The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Even amongst the many factions in Lundham City, having developed a group of over a thousand, he’s garnered some scale.

Although most of them are distributed in the outskirts and beyond the city, a large number of people manage to be quite effective.

Otherwise, ‘Fisher’ wouldn’t have turned to him.

It should be considered a middle to upper-level faction.

It seems, my plan needs some adjustments.

Killing ‘Rocky’ and ‘Fisher’ will require some careful planning.

If Rocky died first, Fisher could likely detect it and make some other preparations.

In contrast, if I kill Fisher first, Rocky could just turn and run.

Finding him would be difficult then.

They must be killed more or less at the same time.

As the cloak loosely draped over her body grew larger, Wen Mansha started to panic a bit.

She whispered, “Master, though I am willing to serve you, there are others present. Please consider my dignity.”

“These two are my servants, they are physically not alive, hence devoid of emotions.”

Wen Mansha looked at them cautiously, the two individuals had round helmets on, blocking their faces from her sight.

Standing over there, they hadn’t moved at all, they truly didn’t seem human.

Confused as to their nature, she turned her back toward the outside.

While Wu Heng was caressing her body, he also continued to inquire the information he needed.

“What level is Rocky?”

“Tenth level warrior, but he should have some special lineage that allows him to temporarily boost his strength.”

“Are there other strongmen in the gang?”

“There were eight backbones. One died yesterday on your side, and now there are seven left. They’re all level eight, with some squad leaders managing below.”

During their conversation, Wen Mansha’s robe fell to the ground revealing her incredibly attractive figure.

Her body was voluptuous, waist slender, a slight plumpness around her abdomen that’s soft to touch, her breasts were high and firm, skin smooth and pale.

A woman of such caliber was indeed a delicacy, it would have been a shame had she been killed earlier.

Wen Mansha hung onto him, her beautiful eyes filled with desire, slowly starting to undress him.

Her soft fingers gliding across his chest, her face turned slightly red, “Master, your muscles are so beautiful…”

Daringly, she lightly stroked him, “Are you also a warrior?”

“A mage! What about you?”

“I’m a ranger.” Wen Mansha continued to caress him.

Wu Heng touched her chest, “You’re a ranger with these?”

“If master is not satisfied, I’ll cut them off tomorrow.” She laughed, continuing her thought, “You’re a mage? How did you develop these muscles which even the melee professions wouldn’t have? Fisher and the others really picked the wrong opponent. You’ll certainly become a big shot in the future.”

“You do have a sweet mouth.”

“If you don’t mind, you can have a taste.” As she says this, she slightly stuck out her tongue.

She truly is enchanting.

Before long, the atmosphere between them grew hot and steamy.

Ablaze with desire, Mansha asked, “Master, is this acceptable?”

“Hmm!”

…..

The next morning.

Wu Heng sat by the bed, gently stroking the red-haired woman kneeling beside it. He murmured, “You have two tasks. First, when ‘Rocky’ returns, tell me his whereabouts. Second, find a way to gradually take control of the ‘Pinned Gang’. Once Rocky dies, I’ll help you seize this position.”

Wen Mansha lifted her head, asking, “What about ‘Fisher’? Won’t he keep posing a threat to your safety?”

“I’m similar to him, merely unable to act openly.”

“Oh.”

After a while…

The sound of conversation and footsteps gradually approaching came from outside the door.

Knock Knock Knock~!

The door was knocked upon, and a voice was heard, “Sister-in-law, breakfast is ready at the pub.”

“Cough~! I got it, you guys wait outside the courtyard, I’ll be out soon.”

“Yes, ma’am!”

The footsteps faded away.

Wen Mansha whispered, “Master, I need to go. I will send someone to report to you.”

“Hm.”

Wen Mansha changed into a fitted long dress, a scarf hiding the pale scars from last night, changing from her provocative demeanor back to her reserved and indifferent self.

She stepped outside.

A few gang members were guarding the door.

All greeting her in turns.

“Good morning, sister-in-law!”

“Hello, sister-in-law!”

Wen Mansha nodded and returned to her aloof and proud demeanor, “Yes, you guys can leave this place now, there’s nothing special about an ordinary house. You should all go to the pub for breakfast, it’s my treat.”

“Thanks, Sis!”

After saying that, she left.

The other guys followed her.

“Why is Sis in such a good mood today?”

“Maybe Boss sent her some good news, it’s always nice when she’s in a good mood, she won’t yell at us.”

“That’s true…”

…

Wu Heng got dressed and left.

He did not expect that last night’s operation would turn out this way.

Not only did he find out who was behind it all, but he also managed to acquire a dutiful maid.

His time in Lundham City hadn’t been the most pleasant.

The pub girls here were quite open-minded, they would just reach into their pockets and ask if you wanted to have some fun.

He had been considering finding a companion.

He did not expect to solve that issue in this manner.

But it seemed to be pretty nice, body and mind felt good!

He visited an alchemy materials shop and bought large quantities of alchemy materials and tools.

All these were needed by the ‘Alchemy Skeleton’, he could forget other things, but not this.

He went straight to the Adventurers’ Guild after returning to the inner city area.

It was still early, so there were not many people in the lobby. A few adventurers were standing in front of the bulletin board, looking at the tasks on it.

Wu Heng also stood there for a while. He was about to leave when he saw the members of the 8th squad coming in from the main entrance.

Fisher was among them.

Wu Heng narrowed his eyes and quietly unclasped his gun holster.

On seeing this, ‘Fisher’ abruptly stopped in his tracks, but quickly recovered his composure and strode briskly towards him.

He greeted Wu Heng with a smile, “Captain Wu Heng, you’re here early today.”

Wow, he’s got a good poker face.

Wu Heng also stopped and said, “Don’t get me started, my place was broken into by thieves the night before, I haven’t slept well for two nights.”

Fisher’s face changed slightly, “Oh my god, were you injured? People dare to steal in the inner city?”

“I wasn’t hurt, but I’ve been wondering about the identities of those guys,” Wu Heng replied, feigning distress.

Fisher took a glance at Wu Heng’s expression and continued, “Lundham city is like this. There are too many idle people. Forget about you, I heard that even the city hall has been robbed. As long as no one died and nothing valuable was lost, there is no need to dwell on it. Just be more cautious next time.”

“Yeah, you’re right, Fisher.” Wu Heng glanced at the team members standing behind Fisher, “Is the 8th squad heading out on a mission?”

“No, we had some misunderstanding with the 12th squad last time. We just got back to work and came to report to the executive,” Fisher glanced in the direction of the executive’s office.

“Ah, you should hurry then. Don’t keep the executive waiting. We’ll chat next time!”

“Sure!”

The several people said their goodbyes and went their separate ways.

After walking a few steps, Fisher turned his head slightly to glance at Wu Heng who did not look back.

Wu Heng didn’t look back. He left straight away.

Fisher’s acting was quite good. If he didn’t have the information from last night, he might have been tricked by him.

But knowing that he was the man behind it all, Wu Heng could detect the probing in his words, and the relief in his expressions when he heard himself talking about thieves.

He must be worried that Wu Heng would find something investigative and report it directly to the guild.

Killing a fellow adventurer is no small matter.

But the procedures might be complicated—investigation, confirmation, it would be difficult to really nail it down.

Wu Heng didn’t plan to settle it through the guild.

With some small tricks, he, a necromancer, should be able to handle a close-combat professional like Fisher.

…

Upon returning to his residence.

Wu Heng once again checked the security of his living quarters.

He should arrange for more manpower to enhance the security here.

After sitting in the living room for a while.

He opened a boundary door and went straight to the Zombie World.

He gave the purchased medicinal materials to the Alchemy Skeleton, and then used the communicator to contact Li Yahong.

Soon, Li Yahong ran over.

“How’s the preparation going?” Wu Heng asked.

“I went to the hospital yesterday and transported all the equipment and instruments that I could. I’ll go out tonight to scrounge more stuff from the nearby shops,” Li Yahong replied.

They were about to leave this place, so they planned to take all the usable things with them.

“Fine, if that’s not enough, make an extra trip back first, I’ll let ‘Big Head’ go back with you,”

“Okay, let’s do that tomorrow. Make one initial trip,” Li Yahong said, looking at the assembled skeletons and asked, “Are we going out?”

Wu Heng nodded.

“You should prepare too, we’re going to the business district.”
