“Let's go, back to base. Xiao Xiao, it's been a while since you saw your mom, right?” Wu Heng opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
Big Head Skull and two skeleton attendants also followed, sitting in the rear of the car.
Xiao Xiao fly through the door, and said, “Yes, I've missed her.”
“We'll be able to go back soon,” Wu Heng continued, “Have they loaded the Zombie King yet?”
Xiao Xiao flew to the back of the truck, glanced at the truck bed, then flew back and said, “All loaded.”
“Let's drive, back to the port base.”
The skeletons drove the truck, escorted by the Skeleton Army, back to base.
The journey back wasn't long.
As they entered the gates of the base, dusk was approaching.
The truck stopped, and Qi Hancai came over with a few base administrators to meet them.
“Leader,” Qi Hancai saluted first.
The others saluted as well.
Wu Heng nodded, “No need for formalities, everyone go about your business. Qi Hancai, come with me.”
The crowd dispersed, leaving Qi Hancai.
Wu Heng led her to the back of the truck bed, lifted the tarp, and a pungent stench hit them.
In the dark, a giant beast, tightly bound, could be seen restrained in the truck.
It was as if a fierce beast was hiding in the darkness, its terrifying, fierce eyes also looking back.
Tap tap tap!
Qi Hancai's face dramatically changed, and she stepped backward.
The Zombie King…
“It's not like you haven't seen it before,” Wu Heng remarked.
Qi Hancai quickly hid behind him, whispering, “Why bring the Zombie King into the base? Just kill it outside.”
“I need a place for now, not too far from the base, to keep the Zombie King and monitor its condition,” Wu Heng explained.
Monitoring the Zombie King?
Qi Hancai frowned, recalling something about zombie research mentioned by the main station.
But that research was on ordinary zombies.
No one brought back Zombie Kings for research.
She took a deep breath and asked no further.
Wu Heng always had a clear purpose with his actions, and it was just about arranging a place to ensure the Zombie King couldn't escape.
How the research was conducted was up to them.
Thinking quickly about where to imprison the Zombie King, she then said, “I know of a basement outside the base, quite sturdy. It could be used to contain the Zombie King.”
Outside the base.
By Wu Heng's standards, it wasn't that complicated.
Just find any room, have a skeleton guard the Zombie King, feed it corpse cores daily to evolve.
But for Qi Hancai and others, it was indeed a mental burden.
Also, if the Zombie King reached Level 20, predicting any new abilities it might develop was difficult.
Keeping it outside was safer.
“Is it far?”
“Not far, just behind the base in a building we discovered while scavenging,” Qi Hancai replied.
“Let's go have a look.”
“Drive there.”
Qi Hancai got into the driver's seat, and together with Wu Heng, they left the base.
They didn't go far before stopping at a building, which appeared to be a hotel.
Walking down towards the building, they saw the mentioned basement.
About thirty square meters, iron door, with concrete walls covered in tiles.
It looked like a private vault.
“Will this do? It was open when we found it,” Qi Hancai asked.
Wu Heng stepped inside, glanced around; there were ventilation ducts on top to prevent suffocation.
The walls indeed were sturdy, certainly better than just any room.
“Quite good,” Wu Heng nodded, then addressed a skeleton beside him, “Bring the Zombie King in.”
The skeletons dragged the bound Zombie King into the room.
“Feed it six corpse cores daily, and keep a close watch,” Wu Heng instructed, then left the room.
Clatter!
A mass of skeletons squeezed in, forming a circle, their empty eye sockets once again staring at the Zombie King.
Once the skeletons responsible for guarding entered, Wu Heng locked the door again.
“Let's go, let's head back,” Wu Heng said.
Qi Hancai hooked his arm, “Is this Zombie King the one mentioned by the Korea station?”
“Yes, they had two, one died, this one brought back for research,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
“These guys didn't specify there were two,” Qi Hancai complained.
“`
…
Returned to the base.
Wu Heng sat in the conference room and listened to the rest of the people at the base report their progress.
The construction of the base and the repair of facilities, and the training of skeletons by several experts.
Now, there were quite a few professional skeletons, and once the cities under Lundham City's control stabilized, some could be arranged to go there.
After everyone else had reported, they saluted and left the conference room.
Wu Heng and Qi Hancai were left alone.
Qi Hancai said, “Yahong said that the main station had settled all the owed rewards, the military factory is operating normally, and five hundred machine cannons have been produced.”
The rewards owed by the main station were agreed upon last time when they helped kill ghosts.
Five armored vehicles, and seven third-level corpse cores.
It seems they had paid everything gradually.
Qi Hancai asked curiously, “What rewards? Why didn't I know about it?”
“Last time, a group of people from the main station were trapped by ghosts, they asked for my help, and agreed to the rewards,” explained Wu Heng.
“Oh, no wonder.”
Wu Heng continued, “Oh, and tell Li Yahong to ask Lv Chang'an, that's the commander who coordinates with us from the main station, if he has any books on talismans. Just say I want to take a look.”
“Okay, I'll tell Li Yahong later,” Qi Hancai noted in his notebook.
Then, as if remembering something, Qi Hancai said, “There's another thing. During the last food trade with Korea Main Station, someone from their side was inquiring about your information from our base people.”
“Who were they asking?”
“We have quite a few Koreans here in our base, they asked them, but no one is foolish. We have food and drink here, and they came back and told me,” explained Qi Hancai.
They need to exchange food from here, the main station clearly isn't doing so well.
Autumn was approaching, and if the food didn't meet the supply requirements, many people at various bases would likely starve to death.
Wu Heng then asked, “What information did they ask about?”
“Appearance, behavior, where the person is, and they even wanted your photo,” said Qi Hancai.
Wu Heng's frown deepened.
It wasn't strange that they were interested in him.
To outsiders, his superpower was simply too bizarre.
The current scale of the Skeleton Army was enough to destroy any base of any power, and it was still continuously growing.
It was normal to casually inquire about him, but asking where he is and needing a photo.
It was obviously not just simple curiosity.
“Do we know their purpose?”
Qi Hancai shook his head, “Not yet.”
This Korea Rescue Team has been quite restless recently.
First, they claimed this was their country, asking for the territories occupied by the Skeletons to be returned to them, then they sought cooperation with me, provided the location of the Zombie King, and inquired about my appearance and whereabouts.
What exactly are they planning?
Thinking quickly, he said, “Find some excuse and talk to them again, I'll come along this time.”
Qi Hancai looked puzzled, “Are you really going to show yourself? I feel there's something off.”
“I have nothing to discuss with them, just want to see what they're up to,” Wu Heng stated.
“Alright, I'll get in touch with them after going back, and try to meet within the next couple of days,” Qi Hancai agreed, then hesitated and asked, “Staying over tonight?”
“Let's go to your room when the time comes.”
Qi Hancai also smiled, “Okay.”
The two went out to eat dinner at the cafeteria and then returned to their dormitory together.
Wu Heng sat on the bed, casually flipping through the books on Magical Scrolls, while Qi Hancai came out of the bathroom.
“You read; I won't disturb you,” Qi Hancai said with a smile.
Laying the bathrobe on the floor, kneeling by the bed, he tenderly kissed Wu Heng's abdomen.
Wu Heng touched the other person's head and continued reading the book in his hand.
The next day, Gold and Silver Island.
The island saw an increase in Skeleton patrols.
And the port area became even busier, with many wealthy individuals arriving on the island with their families.
Looking at the clean streets, rows of streetlights, and the colorful advertisements hanging from the lights.
Their eyes widened.
“This is Gold and Silver Island!”
“Those poles are streetlights; they light up at night, the whole city never sees darkness.”
“Really?”
“Of course it's true.”
Men whispered proudly to some women.
Central District.
Andre Willow, accompanied by the Skeleton Guard, walked directly into Snake Badge Consortium.
The local manager came forward to meet them.
“Miss Andre Willow, what brings you here?”
