Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 979, Dead End
"Save it first, maybe use it as ritual material in the future." Wu Heng answered casually.

Absorb the fusion gene, but still don’t plan to tell her.

Eating offal is somewhat heavy in taste, and there is no benefit in talking about it.

Wen Mansha said, "If you have anything to save, tell me when you need it. There are always orcs who were executed for fighting or committing crimes here, and their bodies can be seen everywhere."

The tone of his voice sounded as if he was saying that there was nothing else and that he could have as many orc corpses as he wanted.

"Save it first, so you won't be in a hurry when you need it." Wu Heng said with a smile.

"Okay, everything is ready anyway." Wen Mansha said with a pout.

Wu Heng continued, "Go feed the child first. Didn't you say there will be new moves tonight? Let's go to bed early."

"Okay!" Wen Mansha walked to the door and turned back to ask, "Do you need me to ask 'Natalia' to come along?"

"Don't make things difficult for her. It's enough for me to have you two accompany me." Wu Heng said.

"She's not against you, you just need a push." ​​Wenman didn't say much and turned away.

After the door is closed.

Glenda appeared at the side and said, "The level of these internal organs is a bit low. Will it affect the fusion effect?"

"It's hard to find high-level orcs here, unless we go and kill the shaman." Wu Heng said.

The professionals in Rentam City are generally not very good.

I remember when I was the captain, the leader of the Warhammer Party who almost massacred the entire city was only level 15.

The only high-level orcs that I know of in the city are orc shamans.

But there was no grudge between them, and their relationship had been relatively harmonious before, so killing each other was a bit too much.

"You're right." Granda continued, "The fusion gene should have little to do with the level of the corpse. Let's give it a try!"

Wu Heng nodded, opened the organ jar, and took out a bright red heart.

After a simple cleansing, cut a small piece and swallow it directly as before.

The next second, a surge of energy exploded in the stomach and spread throughout the body.

Then the system prompt appears.

[Fusion characteristics: strong physique, iron stomach. ]

【Throwaway characteristics: strong body odor.】

【Strong Physique】: Possessing super strong physique and the ability to withstand blows.

【Iron Stomach】: Powerful digestive ability, can quickly restore physical strength through eating.

"How is it? Are there any new effects?" Glenda waited for him to return to normal and asked.

Wu Heng said: "Two properties, one is to enhance physical fitness, and the other is to promote digestion."

Glenda raised her eyebrows, "It doesn't sound like it will be of much help to you."

"It is helpful to strengthen your physical fitness." Wu Heng walked to the side and lifted up his clothes.

The figure in the mirror had muscles as sharp and angular as sculptures.

Combined with the elves' body rhythm, it shows a gentle sense of strength.

Glenda floated to the side and also looked at her reflection in the mirror, smiling and saying, "Not bad, I guess those women can charm you to death."

"Really? Can it charm you to death?" Wu Heng put down his clothes.

"I'm a ghost, I won't fall for your tricks." Glenda rolled her eyes at him and continued, "You're a hero now, so improving your physique won't help you much. Ordinary attacks can't kill you. A hero's attacks are extremely powerful, so increasing your physique a little bit won't have much effect."

Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "Not necessarily. With improved physique, one's resistance to abnormal conditions has also increased. Even if one is hurt, one can recover faster."

Glenda raised her eyebrows, "You're right. It's more comprehensive than I thought."

One person and one soul chatting.

The other three ghosts flew back from outside.

"Uncle, aunt! What are you talking about?" Xiao Xiao asked casually, but she didn't seem to want to hear the answer, and said directly, "Uncle, give me the tablet, I'll find a movie for my aunt."

Wu Heng took out the tablet and asked, "Where have you three been?"

Xiao Xiao adjusted the tablet and continued, "I'm just teasing my sister. We are all leaving. I will miss her in the future."

"It sounds like you're not coming back." Wu Heng said with a smile.

Xiaoxiao operated the tablet skillfully, and then said, "When my sister grows up, she will definitely remember me first. Then I will teach her how to do her homework."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows and didn't say much.

The movie was found, and Xiaoxiao, Benny and Niangniang went aside to watch the movie.

Glenda also asked for a book to read.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, took out his cell phone and dialed the number.

……

After the phone rang twice, the voice of the fifth princess came from inside, "My Lord!"

"Well, how are you doing lately?" Wu Heng leaned back in his chair.

After confirming that it was really Wu Heng, the Fifth Princess' voice was filled with surprise, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern."

Then, the call was turned into a video call, and the faces of the five princesses appeared on the screen.

Her long golden hair was loose, her face was delicate and fair, and the neckline of her nightgown opened slightly as she leaned forward. The bright light cast a clear shadow on her collarbone.

The fifth princess seemed oblivious to this. Her fingertips unconsciously twirled the ends of her hair, her eyes fixed on the screen. "My Lord, you seem to have changed a lot. Your skin is better than before."

"I'm a grown man, how can my skin be as good as yours?" Wu Heng asked, "Is it safe over there?"

"There is no danger. Is there something special happening?" The Fifth Princess looked puzzled.

Wu Heng said, "There are more assassins in Rentam City, so you should also pay attention to your safety."

The Fifth Princess paused, then said, "The eldest prince recently executed three ministers who had written contact with me. Apart from that, there has been no assassination attempt."

"If you want to go out, be careful." Wu Heng warned again, and continued, "I will take care of the affairs of the Yeke Kingdom in the next few days, and then I will let you sit on the throne."

The fifth princess' eyes narrowed.

I feel excited and thrilled, but also a little hesitant and worried.

A complex expression changed on his face. After waiting for a long time, he said, "I will listen to you, sir."

"You don't have to worry too much. I will call you when I arrive in Chelu and you can take the train over." Wu Heng said.

"Okay! I'll wait for your news at any time." The fifth princess looked serious.

The two chatted for a while and then hung up the phone.

Wu Heng said hello to the ghosts and returned to the room to rest.

……

The next day, church.

Wu Heng and Wen Mansha went to the church together.

Just like the news brought back by the ghost yesterday, the entire church was packed with humans and orcs.

The priest read the doctrine loudly on the platform, and the people below followed suit. The sound was rough and spread outward.

The side halls on both sides are prayer rooms.

They also lined up in a long queue, waiting to ask questions to the "God's Messenger" in order to get the answers they wanted. Wu Heng glanced at his own beliefs.

【Faith: 727/50000.】

The increase is indeed very fast.

But these should be the beliefs provided by Treasure Island. After all, the church here was only built two days ago, and it is impossible to have such an exaggerated effect.

Even if it is brainwashing, it will take several days.

Wen Mansha stood beside him and said softly, "The eggs are purchased from the orc tribe. Some tribes are good at raising poultry. I also got news that some people get eggs from us and then sell them. Then they will be returned to us."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows. This operation was something that Treasure Island had never encountered before.

The residents of Treasure Island basically take them back home for breakfast or lunch for their families, and they can also sell them here.

"Let's keep doing this for a few days and then see how the situation develops," Wu Heng said.

Wen Mansha smiled and said, "There aren't many people taking out, so it shouldn't be a problem."

"That's good!" Wu Heng continued, "The churches behind us will all follow this model. You will have to work harder and keep an eye on them."

"Look at what you said. This is what I should do. Just don't worry about your own things." Wen Mansha leaned over and took his arm.

"Come on, let's go back. I'll leave in the afternoon." Wu Heng said, and put his arm around her waist.

【Teleportation】 is released and the figure disappears.

……

In the afternoon, in the courtyard of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Princess Natalia handed over the Faceless Mask, with a worried look in her eyes, "My lord, you must be careful."

"I'll pay attention." Wu Heng smiled and touched her head. "When you don't have the mask, you can say that the second prince is hiding because of an assassination."

Natalia carefully glanced at Wen Mansha and Andvier beside her, and seeing that there was no change in the two of them, their faces were still flushed, she replied: "Don't worry, sir, I have already explained it."

Wu Heng nodded.

Wen Mansha came up with the child in her arms, "Master, be careful on your journey. If things don't go smoothly, you can come back and we can discuss it again."

"Don't worry, I'll call you when the time comes." Wu Heng kissed Wen Mansha and her daughter on the forehead, then kissed Andwier, "I'm leaving."

A few people stepped back, and Wu Heng took out the [train conductor's hat] and put it on his head.

The next second, the ghost train appeared.

Wu Heng waved goodbye again and boarded the train.

……

The Imperial Council.

Inside the parliament hall, the luminous stone chandelier casts a halo of light on the ancient oak round table.

There were three figures sitting around the round table.

The Finance Minister 'Artos' was wearing a velvet robe with exquisite patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs, the military commander 'Leona' was sitting upright in leather armor, and the chief wizard 'Vidian' was wearing a robe and holding a wooden staff.

The three of them sat silently around the round table, like three old men fallen into silence.

No matter how well they were maintained, the three of them were already old, with wrinkles all over their faces. They were like a kingdom that had lost its former glory and was now aging.

Uncontrolled decline.

Behind the three of them, near the outer edge of the round table, there were more than a dozen ministers of the kingdom attending the Royal Council.

After the last person at the back took a seat, the door of the hall was closed.

The military commander spoke first, "The Holy See's intention is very simple. Even the last troops of the kingdom must die on the battlefield."

The Minister of Finance sighed slightly, "Your Majesty is still young and does not have much courage."

"If we continue to fight like this, the kingdom will be the first to collapse." The chief wizard took a deep breath and exhaled, "We need to discuss how to end this battle and save more power for the kingdom."

"Your Majesty won't say anything, and the Vatican is keeping a close eye on us, so there's not much we can do," said the military commander.

The Finance Minister frowned, suppressing his anger in his voice, "I still don't understand why the Vatican wants the Kingdom's army to fight to the death. Don't they know that this is courting death?"

"I didn't understand it at first." The chief wizard said, "But recently I saw the newspaper of Treasure Island and the notices issued by the headquarters in various places, and suddenly I understood some things."

The old wizard stroked his staff with his fingers and continued, "Rentum City now has two choices. One is to retreat and give up the occupied land, but the kingdom's army will still attack Rentam City. The second is for the skeleton army to rush into the royal city and overthrow the entire kingdom."

"The undead army destroyed a kingdom and massacred living beings. No matter what the cause of the war was, this is enough to charge Wu Heng with a war crime or a crime against civilization. The association will have to take care of this matter then."

As soon as these words were spoken, the room instantly fell silent.

In other words, the lives of the kingdom's soldiers were exchanged for Wu Heng's disgrace.

During the long silence, everyone could hear each other's heartbeats and angry breathing.

Then, the officials at the back suddenly spoke in an emotional tone.

"Your Majesty, don't you know about this? Why don't you try to stop it?"

"I think we can write a letter to Wu Heng and explain our difficulties. Even if we are really investigated later, we can still save some people."

"This won't work. Once the news leaks out, the kingdom will be like a fence-sitter. Then the Church and Wu Heng will target the kingdom, and the situation will only become more difficult."

"What about the association? We can write to the association. With so many people dead, we can ask the leader of the association to intervene."

"We humans are lacking a leader!"

When talking about the human leader, everyone thought of Wu Heng again.

This professional who came out of the Yeko Kingdom clearly had the opportunity to stay in the Yeko Kingdom.

Become Yeko Kingdom's own hero.

Unfortunately, the kingdom's repeated actions pushed the other side further and further away.

"Hey~!"

Sighs were heard one after another.

……

church.

The archbishop sat upright on a gorgeous chair, flipping through a book in his hand. After listening to his subordinates' reports, he smiled and said, "These guys are indeed diligent, but they are just some insignificant little people who can't change anything except complaining.

The news had already reached here before the Imperial Council had even ended.

A young bishop leaned forward slightly and said cautiously: "If they join forces with the Grand Prince to put pressure on them..."

"Pressure?" The archbishop chuckled, tapping the armrest with his fingertips. "The collusion with the evil cult, the death of the deacon of Netale City, any one of these pieces of evidence is enough to bring him to ruin. Di Talio doesn't have the courage and ability to fight to the death."

The young bishop continued, "But Wu Heng... really pushed him into a corner."

The only thing I'm worried about is Wu Heng.

The threat of one hero is simply too great.

"Both our headquarters and the cathedral are keeping an eye on Treasure Island. He dares not come out." The archbishop said confidently.

"It is said that Wu Heng is an extremely smart man. Do you think he has any tricks up his sleeve?"

The Archbishop thought about it and laughed, "Dead end!"

"Right now, this is a dead end. If the army of Rentam City retreats, they will be pressed step by step. If they advance, they will become butchers, proving that they are evil professions."

"Even if he has extraordinary abilities, he can only admit defeat."
