The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

"Got it!" Xiao Xiao skillfully possessed, then ran outside.

Bella followed suit, saying, "Give me the puppet too, the environment on the ship is nice, I want to take a few shots."

Wu Heng took out the puppets of the Three Souls and his phone, "Be careful."

The Three Souls possessed and then walked outside.

Wu Heng picked up his phone and dialed the number for Black Stone Town's "Slyther" for a video chat.

...

Zombie World, New Eden Base.

Sunlight streamed through the glass, casting large patches of light on the ground.

Zhao Yanqiu was draped in a luxurious Archbishop's robe, holding a golden scepter, standing on the front high platform.

On the lower benches sat local believers.

With a devout attitude, they followed along chanting the doctrine.

Dong~!

The metallic clang sounded like the tolling of a judgment bell as a man with a broken arm and Western features walked in and kneeled on one knee before the high platform, trembling as he spoke in Chinese, "I'm, I'm asking for the Archbishop's help..."

Zhao Yanqiu glanced at him, "Prepare!"

The man lay directly at the edge of the platform, and the accompanying medical staff injected anesthesia.

Zhao Yanqiu waved his scepter, "May the Lord grant you new life."

The scepter suddenly burst with dazzling golden light, enveloping the man's broken arm.

Even with the anesthesia, the man still showed an expression of pain.

At the site of the broken limb, flesh and blood began to wriggle violently, bone, muscle, and skin grew and extended at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The believers below collectively widened their eyes.

Staring intently at this scene.

When the man was taken down, the whole church boiled over.

"It grew back just like that?"

"What they said on the forum was true, it's really a miracle!"

"Oh my god! Divine Spirits really exist."

Zhao Yanqiu looked at the crowd.

Next, a girl with amputated legs was wheeled up. Her hollow eyes suddenly burst with hope when they touched the scepter.

Zhao Yanqiu smiled, reassuring, "It's okay, when you wake up, you'll be able to stand again."

After being given anesthesia, the girl fell into a deep sleep, Zhao Yanqiu released the spell again, and her severed legs grew back.

...

At dusk, today's preaching ended.

Zhao Yanqiu was escorted by skeleton attendants back to her residence.

She closed the door again.

Only then did Zhao Yanqiu slowly breathe a sigh of relief.

She took off the heavy coat and changed into lighter clothing.

Then she knelt on the simple prayer mat, her hands folded against her forehead, starting to repent in front of the scepter.

"I was wrong, please forgive my transgression, I was wrong, please forgive my..."

She set a standard for herself, would release the scepter's power five times a day, and commit to five confessions accordingly.

To prevent forgetting and face the side effects her daughter mentioned.

After the repentance finished, she slowly stood up, solemnly stored the scepter in a wooden box, picked up her phone, and logged onto the forum to check.

The first post: "Spirit Awakening Sect Archbishop goes to New Eden to preach, helps believers regain limbs on site (live footage)"

Zhao Yanqiu raised an eyebrow, clicked in to view.

It was a video, and not far from the high platform, though somewhat blurry, the scene was still visible.

It was the process of her helping believers regrow limbs.

She continued scrolling down the comment section, evidently more lively.

"My uncle was there! He said that white person's arm grew right on the spot!"

"Definitely special effects! How could there be Gods in the End of the World?"

"New here upstairs? Spirit Awakening Sect has demonstrated at three bases already! How could it be fake?"

"When will they come to our base? Please Archbishop!"

Zhao Yanqiu's fingertips lightly brushed the screen, a smile on her lips, "Wu Heng and Xiao Xiao must be quite happy seeing the effect so good."

Knock knock knock.

"Archbishop, 'Kelder' leader has prepared a dinner party, please grace us with your presence!" The Priest's voice came through the door.

Kelder is the local base's Vice Leader, specially responsible for Spirit Awakening Sect's connectivity matters.

Zhao Yanqiu's brows furrowed slightly, she thought for a moment and said, "Thank Mr. Kelder for me, but I'll pass on the dinner party, I've got to preach for the next three days, need to preserve my energy."

"Yes!" answered the voice outside, followed by footsteps fading away.

Once the footsteps had left, Zhao Yanqiu reopened the window.

The base remained lively at night, and above the church, various rays of light circled, like a new miracle.

...

Four days later, the ship docked.

Workers began to unload the goods, and in the streets far away, bustling crowds could be seen.

This was a seaside port of the Dwarf Race. Besides dwarves, you could also see elves, the Human Race, or members of the Dwarf Race.

Wu Heng put on the Faceless Mask, turned to look at Retili beside him. The blonde elf didn't even bother to wear a hood, letting her appearance be exposed to everyone.

"Here, no one knows me. I'm just an ordinary elf," Retili smiled, explaining in a low voice.

Standing at the port, Wu Heng asked, "Do you have anything else to take care of?"

"Nothing else," Retili continued, "I can have the local consortium prepare a carriage to make it more convenient."

"No need, you just come out of the city with me," Wu Heng said directly.

"Alright!"

Wu Heng and Retili walked out of the city gate, standing at the edge of the dirt road.

A convoy of dwarves was slowly passing by, pulling a few carts of goods. The escorts looked curiously at the two of them.

"Sir, is there someone coming to meet us?" Retili looked around.

"No!" Wu Heng took out a pitch-black motorcycle from the Space Ring.

Retili's eyes widened, exclaiming instinctively, "Lilith Leader's steel wolf!"

Steel wolf!

It sounds quite majestic.

When on the Gold and Silver Island, only Lilith used to ride it out.

"Helmet." Wu Heng handed her a helmet, already straddling the bike, "Sit at the back."

Retili put on the helmet and sat behind him.

Hesitant for a moment, she still carefully wrapped her arms around Wu Heng's waist.

"Here we go!" Wu Heng said, twisting the throttle.

Vroom~!

At the moment the engine roared, the motorcycle shot out like an arrow from a bow.

Amid the rumbling, Retili's screams could still be heard.

...

Behind the bike, four Ghosts trailed at a distance.

"Sister Retili is coming along too? It feels so inconvenient!" Xiao Xiao pouted.

Bella, next to her, said, "What are you afraid of? She's seen you before."

"Can we still go out to have fun? Weren't we supposed to come for a tour?" Xiao Xiao continued.

Glenda laughed and said, "Retili might stay with us for a while; otherwise, she would have come for nothing."

"Huh?" Xiao Xiao couldn't quite understand.

Lady then said, "When we get there, let your uncle take more money, and we'll go out shopping ourselves. If Retili wants to stick around, it won't affect us."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "Alright, there are so many things I want to buy!"

The Four Ghosts chatted and sped up to catch up again.

...

At dusk, the outline of a city appeared in the distance.

The entire city wall was dyed with a rusty color by the setting sun. Guards could be seen patrolling the walls, and dwarf guards at specific positions leaned on their Battle Axes, with eyes like bronze bells scrutinizing every entrant.

Wu Heng's motorcycle stopped in the distance. Retili lifted the helmet visor, her golden hair sticking to her forehead with sweat.

She exhaled a long breath, her chest still heaving. The ride was more thrilling than she had imagined.

"Uncle, why did we stop?" Xiao Xiao appeared next to them.

Retili didn't find it strange, smiled, and greeted, "Xiao Xiao!"

"Sister Retili!" Xiao Xiao also greeted politely.

"Let's go into the city and rest for a night." Wu Heng put away the motorcycle and looked at Retili, "Is that alright?"

Retili straightened her collar, which had been messed up by the wind, "As you say."

"Then, can we go out for a stroll later?" Xiao Xiao asked.

"Sure! But the dwarves have a bad temper, don't provoke them," Wu Heng said casually as he walked forward.

"We won't provoke them. If they get angry, we'll just run," Xiao Xiao immediately said.

Retili smiled beside her as well.

As they approached the city gate, Xiao Xiao became invisible again.

The dwarf guard glanced at the two of them, "What brings you to the city?"

"Just passing through, plan to stay for a night," Wu Heng produced a silver badge of the Inspector from the association, while Retili handed over the Crystal Card of the Snake Badge Consortium as proof.

The guard frowned.

Clearly, their levels were not low; association inspectors were at least Level 18, and the head of the Snake Badge Consortium held a significant position too.

Just how did these two end up together?

He didn't ask further, simply allowing them through.

Passing through the archway, the noisy sounds rushed in.

Inside the city were mostly dwarves, with hardly any elves or humans visible.

Retili looked at the sky and asked quietly, "Sir, where should we stay?"
