The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Bullets weaved a giant net, reaping the lives of the White Wolf Gang members.

Under the formidable firepower, flesh was as fragile as tofu, with the entire alley littered with shredded limbs.

A gang member, his thigh shot off, used his arms to crawl forward. The loss of blood and excruciating pain caused each of his movements to be accompanied by anguished screams, “Boss, save me, Boss.”

His voice was filled with a desperate desire to live.

But, obviously, it had no effect.

‘Gal’ and a few others were hiding in a yard on the side, listening to the continuous gunshots from the rear.

They didn’t even dare to peek their heads out.

Ignoring their suffering members outside.

“Damn it! Where did they get these tools from? They are ruthless!” Gal swore through gritted teeth.

At the same time, he started regretting involving himself in the Inner City Area strife.

Why did he have to meddle in these murky waters.

Moreover, if he knew it would come to this, he should have exterminated the Pinned Gang first and played that woman to death.

Damn it, everything had deteriorated to this state.

Suddenly, the gunshots from outside stopped.

Within an instant, the whole alley became quiet; the anguished screams became more distinct.

Wen Mansha peeked curiously and saw the red-hot gun barrels, it seemed like they had decided to pause for a bit.

But at this point, there was no need to continue using these weapons.

She spoke coldly, “Kill them all, leave no survivors. Whoever kills ‘Gal’ will be promoted and rewarded 500 silvers.”

All the members of the Pinned Gang were astonished for a second.

But soon they reacted, picked up their weapons, and charged in after shouting.

Initially, they dared not lay a hand on the White Wolf Gang.

Now, there were only a few people left on the other side and they all were part of the gangs.

So, there was hardly any fear left.

As they were paid a high price for an enemy’s head, everyone rushed in, afraid that if they were late, they won’t get to share the reward.

They killed all the screaming White Wolf Gang members on their way and then stormed into the courtyard on the side.

On seeing ‘Gal’, they lunged at him with their knives.

Although Gal was fierce, he was struggling against the larger number of the Pinned Gang members.

After being pierced through the chest by a dagger, the gaze in his eyes was full of despair as he looked outside.

“Wen Mansha, don’t kill me. I admit defeat. The White Wolf Gang still has some wealth. If you kill me, it won’t be under your name. Don’t kill me.” Gal shouted.

The people who planned to finish him off paused their actions momentarily.

Dragging Gal out of the courtyard, they looked up and saw Wen Mansha covering her mouth and nose at the distance.

It seemed like she was waiting for her result.

Wen Mansha looked up and said, “Someone in the Inner City Area wants you dead. I can’t save you. Kill him.”

She gestured slightly.

Her subordinates understood. The longsword swayed and slit Gal’s throat. Blood spurted out.

“Big sister, they are all dead. No one is left.” Someone came over and said.

Wen Mansha nodded, “Get a few brothers to search this place. Take anything that is useful or valuable, and the rest clear the battlefield.”

“Okay, big sister.”

As the Outer City Area didn’t interfere with gang fights.

It’s required that they clear up the battlefield after the end of the fight, so corpses wouldn’t be scattered on the streets and disturb the shopkeepers or residents the next day.

Everyone began to clean up the final battlefield.

Wen Mansha asked them to find and lay the corpses of Gal and some bosses on a flatbed cart.

Along with the peculiar tools, they left towards their headquarters.

After this night passed.

The Pinned Gang made a name for themselves in the Outer City Area.

…

Inner City Area.

“The person from the ‘Iron Guard Knights’ has arrived and is approaching this place.” Glenda, hovering in mid-air, said softly.

Wu Heng was standing in the courtyard of Gianluca’s mansion.

He glanced at the location of the gate.

When his residence was attacked, this knight group saw Tang and turned away.

They came quite promptly this time.

“How many people aren’t there?” Wu Heng asked.

Glenda raised herself higher and took a look from afar. “Approximately twenty to thirty people gathered there, but I see that people from another direction are also approaching.”

“Kill them all and bring their corpses back,” Wu Heng said.

1

The skeletal figure standing by was prepared to move again. They went out the door and charged toward the approaching knight group.

Under the frightful gaze of the knights, they scattered the formation. Countless cleavers fell straight down, hacking and killing directly.

Wu Heng entered the building.

Gianluca was a local magnate and an important member of the Secret Cultivation Hall.

You could say that the quality of life here was quite good.

The carpets, sofas, potted plants, and paintings in the hall weren’t something an ordinary person could afford.

Especially a few pieces of furniture, the exquisite carvings and craftsmanship were not something an ordinary craftsman could achieve.

It did fit a magnate’s status.

If the lifestyle was too ordinary, it would feel as if he ended up in the wrong place.

Upon reaching the staircase, Wu Heng found Gianluca’s corpse.

The body was halved at the waist, his eyes wide with terror at the moment of his death.

Wu Heng found a door and opened a boundary door directly.

“Move all the corpses and everything here. Move fast,” Wu Heng ordered.

The remaining skeletons began to move.

Picking things up in the room, they directly entered the boundary door.

Moving things in piece by piece, they formed a line like ants moving house.

Soon, the group of skeletons that went out to intercept the guard team returned, dragging dozens of corpses wearing silver armor.

Wu Heng continued to direct them to move things.

If it is too big, leave it.

Move everything else possible, don’t leave anything behind.

Waiting for all things to be in the order.

Wu Heng drew out the green bronze key and put on his cloak.

Upon Glenda’s reminder, he evaded the approaching members of the Knights group.

He disappeared into the night.

…

He returned to his residence.

The house was utterly empty, Mini and Andre Willow had been arranged to stay with Laisia’s corporation.

1

As they had been long-time partners, he somewhat trusted her.

Moreover, a common person would not dare offend such a huge conglomerate.

The hall was dimly lit.

Wu Heng lifted the curtain and looked out the window.

He confirmed there was nothing suspicious and directly went up to the third floor.

Clang, clang, clang~!

A Barn Owl stood dumbfounded on the windowsill, pecking at the window with its beak.

Wu Heng opened the window, brought the owl inside and took a note from its leg, he then unrolled the note to read the message.

The content was simple.

The White Wolf Gang has been exterminated, no threats are present.

Wu Heng wrote on it, everything is fine on my side too.

Reattached the note on the owl’s leg and released it.

When ‘Glenda’ came back again, there was no threat outside.

He reopened the boundary door and went to the Zombie World.

It was still night here, but there were a few solar lamps in the courtyard still brightly lit.

Wu Heng arrived at the open area.

He checked this time’s harvest.

On one side were various pieces of furniture, paintings, wine, and dinner plates, and on the other side were bodies piled up.

There were bodies of Gianluca and others, and also those of the Knight Group.

Wu Heng did not want to stir up such a situation either.

But the conflict between both parties had reached an irreparable point.

Once the other party started, if he did not resist in any way, it would only make them more rampant.

1

If they dared to kidnap his maid today, they would certainly be more direct tomorrow.

The consequences were unimaginable.

It might as well be like this time, quickly annihilating the other party.

Regardless of the impact this might have, or if Lundham city actually dug up that it was him, it was unavoidable.

We’ll cross the bridge when we get there.

He sat on a wooden stool, looking at the pile of corpses in front of him and hesitated for a while.

He said to the skeleton beside him: “Drag him out.”

Gianluca’s corpse was dragged out directly.

Only the upper half of the body was left, bloody.

He cast ‘Communicate with the Dead,’ the next second, the half-dead corpse opened its eyes.

Unable to sit up, it could only turn its neck.

It glanced over, void of any emotions, its eyes were grey and lifeless.

“Who else was involved in the plan against me?” Wu Heng asked.

The corpse replied, “Anel and Kapro.”

Wu Heng asked again, “Only the three of you?”

The corpse replied, “Only the three of us were discussing this plan, no one else was involved.”

“Was the main reason to assassinate me to get the ‘Sacrificial Wand’ and the ‘Blood Cup’ back?”

“Yes.”

Damn it.

“Why did you value these two things?” Wu Heng continued to ask.

The corpse’s body began to tremble violently.

Just as Wu Heng thought something was going to happen, the corpse stopped trembling and replied, “These two are very important items, with special functionalities. If lost, we will be punished.”

Although no specifics were mentioned, Wu Heng could clearly understand the punishment mentioned.

It was the Secret Cultivation Hall’s punishment.

These two items were important items of the ‘Secret Cultivation Hall.’ If they could not retrieve them, they would be in big trouble.

The last question.

Wu Heng considered for a while and continued, “Tell me every member of the Secret Cultivation Hall and their identities that you know of.”

The corpse remained still, without any response.

Wu Heng frowned, repeated, “Tell me the members and their identities of the Secret Cultivation Hall in this city.”

The corpse still remained silent.

The next second, the head began to shake violently. With a ‘poof,’ the necromancy on top of the head dispersed, the corpse fell to the ground with a ‘thud.’

Wu Heng’s eyes widened.

He was amazed at what happened.

He did not expect this to happen.

It seems that mentioning the members of the Secret Cultivation Hall triggered some sort of confidentiality mechanism.

Once they were detected or inquired in this manner.

They would disperse.

It was like they had a self-destruction program built in.

It seems that to join the Secret Cultivation Hall, oaths must be involved.

Fortunately, he did not impulsively join them.

The corpse could not be summoned again.

Wu Heng continued, “Strip him clean.”

Basen bent over and stripped the corpse in front of him clean.

Besides the blood-soaked suit.

There were still quite a few good things on him.
