sudden level up took Wu Heng by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was faster than he had anticipated, reaching level 15 directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the battlefield ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few more zombies were continuously rushing out from the residential areas on both sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their numbers were no longer formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Advance, exterminate all zombies!” Wu Heng commanded outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skeleton army that had been waiting for orders immediately sprang into action, brandishing their long spears as they charged towards the incoming horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, weapons cleaved through flesh, and the chilling roars of the zombies rose again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng rapidly issued several orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instructed the mutated skeletons by his side to also charge into the horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he watched the zombies fall one after another, Wu Heng took the opportunity to open his panel and check his attributes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Name: Wu Heng]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Level: 15 (423\u002F195000)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Attributes: Strength 40, Agility 30, Constitution 44, Intelligence 39, Perception 25, Charm 28.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Feats: … One-handed Sword

required to level up from 15 to 16 reached 195,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was an increase of thirty thousand from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it seemed normal, as the previous levels had increased in the same manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the attribute points, this level up added a total of four points to his stats, two in intelligence and one each in constitution and perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, leveling up only increased his attributes by two points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was uncertain whether it was only at level 15 that attributes would increase by four points or if subsequent levels would follow the same pattern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the feats and abilities unlocked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>there were more than what ‘Xi Ligui’ had described.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had gained a total of four new ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng began to review each one in turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Master Caster]: You wield supreme spellcasting abilities, your magic’s potency, casting speed, and duration have all reached master level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Tireless Focus]: Under a focused state, the mind and energy will not tire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Breath of the Wraith]: Capable of absorbing necromantic and wraith energies, swiftly healing physical injuries and replenishing spiritual power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Divine Presence]: Can descend into an attendant’s body, gaining control over it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A total of four kinds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Master Caster] acts as an enhancement for the Mage profession, bringing spell strength and casting speed to master level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This signifies that there’s now a distinction between him and regular professionals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All spell-related abilities have reached the standard of a master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Tireless Focus] ensures that while focused, the mind and energy will not tire, which corresponds to the mental exhaustion that comes with studying spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the Master Caster, it’s an amplification for the Mage profession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next is [Breath of the Wraith], which allows absorption of necromantic and wraith energies to heal one’s own injuries and restore spiritual power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s probably because of this feat that Wu Heng can now sense the pervasive necromantic power around him, ready for him to absorb into his own body whenever he wishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the battlefield, it could be used to heal his own wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in peacetime, it could be used to restore his spiritual power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, he could save money on potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last one, [Divine Presence], is an unlocked ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From its description, the effect of Divine Presence is to descend into the body of an attendant and take control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t quite understand the meaning of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My gaze shifted to the area where the battle was taking place in front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thought, I cast “Divine Presence”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, my consciousness found itself inside a spear-wielding skeleton on the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of me was a zombie with a pierced chest, its teeth bared, frantically clawing at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, but I soon realized what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I lifted my foot to push back the lunging zombie, pulled the spear out, and thrust it into the zombie’s mouth once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, I was also astonished by the effect of “Divine Presence”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That it could be used in such a way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I observed the scene again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skeletons’ mode of sensing was different from living creatures seeing images and colors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything around was a gray-white world, and both the zombies and other skeletons appeared as entities of the same energy shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I decided to end the “Divine Presence” state and regain control of my own body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did you just do?” Glenda asked as she flew down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I counter-asked, “Is there a problem?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seemed like your spirit had disappeared. When Xiao Xiao and I came over, you were just standing there looking silly,” Glenda said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant during my “Divine Presence” state, my body would remain in a spiritless state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Xiao circled around me and then said, “Uncle, you seem different, there’s a very comfortable aura about you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, your necromantic aura makes us feel very comfortable,” Glenda added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Necromancer, I naturally emanated Necromantic Power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reaching level 15, this aura became even more intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have reached level 15 and become a great Mage. That’s probably why you feel my necromantic aura has become stronger,” I explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Xiao didn’t understand all these details, but clapped enthusiastically, “Wow, that’s amazing, what’s a great Mage?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It means I’ve been promoted and have become more powerful,” I explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, uncle is so powerful,” Xiao Xiao repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You deserve some credit too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glenda’s expression was full of surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clearly understood what level 15 represented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Wu Heng brought her out, he was not even level 10, and now he had quickly advanced to level 15.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had she followed a human genius?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This matter was even more astonishing than Wu Heng possessing a special world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to a person and a spirit flattering each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glenda continued to ask, “Did your spirit vanish just now because of that reason as well?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhmm, it’s an ability of level 15.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Use it again,” she requested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I used the ability again; my body instantly appeared beside Big Head Skull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning back to look at my own body, I saw ‘Glenda’ directly entering it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Controlling the body, I examined my hands and feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, she possessed me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I ended “Divine Presence” in an instant, reclaiming my body’s control, and Glenda flew out again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you leave your body, I can control it,” she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh, that can be done too,” I continued to ask, “How does it feel to have a body again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Suddenly feeling the body, it’s a bit uncomfortable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the future, if there’s a special situation, you guys take control of my body and run first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They chatted on the spot for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle ahead was also gradually drawing to a close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skeletons began cleaning up the battlefield, and Qi Hancai and others came over from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They started searching the nearby shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng, however, set his sights on the bodies of several evolved zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly cast [Corpse Battlefield], the range of the gray-white circle almost covering the surrounding ten meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Broader than before, the skeletons no longer needed to gather the bodies together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the light circle passed, the evolved zombies stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng found two Corpse Cores among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put them in his Space Ring and continued on his way, casting [Corpse Battlefield], and more skeletons rose up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Joining the queue at the rear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Wu Heng kept casting, the surrounding Breath of Death continuously restored his spiritual power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It allowed him to maintain frequent use of spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all the skeletons were transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hancai and the others also came back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few survivors were moving bicycles in a bike specialty store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed to be a brand, with all sorts of cycling gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There aren’t many zombies nearby; I’ll arrange for a thorough scavenging tomorrow,” Qi Hancai said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, he carefully sized him up and down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling that something was somewhat different from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, let’s head back,” Wu Heng nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They got into the truck, and after the rest finished transporting bicycles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The convoy started up again, heading toward the mall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the mall, in the manager’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hancai brought over a backpack full of gold and nineteen level one Corpse Cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Wu Heng put them away, he handed her two elixirs and said, “Drink them yourself, don’t tell anyone else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that he had once again given her elixirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Joy appeared on Qi Hancai’s face, “Understood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng said, “Keep an eye on the military; let me know if there’s any movement.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All right, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hancai left the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Wu Heng put away the items and tidied up briefly, he also opened the boundary door and returned to collect silver and more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming out of the study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sent the Corpse Cores to the Alchemy Room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had Mini prepare bath water and enjoyed a comfortable bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andre Willow also came back from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng said, “There’s no need to prepare dinner; let’s go eat at Shanaila’s place.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master is thinking about Sister Shanaila again, huh!” Mini said playfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng lightly patted her on the back, “Don’t talk nonsense!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When both maids had also changed, Wu Heng took them out, walking next door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knock knock knock~!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knocked lightly on the courtyard door, and the housekeeper opened it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Deputy Steward Wu Heng, the two misses,” the housekeeper greeted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, is Lady Shanaila in? We’ve come to see her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please wait a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, the main door opened, and the house steward said softly, “Please come in, the Lady is waiting for you in the living room.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Passing through the courtyard, they entered the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They saw Shanaila, dressed in a gorgeous gown, sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Seeing them arrive, she revealed a bright smile, “Here you are!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, has the Starflower Caravan been here recently?” Wu Heng asked casually as he sat down next to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaila shook her head, “Not so soon; it will approach the port in the next few days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, let me know when it does.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure!” Shanaila continued, “I heard that recently the pirates have started to harass the sailing routes again; is the Association taking any action?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The steward is arranging it; there will probably be some plans when the time comes,” he replied, gazing intently at her exquisite face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaila’s cheeks turned a bit red, and she glanced at him reproachfully, changing the subject, “Dinner is almost ready; let’s go to the dining room!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all stood up and moved towards the dining room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they walked, Shanaila said, “I have some precious ingredients here; it’s a good opportunity for you to try them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yay! I told you coming to Sister Shanaila’s was the right decision,” Mini cheered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seated at the dining table, dinner was served.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They began to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng asked, “How do you usually verify someone’s level?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaila glanced at him and explained, “Most of the time, it’s based on their combat strength and some intelligence. The wanted orders from your Association use this method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s also a magical item called Detect Level, which is a kind of divination spell. Its function is to help organizations identify the level of individuals they’re recruiting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Individual levels are considered private.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the face of danger, the level can be the key to whether you can defeat an enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Association does not record specific levels in the archives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But each person can estimate; a steward is at least level 12, and a deputy steward is at least level 10 or above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Shanaila smiled at him, “Why, have you leveled up?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just asking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They chatted while eating, all enjoying the meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Wu Heng took the two maids and bade farewell to Shanaila.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As night fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two maids also went back to their rooms to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng stepped out into the courtyard, folded a paper crane, and sent it flying into Shanaila’s lit room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaila, with her hair down, peered out the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng pointed at the rooftop; she nodded in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up to the rooftop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Shanaila leaped over, she gave a light slap and said, “We just parted, why are you looking for me again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng took her hand and asked, “Do you keep your promises?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Are you saying I don’t?” Shanaila asked with a hint of suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng said quietly, “I’m level 15 now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanaila’s eyebrows furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes slowly widened.\u003C\u002Fp>",2152,"2026-05-30T04:42:17.488Z","2026-06-01T04:30:19.980Z",1,"novelbin.me","53fe69f8cba83067144e9c7d095f54aec1457a746fbafb9f5e3b89ce5e29c8b1","the-necromancer-is-amassing-troops-like-crazy-in-chapter-468","the-necromancer-is-amassing-troops-like-crazy-in-chapter-466",1714,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-necromancer-is-amassing-troops-like-crazy-in-cover.jpg"]
