Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1001, Thank you, sir

Woo~!

A melodious whistle sounded, and the ghost train appeared out of thin air like a phantom.

The car door opened with a clatter, and Wu Heng stepped out of the car, leaving a shallow footprint on the soft sand under his feet.

The sea breeze blowing in my face carries a salty and humid breath. The blue sea in the distance is sparkling. A few seagulls fly over the waves, making crisp cries.

"We're finally here!" Wu Heng took a deep breath and released his four ghosts.

The other ghosts looked around, and the empress stretched out her soul, floated over and asked, "Sky Fox Clan, where are you going to arrange it?"

"A new residential area has been built on the island. Let Annette allocate an area for them to live in." Wu Heng said as he walked, "Don't worry, this place is much better than the previous village. It's also because of you, a great fox girl."

The queen said angrily, "It's not my fault, it's yours, great leader!"

Xiao Xiao flew over and said with her hands on her hips, "Aunt! Do you know the benefits of joining us now? You were so reluctant at first!"

The queen rolled her eyes, "We were enemies back then, would you be willing to do that in your place?"

"Now you know!" Xiaoxiao said proudly.

The empress smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Xiaoxiao and your uncle are the best!"

Xiaoxiao smiled even happier.

As you step into the commercial street, the hustle and bustle of the entire island hits you.

The streets are bustling with people; the shouts of vendors, the bargaining of mercenaries, and the noises of children playing are intertwined together, creating a vibrant scene.

What is most striking is that almost everyone is talking about the same thing: 'collecting cards'.

"Becker opened a purple card yesterday and sold it for 150 silver coins."

"I have a lot of duplicate blue cards. I'm going to go to the tavern and find someone to exchange them with."

“The Blue Card is worthless!”

"I haven't heard of anyone getting a gold card!"

"The odds are definitely low, otherwise everyone would have made a fortune."

As Wu Heng walked past, when he was far away from the crowd, Glenda's voice came from his ear, "Your 'card' method is more effective than the previous pill instructions."

Wu Heng tilted his head and said, "In our world, these are all leftovers from children's play."

When he increased his fame, he did so by including instructions in the boxes of pills he sold.

It is clearly stated on the box, and detailed instructions for use are in the instructions. Anyone who can read will take a look at it to avoid incorrect use and possible danger.

But this is ultimately limited by literacy rates.

In this world, illiterate people account for a larger number.

Viola's card strategy is even simpler and more brutal, with graphic promotion + rarity stimulation + high bounty redemption, which directly ignited the enthusiasm for collecting cards.

Of course, these are nothing new in the original world.

"The tavern has already set up a card exchange area!" Xiaoxiao flew back from a distance and reported excitedly, "They react really quickly!"

Wu Heng nodded, "Businessmen always have the sharpest sense of smell."

The tavern in Treasure Island has always been a trend setter. When the great detective stories were popular, they launched a special session for bards. When best-selling products were hot sellers, they opened a purchasing agency business. Now that the card craze is on the rise, they immediately added a card trading area.

No matter what new activities Treasure Island launches, they can always get a share of the action.

"Let's go to the City Hall."

Wu Heng waved his hand, stopped a carriage, and drove towards the center.

……

town Hall.

The heavy mahogany door was gently pushed open, making a slight creaking sound.

Inside the room, sunlight poured in through the French windows, illuminating two figures. Millicent was standing on tiptoe with a pile of documents in her arms, stuffing them onto the bookshelf. Annette was writing quickly at her desk, the quill pen between her fingertips making rustling sounds on the paper.

Hearing the noise, they both looked over at the same time.

Millicent bowed slightly while holding the documents, "My Lord."

She is Philippa's mother and is an investigator by profession, so Wu Heng arranged a clerical job for her in the city hall.

Handling documents and writing records are both ways for investigators to advance in rank.

Annette's eyes lit up, "Master, you're back!"

Wu Heng sat down beside him, "Why are there so many documents?"

Annette smiled bitterly, "I've been a little busy lately."

Wu Heng told them to leave trivial tasks to their subordinates as much as possible, while he would focus on training. After all, Annette was a warrior, and training was needed to improve her level.

But Treasure Island has developed a little too fast, especially with the recent surge in consortium trade. All kinds of approvals, agreements, and scheduling documents have been flying in like snowflakes. Even if they are diverted layer by layer, they will eventually converge on the core desk of City Hall.

At this time, Millicent brought tea and stood respectfully aside.

Wu Heng continued, "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's take a look at the newly built residential areas and see which one is more suitable. Choose a location close to the commercial area and with a good environment."

"There are a lot of empty areas in the newly developed areas recently." Annette spread out the map and asked, "How big an area do you need?"

"There are more than 300 people from the Sky Fox Tribe. It's best to arrange them in one place." Wu Heng said.

"Sky Fox Tribe? Fox-man Tribe?"

"The fox people are the same race as the queen, the kind that have more tails as they level up." Wu Heng explained as he sat aside.

Annette circled an area on the map with her slender finger and said, "Master, this place is close to the market and well built. I originally wanted to sell it as a residential area, so it can be allocated to the Sky Fox Clan."

Wu Heng took a look and asked in mid-air: "My Lady, what do you think?"

The empress appeared in mid-air, "Very good, let's stay here."

"Okay." Wu Heng stood up, "I'll release them now, and you'll be responsible for registering and allocating housing."

"I understand!" Annette nodded with a smile.

Wu Heng walked straight to the backyard, raised his hand and activated the [Mansion Technique], and the villagers of the Sky Fox Clan came out one after another.

Looking at the surrounding environment, I felt nervous and curious.

The queen floated in front of them, gave a few brief instructions, and then asked Annette to take the people from the city hall to register the new residents.

After all the arrangements were made here, Wu Heng also released the [Teleportation Spell] and disappeared.

……

After returning to the island owner's mansion, Wu Heng chatted with the maids for a while. The maids glanced at the witch Viola who was sitting on a single chair nearby, then got up and went about their own business.

The rest left.

Viola took a deep breath, stood up suddenly and knelt on one knee, which frightened Wu Heng so much that the teacup in his hand shook.

The purple robe fell to the ground like flowing water, and Viola said in a firm voice: "My lord, I have broken through level 19. Thank you for the promotion plan you arranged for me."

I thought it was something else!
Wu Heng put down the teacup and looked at her calmly, "Get up, you are now a member of Treasure Island. Helping you to improve is also a boost to the island."

Besides, the two of them had agreed before that helping her become a hero was part of the conditions.

Viola was surprised that she broke through to the first level just after joining.

"Yes!" Viola stood up, still not sitting down.

Wu Heng smiled and said, "Didn't you go out for a walk these two days?"

Viola smiled bitterly, "After the card appeared on the island, I didn't dare to go out."

"Go to the consortium tomorrow and order a prop that can hide your face. It won't cost much." Wu Heng continued.

I had a 'Shadow Veil' before, but I left it to Wen Mansha.

"Yes, sir!" Viola nodded.

The room was quiet for a few seconds.

Wu Heng said, "Go train! Don't worry about your reputation."

"Okay!" Viola nodded again, bowed, and walked towards the training room.

Becoming a hero is just around the corner, and all she has to do is seize this opportunity and sprint with all her might.

……

Sat on the first floor for a while.

He drank the tea in the cup, stood up and walked upstairs.

He passed by the radio room and pushed the door open and walked in.

One by one, he picked up the notebook in front of the Skeleton Investigator and checked the contents.

Each of these records mentioned the Snake Emblem Consortium's sale of Treasure Island merchandise and the card collection craze that emerged in various locations.

It seems that all races approve of this form, and Treasure Island has once again become famous.

Continue to look at some various important content.

Among them, the association's records contain intelligence from the Celtic Kingdom, which has completed the royal family change and the situation is stable without major turmoil.

The Elves, the Supreme Council passed a new trade bill, lifting some export restrictions on rare materials.

Dwarves, the materials for Molten Core are complete, let the dwarf hero go back to preside over the casting work.

Then, he looked at the records intercepted from the Vatican.

The first ones are some materials exchanged from the association with merits, and the latter are some normal communications scattered around.

The most recent one mentioned that if the ritual was successful, there was no need to exchange materials further.

"ceremony……!"

Wu Heng looked at the content above, his eyes narrowed slightly, and subconsciously thought of Saidu's "resurrection".

Combined with the information obtained previously, it seems that the Holy See did get the rare object from the Celtic Kingdom and used it to help Saidu obtain a body.

The Church, which had once shouted and killed the undead when it saw them, did not kill 'Saidu' who had become a ghost this time, but helped him to come back to life.

According to Granda, helping Saidu survive is also to leave a way out for high-level professionals in the Holy See.

Who knows, will Wu Heng kill one of them next?

If the ghost survives, it can resurrect its body in Sayidu’s way.

Wu Heng had just closed the notebook and put it back in its place when the empress flew back from outside.

Said: "The tribesmen have already made arrangements, and they are very satisfied with the accommodation here."

Compared with the previous village, the environment here is many times better.

"I'm glad you're satisfied. Since we'll be close to each other in the future, you can take care of them too." Wu Heng said.

"Yes!" The queen nodded, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Wu Heng said.

The queen smiled and walked away through the roof.

Wu Heng also walked out of the room.

……

As the night deepens, moonlight shines through the gauze curtains, spreading a silver glow on the bed.

Wu Heng lay on his back on the bed, his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

The relationship between myself and the Empress has been greatly improved after this search for my tribe members.

The next step would be to wait for her to perfect the technique and see if he could practice it.

"It should be about the same!"

I am a hero now, and all the attributes of my body have basically reached the top level of all living beings. If I still can't practice it, then this technique is too harsh.

The main thing is to see whether what the Empress has written is complete. Don't let yourself go too far in practicing.

By that time, if the gods of the Vatican didn't come to kill him, he would have killed himself.

My thoughts turned and returned to the Vatican.

Judging from the current situation, whether there are still heroes in the Holy See, or whether Saidu can be successfully "resurrected", the threat to himself is not that big.

The only one who could threaten his life was the god of the church.

"I still need to speed up the collection of faith." Wu Heng muttered.

Apart from breaking through the heroic stage by himself, he couldn't think of any sure way to defeat the gods.

I just hope that the other party won't attack a small guy like me who has just become a hero.

According to the history obtained from the goddess, the Holy See has never been heard of. It may be a very ordinary small sect, or it may be the foreign god that Nuwa was guarding against when she repaired the sky.

After Nuwa disappeared while repairing the sky, the Church began to rise rapidly, destroying gods and religions and unifying the faith.

I always feel like there's a connection between the two.

"So, gods really exist."

"If Nuwa can come out to repair the sky, can gods also come directly to us?"

Making wild guesses.

Wu Heng took a deep breath, "Nuwa mended the sky! In the modern world, can we find some clues about Nuwa?"

I still have too little information about the gods.

Everything is inferred based on faith.

In the myths of the modern world, human beings were molded from mud by the goddess Nuwa, who is the creator of mankind.

If this history is true, then Nuwa's power among the gods would be even greater.

Being able to create living beings at will is something that death and resurrection cannot compare to.

If I could find some of Nuwa's rare objects or props, my strength would definitely be greatly improved.

"Tomorrow, let Li Yahong collect intelligence in this direction."

Dong dong dong~!

There was a knock on the door and Minnie's voice came in, "Master, we are done with the bath."

"Come in!" Wu Heng said.

The door opened and the four maids in the house came skipping in.

The four of them walked happily to the bed, lifted the quilt and crawled in.

"What were you thinking about just now, Master?" Minnie nestled in the crook of his left arm, looking up and blinking.

Wu Heng rubbed her wet hair and said, "I'm thinking about how to train you to be heroes."

"It's still early for us. We are not as good as Sister Viola." Minnie smiled.

"Take it easy, you'll be a hero sooner or later." Wu Heng said with a smile, and when he lifted the thin blanket, he saw Robbe lying on top of him with his little red tongue showing.

"Stop talking and go to bed!" Philippa yelled, throwing up the thin blanket. "First come, first served."

The others were also laughing and playing.

……

The next morning.

Wu Heng sat in the living room, took out his cell phone and dialed Lilith's number.

After switching to video mode, Lilith's cold face appeared on the screen.

"Yeah!" Lilith greeted coldly.

Wu Heng leaned back on the sofa. "So cold? I got up early to look for you."

Xiaoxiao controlled the puppet, leaned on the back of the chair and waved excitedly, "Sister Lilith! Good morning!"

Seeing Xiaoxiao, Lilith's expression softened visibly, "Morning, Xiaoxiao."

"Have you finished the work at the association?" Wu Heng got straight to the point.

"Yeah." Lilith nodded slightly, "I'll go to Treasure Island and stay there for a while in a few days."

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, "The house is ready for you, you are welcome anytime."

Lilith hummed softly, and then changed the subject, "The new religious leader 'Draco' has arrived at the headquarters to replace Saidu."

Wu Heng's expression remained unchanged, and he was not surprised by the news.

But he still asked, "Where's Saidu?"

"I have already returned to the temple." Lilith's eyes flickered. "Hadalai deliberately kept the news secret, fearing that you would cause trouble after you knew about it."

This just confirms the information intercepted from the radio yesterday. Saidu's reincarnation ceremony has indeed been completed.

"Is this newcomer also a hero?" Wu Heng asked.

Lilith gave him a long look and said, "He's a hero too."

The air stagnated for a moment.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and then asked, "How many heroes does the Holy See have?"

Lilith was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't know how many heroes there are, but I do have some information about this 'Draco'. He was a level 19 Knight of the Temple before, and this time he suddenly reached level 20."

Hearing these words, Wu Heng frowned instantly.
