The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse-Chapter 1142 - 880: Not Limited to Species_3

"Smooth talker!" Lilith gave him a glance.

The carriage eventually arrived near the Island Lord’s Mansion. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Both of them returned to their respective mansions.

...

Island Lord’s Mansion!

After Wu Heng returned, he informed Shanaela and the Maid who were waiting at home about the Investigation Team’s departure.

Hearing that nothing was discovered in the investigation, the women in the house all breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Heng then said, "I’m going upstairs, Mini, call ’Mackintosh’ and invite her over for dinner tonight."

"Of course, Master." Mini agreed immediately and went to make the call.

Wu Heng also went upstairs, entering the radio room.

He glanced at the logbook in front of each radio.

After confirming nothing was amiss, he sat at the radio connected to Wen Mansha and picked up the handset, "Wen Mansha, can you hear me?"

He waited for about two to three minutes.

Wen Mansha’s voice came through, "Master, I’m here!"

Hearing her voice, Wu Heng’s face unconsciously revealed a smile, asking, "How have you been recently?"

Wen Mansha’s voice was gentle, "Every day I spend time with the children and handle some affairs of several cities. It’s busy, but other than missing you, everything else is fine."

Resting back in his chair, Wu Heng continued to inquire, "The cities under the Second Prince, everything is alright with them?"

"There’s no problem. The exchange of officials and the handover of the military have been completed. Natalia is still impersonating the Second Prince. She has fully immersed herself in the role, even summoning several former officials a few times and no one noticed anything," Wen Mansha said with a laugh.

Natalia was the name of the Second Prince’s Princess.

When Wu Heng left Lundham City, the Princess stayed behind in Lundham City using a mask and voice-changing device to impersonate the Second Prince and stabilize the situation.

The original plan was to impersonate for a while, then find a reason to leave in order to reduce the number of times the Second Prince appeared and avoid being exposed.

Now it seems that the Princess has been impersonating all this time and has been doing pretty well.

"That’s good. Is there any problem with the Crown Prince?" Wu Heng asked next.

Wen Mansha pondered for a moment then said, "The Crown Prince has recently started to reinforce troops at the border, and there has also been traces of high-level professionals in Lundham City."

Wu Heng’s brow furrowed, immediately thinking of the reason for these changes.

With the departure of the Religious Leader due to the Pope’s death, the Crown Prince’s side began to stir again.

Aside from heroes, it’s difficult for ordinary members of the association to deter those people.

"Is there any danger in Lundham City?" Wu Heng asked.

"Currently, there’s no danger," Wen Mansha replied.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and reassured, "It’s fine, I’ll arrange for high-level Skeletons to go protect you."

"Kerim is with me, and he’s enough to ensure our safety," Wen Mansha said.

Kerim was Level 17, and with an Evil Sword, he could even exert the strength of Level 18 or even higher.

But after all, it involved the safety of Wen Mansha and his daughter.

"There’s also the daughter. It’s better to be cautious... Just listen to my arrangements," Wu Heng insisted.

"I got it, Master," Wen Mansha’s voice was even softer, then she added, "The power plant construction you mentioned before can be arranged now."

The territories taken over from the Second Prince were originally planned to establish some power plants.

At the same time, developing the local minerals and other resources.

Now that some areas have stabilized, they could be put into action.

"Alright, tonight I’ll arrange for a Mechanist to go construct the power plants. The person is a Corpse Ghost, a Level 18 Mechanist. You’ll host him when he arrives," Wu Heng explained.

"Understood."

"Let’s leave it at that for now. I will start arranging for someone to head over as soon as possible."

"Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Wu Heng left the room.

Downstairs, dinner preparations had already begun.

"Robey, go fetch ’Costas’ for me," Wu Heng instructed.

"Yes!" Robey responded and quickly ran out.

Not too long after, when he returned, he was followed by the Corpse Ghost ’Costas’ wearing a cloak.

Before, Wu Heng had sent him to Netalee City to help the Fifth Princess establish a power plant. Upon returning, he was optimizing some of the machinery that Wu Heng had provided in his own laboratory.

There were indeed some achievements.

The power plants had been simplified, with many complex steps reduced and replaced with Magic Buildings.

This significantly reduced the mechanical parts and the area occupied, but also increased the need for Magic Buildings.

"Master!" Costas gave a respectful salute.

Wu Heng said, "Take a seat."

Costas sat down to one side.

Wu Heng explained the situation in Lundham City in detail to him.

Mainly, there were several cities to the north in the Yeko Kingdom where he was needed to construct power plants.

"I will follow Master’s arrangements," Costas responded without hesitation.

"What personnel do you need to take with you?"

"How many cities in total?" Costas asked back.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, "There are quite a few, but they need to be constructed one by one; there’s no need to hurry and build them all at once."

Costas pondered silently for a while, "I will bring 10 Mechanists. The rest can be assisted with local manpower."

"Good, you arrange the necessary personnel yourself. I will provide transport. You have a total of seven days. Prepare to depart shortly," Wu Heng said.

"I’ll go prepare now," Costas immediately stood up.

"Alright!"

Costas left.

About half an hour later, Costas returned with 10 Skeleton Mechanists.

"Master, I’m ready," Costas stated directly.

Wu Heng nodded and looked at his side, "Potlid!"

A towering Skeleton, nearly two meters tall, wearing heavy armor and wielding a Two-Handed Sword, walked out.
