Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse
Chapter 725, Negotiating Remuneration (Updated today.)
Shanara sat down aside, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
He said calmly, "You have also seen the content in the newspaper. Wu Heng obviously wants to help you gain some advantages in the competition for the throne."
Brittany frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
"You should tie yourself to him to have any hope of getting the throne back."
Brittany shook her head, "I talked about this matter with the owner of Wuheng Island, but he didn't seem to have any intention of helping me fight for the throne. He only said that as long as I stay on Treasure Island, he would protect my safety."
Shanara smiled softly, "You can promise more. With his age and the speed of level up, he will definitely reach level 18. Any country and royal family will recruit him. It will be good for you if you make some promises in advance. There is nothing to lose, after all, those are yours only when you sit on the throne."
Brittany's eyes widened, but she didn't say the words that came to her lips.
After hesitating for a moment, he still said: "I understand, thank you Madam Shannara for reminding me."
…
Zombie world.
Wu Heng took the truck and began to return to the shopping mall in the central area.
In the afternoon, Li Yahong took him to several factories to check the learning results of the skeletons.
After confirming that normal production was possible, some machinists were arranged to start labeling and recording the machinery.
It will be disassembled and packed and will be transported to a different world factory.
After all, where the raw materials are purchased, it will save a lot of trouble.
"Is there any progress in the development of pills?"
Li Yahong replied while driving, "No news has been sent back yet. I'll ask when I get back."
Wu Heng nodded and said nothing more.
The skeleton alchemist is conducting research there, and there is no possibility of slacking off.
So there is nothing to do to urge it.
"At the reception desk, should we make an appointment directly or postpone it later?" Li Yahong asked again.
"Ask their opinions, we can do it at any time."
"I'll ask them what they think first and try to get them to come over as much as possible."
"good!"
The two chatted casually and started to return to the central area.
Li Yahong went to do her own business.
Wu Heng also returned to his dormitory, opened the gate, and returned to Treasure Island.
…
Out of bounds.
Wu Heng released the three ghosts to move freely, and then went downstairs and walked outside.
Before she even reached the first floor, Minnie came over and said, "Master, Philippa has contacted you on the radio."
"I'll go take a look." Wu Heng went upstairs again and walked into the radio station's room.
I looked at the record book of the skeleton investigation, and there was a string of 'Are you there?' written on it by Philippa.
As soon as I saw these words, I knew that there was nothing serious.
Still picking up the phone, he asked: "Philippa, can you hear me?"
Soon, Philippa's voice came over, "I'm here, what were you doing during the day?"
"I went out, did something happen?" Wu Heng asked.
"Today, Tapani, Gianvito and the dwarf investigator came to see me. They asked me to contact you and order some newspapers." Philippa said directly.
"They want to subscribe to newspapers? What's the use?"
"I heard that they wanted to transport it back to the clan. They probably wanted to use the popularity of the newspaper to increase their reputation." Philippa replied and followed the analysis.
This matter is not difficult to guess.
There are also roles for the three of them in the story.
Especially this time, the Kingdom's army surrounded and killed the Association's investigation team. This incident itself was huge news, plus it was a great detective story.
It will definitely generate buzz and increase their reputation.
Of course, this also helps me.
Wu Heng is the protagonist, and his reputation will be increased even more.
"How much do you want to order? I need to print more overnight." Wu Heng asked.
"Tapani and the dwarf both want to order 10,000 copies, and Tapani wants to order 20,000 copies," Philippa said directly.
"I will print it today and arrange for a ship to be sent there. The price is calculated as 55 copper coins, which is the price of cooperation with the large chamber of commerce." Wu Heng said directly.
"Okay, I'll go talk to them later." Philippa agreed, and then whispered: "Can I go back? It's so boring here, and I miss you a little."
"Is there nothing going on over there?"
"It's okay. There are no problems on the route. The association has also arranged a naval cruise. Now it's none of my business. Give me some free time. It's even more boring than when I was on Treasure Island." Philippa complained.
Philippa stayed there, mainly responsible for the safety of the route.
It seems that no one will cause trouble on the route at this time and attract the attention of the association.
Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing going on over there. I'll just come back and stay for a few days." Wu Heng
"Really! Then I'll go back after I finish talking to them about the newspaper."
"Tell Tapani in advance and just go patrol the route, don't come back and rest." Wu Heng asked again.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid." Philippa continued, "I won't tell you anymore. I'll go tell them about it."
Before Wu Heng could answer, the other party had already hung up the contact.
Wu Heng looked at the communications from several other radio stations and confirmed that no one had left any messages for him.
He left the room and walked downstairs.
…
The next day, morning.
Wu Heng and the corpse magic weapon master stood in front of the island factory, looking at the busy skeleton weapon masters inside.
This morning, various equipment was transported to the factory here through the boundary gate.
The mechanics also began to assemble them according to the previous numbers and records.
"Master, do you have drawings for these equipment?" The ghoul mechanic 'Costas' asked calmly.
"These are not available. You can study them. Just don't break them." Wu Heng said directly.
Learning the knowledge of drawings is also helpful for the improvement of mechanics.
Especially the machinery in the modern world is very different from the machinery in the other world.
It is easier to bring enlightenment or learn new related knowledge.
"Thank you, Master." Costas thanked.
"Are all the equipment for the power plant in Neitale City ready?" Wu Heng asked again.
Costas nodded, "It's still being prepared. It is expected to be fully ready within a week."
"Let me know when it's ready and I'll arrange for you to go there."
In a week, Philippa almost came back from there.
At that time, they can be arranged to go together, and it will be safer to handle things.
"Okay, sir."
"I'll leave this to you, just go find me." Wu Heng said, and called a carriage to return to the island owner's mansion.
...
After returning to the island owner's mansion.
Wu Heng returned to the study, opened the boundary gate and returned to the zombie world.
On the other side of the boundary gate, the factory in the zombie world had been emptied, leaving only a mess.
Walking out of the factory yard, Li Yahong and the convoy were waiting not far away.
"Let's go!" Wu Heng walked over and sat directly on the co-pilot.
Li Yahong also got in the car, and after giving the order, the convoy started slowly.
"Just now, there was a message from the radio station that the people from the headquarters are on the way, and they will arrive at the train station around 2 pm."
"So urgent?" Wu Heng was a little surprised.
"I guess the ghost has no solution at all, so he wants to come here so anxiously." Li Yahong said with a smile.
"Let's go, then let's go directly to the train station, there is not much time left." Wu Heng said directly.
Li Yahong picked up the walkie-talkie and gave an order.
The convoy turned at the intersection in front and rushed towards the train station.
…
Around 2:30 pm.
The train arrived at the station.
These two trains were from the Xinfu City base, used to transport materials between the city and Yangtong.
The door opened, and three people walked down quickly. The leader was ‘Lü Chang’an’, with whom he had dealt several times.
The third-level commander of the station, specializing in the transactions with Wu Heng.
The two people behind were also young and strong, and they should be acting as bodyguards.
Someone came out of the platform and led the way for the three people.
They walked directly into a room in the station.
When the door opened, they saw Wu Heng and Li Yahong sitting on the inside.
“Chief Wu!” Lü Chang’an forced a smile.
“Commander-in-Chief Lu!” Wu Heng stood up and shook hands with the other party.
“Chief Wu, I heard that your special ability has the effect of restraining ghosts. I need your help in this matter.” Lü Chang’an got straight to the point and said directly.
“Commander-in-Chief Lu, anyone who encounters a ghost is in danger.” Wu Heng looked embarrassed.
"Leader Wu can set the conditions. I can agree to them directly within my authority. I can't do anything beyond my authority." Lu Changan continued.
Compared to the previous transactions, Lu Changan didn't say a word of nonsense after he came in.
All of them were about dealing with ghosts.
"I need modern technology, give me some high-tech talents." Wu Heng said directly.
Lu Changan frowned instantly, "Leader Wu, I can't agree to you at all, and I can't tie people up for you."
Wu Heng continued, "What is your authority, just tell me directly."
"I will give you 500 first-level corpse cores and two armored vehicles as the reward for this time." Lu Changan said.
Wu Heng shook his head, "I want five third-level corpse cores, ten armored vehicles, and whatever technology I need, you must provide me with corresponding training and help."
"I promised you about the training. You want too many armored vehicles. I can provide you with five at most, and I can give you two more third-level corpse cores, a total of seven." Lu Changan said.
Seeing that the other party was straightforward, Wu Heng didn't plan to say anything more and agreed directly, "Okay, I don't have any objections."
"Then you see, can we set off now? This matter is still quite urgent. When we return, we can pay you the reward first." Lu Changan said.
Wu Heng glanced at Li Yahong, and then at Lu Changan and the other two, "Commander Lu, you go back to the car and wait for a while. I need to make some arrangements here. Then we will go together."
"Okay, then we will wait for you in the car." Lu Changan stood up and walked out directly.
Li Yahong said, "Will it be dangerous to go directly there?"
"It's unlikely, but you have to be careful. I will let Xiaoxiao keep an eye on them. When we get to Yangtong City, we will use our plane to go there."
"I'll go with you!"
"No, you stay and look after the house. I can tell you to do anything if there is anything."
Li Yahong thought about it and nodded.
Wu Heng made some preparations, walked out of the building, got on the train and rushed to Yangtong City together.
...
On the train
Lu Changan and the other two sat opposite each other, while Wu Heng sat alone on one side, with two skeleton attendants standing beside him.
"How did the ghost meet?" Wu Heng asked directly.
Lü Changan sighed, thought for a moment, and said, "We have a base that was attacked by ghosts. The personnel wanted to retreat, but found that the ghosts were still with the team."
It seems that this group of personnel is more important.
Let the headquarters pay such a high price to let him help.
Wu Heng nodded, "What about the means of attack?"
"The means of attack is to seize the control of the body of a person to attack others. We basically have no means to deal with it." Lü Changan replied.
Possession is the basic characteristic of ghosts, and there is nothing special about it.
But for humans in this world, possession is basically unsolvable.
Even if you control the possessed person, the ghost will immediately possess the next one, and you still have no way to solve it.
Being targeted means waiting for death.
"We also invited a few Taoist temples, the kind with certificates." Lü Changan said again.
Wu Heng looked up curiously, "How is the effect?"
If they can come to him again, it must be that they have not solved it.
But he was also curious about whether some of the Taoist magic or talismans would work.
"It's not very effective. I'm not sure if it's really effective or just a psychological effect. The news is that it has reduced the intensity of the ghost's control over the body." Lu Changan replied.
Judging from the other party's words, the Taoist priest did not have a significant effect.
Even if it really had an effect, it did not meet the requirements of a professional.
Wu Heng stopped asking about this matter.
Instead, he said, "Where are the people you mentioned trapped?"
"There is an airport in Xinggu City where you can land. Since there are ghosts following, this team is stationed in the wild and should not have changed its position."
"Okay, I see." Wu Heng nodded.
"Is Chief Wu sure?" Lu Changan continued to ask.
Wu Heng thought for a while, "At present, there should be no problem. Let's see the situation when the time comes!"
The train moved forward.
A few hours later, it entered Yangtong City.
Gao Rong was already waiting at the airport, arranging the base's plane and more than a dozen skeleton flying dragons.
The pilots of the base's planes are trained skeletons, and they have completed several flight experiments, with no problems at all.
After some preparation.
Lu Changan also boarded his own plane and took one at the same time.
Soon, the plane of the headquarters left.
The plane of the base also took off, accompanied by several flying dragons, and followed.
...
Rentam City.
The Skeleton Knight galloped all the way, rushed directly into the city gate, and headed for the City Lord's Mansion.
After entering the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, he turned over and dismounted, and handed the letter in his hand to Wen Mansha.
Wen Mansha sat on the throne of the City Lord, feeding her child while taking the letter.
Letter?
It was still the letter used by the association.
He handed it to the butler beside him and said, "Open it and see who wrote it?"
The butler tore open the envelope, glanced at the content on it and said, "It's a letter written by Deacon Slater. It says that Master Wu Heng arranged a spy to investigate the intelligence of the cult. Recently, the news was passed to her. I hope you can pass the news to Wu Heng."
"Cult? Where did the news pass to Slater?" Wen Mansha's brows were still frowned.
"Erjiluo City in Yeke Kingdom."
The army of Neitalei City surrounded and killed the headquarters investigation team, which was related to the cult.
This time, the news of the cult came again. Yeke Kingdom has really become a cult nest.
He gently stroked the child, "After eating, go to sleep. I'll go and tell Dad the news."
He handed the child to the housekeeper and wiped his chest covered with the child's saliva with a handkerchief.
He stuffed his clothes back and turned to go upstairs.
He came to the radio room and picked up the microphone, "Master, Deacon Slater sent a piece of information about the cult in Erjiluo City."
He sat in front of the radio and waited for a while, but saw that no news came back.
So he got up and went downstairs.
...
"Chief Wu, the convoy is ready, we can go there at any time." Lu Changan said directly.
It took only two hours to reach the city mentioned by 'Lu Changan'.
Different from the city recovered by Wu Heng.
This side looks more like a modern battlefield, which has been baptized by artillery fire.
Collapsed houses, craters and broken walls.
It was still a bit miserable.
Wu Heng said, "No, you come with me on the flying dragon, and the others don't need to follow. Too many people will cause problems."
He stretched out his hand and several flying skeleton dragons squatted and lowered their heads. Wu Heng sat on them directly.
Then he signaled Lu Changan to follow.
Lu Changan opened his eyes wide and looked at the flying skeleton dragons, but he didn't move his feet for a long time.
