Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1077, Heavenly Destiny Golden Body

Beneath the chandelier, Shannara's slender fingers stroked her watch.

On one side of the original time dial is the compass dial, which is slightly smaller, but the direction it points to is extremely obvious.

In the current market, watches have become a best-selling product, but the main purchasing group is not only the powerful who use them to show their status, but more often civil servants use them in their daily work.

For example, alchemists use it to accurately calculate the time it takes to purify a potion, or for other special purposes that require precise timing.

However, when a compass function was added to the watch, its value reached a new breakthrough.

Near the Emerald Sea, sailors need clear direction guidance, and compass watches become indispensable tools.

Even if it is not sailing, this multifunctional watch can play an important role when combat professionals are adventuring in the wild or traveling long distances.

After all, a traditional compass is far less compact and sophisticated than this watch, and is extremely inconvenient to carry.

"What about the price? How is it determined?" Shannara quickly calmed down from her surprise and asked the key question.

Wu Heng smiled and said, "I think the price can remain the same, or even be lowered a bit. You can decide based on market demand when the time comes."

"Same price or lower?" Shannara raised her eyebrows, her tone tinged with doubt. "Wouldn't the customers who bought from us before feel like they've lost out?"

Adding new features and lowering prices will inevitably make old customers feel unbalanced.

Wu Heng calmly explained, "Ordinary nobles won't need the compass's effectiveness, and professionals who need to venture out might struggle financially, so the price can't be set too high."

"I understand." Shannara nodded. "I'll look into it and come up with a price."

Then, Wu Heng introduced new products such as pills for making psychotropic drugs and microscopes.

Shannella listened carefully and commented, "These are all very practical things. Ballpoint pens, watches, and pills can reach a wider range of people."

After a brief pause, he continued, "However, it will be quite difficult to make this exhibition reach the level of popularity of the last one. I'm considering including the radio as an exhibit. It will definitely cause a sensation then."

"Besides, it's no secret that all the major forces are already using the radio. Even if we don't sell it to the public for the time being, it can at least create a buzz and increase attention to Treasure Island and the exhibition."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows when he heard Shannara's suggestion.

Now that all communications on Treasure Island have been replaced with satellite phones, there is really no need for a radio station and it needs to be kept so strictly confidential.

Just like Shannara said, all the major races now know about the existence of the radio station.

He nodded in agreement and said, "That's a good idea. If the response is enthusiastic, we can consider selling it in the future, but the price will be higher. After all, at the association, we have always emphasized its preciousness."

Shannara smiled and said, "With the participation of the radio station, this exhibition will be more promising."

"Just go for it, we all support you." Wu Heng encouraged.

The other people in the family followed suit, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed.

After the exhibition was finalized, Wu Heng changed the subject and said, "I have to go out tomorrow."

Everyone looked up at him, and Shannara asked, "Is it because of the Twelve Heavenly Saints?"

"Well, I've found some clues and plan to take the initiative to solve the problem before they take any action." Wu Heng picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Then you won't be able to attend the exhibition?" Shannara asked softly.

No one was worried about Wu Heng's safety.

With his strength, even the Holy See was defeated by Wu Heng, let alone a cult organization wanted by the association.

Wu Heng smiled calmly, "I can't help you much with the exhibition. Viola is in charge of Treasure Island. You guys just handle the island's affairs as usual. Don't spread the news of my absence. There will be no problem."

"Okay," Shannara asked again, "When are you leaving?"

"We'll leave after training tomorrow morning." Wu Heng confirmed the plan.

"Be careful." Everyone warned in unison.

The conversation then turned to lighter matters.

Wu Heng took a few people to the training room for training, and then returned to the room to rest.

……

The next day, at the training ground in the west district of the city.

A blazing column of fire shot up into the sky, illuminating the surroundings in crimson.

Wu Heng sat cross-legged in the center of the storm, a huge vortex of energy formed around him, rushing into his body frantically.

His skin was as red as a branding iron, and mysterious runes appeared on his body, moving and flickering like a living thing.

As the runes on his body became more and more obvious, his body gradually became ethereal and turned into a blazing flame.

Even if he had used a carving knife to change the rules in advance, he still felt the pain of his soul being torn apart.

While Wu Heng gritted his teeth and persevered, he couldn't hide his joy in his heart.

This is about to break through.

The key to complete transformation!
Suddenly, the surrounding flames suddenly stagnated, and then as if compressed by an invisible force, they collapsed inward madly.

In the blink of an eye, the sea of ​​fire in the sky completely engulfed his body, leaving not even a trace of sparks.

Heaven and earth returned to silence, only Wu Heng was still sitting cross-legged in the center of the formation, with a faint red-gold light surrounding him.

Outside, the queen stood there, her eyes still solemn and shocked.

“He actually succeeded…”

"In this regard, you really have some talent."

……

Wu Heng sat cross-legged in the center of the formation. As the flames disappeared, a system prompt appeared in his ears.

[Unlocked Features: Heavenly Golden Body, born from fire.]

It worked!
Wu Heng was delighted and couldn't wait to open the panel to check the features.

【Golden Body of Destiny】: Skin as hard as bronze, immense strength, Constitution +70, Strength +50.

[Born from the Fire]: In addition to being penetrated by destiny, the limbs can be reborn through fire sacrifices, and the fire eggs of the black bird can be condensed, and can be resurrected with the help of the fire spirit.

Seeing the characteristic effect, Wu Heng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Needless to say, the effect of [Golden Body of Destiny] is a combination of the two characteristics of 'Xuan Niao Burning Pattern' and 'Evil Spirit Forging Bones'.

The skin's defenses are increased, while also providing immense strength.

This time, it was directly increased in attributes, instead of being like the Xuanniao Burning Pattern, which would only take effect when it was cast.

Add 70 points to Constitution.

The physical fitness of heroic melee professions cannot reach 70 points.

This body refining technique is terrifying. If you practice it successfully, you will have heroic-level combat power.

Follow the trend and look at your own attributes.

[Attributes: Strength 117, Agility 55, Constitution 129, Intelligence 63, Perception 55, Charisma 52.]

I rely on!

Strength and physique have changed so much.
As a mage, I am really making great progress in terms of strength and physique.

The focus is on the second characteristic [Born from the Fire], which is the characteristic that the Queen mentioned before.

The first is that except for the piercing of destiny, the limbs can be reborn through sacrificial fire.

This is of no use to me. Heroes can be reborn. Not to mention limbs, even if the head and the whole body are lost, they can grow back to the original place.

By condensing the black bird fire egg, one can be reborn with the help of the fire spirit, which also coincides with the hero's physique.

In fact, "Rebirth from the Ashes" is the biggest effect of the third stage, but compared to heroes, it really has little effect.

"What are you doing in there? Come out now!"

The Queen's voice came from outside the formation.

Wu Heng stood up, dusted himself off, and strode out.

"Successful?" The empress looked him up and down, took the towel handed to her by the skeleton, and gently brushed the dust off his back.

"Yes, the third stage is complete." Wu Heng nodded and then asked, "Which part of the body does destiny refer to?"

The lady smiled and said, "Didn't Xiaoxiao always praise you for being a college student? You don't even know this?" "Colleges don't teach this."

"Heaven's destiny is in the body, referring to the heart." The empress explained, then asked, "How do you feel?"

Wu Heng took the towel and wiped his sweat as he answered, "I haven't had time to experience it yet, but my own defense and strength have definitely increased a lot."

As he spoke, he moved his arms, and the lines of his muscles were clearly visible in the sunlight, full of strength.

Strength is 117. Among all the heroes, my strength should be the highest.

Now, even if he returns the rare object [Holy Ark] to the Holy See, Wu Heng is not worried about any danger at all.

Except for the other party's gods.

"No rush!" The Queen smiled and threw the towel to the skeleton beside her. "Aren't we going to deal with the Twelve Heavenly Saints? This is a good time to give it a try."

"Let's go, it's time for us to go back and prepare." Wu Heng put on his clothes.

The empress placed her fingers on his arm, released the [Teleportation Spell], and the two of them disappeared.

……

Inside the island owner’s mansion.

The women in the family, as well as Xilagui and Shi Yali, were sitting in the living room chatting.

Seeing Wu Heng and the Empress come in, several people immediately stood up to greet them.

"When do we leave?" Shannara spoke first, with concern in her eyes.

"Just take a shower and leave." Wu Heng looked at Xi Lagui, "Where's your mother?"

"He's still staying at my house. He said he won't go back until the exhibition is over." Xilagui raised her head, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.

Wu Heng hasn't been alone with his two sisters for a long time since his mother came to the island.

"How's the house selection going?" Wu Heng continued to ask.

"I've found a set I'd like, but I haven't finalized it yet!" said Xilagui.

Shi Yali said on the side, "There's no need to buy it. She can't live here for more than two days. We'll try to persuade her when we get back."

Wu Heng smiled and said, "If you like it, tell Annette and make the deal right away. They're all our own property. If you don't like it, we can change it later."

Annette smiled and replied, "Yes, Master."

"Thank you!" Xilagui thanked her shyly.

Shi Yali also cast a gentle look at him.

"Why are we talking about this as a family?" Wu Heng continued, "I'm going out soon, so I'll leave the island to you."

"Don't worry!" Xilagui nodded.

"Okay, I'll go take a shower first and then leave after lunch." Wu Heng said, turning around and going upstairs.

The warm water washes over the body, washing away the fatigue after training.

When I changed my clothes and went downstairs, the restaurant was already filled with fragrance.

Everyone sat around the long table and chatted casually about the exhibition.

After dinner, Wu Heng put the prepared luggage into the space ring and went to the courtyard to say goodbye to everyone.

"Be careful." Shannara straightened his collar.

Wu Heng put on the [train conductor's hat], and as the whistle sounded, the ghost train appeared out of thin air.

He waved goodbye to everyone, boarded the train, and disappeared.

……

A few days later, at the exhibition site.

In front of the magnificent exhibition hall, colorful advertising banners swayed gently in the breeze.

Right in front of the building, a huge screen is playing promotional videos for various products in a loop. The modern layout, the surrounding environment, and the local clothing make it look very special.

There was a crowd of people at the entrance and a lot of noise. The association guards and skeleton soldiers were on high alert, maintaining order at the scene.

In the exhibition hall, the silverware is glittering, the carpets are exquisite, and the porcelain is as smooth as jade. Visitors keep looking around, full of curiosity about their surroundings.

But the most eye-catching thing is the central exhibition area on each floor.

Central exhibition area on the first floor.

"This is called a ballpoint pen, and it's the latest improvement made by the island owner." The wood elf tour guide wiped the sweat from his forehead, his voice trembling slightly with excitement.

Uncap the pen, draw a smooth line on the paper, and then introduce, "No ink required, it's ready to use right away, and you won't smudge the paper anymore!"

A curious dwarf reached out and touched the words he had just written, his eyes widening. "It's really done!"

Then the crowd began to discuss.

"Is the fountain pen eliminated just like that?"

"Oh my god, our Chamber of Commerce hasn't even managed to imitate a fountain pen yet!"

“You can put the envelope directly into the letter now!”

"Master Wu Heng is forcing the other chambers of commerce into a desperate situation!"

The guide struck while the iron was hot, "We also have watches with a new compass function..."

"What? The watch has also been upgraded?"

"Damn it! I have to buy this..."

……

Exhibition area on the second floor.

The alchemists gathered around the new pills, microscopes, and various instruments, discussing the matter.

“Sure enough, even psychotropic pills are being mass-produced!”

"Look at the design of this distiller, it's so ingenious!"

"Although other associations can also do it, the quality and price can't compare to Treasure Island!"

Many people took out paper and pens and started painting with various tools.

Record all the appearance and functions.

Exhibition area on the third floor.

"This is a radio station that can realize long-distance real-time communication. For example, if you are in the elf tribe and want to contact your friends in the dwarf tribe, just pick up the microphone and you can communicate directly." As soon as the tour guide finished speaking, the scene instantly boiled over.

Everyone's eyes widened.

Is there such a thing?
If it were any other chamber of commerce, they might still be skeptical, but since this was placed at the exhibition by Treasure Island, it must be true.

"I know this. Our race has one. It's used to contact the association's headquarters."

“No wonder news has spread so quickly recently!”

"Is this a magical item? What are the side effects?"

"It's not a rare item. Both the elves and the dwarves have it. How can it be a rare item?"

"When it's released, we'll reserve one, no matter how much it costs."

"Yes, our Chamber of Commerce also wants to reserve one, no, two!"

The entire third floor was like a boiling pot, extremely noisy.

……

Outside the venue

The Wood Elf reporter extended the microphone to a dwarf who was hurriedly leaving the venue. "Sir, could you share your impressions of the exhibition?"

The dwarf was about to lose his temper when he saw his image being projected on the giant screen. He immediately forced a bright smile and said, "Great!"

After saying that, he ran out without looking back, and was going to write a letter to report back what happened at the exhibition as soon as possible.
