The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 446: Chapter 368, Snake Badge Auction (One update today).

(In the previous chapter, there were some changes made, so if you’ve read ahead, brothers, take another look.)

Wu Jingguang was in his forties, with short hair, thick eyebrows, and a square face.@@novelbin@@

He had the look of someone very capable and efficient.

Before the apocalypse, he must have also held an important position.

Wu Heng, after listening to the other party’s words, looked puzzled again.

The invitation for the old factory district to enter the military shelter had been raised before, last time by Yang Long and Qi Hancai.

At that time, the market had just been established, and the old factory district was selling food to the outside, displaying an abundance of supplies.

This time they sent a different disaster relief commander, likely the scouts that left yesterday had taken the news back.

“You’re leaving this place?” Wu Heng asked in return.

Wu Jingguang did not hide the truth, nodding as he said, “Honestly, we will leave here before winter comes, withdraw all our forces and meet up with the provincial rescue team, and at the same time, we’ll take a few cooperating shelters with us.”

It seemed, just like ‘Qi Hancai’ had guessed, they were offloading supplies in preparation to leave this place.

Wu Heng glanced at Qi Hancai, Li Yahong, and a few others, and spoke very directly, “Thanks for Commander Wu’s good intentions, but we are used to living here and don’t want to leave yet.”

Wu Jingguang continued, “The strength of the zombies is constantly increasing, and the living space for survivors is gradually shrinking. Only by uniting can we have a better chance of survival.”

“We can plan our own development without the idea of joining any forces,” Wu Heng said even more directly.

Food and military power, the two most important things, neither was in short supply for him.

Moreover, Wu Heng was confident that he would be stronger than any other shelter.

How could he possibly give his hard-earned development to others?

Wu Jingguang’s gaze hardened slightly as he said, “Leader Wu should think of the greater good, and the future of humanity.”

With a smile, Wu Heng replied, “Commander Wu, why not bring your people to join the old factory district? We also have a plan for building a fortress and unified development.”

This…

Wu Jingguang started to say something several times but eventually did not continue.

After a moment of contemplation, he revealed a smile again, “It was just a suggestion. Since Leader Wu has his own plans, I won’t insist.”

Wu Heng nodded, then continued to ask, “When do you plan to leave?”

“The exact time has not been decided yet, but Leader Wu would need to keep it a secret for us.”

“Of course.”

Wu Jingguang thought for a moment, then continued, “The pricing of the military equipment from the old factory district, isn’t it a bit too low? Perhaps you could raise it a bit.”

Wu Heng sighed softly, his tone resigned, “We have so few people, we can’t use so much equipment even if we did collect it; it would just gather dust in the warehouse. Food is more important.”

“Military equipment is more sophisticated. Properly stored, it can still be used in the future without a loss.”

After thinking for a while, Wu Heng said, “Let’s discuss it then and see if we can make some adjustments.”

“Hmm!” Wu Jingguang nodded with a smile.

“How is the provincial area developing?”

“They are gradually reclaiming key areas and also planning to take back military-industrial enterprises.”

“Then it seems it really is better than small places like ours.”

“Yes, after all, it is a key strategic location. Once ammunition production is restored, I can get you connected so we can exchange what we each need.”

Wu Heng also nodded with a smile, “That would be best.”

“Those bone soldiers outside, are they your superpower? They really are quite amazing.”

“It was an unintentional awakening, and I took a lot of risks at the time,” Wu Heng answered.

Wu Jingguang continued to ask, “Which Corpse Core did you consume to manifest this ability?”

Wu Heng did not answer but just shook his head slightly.

“Haha, sorry for the many questions, Leader Wu, please don’t take offense.”

The few of them sat together for a while.

Each tried to probe and gather intelligence about the other.

Wu Jingguang was interested in Wu Heng’s superpower and the food sources of the old factory district.

Wu Heng was inquiring about some matters in the provincial area.

After chatting for a while,

Wu Jingguang got up and said, “Then we’ll head back for now. If you need anything in the future, let’s keep in touch.”

“Of course.” Wu Heng nodded, seeing the several people out downstairs.

They got into a military transport vehicle and drove off into the distance.

Watching the vehicle fade away,

Qiangzi spoke with some dissatisfaction, “Damn, a rescue team? Haven’t seen them rescue anyone, now they’re planning to leave first, and they even want to freeload off us.”

Wang Chenggang also chimed in, “Recently, they’ve been frequently going to the market to exchange for food. It looks like they are preparing to leave, planning to swap for more food and go.”

“Yes, that’s probably why,” Qi Hancai agreed.

Once the vehicle completely disappeared, Wu Heng spoke up, “Let’s go, let’s return to the meeting room to discuss.”

The few nodded and went back to the meeting room.

…

Aboard the military armored vehicle.

“Those skeletons, they truly are a superpower,” Wu Jingguang began.

He was somewhat incredulous to hear about such an ability at first.

Now, seeing the teeming Skeleton Army,

He was not only convinced of its existence but was also astonished and a little fearful of the superpower.

“It should be his superpower, that Qi Hancai manages the camp, but the real power lies in his hands,” Yang Long said.

“Ai, he’s capable, but it’s a pity he doesn’t have a vision for the bigger picture. Such a waste!” Wu Jingguang sighed softly.

“Should we keep contacting him?” Yang Long didn’t comment on Wu Heng but asked directly instead.

Wu Jingguang shook his head, “No need, the railway side is almost ready. In these few days, we will exchange all the supplies for food and leave here to meet up with the provincial area. Once our military production is restored, that will be when he comes to us for an exchange of resources.”
