Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse

Yuri opened the lid of the instant noodles, sucked the noodles, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay!" Wu Heng said then.

The records in the Necronomicon are still a bit unbelievable.

It shouldn't be such a coincidence.

How long have you been in Blackstone Town?

Several consecutive missions were actually able to match the records above.

The matter of the Yingling in the Mining Village is based on the mine owner's own explanation.

Someone told him how to cultivate ghosts three years ago.

Because ghosts are involved, this matter is directly characterized as being done by a 'necromancer'.

So, the person behind this matter started preparing for this matter at least three years ago.

And after the infant spirit was obtained.

Bawudong of the Divine Punishment Sect, a warlock who stole children, came to Blackstone Town one after another to give away their heads.

What happened is too easy to make people suspicious.

The necromancer who died last night should be the stall owner I met in the black market.

Judging from the things he sold and the many rotten corpses he transformed, he should have become a necromancer very early.

Moreover, he had no chance to lay out and collect these things.

So why did he die?

"What were you talking about when you came in just now?" Wu Heng asked Xiang Yuli.

"What did I say?" Yuli looked up with noodles hanging in her mouth.

"What did your aunt do?"

"Oh, my aunt is out and busy, so I came to play with you." Yuli said.

"You also said, why don't you kill the necromancer?" Wu Heng continued to ask.

Yuri frowned for a moment before reacting and said: "Oh! The kingdom and the association take this matter very seriously. If this necromancer is not caught, an investigation team will be sent over."

The kingdom still attaches great importance to the Necromancer.

Force Blackstone Town to give a result.

Therefore, a necromancer must die.

Wu Heng felt his hair standing on end.

"What happened to you?" Yuri asked again.

Wu Heng wanted to tell her about his findings to relieve his psychological pressure.

But he still kept his mouth shut.

It is not difficult for the Whisperers to fully grasp the information about Bawudong and the child-stealing warlock, plus Slater's power in Blackstone Town.

The layout is not difficult either.

"It's okay, just asking." Wu Heng closed the book in his hand and said with a smile.

"Aren't you going to eat it?" Yuri looked at his instant noodles.

"eat!"

He opened the lid and started eating noodles while chatting with Yuri.

…

noon.

There was a knock on the door of the residence.

Someone from the association informed them that they should go to the association to burn the body.

There were a lot of dead bodies last night. With the weather and the threat of the Necromancer, we still need to burn them as soon as possible.

But after Wu Heng had already suspected that the Necromancer was just a scapegoat, he felt that this was deliberately destroying evidence.

However, he had no conclusive evidence for any of this.

Moreover, the people in the association and the city hall are no longer reliable.

Come to the association all the way with Yuri.

Entering the lounge, Altluk and Kavina had already arrived early.

Seeing the two people coming in, Altluk smiled and said: "Wu Heng, these are the books that were found from the Necromancer's stone castle yesterday. The association can give them to you first to read, and then return them to the association. , as a commission reward.”

As he spoke, he took out a few skill books and placed them on the table.

There are three skill books in total.

They were all old and yellowed and looked older than him.

[Corpse Spell] [Evil Explosion Technique] [Fireball Technique].

For the two Necromancer factions, Fireball should be an attack skill.

[Corpse Slaying Technique] is a spell that enslaves rotting corpses. It is the same skill as your own 'Bone Slaying Technique'.

In fact, the difference is not too big.

However, the rotting corpse itself has a very serious disease effect. In fact, among the living necromancers, the 'bone-slaking technique' is used more often.

[Evil Explosion Technique] is also the same trick that used last night's corpse explosion and release of poisonous mist. When I saw the introduction of the 'Necronomicon', I felt that it was nothing.

But the effect on the scene is still a bit exaggerated, and it feels very useful for treating living creatures.

The Book of the Dead also records a kind of 'corpse explosion technique'. The corpse begins to explode with great power.

Basically, there is no solution.

The rotten corpses charge forward. You have to fight them or not. If you don't fight them, they will chase them. If you kill them, they will explode. They can also kill you.

Finally, there is [Fireball]. The fireball in front of you is not the initial skill in the game, but a high-level skill.

After the explosion, a stream of flames will be produced, burning the surrounding area.

Overall, except for [Corpse Subjugation Technique], the other two are pretty good.

"Oh, okay, thank you." Wu Heng put away the three skill books.

Altluk continued: "The rewards and meritorious deeds this time will be distributed after the statistics. It may take some time."

"Well, we're not in a hurry." Yuri replied happily.

Altluk nodded, continued to look at Wu Heng, and said: "Your meritorious service should be higher. If you can get another level 3 meritorious service, it is entirely possible that you will be appointed captain by the headquarters in advance. Then you can also have A member of my own team.”

"Our team is very good." Wu Heng said.

Yuri thought for a moment and said: "Captain, what about our achievements?"

"We will also have it, but it will be lower than Wuheng."

After all, it was the Necromancer who was killed by Wu Heng in the end, so his merits would be higher. If the others didn't have any special performance, their merits would also be there but not too high.

If all the merits are given the same, then this thing will be useless.

"Oh, that's okay." Yuri thought for a while and said, "You want to be the captain, and I will be your vice-captain."

Wu Heng rolled his eyes at her and said directly: "It would be great if you asked the captain to give you a vice-captain now. Why wait for me?"

"No, you are too incompetent and need someone to help you."

"I don't know who is worse!"

Several people chatted in the room for a while.

The teams began to gather and prepare to burn the bodies.

The body was placed outside the city, and the team went directly over to confirm the identity and burn it directly.

The fourth team went directly out of the city and came to the burning point.

Altluk checked the bodies and found that there were no problems, then piled them all on the pile of wood.

Wu Heng glanced at these corpses, cast a [Grease Technique] on them, and then lit them.

Huh~!

Fire shot into the sky.

Everyone quickly retreated and opened up a certain distance.

After all, it was the summons of the Necromancer, and no one was sure whether another corpse would explode or release poisonous gas or something.

Fire shot into the sky and the firewood crackled.

There was a grease spell to ignite it, and there was no need to fill it with firewood, so the body was almost completely burned.

After the bodies were burned and the scene was dealt with, the team began to return.

Yuri held Kavina's arm, talking and laughing.

It seemed that after the death of the necromancer, everything became normal and had no impact on anyone.

…

Returning to the association, each team went home to recuperate.

Yuri was called away by her aunt.

Wu Heng went directly to the front desk of the lobby and asked about the production status of the corpse core detoxification potion.

The staff began to look through the record book.

He smiled and said: "Mr. Wu Heng, the production of the two potions has been completed. Please wait a moment!"

All done.

With a formula, the production of potions is very efficient.

It is much faster than development.

After a while, the staff came back.

Holding two boxes in hand.

"Mr. Wu Heng, this is a commissioned potion." The staff respectfully placed the box on the table.

Wu Heng opened the medicine box and saw the two medicines inside.

[Special Antidote] [Shouzhi Antidote Mixture]

After confirming that there were no discrepancies in the medicine, I paid the remaining balance.

Taking the potion, he walked out of the association.

After returning to the residence, close the door and ask Basson to guard the door.

Wu Heng placed the second-level corpse core and the potion on the table.

I simply cleaned it up and swallowed it directly.

A strong mental pressure suddenly rushed into his brain, as if there was an invisible force tearing at his spiritual consciousness.

"Damn, the symptoms are different."

Wu Heng felt bad for a moment.

The symptoms were completely different from the last time I took Level 2 Corpse Core.

Without daring to think too much, he immediately opened the potion and drank it down.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, drink it first and then talk about it.

A cool feeling rushed into my brain instantly, but it only relieved some of the mental pressure.

The feeling of being constantly stretched and torn is still there.

My ears were ringing and my vision was blurry.

The skeleton Bassen on the side began to tremble with "clucking" because it was connected to Wu Heng's spiritual power.

It's like it's falling apart.

"No!" Wu Heng suppressed the pressure, opened the other two bottles of special antidote, and drank it all.

Ordinary potions also have some effects.

Wu Heng hugged his head with both arms and gritted his teeth.

It seems like a lot has passed.

The prompt appeared vaguely in the ear.

[Perception +5, Intelligence +7, Charm +5.]

[Unlock ability: strengthen will]

After the pain passed, Wu Heng panted heavily, and large beads of sweat wetted his clothes, dripping to the ground.

At this point, the sense of mental stress begins to gradually diminish, accompanied by a stronger sense of perception.

Even without looking specifically, you can feel everything in the room.

The effect of the corpse core was still significant, but for just a moment, he really thought he was going to die.

If he became a zombie, he would probably be a level two zombie.

In the zombie world, you can be a leader or something, but in this world, you may be killed, the body sent for research, and the remaining parts are sold as materials on the black market.

Somewhat scary.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Heng sat up straight.

Start looking at the attribute changes brought about by the corpse core.

The first is an increase in Wisdom, Intelligence, and Charisma.

These three attributes are potential attributes, unlike physique and strength that are expressed on the body.

Intelligence directly affects the mage's spellcasting, as well as his own memory and logical thinking abilities.

Every mage is a scholar, which means that this profession has a certain intellectual threshold and needs to understand the contents of various books and records.

Perception is the quantification of intuition and insight, while charm represents more personal temperament, and priority in choosing a mate is also important.

For example, if you get 'Slater', you will be an upper-class person who has no worries about food and clothing in Blackstone Town.

Finally, an ability is unlocked.

[Strengthening Will]: Strengthen personal will, establish will barriers, and block and disintegrate negative effects that infringe on personal will.

Wu Heng frowned.

According to Modern World Radio, he should have unlocked his superpower.

It's just that the abilities in front of me are passive abilities.

It should have some effect in a different world, but in the zombie world it may not have much effect.

Even the big-headed zombies were not found to be able to affect his will.

It’s not the same as the imagined superpower.

It feels useless.

But something is better than nothing.

There is nothing to choose from.

If you collect more corpse cores in the future, you might be able to unlock special abilities.

After tidying up the surroundings, Wu Heng changed into clean clothes.

Dong dong dong~!

The door was knocked again.

Wu Heng opened the door while fastening the buttons.

I thought it was Yuri who came to have dinner with me, but I found a staff member of the association standing at the door.

"Deacon, please come over."

deacon?

"Okay." Wu Heng nodded. It should be about the merits and rewards of this mission.

Altluk said that his merits were higher than others.

After simply tidying up, I went out directly.

Walking out of the alley, I told the landlord that if the curly-haired girl came, she would say that she was going to the association.

After saying that, he took Bassen and walked towards the association.

…

At this time, there were no people in the association.

The hall was empty and a little cold.

Wu Heng came to the deacon's study, knocked on the door and entered the room.

The entire study room is still neat and tidy.

"Deacon Yazd."

"Well, sit down!" the deacon said with a smile.

Wu Heng sat down aside.

Yazd continued to ask: "How does it feel to be in the association?"

"Not bad, pretty good."

"Your growth rate also surprises me. I didn't expect that you could kill the Necromancer last night." Yazd leaned on the back of the chair and said softly.

"It's just a fluke." Wu Heng looked at the other party and felt that the tone of the deacon's speech today was a bit strange.

It was as if he was about to release the depression in his heart and hold back his excitement.

Yazd stood up with his cane and continued: "Do you have any other wishes?"
