The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 693

Chapter 693: Chapter 561, Oh the imperial edict, roll it up again Chapter 693: Chapter 561, Oh the imperial edict, roll it up again Uh…

Wu Heng glanced at Xiao Xiao.

After thinking for a moment, he said, “It's the first day of release, and it's a novel thing; it certainly won't be accepted immediately, but things will get better later on.”

In this world, being literate can eliminate a bunch of people.

Among those remaining, hearing that some content written on paper sells for 65 copper coins, it's normal for them to be unable to accept it temporarily.

However, on Gold and Silver Island, aside from ordinary residents, there are quite a few merchant teams from various races and factions.

Spending a few dozen coppers to check out the information is not too big an expenditure.

“When do you plan to release the next issue? If you delay for too long, people might forget about it,” Glenda continued to ask.

“Three days. The city hall needs to gather the latest intelligence and news, and then, along with the novel, it will be released,” Wu Heng said.

“I will also revert the next chapter by that time; do you want to distribute more?” Glenda said.

“That's up to you; distributing more will mean more work.”

“No problem, we don't need to rest like you do, and we can help you get it done,” Glenda smiled.

“Good, thank you for your hard work.”

After having lunch at the Island Master's Manor,

Wu Heng opened the boundary door and proceeded to Zombie World.

Exiting the dormitory building,

He saw a large number of skeletons in the form of the Blood Clan, gathered around the dormitory building.

On the ground, rooftops, or circling in the air.

The survivors passing by were all somewhat cautious.

“All of you, follow me,” Wu Heng ordered, leading a large number of Blood Clan skeletons out towards the factory compound.

They arrived at the woods behind it.

He commanded the Blood Clan skeletons to land and stand by.

Wu Heng then took out another Blood Clan corpse from his Space Ring.

This corpse was that of the first exiled Blood Clan he had found.

The moment the stone coffin was opened, he had the surrounding skeletons fire upon it, killing it immediately.

He hadn't decided how to deal with it yet, so he temporarily stored it in his Space Ring.

Later, during the encounter with the fifth fleet of the Blood Clan, in order to kill those flying Blood Clan members, he had transformed all the other bodies into skeletons during the battle.

Now that only this one remained, he felt no psychological burden.

Time for the transformation.

The reasons had already been provided to Lilith, and since there were no bodies to be found and no skeletons to be seen,

He unleashed the Bone Manipulation Skill and the flesh fell from the body.

A skeleton slowly stood up.

Skeleton Blood Mage (Level 18).

Looking at it now, the overall strength of the Blood Clan really wasn't low.

Do Blood Clans level up easily?

That shouldn't be the case; so many were killed by the fifth fleet, yet their levels weren't very high.

Moreover, Lilith was indeed ruthless.

When pirates reached level 18, the association granted them amnesty.

Lilith directly sealed away four of her kin at level 18.

This woman should not be provoked.

She seems difficult to deal with.

He continued to examine the attributes of the Blood Clan skeleton.

Skeleton Blood Mage

Attributes: Constitution 42, Strength 35, Agility 55, Intelligence 48, Perception 40, Charm 25.

Characteristics: Hollow Skeleton, Advanced Soul, Flight.

Expertise: Leather Armor Expertise (Advanced), Cloth Armor Specialization (Master), Staff Mastery (Master), Dagger Specialization (Advanced).

Skills: Blood Magic, Blood Mist Incarnation, Blood Plague.

Blood Magic: Dark energy formed magic, often using attacks such as Blood Spear, Blood-colored Missiles, etc.

Blood Mist Incarnation: Can transform into a blood mist state to move around.

Blood Plague: Creates a unique area where the plague merges into the blood, causing sustained damage; blood magic effects increase by 100% while self is within the area.

The Blood Clans in front of him were clearly of the mage type.

But in terms of attributes, they had more distinctive traits.

Agility and intelligence were the highest, while constitution and perception were also over 40 points.

This race, apart from vampirism and fear of sunlight, really is quite strong.

In terms of characteristics,

Advanced Soul signifies higher intelligence and understanding.

One can say it's almost akin to a separate individual.

The next characteristic is flight.

This is the inherent flying ability of the Blood Clan, also what Wu Heng finds to be the most practical aspect.

Whether one can fly is actually very important.

Then there are the skills.

A very nice point is,

the Blood Clan mage has retained three skills.

Previously transformed mages would have their skills erased, needing to relearn Necromancy Magic.

According to the introduction,

Blood magic belongs to dark attribute energy magic, and from a certain perspective, it is of the same type as Necromancy Magic.

It may just be that they developed in different directions.

There are a total of three skills: Blood Magic, which is the release of dark energy-type Blood Spear and Blood-Colored Missiles.

I've seen it in combat before.

Blood Mist Incarnation, transforming into a mist of blood to move, charge, or escape, is quite useful.

The last one is Blood Plague, a plague that blends into the blood within an area, causing damage, and has a casting effect within the area, 100% effective.

This move should be similar to the domain of an 18-level professional.

And the plague blending into the blood refers to living beings.

Necromancy, it's not really effective against plagues.

Overall, it's not bad.

“You, come here,” Wu Heng called out to another shadowy figure of the Blood Clan Skeleton.

The one that could blink in succession: the “Skeleton Blood Assassin.”

He checked its attributes.

Most of them were not too different, he mainly looked at its skills.

[Skill: Blood Mist Incarnation, Shadow Stab, Blood Domain.]

[Shadow Stab]: Transform into blood mist and appear around the Lock Target to perform an assassination.

[Blood Domain]: Your mastery of assassination has reached an exalted level, for a certain period, you will form a personal domain around you, immune to attacks.

The characteristics of the Blood Assassin were very clear.

It's all about assassination.

And the trick when I sprayed bullets, and the opponent would blink away.

That's part of the [Blood Domain], being immune to attacks for a while.

Even if at that time I did not use the church emblem to kill him, once the time was up and his skill expired.

I could have killed him myself.

But I have to say, this skill is quite intimidating.

After checking the attributes.

Wu Heng said to the Blood Assassin, “From now on, you are Blood Clan number one.”

Then to the two blood mages, “You are Blood Clan number two, and you are Blood Clan number three.”

“You three come with me, the rest stay here on standby,” he commanded.

After finishing, Wu Heng led a few Skeletons back.

Back at the factory yard.

Qi Hancai was already waiting at the door.

Seeing him coming, her gaze shifted to the three winged Skeletons. “New Skeletons joining?”

“Yeah, Blood Clan number one, Blood Clan number two, Blood Clan number three,” Wu Heng introduced them, then said to the Skeletons, “If I am not around, obey her commands as well.”

Qi Hancai's voice carried a hint of doubt, “Blood Clan?”

“Don't they remind you of the vampires from TV shows? The name is easier to remember,” Wu Heng explained.

“Oh, I thought for a moment you actually killed a few vampires and brought them back with you!”

“As if! Let's go, head to the meeting room first.”

After entering the meeting room.

Qi Hancai reported the events that happened during his absence.

The central station made another trade visit.

They brought machine cannons, grenades, and gold, in exchange for food.

As for the Tiancheng Group issue last time, no one brought it up; both parties acted like it never happened.

The trade went smoothly, and some intelligence was shared.

The second point is that several other cities have restored electricity, which is now freely available.

The third point is that Tiancheng Group is continuing its machinery research, still focusing on firearms and ammunition, and Zhang Chi has been transferred from the old factory in Xinfu City to help with model simulation.

Regarding these developments, Wu Heng was quite satisfied.

After the reports were concluded.

Wu Heng spoke up, “I plan to select a few people to go out with the Skeletons to other cities to clear Zombies and rescue survivors.”

“Have others from the base lead the team? That might be a bit difficult,” Qi Hancai frowned.

Living in the End of the World, everyone has the courage to face Zombies.

It's not as terrifying as it was at the start.

But to ask people from the base to face swarms of Zombies, there probably aren't many who could withstand that pressure.

“I'm not asking them to lead,” Wu Heng carefully organized his words, explaining, “I'm having the Skeleton with the ability to command lead the battle against Zombies. Base members accompanying them will be responsible for any survivors they encounter, and keep us updated at all times.”

Qi Hancai suddenly understood, “That shouldn't be a problem then. I recommend the people I brought from Dongan Village, as well as Yahong's former auto repair shop crew. They have complete trust in us and should be able to handle this task without issue.”

“When the time comes, discuss it with Li Yahong and pick a few people to bring here. I'll speak to them myself,” Wu Heng said.

Qi Hancai nodded, “Understood, I'll go talk about it right away.”

Having discussed the important matters.

Wu Heng continued to look at her.

Considering something in his mind, he took out a rolled-up scroll and placed it on the table.

Qi Hancai raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Looking curiously at the item before her.

“An imperial edict? And rolled up, at that.”
