The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 875 - 875 706 What Xiao Xiao Said to You

Chapter 875: Chapter 706, What Xiao Xiao Said to You Chapter 875: Chapter 706, What Xiao Xiao Said to You “Steward!” Wu Heng also ntioned the position.

Xi Ligui continued, “Mini told that the investigation team was attacked by the Netalee City army. Were you hurt?”

“No, the investigation team is safe. So mbers who were injured have been treated,” replied Wu Heng.

“That’s good!” Xi Ligui breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Shi Yali’s voice ca from the other side, “Ask him when he is coming back.”

Xi Ligui relayed, “Shi Yali is asking when you’ll be back.”

Shi Yali imdiately said, “I asked for you.”

“I see you’re in more of a hurry than I am.”

Ignoring the sisters’ bickering, Wu Heng said, “It might take so ti. The Elder’s intent is to wait for the orders from the headquarters to arrive before we act accordingly.”

It wasn’t just Tapani’s idea; it was a collective decision made by all the mbers of the association.

Wu Heng included.

Otherwise, once the people from the association left, the city might end up in even more disorder, with more people dying.

“Then you be careful,” Xi Ligui instructed.

“Don’t worry, if there’s any danger, the Elders will be out front,” Wu Heng said, then asked, “No problems on Gold and Silver Island, right?”

“No issues. A few fugitives have co onto the island recently, but they have all been apprehended by the association. Everything is safe,” Xi Ligui said with a smile.

“With you in charge, I’m always at ease.”

Xi Ligui’s tone carried a smile, “You always know what to say. I just wanted to check on you. As long as you’re safe, we’ll talk when you get back.”

“Alright, once I get back, I’ll bring you gifts.”

There was no response from the other side; the call was disconnected.

Xi Ligui using the Island Lord’s Mansion for a personal call was sowhat unexpected.

It didn’t quite match her character.

But it still made him sowhat happy, proving that she was worried about him.

After sitting in his chair for a while, the sky grew darker.

Wu Heng greeted a few Ghosts before returning to his room to rest.

…

Early in the morning.

It was the third day of the Fifth Princess managing Netalee City.

The city was still desolate, but compared to before, there was a slight improvent—so shops on the comrcial street had started to open.

However, the goods were scarce; more often, they were just cleaning up the rooms.

The Fifth Princess herself had many tasks to attend to: assigning officials, processing city data, and overseeing the overall situation.

She claid she was afraid of not doing well, having never done this before.

But her actions were fairly comndable, with clear plans on what to do first and what to do next.

Being born into the Royal Family, she sowhat understood these processes by exposure.

Wu Heng also arranged Skeleton Guards for her, following her around everywhere.

At the association, Elder Tapani promptly assigned tasks to everyone in the morning.

The level 15 professionals and the association’s team mbers were all given assignnts.

Besides normal patrolling within the city, so teams were tasked with taking Skeletons and investigating the surrounding villages.

Wu Heng wasn’t assigned any tasks.

This could be interpreted as tasks relevant to him being delegated to the Skeletons and Philippa.

He would rather he just stayed put sowhere reliable, not running around all the ti.

…

After the eting.

Wu Heng followed the crowd out.

Veteran Mage Gianvito quickly caught up with him, “Wu Heng, now that you’ve learned the skills, give back the book.”

Wu Heng imdiately produced the [Teleportation Technique], “Thank you, principal.”

Gianvito tucked the book away and then asked, looking at him, “Have you studied knowledge related to curse magic before?”

Wu Heng was montarily startled, “I know one or two basic spells from the Curse Magic Faction.”

“No wonder you had so basics,” Gianvito stroked his beard, then asked further, “You’re a Necromancer; why are you studying spells from other factions?”

Wu Heng responded while walking, “Previously in the Yeko Kingdom, although I changed my profession to Necromancer, I hadn’t had the chance to learn relevant skills, so I just picked up a bit here and there.”

Gianvito nodded, which seed to fit his growth history.

But it was still surprising—his learning capacity really wasn’t low.

Seeing that Gianvito had no response, Wu Heng continued, “Principal, do you have other books? Lend them to to take a look.”

Gianvito looked at him again, “What will you give in exchange this ti?”

“A watch!” Wu Heng lowered his voice, “The sa model as the heroes, but a different design.”

Gianvito squinted, “How would I know what the heroes look like?”

“These watches are all manufactured by ; there’s no need to lie.”

“Hmm, that’s true.”

Gianvito flipped his hand, pulling out a skill book from his Space Ring, “Here, take this. Return it after you’re done.”

[Summoning Thunder Skill]

(Description: Generates thundercloud weather within the casting range. Designate a point you can see under that thundercloud, causing one or multiple lightning bolts to strike from the cloud to that point. If you are within the thundercloud area, both effect and efficiency double, and consumption decreases.)

Wu Heng’s eyebrows raised.

The veteran mage’s signature spell could call down lightning from the sky to strike people.

Having fought alongside Gianvito several tis, he had seen him use this skill.

The difference was whether it struck one person or a row of people.

Actually, Wu Heng felt that, in terms of attack types, his [Lightning Bolt Spell] was very similar.

The [Lightning Bolt Spell] released a horizontal bolt of lightning that struck the target, producing an effect of thunder and lightning after hitting.

The [Summoning Thunder Skill] was like the lightning that fell from the sky on a rainy day.

Gianvito was so reliant on this skill, it surely had to be quite useful.

Wu Heng first tucked away the Skill Book, then said, “Dean, do you have any more? We’re so familiar with each other now, having shared life and death experiences. Lend a couple more.”

Gianvito hesitated for a mont, then took out another one and handed it to him, “Don’t always think about learning everything, energy is limited. Both of these books are not easy to learn, give up if you can’t.”

[Summon Arrow Rain]

(Description: You shoot a non-magical ammunition into the air or throw a non-magical throwing weapon, using it as a prototype to shoot a cluster of the sa type of weapons forward into a conical area, which will disappear after attacking.)

Hmm?

Upon seeing this second Skill Book, Wu Heng’s gaze sharpened.

Non-magical ammunition or non-magical throwing weapons shoot forward into a cluster of the sa type of weapons.

What kind of skill was this?

It seed he had never seen Gianvito use it.

“Thanks a lot!” Wu Heng said as he took them.

Gianvito still instructed, “Don’t damage or lose them. Give them back to before we part ways.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll flip through them gently.”

“Alright, just be careful.”

The two walked through the corridor then parted ways.

Wu Heng walked straight out of the association back to the City Lord’s Mansion.

…

When he arrived back at the City Lord’s Mansion, there was no one at ho.

Wu Heng returned to the study with a few ghosts and then directly headed to the Zombie World.

As the temperature rose, the room grew sowhat stuffy.

He opened the windows to ventilate, let the ghosts out, one went to find his mother while the other two moved around nearby.

Taking up a walkie-talkie, he spoke, “Qi Hancai, is the ship ready?”

“Ready, we can depart at any ti,” ca the voice of Qi Hancai.

The previous day Qi Hancai had reported the developnt of the other bases.

The military factory was assembling a Machine Cannon production line, and Li Yahong was also waiting for the Skeleton Alchemy Warlock to arrive and work on the developnt of pill tablets.

Plus, he hadn’t been seen for a while and needed to go back to check.

“Okay, I’ll be down in a bit,” Wu Heng said.

“Understood.”

He sat in the room and waited for a while.

Mini was the first to fly back, “Uncle, did you finish translating the new Skill Books?”

“They’re translated.”

“My mom just got off work, I’ve asked her to co pick them up.” Mini said, then turned and passed through the wall to leave.

About three or four minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

Wu Heng opened it, and saw Mini’s mother, Zhao Yanqiu, standing at the doorstep.

She wore a white blouse, a dark blue long skirt below, and light makeup. On her delicate and fair neck hung a pearl necklace with a single pearl.

She held her head down, giving off a gentle and mature allure.

The profession of Bard suited her, enhancing her charm even more than before.

“King, Mini sent to pick up the Skill Books,” Zhao Yanqiu said with her head still lowered.

“Co in, I’ve prepared several Skill Books for you,” Wu Heng stepped aside.

Zhao Yanqiu walked in with small steps.

Wu Heng took out a few Skill Books, saying, “Sit down, let tell you about these Skill Books.”

Zhao Yanqiu gathered her skirt and sat down on a nearby chair, whispering softly, “Okay.”

Wu Heng continued, “These four Skill Books, the first one, a Communication Skill, allows you to send a ssage to a specified target. It’s like sending them a voice ssage that outsiders can’t hear.

The remaining three are for enhancing your own status—this one increases courage, this one increases the range of your voice, and this last one improves language skills.”

Zhao Yanqiu listened in astonishnt.

Private ssage sending felt like a scene from a fantasy drama.

The remaining three could enhance her own states.

“Are they hard to learn?” Zhao Yanqiu hesitated.

Mini imdiately said, “If it’s Uncle, he learns pretty easily, but Mom, you…, um…, just try your best.”

Zhao Yanqiu glared at her.

Wu Heng smiled and said, “You’re just starting, so it’s normal to learn slowly. Take your ti, it’s okay if you can’t master them.”

Mini pouted.

“Thank you, Your Majesty,” Zhao Yanqiu thanked.

Mini flipped from her lying position and then said, “Uncle, where’s that ring you bought for Mom?”

Wu Heng took out a [Universal Language Ring], “This is for you, it will assist in your profession.”

Mini imdiately added, “Mom, Uncle carefully picked this out just for you, the most beautiful one.”

Zhao Yanqiu suddenly looked up, saying, “Mini, step outside for a while, I need to speak with your uncle alone.”

“What is there that you need to discuss behind my back!” Mini protested.

Wu Heng chuckled, “Mini, next, we are heading to the military factory. Go call them back.”

Mini glanced at the two, “Alright.”

With that, she passed through the wall and left.

Zhao Yanqiu still had her head lowered, speaking softly, “I am aware of all the kindness you’ve shown to and my daughter, I don’t know how to make the right choice.”

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, “What did Mini tell you?”
