The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse-Chapter 513 - 424, Anhui City Station
Chapter 513 -424, Anhui City Station
The “ghosts” referred to in this world are actually “ghosts.”
The headquarters mentioned the matter of ghosts as well.
They’ve been ranked at the highest danger level, and once detected, the area they inhabit is designated as a forbidden zone.
Being completely immune to physical damage is, under the current circumstances, virtually an unsolvable issue.
Qi Hancai continued, “There was a survivor base near a station that encountered a ghost. After being haunted, someone died, and since then there’s been no news from that team.”
Once a ghost takes an interest in a living being, the consequences can be significant.
Ghosts cause trouble or sometimes possess someone directly, controlling their bodies to jump off buildings.
In Black Stone Town, Mining Village, the infant spirit was one form of ghostly troublemaking.
Its prolonged influence drove the entire village mad, and they started to attack anyone who entered.
“Does it have intelligence?” Wu Heng inquired.
“What?” Qi Hancai looked up confusedly.
“That guy, did he say whether you can communicate with ghosts or not?”
“Communicate with ghosts?” Qi Hancai’s eyes widened even more.
What is there to communicate with a ghost about?
Like in the movies?
Burning a couple of incense sticks or inviting a ghost to possess you?
Various thoughts flashed by, and then he said, “He didn’t say, and he was just relaying what he had heard from others. He probably doesn’t know the specifics.”
“Alright, not knowing is no issue.”
Qi Hancai hesitated, then asked, “Should we enter ‘Anhui City Station,’ or stop one station earlier?”
“Anhui City Station, I have a way with ghosts, don’t worry about that, and don’t tell the others either, to save them from unnecessary panic,” said Wu Heng.
“Okay.”
The train pulled out of the station.
The sound once again attracted the zombies around.
Banging noises against the train’s body could be heard.
…
The train continued for over 40 minutes.
It came to ‘Xixiao Station’.
Same setup as the last station.
After a pair of ghosts scoped out the situation, confirming no special dangers,
Wu Heng disembarked, organized a skeleton troop, and began to clean up the zombies at the station ahead.
Wave after wave of zombies charged forth.
They crashed into the skeleton ranks, and the battle ensued.
At this point, the spear skeletons were not like the low-level ones they had been at the beginning.
In terms of levels, they had already surpassed the ordinary zombies.
Amid the fierce clashes, zombies fell to the ground one by one.
Lining the tracks ahead.
Wait until all the zombies had died.
No new zombies came charging forth.
Wu Heng jumped down from the train, holding the Spine Staff, and began to release [Corpse Battlefield].
One after another, skeletons arose from the heaps of corpses.
Bodies staggering, their bones hissed as they rubbed against each other.
This station obviously had a higher number of zombies than the previous one.
Surrounding the area, there were at least close to a thousand skeletons.
“Clean up the battlefield, clear all the debris from the tracks,” Wu Heng ordered.
All the skeletons sprang into action.
They began clearing the rails, tossing all useless items to the sides of the tracks.
The train and the Skeleton Army.
Continued forward, entering inside the station.
Wu Heng, accompanied by Qi Hancai and the skeletons, entered the station’s main hall.
He had the survivors transplant goods from the waiting room shop that could be utilized, and continued to deploy skeletons to defend this location as well.
In the future, this route still needed to remain open.
Controlling the station was deemed necessary.
After moving all the things and sealing all doors and windows leading outside the station,
They boarded the train to proceed onward.
…
The train continued its journey.
As they got closer to the target station, the frequency of zombies rushing in increased.
Everyone felt as if they were sitting inside a long drum, with pounding sounds echoing continuously.
A normal five-hour trip.
Only by dusk did they start to approach ‘Anhui City Station’
Once more a voice from the driver’s cab came through, “‘Anhui City Station’ is in sight. There are quite a lot of zombies. Should we stop a bit earlier?”
As winter approached,
The duration of daylight was greatly reduced.
The images the cameras inside the train could provide were not as clear as they were during the day.
The outlines of the station buildings could be seen, along with countless wandering figures.
Although just blurry silhouettes,
It was evident that there were many more zombies than in the previous two stations.
“Stop the train, let’s prepare in advance,” Wu Heng said directly.
Qi Hancai relayed the command, and the already slowing train gradually came to a halt.
As soon as the doors opened, a few zombies lunged at them.
They were knocked down by the disembarking skeleton horde, pierced by spears, and killed outright.
“There are few skeletons, go take charge in the driver’s cabin. If anything happens, I will let you know directly,” Wu Heng said to Qi Hancai who was standing by his side.
She couldn’t be of help in the fighting and there was nothing else for her to do here.
Qi Hancai was startled, then understanding his intent, she said, “Alright.”
She tightened her down jacket and walked towards the driver’s cabin thru the door.
Once she left,
Wu Heng released Xiao Xiao and Glenda.
Two ghosts curiously surveyed their surroundings, even sticking their heads through the roof and body of the train to take a look outside.
“This train is so cool,” Xiao Xiao said.
Glenda looked at the monitor and nodded in agreement, “To some extent, you do have your own direction of development.”
At the previous two stations,
she had let the ghosts out.
However, at that time, Qi Hancai was there, and both ghosts remained invisible without the opportunity to speak.
Now that no one was around, they began to express their feelings.
Wu Heng directly said, “There’s a station up ahead, there’s information that there’s a ghost in the station. Glenda, go investigate the ghost; if its strength is high, fly back in advance. Xiao Xiao, investigate the zombies, their numbers and mutated zombies, pay attention to all that.”
“Okay.”
“Understood.”
The two ghosts replied and flew straight through the walls and out.
Wu Heng also opened the door and got off the train.
He transformed the several zombie corpses lying on the ground into skeletons.
Then he began organizing the skeletons into formations, preparing to confront the zombies.
Soon after, Xiao Xiao flew back from a distance.
“There’s a big guy zombie,” she said urgently.
“What about the number of zombies?” Wu Heng asked.
“Hmm, there are many, fewer over there, but more inside the waiting room,” Xiao Xiao said.
“Let me see!”
Xiao Xiao dived into the body, sharing the visuals into the mind.
The number of zombies inside the whole building was significant, at least three or four thousand.
And there was only one mutated zombie, a second-level big guy.
He then released Xiao Xiao back out.
She was instructed to stay by his side to keep watch while he waited a bit longer for Glenda, who still had not returned.
He decided not to wait any longer.
Picking up his walkie-talkie, he said, “Sound the horn.”
Whoo~!
The melodious sound of the horn rang out.
Simultaneously, the train’s headlights followed, illuminating the path ahead brightly.
The zombies inside the distant station were instantly attracted by the horn, turning their heads towards it and letting out roars.
They began to sprint over.
Right after that, the sound of shattering glass followed.
More zombies broke through the glass doors at the entrance of the station.
They jumped down from the platform, forming a dense horde that surged towards them.
Like a flood rushing down the tracks.
“Launch spears, fire!”
Swish swish swish~!
Iron Spears shot into the sky.
A large number of zombies were pierced through and nailed to the ground, tripping up more from behind and causing a pile-up.
“Keep firing~!”
Then came the second and third volleys of Iron Spears, falling non-stop from above into the horde of the undead.
Constantly slaughtering the horde.
As the zombies drew near, Wu Heng cast [White Bone Armor] on himself, then continued, “Spear Array, advance.”
Rustle rustle~!
The skeletons crouched halfway.
Dense Longswords pierced out in multiple layers.
Then the horde fearlessly plunged into the Spear Array.
The sound of sharp weapons piercing through frozen flesh and blood, the roaring of zombies, and the noise of tearing at Leather armor filled the entire area.
Harsh and grating to the ears.
Then, a Skeleton Flying Dragon circled overhead.
Occasionally, it would snatch up a zombie, toss them from its wounds and flip over even more of them.
The zombies may have been more numerous than the skeletons,

but they were still unable to break through the skeletons’ defensive line.
Even making the Spear Array retreat half a step was out of the question.
“Uncle, that big guy is charging over,” Xiao Xiao’s voice came from beside him.
Wu Heng looked ahead.
He saw the big guy zombie, like a frenzied bull, roaring as it charged over.
All zombies in front of it were blown away, brutally forging a path for itself.
Wu Heng glanced at his side, “Kerim, go and kill that large zombie, don’t let it get close.”
Kerim, gripping his Longsword and lightly tapping his foot, charged straight out.
As he approached the front row of the skeleton ranks, the big guy zombie was about to crash through.
[Fog Skill] was released.
Kerim’s figure instantly disappeared.
The next second, he reappeared behind the charging big guy.
His Longsword swung horizontally, and with a slash, the sound of a blade cutting through flesh resonated, and the giant head tumbled to the ground.
The zombie’s body staggered a few more steps forward.
Then, with a thud, it fell to the ground.
Kerim’s Longsword once again swung non-stop, cutting down all the regular zombies attacking.
His figure slowly retreated back into the lines of the skeletons.
…
On the train.
The accompanying survivors watched with wide eyes, astonished at what they saw on the monitor.
Under the glare of the train’s headlights.
Everyone could clearly see the skeleton, wielding a sword like a chivalrous swordsman, magically appearing behind the mutated zombie.
And with one slash, it killed the second-level mutated zombie.
“How did it appear like that?”
“Teleportation, my God, it can teleport.”
