The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Below lay a wooden box, already rotted from dampness.

Upon opening it, inside were somewhat oxidized five Gold Coins and a substantial number of Silver Coins.

It seemed that Glenda’s previous life was more affluent than most people’s.

“Alright, you return now, and wait until we get to the city, then we’ll see what changes there might be,” Wu Heng said.

“Alright, Captain!”

The woman smiled slightly and slipped directly into his body, lifting a corner of her skirt.

Xiao Xiao, standing to the side, had wide eyes, asking, “What happened, what happened? How did she get inside?”

Wu Heng explained, “She wants to leave with us, to take a look outside. I thought she looked rather pitiful being alone, so I agreed.”

Xiao Xiao immediately asked, “What about me?”

“Xiao Xiao is always Xiao Xiao.”

“What if she bullies me after this?” Xiao Xiao asked, looking somewhat worried.

“Whoever dares to bully my child, I will hit them. If she bullies you, tell me, I’ll spank her,” Wu Heng guaranteed, patting his chest.

“Okay.” Xiao Xiao immediately smiled upon hearing she has a backer.

“But we should also get along well.”

“Understood, Uncle!”

Xiao Xiao then swiftly slipped back into his body.

…

The matter of the ghost was resolved.

Wu Heng then left the stone tower.

The sunlight outside was still dazzlingly bright, and the ground was neatly littered with a large number of corpses.

Each corpse had been searched once over, and all the valuable items were ransacked.

On the other side of the open space were several crates.

Inside, one could see many pieces of cloth.

At the entrance, there were also three horse-drawn carriages.

“Captain, did you have an upset stomach?” Duke asked from atop of the carriage.

“What upset stomach? I just sat for a while down there.” Wu Heng walked over to the spoils of war and asked, “Have they been counted?”

Duke looked at Mata.

Mata said, “As for the goods, the main items are the cloth and potions. As for the currency, there are three Gold Coins and over 1300 Silver Coins.”

For the sake of easy trading, this included the exchanged Silver Coins for Gold Coins.

“We will share the money, and I’ll give the goods to the people who provided the information,” Wu Heng stated directly.

“It’s up to you, Captain, I have no objections,” Duke said.

“I don’t have any either.”

“Alright, let’s split it like that. Be careful with the Gold Coins, don’t let outsiders see them. You understand what it means to not show off your wealth, right?” Wu Heng cautioned as he divided the Silver Coins into three parts.

“Understood.”

After sharing everything.

He had them move the goods and the bodies of the ‘bounty hunters’ onto the carriage.

He continued, “You two wait for me by the road, I’ll join you shortly.”

“Okay, sure!” The two agreed in unison, driving the carriage away.

Wu Heng then opened the boundary door and moved all the corpses into it.

Then he went over to join the duo by the road, heading towards the city.

…

Returning to Lundham City.

Wu Heng instructed Duke and the others to return first to the guild for autopsy with the corpses, while he drove two carriages directly through the back door into his own shop.

He parked the carriage in the yard and tied up the horses to one side.

Horses were very expensive in this world.

They could be rented from the guild, but if they were lost or died, the bounty from the wanted notice wouldn’t be enough to cover the cost of the carriage.

He re-locked the back door.

Then he went straight to the front hall to have a look.

At this time, quite a few people had come into the shop.

There were individuals making purchases, and also those planning to place large orders. Andre Willow was recording accounts and quoting prices, and Mini was introducing goods to some casual buyers.

It seemed that these goods were quite popular here.

In fact, there were only the two of them in the shop, which was a bit of a strain.

The arranged Jianyi, Jian’er, Nuyi, and the other Attendant could at most serve as guards and security.

They were not capable of serving customers.

Some more help should be hired.

But trustworthy people were hard to find, so for now, the two of them could only be busy.

Wu Heng stepped out, whispered a few words to Andre Willow, and then left the shop directly.

Later, Wei’er would notify Wen Mansha to come over and pick up the goods

…

After processing the goods.

Wu Heng took a detour through a couple of streets and headed towards the ‘Wind Drooping Grass Tavern.’

That was the tavern where Wu Heng and Duke had previously helped catch a murderous blood-letter.

By this time, the tavern had already filled with people.

The smell of wine and a stuffy heat greeted him as he walked in.

Wu Heng entered and chose a corner seat to sit down.

At the same time, he brought out the contracted ghost, ‘Glenda’, although she was in invisible mode, you could still feel her floating beside him.

“Has anything changed compared to before?” Wu Heng asked.

“I’m not sure, I rarely come to such places, but it seems quite lively.” A voice sounded from the side.

“Wow, let’s just watch for a bit, we’ll check out other places when we leave,” Wu Heng said.

At that moment, the female Beastman tavern owner walked over.

She smiled and said, “Captain, it’s been a while since you’ve been here.”

“Yeah, business seems pretty good around here.”

“Just so-so, what can I get you? As agreed before, drink whatever you please, on the house,” the tavern owner said generously.

“Uh, a mug of beer.”

“And for these three gentlemen?” the owner asked, looking at the three figures sitting nearby.

“They’re my attendants, they don’t drink.”

“Alright!” The owner looked around, then leaned in a little closer, whispering, “Captain, do you want me to find a girl to keep you company?”

Uh….

“No need, I will leave after a while,” Wu Heng declined graciously.

“Alright, I will prepare it for you right away.” The Beastman owner walked away and returned shortly with a beer and a few small dishes.

“Captain, do you frequent this place?” asked Glenda from the side in a whisper.

Wu Heng picked up the beer and took a sip, then said, “There was a twisted blood-letting murderer here before. Our squad helped them catch him. The owner, to thank us, promised that we could drink for free when we visit.”

“Ah, I see, I misunderstood,” she said.

While they were chatting quietly.

Wu Heng suddenly felt the gaze of someone staring at him.

He looked to the source of the gaze in puzzle, spotting a well-dressed middle-aged man sitting at a table not far away, who glanced over at him from time to time.

The man saw Wu Heng looking over, got up with his drink, brought his attendant, and walked over.

He sat down in front of Wu Heng.

With a smile over his face, he twirled a large gold ring featuring an eye design on his finger.

“Mr. Wu Heng, it’s been a long time.”
