Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1002: That’s what you said last time

Both sides fell into silence at the same time.

Lilith made it very clear that the Church needed a hero, so the previous level 19 Knight Guardian became a hero.

Wu Heng asked: "How did you get promoted? Any clues?"

It might be difficult to ask other heroes, but it is no problem for Lilith.

There are also conflicts between the vampires and the Church, as neither of them wants the Church to be too powerful.

"It's unclear for now." Lilith shook her head, her hair swaying slightly, "But the association has re-evaluated the strength of the Holy See."

In today's association, it seems that the elves have the upper hand, with two ruling heroes, and both of them have high prestige, and can mobilize resources far more than other heroes.

Although the Holy See is spread across countries and races, it gives people the illusion that it is gradually declining.

But this time, the appearance of the hero forced the rest of the association to pay attention to the Vatican.

It's really scary that heroes can appear at any time.

Wu Heng asked, "Is the leader of the new religion also a human?"

"Human race!" Lilith replied calmly.

"How are the people?" Wu Heng asked.

"He's quite calm and rarely voices his opinions in meetings, which is completely different from Saidu." Lilith paused. "In your words, he's quite low-key."

Low profile!

It could indeed be due to his personality. After all, he had just become a hero from a level 19 professional, so it was normal for him to behave cautiously and low-key.

But considering Saidu's reincarnation ceremony and some secret things happening in the Holy See, I feel more inclined to believe that the Holy See is carrying out some secret plan and does not want to cause any trouble.

"It's better to keep a low profile." Wu Heng said with a smile, "Let's live in peace."

Lilith glanced at him, "Your smile is so fake."

Wu Heng ignored her ridicule and asked, "Can the crimes of the Celtic royal family be made public now?"

"The royal family colluded with the evil cult and used forbidden rituals to prolong life." Lilith said in a cold tone, "Those powerful people dared to do anything to achieve eternal life."

If it wasn't for the Celtic Kingdom being mentioned, Wu Heng would have felt that he was talking about the eldest prince of the Yeko Kingdom.

What's wrong with these two human countries? They committed similar crimes.

They are all colluding with the evil cult, but the eldest prince’s goal is not to prolong his life, but to consolidate his position.

Without waiting for Wu Heng to speak, Lilith continued, "There's nothing strange about this. For the nobles of the human race, life span is their biggest obstacle. Every year, countless nobles of the human race contact the vampire race through various channels, hoping to become blood-lighters to prolong their lifespan."

Wu Heng was also aware of this, as he had helped Lilith get back the blood cup of the vampires.

Moreover, he had once thought that if his life came to an end and he still hadn't completed his promotion, he would transform himself into a corpse ghost.

Everyone is afraid of death, but the powerful have more resources to find solutions.

Wu Heng then asked, "Where's Luan? Was he arrested too?"

"He and Moffat are missing, and the association is looking for them," said Lilith.

Moffat is Luan's teacher and thinks highly of him, so he must be involved in this.

Moreover, according to the letter Luan wrote to him, he had already died at the hands of the Vatican.

With his skills, he has no right to fight the Vatican.

The two of them casually talked about Lu An, and Wu Heng then recounted how he met the Twelve Sacred Sect and killed them while they were protecting their religion.

Lilith raised her eyebrows and said, "I will inform the association east of the Celtic Kingdom to pay attention to this matter. You killed the guardian, so you can write a report in exchange for merit."

"Well, it's easy to say whether it's a merit or not, but I'm afraid it will cause some trouble." Wu Heng said seriously.

Lilith nodded, then asked in a puzzled tone, "What were you doing over there?"

"A friend's race built a small village over there and asked me to go over and take a look and move them to Treasure Island." Wu Heng explained roughly.

"Don't run around all the time. We don't know what the Holy See is planning!" Lilith warned.

From the words, one could also feel that the Vatican was planning something.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Wu Heng smiled and continued, "Call me if you have anything."

Lilith nodded, and just as Wu Heng was about to hang up the phone, Xiaoxiao came up and said, "Uncle, you're done talking. I'll talk to my sister for a while."

Then, he squeezed into the picture and said excitedly, "Sister, is there anyone collecting cards over there?"

Lilith's stern expression instantly melted, and the corners of her lips slightly raised, "I heard about Viola's card."

"Yes! In the tavern on the island, people are exchanging cards every day. It's very lively."

……

Wu Heng did not disturb the two people who were happily chatting, and stood up and walked towards the courtyard.

The breeze blew gently, the flowers and plants in the courtyard swayed, and tiny petals fell on the stone table.

Wu Heng sat down in the pavilion. Glenda was flipping through a book. Seeing him coming over, she asked, "Have you finished chatting with your 'girlfriend'?"

"What do you mean by little girlfriend?" Wu Heng picked up a petal and used it as a dart, flicking it aside. "Over at the association, the new religious leader has taken over, and he's also a hero."

"Tell me more about it."

Wu Heng repeated what Lilith said.

Granda pondered for a moment and said, "The power of the priests comes from the gods. Now this has been well verified. There is nothing strange about it. What we need to pay attention to now is the promotion method of the Holy See."

After a brief pause, he continued, "It is certain that the Holy See cannot produce heroes continuously. It may be due to religious restrictions or other reasons that keep the number of their heroes at a certain level. I speculate that this may be related to the four holy seats."

Wu Heng nodded, agreeing with this statement.

If heroes can be produced continuously, the Holy See will not be suppressed by the Association, and the battle with me will not be fought by just a few people coming together to kill me.

Glenda closed the book and continued, "It's a good thing for us that they keep a low profile now. We should speed up the construction of the church during this period, use all that can be used, and improve our faith."

Wu Heng sighed, "Being a hero is so tiring..."

Glenda chuckled, "Wait until you become a god."

"You said the same thing when I was level 18."

As they were talking, Xiaoxiao came running over with a cell phone in her hand, handed it to him, and said, "Uncle! Wait until Sister Lilith comes back and make a set of cards for us too!"

"Okay! Then during this time, think about what you want!" Wu Heng said with a smile.

"It's all in the head." Xiaoxiao pointed to her own head.

Wu Heng put away his phone and continued, "Go call back the Empress and Benny, let's go to the zombie world."

"Okay~!"

Xiaoxiao sat down on a stone bench nearby, separated from the puppet body, and turned into a ghost and flew away.

Wu Heng put away the doll and went upstairs to the study with Glenda.

Waited in the study for a while.

The empress and Benny returned from different directions.

"Are we going to that world again?" the queen asked casually.

"Go over and take a look, and then explain some things." Wu Heng replied.

The queen nodded and returned to her body with several ghosts.

Wu Heng opened the gate and walked in.

……

Walk out of the gate.

The cold air smelling of disinfectant blew in my face.

It's spring now, but compared to the weather in Treasure Island, it's still a bit cool.

This is still the monitoring room. The monitoring screen in front is flashing images. Several skeletons are sitting in front of the monitor, monitoring the target.

After Wu Heng released the ghost, he said, "Xiao Xiao, go call some skeletons over."

"Oh!" Xiaoxiao passed through the wall and left. When he came back, a large group of skeletons holding weapons walked in.

He opened the [Mansion Technique] and said to the inside: "Drag these people out."

The skeletons rushed into the 'mansion' and dragged out the members of the 'Twelve Holy Churches' inside.

During the days they were imprisoned, the skeletons guarding inside only fed them some water at most, and they were starving to death.

The level 18 guardian had his mouth and eyes sealed by Wu Heng, so he couldn't drink a single drop of water, but he was still alive.

Wu Heng waved his hand casually, and the other person's eyes and mouth opened. He wanted to say something, but he was too weak to speak.

"Take them all to the cell block, one cell each."

The skeletons dragged these people and walked straight out.

Xiao Xiao said, "Uncle, I'll go with you and take a look."

After saying that, he flew out.

Benny and Niangniang hesitated for a moment and then followed to watch the fun.

Wu Heng sat down in front of the surveillance camera and looked at the screen. There were many new prisoners in the cell, including blond-haired and blue-eyed Europeans and Americans, dark-skinned blacks, and Asian faces.

Needless to say, I guessed that these were prisoners sent by Li Yahong. When I came back last time, I had a plan to make serum, but I needed some people for the experiment, so I asked Li Yahong to find some serious criminals or doomsday bandits.

After these people were caught, they would have been executed, but sending them here can allow them to make use of their remaining energy.

He took back the target and pressed the button on the desk.

After a while, the door was pushed open and the Alchemist Skeleton walked in with a toolbox.

"Show me the record book."

The alchemical skeleton handed over the notebook, Wu Heng opened it, and Glenda also looked at the contents on his shoulder.

According to records, more than 70 people were sent by Li Yahong.

And in the experimental records.

The first batch of experimental serum was used after 20 survivors were injected with the virus, and no one survived.

The second batch used modified serum type 1, and 2 cases survived...

The third batch, improved type 2, 5 people survived...

There are only three experimental records. It seems that many people died in the previous experiments.

But judging from the records, it does work.

"Good!" Wu Heng returned the notebook to the skeleton, "Continue to optimize. If any materials are needed, you can list them in advance."

The skeleton nodded and saluted, then exited the room.

Glenda said, "The medicine for detoxifying corpse cores can work, is the serum so difficult to make?"

"One is to eat and digest, and the other is to directly inject the virus. There should be a difference! We don't understand the details." Wu Heng said helplessly.

Glenda nodded. "It will be quick at this rate. We will be able to produce the serum in half a month."

"Let's see!" Wu Heng said, taking out his cell phone and calling Li Yahong.

The call was connected, and Li Yahong's voice came out, "What's wrong?"

"Help me check something." Wu Heng went straight to the point.

"Well! Any instructions?" Li Yahong asked with a smile.

Wu Heng organized his words and said, "Help me collect some information about Nuwa, such as records of places she visited, or temples, ruins, etc."

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone.

After a few seconds, Li Yahong's voice was uncertain, "...Are you serious?"

"Very seriously." Wu Heng held the phone, "I'm investigating something, very important, take it seriously."

When Li Yahong heard the other party say it was very important, she became serious and said, "Okay, I'll start investigating later."

"Yeah." Wu Heng nodded, then asked, "How is the base doing recently?"

Li Yahong said: "There is no change. After the spring, everything will proceed according to the previously made plan."

"Just follow the plan."

The two exchanged a few words and then hung up the phone.

I hope to get some inheritance from Nuwa here.

At this time, the three ghosts of Xiaoxiao, Benny and Niangniang flew back.

"It's done!" Xiao Xiao pinched her waist, "Under the command of my sister, my aunt, and I, we put all the bad guys in cells. They are divided according to their levels. The higher the level, the closer to the front."

"Amazing!" Wu Heng praised casually, and then asked, "Among the remaining zombies, are there any level 20?"

“No!” Xiao Xiao shook her head, and then said: “Uncle, those people from the Church have turned into zombies, and their levels have dropped a lot. The highest one is only level 16.”

Wu Heng checked the surveillance footage, which showed the cell where the Vatican priests were previously held.

The five priests all turned into zombies, moving back and forth restlessly in the cell.

The previous highest level of archbishop has become level 16.

"It may have something to do with their profession, but it has nothing to do with anything." Wu Heng said.

"Oh, don't catch the priest next time. I feel like he's not that powerful after turning into a skeleton." Xiao Xiao muttered to the side.

"What if we have prisoners next time?"

"Send them to Rentam City to mine!"

The other ghosts nearby also smiled after hearing this.

Wu Heng glanced at the time, stood up and said, "Let's go to Treasure Island."

The ghost entered the body, opened the door and returned.

……

After returning to Treasure Island, Wu Heng transferred the two level 15 alchemy skeletons in his family to the zombie world.

Used to jointly develop antiviral serum.

Judging from the recorded data, the manufacture of serum has a clear direction, and all that remains is to continue research and development.

It shouldn't be difficult to make the finished product.

After arranging the skeletons, the queen took Xiaoxiao and Benny to the Sky Fox Clan.

Wu Heng also came down from upstairs.

"Master!" Robe, who was passing by, called out obediently.

"Call everyone over." Wu Heng said.

"Okay, Master!" Robbe took two quick steps and shouted, "Come here, Master wants to have a meeting."

In the training room and the courtyard, the maids, Philippa, and the witch Viola all came over.

Sit down around the sofa.

Wu Heng waved his hand on the table and several bottles of potions appeared in front of him. "This is a level three potion. Minnie, you four take it. I'll keep an eye on it for you. Viola, you just got here, so take the level one potion first."

"Okay, master!" Minnie and the others happily put them away.

After this period of time, the maids had almost no effect after taking level 2, so Wu Heng planned to have them start taking level 3.

As for the second-level potion, Wu Heng planned to arrange an auction and continue to sell it off.

The maids took so many potions, but only Minnie awakened her superpowers.

Can release flames.

The rest of the people had no effect, and it might be some 'passive' abilities, such as mental barriers, but they had their own professions and the maids did not participate in the battle, so it was difficult to detect.

Viola looked at the dozen or so bottles of medicine that were pushed over to her with a puzzled look in her eyes.

Minnie Ken explained considerately, "Sister Viola, haven't you heard of the physical potion from Treasure Island? At that time, a bottle sold for several thousand gold coins."

Viola's eyes narrowed, "What are these?"

"Ah! You have to drink the potion from the lowest level to the highest level." Robe also said.

Wu Heng nodded, "Minnie, you drink first, I'll help you watch, don't feel pressured."

"Okay, Master." Minnie glanced over here, uncorked the bottle without hesitation, and drank it all.

"Woo!"

The moment the medicine entered her throat, Minnie's whole body trembled violently and she curled up on the sofa like a shrimp.

Her skin quickly turned an abnormal purple-blue, like blood vessels all over her body. Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her nails dug deep into the leather of the sofa.

Viola stood up suddenly and looked at the scene in horror.

It felt like Minnie drank poison.

……

The residential area of ​​the Sky Fox tribe.

The island owner's carriage slowly stopped, and the wheels rolled over the stone road covered with fallen leaves, making a slight rustling sound.

Before the car door was opened, a group of newly arrived Sky Fox tribe members had gathered around.

He looked over here curiously. Judging from the appearance of the carriage, the people coming here were not ordinary people.

Click.

The car door opened slightly, and Xiaoxiao and Benny controlled the puppets and jumped down.

While saying something like 'This place is nice', he looked around.

Immediately afterwards, a noble figure stepped out of the carriage.

The queen was dressed in a dark blue brocade robe with dark gold embroidery. Nine fox tails stretched out behind her like a peacock spreading its tail, shining in the setting sun.

His steps were gentle and his movements were majestic.

The people of the Sky Fox Clan widened their eyes, not knowing who had said the word "big fox girl".

Everyone saluted in unison and shouted, "Big Fox Girl!"
