The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse - Chapter 754

“Those skeletons can’t swim, and we can’t reach shore either. Are we supposed to drift at sea forever?” the man controlling the ship said, annoyed.

“Damn, look at how little courage you have.” Big Beard took another sip of his drink.

The man controlling the ship continued, “If you ask me, we should explain the situation over the radio to the other party and compensate them for some losses. I heard that Xinfu City has a pretty good reputation.”

Big Beard cursed, “Are you out of your mind? They’ve occupied the port, everything belongs to them. What do you have to compensate with?”

“Then what do you suggest we do?”

Big Beard glanced at him and said, “Just steer the ship properly. They aren’t moving, and I’ve found a spot too, so we won’t be stuck at sea.”

As he spoke, he patted the radio on the table next to him.

The man controlling the ship looked at him.

He sighed softly but said nothing more.

…

Glenda continued to wait in midair.

Seeing that the two men didn’t continue their conversation, she moved downward through the floor into the cabin below.

In the cabin near the deck, there were some muscular men.

There were seven in total, three wearing pistols and the others had axes and knives beside them.

Sitting together, they were discussing the failed ambush and the skeletons occupying the port.

From the content of their conversation.

This event had been prepared in advance, but the explosives weren’t measured properly.

They also miscalculated the timing of the detonation.

After listening for a while, Glenda continued to fly further inside.

In the adjacent room, there were four women crowded in a single room, hardly interacting at all.

Each sat crouched in a corner of the room.

Glenda continued to move downward through the wall, to another cabin with mechanical rooms, where some personnel were responsible for the operation of mechanical equipment.

…

At this point, Glenda’s shared vision vanished.

Wu Heng released her again.

Glenda floated nearby, and her first question was, “Why is your ship made of iron?”

Uh…

Wu Heng was taken aback; back at Gold and Silver Island, ships were made of wood, though some warships had iron reinforcements on certain sections.

But the main structure was still primarily made of wood.

The difference lay in the choice of keel.

“Our vehicles here are all made of iron, armored cars, and you’ve also seen the airplanes. It should be acceptable that the ship is made of iron too!” Wu Heng said.

Glenda swept another glance at the cargo ship on the sea surface, slowly speaking, “… I can accept that.”

“Good to get used to it.”

“If all these were brought to Gold and Silver Island, it would probably cause a bigger sensation,” Glenda said with certainty.

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, “I plan to take this ship over there, convert it into a warship, and patrol the routes.”

“That’s a good idea,” Glenda agreed.

“Just one ship over there?” Wu Heng brought the topic back to the ship.

“Just this one,” Glenda looked at him and continued, “There are only about twenty people inside, and to you, there’s no danger, it just depends on how you plan to deal with them.”

Unless there are firearms of great power.

Otherwise, in this world, there’s basically no threat to Wu Heng.

There are a few people on the ship who wear pistols, but their power is limited, and some caution is enough to handle them.

“Just kill them, keeping them around will only cause trouble sooner or later,” Wu Heng said bluntly.

Glenda said, “Down in the cabin, there’s quite a bit of food and supplies piled up; it seems they had prepared in advance for a potential retreat after failure.”

“It may not necessarily be for us. They might be preparing for the possibility of a horde of corpses or some other unpredictable dangers, just like how bases prepare evacuation vehicles in advance,” Wu Heng shared his thoughts.

Glenda thought for a moment, “You’re right, that’s more probable.”

As the two spoke, Xiao Xiao and Bella also flew back in succession.

Xiao Xiao excitedly said, “Uncle, over there are containers, each filled with loads of stuff. I checked several, and it feels like opening blind boxes.”

“`
Bella also added, “There are a lot of goods, they must have relied on these goods to hold on.”

This place had grown like this.

The stranded goods absolutely played a major role.

Otherwise, these people wouldn’t have lasted such a long time.

Wu Heng nodded to indicate he understood.

He then ordered the Big Head Skeleton nearby, “Bring over the Blood Clan Skeletons, and mobilize two Skeleton Flying Dragons.”

The order was given.

A whooshing sound swiftly approached.

More than ten huge meat-winged Blood Clan Skeletons and two Skeleton Flying Dragons landed in the open space in front.

“Kai Xiu, follow me,” he said and then mounted a Skeleton Flying Dragon.

Kai Xiu also got on another one.

“To the cargo ship.”

The Skeleton Flying Dragons soared into the sky, followed by a large group of Blood Clan Skeletons, flying forward together.

…

Cargo ship, inside the cockpit.

Two bottles of liquor downed.

Big Beard also showed some signs of drunkenness.

He continued to rant, “Why didn’t they just get blown up? It wouldn’t be such a hassle then, a bunch of damn monsters.

I’ve noted this down; when there’s a chance, I’ll make sure they pay us back with interest.

Damn it!”

The man steering the ship listened to the endless chatter and asked, “What do you mean by ‘you’ve found a good spot’?”

“You’ll know when it’s time. Just because the headquarters doesn’t dare to mess with Xinfu City, doesn’t mean other places won’t,” Big Beard sneered.

The food on board was sufficient for them to survive for a while.

As long as those skeletons couldn’t make it across, there was nothing to worry about.

“What you better mean is…”

Thud, thud, thud~!

Amid the talking, a series of dull landing sounds arose.

Both men looked outside and their faces instantly displayed fright.

Two massive Skeleton Flying Dragons appeared, followed by Humanoid Skeletons with huge meat wings on their backs.

Just like vampires in the movies.

In the blink of an eye, they had taken over the large deck outside.

Damn it!

There are flying skeletons.

Who said they couldn’t come over, and here we are, foolishly lingering around, waiting for the skeletons to clear the port.

“Sound the alarm, damn it,” Big Beard cursed and drew his gun, readying himself.

The shrill alarm blared.

At the same time, from the locked cabin door came sounds of it being pulled by tremendous force.

With a bang, the door was directly flung open.

Big Beard aimed his gun at the doorway and cursed, “Playing tricks, let’s see if you can withstand bullets. I’ll blast you.”

But a second after he cursed, Big Beard suddenly felt his body uncontrollably stiffen and begin to freeze.

In a look of disbelief, the muzzle slowly turned and pressed against his own jaw.

The drunkenness cleared instantly, his expression turned to panic, “What have you done? Don’t, don’t, I surrender, the explosion was just…”

Bang~!

The word “misunderstanding” was left unsaid.

A gunshot rang out, a bullet pierced his jaw.

Big Beard’s body abruptly fell backward, blood staining the floor.

The man at the helm, hands over his head, shouted rapidly, “I’m the captain, don’t kill me, without me no one can steer this ship, we have supplies on board, you can’t carry too much even if you can fly.”
