The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse - Chapter 912

Chapter 912: Chapter 730, is there a pirate movie? Chapter 912: Chapter 730, is there a pirate movie? Creak~
The door opened, and Philippa walked in from outside.

Dressed in pajamas, her hair damp from a bath.

She climbed onto the bed, rested on his arm, and said, “The movie was really good.”

“In a few days, a movie theater will be built on the island. Do you think it can make money?” Wu Heng asked.

“It definitely can make money. It’s much better than a stage play. Those things put me to sleep,” Philippa said.

“Then we’ll give it a try and see if it works,” Wu Heng nodded.

Philippa thought for a moment, “Are there any pirate movies? Showing them around the Emerald Sea would definitely be a hit.”

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow.

There really were pirate movies.

And they seemed well-crafted and storied.

“Wouldn’t that stir up the islanders’ professional memories?”

“What do you mean?” Philippa was stunned.

“Like, wouldn’t it inspire their past memories and make them go out to sea to become pirates again?” Wu Heng said.

Many of the natives of Gold and Silver Island were indeed pirates.

“With those few ships we have, who would dare to become pirates? Just get ready, I still have the final say,” Philippa sensed his implication, and chuckled, “Almost time to ride the unicorn.”

“Don’t be too late. I’m getting sleepy.”

“Look who’s talking. Just hurry up, and it’ll be over.”

…

The next day, in Zombie World.

In the conference room.

Wu Heng was waiting in the room when Li Yahong came in, placed her owl to one side, and began reporting, “The headquarters sent someone over once, initially delivering five third-level corpse cores. The armored vehicles and the remaining corpse cores will be delivered to us gradually.”

“The credibility of the headquarters is still sound.”

“Is it possible they just don’t want to ruin their relationship with you, but aren’t as friendly with the outside?” Li Yahong looked at him and said.

“Why do you say that?” Wu Heng was curious.

“They’re not so easygoing with regular shelters, now power sets the rules,” Li Yahong glanced up.

“You’re right.”

It’s hard to say who was stronger between Wu Heng’s base and the headquarters.

But if it came down to a fight, Wu Heng was confident in wiping them out.

Both had significant strength, maintaining a cordial relationship, especially needing to buy food and other items from here.

It was the headquarters’ best choice.

As long as they didn’t want to pick a fight, they would have to deliver what was promised.

Wu Heng nodded and asked, “Have you arranged for the learning skeletons to go?”

“They’ll go over the next time they come.”

“As long as it’s arranged.”

Li Yahong continued, “Qi Hancai also sent news from South Korea, saying the Korea Rescue Team has set the final price for the food, needing 50 tons. They are willing to teach some control techniques for the skeleton satellite and help us launch it.”

Fifty tons, that is 1000 bags of food.

“Tell Qi Hancai that we agree, but don’t rush with the food. Let them make sure the skeleton training is clear, then give them the food.”

“Okay,” Li Yahong nodded.

After finishing the instructions, Wu Heng added, “Let’s go downstairs and have a look. I’m making some adjustments to the skeleton troops.”

The two of them stood up and walked outside together.

…

In the following time, Wu Heng used a large door of a warehouse.

To adjust the military forces between the two worlds.

The skeletons from Gold and Silver Island were all replaced with level 10 and above skeleton warriors, and important places were guarded by level 15 skeletons.

The low-level skeletons dispatched to Zombie World continued to level up with the skeleton army.

Once their levels were raised, they would be assigned tasks in the Otherworld.

Now, the entire Gold and Silver Island had also been enhanced.

If high-level professionals came to the island, they too would need to assess their own strength.

Once everything was adjusted, Wu Heng returned to his residence.

…

Another day passed.

The city started the renovation of the movie theater.

Some equipment, including seats, was all brought over from modern world malls.

As for soundproofing on the walls or surround sound.

Those didn’t matter as much, since it was the people of the Otherworld’s first encounter with movies; they didn’t have high expectations.

Wu Heng stood at the entrance, watching the renovation team busy inside.

“Master, Mr. Saban and Madam Siska have arrived,” Robey said softly.

“Lord Island Master.”

“Good morning, my lord.”

A man and a woman, bowing respectfully.

Saban was the island’s Bard, and the stage performance was about the first episode of the Great Detective’s story.

Siska was the island’s Maid, and the stage performance was about the story of Blushing Maid Benny.

Wu Heng nodded, “Robey, keep an eye on things here, you two come with me.”

“Yes, master,” Robey nodded.

Wu Heng led the two others into a nearby building.

They sat down in a separate room.

“Take a seat, don’t be shy.”

The two bowed again and sat down opposite him formally.

Wu Heng got straight to the point, “I plan to shoot a movie on the island. Both of your drama stories are in the plan. If you’re interested, you can give it a try.”

“Lord, what is a movie?”

“You must have seen the advertising screens at the exhibition, right? After it is made into a movie, it will be played on those screens. You just have to perform well once, and then you can continue to make money,” Wu Heng briefly explained.

Their eyes lit up.

In other words, they wouldn’t be paid per performance, saving them energy and time.

“I’m willing.”

“We are willing too.”

The two expressed their willingness one after the other.

Wu Heng nodded, “You can try it first. The standards for movies are not low. Later, take your people to the city hall. I’ll have Andre Willow show you the requirements for the movie.”

“Yes, Lord, thank you for your trust and cultivation,” Saban immediately thanked him.

The woman, not quite adept at such talk, also stood up and deeply bowed.

“Go and prepare, Siska, wait a moment,” Wu Heng said.

Saban bowed and left, while Siska stayed.

Siska, representing the tavern maids, had formed a drama troupe with a group of maids.

The maids of Gold and Silver Island, frankly speaking, weren’t much different from prostitutes.

Perhaps there were some who were unwilling to sell their bodies, but they were in the minority.

After the performance of “Blushing Maid Benny,” Wu Heng provided them with Professional Scrolls.

It was a recognition and encouragement for their willingness to take a new step.

“Lord, do you have any orders?” the woman was somewhat tense.

“How have things been recently?” Wu Heng asked with a smile, as if chatting with a friend.

The woman replied, “Everything has been good; the sisters have all found jobs that look decent.”

“There’s something about the movie, take extra care of the other maids on the island, that kind of job is all about youth, and there’s no security in the future,” Wu Heng said straightforwardly.

The woman’s eyes widened a bit, as if she had misheard.

The young professional of Gold and Silver Island, the Great Detective who had vanquished the Prince.

It was surprising to hear such words from him, yet considering who Island Lord Wu Heng was, it made sense.

“I will gather the island’s maids, and mention this to them, if they are willing,” the woman immediately said.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, “Old rules, as long as they strive to change, the Island Lord’s Mansion will provide them with Profession Change Scrolls and also help find more performing opportunities, encouraging everyone to give it their all while they are young.”

“Yes, Lord,” the woman said, her voice slightly choked.

“Alright, go on; I don’t have anything else.”

“Lord, thank you for becoming the Island Lord of Gold and Silver Island.”

“And thank you all for supporting me.”

The woman bowed again and left the room.

Wu Heng also stood up and continued to direct at the movie theater for a while, returning to the Island Lord’s Mansion near dusk with Robey.

Back at the Island Lord’s Mansion.

Mini said, “Master, Assistant Shi Yali just called, saying the Elf Race’s fleet has arrived and they’d like you to visit.”

Shi Yali had indeed mentioned this before.

She said the Elf Race would send over a batch of Flower Nectar Wine.

In a few days, Wu Heng planned to head to Lundham City.

He would be gone for over half a month; it was a good opportunity to spend more time with Xi Ligui.

“Alright, give them a call back and tell them I’ll come over tonight,” Wu Heng said.

“Okay, master.”

“Oh, and I have a game console here; I’ll have it installed in the audiovisual room for you to play with when you have time,” Wu Heng said.

At the mention of a new gadget, Mini and Robey immediately showed delight.

“Master, we might not know how to use it when you’re not here,” Mini said with a smile.

“Come, I’ll teach you.”

Wu Heng took Mini upstairs, installed the game console, and handed her a controller.

They started playing.

It was actually quite simple to operate, and Mini, having learned some Chinese to watch Pirates, could understand the options and content on the screen.

She quickly became proficient.

After the game console was assembled.

Wu Heng quickly got ready, and after Mini had informed Shi Yali in advance, he took the Skeleton out and went to the residence of the Elf sisters.

The maids were at home playing games.
