The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse - Chapter 929

Chapter 929: Chapter 743, Yeko Transport Team (One update today, 5000 words). Chapter 929: Chapter 743, Yeko Transport Team (One update today, 5000 words). “Are they coming for us?” Wen Mansha’s voice carried a hint of panic.

After all, their side was the Necromantic Army, and The Holy Court was getting involved, making it hard not to suspect bias towards the humans.

If that were the case, it would be really stifling.

The Yeko Kingdom attacked them without any interference, but the moment they retaliated, a hero of The Holy Court appeared.

Moreover, at a deeper level, if a religious hero was involved in this matter, it also represented the stance of the headquarters.

Before the war, this matter had been reported to the headquarters through the local association.

Arranging for a hero to intervene was aimed at suppressing their side.

Hearing the unease in her voice, Wu Heng said, “It’s alright, it’s not aimed at us. Netalee City had killed a local steward; the matter involves the Crown Prince and the sects. It’s an investigation into this incident.”

“Whew! Master, you scared me,” Wen Mansha playfully complained.

“Even if it’s not directed at us, we need to avoid drawing their attention,” Wu Heng advised.

Wen Mansha understood this reasoning.

After all, it was a Necromantic Army; they had occupied many cities along the way.

“Alright, then we’ll do as you say, Master. We’ll station ourselves at Seterde Fortress first, and after this hero leaves, we’ll discuss what to do next.”

They needed some time to rest, to avoid drawing the attention of the religious hero.

This time could also be used to rearrange the entire battle line and restore the railway to facilitate the transportation of supplies.

“Alright,” Wu Heng agreed.

“Will you stay there, Master?” Wen Mansha continued.

“I still have many things to do, I can’t stay here for long,” Wu Heng replied.

Wen Mansha thought for a moment, then said softly, “I can’t go there, after all, the baby still needs to eat. I’ll let Hartel take over first, and you wait for her for a few days, to prevent any issues with this city.”

“Let her come over then, arrange some extra guards along the way and be careful.”

“I’ll arrange for her to leave today,” Wen Mansha confirmed.

“Then let’s leave it at that for now, we’ll contact each other if anything comes up,” Wu Heng suggested.

“Alright.”

Hanging up the communication, Wu Heng stood up and gave his place to a skeleton.

To let it receive on the radio.

“It looks like, I’ll have to stay here for a few days, waiting for Hartel to come.”

…

Stepping out of the room.

He saw Glenda commanding a row of skeletons carrying a wooden chest downstairs.

Glenda said with a smile, “Found a treasure vault, there’s quite a lot of money and jewels, this Commander was quite wealthy.”

Wu Heng lifted the lid of the chest carried by the skeletons, inside were piles of Gold Coins and Silver Coins, along with some gold and silver jewelry.

“With so much power, it would be strange if he hadn’t managed to get anything,” Wu Heng said as he collected all the chests and continued, “Keep looking, there might be more good stuff around.”

“Xiao Xiao and Bella are looking,” Glenda said with a grin.

“I just contacted Wen Mansha awhile ago, we will stay here for a few days until she arranges for someone to come over, then we can leave this place,” Wu Heng plainly stated.

Glenda nodded, “It’s up to you, we have no objections.”

Wu Heng continued down to the first floor and casually asked, “Do you think there really are Divine Spirits?”

“Of course, there are.”

“How can you be so sure?”

Glenda floated alongside, speaking, “Some professions need the blessing of Divine Spirits, and The Holy Court is also recognized by the association. There doesn’t seem to be any doubt about the existence of Divine Spirits!”

“Then why hasn’t The Holy Court risen above all other forces?” Wu Heng asked again.

Glenda hesitated for a while before responding, “I don’t know about that; if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have reached Level 20 and couldn’t provide you with an answer.”

After a brief pause, he added, “Maybe there are some restrictions on Divine Spirits, otherwise, there wouldn’t be heretics and the existence of beings like us.”

“It’s possible,” Wu Heng nodded.

‘God’ might not be what it was traditionally understood to be.

Wu Heng had thought about this before and came up with two possibilities: one, that the gods are not as powerful as the legends suggest, but just higher-level professions with special abilities referred to as gods.

Second, perhaps the gods are very powerful but unable to directly influence this world; otherwise, divine power would have long dominated all authorities.

Whichever the case may be, it meant that in this world.

Gods needed The Holy Court’s Priests and followers to handle most matters; they couldn’t intervene directly.

Walking down to the lobby, a burst of voices could be heard.

“We need to see the Inspector, either let us in or go find someone.”

“Why can’t you understand, you skeleton!”

Glenda went invisible to take a look and came back, “It’s those few Commanders accompanying us.”

Wu Heng nodded, put on the Human Skin Mask, and proceeded directly.

Approaching the archway leading to the front hall, he saw Commander ‘Geoffrey’ and two Beastmen standing in the hall waiting.

Seeing Wu Heng appear, they immediately saluted, “Inspector, Sir.”

“Is there something in the city?” Wu Heng approached and sat down next to them.

The group exchanged glances before Geoffrey spoke, “We came over to report the situation.”

“Go ahead!”

Geoffrey began, “The city’s last resistance has been annihilated. Some taking advantage of the chaos may have hidden in the homes of residents; further searches will be needed.”

“Are there any captives?”

“We have over 200 captives; what do you think should be done with them?” Geoffrey asked again.

Wu Heng pondered for a moment, “Check their identities; if they are conscripted residents, let their families come to pick them up. If they were originally military, send them to clean up the collapsed city walls. Arrange more skeletons to guard them; if anyone causes trouble, just kill them.”
