The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 76:, Highest Physique _1

Yang Dabin and others watched with alarm at the scene unfolding before them.

A skeleton is starting to run?

No zombies came, but a bunch of running skeletons did.

However, Li Yahong and others were brimming with joy at the sight of the approaching skeletons.

“Brother Yang, stop staring and run!” someone shouted suddenly.

As he turned around, he noticed his underlings had already run a considerable distance away.

Yang Dabin quickly reacted, preparing to take off running.

But just as he swung his leg forward, he tripped over his trouser leg, hastily stabilized himself, held up his trousers, and continued to flee.

As he ran, he shouted, “Cao, wait for me! Those people will act as bait; we still have time.”

But when he casted a glance back, he saw the skeletal monsters bypass Li Yahong and the others directly.

Just like they had targeted their prey, they zoomed straight towards them.

“Damn it! What the hell is that!”

Yang Dabin cursed and hastened his escape.

However, how could a human’s speed compare to that of a skeleton? In no time, the distance between them was less than five meters.

Yang Dabin gritted his teeth, cursed his fleeing underlings, and without looking back, pulled the trigger.

Bang, Bang, Bang!

The sound of gunfire rang out.

Bullets whizzed through the hollow skeletons and hit the ground.

This was, after all, their first time using guns.

Furthermore, while guns had a strong deterrent effect on survivors, said intimidation was nonexistent if they missed their shots on zombies and skeletons.

Whump!

The first skeleton dog knocked him to the ground, and the rest piled on, ferociously biting.

After a couple of bites, they continued to chase the remaining few who were fleeing.

Soon after, agonized wails echoed from afar.

From behind, Wu Heng arrived with the team of skeletons.

Seeing the few people who were tied up, he ordered, “Untie them.”

A few skeletons with basic souls stepped forward and cut their ropes.

The freedom was returned to them.

“Thankyou!” Li Yahong heaved a sigh of relief, adjusting her clothes.

The rest of the people also expressed their gratitude and stood cautiously to one side.

“What’s going on?” Wu Heng glanced into the distance.

“We were collecting gas here, and they suddenly charged out with guns. We couldn’t do anything,” Li Yahong said, looking somewhat distressed.

If it wasn’t for Wu Heng’s timely arrival, it would be hard to say what would have happened to them.

But it definitely wouldn’t have been good.

“Did you know that man?” Wu Heng continued to ask.

“He came to repair his car when I was still running the shop. He’s a local ruffian,” said Li Yahong.

“Hmm!” Wu Heng nodded, without pursuing further.

Some time had passed since the world’s end arrived.

There were those who chose to unite and face hardship together, and there were also those who chose to unleash their innermost darkness.

It wasn’t really strange.

Soon, several skeleton dogs returned, dragging bloodied corpses along the ground.

The man was obviously dead, with only one hand remaining that still clutched the gun, drenched in blood.

Wu Heng looked at the people beside him and said, “I will guard you, go get the gas. We’ll leave afterwards.”

Li Yahong nodded and led the others, carrying their cans, towards the parked cars ahead.

They began to withdraw the gasoline from the fuel tanks.

Wu Heng commanded the skeletons to drag the man’s body aside, then cast “Communicate with the dead”.

The corpse jerked upward, its eyes staring in Wu Heng’s direction.

“Where did the gun and bulletproof vest come from?”

“I killed two zombies and took it from them.”

“Are there only two sets?”

“Yes!”

“Aside from those who came out with you, are there any others?”

“Nobody else.”

Having nothing more to ask, he dismissed the Necromancy spell.

The corpse immediately slumped back onto the ground.

Wu Heng picked up the gun and commanded, “Remove the vest.”

Jianyi and Jian’er stepped forward and removed the victim’s bulletproof vest.

Last time, when he ransacked the Public Security Bureau, he didn’t see this type of vest.

Either he didn’t spot it, or it simply wasn’t there.

Shortly after, the remaining skeleton dogs returned, dragging the leftover bodies along.

Wu Heng continued to remove the second bulletproof vest and gun.

Waiting in place for a while.

Li Yahong and the others returned carrying oil drums, which were not many, and it did not seem like it would take a long time.

The oil drums were placed on a cart, and they walked in the direction they had come from.

Wu Heng said, “This stab-resistant suit is for you.”

” Thank you!” Li Yahong expressed her gratitude.

“Tomorrow, you come with me, and we’ll go to the gas station to get oil.”

LiYahongnodded, “Okay!”

At the intersection, they went their separate ways.

Back to the residential area.

Wu Heng took out two level 1 Corpse Cores and a Detoxifying Potion.

He took out one, disinfected it with alcohol, and swallowed it directly.

[Strength +1, Agility +1.]

Huh?

There was no heart-piercing pain like the last time.

The patterns on his arm were not as severe as previous times.

They only appeared and then slowly faded away.

He felt like the improvement in his own constitution was making the level 1 Corpse Core’s effect on the body lighter.

It could also be interpreted as his own resistance strengthening.

The effect of the virus seemed to have weakened.

Thinking about it, he still opened the potion and tilted his head back to drink it.

Just in case any accidents occurred.

After all, these were all his own speculations.

Sitting and resting for a while, he continued to take out the second level 1 Corpse Core and swallowed it.

[Strength +1.]

“Only an increase of one point? The effect is decreasing?”

The worst level 1 Corpse Core could increase at least two points of attributes, but the second one only increased by one point.

As the attribute reached a certain value, the effect of the Corpse Core began to decrease?

He opened the Detoxifying Potion and tilted his head back to drink it.

Immediately checked his attribute panel.

[Name: Wu Heng]

[Occupation: Necromancer]

[Level: 5 (272/14000)]

[Attributes: Strength 22, Agility 22, Constitution 25, Intelligence 18, Perception 10, Charm, 13.]

[Expertise: Spear Expertise (Beginner), Arcane Training.]

[Skills: Bone Manipulation Skill, Acid Splash, Grease Skill, Dancing Light Skill, Decay Ray, Corpse Preservation, Communicate with the dead.]

It looks like it really does have something to do with the value.

The three attributes of Strength, Agility, and Constitution have all reached above 20.

And the effect of the Corpse Core and the impact of the toxins are both beginning to weaken.

According to the normal attributes, Constitution determines resistance to various harmful toxins.

Now that his Constitution reached 25, his body began to resist the toxins brought by the level 1 Corpse Core.

“This is forcing me to kill Level 2 zombies!”

Wu Heng muttered to himself, and then continued to focus on his attributes.

His own development path seemed to have gone off track.

Such a good Mage, yet intelligence is only at fourth place now.

Instead, Constitution was the highest.

In the existing spell systems, there doesn’t seem to be a meat mage.

“No, my reliance is still Necromancy, I still have to work harder on magic.”

Wu Heng whispered to himself.

The Red-faced Mermaid Bar.

Bella was carrying a tray of drinks, serving beer to the customers at their tables.

As she was about to turn away, she heard a conversation.

“Did you hear? The warehouse district in the west city was encircled and suppressed by a professional squad and a security team. There were huge flames, making quite a scene. I wonder who they were trying to catch?” A muscular man with a beard spoke after drinking a mouthful of beer.

“That place is all warehouses of several factories; they were probably catching thieves!”

“No way, catching thieves wouldn’t require that many people.” The same table’s companion rebutted.

At this moment, a man wearing leather armor at the next table turned around and said, “I know some of the situation.”

“Then you tell us.”

The man scanned the curious crowd with a smirk and said, “A few children from the crowded area disappeared, and the security team couldn’t find anything. The mother of the children went to a member of a professional squad. In the night, they surrounded and suppressed the warehouse, and the next day, the security team sent the children back.”

“Really? Would they care about this matter?”

“Why would I cheat you, now everyone in the crowded area knows about this matter.”

Bella, holding the tray, looked back at the men who were talking, her eyes filled with surprise.
