As if I would believe you,” Shanaela twisted and continued, “Let’s just sit here for a bit; I have to go back soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two sat down on the rooftop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng naturally wrapped his arm around her waist, and Shanaela gently leaned on his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What have you been busy with these past few days? You always seem in such a hurry,” Shanaela asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s still about the pirates; there’s a lot to handle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tell me about your past life. I want to know you a bit more,” Shanaela continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Me? I joined an association in a small town in the Yeko Kingdom, where they really despised Necromancers, as if they were their father’s mortal enemies…” Wu Heng said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaning against him, Shanaela laughed and said, “You even make your stories sound funny, likening them to father’s mortal enemies…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They chatted for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaela stood up and stretched, “It’s getting late; I should head back now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about talking a bit more?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not good if the patrolling Tamed Beast sees us, we’ll talk next time,” Shanaela winked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng also stood up, hugging her waist tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing~ We agreed that… Mmm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng captured her lips with his, kissing her deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a slight struggle, Shanaela also clumsily responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, grabbing the hand that had slipped into her shirt, she turned her head aside and said, “Alright, save this energy for leveling up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng didn’t want to be too forceful and upset her, “Yeah, okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’m going back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll walk you out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just go back.

breakfast,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng headed directly to the Zombie World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The survivors in the old factory area started working on their assigned tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole base became bustling with activity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Qi Hancai hurried over, “The route is confirmed; there are several building material stores over here where we should be able to find some tools.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plan for the day was to clear the zombies around the base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, gathering various necessary tools to speed up weapon production.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng glanced at the map and nodded, “Okay, let’s set out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They boarded the modified jeep, with Skull

Skeleton Army, moving towards the target location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they left the old factory area and entered the main road,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large number of zombies began to appear all around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They snarled and gnashed their teeth, their faces fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their roars merged into a continuous sound, and as it spread quickly, more and more hordes of zombies flooded the main road, forming massive waves of undead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng stood amidst the skeleton troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching as the wave of zombies rapidly approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked over the walkie-talkie, “Wang Chenggang, how is it looking behind us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The first Skeleton Flying Dragon’s ammo chamber is loaded.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng instructed the Skeleton nearby, “Have the dragon loaded with ammo take off and bomb from above the zombies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rushing sound echoed, and the wingspan measuring several meters, the Skeleton Flying Dragon swooped over the skeleton troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Climbing to a certain height rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above the horde of zombies, it opened its ammo chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whooosh-whooosh-whooosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whistling sound of the falling ammunition echoed from overhead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following that, it was like a hailstorm raining down, bombarding the gathered horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom boom boom~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth-shaking roars went off, and smoke billowed up over three meters high, the debris flying everywhere, shattering the glass of the surrounding shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dust, carried by the autumn wind, scattered away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wave of zombies at the rear, stepping over the ground littered with limbs, continued to surge forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without any trace of fear or hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, the second one is loaded now,” Wang Chenggang’s voice came through the walkie-talkie once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng continued to give orders to the nearby Big Head Skeleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second Skeleton Flying Dragon took to the sky, reaching above the horde, and dropped the Solid Iron Bombs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom boom~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still came the intense tremors and the rising smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, a notification sounded in Wu Heng’s ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Your level

was unlocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no time to check his attributes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the dust with the wind gradually faded, it revealed a vast swath of zombies with battered bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stepping over the remnants littering the entire road, they continued to charge forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Archers, fire at will!” Wu Heng ordered again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish swish swish~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“`\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skeleton archers drew their bows and shot their arrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arrows fell into the crowd of zombies like rain, pitter-pattering as they landed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The already decaying zombies were turned into porcupines, their bodies staggering and falling to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several rounds of arrow showers had passed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Advance!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clattering~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The neatly arranged skeleton army, with spears pointed forward, formed an impenetrable wall and began to advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oncoming zombies were pierced by the spears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bearing their bodies, they slowly retreated backward and were then punctured into honeycombs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the skeleton ranks returned to standby mode, the entire battlefield quieted down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The narrow road was now covered with flesh and blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Clean up the battlefield, clear the bodies, collect the arrows!” Wu Heng ordered directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The waiting skeletons sprang into action again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They began cleaning up the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rear convoy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The survivors who had newly joined the scavenging team trembled with shaking legs and goosebumps all over their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite being mentally prepared, they were still terrified out of control by the scene before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flesh and blood carpeted the entire road like a rug, with fresh blood streaming into rivulets, and passing vehicles and buildings were riddled with holes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the air above was permeated with a layer of dark red blood light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just which side was the monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both sides were monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, an order came through the radio, “Scavenging team, come over. Collect the items from the shops, take precautions, and don’t get injured.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Chenggang turned his head and shouted at everyone, “Alright, it’s our turn now, load all the useful things onto the truck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The survivors from the auto repair shop, along with the newcomers from the old factory district, began entering the battle zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They scavenged and transported various materials along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, they carefully watched the dense skeleton army as well as the young leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having assigned the tasks, Wu Heng opened his panel to check his attributes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Name: Wu Heng]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Level: Level 13]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Attributes: Strength 34, Agility 28, Constitution 37, Intelligence 36, Perception 23, Charm 28.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Feats: …One-handed sword specialization (basic), swordsmanship specialization (basic) …, arcane training, knowledge of souls, … undead adaptation, spellcasting acceleration, forced concentration.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Abilities: Greyhawk swordsmanship (beginner), enhance will, soul sense, spellcasting acceleration.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Skills: Bone manipulation skill, … bone armored, corpse cage, white bone transplant, breath of death, animate object.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The experience from level 13 to level 14 had reached an exaggerated number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the zombie world, Wu Heng feared he would never be able to reach a higher level in his lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with the zombie world, just grinding five or six waves of zombie hordes was actually enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After closing the panel, the bodies were all gathered together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng took out the ‘spine staff’ and first cast [White Bone Transplant].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broken skeleton warriors walked into the crowd of corpses, pulled out the parts they were missing, and attached them to their own bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the bone transplantation was finished,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng continued to cast [Corpse Battlefield].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A grey-white ring of light spread out, and countless skeletons rose from the piles of corpses, joining the skeleton ranks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tens of thousands of corpses in the street still represented a significant workload.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff and the newly exchanged robe provided an effect that reduced spell consumption.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But still, he needed to take a spirit potion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all the conversions were complete,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng called over Qi Hancai and continued to push forward along the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gaining experience was also a way to increase the number of skeletons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As dusk approached,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skeleton army and the convoy returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vehicle had just stopped when a large number of people from the dormitory rushed out to help move the supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they saw the truckload after truckload of grain and various foods, the survivors from the old factory district were excited and overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other trucks were filled with various tools, which would be used to make weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng walked into the dormitory and said, “We need to hurry up with making weapons and solid iron bullets. Having enough skeletons isn’t enough if they can only punch.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, I’ll have people start making iron spears overnight, but for the solid iron bullets, we need to build a furnace. I plan to arrange for the convoy to transport it from the bus station first,” Qi Hancai responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a better option, “Alright, do that for now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you going to eat with us tonight?” Qi Hancai continued to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng shook his head, “No need, when I’m not here, you’re in charge of everything.
