Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.
Chapter 1103: The Age of Universal Career Change
Chapter 1103: The Age of Universal Career Change
"The young man who finally became a god must be the child you rescued before, otherwise he would not have let you go in the end." Catwoman Robert said loudly.
Then, he continued to speculate, "When he was a child, he was able to release the plague. The villagers buried him before because he infected the entire village with the plague."
Philippa gasped, "In other words, the subsequent disaster was because you saved this child. If you hadn't saved him, the plague wouldn't have spread across the countries, and so many people wouldn't have died."
Everyone involved in sorting out the plot was stunned.
In other words, what was originally thought to be a good thing turned out to be the cause of the deaths of countless people.
Good intentions can lead to bad results. What an irony of fate!
Wu Heng listened to the conversation between the two and turned his attention back to the chessboard.
The 'agreement' between myself and the chessboard has been reached.
The chessboard provided information about the God of Plague in the form of a story, and Wu Heng also provided a ghost for it to absorb.
Lilith, Viola and the wood elf sisters all looked at Wu Heng at the same time, with questioning eyes.
Wu Heng pondered for a moment, then looked at the ghost host, whose figure was gradually becoming illusory, and said, "I am very satisfied with the plot this time. Next time, I will prepare more 'sincerity', hoping to get more plots involving gods."
The ghost did not answer, and gradually faded into the air, and the dim light on the chessboard also completely dimmed.
Then the chessboard was put away by Viola, the long table was carried away, and the maids brought tea.
Wu Heng and others sat down in the living room and continued to talk about this matter.
Lilith asked, "Do you think this plot helps you?"
Wu Heng picked up the teacup and took a sip. "It helps! If the plot in the game is true, it proves that ordinary people have the opportunity to become gods."
After a slight pause, he continued, "Don't you feel that the plague mentioned in the plot, when it swept across the countries, is very similar to the current situation in my world?"
Especially the line "corpses piled up like mountains, wailing everywhere", which is like a true portrayal of this world.
Everyone's eyes were stern.
Indeed, the Plague God's path to godhood is quite similar to Wu Heng's current situation.
However, the zombie virus was not released by Wu Heng, but he became the leader in the hearts of mankind as a savior.
The wood elf Sylvain said, "Could it be that the story was made up by that ghost, based on this world?"
"It's possible, but there's no way to verify it!" Wu Heng said helplessly.
Although the authenticity of this information cannot be verified, under the current circumstances, I do not have a better way to obtain information from the gods.
Lilith pondered for a moment, then continued, "Judging from the timeline of the story, he wasn't very old when he became a god. He still looks like a young man. After becoming a hero, he gained fanatical followers and reached the god level... After becoming a hero, he most likely reached the path to godhood."
"Yeah! I think so too!" Wu Heng nodded.
The two of them analyzed calmly, and Viola and the wood elf sisters on the opposite side had their eyes flashing, as if they had caught a glimpse of a secret that was previously difficult to reach.
It sounds like the next step is to become a god.
"What are your plans next?" Lilith asked.
Wu Heng frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Next, I need to ask Qi Pan how to kill another god, or how to improve the god's combat ability."
"Do you still have ghosts?" Lilith asked.
"There aren't any at the moment, but it shouldn't be hard to find some." Wu Heng continued drinking his tea, then said, "Do you think this ghost chessboard, which implies absorbing ghosts, has some other purpose?"
"It must be helpful to him, and it has to be within the rules. Otherwise, he wouldn't want the ghost to absorb it so much." Lilith analyzed.
"Don't feed it too much, it will cause us trouble again!" Philippa leaned on the side and said casually.
"That shouldn't be possible! The improvement of ghosts cannot be achieved with just one or two, and even if there really is some conspiracy, we have the ability to deal with it." Lilith said.
Wu Heng nodded: "What Lilith said makes sense."
Several people discussed for a while.
The women gathered together again and talked in low voices about what had just happened.
……
Even as dusk deepened, the living room remained brightly lit.
Wu Heng sat alone on one side, pondered for a moment, took out his cell phone and dialed Li Yahong's number.
After a few beeps, the phone was picked up, and a familiar voice came from the other end, "Hello~? Did you miss me?"
There were faint sounds of clinking bowls and chopsticks and chewing. It seemed that she was having lunch.
According to the time difference, it should be noon in Xinfu City now.
"I've thought about it." Wu Heng responded in a low voice.
"What do you think?" Li Yahong asked in a playful tone, as if one could see her raising her eyebrows and laughing.
Wu Heng coughed lightly and glanced at the others in the hall calmly, "There are people around here, don't make a fuss."
Li Yahong immediately stopped teasing and turned her voice into a competent one: "What are the instructions, Chief?"
Apparently, he thought that the "someone" Wu Heng mentioned was referring to other personnel at the base.
Wu Heng didn't explain much and asked directly, "How's the discussion going on with the matter I mentioned to you last time about the Lingqi Sect increasing its number of followers?"
Li Yahong's tone became serious. "We've discussed this before. If we want to quickly attract non-believers to join the church, the most effective way is to provide them with tangible benefits."
After a brief pause, he continued, "Distributing supplies alone is just a formality. What's more important is to make them believe that joining the church will lead to a better future."
With a sigh, "Sister Zhao and I are currently thinking of providing assistance to the devout believers in the church to awaken their special abilities. Special abilities are still very attractive to survivors."
Wu Heng thought about it, but couldn't think of a good solution. "Let's refine it in this direction first."
"Okay!" Li Yahong agreed.
Wu Heng continued to ask, "Are there still ghosts and such everywhere now?"
"Yes, we've been reporting it all the time. Those haunted areas have been designated as quarantine zones. With the current number of survivors, there's no need to confront those places head-on."
"Please send me a copy of the detailed location and information."
"I'll send it later."
Shortly after the call ended, the phone screen lit up and Li Yahong had sent the coordinates of ghost activities in various countries.
Wu Heng took a quick look and put his phone away temporarily.
……
Lilith leaned against the soft couch, her long legs crossed, and asked languidly, "What's wrong?"
Wu Heng naturally placed his hand on her leg, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the texture of the fabric, and replied, "It's still about the believers. I want to expand the scale as soon as possible, so that I can break through the current stage and go back to pick up Xiaoxiao and the others."
Lilith raised her eyebrows slightly. "What difficulties did you encounter? Tell me about it."
Wu Heng briefly recounted the discussion just now.
After listening to this, Lilith said calmly, "What's so difficult about this? You've made the matter of the professional scroll public, promising that steadfast believers are eligible to practice it. Isn't that much more reliable than your supernatural powers?"
Her beautiful eyes flickered as she clamped her legs slightly tighter around his restless hand. She continued, "Judging from the responses on the forum, the people of your world also have a strong desire for 'cultivation' and 'power'. This method will definitely work."
Wu Heng's eyes lit up. This was indeed a breakthrough.
The class scrolls weren't widely promoted before for two reasons: first, modern weapons would be more useful in the apocalypse; second, my level was low at the time, and I was afraid the secret of the class scrolls would be leaked and have consequences for me.
But the current situation has basically stabilized.
A few days ago, the video of the wood elf sisters killing the corpse king caused quite a stir. Now, throwing it out with the professional system as bait should have a good effect.
"It was fine before, but now there are no professional scrolls!" Wu Heng said.
"You can't expect all the believers to learn! How could we possibly take care of so many people?" Lilith took out several scrolls for various professions from her space ring. "I have some here. Give them to some people first. The rest will go through selection or faith tests. By the time we return, we'll have the professional scrolls."
"You're still the best!" Wu Heng pulled his hand out, picked up the scroll and put it into the ring.
Wait until it gets late.
Everyone returned to their rooms one after another.
Wu Heng did not go back to rest. He released the [Teleportation Technique] and went to the training ground to continue practicing the fourth stage of the "Creation Sutra".
……
The next day, South Korean airport.
The plane landed smoothly on the runway and the gangway slowly docked.
Wu Heng was the first to get off the plane, followed closely by the two wood elf sisters on his left and right. They were both wearing elven leather armor, with weapons hanging from their waists. Their emerald green eyes were like frost as they scanned the surroundings.
A lot of people had already gathered at the airport exit. When they saw the trio from afar, many of them started taking pictures.
Qi Hancai and several of her subordinates hurried over and said swiftly, "The press conference venue is ready. Would you like to rest first or go straight over?"
"Let's get started." Wu Heng said calmly.
"Okay, this way, please." Qi Hancai stepped aside to lead the way, adding in a low voice, "I've arranged for a makeup artist, and I need to change into an outfit more suitable for the occasion."
"Do you still need to put on makeup?" Wu Heng was stunned.
"After all, it's a live broadcast for everyone, so appearance is very important. Have you ever seen any important person appear on camera without being well-groomed?" Qi Hancai smiled, but her tone was uncompromising.
Wu Heng said no more and nodded in agreement.
Soon, he walked into a bright dressing room, freshened up briefly, changed into a dark robe embroidered with silver thread, then walked into the studio and sat in front of the camera.
The huge prompt screen lit up, the red light flashed, and the recording began.
Wu Heng looked up at the camera, smiled gently, and spoke slowly.
"My fellow believers, my fellow countrymen."
"As I stand here today, I see the once-thriving steel jungle reduced to shattered ruins, the fertile land that once nurtured life now covered in scorch marks... Deformed zombies roam the wilds, and the future holds perhaps even more unknown dangers."
"..."
"To survive, you need the strength to break through desperate situations! To stay alive, you need a body that can withstand disasters."
"Today, in the name of the leader of the Lingqi Sect, I announce to the world that we have mastered an ancient technology that can create a professional scroll that allows ordinary people to gain extraordinary powers."
"It will grant you a stronger physique, allowing you to break beast armor with a punch and cut thorns with a blade. It will also make you as swift as the wind, giving you speed beyond that of an ordinary human."
"Even if you once had nothing, the scroll will open up a unique path for you, allowing you to find your place in the apocalypse and have the confidence to survive."
"Any believer who sincerely joins my Lingqi religion will have the opportunity to receive this gift."
……
At this moment, the forum live broadcast interface has already been flooded with massive barrages!
"Holy crap! Is the era of universal job transfer really here? Are online novels translating into reality?"
"Those elf sisters are definitely the scroll users! Confirmed!"
"Believers can receive it? Is it too late for me to join the church now?"
"Who is stronger than the mutant?"
"Nonsense! Have you ever seen a psychic who can kill a zombie king in close combat alone?"
"I want to change my job! I want to contract a succubus!"
The number of people watching the live broadcast was rising at an alarming rate, the barrage of comments was blocking the screen, and the scene was boiling.
……
Inside the studio, Wu Heng's voice remained steady. "This scroll is open to all, regardless of gender, age, or background. You can choose a career related to your past skills, or you can follow the path of your heart."
"Some may ask, can this power truly be trusted? I solemnly promise that all scrolls have been repeatedly verified to ensure they are free of danger and side effects. The Lingqi Sect and the Yama Palace are willing to endorse this, so please rest assured."
He took a deep breath, his eyes sharp.
"My fellow countrymen, the end times will never show mercy to the weak, but spiritual enlightenment will surely protect everyone who is willing to stand up and fight."
"The church will dispatch instructors to provide systematic guidance to believers based on their different professions and advancement stages."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and gestured to the side.
The wood elf sisters, wearing silver-patterned robes of the Lingqi Sect, stepped into the camera and simultaneously drew a sharp and graceful sword flower. The sword light flowed and shifted, and their posture was as graceful as a painting.
"Those with exceptional talent can even receive personal instruction from our Lingqi Sect's 'Goddess of War'."
"Starting tomorrow, the Lingqi Cult will officially count its followers and arrange for job transfers for those who meet the requirements."
"As long as there is still one person struggling in suffering, the Lingqi Cult will not stop producing scrolls. As long as there is an inch of land worth protecting, we will not give up our belief in saving the world."
"At this moment, I invite more people to join the Lingqi Church, cast aside the confusion about the future, and hold on to the power."
"The light of spiritual enlightenment will never go out."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the photographer, who nodded, signaling the end of the recording.
……
Qi Hancai came over, holding a tablet in her hand and said, "The effect is very good. The popularity of the video now seems to have returned to the level before the disaster."
Wu Heng took it and took a look, and the two sisters behind him also looked out.
"Well, as long as the effect is good, we will select a group of people first to transfer jobs and receive training." Wu Heng said directly.
"Okay!" Qi Hancai nodded and then asked, "Next, I'll arrange accommodation for you?"
"I have arranged a schedule and need to go there to clean up the ghosts. I'll do that next time." Wu Heng said with a smile.
Qi Hancai sighed and nodded.
Dong dong dong~!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Qi Hancai's secretary walked in quickly. He saluted Wu Heng first, and then said to Qi Hancai, "Deputy Chief, representatives from the major bases are here and want to see you."
"What's the matter?" Qi Hancai guessed something in his mind, but still asked.
The secretary said, "It should be the matter of the career scroll that was just broadcast live. All the bases are asking about it, and it seems that they want to be the first to use it."
"You're quite good at seizing opportunities." Qi Hancai left with his secretary.
Wu Heng used teleportation and brought the two wood elf sisters into the cabin of the plane.
Take off directly to the location where the ghost was recently recorded.
