The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse
Chapter 801

Chapter 801: Chapter 649, how about 500? Chapter 801: Chapter 649, how about 500? Zombie World, Medical Room.

Wu Heng sat on one side, watching the two patients in the room.

The man, about 40, had a pale face and sparse, messy hair, with an IV tubing in his arm, transparent fluid dripping steadily.

On another bed not far away, there was a woman in her 50s with gray, dry hair scattered casually over her shoulders and cracked lips.

Both of them also watched this way, their gazes filled with a hint of unease.

Opposite each sickbed, two armed skeletons stood, their empty eye sockets staring fixedly at the beds, motionless.

These two were South Korean technicians Wu Heng had revived.

After resting for a day yesterday, he came over today to check on their conditions first.

“Feeling better?” Wu Heng asked in Korean.

The two weren't trustworthy, but the base needed people from all walks of life.

If they were willing to work honestly, Wu Heng was still willing to let them join.

The man answered, “I've recovered some.”

“You should have learned something about the base by now, and my attitude is simple, in the environment of the End of the World, we should help each other to survive, rather than harming each other because of race and factional views. What do you think?” Wu Heng said evenly.

The two looked at each other, and it was the man who spoke again, “You're right.”

“Since you've chosen to join the base, work well from now on, and we'll ensure your life and safety,” Wu Heng continued.

“Rest assured, we're just the base's technical staff, your Skull Team's attacks have nothing to do with us, and we will try our best to complete the tasks you give us,” the man said earnestly.

Hearing the other's assurance, Wu Heng nodded, his gaze shifting to the woman inside, “And you?”

The woman also said, “I'll also work according to your requirements, but I hope the work content is within our area of expertise.”

“What were you originally responsible for?” Wu Heng asked smoothly.

The man said, “I was in charge of device control on the ship, and also commanded installation and allocation as required.”

“Can a close-in weapon system be mounted on an escort ship?”

“Yes!”

Wu Heng thought about it some more, then asked, “What about other areas? For instance, if I want to attack the ground or protect the safety of a building.”

The man replied, “That's also possible, but some arrangements need to be made in advance, such as auxiliary systems, ammunition supply systems, and bases, all need to be arranged properly.”

Saving him wasn't a loss after all.

The matter of the close-in weapon system was solved.

“I see,” Wu Heng said, looking again at the woman on the bed, “What area were you in charge of?”

The woman answered, “I was a technical staff member in charge of communications.”

Communications technology…

Wu Heng thought for a moment, then asked, “With the current environment, is it possible to set up an independent communication system, such as between several bases?”

“We can lay telephone lines, set up transfer devices in advance, and maintain telephone communications with each other,” the woman said, pausing slightly before continuing, “You can think of it as an old-fashioned landline. The challenges are power supply and laying out telephone lines.”

Wu Heng pondered and nodded.

What she said wasn't really difficult, and was quite feasible.

“Are old telephone lines easy to find?”

“Not difficult. The current ones still function as before, and places selling these telephone lines are easy to find,” the woman said.

“I see, rest and recover for the next few days. Later, I'll assign you some students, and you'll be responsible for teaching them,” Wu Heng told the two.

Upon hearing they would only be teaching, they internally sighed with relief.

A teacher's position had always been respectable; once the students learned the skills and were placed in various sectors of the base, they too would be his own connections.

It was a very good job.

“Understood,” the two immediately responded.

Wu Heng got up and left with Qi Hancai.

In the hallway.

Qi Hancai said, “Should we arrange a place for them to teach?”

“Prepare a classroom. I'll arrange some of the Skull Team to come and learn from them, as well as some of our own people,” Wu Heng said.

“Okay, I'll take care of it right away,” Qi Hancai said.

With the matter of the two injured settled.

Wu Heng then asked, “Is the motorcade here?”

“It is!”

“Get ready, we're going to clear out some zombies today.”

“Okay,” Qi Hancai agreed, picking up the walkie-talkie to mobilize the motorcade.

Soon, the motorcade and Skull Team gathered at the gate.

Leaving the base, they drove towards the front.

Roar roar roar~!

The dense crowd of corpses clashed against the Spear Array of skeletons.

The sounds of tearing and gnawing echoed through the area.

As zombies fell one after another.

Strands of remnant souls slowly floated up, like cotton drifting with the wind.

Glenda moved among the remnant souls, devouring the fierce Soul after Soul, gaining experience.

“Can Aunt Glenda become a hero too?” Piao asked curiously from the side.

Bella thought for a moment, “We are ghosts, so we probably can't become heroes!”

“That's true, Ao.” Piao flew to Wu Heng's side. “Uncle, what is a Level 20 ghost called?”

Wu Heng shook his head, “I don't know. There's no record of a ghost reaching Level 20.”

“Then could Aunt Glenda be the first one?”

“It's possible. By then we'll know what Level 20 is called,” Wu Heng said with a smile.

Piao said again, “Oh oh, can she reach Level 20 today?”

“She should be able to reach Level 19 today. Level 20 comes after 19.”

“I know!”

While the person and two ghosts were talking, a system prompt also sounded in their ears.

[Ghost enhanced to Level 19, Agility +1, Intelligence +2, Perception +2, Charm +1.]

They had leveled up.

Wu Heng looked up and saw Glenda still devouring the remnant souls.

And the number of remnant souls wasn't as dense as at the beginning.

Once the horde of corpses below was nearly annihilated, the ghosts in the sky were also completely devoured by Glenda.

Wu Heng continued to give orders, “Advance the whole army.”

Clatter~!

The Skeleton Army rose to its feet and started to advance forward, killing all targets along the way.

Glenda flew back.

Piao and Bella flew over to inquire about Glenda's condition.

Wu Heng then picked up the walkie-talkie, calling Qi Hancai to bring the convoy over to start scavenging.

Before long, the battle ended.

Bodies were dragged out from various places, and Wu Heng performed transformations.

A vast number of skeletons stood up and joined the Skull Team.

After the convoy finished scavenging the spoils of war, Wu Heng resumed his seat in the passenger side, heading back to the base together.

Once back at the base, he left the rest of the work to Qi Hancai.

Wu Heng went back to his room and returned to the Otherworld.

Island Lord's Mansion.

Coming down from upstairs, Mini and a few others were counting gifts in the room.

Seeing Wu Heng come down, they all greeted him.

“Did someone come?”

Mini said, “A lot of people came; Andre Willow's Steward arranged for people to come over twice, asking if you were at home.”

“Is it all because of the auction event?”

“I don't know their purpose, but it's definitely not due to any case,” Mini said bluntly.

Wu Heng scanned the living room for the gift boxes. “Anything good?”

“Quite a few good items.” Mini took out a beautifully carved sculpture from the gift box.

Robey took out from another gift box a pair of glasses hanging with a gem pendant, stretched out a finger, and passed it through where the lens should be, “Empty.”

It's similar to the last time, all objects reflecting noble and elegant lifestyle.

It would be better to give me two automatic heating bath tubs to place at the newly occupied bases.

“See where it's suitable to place them, those that are not needed, store them first,” Wu Heng said.

“Yes, master,” Mini nodded.

The three maids opened them one by one, their faces full of excitement as if opening blind boxes.

From time to time, they let out exclamations, boasting about the gifts they recognized.

Wu Heng sat aside watching the maids select gifts, a smile also on his face.

Sometimes people would come to visit outside the door.

Mini would use Wu Heng's absence as an excuse, asking them to come back another day.

As dusk neared.

Andre Willow and Shanaela also returned from outside.

They sat together at the dining table, sharing dinner.

After eating a little, Shanaela picked up a handkerchief, gently wiped the corners of her mouth, and spoke softly, “Today, when you were not here, a lot of people went to my place.”

Wu Heng said with a smile, “I feel like we could maintain a living just by selling these gifts in the future.”

“Without your current status, who would send you gifts?” Shanaela glanced sideways at him.

“True,” Wu Heng picked up his wine glass and took a sip.

Shanaela continued, “The venue is already set up, the elixirs are set to five bottles, starting bid at five hundred Gold Coins, what do you think?”
