The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 955

Chapter 955: Chapter 764, Want to Learn? Chapter 955: Chapter 764, Want to Learn? Pfft!

Xi Ligui spat out her cold tea and hastily wiped the table, annoyed, “What are you talking about?”

“There are plenty of circulating stories about this leader's romantic escapades, keeping many male pets in the castle, taking them out for walks in the courtyard, just like walking a dog,” Shi Yali whispered into her ear.

Xi Ligui furrowed her brows, and the image of Wu Heng wearing a collar appeared in her mind.

“You believe those too? What leader doesn't have such rumors around them?”

Shi Yali wrapped an arm around her shoulder, “Then, shall we go check it out tonight and pay a visit to Leader Lilith again?”

“Isn't that a bit too deliberate?”

“Silly sister, what if the man gets snatched away?”

Xi Ligui took a deep breath, “Okay, let's go take a look tonight.”

“Um.” Shi Yali also showed a smile.

…

Two and a half hours later.

The first movie ended.

Lilith's brows were deeply furrowed, still not recovered from the plot she had just watched.

After a while, she asked, “How was this produced?”

“A Mechanical device called a camera. Leader, did you think the story was alright?” Wu Heng looked at her and asked with a smile.

“Not bad, it's quite novel. It should be popular on the island as well!” Lilith raised her tea to her lips and took a delicate sip.

If not for her outward appearance still being that of a little girl, her body language resembled that of a noblewoman enjoying afternoon tea.

“Not bad, there's always a long queue in front of the cinema every day, waiting to watch movies. Of course, those who go the most are couples in love,” Wu Heng said with a smile.

“Love, which one here is your wife? You haven't introduced her!” Lilith asked again.

Er…

“I don't have a wife yet. All of them came with me from humble beginnings and are family,” Wu Heng said with a smile.

Lilith glanced to the side.

The catgirl dressed as a maid was wagging her tail as vigorously as a rattle drum.

After withdrawing her gaze, she continued, “What type do you like? I can introduce you to someone suitable for your status; it's also good to have a reliable support.”

“Let nature take its course. I'll talk about it when I become a hero.”

Lilith raised an eyebrow, “How? You're so confident about becoming a hero?”

Wu Heng leaned to one side, “I'm a Necromancer. If not, I'll become a Corpse Ghost. Being undead, I'll make it eventually.”

Lilith rolled her eyes at him, “I thought you were confident about advancing in your lifetime.”

Knock, knock!

The door was knocked, and Mini walked in holding a brocade box, which she handed over.

Wu Heng took it and placed it on the table between him and Lilith, opening the lid to reveal a beautifully crafted potion, “This is a Strengthening Potion we've developed. I hope the leader will accept it.”

The Potion Bottle was redesigned, looking like a faceted crystal.

It looked more exquisite than a standard Potion Bottle.

This was also a suggestion from Shanaela; having already sold at sky-high prices, it naturally needed a matching appearance.

Lilith looked at the potion, “Is this the Strengthening Potion you mentioned? How is the mass production?”

“Very limited, averaging four to five bottles every five months, if everything goes smoothly.”

Lilith nodded, “I'll take the item. I won't bid on it tomorrow.”

Wu Heng said, “This potion is a token of my gratitude for your care over the years and has nothing to do with the auction. You can bid as you like at the auction, even buy everything. I could earn a bit more.”

“Oh? You're increasingly pleasing me,” Lilith said, a smile appearing on her usually cold face.

If she wasn't so young now, she would certainly be very pretty.

The potion was taken.

Mini then brought in some snacks and pastries.

Wu Heng continued, “Leader!”

“Yes!”

“Is that technique to silence people a skill?” Wu Heng asked curiously.

“Why, do you want to learn? It's not suited for the Necromancy Sect,” Lilith said indifferently, popping some nuts into her mouth.

“I might not be able to learn it, but it'll broaden my horizons. It feels quite cool,” Wu Heng said, then tentatively asked, “Could you lend me the Skill Book to take a look?”

Lilith did not respond directly, instead counterasking, “What else do you want to see?”

“If there are any high-level Necromancy Skill Books or methods to enhance Ghosts, I'd like to see those,” Wu Heng stated directly.

Lilith was silent for a moment before continuing, “I'll check for you when I get back.”

“Thank you, Leader. There's a second movie. Shall we continue watching?”

“What is the second part?”

“Just like a novel, divided into volumes,” Wu Heng explained.

“Play it. It's good to finish it together, then we can head back to the association,” Lilith responded.

Compared to when she first arrived, she was obviously much more talkative.

“Wouldn't you like to stay for dinner? I had the maid prepare it.”

“No need.”

The room dimmed again.

The movie played once more.

…

Near dusk.

Xi Ligui and Shi Yali were leaving the association.

As they walked, they discussed how to compete with this female leader for the man.

Just as they reached the gate, they saw a carriage slowly stopping, and Wu Heng, along with a girl in a purple dress, stepped down.

You're back?

Was just preparing to visit, weren't you?

“Lilith Leader.” The two of them immediately went up to greet her.

“Hmm, is the room ready?”

“It's ready, I'll take you there.” Xi Ligui led the way, and as they walked, she mentioned, “At the dormitory, there are a few elders from the headquarters.”

“It's fine, and don't tell them about my visit.”

“Understood, the room has air conditioning and electric lights. Let me know if you need anything else added, and I'll arrange for it…”

Their figures gradually receded into the distance.

Wu Heng also turned around and headed towards the auction house.

The venue was located at Shanaela's opera house.

The place was large, and the facilities were quite sophisticated.

Upon entering, several Wood Elves came out directly, “Lord Island Master.”

“Is the venue ready?” Wu Heng asked.

“Everything is ready, we can start tomorrow as per schedule,” the Wood Elf replied calmly.

Wu Heng continued, “This time we have a lot of high-level professionals coming, make sure the attendants are careful not to stir up trouble.”

“Understood,” the Wood Elf nodded in response.

“Prepare a VIP room, it will be useful tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

“Go on, I have nothing else,” Wu Heng said.

The Wood Elf nodded, went to prepare the VIP room, and briefed their subordinates on the tasks again.

At this moment, footsteps could be heard.

Xi Ligui and Shi Yali also came back from outside.

“Did you arrange the room?” Wu Heng asked.

Xi Ligui looked at him and said, “I thought for a moment she would stay with you.”

“What are you thinking, how could a woman stay at my place?”

Shi Yali whispered, “They say she likes male pets; I thought you bowed to power.”

“I'll go tell Lilith.”

Shi Yali's face changed, and she grasped his arm tightly, “Are you crazy, she would kill me!”

“Is that so?”

“It is! Okay, enough!” Shi Yali said softly.

Wu Heng then said, “The Holy Court came to my place, mocked me to my face, but the Lilith Leader beat them up.”

“What happened?”

Wu Heng recounted the situation.

Both women raised their eyebrows, “That's really satisfying.”

“They were unlucky to mock Lilith without recognizing her,” Wu Heng said with a laugh.

Shi Yali added, “Now they can't speak, and since the Lilith Leader won't return for a while, let's see how they manage to eat or drink.”

“They won't starve to death, will they?”

“Shouldn't be the case with high-level professionals.”

Wu Heng said, “Keep an eye on them, and if they die, see where the bodies are buried.”

“Not even sparing the bodies,” one joked.

Wu Heng smiled and said, “Come on, let's go eat at my place; I've had a lavish meal prepared today, let's chat while we eat.”

The three of them walked outside together.

“Actually, we were also planning to visit you today.”

In the room of the Holy Court.

A group of priests chanted devoutly as the Holy Light slowly descended upon the two in front.

After the Holy Light passed, they immediately felt their mouths and eyes, but there was no effect.

The Bishop immediately got up and started flipping through books quickly.

Eventually, his expression sighed in defeat.

In the stocky man's palm was written, “Wait for the leader to return, or wait for her to calm down to lift the effect.”

Bang!

The stocky man punched the ground, and the stone slabs cracked.

At night.

A girl in a purple skirt returned to her room from outside.

To be honest, she liked it here.

The night remained bright, and there was none of the annoying sun.

Even the tumultuous crowds around, including street brawlers, were more interesting than at the headquarters.

From Lighthouse Street, she returned to the Central District.

When the sky turned dark, and there were hardly any people outside, except for numerous patrolling Skeletons on the streets,

Only then did she return to the dormitory with her attendant.

Upon entering the room, she took a wooden coffin out of her Space Ring, ready to lie down for rest.

Just as she was about to close the coffin lid, her gaze directed towards one side of the room.

Calmly she spoke, “Are you Wu Heng's Ghost?”

A small head peeked out, curiously asking, “Sister, were you the one who chased away those bad people today?”
