The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 953

Chapter 953: Chapter 762, Looking for Trouble Chapter 953: Chapter 762, Looking for Trouble The two paused in their steps.

The association was waiting for someone?

It couldn't be waiting for them, could it?

The girl glanced around and whispered, “Let's go this way.”

“Miss, aren't we going to the association?”

“Let's check out the cinema first, we can head there when it gets dark,” the girl said.

The two turned around, intending to leave.

Across from them, an elf girl from the association's squad, along with the members, quickly approached.

Indeed, they were coming for her.

“Leader Lilith, the carriage is ready,”

The lead elf bowed respectfully.

The association members behind her also immediately bowed.

Whispers spread around.

The surrounding crowd instantly turned their attentions their way.

Although the word “leader” might not have been heard clearly, the fact that the steward took the lead in bowing also proved that the identities of the old and young were extraordinary.

“Whose little girl is this?”

“She must be some princess here for the auction.”

“She must be from the headquarters, or else the steward wouldn't come to meet her.”

“Definitely someone of no ordinary status.”

The area buzzed with noise.

Slowly, a circle formed around them, with people discussing animatedly.

Now it was impossible for Lilith to go out for a stroll.

With an expressionless face, she asked the few in front of her, “Just you?”

“Island Lord Wu Heng is in the carriage. If he gets off, it will attract even more onlookers, please excuse him,” Xi Ligui spoke again.

With the situation as it was and so many onlookers, there was no way to proceed with the planned activities.

“Let's go, lead the way,” Lilith said.

“This way, please.”

They walked together to the carriage.

Xi Ligui opened the carriage door for her, “Leader, please.”

Lilith got into the second carriage and said, “Have Wu Heng come over.”

Xi Ligui nodded and quickly went to the first carriage, speaking to Wu Heng. Wu Heng, wearing a hood, walked over, the carriage door opened, revealing the girl Lilith.

“Leader Lilith.”

“Come in, I have some things to ask you.”

Wu Heng got into the carriage.

Xi Ligui then asked, “To the association?”

Lilith didn't speak, but Wu Heng said, “Let's go to the Island Lord's Mansion first, I will treat Leader Lilith to a meal.”

Lilith still didn't speak.

Xi Ligui returned to his own carriage and slowly moved forward.

In the dim carriage.

Lilith sat on one side, Wu Heng across from her.

The accompanying elderly servant stayed outside with the coachman, seemingly not worried at all about Lilith's safety.

Wu Heng surveyed the other party, while Lilith also carefully observed him, and for a moment, their eyes met.

Then both looked away.

“Before the leader came, why didn't you say a word in advance, so I could have welcomed you at the port?” Wu Heng broke the silence first.

“The intelligence work on the island isn't bad. I just arrived on the island today, and you already discovered me,” Lilith said.

Apparently, he didn't notice Glenda.

That is, a Level 20 ghost could remain undetected by professionals of the same level if kept at a good distance.

“I also felt you would come, so I had my men pay special attention,” Wu Heng said with a smile.

“That medicine, did you come up with that too?”

“It's my idea, realized by an alchemist. It's not solely my work.”

“People at the expo think highly of you.”

“Helping more people is also the mission of the association.”

Midway, the carriage stopped at the Association.

Xi Ligui and the squad members went back to the association.

Wu Heng's carriage continued on, heading to the Island Lord's Mansion.

Entering the Island Lord's Mansion.

Lilith looked around with great interest at the skeletons holding guns, her eyes devoid of fear towards Necromancy; only intense curiosity was present.

As they entered the living room, Wu Heng invited her to sit down.

The maids immediately brought over brewed tea and an assortment of pastries.

Then they stood neatly on one side.

Their expressions were filled with confusion and surprise.

This young girl is the esteemed guest the master spoke of?

Could she be a princess from some household?

Lilith sat on the sofa and said, “The island is managed quite well; it's apparent that you have some talent in this area.”

“It's all thanks to everyone's hard work; I, as the Island Lord, haven't done much.”

“Ah, modesty, that's also a fine virtue,” Lilith nodded in approval.

Wu Heng continued, “Where did all the leaders on the island go? I'll see if there's anywhere you haven't visited yet and can take you there.”

“There's not much on the island, I've only missed the cinema,” Lilith pondered and responded.

Wu Heng said, “That place isn't suitable for you to visit; it's crowded and somewhat chaotic. The Island Lord's Mansion has a home theater, which provides a better viewing experience, I'll have the maids prepare it shortly.”

“As per the arrangement of the Island Lord.”

Thump thump thump~!

While they were chatting, someone knocked on the courtyard gate.

Mini went to check the door, and quickly ran back, “Master, Bishop 'Dirk Gavin' from The Holy Court has arrived, saying there's an important matter to discuss with you.”

Wu Heng frowned.

A Bishop from The Holy Court!

Lilith also cast a puzzled look from the side.

Wu Heng glanced at her, “Leader, what do you think…”

“It's fine, go ahead with your discussion, I'll just sit over here,” Lilith said, taking a seat by the nearby tea table.

Robey diligently brought over the tea and pastries, softly explaining each flavor.

Wu Heng didn't know what to say and just told Mini, “Bring them in.”

Soon, footsteps were heard, and Mini led two figures into the room.

The one in the lead was the local Bishop Dirk Gavin from The Holy Court, followed by a burly man nearly two meters tall, with a robust physique.

Compared to Mini leading the way, he looked like a giant moving slowly.

As the two men walked in, the Skeleton guards on either side began to make a 'clatter clatter' sound.

It was like machinery receiving interference, in an unstable state.

Glenda flew back and burrowed into his body, the shared vision showed, two level 18 professionals.

Entering the hall,

The Bishop and the two men glanced around the room.

Their gaze swept past Robey and Lilith together, moved on swiftly, and then fixed on Wu Heng.

“Lord Island Master.”

“Bishop… please take a seat.”

The two sat opposite.

Wu Heng asked, “What brings you two here?”

“It's about the island's garrison orders; our situation at The Holy Court is peculiar, and we hope the Lord Island Master can make necessary adjustments accordingly,” the Bishop went straight to the point.

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, they brought another Level 18 on the day before the auction to discuss this matter.

Quite the timing.

“What specific circumstances does The Holy Court have? If it's truly special, adjustments can be considered,” Wu Heng said.

The Bishop smiled, “Due to The Holy Court's uniqueness and the deterrent effect on the Evil Cult and heretics, several situations pose dangers, requiring specific armament to ensure the safety of the priests.”

Wu Heng said, “Rest assured on that point; Gold and Silver Island is very safe.”

The other burly man, his eyes sharpening, coldly questioned, “With so many Necromancy on your island, far exceeding the number of pirates you've killed, where do they all come from? Always finding excuses to reduce our personnel, isn't there a problem with your island?”

Wu Heng frowned, they really came here to make trouble.

Given Lilith's presence, it wasn't suitable to make the scene too ugly, but he still said, “This island has been continuously reporting back to the headquarters, so there naturally isn't any problem with its origins.”

“Headquarters is so far away, who knows what you've done,” the burly man scoffed, then said, “I see issues with this island, today I'll start by searching your Island Lord's Mansion.”

Wu Heng's eyes narrowed, understanding the two men's intentions.

They were not here to negotiate but to assert dominance.

Two Level 18s, in their view, were sufficient to suppress the entire Mansion, especially since they were already inside the room.

His expression turned serious too, and he stared at them, half-smiling, “What do you do?”

“You don't need to know who I am!”

Wu Heng's gaze turned to the Bishop, “Bishop, did you bring a bandit to rob the mansion of the Flag-bearer of my association?”

The Bishop remained silent.

The burly man spoke again, “You have two options, one is to lift the limits on personnel numbers, and the second is to explain the source of every single Skeleton on the island.”

“Can't explain,” Wu Heng shook his head.

Ha~!

Laughter came from the side.

The burly man's face contorted with anger as he suddenly turned to the side and yelled, “Little girl, are you laughing at us?”
