Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse

"What are you talking about? Stay away from the window, don't let the zombies below find you."

A woman's nagging voice came from behind.

"Really, there are so many souls in the direction of the explosion just now. It must be the monks who are saving the zombies over there. They won't suffer anymore." The girl still looked out the window.

The middle-aged woman behind her, who was also sloppy, followed her gaze and looked into the distance.

The empty sky.

There are no souls.

Occasionally, one or two bone dragons can be seen hovering in the sky in the distance.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's scary."

"Mom, was it this kind of bone flying dragon that brought us food last time?" The daughter asked again while looking into the distance.

The mother pulled most of the curtains tightly, leaving only a gap to see the scene outside.

"It looks very similar. I also hid in the distance and took a look at it, but I'm not sure if it's that kind of flying dragon."

The daughter tilted her head and thought, "Could it be someone from Xinfu City, killing zombies over there and then saving the souls of the dead?"

"How is that possible? Killing zombies is not that simple. The rescue team can't get in, let alone this kind of civilian base."

"But, they are the only ones who send us food. What you said is just slogans shouted every day on the radio." The daughter retorted.

"They will come to rescue us. The radio said that they are organizing troops."

The daughter thought again, "I think we should go out and take a look. Those zombies were led away by the battle in the distance. They should be safe."

"If we go downstairs and encounter zombies, we can't come back. Then we can't just take two cold medicines." The mother said.

"But."

"Let's talk about it later. We still have to be careful."

As the mother and daughter were talking, a harsh electric current came from the radio behind them, followed by intermittent and weak voices.

"This is the Xinfu City rescue team. We have arrived at Tiebei Commercial Street and have cleared the zombies around. Survivors nearby can approach us. When you come, you will meet skeletons. They are our soldiers. Please do not attack or provoke us to avoid unnecessary casualties."

The mother and daughter turned around suddenly.

There was a look of surprise in their eyes.

It is really the Xinfu City base. They really came to the city to rescue people.

…

The main road of the commercial street.

The battle between the skeletons and zombies has ended.

The ghosts wandering in the sky were also chased and devoured by Xiaoxiao and Granda one by one.

Wait until the last ghost is absorbed.

[Ghost level increased to level 15, physical fitness +2, intelligence +3.]

[Ghost unlocked feature: supernatural phenomenon. ]

Granda was upgraded to level 15.

In terms of level, it reached the third level.

Wu Heng opened the ghost panel and took a look at the newly appeared feature [supernatural phenomenon].

[Paranormal Phenomenon]: Where ghosts linger, they can "actively" affect the five senses of the surrounding creatures, making them feel strange noises, coldness seeping into the hall where the fire is burning, the stench of corpses filling the neat room, or corpses crawling out of the cemetery. Ghosts can control the type according to the corresponding scene.

Wu Heng looked at the new features and frowned slightly.

From the introduction, it is more like an improvement of ghost fantasy.

Affecting the senses of living beings, whether it is strange noises, or coldness seeping into the hall where the fire is burning, or the stench of corpses filling the neat room.

They are all the influence of hearing, vision, and smell.

It can't be said to be useless.

It feels mainly to scare people.

Professionals in the other world are very sensitive to changes in the surroundings. Once such a thing happens, it will make the other party alert.

The effect is not too great.

It's okay to scare ordinary people, but it seems to be useless.

Let's see where it can be used in the future.

"Uncle, there are none left." Xiao Xiao flew down.

After this upgrade.

Xiao Xiao also reached level 13.

The level gap between the two ghosts was quite large before, but now it is gradually narrowing.

"Wait until next time, you also need to take a break." Wu Heng said.

"Oh." Xiao Xiao said, then leaned on his shoulder, "Uncle, did you see me killing people just now? I wasn't so powerful when I was in kindergarten."

"What kind of kindergarten are you in?"

"No, I just played with the kids." Xiao Xiao floated to the other side again, "I'm really powerful today."

Grenda also said, "Xiao Xiao is very powerful today."

"Hehe." Xiao Xiao smiled.

As he spoke, the skeleton dragged various corpses over.

The evolved zombies and the deformed zombies were lined up in front of him one by one.

Wu Heng transformed them one by one, and then collected the fallen corpse cores.

After the evolved zombies and the deformed zombies were transformed, he continued to release the [Dead Corpse Battlefield] along the way, transforming all the corpses into skeletons.

It filled the entire street, as if it was densely packed with no end.

"Qi Hancai, let the team come over and search the surrounding shops." Wu Heng pressed the intercom.

"Got it!"

The convoy behind started to move, and drove along the road that the skeleton team had cleared.

After stopping at one side, a large number of survivors got off the car and began to search the shops along the way.

Take away the important items in advance.

The survivors began to get busy.

Qi Hancai came over from the back of the convoy and said, "There are 13 survivors, all from nearby shelters. The food we sent to them last time was useful. When they heard that it was our convoy, they all came over."

Wu Heng turned his head and looked at the back of the convoy.

A lot of people gathered at the rear car.

Both men and women, looking sloppy like wild people from the wilderness, lined up to receive some bread and fresh water brought by the convoy.

Wu Heng seemed to have a feeling and looked at the middle of the line.

A little girl in her teens was looking straight at him.

From time to time, she looked up at the sky and her shoulders.

There was confusion and puzzlement in her eyes.

"These people lived here before, and their families should be good." Qi Hancai spoke again on the side.

Wu Heng turned his head and looked over. "Well, count the ages and occupations, and assign jobs when we return. If there are any special abilities, write them down separately."

"I understand. I have asked someone to register them."

"That's good."

After standing by the road for a while, the survivors moved various items onto the truck.

When everything was almost ready, the convoy began to turn around and headed towards the military factory.

...

On the way back, on the truck.

Wu Heng took a sip of water and asked, "How is Wang Haibing doing recently?"

"He has been training the skeletons recently. He seems to be very serious. He is on time every day, just like going to work."

Wang Haibing's current task is to manage the power plant of the military factory and train the skeletons assigned to him.

When the power plants in other places are built later, these skeletons will also be arranged.

To maintain the operation of power plants in various places.

Wu Heng thought for a while and said, "Let him select a few skeletons who have learned well tomorrow, and I will take them away then."

"Okay, I'll tell him when I get back." Qi Hancai replied without looking away.

It was already dark.

The convoy turned on the headlights, illuminating the surroundings.

Wu Heng continued to ask: "Did the headquarters contact you again?"

"Yes, they asked about your consideration. I told them that we would not consider either agreement, and the exchange of materials between the two sides could still continue. They said something about it being for everyone's good, and since we were determined not to agree, they just let it go."

"Well, apart from the transaction between the two sides, other things are of no help to us." Wu Heng said.

"I know." Qi Hancai said with a smile.

The convoy returned to the factory.

Qi Hancai got off the car to arrange housing for the newly joined survivors, and Wu Heng also returned to his dormitory.

Open the boundary gate and return to Treasure Island.

...

Come down from upstairs.

The hall was dark.

It was already dark here, and the maids returned to their rooms to rest.

Wu Heng arranged the electrician skeleton he brought back to the courtyard first.

He also asked the skeleton chef to prepare some dinner and ate in the restaurant.

Tap tap tap~!

Footsteps sounded.

Anderweier came down from upstairs with a pistol in hand.

Seeing Wu Heng eating at the dining table, she smiled, "Master, you're eating so late."

"Well, do you want to eat together?"

"No, if I get fat, you won't like me."

Wu Heng touched the soft fox tail, "Our Wei'er is cute even if she's a little fat."

Anderweier blushed slightly, "No way, there's so much competition now, I have to keep myself in shape."

"What competition?"

"You don't understand."

Wu Heng continued to ask, "How is the city hall doing recently?"

"Everything is good. The number of patrol guards has been increased. The tax adjustment that was discussed before has also been finalized recently. I'll show it to you in the next two days." Anderweier said.

Wu Heng nodded and asked, "I said before that the energy plant is going well?"

Andvier thought for a moment and said, "I heard that it's going well, but I haven't asked about the specific progress yet."

"Let the dwarf designer come over tomorrow and I'll talk to him."

"Okay, then tomorrow morning, I'll let him come?"

"Okay."

The two chatted for a while, and Wu Heng finished the steak on the plate.

He wiped his mouth, stood up and said, "Weier, do you want to come together tonight?"

Andvier's eyes curved into crescents, "Okay, I'm a little afraid of the dark today."

"Come, I'll hug you to sleep tonight."

"Okay!"

...

In the early morning, Wu Heng yawned and went downstairs.

After having breakfast together, Andvier went to the city hall, and Wu Heng was pulled to the courtyard by the other three maids.

Look at the garden they renovated in the past two days.

The original flowers and plants were all replaced with fruit trees.

The garden was turned into a fruit forest.

It is said that you can grow fruit yourself in the future.

Knock, knock, knock~!

Just as the three of them were chattering about the benefits of planting fruit trees, the gate of the courtyard was knocked hard.

Minnie looked out the window and asked.

Then she ran back quickly and said, "Master, it's a representative from the Star Flower Chamber of Commerce. He came to discuss ordering goods with you."

Wu Heng was stunned.

Shanara had just told him about the matter of the wood elves, and the representative of the merchant group came so quickly.

Either the wood elves had already discussed and wanted to cooperate with me, or they also had a quick communication method, so they knew that they wanted to discuss cooperation with me.

"Let him go to the living room!" Wu Heng walked towards the living room.

Minnie walked to the gate again, took the other party through the courtyard full of skeletons and armored vehicles, and went to the hall.

In the living room.

The male wood elf in a black dress bowed slightly, "Star Flower, the representative of the merchant group 'Seamus', greets the island owner."

His manners were elegant, like an aristocrat attending a ball.

"Hello, sit down!" Wu Heng said.

The wood elf sat down on the side, and the cat woman brought tea.

After the maids left, the wood elf said softly, "Island owner, I came here to discuss cooperation with you this time."

"Well, I know about this. I do have a batch of goods that need to be ordered from Star Flower."

"That's great." The wood elf smiled immediately.

It seems that things are simpler than he thought.

"Did you bring the list of goods you ordered?" Wu Heng continued to ask.

"I brought it." The wood elf handed over the list of various goods respectfully.

Wu Heng looked through it, took out a pen and began to mark the goods he ordered.

First, food, then excellent armor and one-handed axes.

"Why are there no ships on it?"

"Normally, there are no ships on it. If you need to order, you need to apply separately. You are our important guest. As long as you apply, there should be no problem." The wood elf explained on the side.

Wu Heng handed him the order form and continued, "Order 10 of your warships."

"Okay!" The other party looked at the order form, and his face was full of joy.

Food 100,000, armor 50,000, and one-handed axes 50,000.

I'm afraid that the total amount of Treasure Island and coastal areas after the New Year is not as much as this time.

No wonder the tribe attaches so much importance to trading with the other party.

The wood elf immediately filled in the warships.

"My lord, after deducting the discount you enjoy, you still need to pay 53,520 gold coins. This is the agreement of the Star Flower." After the wood elf calculated, he said directly.

Wu Heng asked someone to count the gold coins, and he also signed the agreement.

Then he continued: "I am anxious about the food and warships, and I need you to deliver them as soon as possible."

"Sir, the quantity of your order is too large and needs to be prepared. A fleet cannot deliver it to you at one time."

"Then send it one by one, and send the warships first."

The wood elf thought about it and nodded: "That's no problem. I will arrange it for you and send the warships to you first."

"Go to the city hall and notify Andwier to inspect and accept it."

"Understood, sir island owner."

Then while waiting for the gold coins to be counted, Wu Heng chatted with the other party.

Asked about the business environment on the island and some opinions on the routes and port facilities.

The wood elf was obviously a little restrained, and all the answers were official words.

Wait for Minnie to count the gold coins.

The other party called in people from outside, and after confirmation, they collected them all.

Saluted again and left the island owner's manor directly.

...

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The dwarf designer came to the manor again.

With Minnie's guidance, they came to the hall.

Wu Heng waited for the other party to sit down and asked, "The expansion area should be almost done, right?"

"It has entered the final stage of construction. It will definitely be completed within this month and residents can move in."

Wu Heng was quite satisfied with the progress of the construction. The buildings in this world were not as exaggerated as those in modern times. Generally, ordinary residential houses were two-story.

The mansions of the rich and powerful were only three or four stories high.

It was not so exaggerated, and with the help of engineering vehicles, it was naturally faster.

"What's the progress of the energy plant and port I mentioned?"

The dwarf immediately replied, "The plant has been completed, and the port will be completed within this week."

"Well done, I'll let you know if there's anything that needs to be improved in the plant."

"Okay, sir."

Wu Heng thought for a while, then said, "In the next few days, I will choose a separate building behind the city hall for you as a design institute, and you will be the person in charge."

The dwarf's expression was instantly delighted, he jumped off the chair and saluted, "Thank you, sir, I will do a good job, and Treasure Island will be my second home in the future."

"Okay, just do a good job, go back first, I'll notify you later."

"Yes, sir." The dwarf saluted again and left the manor again.

He got on the carriage happily and left here.

...

In the afternoon, seeing that there was nothing to do.

Wu Heng said hello to Minnie and went directly to the zombie world.

He sat in his bedroom and waited for a while.

Qi Hancai came back from outside and introduced the situation at the factory.

Then he said, "Sister Yahong encountered some problems."

"What happened?"

"Some refugees said that the people we recruited robbed and killed people, and they were bandits in that area at that time. Our people denied this matter, saying that the other party had suffered losses in previous transactions and framed them. They argued in the channel for several days. Other refuges are also paying attention to this matter. If it is not handled properly, it may affect the prestige of our base."

In the case of doomsday, fierce and cruel people are often more likely to survive.

Like Yang Yitian and Chen Jinlong before, they are such people.

If you are strong, ruthless enough, and able to intimidate your younger brother, you can condense into a small force.

Bullying survivors is much easier than fighting zombies.

Everyone knows that the most important thing is to survive at the end of the day.

However, neither the rescue team base nor some large bases will recruit these people to join.

At best, just ignore these things.

Wu Heng also didn't expect that someone would report such a criminal among his own.

"What problems are you facing?"

"I'm not sure which of the two is telling the truth, and there are no other shelters or bases that can prove it. It's actually quite annoying to say some sarcastic remarks." Qi Hancai said.

"What type of sarcastic remarks?" Wu Heng asked again.

"That's why you are protecting your own people. When a big force develops, who doesn't have some blood on their hands?"

Wu Heng was stunned, "Somewhat like me before."

"Give me a break."

Wu Heng thought for a moment and said: "I have a way, I will teach you, and then you will teach Li Yahong."

"any solution?"

Wu Heng placed a clay sculpture on the table, "Look into its eyes, don't resist, and don't look away."

Qi Hancai looked at the kneeling clay sculpture and frowned, "It's a bit scary."

But he still followed his words and met the eyes of the clay sculpture.

Wu Heng asked: "What do you think of the current base?"

Qi Hancai said: "The base is developing very well. As long as it continues to develop steadily, sooner or later it will surpass the main station and become the largest and most prestigious refuge."

After speaking, Qi Hancai's eyes widened a bit, as if he was a little surprised by his answer.

Wu Heng then asked: "Why do you want to follow me?"

Qi Hancai's face turned red.

But he said unconsciously, "You are good-looking and have more potential. You are the best candidate now. When I joined, I hinted to you more than once, and finally discussed the last plan with Li Yahong. "

Wu Heng saw that her face looked congested with blood, so he covered the eyes of the clay sculpture with a handkerchief.

His mouth immediately closed tightly.

He stretched out his hand to signal her to wait for a while until the side effects disappeared.

Cai said: "The function is to make people who look directly tell the truth."

"So magical? What's the principle?"

"Ancient relics, don't ask so many questions, just use it." Wu Heng continued: "The side effect is that after asking the questions, you are temporarily unable to speak. You can't speak for two minutes for two questions. The more you ask, the longer you can't speak. long."

"A lie detector."

"That's understandable." Wu Heng nodded.

"Okay, I'll personally send someone over tomorrow to deliver it to Li Yahong."

"Can."

Qi Hancai said coyly: "What I told you just now is not allowed to be told outside, not even by Li Yahong."

"Okay, our secret."

"Um."

After saying this, Qi Hancai thought for a moment and then said: "By the way, today the provincial channel is occupied by the provincial rescue team, which is attacking the urban area."

"Why did you suddenly think of attacking?"

"Maybe we have put pressure on them. We continue to enter the city to clean up zombies and rescue survivors. It is not good that they have not taken any action." Qi Hancai analyzed.

"Yes, this is a good thing for the survivors."

"This should have been done a long time ago. The longer you drag the zombies, the stronger your ability will be."

…

Jiuhua Street.

The roaring sound echoed through the entire street.

Then, grenades rained down.

In an instant, flames shot into the sky, and the huge explosion was deafening.

The building shook violently, and hordes of zombies were torn apart, with pieces of flesh and limbs flying around.

The group of corpses screamed loudly and quickly looked around to see an armored convoy coming from a distance.

It instantly formed a torrent, roaring and charging forward.

Boom boom~ bang bang bang~!

The machine guns exploded, and machine gun bullets intertwined into a huge net.

The rushing zombies fell down in pieces like wheat, piling up into a large mountain of corpses.

"Machine gunner, pay attention to changing bullets."

"Armored vehicle, clean up the distorted zombies ahead."

"Stay steady, we have made sufficient preparations, and victory belongs to us."

Orders were issued from the walkie-talkie.

Everyone continued to pour out ammunition quickly.

suddenly.

The group of corpses rushing forward suddenly stopped.

They scattered in all directions and hid behind the buildings on both sides. The entire street was instantly empty, with only the corpses left behind covering the ground.

Everyone's eyes widened, a little at a loss.

What's going on?

Tens of thousands of zombies actually dispersed and hid at the same time.

what happened?
