Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 988, Let’s Wait and See

Religious leader, restore the body.

Upon hearing the news, Wu Heng was stunned at first, and then fell into deep thought.

If such a magical thing with such an effect really existed, we would have never heard of it.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and asked, "Did they tell me the name of the strange object?"

Minnie replied, "No, the content is very secretive. It only said that the rare item has been obtained and the necessary conditions are being prepared."

Even if the name is mentioned, I probably wouldn't know it myself.

It’s not that important.

"I see." Wu Heng then asked, "Did you receive any other intelligence?"

Minnie paused for a moment and continued, "Our headquarters is investigating the Celtic Kingdom, and all we've been talking about is this.

The dwarves are collecting various materials to make a material called Molten Core."

Lilith had mentioned the Celtic Kingdom to me.

The Molten Core of the Dwarves sounds like a forging tool or a strange item.

"Do you know what the Celtic Kingdom has done wrong?" Wu Heng continued to ask.

Minnie replied, "I heard that it has something to do with the royal family, and they want to investigate the entire royal family."

Good guy!
It sounds like something more serious than the murder of the local deacon by the Grand Prince's men.

Wu Heng thought about it again, and then he had nothing to say, so he said, "Please notify me if you have any news. I will be back in two days."

"Okay master, you also take care of yourself." Minnie said with a smile.

"Ah."

Then, Minnie said "Goodbye, Master" obediently and hung up the phone.

Putting away the phone, the empress who was beside him asked, "What's wrong?"

The rest of the ghosts went out to watch the fun, and only the empress stayed with him.

Wu Heng said: "Minnie heard some information from the church. The Holy See has obtained a rare item that can allow the religious leader to regain his physical body."

The empress floated aside, speaking in the same tone as an old professor, "It was not uncommon for ghosts to want to revive in my time. For example, they could occupy a body, or the body could break free of its cocoon and regain vitality. It was not surprising to have a magical object that could achieve this effect."

"Then why didn't you resurrect?" Wu Heng asked.

The queen choked up and said, "What I said requires special skills."

Wu Heng nodded and continued, "Now is different from your time. The only universal skill is resurrection, and it has great restrictions. The restrictions on strange objects with this effect should also be great."

"That's right!" The Queen also agreed with this statement.

Wu Heng turned his head and looked in the direction of the hall.

Brittany stood on the podium and began her speech.

Impassioned.

"I'm going back to the study. Do you want to stay here and read for a while?" Wu Heng said.

The queen said, "You go back first, I'll watch for a while."

"Then you better be careful. If there is any danger, protect Brittany." Wu Heng instructed.

"Okay!" The queen agreed immediately.

Wu Heng went straight upstairs.

……

Put it back in the study.

The room was silent as the four ghosts watched the Queen's coronation.

Wu Heng poured himself a cup of tea and sat down on a wooden chair at the side. He subconsciously began to think about the religious leader's recovery.

With the ability of the Holy See, it is not difficult to obtain a rare item. The only doubt is why no similar news has been heard before.

A magical item that can restore ghosts to their bodies cannot remain unknown.

After a professional reaches level 18, he will definitely become a ghost when he dies.

So, have these high-level professionals who have reached level 18 or above ever thought about this rare item?
Even if the level 18 professionals don’t know, what about the heroes?
You know, the immortal emperor over there in the desert also achieved near immortality by becoming a corpse ghost.

Why, such a strange object was only mentioned after the death of the religious leader?

It feels a little strange.

Wu Heng thought while drinking tea.

Four ghosts flew in through the wall from outside.

Still gathered together to discuss the coronation ceremony.

"Uncle, why didn't you go to see the princess ascend the throne?" Xiao Xiao flew over and asked.

"I looked for a while and felt there was nothing wrong, so I came back." Wu Heng answered and picked up the cup of tea.

Xiao Xiao flew around in circles and said, "It's even more lively outside. After the princess finished her speech, there were bards at every intersection speaking well of her."

"Is there a Treasure Island bustling?"

"Not really!" He smiled slightly.

Wu Heng fixed his eyes on Glenda and said, "I just received a call from Minnie, saying that the Vatican had obtained a rare item and was planning to restore the body of the religious leader."

The lively atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Xiao Xiao asked curiously, "Is it also a puppet?"

"Dolls are props made by puppeteers and are not rare objects," Wu Heng replied.

"Oh!"

Glenda pretended to think and said, "How can there be such a thing?"

"It's indeed a bit strange." Wu Heng also agreed.

Glenda then asked, "What do you think?"

The other three ghosts also looked at him in unison.

Wu Heng paused for a moment and said slowly, "There are two possibilities. One is that the Holy See really found such a rare item. With the Holy See's ability and the scope of its spread across the continent, it is not surprising to find some rare items and props with special effects.

The second possibility is that the Vatican is testing the radio station’s safety.”

The four ghosts were stunned.

Xiao Xiao said, "Oh! They suspect that you are eavesdropping and testing us."

Wu Heng nodded and said, "I doubt if there is such a possibility."

"Now that you mention it, it's possible. If we were the Holy See, we would definitely doubt whether there are any problems with the items sent by our opponents." Granda agreed.

The other two ghosts also nodded.

The radio was sent over. Even if the other party did not know the principle of the radio, due to the great hatred between the two sides, they would definitely doubt whether this prop had any hidden dangers.

It is very likely that this method is being used for testing.

As long as there is the slightest movement, the Vatican will know that the radio station is being tapped.

It will not be used again in the future.

Bernie said, "What if this is true?"

The man and several souls fell into silence again.

Xiao Xiao looked around and said, "Isn't this better? We didn't get the body last time. It was such a pity! Besides, think about it, if he can recover, we don't have to breed zombies in prison, let him revive constantly, and use his body as a skeleton for us."

The three souls of one person stared at her with wide eyes at the same time.

Xiao Xiao was a little embarrassed, "What's wrong? Is this method not good?"

Beni sighed, "Xiaoxiao...'s idea is really unique."

The queen also said, "You are the necromancer!"

"Is it not good? I feel it's pretty good. He can't beat us." Xiao Xiao thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with his suggestion.

Wu Heng concluded, "Xiao Xiao's story is fine. Even if the other party really finds this strange object, it won't pose much of a threat to us. We shouldn't reveal the radio station because of this incident."

"Yes!" Glenda also said, "There are other races using the radio. We must not let anyone know that we can eavesdrop, not even Lilith."

After the four souls of one person chatted, they felt that it was not a big deal.

Even if the religious leader could be resurrected, it would be difficult for him to pose any threat to the current power on their side.

The biggest danger is the god behind the Vatican.

After figuring it out, I felt more relaxed. "That's fine. We'll stay here for another day and go back to Treasure Island tomorrow."

……

At dusk, Queen Brittany walked in from outside.

The royal robes on his body have been replaced with home clothes.

Seeing Wu Heng sitting on the chair, he immediately looked up and asked, "Sir, how did I perform today?"

Wu Heng looked at her expectant expression and said with a smile, "Very good. I feel like I am no worse than other kings. I am very imposing."

"Really? I'm glad I didn't embarrass you." Brittany smiled.

Wu Heng didn't stay downstairs for long and only listened to the beginning of the speech, but Brittany's performance was indeed good.

Some things are just like that.

When the crown was placed on her head, her entire aura changed.

The king's majesty naturally emanated from him.

Just like a person who is really rich, one can feel calm and confident in his words and deeds. Brittany continued, "I plan to discuss with Sister Wen Mansha tonight to finalize the armistice agreement and then arrange for the envoy to sign the agreement."

"Just discuss it. The machine engineer from Treasure Island is still in Rentam City. We can plan a time and help the kingdom get electricity." Wu Heng said directly.

Brittany's expression froze, "I'm going to be outshined by Sister Wen Mansha again."

Wu Heng smiled, "It's not that serious. Wen Mansha is easy to talk to. You two can discuss it carefully."

Brittany pouted, walked over and sat in his arms, and said coquettishly: "My lord, you must help me to talk to Sister Wen Mansha when the time comes, so that she won't be too cruel."

Wu Heng put his arm around her waist and said, "Okay! You guys talk first. If that doesn't work, I'll help you talk."

"Yeah!" Brittany smiled immediately.

When it comes to electricity, Brittany's eyes are filled with longing.

Treasure Island is known as the Pearl of the Emerald Sea. The whole island is bright day and night, and the business atmosphere is also good.

If I just follow the example of Treasure Island, I can achieve a similar effect.

His performance will not be worse than the previous king, and he will become the king loved by everyone.

Then, the two chatted for a while about future developments.

Wu Heng put his arm around the man's waist and reached into his clothes along his lower back, caressing his smooth skin while saying, "I will be returning to Treasure Island tomorrow, and I can't be away for too long. I will arrange some skeletons to protect you."

Brittany asked reluctantly, "Sir, will you come to see me again?"

"I've saved a few extra tickets for you. Once you've settled down here, you can go to Treasure Island and stay there for a few days. It won't take long." Wu Heng said with a smile.

"You're right." Brittany smiled again.

Anyway, with the ghost train, it doesn’t take long to go back and forth.

Wu Heng patted her butt and told her to get up first, then he opened the [Mansion Technique] and said, "Jumping Number Two, Sandbag Fist Number Two, you two come out and are responsible for protecting her from now on."

Two tall skeletons walked out from inside.

Brittany raised her eyebrows and took a closer look at the wings behind the other person.

She had seen this kind of winged skeleton before. It was a particularly powerful skeleton servant.

Wu Heng continued, "These two skeletons are level 20. They can handle all dangers except those that heroes cannot kill. If you encounter something they cannot handle, use the ghost train to leave. Here is the ticket."

Brittany's eyes widened.

Level 20... Skeleton.

A skeleton of the same level as the hero, used to protect himself.

The words came to his lips, but he held them back.

What I told the ministers was still too conservative.

The skeleton servants around him can all reach level 20.

This alone has surpassed all previous kings.

"Brittany?" Wu Heng called out.

Brittany immediately came to her senses, "Thank you, sir. I'll remember that."

Wu Heng continued, "You should also pay attention to leveling up. When you reach level 18, I will help you increase your reputation and become a hero."

Brittany looked grateful.

It’s great that I have the chance to become a hero too.

"My escape to Treasure Island was the best decision I ever made."

"You were very brave at that time."

Dong dong dong~!

There was a slight knock on the door, and the maid's voice came from outside, "Your Majesty! Dinner is ready."

"Okay, got it!" Brittany said to the door.

Then he took Wu Heng's hand and said, "Let's eat first, and then we can rest early. You have to work harder tonight."

……

The next day, Wu Heng accompanied Brittany to complete the first morning meeting after ascending the throne.

Brittany also performed well and took a leading position throughout the meeting.

Arrange all the things.

When the meeting was over, the ministers left.

Wu Heng and Brittany were in the room, continuing to talk about the future arrangements. A puff of smoke came from the distant sky, passed through the window, and condensed into the image of the witch "Viola".

"Your Majesty, the Queen." Viola saluted the two of them.

Wu Heng asked first: "Is there any news about the person I asked you to find?"

Viola said, "We have found it. Babuzi is the shadow leader of the eastern region. Do we need to transfer him back?"

Babuzi is the leader of the Flying Fish Pirates.

In other words, Philippa's only friend among the pirates was arranged here as an undercover agent in order to make amends.

However, after being assigned here, no useful information was sent back, and Wu Heng had to find the person specifically to confirm whether he was dead or not.

"Don't worry, we'll talk about it later when we need to be transferred." Wu Heng continued, "Come back to Treasure Island with me later."

Viola's pupils shrank slightly, and she hesitated and said, "My lord, I am now in charge of the Shadow Council of the Kingdom. How about I stay and help Her Majesty the Queen for a while, and then go to Treasure Island after everything is completely stable."

Staying here is much easier than contacting Wu Heng.

"Brittany will arrange other people to take charge of things here." Wu Heng said directly.

Brittany also smiled and said, "Thank you Sister Viola for your help during this period. The kingdom is relatively peaceful at the moment, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Before, Viola's level was quite high.

But Wu Heng arranged two level 20 skeletons for her, so one more or one less wouldn't be that important.

Viola felt that she had been betrayed, but she had no better solution. "I will follow your instructions."

"Is there anything that needs to be packed?" Wu Heng said.

Viola thought for a moment, "There's nothing to pack, I brought everything with me."

Wu Heng opened the [Mansion Technique], revealing the space inside, "You go in first, and I'll let you out when we get back to Treasure Island."

Viola looked inside and her eyes widened again.

In addition to the skeletons, there were also several clergymen of the Holy See imprisoned inside, including the archbishop who was extremely powerful in the palace.

At this time, the archbishop was locked in a sealed metal box with two arms placed beside him.

His mouth was also sealed, and he looked extremely hideous and terrifying.

He is indeed a devil...

Viola thought to herself.

"It's okay, they are all seriously injured and pose no threat to you." Wu Heng said.

Viola came to her senses, glanced at him, and walked in.

[Mansion Technique] was closed, and Wu Heng walked outside.

In the courtyard, Wu Heng said goodbye to Brittany, "I'm going back. Call me if you have anything."

"Once I've arranged everything here, I'll come to see you." Brittany said reluctantly.

Behind her were two tall skeleton attendants.

At this time, he had changed into the kingdom's attire, and all parts of his body were wrapped up.

Like two tall bodyguards.

Wu Heng patted her head and said, "Okay, I'll introduce Minnie and the others to you then."

After saying goodbye, Wu Heng put on the [conductor's hat] and the train appeared.

Wu Heng boarded the train and waved goodbye.

The doors closed and the train disappeared.

……

Headquarters, leader’s study.

The illuminated stone lamp cast a halo of light on the table, illuminating the entire room with a dim yellow.

The soul of the religious leader was suspended in the air, like dark smoke, entwined around a fist-sized piece of 'Companion Yin Jade'.

Absorbing the wisps of undead power emitted by the Yin Jade.

If you become a ghost but have not made a contract with a necromancer, you need to absorb Yin Jade to maintain the stability of your soul.

On the other side of the study, a doll that looked almost exactly like him was sitting on a chair, wearing a luxurious robe and with his head slightly tilted.

Ha~!

The religious leader suddenly sneered.

During this period, in addition to his deep hatred for Wu Heng, he also developed a trace of... regret.

He underestimated the other party, underestimated him again and again.

From an inconspicuous professional on the Treasure Island to an existence that is powerful enough to shake the entire Holy See, Wu Heng's growth rate has far exceeded his expectations.

If he had known this would happen earlier, he should have crushed the other person's throat when he first set foot on Treasure Island instead of foolishly following the association's ridiculous rules!
"But you're just as stupid to follow the rules of the association."

The religious leader glanced at the radio station nearby.

"Wu Heng... let's wait and see."
