Chapter 984: Chapter 787, Skeleton Beats Up People Chapter 984: Chapter 787, Skeleton Beats Up People The Chamber of Commerce representatives hid in the corner, their eyes wide as saucers, mouths agape but unable to make a sound.
What was that?
Flames soared into the sky.
Before the crowd could get a clear view, the waves churned, and the ship swayed violently, everyone tumbling into a heap.
The Alchemy Vice Chairman Sede, seeing everyone's expressions,
propped himself up on the railing, his face lit with excitement as he shouted, “Gold and Silver Island has offended the Divine Spirits, this is a heavenly warning, the next to be swallowed by the fire dragon will be Gold and Silver Island.”
The people's faces turned even uglier.
At that moment, the lookout at the masthead shouted, “The navy of Gold and Silver Island is coming.”
Turning around, they saw a naval ship approaching, flying the flag of Gold and Silver Island.
Once within a certain distance, a thunderous voice carried over, “Cock-Tail Island is testing weapons, Chamber of Commerce fleet should not linger, continue moving forward.”
Gold and Silver Island is testing new weapons?
The loud noise just now, was that a weapon?
Bullshit about angering the Divine Spirits, that was Gold and Silver Island's weapon.
The crowd looked towards Sede, who also stood there dumbfounded, his eyes dodging as he watched the naval ship.
The ship bypassed the area.
The Chamber of Commerce representatives regrouped, continuing to discuss cooperation with Gold and Silver Island.
As for Sede's proposal…
Forget it, no idea where he's hiding and trembling now.
…
Cock-Tail Island.
Wu Heng descended from the Flying Carpet, looking at the deep crater left on the ground.
The ammunition for the Electromagnetic Cannon was still buried deep underground.
Just now, three types of ammunition had been tested–flame, poison gas, and thunder–all functioning normally.
Seemed quite impressive indeed.
It was just a matter of what scenes they would be applied in.
“I think the flame one looked the prettiest.”
Bella laughed, “The lightning one wasn't bad either, just the poison gas one looks ugly, all green and oily.”
Xiao Xiao agreed, “Mhm, the poison gas one wasn't good.”
Wu Heng couldn't be bothered with their chatter, and after inspecting the site, he took the Flying Carpet towards the naval position.
Heading back to Gold and Silver Island together.
Back at the Island Lord's Mansion.
Dinner was ready.
Mini called out, “Master, come and eat.”
Wu Heng sat down at the dining table, and Andre Willow asked softly, “Master, why didn't I see you this afternoon?”
“I went to test out the magic-engraved projectiles. Continue to order some from the Dwarf Magic Arrow Shop,” Wu Heng instructed.
“Okay,” Andre Willow nodded.
“Sister Veera only talks about work,” Mini said while peeling shrimp and popping them into Wu Heng's mouth, then sucked on her fingertips.
“You think I am like you, sitting at home all day with the air conditioning.” Andre Willow glared back.
“Bad Fox is bullying people again, wait for Master to punish you.” Mini pouted, peeled two more pieces of shrimp, and fed them to Wu Heng, “Eat more, Master, so you can discipline her tonight.”
“Hmm, tonight together,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
Mini nodded with laughter, and Andre Willow glanced shyly and cautiously over here.
After dinner.
The maids went out to train, and Wu Heng returned to the study.
Glenda sent over a document floating towards him, “I've written this for you, check if it's okay.”
Wu Heng took it; it was the instruction manual for the pills.
The content was divided into two parts: one for precautions, the other carried Wu Heng's personal information and the original intention behind developing the pills.
It was rather simple and more accessible for the ordinary people of this world to understand.
Glenda had quite a way with words, reminiscent of reading stories.
“How about it?” Glenda asked.
Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, “Really well written, I like this line, 'Elixirs are no longer the exclusive domain of the elite; they shall serve everyone.'”
“Really? You look at things from the perspective of an ordinary person,” Glenda said with a smile.
“You would have made a fortune writing novels in my era,” Wu Heng remarked.
Glenda rolled her eyes, “What, you still want me to write books to support you?”
“Could I? To support the three of us.”
“Like hell you could, are you a demon? I'm already like this, and you still want me to support you,” Glenda snapped back venomously.
Wu Heng stopped joking with her.
He said, “The instruction manual doesn't need changes; it's good.”
“That's good, then. You can arrange for someone to print it directly,” Glenda said, returning to her spot and picking up a book to continue reading.
Wu Heng tucked the manual into the Space Ring.
As night fell.
He said goodbye and left the study, calling Mini and Andre Willow to return to their room to rest.
The next day, after breakfast,
Wu Heng headed straight for Zombie World.
Sitting in the control room, he observed the status of the test subjects in all the prison cells.
The first batch of animals had completely undergone their aberrant transformations, incessantly howling and struggling within the cells.
“`
Every time a new virus was injected, several high-level skeletons were required to hold down the subject in order to complete the injection.
Glancing at the ordinary prison cells, Wu Heng continued to gaze at the private chamber for the Zombie King.
At this moment, the Zombie King had clearly grown larger, resembling a giant curled up on the floor compared to the skeleton guards watching over it.
The sinewy muscles and enlarged insect wings both appeared extraordinarily ferocious.
It must be over two meters tall, nearly three meters by now.
Indeed, it kept getting bigger and bigger.
Wu Heng watched as a skeleton took out a Corpse Core and fed it into the Zombie King's mouth.
The Zombie King didn't struggle at all, simply opening its mouth to swallow it and then continued to squat on the ground.
Had it resigned to its fate?
Or was it waiting to evolve and then make an escape all at once?
Beep beep~!
The sound of a car horn came from outside.
Wu Heng glanced at the monitor, and saw that Li Yahong had arrived with a convoy.
He got up and went downstairs, ordering the skeletons to load the raw materials for the medicine tablets brought from the warehouse into the truck, while he himself took Li Yahong into his office.
The two sat down in chairs, and Wu Heng handed over the instructions to be printed, “Print these out and put a copy in every box of tablets. Let the skeletons do the work, and all the vacant machines can also be fully operational.”
This shipment of materials should suffice for production for some time.
Li Yahong glanced at them and then tucked them away.
Then she said, “I've discussed with Qi Hancai about forming an investigation team to start surveying all bases.”
During this period, Wu Heng had been considering this issue as well.
As time passed, certain survivors began to grow restless.
Wu Heng and Li Yahong couldn't be everywhere at once, so an investigation team, or rather an inspection team, became necessary.
Thinking it over, Wu Heng said, “I will arrange for skeletons at various locations to record the situation on-site and to collect complaint letters, which could also serve as a warning to others.”
Humans are not immune to temptation.
Left unattended, anyone would start to stray gradually.
Moreover, the survivors who had lived through encounters with zombies and bloodshed, they were no longer the people of peaceful times.
“That's an idea,” Li Yahong nodded.
“Arrange for some skeletons to be sent to the military factory tomorrow. I have a task here that I need you to pass on to Gao Rong for them to handle,” Wu Heng continued.
“Alright, I'll get it sorted out tomorrow.”
The two talked until the afternoon.
Li Yahong left with several trucks of materials, and Wu Heng stayed at the prison a while longer before returning to Gold and Silver Island.
Radio room.
Wu Heng picked up the radio and made contact with Wen Mansha.
“Have those people been bothering you again lately?” Wu Heng asked.
Wen Mansha answered, “No, but that envoy is still staying in the city. I suspect they have other motives, and coming to the City Lord's Mansion was not really about the matter at hand.”
Wu Heng also felt it was problematic that the person had stayed, “If he's staying, it's definitely to wait for the Second Prince's next command. Be careful lately.”
“That guy can't beat us now,” Wen Mansha said with confidence.
Wu Heng sternly replied, “It's precisely because he can't beat us that he will resort to underhand tricks.”
“I'll be careful. The skeletons you arranged for me are all set up; there won't be any problems,” Wen Mansha spoke softly.
“Good, that's reassuring.”
“Any news from the Yeko Kingdom?” Wen Mansha continued to inquire.
“No specific news yet, let's wait a bit longer.”
Wen Mansha could only respond, “Alright then.”
After ending the communication, Wu Heng returned to the study.
He sat in the room as the light began to dim.
He went back to his room to rest.
Zombie World.
The military factory was under the blazing sun.
The investigation team arrived, and Gao Rong gathered everyone for a meeting before the rest returned to the office.
Gao Rong stayed behind to talk with Li Yahong about the inspection.
In one office area.
“Is the skeleton Manager Gao spoke of really as extraordinary as he said, even capable of noting down when someone slacks off?” one person spoke up.
Another laughed and said, “You still don't know about those skeletons? Each one is so dull; I think they are just for scaring us.”
Tap tap tap~!
As they were talking, a skeleton dressed in a suit came upstairs and into the room.
It stood erect on the side of the office area, holding a notebook, ready to take notes.
“It really is recording something.”
“How could it write? If skeletons were that capable, why would we need to be sitting here?”
As they spoke, one of them snatched the record book from the investigators' skeleton and looked at the writing inside.
It was a bunch of unfamiliar symbols, somewhat resembling Middle Eastern script.
“Cao, there really is something written here.”
Bang~!
The next second, a fist swung fiercely and struck direct on the chest.
The man staggered backward, the air knocked out of him as he fell onto the floor.
The others were startled and immediately rushed to help, while also warily eyeing the skeleton in front.
“What happened?”
During the chaos, Gao Rong and Li Yahong arrived on the scene with several people in tow.
Someone shouted, “The skeleton attacked someone.”
