The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Buzz~!

An invisible infrasound wave spread out like a tsunami.

The knights' pupils suddenly widened, and before they could scream, they fell en masse.

In an instant, no one was left standing in the Holy Hall's central district.

Only a metal cylinder quietly gleamed, still emitting white steam inside.

Outer City Area.

Wu Heng watched from afar as the guards on the wall rolled their eyes and fell back.

He then strode directly into the Inner City District's gate.

Behind the gate, the followers in the central district lay neatly unconscious on the ground, the scene eerie.

Wu Heng quickened his pace and walked towards the distant temple.

...

Temple, three minutes ago.

Brilliant Holy Light surged like waves, illuminating the entire temple as if the Divine Country had descended.

Underneath the colorful dome, the Milky Way poured down, turning into countless light dots that infused into the bodies of the three archbishops.

Their bodies gradually levitated, their holy robes fluttered without wind, and their faces appeared exceedingly holy in the radiance.

The Pope raised the scepter embedded with a Holy Crystal, conducting the ritual.

Boom! Boom!

Two loud bangs suddenly exploded, causing the entire temple to shake violently.

The Pope's blessing words abruptly ceased, his brows furrowed, a hint of vigilance and confusion flashing in his eyes.

His peripheral vision swept towards the hall doors, and the Great Knight stationed there immediately understood, turning to go out and investigate!

Buzz~!

Just as the Great Knight stepped over the threshold, a formless twisted energy spread out like ripples!

Crash~!

The knights at the door fell in droves, and the three archbishops, about to become heroes, rolled their eyes and lost consciousness.

The Holy Light on their bodies abruptly extinguished, and they fell heavily like puppets with severed strings!

The Pope's expression changed drastically, a dazzling golden shield immediately lit up around him.

However, that bizarre energy ignored the defense and penetrated directly.

He felt dizzy, his legs gave out, and he knelt with a thud!

In a haze, he saw a figure leisurely walk into the hall.

Their steps were as casual as a stroll in their own garden, heading straight to the Holy Cabinet beneath the statue, and with a touch, the Holy Cabinet vanished.

Then, the person came before him.

They looked down at him for a while, seemingly hesitating about something.

Finally, they merely bent over to pick up the scepter, took off the crown, and even swiped the Space Ring from his finger!

"You... cannot...," the Pope struggled to stop it, but could only whisper as if in a dream.

He couldn't even lift a single finger.

The visitor glanced down at him, the light of a teleportation array appearing at their feet, and then they vanished.

Teleportation Technique!

"Wu, Wu Heng!" the Pope squeezed out the name from between his teeth before falling completely into darkness.

Twenty minutes later!

The Pope suddenly opened his eyes, and a Purification Divine Art instantly dispelled the abnormal state within him.

As he staggered to his feet and took in the scene within the hall, his aged face twisted instantly.

The Holy Cabinet was gone!

The scepter and crown representing the Pope had also disappeared.

The entire temple seemed swept by a hurricane, leaving only unconscious knights and three archbishops who failed to ascend.

"Wu Heng...!!" the Pope's furious bellow echoed hysterically through the empty hall, "You will endure divine retribution! I will tear you to pieces!!"

...

Main Department.

In the meeting room, the lights were bright, illuminating the varied expressions on the faces around the round table.

The representative for Lilith's Blood Clan spoke softly, "The Lilith Leader confirms that all is normal on Gold and Silver Island, no abnormalities were found."

Hadara and Claudio exchanged a glance.

"What about Wu Heng?" Claudio's snow-white beard quivered slightly, "Has he exhibited any strange behavior?"

The Blood Clan representative shrugged elegantly, "The Lilith Leader did not mention him, presumably, he stayed on the island."

"I wonder if that thing is related to Wu Heng," Claudio said softly.

The Dwarf Leader spoke in a gruff voice, "Who else but Wu Heng would make those pointy iron lumps? It's redundant to ask!"

Claudio sighed, "To project such a vast object into the sky and have it fly so far... the craftsmanship of Gold and Silver Island is truly astonishing."

The dwarf's eyes, as large as brass bells, glared, "If those iron lumps are inscribed with destructive array patterns, their power would certainly be immense.."

Everyone's expressions changed suddenly.

Indeed, just passing across the sky had triggered the association's Defense Array.

If it truly carried an Attack Array, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Hadara turned to the religious representative, "Any news from the Holy Hall?"

The religious representative shook his head, "Still haven't received it...".

Before he finished speaking, the meeting room door was knocked on urgently.

A Priest rushed in, first saluting a few Leaders, then whispered into the religious representative's ear.

The religious representative's face visibly darkened, his eyes filled with astonishment, fear, and disbelief.

After the Priest stepped back, he was silent for a long time before slowly speaking, "Just received an urgent report from the Holy Hall! Wu Heng attacked the Holy Hall, but has been repelled, causing no casualties."

The meeting room fell silent.

Everyone looked at the Blood Clan representative, who had just mentioned there was nothing unusual at the Gold and Silver Island.

The Blood Clan representative remained composed, but explained, "The intelligence did not mention the movements of Leader Wu Heng. If Wu Heng indeed went to the Holy Hall, he might have intentionally avoided Lilith Leader."

No further discussion was raised about this.

Intelligence often has discrepancies sometimes, which is normal.

Claudio withdrew his gaze, with a surprised tone, "Does he really dare to charge into the Holy Hall?"

Not to mention Wu Heng.

If any hero present, or any hero not in their ruling period, dared to charge into the Holy Hall.

Others also slightly changed their expressions.

He is overly audacious.

The Dwarf Leader squinted his eyes, "The Holy Hall must have had a trump card to repel Wu Heng."

Wu Heng has killed so many Church Heroes.

If only the Pope was left in the Holy Hall, it's hard to say they repelled Wu Heng.

Hadara said, "Continue inquiring for more detailed information from the Holy Hall."

Then, turned to the Blood Clan representative, "Ask Lilith for specific circumstances."

"Yes!" the two representatives nodded in reply.

"Alright, for now, let's hope there's no loss," Hadara said.

Everyone got up and left.

The religious representative walked out of the building, his face turning a shade paler as he boarded the carriage.

...

A Phantom Train appeared out of nowhere, and Wu Heng stepped off.

After confirming he returned to the Gold and Silver Island, he let out a heavy sigh.

Despite being prepared, believing his plan was likely to succeed, he still felt a bit nervous.

Afraid that the Divine Spirit might reside in the Holy Hall, and he was delivering himself on a platter.

But the final outcome was good, only the Pope was left in the Holy Hall, and fearing to draw Divine Spirits' attention, he took things without killing.

Released the Ghost.

Xiao Xiao rushed over like a breeze, "Uncle! Did you get it?"

The other three Ghosts also floated over, eagerly staring at him.

Wu Heng patted his chest, "Got it, let's go back and check!"

The light of the Teleportation Technique shone again, and Wu Heng's figure disappeared.

The four Ghosts flew toward the Island Lord's Mansion.

The next second, Wu Heng appeared in the mansion courtyard.

In the corner furnace, two figures were practicing.

Wu Heng walked directly into the living room.

Mini greeted him as usual, skillfully helping him remove his armor, robe, and even inner armor, "Lilith Leader came looking for you, I said you were testing a new ship."

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, "Did she believe it?"

Mini gave an awkward smile, "Doesn't seem so, Lilith Leader was icy cold, I was afraid she'd hit me."

Wu Heng ruffled her hair, "No way, she's quite tall privately."

"Really? That makes Lilith Leader much cuter." Mini immediately changed her attitude.

Wu Heng chuckled, "Get along well in the future."

"Huh?" Mini didn't quite understand, then asked, "Was the master successful this time?"

"Very successful!" Wu Heng laughed, "Prepare some good food and wine tonight, let's celebrate."

"Okay!" Mini happily dashed to the kitchen, her bunny ears bouncing.

Not seeing anyone else, Wu Heng went upstairs to the study.

Just as he pushed the door and stepped into the study, the four Ghosts eagerly surrounded him.

"Uncle! Quickly check out this loot."

Wu Heng casually waved his hand, a silver glow flashed.

Then, a silver-white Holy Cabinet appeared on the desk.

The cabinet was carved with intricate runes, and images of angels and followers, each line flowing with faint light, pulsing as if alive.

Wu Heng focused his attention on it.
