts, “They say this is their country and thanked us for reclaiming their land, mentioning something about compensation in the future.”

Wu Heng realized, “So, they're saying we're reclaiming land for them.”

“Exactly, and they mentioned that your Superpower originates from a Divine Spirit of Korea, claiming that you have Korean heritage, and asked you to go there…”

“My goodness, they're not even sparing me.”

Wu Heng's abilities were from his profession, not some Superpower.

And still, they're dragging this into it.

Qi Hancai chuckled, seemingly expecting his reaction.

Wu Heng said, “Don't bother with their land issues. Once the remaining territory is reclaimed, we'll just incorporate them.”

Korean land is small, not like our own vast territory.

Once the skeletons finish cleaning the entire country, that main rescue team will find themselves surrounded.

Their only option would be to join us; there's no second path.

That's probably why they're anxious.

“Alright, I understand, but we still need to appear friendly on the surface. Many skeletons are still there learning about satellites,” said Qi Hancai.

Wu Heng also nodded, “You handle it. Tomorrow I'll check out the location on the map. Whether the Zombie King is there or not doesn't matter; clearing the zombies comes first.”

“I'll come with you!”

“No need, the skeletons will drive the car. If anything happens, I'll notify you via radio.”

Qi Hancai pondered for a moment and then nodded, “Okay.”

The two of them talked in the meeting room for a while, then Qi Hancai took him on a tour of the base.

Afterward, Wu Heng returned to the dormitory to brief Hartel through the boundary door.

Then he went back to the Zombie World to wait for Qi Hancai.

The next day.

The Skeleton Army escorted trucks toward the location on the map.

The convoy left the main road, heading down side roads.

After all, with the Skeleton Army marching on foot, they couldn't let the trucks go too fast.

As dusk approached,

The convoy began to slow down, and ahead on the road, wandering zombies could be seen.

Wu Heng said to the skeleton at the driver's seat, “You stay in the truck.”

The skeleton did not move. Wu Heng also hopped off the truck, leading the Skeleton Army slowly closer.

Meanwhile, to the Ghost beside him, he said, “You go ahead and check it out, see if the Zombie King is around.”

“Alright.”

“Yes, Uncle.”

Three Ghosts immediately nodded and rushed forward.

Seterde Fortress.

Footsteps echoed.

Geoffrey, the accompanying Commander of Lundham City, strode into the Commander Mansion.

Behind him, several skeletons followed, carrying three bodies, and escorting two seriously injured personnel.

Hartel frowned and asked, “What happened?”

“Steward Hartel, we caught them outside the city, people trying to gather intelligence,” Geoffrey promptly replied.

Hartel raised his eyebrows, “From the Yeko Kingdom?”

“Can't be certain, they're tight-lipped and don't carry anything that could identify them,” said Geoffrey.

Hartel walked over, glanced at the individuals, and pushed up his glasses, “Call over the accompanying Skeleton Mage.”

Before long, the Skeleton Mage from Lundham City entered the hall.

Hartel said, “I need you to perform Communicate with the dead.”

The spell “Communicate with the dead” was cast.

A corpse sat up.

“Who are you?”

“We are soldiers from the Yeko Kingdom,” the corpse replied.

Meanwhile, the two injured employees stared with wide eyes.
