The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse-Chapter 500 - 413, Ghost’s Notebook

Chapter 500: Chapter 413, Ghost’s Notebook

Qi Hancai finished speaking.

She cautiously glanced at the co-pilot’s seat.

There was a member within the base who seemed to have never existed, Xiao Xiao.

One of the earliest to follow Wu Heng, but this member had never been seen.

And upon hearing the radio mention “Ghosts” that could become invisible and attack people, some conjectures formed in her mind.

Wu Heng’s abilities all seemed quite spectral.

...

It wouldn’t actually be strange to have a ghost by his side.

Wu Heng frowned slightly upon hearing the other party’s words.

It seemed that others had encountered ghosts, too.

Ghosts, being incorporeal and immune to physical attacks, were indeed invincible at this time.

“The ghost you mentioned can’t sustain itself for long in the outside world, just don’t approach it,” Wu Heng explained.

Qi Hancai nodded and was certain in her mind.

He indeed understood this matter.

Then the likelihood of ‘Xiao Xiao’ being a ghost was even higher.

The two continued to talk for a bit.

The convoy began to slow down.

There was still some distance to the North Station, and scattered zombies started to appear in front.

Rushing from afar, they were killed by the skeletons that surrounded the convoy.

“Let’s stop here and have someone load ammo for the Flying Dragons,” Wu Heng said.

“Okay!”

Qi Hancai took the walkie-talkie to relay the orders and got out to help load Iron Bombs into the Flying Dragons.

…

Wu Heng waited in the vehicle for a while.

Xiao Xiao and Glenda flew back from a distance.

“There are plenty of zombies in the station, and one Big Head Zombie,” Xiao Xiao pointed toward the distant North Station hall as she spoke.

Glenda added from the side, “There are also some evolved zombies around it; it looks like they’ve made it their base.”

Stations were generally crowded places.

It was normal to have many people.

There was only one Mutated Zombie, which was less than expected.

“Level two or three?” Wu Heng asked.

“Level two,” Xiao Xiao replied.

Wu Heng nodded, “Xiao Xiao, you keep an eye on that Big Head Zombie. Glenda, guard the surroundings.”

“Okay,” Xiao Xiao agreed, then added, “Uncle, when it’s over, I want to go see my mom.”

“Alright, I’ll have the Skeletons speed up, so we can head over there sooner.”

“Hehe, Uncle is the best.”

Xiao Xiao happily circled half-round in the air and then flew towards the hall.

Glenda also flew up into the sky to keep watch.

…

Both Ghosts flew out.

Wu Heng took out the walkie-talkie and asked, “How are the preparations?”

Qi Hancai’s voice came through, “Ready, we can fight at any time.”

Wu Heng patted the Skeleton Hound’s head next to him, “Go and lure the zombies over.”

Whoosh~!

As soon as he finished speaking, the Skeleton Hound dashed out toward the crowd of zombies ahead.

It had only approached a short distance when it drew the attention of the zombies.

Roaring sounds rose, and the horde converged into a pitch-black mass, starting to chase after the Skeleton Hound.

The Skeleton Hound ran back, occasionally looking back and speeding up its pace.

Wu Heng, watching the gathering zombies, could discern a few evolved zombies mingled within the mass.

Feeling that the distance was about right, he said to Big Head Skeleton next to him, “Send out the Skeleton Flying Dragons.”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~!

A series of ripping sounds filled the air.

Skeleton Flying Dragons swooped overhead, flying toward the far-off horde.

Upon reaching above the zombies, the ammo chambers opened in succession.

Dense Iron Bombs fell like torrential rain, smashing into the midst of the horde.

The ground shook, dust filled the sky.

The once crowded streets were now cleared in an instant.

Only the slightly lagging small-drums zombies continued to gather on the road, rushing toward them.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~!

Waves of arrows rained down into the horde.

Rows of zombies fell, their bodies pierced with arrows.

Their numbers, now just in the hundreds, staggered forward with broken bodies.

“Advance forward,” Wu Heng ordered again.

The Skeleton Army, standing by, started moving in unison.

Spear Skeletons thrust forward, forming a tight phalanx, advancing in an orderly manner.

The oncoming zombies were all killed head-on.

They pushed forward to the location of North Station’s hall.

At this moment, Xiao Xiao also flew out, “Uncle, that Big Head zombie is inside, and the zombies have blocked the entrance.”

Through the shattered glass door of the hall, one could see the scene inside.

A horde of zombies had blocked the doorway.

They roared at the skeletons outside but no one charged out to attack.

Behind the zombies blocking the door stood a Big Head zombie.

Wu Heng glanced over and then withdrew his gaze, “Charge in!”

Clatter~!

A squad of Spear Skeletons charged with their spears, instantly piercing through the front row of zombies, as blood and flesh splattered.

The zombies fought back, tearing wildly.

“Kerim, you go in and kill that Big Head zombie.”

Kerim quickly approached the combat zone, his empty eye sockets scanning the Big Head zombie inside.

He planted a hand on the ground, and mist swirled around.

The next second, he appeared behind the Big Head zombie, his Longsword sweeping horizontally.

The massive head fell to the ground, pus and blood splattered everywhere, flowing all around.

The zombies blocking the door instantly became chaotic.

The skeletons surged in, slaying all the zombies inside.

…

The battle ended.

The skeletons began to clean up the battlefield, collecting the arrows scattered all over the ground.

Wu Heng took out the walkie-talkie, called for ‘Qi Hancai’ to come over, and together they headed towards the back of the station.

At the platform, at the end of the rail track on one side, there was a warehouse labeled ‘Service Workshop’.

After opening the heavy iron door, the familiar green train inside became visible.

It wasn’t the kind of fast train like a high-speed rail, but an old-fashioned square-front green train.

Qi Hancai exclaimed, “It’s really here, that’s great, we didn’t make a wasted trip.”

Wu Heng looked at it and asked, “What kind of fuel does this train use?”

“I’ve asked, it burns fuel oil, and it can drive normally,” Qi Hancai walked in, patting the body of the train forcefully.

Wu Heng also followed to take a look inside.

The interior was well preserved; after all, the iron door had always been closed, and no zombies had broken in.

It could completely meet their own people’s needs.

“Take control of this area, and arrange for people to modify the train,” he said.

“Okay, I’ll arrange it right away.”

Qi Hancai returned to the truck, contacting the base with the radio.

Wu Heng then began to collect Corpse Cores, converting the bodies outside.

He collected a total of 1 level-2 Corpse Core and 4 level-1 Corpse Cores.

The harvest was quite good.

Once he finished converting all the bodies,

he had Qi Hancai drive him to the old factory area, where he let Xiao Xiao and her mother reunite.

He himself stayed in the original dormitory, teaching ‘Glenda’ to continue to identify the local script and several pronunciations.

By dusk, Xiao Xiao flew back again.

She slipped back into his body, returning to Gold and Silver Island together.

…

At the dinner table.

The three of them were eating dinner.

Andre Willow said softly, “Master, the Old Barrel sent over two hundred Gold Coins for you, claiming it was the reward for the investigation, I didn’t dare to accept it, so I had them leave it at the association’s front desk.”

Reward?

Old Barrel had credited the whole case’s solution to him.

“Hmm, they indeed mentioned a reward, Wei’er, you did the right thing,” he said.

Andre Willow continued, “Also, Master, the Steward came looking for you today, it would be best for you to visit tomorrow.”

“Alright! We’ll go together tomorrow.”

Andre Willow smiled and nodded.

Mini, while chewing on her food, said, “Wei’er sister was shouting so loudly yesterday, it disturbed my sleep.”

Andre Willow’s eyebrows knitted together, “I was in the bedroom, it was you shouting alright!”

The two women stopped talking, suddenly frozen.

They both turned to look over.

Wu Heng, feeling the gaze on him, swallowed the food in his mouth and said, “When there’s a chance, I’ll introduce her to you.”

“Really, master? You’ve been sneaky,” Mini exclaimed.

Andre Willow also stared wide-eyed, asking softly, “Do we have a lady of the house now?”

“Not exactly, she has a husband.”

The two women’s eyes widened.

“Ah? No wonder in Lundham City, you preferred Sister Mansha.”

…

The next day, early morning.

After breakfast, he and Andre Willow headed to the association together.

He told Andre Willow to return to the study first while he went straight to the Steward’s study.

He knocked lightly on the door and entered.

“Steward, you were looking for me?”

Imilo took out an old, edge-worn notebook from the Space Ring, “Last time you said you wanted to learn about cultivating Ghosts, I’ve found you a handbook. Take it back and see if it’s helpful.”
