The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 145: 142, Kill Target1

Chapter 145: Chapter 142, Kill Target_1

Creak~!

The door was pushed open, and the room was dimly lit.

Rocky yawned, saying, “Have soone prepare bath water; I need to rest well tonight.”

There was no reply from behind, and the sound of footsteps entering was not just one person.

Rocky was suddenly alert.

Looking up, he saw three figures slowly entering.

They weren’t Winnie or his own subordinates. They were unfamiliar strangers.

Rocky was shocked, forcing himself to calm down. He slowly got up and said, “What brings you gentlen to my Pinned Gang?”

“Rocky, don’t you recognize ?” Wu Heng asked with a smile. Basen closed the door behind him.

“You are?” Rocky narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Now see here, leader Rocky, it’s so true that the higher-ups are often forgetful. You were out for a few days and you forgot about .” Wu Heng continued.

Rocky’s face changed, “You are from team 12, but wait, you’re not….”

“You want to say I didn’t notice you? Just think about it, if I hadn’t pretended not to notice anything, could you have made it back here?” Wu Heng continued to smile.

Rocky’s face turned even more unsightly.

He had thought the man was just a greenhorn, who would also give up since the investigation had not revealed anything.

But he didn’t expect that the man would be so devious, setting a trap for him.

And he had walked right into it.

Suppressing his unease, he took a deep breath, forced a bitter smile, and said, “Captain, it seems there was so misunderstanding. I was tricked into doing what I did. Now that I know your identity and strength, I wouldn’t dare to cross you even if it killed .”

Wu Heng sat down on a wooden chair not far away, “Oh? Is that really what you think, leader Rocky?”

“Of course.” Rocky continued, “You’re a guild captain, and I’m just a small gang. How could I oppose you? I hid away a few days ago because I realized I had done sothing wrong.”

Rocky lost his bossy deanor, showing the weakness and humility typical of a small fish.

He made out Wu Heng as very strong, while he himself was weak.

“Then just now, didn’t Fisher co to discuss your next move with you?” Wu Heng spoke again.

“Damn!” Rocky cursed, stepping heavily to his left and drew out an iron sword hidden on the shelf, “You’ll die here today!”

At this point, he had no way out.

The man knew everything about him, and he could guess what was going on without thinking.

Today, only one of them could walk out alive.

He shouted and charged furiously.

Fierce and aggressive.

Bang~!

The shrill gunshot rang out. With less than three ters separating them, accuracy was guaranteed.

In the midst of his shouting

A spray of blood erupted from his chest.

Bang bang bang~!

Imdiately after, three more shots hit his chest and abdon.

Rocky’s face changed drastically, looking down at the blood flowing from his armor.

He clenched his teeth.

He changed direction and ran toward the door, shouting, “Where are the people? Where is everyone outside?”

Bawudong swiftly blocked the door. With a swift kick, he knocked Rocky back.

At the sa ti, Basen attacked, shifting his position, circling around to Rocky’s back. The short blade in his hand stabbed into Rocky’s body through a gap under his armor.

“Ahh~!” Rocky scread in pain, staggering even more.

They were fully prepared.

There was no chance of victory for him.

Rocky knelt helplessly on the ground, his face twisted as he said, “It was all Fisher’s idea, go find him, let go!”

“If you were the victor, would you let go? Don’t worry, Fisher will soon join you.”

Bawudong stepped forward, about to kill him.

Rocky suddenly sprang up, holding the iron sword once more, charging at Wu Heng.

Basen blocked him. Wu Heng raised his hand and fired two more shots, hitting him in the body and the head.

Rocky’s eyes bulged, his face filled with unwillingness, he fell to the ground.

“Strip him and search his body,” Wu Heng ordered.

Basen crouched down, stripped off his armor, and found a money bag. Inside were two gold coins and several hundred silver coins.

Who would have thought he’d be so rich?

Creak~!

A mont later, the door was pushed open, and Wen Mansha entered.

Seeing the body on the floor, her face also turned a few shades paler.

If she had reacted slower last ti, she would have t the sa fate as Rocky.

“Master!” Wen Mansha called out softly.

“Mmm.”

“There were so people outside attracted by the noise; I’ve dismissed them.” Wen Mansha took a few steps forward, clutching his arm.

They must have been attracted by the gunfire.

But it wasn’t a big deal in the Outer City Area.

There weren’t few gangs that had fights at night; any excuse would do, and no one would care.

“Hmm, Rocky is dead, do you have any plans?” Wu Heng asked, resting his hand on her shoulder.

“When the ti cos, I’ll say Rocky left again. I’ll manage things for now, and gradually replace so people with my own to take control of the Pinned Gang,” replied Wen Mansha.

Wu Heng nodded, “Good, as long as you have a plan.”

He then looked at the body, “Take him to the backyard.”

Basen dragged the body to a patch of ground in the yard.

Wu Heng cast the Bone Manipulation Skill. Flesh fell away, and a skeleton slowly stood up.

Wen Mansha’s face turned even paler. She involuntarily backed away a couple steps, cautiously hiding behind Wu Heng.

Their bond was unbreakable, and out of instinct, they trusted and stuck to each other even more.

[Skeleton Warrior (LVL 10)]

Rockey was indeed a Level 10 warrior.

Looking at his attributes, it was evident he was a traditional warrior, with a focus on strength and constitution. Nothing particularly special.

Wu Heng explained, “I am a necromancer. He is now a servant of the necromancy. Are you scared?”

“No, I’m not scared. I’ve seen my fair share in the Pinned Gang,” she replied confidently.

“Good, then let him stay by your side to protect you,” Wu Heng continued.

Wen Mansha looked at the skeleton, then at Wu Heng, and said softly, “Master, aren’t you staying the night?”

Wu Heng pinched her cheek, “I have other things to do. You take care of things here, I’ll co to see you later.”

“Yes, Master,” she answered.

Wu Heng nodded, then left with Basen Bawudong.

Wen Mansha started to clean up the room.

…

The night deepened.

The sky was so dark it felt like a heavy curtain, making it impossible to see even one’s hand before them.

Deep in the heart of the city, outside a certain residence.

A yawning patrol of the Iron Guard Knights passed outside the community, gradually moving off into the distance.

Out of the blue, a skeletal arm materialised from the darkness.

A censer with three lit incense sticks was placed at the edge of the building.

Trails of green smoke rose up and seeped into the building in front of it.

This was a tool of the Pinned Gang, the Hallucination Incense Burner.

Once the incense burned and was inhaled by living beings for a certain period, it would induce extre fatigue, and even manipulate the senses.

After the smoke persisted for a while, everything around remained silent.

The skeletal arm materialised once more, lifting the lid of a cast-iron well by the road.

Rustling~!

The sound of countless scrambling feet filled the air.

The next mont, a massive horde of rats gushed out of the well like floodwater, rushing towards the distant building.

The rodent horde flowed directly into the building.

This was followed by the squealing of the rats and painful howls and screams.

Lights gradually lit up in the surrounding buildings.

Soon, the cries from the room ceased, the horde of rats poured out of the building and disappeared back into the sewer.

The skeletal arm gathered up the incense burner.

And disappeared into the night.

…

Co morning, at the scene where Fisher was found dead.

Inside the small room, Butler Goz was standing to one side, forcibly suppressing his rage.

“A senior captain actually died in his own house,” Goz scanned the room with his eyes, “This is a disgrace to our Association. You all are captains of the Association, is this how you maintain order?”

Opposite him, all the captains of the Association stood in silence, heads bowed.

This morning, before Wu Heng left his house, he was inford by a staff mber to co here.

Fisher’s death was grueso, his body covered in countless bite marks as if torn apart by countless jaws, scraps of animal flesh and fur still scattered around.

The death of a captain of the Association was not sothing to be proud of.

The news, when it got out, would affect the Association’s prestige and reputation.

However, against Butler Goz’s scolding, the captains felt aggrieved.

After all, maintaining peace in the night was not their responsibility but the Iron Guard rcenary Corps’.

But with the Butler livid, no one dared to argue for fear of taking the bla.

Goz continued, “Aside from the squads assisting the knight corps to drive away the Hamr Party, all other squads must investigate this incident. I want a detailed report within three days. Those who fail will have a month’s salary docked.”

Everyone shot each other a glance in silence.

Seeing the captains still silent with heads down, Goz gritted his teeth and said, “Dismissed. Go about your duties.”

The captains left one by one.

Goz’s gaze settled on one figure amongst them.

“Wu Heng, stay behind.”
