The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse - Chapter 753

Chapter 753: Chapter 608: The Wicked Sue First Chapter 753: Chapter 608: The Wicked Sue First Wu Heng organized the information about Qi Hancai in his mind.

The survivor base at this port knew that the Skeleton Army would pass through here, so they had planted bombs in advance, waiting for the convoy to arrive to detonate them.

The Skull Team, before attacking a certain location, would notify the survivors in the vicinity via radio, allowing them to know about it and prepare for evacuation.

Knowing the route, these people planted the bombs.

Bombing the convoy wasn’t hard to guess, they believed that the Superpowered Man controlling the skeletons was in the convoy, and if the Superpowered Man died, the Skull Team would disappear as well.

“Do you know what their objective is?”

“I don’t know, they never communicated with Bai Qing and his team, they just evacuated immediately after seeing the explosion did not succeed,” Qi Hancai said and continued, “Shall we ask Bai Qing again?”

“No need to ask now, do you know what kind of ship it is?”

“A cargo ship, a large cargo ship,” Qi Hancai said earnestly.

Attacking the port was mainly because Wu Heng was looking for a ship.

Therefore, the type of ship, Qi Hancai specifically asked, and it was confirmed to be a cargo ship.

But specific details like type and displacement, he couldn’t elaborate.

Wu Heng nodded and went straight on to say, “Go find out where the train is, I’ll head there once things here are wrapped up.”

“Okay.” Qi Hancai nodded and turned to walk towards the back.

Wu Heng glanced at the battlefield up ahead.

The skeletons had begun cleaning up the battlefield, bodies of all types piled up together on the ground.

Wu Heng could see it was almost ready.

He began converting the bodies.

A large number of skeletons stood up from the ground.

…

Not long after, Qi Hancai’s voice came through the walkie-talkie again.

“The vehicle is ready.”

“Bring it over!” Wu Heng pressed the walkie-talkie to reply.

A truck drove up from behind.

Wu Heng then said to the Skeleton in a suit accompanying him, “I need to step out for a bit, wait until these teams have scavenged everything, then all head back to the military factory, just guard it as usual.”

The Skeleton in a suit straightened his collar, then nodded again.

Wu Heng opened Qi Hancai’s car door, sitting in the co-driver’s seat, “You going too?”

“I’ve arranged everything at the factory, there shouldn’t be any problems, I’ll come with you. If there are places where it’s not convenient for you to show up, I can help out,” Qi Hancai said.

“Alright, let’s go, to the station first,” Wu Heng agreed.

Most of the zombies in the city around the military factory had been cleared out.

Qi Hancai being away for a day or two wouldn’t be a problem.

The truck started.

It drove out of the Skull Team, heading in the direction of the station.

…

The train.

The carriage jolted slightly, and on a screen on the table next to them, they could see the pitch-dark surroundings outside the window.

Qi Hancai spread out a quilt on the floor, occasionally stealing glances at the man beside her.

Just as she was about to say she was ready.

A voice came through the walkie-talkie she was carrying, “Sister Qi, are you there?”

Qi Hancai got up from the floor, took the microphone, “I’m here, go ahead.”

“Tune into the main station’s channel, those people are playing the victim first,” Bai Qing’s voice, clearly a bit angered.

“Okay, I’ll switch over and listen,” Qi Hancai responded, tuning the frequency to the main station.

No sooner had she switched, than a woman’s voice came through, aggrieved yet righteous.

“We can confirm, those people are the skeletons from Xinfu City, they took over our base, making us too scared to approach.”

“We hope the main station’s rescue team can help us get our base back and maintain the principle of mutual aid among survivors in these tough times,” said someone from another base.

The main station began to respond.

“We’ve noted your issue, and we will contact Xinfu City to coordinate on this matter.”

“Good, thank you, our base was developing so well, we didn’t expect this to happen.”

The other party’s tone turned increasingly pitiful and aggrieved.

After the main station had replied,
People from other bases started to speak on the same frequency.

“Isn’t Xinfu City rescuing people? Many survivors have been saved, how could they attack you?”

“Indeed, there’s news of rescues, but what exactly is going on isn’t clear.”

“I had heard before of people being rescued by Xinfu City, it must be true, it’s unclear if this matter might turn around, so let’s wait for the outcome.”

Qi Hancai and Wu Heng glanced at each other.

There was a hint of surprise in their eyes.

They really did come to the main station to complain.

“Should I say something?” Qi Hancai asked.

“Might as well say something, they make it seem as if we don’t know how to use the radio, lying with eyes wide open,” Wu Heng said, adding, “Tell them, anyone who helps those people is our enemy.”

Qi Hancai nodded, pausing in thought.

Then she took out the microphone and began, “This is Xinfu City Base. Our rescue team in Seaside City was attacked by hidden bombs. The targets were our survivors and supplies. We will not tolerate such banditry, and anyone assisting them will also be deemed an enemy.”

“Damn! It really backfired.”

“So vicious, laying bombs directly, leaving no chances for the others.”

“Told you, everyone’s been trading with Xinfu City, why would they target you?”

“Makes sense!”

In the chaotic discussion,
the voice that had just complained suddenly fell silent.

The main station didn’t reply either.

After a short wait,
the main station resumed broadcasting some slogans.

Qi Hancai then switched the frequency back.

She did not even send a message back to Bai Qing.

“We’ll talk about it when we get there tomorrow!” Wu Heng said.

“Okay!” Qi Hancai freshly made the bed and said with a smile, “We can rest now.”

Wu Heng took off his coat and hung it up.

Dressed in a wool sweater, he climbed into the bedding.

Qi Hancai followed suit, gently leaning into his arms.

She half-closed her eyes and fell asleep.

…

Dawn broke at the harbor of Seaside City.

A large group of skeletons occupied the port, white bones densely packed as far as the eye could see.

Wu Heng stood on the shore, the sea breeze bringing a chill.

Bai Qing repeated the story, matching closely with what Qi Hancai had said.

Bombs were planted on the road, and they were attacked by skeletons, scaring some people into taking boats out to sea.

“The giant-winged skeletons in our team wanted to fly over and kill those people. I was worried the boats wouldn’t come back, and since they were hovering in the distance, I consulted with the Skeleton Captain and waited for your arrival.”

The giant-winged skeletons referred to the Blood Clan members in the team.

The Skeleton Captain was a level 18 Blood Clan leader, responsible for the team.

A level 18 creature, capable of flying and easily landing on the island to finish those people off.

“I understand. You go check what’s in those containers. I’ll handle things here. Qi Hancai, come with him and inventory the important goods,” Wu Heng instructed.

“Okay!” Qi Hancai left with Bai Qing.

Wu Heng then released all three Ghosts.

“This isn’t Gold and Silver Island?” Glenda looked around curiously.

Xiao Xiao and Bella also surveyed their surroundings curiously.

However, seeing the vast crowd of dense skeletons, they could confirm this place was Zombie World.

Wu Heng pointed towards a few small dots on the ocean horizon and instructed, “Those boats contain our enemies. Glenda, help me go check what’s happening, but don’t make a move yet.”

“What about us?” Xiao Xiao raised her hand to ask.

“Xiao Xiao, you and Bella scout around, check for any special facilities or if there are other boats,” Wu Heng replied.

“Okay!”

The three Ghosts nodded in agreement, and Glenda flew towards the distant boats.

Xiao Xiao and Bella began searching the port.

…

Shortly after,
Glenda returned, diving back into his body.

The view was shared instantly.

Inside the cockpit,
two middle-aged men sat, one was somewhat balding, operating the control panel, while the other, a big-bearded man looking somewhat Western, sat at a table, sipping red wine.

“What now? They still hold the port. I said not to provoke them, but you wouldn’t listen.”

The wine-drinking big beard scoffed, “Shit! There’s no use talking about that now. Those damn skeletal frames don’t look like they can swim. We’ve got plenty of food, no need to be scared of them.”
