The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 774

Chapter 774: Chapter 624, I Can Sleep Peacefully Too Chapter 774: Chapter 624, I Can Sleep Peacefully Too In a tavern's private room.

“Mr. Magnoro, why the sudden decision to leave the island? Is there some special news?” Ludiu asked curiously.

After the exhibition, everyone was paying attention to the three exhibits from Gold and Silver Island.

Only 'Magnoro' suddenly returned and wanted to leave the island.

Magnoro answered in an even tone, “I've come across some matters that need my attention. They have nothing to do with the exhibition, so don't worry.”

“With the announcement of the Strengthening Potion, who knows how many people will come to Gold and Silver Island? If we stay, we might make an even bigger profit,” Ludiu continued.

Magnoro smiled and shook his head. “I'll come and visit the Island Lord again after some time. The gifts have already been sent over in the name of the merchant association, so my personal presence doesn't make much of a difference.”

Having heard this, Ludiu had no more persuasion to offer.

Originally, he thought that the other's hasty departure was because he found some issue with the island, which is why he also followed back.

Now it seems it's entirely due to the other's personal affairs.

Nothing to do with Gold and Silver Island.

“What time is your ship ticket for?” Ludiu asked.

“Before dusk.”

“That's quite urgent,” Ludiu remarked. He then redirected the conversation back to the exhibition. “This time, Gold and Silver Island introduced three products, which will soon be spread by various merchant associations. If any of them can get their hands on the goods first, they could make a fortune, maybe even elevate their association to a new level.”

Even someone not sensitive to market trends could see the importance of this exhibition's items.

Fountain pens will definitely replace quills, and watches will become tools for precise timekeeping.

Not to mention other professions, alchemists definitely need watches for timing, and mechanists will probably buy them to dismantle for study.

And currently, mechanists have one particular characteristic.

They can make big things, but if it comes to small, precise mechanical items, they can hardly complete them.

Which means, even if they buy and dismantle them, they won't be able to replicate them in the short term.

As for the Strengthening Potion,

it's simply the trump card. Once the news spreads, it's not just the merchant associations; the royal nobles will want to discuss purchases too.

The competition will only be greater.

Magnoro also nodded in agreement, “Yes, it will depend on how Gold and Silver Island arranges it at that time. If they choose to sell exclusively to just a few companies, the remaining associations may not even get a taste.”

“I wanted to discuss this too. If this really happens, our associations could try to form a partnership to secure a chance at the pie,” Ludiu said.

“No problem. I'll discuss this with the higher-ups when I get back and make a decision,” Magnoro said with a smile.

With the matter settled, Ludiu also stood up with a smile, “I won't disturb you further then. I should also check with the other associations; we can discuss further if there's any news.”

Magnoro escorted him to the door, “Take care. Feel free to write to me if there's any new information.”

“Sure!” Ludiu replied and left, descending the stairs.

Magnoro then returned to the dining table and lapsed into silence.

On Lighthouse Street, in the middle of the road.

“My lord, the road ahead is blocked again,” the coachman's voice rang out as the carriage began to crawl forward.

The island's newspaper circulation and today's exhibition,

had turned the entire small island into a buzz of activity as if it were a festival, with traffic congested three times already since entering Lighthouse Street.

The closer to the direction of the harbor, the more pedestrians there were on the streets.

“Uncle, let's go have a look first!”

In the carriage, Xiao Xiao hung over his shoulder and whispered.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and then shook his head, “No rush. We already know the location; let's hurry over.”

Glenda, level 18, could directly possess and kill her former husband if she found him.

Without a result, the opponent's level might be too high to allow for easy possession, or they might have some means to counteract ghosts.

Without a way for Glenda, both Xiao Xiao and Benny going there would basically be tantamount to sending their heads on a platter.

“Just pull over to the side; we'll walk the rest of the way,” Wu Heng said directly.

“Alright.” After the carriage stopped and Wu Heng paid, he called out to a nearby Patrol Guard Skeleton, “Follow me!”

Clatter clatter~!

The Patrol Guard Skeleton pushed through the crowd and quickly came over.

Wu Heng took out a flying carpet and flew up into the sky, continuing to hurry on his way, while below a small troop of Patrol Guard Skeletons followed at a brisk run.

Seeing the flying carpet in the sky and the running skeletons below,

gasps of astonishment rose from the crowd along the way.

Tavern hall.

Ever since she saw that familiar figure, Glenda had not left and followed all the way to the tavern.

Her appearance had aged, but her movements and the way she walked hadn't changed at all.

She wanted to know why he wanted to kill her.

Back then, they had such a good relationship, why did he have to torment her in such a cruel way?

She had to get to the bottom of this.

After all, she had long been dead.

There was nothing to fear anymore.

Inside the tavern, a bard was telling the story of “Blushing Maid Benny”.

Following the content of the tale, the guests occasionally sighed, and some cursed the Evil Cult angrily.

It seemed that only after coming to Gold and Silver Island did she truly start living the life she wanted.

As she was thinking this, the door to the private room across opened.

The merchant who had followed her came down the stairs and left with his attendant.

Glenda's gaze turned icy again.

She flew straight towards the private room across.

Today, there had to be a resolution.

Inside the private room.

Magnoro sat alone at the wine table, pouring one cup after another into his mouth.

His gaze was unfocused, as if he were recalling something.

Ever since he had come to the island, he had a premonition.

It made him very reluctant to go to the Island Lord's Mansion, especially after hearing the stories in the newspaper, his unease had grown.

Now that the exhibition was over, he could explain himself once he got back.

Then, whoever wanted to come to the island, it didn't matter, it would no longer have anything to do with him.

“Wu Heng! This body might be of great interest to those above,” Magnoro murmured softly to himself.

And as he spoke,

Suddenly, he felt a cold chill fill the room.

Before he could react,

Crack~!

The pendant on his chest exploded suddenly, forming a honeycomb-shaped shield that deflected a soul attack.

Startled by the sudden attack, Magnoro's drunkenness swiftly dissipated.

Looking towards the air, he saw the figure of the ghost emerge, his eyes showing terror, doubt, and avoidance, “Glenda!”

“It's me, Magnoro, I'm here to kill you.” Glenda's soul body, hovering in mid-air, was somewhat unstable.

That protective amulet was clearly a fine item.

It had the ability to fend off ghost possession.

Then, Glenda charged directly at him again, like a fierce ghost.

Magnoro stumbled back in panic, his body emitting a divine light which blocked the rushing ghost.

Glenda had reached level 18, and all her attributes had greatly improved.

But this light, too, was like a powerful force specifically designed to subjugate necromantic beings, and her soul body was instantly blown away.

The soul body was unstable, and if it had been a lower level, it might have been scattered by this energy.

Magnoro, seeing that she couldn't attack him,

Quickly shifted from panic to disbelief and relief on his face.

Looking at the air, he said softly, “Glenda, is it really you? You've become a soul body.”

Glenda swiftly stabilized her soul body, her eyes slightly narrowed as she watched him.

“Don't say my name, it's disgusting!”

Magnoro still smiled.

His behavior was still as graceful as an aged noble.

He said softly, “My dear, without you, I've been living aimlessly, and now that you've come to me, it's truly wonderful.”

“If I kill you, I'll finally be able to sleep peacefully.”
