The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 220: Chapter 191, Secret Speaker Leader_1

The merchants of the inner city had been killed off, and the Hammer Party attacked the Outer City Area.

Two people were sent to him exactly at this point in time, neither too early nor too late.

He could tell that something was fishy.

Now his suspicions were confirmed, both were undercover agents assigned to him.

The thieve was brought in by outsiders to investigate any possible information about him.

And the swordsman was one of Gomez’s men.

He was tasked to monitor his movements.

Gomez had begun to cast suspicions on him after the events of the past few times.

However, he had no substantial evidence, and this time, he directly arranged for someone to join his team to keep a close eye on him.

The thief’s situation was completely different from that of the swordsman.

One might say that if Gomez’s men were to find something suspicious, they would still need to abide by the guild’s rules and procedures.

But the thief was an outsider sent in to spy on him.

The person behind this could be from the Iron Guard Knights, the Secret Cultivation Hall, or any other shadowy figures who might have taken an interest in him.

Killing and questioning the corpse would be the simplest and most effective method.

But now, the person in question was a member of his own squad.

Due to this status, he couldn’t be too obvious about his actions.

He could only take things one step at a time and figure out what these two people really wanted to know.

After a little rest.

Wu Heng stood up and headed towards his residence.

…

As dusk approached.

Sounds of footsteps and conversations could be heard from downstairs.

Mini and Andre Willow returned from the outside with several skeleton guards.

The city was becoming increasingly chaotic, and the stores were closing down even earlier.

Whether a lot or a few goods were sold didn’t matter; the main concern was people’s safety.

Wu Heng came downstairs.

The two women looked up at the sound of footsteps, their faces simultaneously brightening and relaxing.

“Master!” Mini cheered and tackled him in a hug.

She clung onto him, coquettishly showing her affection.

Wu Heng held onto her soft, tender body, then put her aside and asked, “Are there any problems with the store?”

Andre Willow hung her coat on the side and answered, “There hasn’t been any problem so far, but the outer city is getting pretty chaotic now. I saw several groups of people fighting at the herbal shop across from us. Even the gang members came to maintain order.”

In fact, Wu Heng was just unlucky.

The pricing, after a few adjustments by Andre Willow, could now sort of meet the market demand.

But different incidents kept happening, causing the store to keep opening and closing.

They hardly earned much money in the end.

But there was nothing much to be done about the events that had transpired.

“The inner city has also started to assist in defending the outer city, so there’s a small chance of a riot. Be careful when you go out. If there’s any problem, go directly to Wen Mansha of the Sharp Peak Gang,” Wu Heng instructed.

The two women nodded in understanding.

They sat in the living room for a while before preparing dinner.

…

Knock, Knock, Knock~!

Just before dinner, there was a knock on the door.

Mini, skipping and hopping, opened the door.

Wen Mansha, clad in leather armor with weapons at her waist, walked in.

She was followed by several guards.

She hung her cloak at the entrance and, upon turning around, greeted with a smile and said “Master,” before walking directly into the living room.

Wu Heng nodded, “How’s the Outer City Area?”

“There are signs of disorder, but the gangs are restrained, and no large scale gang fights have erupted yet.” Wen Mansha took a seat and continued, “The Sharp Peak Gang was assigned a task by the city hall, we have to patrol and maintain order.”

“Is the city hall supporting you?”

There were countless local gangs, and any random person you could pull off the street was a gang member.

But any gang that received any sort of backing from the city hall would undoubtedly be highly influential.

The Sharp Peak Gang was quite small before, it was surprising that they were tasked with an assignment by the city hall.

“Support? Not at all. They’ve allocated the task to various gangs to count their numbers. Once a war breaks out with the ‘Hammer Party,’ they will push us into it under the guise of being a task. It’s the same old trick.” Wen Mansha spoke with a sense of helplessness.

Wu Heng understood what she meant.

In other words, they were basically conscripting some gangs. When they were not needed, they would patrol and maintain order. And when the time for battle came, they would be directly pushed to the front lines.

A seasoned gang leader like Wen Mansha was no stranger to these tactics.

However, knowing this, the local gangs didn’t have much of a choice.

It was either compliance or suppression.

If any hesitation or resistance was shown, they would be attacked and disbanded by other gangs before the war with the Hammer Party even started.

“What are you planning to do?” Wu Heng asked further.

“Sigh~!” Wen Mansha sighed, “The Sharp Peak Gang has been too conspicuous lately. After annihilating the White Wolf Gang, we recruited many people, catching the attention of the city hall. There’s no other choice right now. We just have to take it one step at a time, cooperate with their patrol work. It’s not like it comes at a loss.”

From this point of view, it seemed reasonable.

Whether or not the Hammer Party would attack was still uncertain.

Defying the city hall’s directive right now was obviously not a wise choice.

They could observe the situation for now and if things really escalated to the point of war, then they could plan their next move. It wouldn’t be too late.

“Alright, be careful.” Wu Heng urged.

“Yes, Master.”

After a bit of conversation.

Dinner was ready.

The group gathered round for dinner. Wen Mansha, like an elder sister, was inquiring about the other two and occasionally gave instructions, as if scolding her own children.

Mini and Andre Willow lowered their heads and ate their meal.

Sitting alongside Wen Mansha, the gang leader’s wife,

felt somewhat overwhelming.

The atmosphere was slightly tense.

…

After dinner,

the group had a chat in the living room.

Mini practiced some boxing techniques with Bawudong, while Wen Mansha and Andre Willow discussed the store.

As night gradually fell.

Wu Heng returned to his bedroom with Wen Mansha, while Mini and Andre Willow also went back to their own rooms to rest.

Professional workers are physically stronger and have more stamina than normal people.

After several rounds.

With a flush still on her face, Wen Mansha quietly climbed back on top of him, sitting on him.

Wu Heng reached out his hands, holding up her round softness, and said, “you’ve been quite forward lately.”

Though he enjoyed it, Wen Mansha’s initiative was a bit over the top.

Every time they met, they would go through this process.

Wen Mansha looked at him with seductive eyes, “Master, don’t you like it?”

“I really do,” Wu Heng smiled, “but I just worry about any pressure you might have.”

Wen Mansha hesitated before finally saying: “Master, at my age, if I want a child, I need to take the initiative.”

She paused after saying this.

She looked at him with a pitiful expression, whispered, “Is that okay?”

Wu Heng was taken aback.

In this world, both men and women start families early, and they have children even earlier.

Considering Wen Mansha’s age, she was indeed a bit old.

“Then try harder.”

“Mm-hmm, thank you, master.”

An elated expression appeared on Wen Mansha’s face, becoming more active.

…

When it was done, Wen Mansha controlled her emotions.

With the flush of her face slightly fading, she said, “Now the Pinned Gang has close to two thousand members. After the matter with the Hammer Party is settled, we can collect more information for you, help you earn meritorious deeds.”

Wu Heng, still touching her smooth body, said, “No rush. All the teams have temporarily stopped capturing fugitives. We can discuss it later.”

“Oh, that’s a good idea,” Wen Mansha nodded with a smile.

Wu Heng got up to drink some water, then took out a bottle of ‘strength potion’ from the Space Ring, “This is for you, drinking it can enhance your strength.”

Wen Mansha narrowed her eyes slightly, smiled and said, “Master, where did you get such a potion? Only those nobles can afford it.”

“Are you afraid I might harm you?”

Wen Mansha looked at him a bit resentfully, “What are you talking about? I’m all yours, there is no chance I can harm you.”

“It’s a good thing. I’ve made a lot of effort to get it. This could also improve your ability to protect yourself.”

A potion made from the Corpse Core.

It won’t increase the level, but it directly affects your physical properties. It’s not much different from leveling up.

“Okay!” Instead of taking it, Wen Mansha got off the bed,

Kneeling down, she opened her mouth wide, “Master, pour it in.”

“Don’t spill it.”

“Then, be careful.”

“You’re getting better at this. Open your mouth wider.”

Wu Heng slowly poured the potion from the bottle.

The silvery moonlight made the potion look even more crystal clear.

Wen Mansha swallowed it big mouthfuls, her throat bobbing.

Only when she had finished drinking the potion

Did she lower her head, catching her breath.

Soon, her face changed, her whole body started getting red.

She slumped on the ground, moaning softly.

But soon, the abnormal condition on her body disappeared rapidly.

Wen Mansha was back to her normal self, standing up and stretching a little.

Surprise spread across her face, “I feel like I have become stronger.”

“Of course, this potion is very precious,” Wu Heng wiped the drops of water from the corner of her mouth and put it back into her mouth.

“Thank you, Master.”

“Okay, rest now, it’s getting late.”

They settled back into the bed, holding each other as they rested.

…

The next day.

After breakfast.

Wen Mansha left early, as she still needed to run the gang and couldn’t dally around for too long.

Mini and Andre Willow went to the shop as well.

Wu Heng opened the boundary door, first he went to check the Zombie World.

After verifying that Li Yahong and her team hadn’t returned, he left his house and headed to the association.

As soon as he entered the hall.

A staff member from the front desk came up with a wax-sealed envelope.

“Captain Wu Heng, you have mail.”

“Thank you!”

Wu Heng walked over to receive the letter, then headed straight to the lounge.

There was no one in the lounge as the squad wasn’t there yet.

Wu Heng sat down at the desk, opened the envelope and took a look.

The reply came faster than he expected, it was somewhat surprising.

He tore open the envelope, confirmed the sender.

It was Slyther’s response.

The contents of the letter mentioned that he should stay away from the ‘Secret Cultivation Hall’ and not get too involved with them.

Meanwhile, it also mentioned the special item – Blood Cup.

According to Slyther, this special item is related to the Eternal Night Clan. She hoped he wouldn’t give it to the ‘Secret Cultivation Hall’. If she handled it, it would be of great help to both him and Slyther.

In the letter he had written to Slyther, he only mentioned the Blood Cup, one of the two special items, since it was just an item from a fugitive.

Unexpectedly, it also involved the Eternal Night Clan.

“No wonder the reply came so fast, she is afraid that I will sell the Blood Cup.”

It was Slyther’s good luck.

He and the ‘Secret Cultivation Hall’ are now at a life-or-death impasse. No matter how much money they offered, he wouldn’t sell it to them.

He re-read the letter again.

An idea suddenly crossed his mind.

Among the leaders of the association’s factions.

The leader who serves as a ‘Secret Speaker’ is ‘Lilith Ann Beshmte’ from the Blood Clan.
