Chapter 1015, New Flag Bearer

The flames in the furnace gradually died down, and the heat twisted and dissipated in mid-air.

Wu Heng stood up and walked out. The runes on his body fell off as he walked. The skeletons waiting outside passed by with tools in hand and began to clean the place.

Not far away, Viola was still sitting cross-legged in the flames, her long brown hair flying, black bird patterns on her skin, and she was continuously absorbing energy from the surroundings.

Walking into the living room, the empress manipulated the puppet to bring a towel, "How are you today?"

"The progress is quite smooth, but we haven't broken through to the second stage." Wu Heng picked up the towel and wiped the dust off his body.

"Everything goes well, and with your speed of cultivation, it should be quick, so don't worry." The empress said aside.

Xiao Xiao floated aside, looking curious, "Aunt is so gentle today!"

Penny followed up, "Maybe I'm more optimistic about your uncle."

"What are you looking forward to?"

"I don't know, but they have a better relationship now."

Xiao Xiao followed up and said, "I thought my aunt also fell in love with my uncle!"

Glynda looked away from the book in her hand, "Your address could easily be misunderstood."

The queen rolled her eyes at the three ghosts who were 'talking' about people in front of her, and said unhappily, "Are you prejudiced against me? My attitude was very bad before?"

Xiaoxiao looked into the air and refused to answer.

Minnie the bunny came over and said, "Master, the bath water is ready."

"Okay!" Wu Heng nodded, and then said to the ghosts, "We are going to go out later, Xiaoxiao, don't run around."

"Oh well, then I don't plan to go out either." Xiao Xiao said.

Wu Heng went upstairs to take a shower while the others continued chatting.

After washing up, I returned to the study. The four ghosts were doing their own things in the room.

He wiped his hair briefly and said, "Let's go to the zombie world and come back in the evening."

The four ghosts flew back to his body.

Wu Heng opened the gate and walked in.

……

Zombie world.

Walking out of the door, the monitoring room was a little dim.

After releasing the ghosts, Xiao Xiao said directly: "I'm going to see if the zombies have upgraded."

After saying that, he flew out with Benny.

The empress followed him and said, "If you have the ability to see levels, get me one if you have the chance."

Wu Heng said: "I have already informed the material caravan on the island. Once the necessary materials are delivered, we can proceed with the ceremony. Don't worry..."

"Well, that's good as long as there is an arrangement." The Queen nodded.

Wu Heng had told her about this ability before, but she didn't take it seriously.

It would be much more convenient to go to the temple this time if you could see the target's level, instead of having to judge the position by the other person's clothing.

Of course, the materials needed for the ceremony still need to be prepared in advance.

Wu Heng sat down in front of the surveillance screen, with the cold light reflected on his face, and glanced roughly at the images on the monitor.

He picked up the phone and dialed Li Yahong's number.

"Hello?" After the phone rang twice, Li Yahong's voice came.

Wu Heng said: "It's me! How are you doing recently?"

"We are all fine. Sister Zhao has been trying to lose weight recently... Wait a moment at the base. I'll check the records."

There was the sound of shuffling papers from the other side, and then he said, "In the base, all industrial resumption plans have been completed, and all current industrial needs can be met."

"The second one is Gao Rong. The Jackdaw's Cry project has completed the disassembly work. Now it can complete the two methods of 'hypnotic infrasound' and 'thermic bomb' separately. The effect of hypnotic infrasound has been enhanced by 20 times. Now it is developing the launch method, aiming at long-range and short-range missile warhead launch."

There was the sound of flipping pages again. Li Yahong continued, "The last one is about the serum. The Dawn Alliance conducted a random inspection experiment. Each base sent five survivors of the experiment. During the experiment, the five people were injected with the serum within 30 seconds after being injected with the virus, and all survived."

"The success of the experiment has silenced all those who were naysayers. Qi Hancai has been discussing your promotion of the Chosen One and the Savior these days. I think there will be results soon."

Wu Heng listened carefully and waited for the other party to finish everything.

The Jackdaw's Cry project is a weapon blueprint that Wu Heng obtained from Russia. When he went to the military factory three months ago, he had already seen the experimental results.

The effect was quite good, but Wu Heng felt that it was a bit redundant to hypnotize the target first and then kill it with high temperature of aluminum thermite.

So it was divided into two types.

One is the normal Jackdaw Cry, hypnosis plus thermite bomb, and the second is separate, hypnosis alone or thermite bomb alone.

Now it seems that the progress is going smoothly, and we have started to work on the final vehicle matching.

The third point is serum and publicity.

It sounds like the Dawn Alliance has conducted on-site experiments, but that’s actually nothing, the effect of the serum is real.

On-site experiments are also a good thing, as they can make more people believe.

What follows is the promotion of his identity as the "Chosen One".

There have been many speculations about Wu Heng before, so it shouldn’t be difficult to promote him as the Chosen One.

"How effective is the publicity?" Wu Heng asked again.

Li Yahong said: "It has already spread on the forum and is still under discussion. I feel that it should not be a problem to promote it in various bases."

"Speed ​​up the progress, put some pressure on those bases, and don't be so easy to talk to." Wu Heng said.

"Okay!" Li Yahong agreed, and then seemed to suddenly think of something, "There is also a religion in the West, preaching on the world channel."

"A Western sect?"

"A sect?" Li Yahong repeated, and then continued, "It's called the Sun Cult. They also promote the idea of ​​being a savior, but more people curse them than believe in them. They say they won't be seen in the end of the world. Now that they've stabilized, they say they are the savior."

When she spoke the latter part, there was a hint of smile in Li Yahong's tone.

At the end of the world, the environment was harsh and food was scarce.

People need spiritual sustenance and hope that God will save them.

But now the situation is gradually stabilizing, food is sufficient, and the environment is safe. If you suddenly say that it is you who saved the world, aren't you asking for trouble?
Moreover, this sect is different from Yama Palace, which has always maintained its popularity in the world channel.

Supplying food to the world, establishing a world trading market, and later developing serum.

There is some basis for calling him the savior.

This Sun Cult relies solely on its mouth.

On Wu Heng's side, after listening to the Sun Cult, his brows slightly frowned.

Asked: "The one in the Vatican?"

"No! I'm from a small country. I don't care much about the specific situation. It just popped up suddenly." Li Yahong replied.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "Ask around and listen to what their teachings say."

"Okay, I'll pay attention to it then." Li Yahong agreed.

Wu Heng continued, "By the way, you can pick up the Corn Swordmaster No. 2 that I asked you to send out last time."

"I'll arrange for someone to pick you up and take you to the prison."

"Ok!"

After discussing the main things, the two continued to chat about things at the base.

Then he hung up the phone.

……

Behind them, Xiaoxiao and Benny had returned. Several ghosts gathered together, looking at the content on the forum on their mobile phones.

Videos and photos can now be posted in the forum.

Gradually returning to the era of short videos. Wu Heng saw that Xiao Xiao didn't come to talk to him about the zombies, so there shouldn't be any zombies that have reached level 20 yet.

I also opened the forum and looked at the content above.

One person with four souls waited until three o'clock in the afternoon.

Wu Heng stood up and said, "Let's go home!"

After the four souls flew back to the body, they opened the door and walked in.

……

Return to Treasure Island.

Xiaoxiao controlled the puppet and ran down from upstairs in a bird-like pose.

Wu Heng followed behind him and shouted, "Run slower, don't fall."

The figure had disappeared, leaving Xiaoxiao's nonchalant reply, "I'm already level 20."

Walking down the stairs, Minnie smiled and said, "Master, dinner is ready, you can eat now."

"Okay!" Wu Heng walked towards the restaurant.

The rest of the family also came out of the training room.

The training suit was soaked with sweat and stuck to the skin, outlining the different body shapes, but each one had smooth muscle lines.

After a simple wash, the women sat down at the dining table and started eating.

Just ate some simply.

Wu Heng asked, "Viola, how's your training going recently?"

Viola sat on the right side, next to Minnie. She paused for a moment with the spoon in her hand, then answered, "I can feel my strength improving. It shouldn't take long before I can level up."

"Keep working hard!" Wu Heng continued, "The association still owes me some merits. If you reach hero status before the merits are exchanged, I will give you all the merits in exchange for the items and weapons you need."

Viola's eyes lit up. What a heroic feat.

And, that sounds like a lot.

"Thank you, sir. I will work harder." Viola stood up again to express her gratitude.

Philippa said, "They're all given to Viola, so what do we do when we get the hero?"

"Why does it feel like what you said is about dividing the family property?" Wu Heng said unhappily.

Shannella picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said with a smile, "Philippa, think about it this way. By then, we two heroes will have more and more rare items and props. By then, we don't have to become heroes to get many rare items."

"That's right!" Philippa smiled.

As they continued to eat, Wu Heng began to ask the others about their levels.

……

In the study room.

"The dream channel is open. If Wu Heng comes back, please tell him for me." said the Queen.

Glenda nodded, "Okay, be safe."

After the two finished talking, the empress disappeared.

When he appeared again, he saw Liz sitting alone on a weathered limestone, her thin clothes sticking to her body, she was thin, and her eyes were dull, like a dead person.

"The association's doctor said, the child is gone." Liz's voice was as light as a wisp of smoke.

The empress walked over and sat down next to her. "Do you understand what happened?"

"The ritual failed. I can't give birth to the Holy Son. The Church wants to punish me..." Liz still lowered her head. "I know it was you who asked the association to keep me."

The queen hesitated for a moment, "Do you want to hear the truth?"

The queen tilted her head, "At least you can know who wants you to live and who is harming you."

Liz was silent for a long time before she said slowly, "Go ahead, I want to hear it."

……

Day 2.

Wu Heng had just finished strengthening his bones with evil spirit, and his bones were still feeling a burning pain.

After taking a shower and coming downstairs, the phone on the table started ringing.

After the call was connected, Shi Yali's capable voice came from the receiver, "Sir, the new flag bearer has arrived and wants to visit you."

Just by listening to the tone of voice, you can tell there is a stranger around.

"Okay, I'll be there now." Wu Heng said, and the person on the other end hung up the phone.

Minnie walked in from outside, holding some cut fruit in her hands, "Master is going out?"

"Well, let's go to the association." Wu Heng took a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth. "The new flag bearer is here, so it's a good opportunity to talk to Xi Lagui about the things on the island."

Minnie nodded and helped him put on his coat neatly.

After Wu Heng got dressed, he used [Teleportation] to leave.

When he appeared again, he had already arrived at the courtyard of the deacon's residence. He entered the association from the back door, walked through the corridor, and went straight to the study.

I knocked on the door lightly, and heard a response from inside, then I opened the door and walked in.

Pushing the door open, the study was filled with soft light.

In addition to the two elf sisters, sitting on the sofa was a dwarf wearing a gorgeous purple dress and a purple slim dress.

Wu Heng paused, then raised his eyebrows, "Sim?"

He still had some impression of the dwarf in front of him.

An 18th-level investigator who previously investigated the disappearance case in Netale City.

Upon seeing Wu Heng, Sim immediately jumped down from the sofa and performed a standard dwarf chest-touching salute. His voice was as loud as if he was giving a speech, "It's great to see you again, respected chief! Sim Cox sends his regards, and I wish you a happy mood every day!"

"Nice to meet you too, Sim." Wu Heng also smiled.

Xim also felt Wu Heng's enthusiasm and said respectfully, "Thank you, sir."

The two of them took their seats.

Shi Yali brought over a cup of tea and then returned to her seat.

Xi Lagui said: "The headquarters has issued a transfer order. Mr. Sim will serve as the new flag bearer of the Emerald Sea."

Sim immediately straightened his back and said seriously, "Please take good care of me, Lord Chief and Deacon Xilagui!"

Perhaps because of the elf flag bearer last time, the person transferred this time was not only someone Wu Heng was familiar with, but also an investigator.

Normally, investigators are clerical staff in the association and are more likely to perform auxiliary work.

This time he was directly assigned to be the flag bearer.

Wu Heng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "We are all working for the association, so it is only natural that we should take care of each other."

"Yes, yes!" Sim also laughed.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, completing the process of meeting the leader.

Sim tactfully stood up and said goodbye, and followed Shi Yali to see the dormitory. He had just arrived, so he had to settle down first before finding a permanent place to live.

After the door was closed, Xi Lagui asked curiously, "There has been thick smoke billowing from the direction of the island owner's mansion these days. What are you burning in broad daylight?"

"Practice skills." Wu Heng remained calm.

"Don't fool me!" Xi Lagui said in disbelief, "Do you really think I've never seen the world? What skill do you have to set fire every day?"

Wu Heng said: "I will take you to see it tomorrow, and you can practice it too."

Seeing that he really didn't seem to be joking, Xi Lagui asked, "Is this true?"

"Really." Wu Heng added, "You can come at night. The cat at home can dance. I'll let it perform for you."

"When did you get a cat?"
