Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.
Chapter 965: The Master is Really Awesome
Chapter 965: The Master is Really Awesome
Lilith chatted with Xiaoxiao for a while, then looked at Wu Heng again, asking in a questioning tone, "Your wings...?"
During the battle, Wu Heng spread his wings exactly like the vampires.
Even though Lilith didn't care about these things, she was still curious about it.
There are many humans who have transformed into light-blooded people, and the main reason is the increase in lifespan.
But Wu Heng has become a hero, so there is no need to transform at this time.
If he wants to stay alive, there are many ways for him to do so, and the Necromancer is particularly good at these.
Wu Heng took a sip from the wine glass and said calmly, "Through the potential stimulated by the potion, you can gain some vampire-like characteristics."
Lilith raised her eyebrows, her eyes becoming even more puzzled.
Is this possible?
Xiao Xiao flew back and helped, "Uncle said that I can become a merman in the future and swim in the sea."
Lilith still had a smile on her face. "So, you have the vampire's ability to fly, but you still don't belong to the vampire race?"
"That's understandable." Wu Heng continued, "Don't worry, I have never done anything to harm the vampires."
"That's not what I meant. Of course I believe you." Lilith rolled her eyes at him in reproach.
Feeling that his expression was not good, he immediately put on a cold expression.
Wu Heng continued, "When will you finish dealing with this and come back with me?"
Lilith raised her chin, "You came all the way here just to take me back."
"I don't feel comfortable here." Wu Heng said tactfully.
There is a foggy city under our feet, but the environment and construction are not as good as Treasure Island.
The city was damp, the streets were narrow, and there was a chaos of carriages and people.
It can be seen that there is indeed a difference from an ordinary city, but it is still much worse than Treasure Island.
Xiao Xiao also said, "Yeah! This place is not as good as Treasure Island, it's much worse..."
"What do you two mean! It has been established for a hundred years after all." Lilith was speechless.
He said the city was bad in front of others without any hesitation.
Wu Heng smiled and said, "Later, let the designer of Treasure Island help you plan it, install the lights, and re-plan the route. It will be much better than it is now."
"Okay, just arrange for someone to come over when you get back." Lilith nodded.
The two had mentioned before things like providing electricity to the vampire territory.
This time it has been decided directly.
"So, when are we going back?" Wu Heng looked at her.
Xiao Xiao repeated, "When?"
Lilith looked away and said unhappily, "I can't leave right away after this is over. Besides, the support team from headquarters is already here. We have to wait for them to arrive and complete the process."
"That's fine!" Wu Heng nodded.
All he wanted was to bring Lilith back. The two heroes on his side were enough to deal with any big trouble.
Moreover, when he returns, he still has to deal with matters in Rentam City, and Lilith is on the island.
Treasure Island would be safer.
The two ate and chatted after dinner.
Lilith took the coat handed over by the housekeeper and said, "Xiaoxiao, I will take you to the night patrol."
"Great! What is Night Patrol?" Xiao Xiao cheered and immediately asked.
"Just patrolling to see if anyone is doing anything at night." Lilith replied, then looked at the housekeeper, "Take Chief Wu Heng to check the bedroom and arrange anything he needs."
"Yes, Miss." The butler nodded, "Captain Wu Heng, please come this way."
Xiaoxiao and Lilith left, and Wu Heng followed the housekeeper to the prepared bedroom.
……
The room is spacious and deep, with a dark wooden partition separating the study from the bedroom. The carvings on the surface show some of the vampires' favorite patterns, such as thorns and roses.
The whole room exudes a classical gloomy style, as if the air is filled with musty smell.
The lighting stone was embedded in the copper candlestick on the wall, and the dim light barely illuminated the room.
It is much worse than the Treasure Island lights.
Glenda floated closer, her translucent figure glowing with a faint blue light under the light stone, and said, "Lilith looks at you with tenderness, so take this opportunity... to be bolder."
Wu Heng took off his coat and hung it on the hanger beside him. "Tender? Why do I feel like she keeps glaring at me?"
"You just kept your head down eating, of course you didn't notice." Glenda said unhappily.
Benny's figure appeared on the other side, turned lightly, and interrupted with a smile, "You came all the way to save her. Which woman wouldn't be moved? Aren't you good at coaxing women? Just get her this time!"
"When did I become good at it?" Wu Heng scratched his face, "What if she disagrees and hits me?"
"Can she really kill you?" Glenda floated over and encouraged, "With your current strength, taking two hits in exchange for a heroic companion is a deal... a huge profit!"
Wu Heng looked at the two ghosts on his left and right, staring at him, "Okay, I'll try if I have a chance."
The two ghosts didn't say anything more. Grenda said, "Give me the Book of the Dead. I'll see if there's any record of high-level vampire skeletons in it."
"And my tablet." Benny spun in the air.
Wu Heng handed the books and tablet to them.
After settling the two ghosts, Wu Heng walked into the inner room and called Minnie.
"Owner!"
As soon as the screen lit up, I saw several maids in the house, including Philippa, huddled together, greeting each other in a flurry.
"Have you arrived at the vampire territory? Are you hurt?" Minnie's voice was filled with worry.
"We're here. The problem has been resolved." Wu Heng leaned back in his chair and relaxed.
"So fast!" Robe said in surprise.
Minnie asked, "Is it dangerous over there?"
"It's not that dangerous." Wu Heng said casually, "The opponent's strength is average. Lilith and I teamed up and easily solved it."
"Wow, the master is so awesome!" The maids exclaimed in support.
Wu Heng smiled and shook his head, then asked, "How is Treasure Island?"
They talked about business, and the others kept quiet. Minnie replied, "Everything is normal on the island. Sister Wei'er has arrived in Rentam City and met with Sister Wen Mansha. She called me two days ago and said that everything is going well."
After a slight pause, he continued, "This morning, Miss Letili also came to visit Treasure Island and said that she had officially taken over the position of head of the Treasure Island Consortium. Unfortunately, you were not here, so she left a gift and left."
"Letili is on the island?"
"Yes!" Minnie nodded, her tone light, "She also mentioned your battle with the Holy See, saying that she had set out before, but was stopped by the Holy See's fleet halfway. As soon as the battle was over, she rushed back immediately."
Wu Heng touched his chin and asked, "Where is the original person in charge?"
Minnie said, "I heard he was transferred! But Miss Letili said that she gave him a large sum of money, so even if he was transferred to a small place, it would be enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life."
Wu Heng chuckled: "You know how to behave."
"Is the master coming back?" Minnie continued to ask.
"Yes, I'll be back in two days." Wu Heng nodded, "Report safety to Shannara, Xilagui, and me, and I won't call them."
The maids were stunned. Minnie's eyes widened. "And Butler Xilagui?"
Wu Heng smiled and said, "The two sisters always come to our house for dinner. Didn't you notice it at all?"
"Are they sisters?" The maids were even more surprised. "The master is really amazing."
"I won't chat with you anymore. I'll be back in two days." Wu Heng said.
"Goodbye Master!"
I hung up the phone and sat on the bed to think.
Take out the divination tortoise shell from the space ring.
Holding the tortoise shell in his hand, he pondered the impact that Letili's arrival on the island would have on Treasure Island, and then shook it gently.
The coin slipped out of the tortoise shell, and after it spun on the ground, two coins were facing upwards.
Kokichi!
Wu Heng raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Letili's coming to the island would be helpful to Treasure Island.
Maybe it’s because of their low status that they can’t be of much help.
In short, I have been working with Letili for a long time, and this woman is smart and capable.
Being the chairman of the Treasure Island Group would also make things easier for himself.
As for the association's concerns, they are no longer that important now.
Previously, he was the flag bearer of the association, and was afraid of being caught with something, so he went outside to order items from the consortium.
Now that I'm a hero, I don't need to be so cautious.
Most rules cannot restrict heroes.
……
Lie on your back in bed.
My mind started to think involuntarily.
Including the corpse of the vampire hero this time, he already has three skeletons that can kill heroes.
Moreover, the level of this corpse will not decrease after transformation, which also saves the trouble of arranging it to upgrade later. It can be said that my strength has been improved again.
"The Holy See still dares to launch a holy war. I don't even need to use missiles." Wu Heng muttered.
His own strength, plus three heroic skeletons.
Fighting against two or three heroes is not a big problem.
"After I return, I will first deal with the Empress' affairs, and then continue to develop my own Lingqi Sect."
The Empress's work is not difficult.
In the modern world, there are records of the Shang Dynasty everywhere. All you have to do is ask and take her to have a look.
When the time comes, you will become your own ghost and know some of the things you want.
"And the Yeko Kingdom!"
He became a hero, and the Yeko Kingdom was quiet for a while.
This time, he followed the order of the Holy See to launch an attack on the city of Rentam, which gave him a reason to interfere in the internal affairs of the Yeko Kingdom.
He thought about everything in his mind and closed his eyes again to rest.
……
Early morning, restaurant.
Lilith held the goblet with her fingertips, and the fruit wine swayed carelessly as she did so.
"Today I have to deal with the officials in the clan." Lilith took a sip, "Some old guys, it's time to rest."
Wu Heng ate beef and asked casually, "You vampires seem to particularly like engaging in family politics?"
Family politics is a system in which the top leaders are all from the same family.
"The aftereffects of living too long." Lilith said helplessly.
"Do you need my help? It's difficult for you to handle it. I'll help you deal with it." Wu Heng said seriously.
Lilith forced a smile, "Without a hero, the rest of the things are easy to handle. You can stay at home or go out for a walk."
"Yes!" Wu Heng continued, "I also need to take a rest. I may study magic books in my room. Try not to let anyone get close to my room."
"Okay, no one will disturb you." Lilith nodded.
After breakfast, Lilith left with her guards, and Wu Heng went upstairs to his bedroom.
The door was locked, and Wu Heng said, "Let's go to the other side."
"Go see the zombies?" Xiaoxiao muttered.
"Today is the annual meeting that your Aunt Li Yahong talked about. It only happens once a year." Wu Heng changed his clothes. "I promised her. If I don't go, she will definitely be angry again."
"Annual meeting? When did you say that? Why didn't I hear it?" Xiao Xiao showed her anticipation for the annual meeting.
"I said on the phone that you should come back first." Wu Heng opened the gate.
The ghost drilled back into the body and Wu Heng walked straight in.
The other side is still the prison's monitoring room.
After releasing the ghost, he took out his phone and dialed Li Yahong's number.
After two rings, Li Yahong's voice came from the other side, with dissatisfaction in her tone, "Have you forgotten?"
"I remember, the annual meeting is today." Wu Heng said.
"I'll arrange someone to pick you up." Li Yahong said.
Wu Heng walked out and said to the phone, "No, I can go there myself."
"Then I will arrange for you to commend outstanding members later. There are six people in total. I will give you the list then." Li Yahong explained in a deep voice.
"Okay!" Wu Heng walked out of the building and headed for the garage.
He got on an off-road vehicle and said to the skeleton driver, "Let's go to the central shopping mall."
The vehicle started and left the prison.
……
When we arrived at the scene, the annual meeting had already begun.
In the banquet hall, the crystal chandeliers reflected brilliant golden light, illuminating the entire space like a prosperous scene before doomsday.
The huge electronic screen behind the stage broadcast the performance on stage in real time, and the base members below all had happy and relaxed expressions on their faces.
Wu Heng made his way through the crowd, lowering his voice as he spoke, his eyes filled with awe.
Li Yahong sat in the center of the first row, with Qi Hancai and Gao Rong on either side, as well as some unfamiliar faces, including a few foreigners.
When he saw Wu Heng, his eyes lit up and he immediately waved to him.
"You're finally here!" Li Yahong lowered her voice and gestured to the people around her, "Let me introduce you. This is the representative of the headquarters - Deputy Commander Qi, this is the representative of New Eden - Mr. Joel, and this..."
Six or seven of them were introduced one after another, including a large base of the Dawn Alliance and several bases that had never been heard of.
Wu Heng also shook hands with them enthusiastically.
These people were also very interested in Wu Heng and looked him up and down.
After chatting with a few representatives for a while, Li Yahong came over again and said, "The performance will be over soon. You will go on stage to present certificates to the members of the base."
Wu Heng said: "I also brought a protective pendant, which I plan to give out as a reward."
I originally purchased two items: [Flame Ring] and [Protection Pendant].
But there were only six people going on stage, so Wu Heng planned to distribute "protective pendants". The people at the Flame Ring Base couldn't use them, and giving them to them would easily cause problems.
Li Yahong also had a 'protective pendant' and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Will there be any trouble if there are people from other bases here?"
"It's okay! It's not a big problem." Wu Heng gestured to reassure her.
With my own strength, it’s not a big problem to just show some small props.
"Okay! Do you need a demonstration?" Li Yahong asked again.
"You will demonstrate it to me then."
"Yeah." Li Yahong nodded.
Soon, the performance ended, and the host's passionate voice sounded:
"Next, please invite Chief Wu Heng to present awards to the members who have made outstanding contributions to the base this year!"
The spotlight suddenly focused, and Wu Heng slowly walked onto the stage. The screen behind him magnified his every subtle movement.
The audience suddenly became quiet and everyone looked up.
It was the first time for many people to see Wu Heng.
The host continued, "Please invite the members whose names are called to come up on stage to receive their awards."
"Yu Xuan, an investigator at the military factory, has made many improvements to the equipment, increasing production efficiency by 40%."
A tall, thin man wearing glasses walked onto the stage nervously, his fingers rubbing the corners of his clothes unconsciously. Wu Heng reached out and shook his hand with a steady force.
"Lin Yuwei awakened her purification ability and purified the water resources at various bases, saving countless lives."
"Yang Lei's vanguard team set an example and carried out dangerous missions many times..."
Several people came on stage one after another. Wu Heng shook hands with them one by one, then presented the certificates, and then put the pendant around everyone's neck like a medal.
The host read the manuscript that was delivered to him, "In addition to the rewards from the base, Chief Wu Heng also prepared special gifts for everyone, protective amulets, which will protect the wearer in the event of sudden danger."
After he finished reading it, there was silence below.
The host also frowned and checked the content again to confirm whether he had read it wrong.
At this time, Li Yahong came up, followed by a skeleton.
Put the [Protection Pendant] on the skull's neck, then take a crossbow and aim and shoot.
The crossbow arrow broke through the air, and when it was about to hit, a light blue barrier unfolded.
The crossbow arrow seemed to have hit a wall and fell to the ground powerlessly.
There was dead silence in the audience.
Then it boiled over again in an instant.
"This...isn't this equivalent to directly possessing superpowers? Defensive superpowers."
"No need to awaken, just put it on and it will work?"
"Where on earth did the leader get this kind of artifact?"
Discussions arose one after another, and everyone's eyes became heated.
In this apocalypse, people with superpowers are rare, and if ordinary people want to gain power, they can only rely on luck to awaken.
But now, Wu Heng actually took out something that allows ordinary people to directly use their supernatural powers!
……
"Thank you, Deputy Chief Li, for your demonstration. We have seen the magical effect of this necklace. Please return to your seat first." The host continued to control the situation and invited Wu Heng to the center of the stage. "Chief, please give us New Year's greetings."
Wu Heng said a few words of encouragement and blessings to the members below, and then walked off the stage.
As soon as I returned to my seat, several representatives from foreign bases came over immediately.
"Chief Wu Heng, this thing of yours! Is it a newly developed technology?"
"Can it be used on tanks or some vehicles to act as a shield?"
"Some of them look like spells from games!"
"Captain Wu Heng, are you willing to sell this technology? We can also exchange technology."
