Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse

The dwarf leader with the fiery red beard retorted with a serious tone, "Are you implying that I'm protecting a necromancer?"

The religious leader stared directly at the other party, not believing that the necromancer was entirely without fault.

But as the most hot-tempered and direct 'dwarf leader,' he would never cover up for anyone.

Moreover, the two sides had no previous interaction.

He said in a deep voice, "Was a careful inspection conducted?"

This caused the dwarf leader to raise his eyebrows, feeling that his ability to handle affairs was being questioned, and he said in a deep voice, "Do you want to fight? The arena or any place, take your pick!"

"I'm discussing serious matters with you. Was a careful inspection conducted?" the religious leader continued to ask.

"If you don't trust us, you can go to Gold Silver Island to investigate yourself."

"You…"

In the past, he would have really gone to Gold Silver Island.

But since the other party became a hero and the conflict between the two sides has intensified to its current state, he really doesn't dare to lead a team to investigate.

That kid always does things differently from normal people.

"Enough!" The Sword of Justice 'Hadalaei' slammed his hand forcefully on the table, silencing the two arguing leaders.

There were a total of five governing leaders, and now there were only three here, yet they could still argue like this.

The two arguing leaders stopped talking, and Hadalaei continued, "Talk about the details of the investigation."

He had already read the report sent by the investigators. According to the records, there were indeed no problems with Gold Silver Island.

But he still wanted to hear the leading leader's explanation.

The dwarf leader slowly picked up his tea, took a sip, and then said unhurriedly, "After we landed on the island, we directly inspected the important areas mentioned in the intelligence. Several sites were factories on the island, and the detected undead creatures were all skeletons responsible for production in the factories."

"In the following days, we divided into several teams and conducted a detailed search of the island, finding no suspicious locations."

Hunters excel at discovering and exploring.

Finding hidden locations is also their specialty among the several departments.

Even if some places were concealed or moved in advance to cope with the inspection, the hunters could still find corresponding clues.

Such a meticulous investigation, without uncovering anything, was enough to prove that there was no place on Gold Silver Island that they were looking for.

The dwarf leader paused slightly, then continued, "When we left, we also searched the surrounding small islands, and found nothing, but we did find some mines and treasure chests left by pirates."

The religious leader narrowed his eyes and raised the question again, "How do you explain so many skeletons?"

The dwarf leader replied, "We used artifacts to question them. According to their account, they were corpses purchased from the Serpent Sigil Consortium."

"Buying so many?"

"With the financial resources of Gold Silver Island, I don't find it strange," the dwarf leader said.

For an association flag-bearer to purchase corpses from the Serpent Sigil Consortium is indeed not a glorious thing.

If it were when he was still an ordinary professional, even at level 18 or 19, the association could use this as a reason to issue some warnings or punishments.

But now that he is a hero, things that were unreasonable in the past are done without consequence.

The Sword of Justice took over the conversation and said, "Have you met Lilith?"

The Sword of Justice looked at the two of them and asked, "Do you have anything else to say about this matter?"

The religious leader said, "I have a question."

The other two looked at him.

The religious leader continued, "The improvement of magic requires constant experimentation and learning. The necromantic faction is the rarest among mages, and there are even fewer people who have achieved success. His rapid advancement, even becoming a hero without obstacles, isn't that worthy of suspicion?"

The Sword of Justice nodded slowly, "His growth rate is indeed surprising. Do you have any clues on your side?"

The religious leader's expression became even more serious, and he said word by word, "I have long suspected that he is either reincarnated or has had his body stolen."

"Lilith has said that it can be confirmed that he is not in either of those categories," the Sword of Justice said directly.

There's no problem with that either?

The religious leader narrowed his eyes again, wanting to say something.

The Sword of Justice spoke first, "The association's investigation is based on evidence and records. We can make reasonable guesses, but we cannot make arbitrary conclusions based solely on guesses."

The religious leader's words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.

Now, any questions he raises are based on speculation about the other party's unusual behavior.

There is no substantial evidence.

"The matter has been investigated clearly, so let's make a decision according to what we discussed before. Because of this kid, the leaders' meeting has been held again and again. You may not be annoyed, but I am," the dwarf leader continued.

The Sword of Justice looked at the religious leader again and said directly, "Effective immediately, revoke any investigations into Gold Silver Island and Wu Heng. At the same time, publicly announce the leader's identity to the association to increase the association's external influence."

Adding a new hero has a significant impact, both externally and within the association.

"I have no objection!" the dwarf leader stated.

The religious leader remained silent.

With no one answering, the matter was settled.

The Sword of Justice continued to announce the second matter, saying, "Effective immediately, revoke Wu Heng's Gold Silver Island flag-bearer status and appoint him as an external leader, enjoying all the benefits of an association leader except for executive power."

"No objection!" the dwarf replied.

The religious leader still did not speak, his face showing suppressed anger.

The Sword of Justice nodded slightly, "Then it's settled. First, the headquarters will announce it, then the news will be released to the associations in various outposts, and notices will be posted one after another."

"Good!" the dwarf leader nodded.

With the matter concluded, the dwarf leader and the religious leader stood up and left the conference room directly.

The Sword of Justice sat in the chair and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

This matter finally has a result.

The Holy See is an important part of the association, and there is a governing leader. Wu Heng's side is also quite special, with rapid growth, many ideas, and strong abilities.

If they really forced him to the Serpent Sigil Consortium or the Undying Emperor, it would also be a loss to the association.

The current result is considered good.

As for the conflict between Wu Heng and the Holy See, let's mediate it!

After thinking for a while, he also walked out of the conference room.

… …

The religious hero 'Saiyid' returned from outside to the leader's study, his face gloomy as he sat in the chair.

They didn't find anything on Gold Silver Island.

Even if he didn't believe that a necromancer would be so clean, the facts were in front of him, and the association's rules were based on records and evidence.

Even if he was the leader, it wouldn't be good to say anything more about this matter.

And announcing that Gold Silver Island had no experimental base would indirectly prove that the Holy See's judgment was wrong.

The Pope and the two ships of Holy See personnel died in vain on Gold Silver Island.

How could this be!

Knock knock knock ~!

Just as he was filled with anger, a knock sounded on the door.

"Enter!"

The divine official assistant opened the door and walked in, "Leader!"

"What is it?"

The assistant stepped forward lightly, carefully pushing the letter in his hand forward, "Leader, a letter sent from Gold Silver Island."

Saiyid's eyes widened. He actually dared to write to himself at this time.

"Bring it over! You can leave first."

The assistant handed the letter forward, then turned and left.

Saiyid took the letter, feeling that the envelope was bulging and much thicker than a normal letter.

What did he write?

It's so thick!

Did he write a lot of words to show off that the investigation team didn't find anything?

If that was all, Saiyid would only feel that the other party was childish and ridiculous.

He sneered in his heart, tore open the envelope, and poured the letter into his hand.

A letter and a map folded several times.

A map?

He unfolded it directly, and Saiyid frowned, staring blankly at the exceptionally clear map in his hand.

This was a map of the Emerald Sea area. The other parts were blurred, but the location of each church in the city was exceptionally clear.

How was this kind of map drawn?

It was like an oil painting, and so clear and accurate.

Did he want to threaten himself again to clean up the churches in various places?

The Holy See was indeed worried about this matter.

After all, the foundations of the two sides were different. The other party only had Gold Silver Island, but the Holy See's churches in various places had been built for hundreds of years to reach today's scale.

But the current situation was different.

The association had recognized his status as a hero. If he really used the previous conflicts to destroy churches and kill clergy, then it would completely conform to the association's definition of a cult.

At that time, the association's hero, plus the Holy See's hero, would jointly kill the other party.

Moreover, he didn't believe that Wu Heng dared to do this.

That kid was crazy, but not stupid. He had done so much just to wait for the association to recognize his identity.

He was simply sending the map over to mock himself.

He only felt that the other party was still so childish, using this kind of venting emotion, but completely useless little trick.

He continued to unfold the letter.

When he opened it, a piece of paper clipped in the letter fell out and landed on the table.

Seydou's eyes narrowed, and he widened his eyes, looking at the piece of paper on the table.

On the palm-sized piece of paper was a colored image of his appearance and naked body.

The body twisted and turned, and the hands made a heart shape in front of the chest.

Seydou's eyes widened, and a sense of shame and annoyance surged into his heart.

What is this?

How could there be such a thing.

His hands trembled slightly as he looked at the letter, which contained very little content.

"I know the location of every one of your churches. If you continue to threaten the merchants who cooperate with Treasure Island, I will post these photos all over the churches and let all the believers see your inner side. I mean what I say, and you can continue to try if you don't believe me."

This ~!

Seydou stared at the letter, bloodshot eyes appearing.

A sense of shame, anger, and humiliation filled his mind.

He couldn't imagine what impact these pictures would have on him if they were released.

Damn it!

That kid definitely dares to do it.

After hesitating for a long time, he said angrily, "You dare!"

Dong dong dong ~!

The anger in the meeting room, coupled with the letter at this time, made him feel his blood rushing to his head, and he lost his footing, staggering back into his chair.

The violent friction of the chair made the assistant push open the door directly, "Leader ~!"

"Get out!" Seydou said in a deep voice.

The assistant glanced at him and retreated from the room again.

At this moment, he had completely lost the leader's majesty and composure.

……

At headquarters, in a mansion filled with various puppets.

A dwarf wearing a purple-blue Chinese dress and a monocle looked at the letter in his hand.

"Treasure Island Flag Bearer?" The dwarf sneered, tore the letter to pieces, and threw it on the ground, "Anyone wants to order from me."

Immediately, a strangely shaped puppet stepped forward to collect the shredded paper.

"Go get my clothes, I'm going to visit the esteemed Leader Lilith." The dwarf stood up from the slightly short chair and beckoned to the side.

Immediately, a puppet came over to help him put on his dress.

He looked in the silver mirror, confirmed his attire, and walked out of the room directly, heading to his destination.

Dong dong dong ~!

Knocking on the heavy door, after it was opened, the dwarf said respectfully: "Mortimer has come to visit Leader Lilith, please inform her."

"The leader is not here. After the leader returns, I will convey the message that you came." The servant who opened the door was also respectful.

Not here?

"Oh, thank you, I will come back to visit another day." The dwarf said carefully, still somewhat disappointed.

The door closed again, and the other party turned and walked out.

"Is that Wu Heng from Treasure Island? Did he become a hero?"

"The announcement is out, so it must be true."

"Isn't he a businessman? Selling pens and pills."

"Who knows, but he is definitely a hero."

The dwarf stepped on the short stool, and then took back one foot that had stepped onto the car.

Treasure Island?

The letter he just received seemed to be written by Treasure Island.

After thinking for a while, he still got off the carriage and went to the association hall.

As soon as he entered, he saw countless people crowded in front of the bulletin board. The dwarf took advantage of his height disadvantage and squeezed to the front, looking at the announcement.

Treasure Island's Wu Heng has become the association's field leader.

Enjoy all the benefits of a leader.

Wu Heng? Treasure Island?

The dwarf widened his eyes and turned to rush back to his residence.

……

Treasure Island.

Wu Heng retracted the two skeleton servants into [Mansion Technique], put on his hood, and appeared at the port.

After the battle with the Pope, the port was rebuilt, and some facilities were also improved a lot.

An announcement has been posted outside the room where the ship management office is located.

The content is that a ghost ship has appeared in the Emerald Sea, and it has been removed by Wu Heng, the Flag Bearer of the Emerald Sea, leading the team.

The second is to collect relevant information about tomb robbers.

"The ghost ship is really real!"

"When that ship docked at the time, a bunch of crazy people came down, I saw it with my own eyes."

"At the critical moment, the island owner is still amazing!"

"He is a necromancer, and the ghost ship just fits the professional characteristics."

"That makes sense!"

The people around who were also watching the announcement gathered together to discuss.

Treasure Island was not affected by the fog and ghost ship. At most, some rumors from all aspects were spread.

The more it spread, the scarier it became, but there was no substantial loss.

Moreover, Treasure Island has been sanctioned by the Holy See recently, and there are not many ships coming and going.

Wu Heng stood in the crowd and eavesdropped for a while, and felt that there was nothing to do, so he took a carriage and returned to the island owner's mansion.

Enter the gate.

The maids rushed out happily.

"Master, you are back?" Minnie asked.

"Yeah." Wu Heng hugged the four maids who rushed over.

Catwoman Robe said: "Master, has the ghost ship been resolved? Is there really a ghost ship?"

It seems that Hilla Gray has not told them about the ghost ship.

"I'll tell you when we get inside!" Wu Heng walked towards the house.

Shanella also walked out from inside, smiling and saying, "You're back?"

"Yeah, did you miss me?" Wu Heng asked with a smile.

"Miss you my ass."

"Missing my head is fine too, as long as you missed me."

"Childish!" Shanella gave him an angry look, seeing her man come back, her face was full of joy.

Entering the living room, Minnie helped him take off his clothes.

The women in the family were sitting in the living room, preparing fruit wine and snacks, looking at him expectantly.

"What's wrong?" Wu Heng asked.

"Didn't the master say to tell us about the ghost ship!" Robe said.

Wu Heng sat down on the side and said, "The ghost ship is a tomb, a tomb built on a ship."

"Tomb?" Everyone became more interested.

Then, Wu Heng told the story of exploring the ghost ship to everyone.

The women in the family were surprised that someone built a tomb on a ship, and they also hated the tomb robbers for causing such a big incident, because they killed many people.

After the story was finished, Wu Heng said: "You guys chat, I'll clean up a bit, and then go visit Leader Lilith."

Everyone nodded, and Wu Heng walked upstairs.

After a simple cleanup, he took Xiao Xiao downstairs, and then released [Teleportation] to Lilith's mansion.

……

Wu Heng and Xiao Xiao sat in the living room and waited for a while.

Lilith, wearing a dark blue dress, walked slowly down from upstairs.

"Sister Lilith!" Xiao Xiao waved and greeted.

Lilith smiled, "When did you come back?"

"I just came back, Uncle asked me to come over." Xiao Xiao said directly.

Wu Heng nudged her with his arm, and then said with a smile, "Leader, are you resting upstairs?"

"Yeah." Lilith sat down opposite, and the butler brought tea and pastries.

Lilith continued to ask, "So, what's the matter that made you, a hero, make a special trip?"

Her tone was a bit questioning.

Telling him not to run around.

He was not on the island before the investigation team came, and he left again as soon as the investigation left.

After a long time, it's just a good attitude, not doing what he promised.

Wu Heng said: "The situation is really serious, and there are thousands of people affected. I am the Flag Bearer, so I naturally have to go over and deal with it."

Lilith raised an eyebrow, not expecting it to be so serious.

She is also in charge of collecting intelligence, and asked: "What's the matter?"

"Ghost ship! The island has been rumored about this matter for some time."

"Tell me about this!"

Wu Heng told the story of the ghost ship again, and Lilith said: "I did receive intelligence about the ghost ship, but I didn't expect it to be so serious. I will arrange the wanted order for the tomb robbers, so don't worry."

"If you arrange it, they definitely won't be able to escape." Wu Heng said politely, and then asked, "Leader, is there any news from the investigation team?"

Lilith glanced at him, "I thought you didn't care about this matter!"

"How could I not care, this is my innocence!"

"Yes, yes." Xiao Xiao nodded.

Lilith picked up the tea and took a sip, "It's out, wait for your announcement, you will be a leader in the future."

Wu Heng reacted, and was overjoyed, "Thank you, Leader."

……

Coming back from Lilith's side.

Wu Heng called the Hilla Gray sisters and set a date to go over for dinner tomorrow.

Today, he will stay in the island owner's mansion and sort out some things.

Wu Heng did not tell the others about the leader's news he learned from Lilith. It is not too late to say it after the announcement is made.

After dinner.

Wu Heng returned to the study. Xiao Xiao was with Lilith, and Granda and Benny were busy with their own things.

Sitting at the desk, he took out the iron golem armor that the local deacon gave him when he left.

The armor has been cleaned, but it is still covered with thick verdigris rust.

But the lines on it, the pattern in the center of the armor is like a monster, with big eyes, a huge mouth, and fangs.

On both sides are swirling patterns with clouds and lightning characteristics.

It looks like a pattern that appears in mythological stories.

"Are these going to be handed over to the Hongwen Society?" Granda glanced over here.

"Yeah, let the Hongwen Society see which country's armor style it is. I always feel a little familiar."
