Bella did a half turn in mid-air, “I'm fine, thank you Wu Heng, thank you Lady Glenda, and Miss Xiao Xiao.”
Glenda and Xiao Xiao both nodded with a smile.
Wu Heng said, “Do it a few more times and your level will rise, no need to rush.”
“I'll listen to you!” Bella smiled.
Raising Bella's level was also part of the plan.
Level 2 was simply too low.
Wu Heng was afraid that one day when she went out, a profession with high Perception might discover her and kill her with some trick.
So, it was best to increase her level as soon as possible.
Xiao Xiao flew to mid-air and glanced at the skeletons advancing along the road.
She asked, “Uncle, why haven't you summoned your glowing knight?”
“Let's not be in a hurry to summon it, let's see if we can get Kerim's level up to 18 first.”
“Oh! But I still think the Light Knight is cooler, cooler than Kerim,” Xiao Xiao said.
“Being cool is useless, practicality is what matters.”
“Still not as cool as the Light Knight,” she retorted.
Wu Heng shrugged, “When Kerim comes back, I'll tell him you spoke ill of him.”
“Uncle, they're created by you, they don't understand these things,” Xiao Xiao earnestly told him.
Uh…
Wu Heng was stunned, Xiao Xiao had become smart.
Xiao Xiao didn't continue talking to him and, hearing Lady Glenda teaching Bella about the Remnant Soul, she also went over to share some experience.
Wu Heng opened his own experience points to take a look.
[Level: 18 (295713/305000)]
He had gained almost 40,000 experience points.
There were about 10,000 left to go.
Not too much remained.
Even if he didn't kill zombies himself, with the two skeleton armies advancing outward and continuing to fight and kill zombies,
he would almost be able to level up.
He stood to one side and waited, and the battle up ahead was nearing its end.
“Clean up the battlefield!” Wu Heng ordered.
The skeletons instantly dispersed, beginning to sort the bodies and transport them to different locations.
Wu Heng separately transformed the Evolved Skeletons and Mutated Skeletons, collected the Corpse Cores, and continued to unleash a wide range of [Battleground of Remains].
A large number of bones slowly stood up and joined the ranks.
“Qi Hancai, take people to check the surroundings,” Wu Heng pressed the walkie-talkie and spoke.
“Roger that!”
The convoy drove over from the rear.
They began to scavenge the shops along the way.
This was a general scavenging operation, marking certain special shops and buildings.
The next day, more convoys would arrive to search the items thoroughly.
The survivors loaded some important items onto the trucks.
That was about it.
Qi Hancai came back and said, “We can go back now, I'll bring people over tomorrow to search thoroughly.”
Wu Heng nodded, boarded the truck with the skeletons.
The convoy began to adjust positions, surrounded by the escort of the Skeleton Army.
They started the return journey.
After arriving back at the military factory, Qi Hancai went to contact Li Yahong.
Wu Heng went back to the dormitory, opened the boundary door, and returned to Gold and Silver Island.
The next day.
Wu Heng arrived at the association early in the morning on a horse-drawn carriage.
Standing in front of the Steward's Office, he knocked on the door and went straight in.
Inside the room, Xi Ligui was sitting behind the desk, and her assistant Shi Yali was cutting out the story section from a newspaper.
“You wanted to see me?” Wu Heng asked.
Yesterday, Xi Ligui had arranged someone to find him at the Island Lord's Mansion.
He wasn't there at the time, and by the time he returned to Gold and Silver Island, it was dusk.
So he came over today.
Xi Ligui nodded, “Rewards were sent over from headquarters, probably for killing members of the Heaven Destiny Cult. Your records have been updated with the eradication of an Evil Cult, and you've been awarded First-Class Merits.”
Considering the timing, the rewards should indeed have been issued by now.
His return from Black Stone Town had taken quite some time.
“What's the reward?” Wu Heng was somewhat excited.
“A Skill Book,” Xi Ligui took out a Skill Book and pushed it across the desk.
It wasn't an accessory for the Robe of Hundred Soldiers.
This had to be deliberate from headquarters.
Why not prioritize the accessories for a set?
While thinking this, his gaze still fell on the Skill Book.
[Necromantic Torrent]
(Description: You will cause the Necromantic Power underfoot to form an energy torrent, enhancing undead creatures within the region and eroding living beings with Necromantic Power, inflicting both physical and mental harm.)
Seeing the description of the Skill Book, Wu Heng's eyebrows raised.
Based on the description, the effects of the skill seemed quite good.
An areof-effect skill that boosts undead creatures within range while afflicting the living with necrosis.
For him, indeed, it was a rather fine skill.
Especially now with so many skeletons at his command, the effect would definitely be better.
“Thank you,” Wu Heng collected the Skill Book and then said, “Can I request a reward? I'm still missing one piece from my last set.”
Xi Ligui pondered, “That I'm not sure of, but when you report your Merits next time, just write a letter and I'll send it along.”
“Alright, I'll write it beforehand next time. If they give it, great, if not, so be it,” Wu Heng replied.
Anyways, the headquarters should be distributing rewards according to the profession and characteristics of the recipient.
By specifying what he wanted, there was a good chance he would get it.
After discussing business,
Shi Yali came out from the back, sat next to her sister, rested her chin on her hand, and looked at him, “Is the Evil Cult in this story the same one you went out to kill last time?”
Wu Heng didn't hide it, “Yes, its name was changed in the story to avoid drawing their attention.”
Xi Ligui followed up with a question, “So, is Bella's story true as well?”
“True.”
“And now? How is Bella doing?” Xi Ligui continued to inquire.
Wu Heng looked at them both as the sisters stared back with wide eyes, waiting for an answer.
