The return journey took nine days, and they stayed in Black Stone Town for another day.

All in all, Wu Heng had given ‘Wang Haibing’ ten days. If he couldn’t produce the blueprints by then, Wu Heng would have to wonder if he had been lying before.

Wu Heng looked over the blueprint, which detailed the dimensions and specifications of the boiler.

“So if we make it according to the blueprint, we can replace the existing boiler, right?”

“Yes, the specifications need to be precise. Both oversized and undersized will have difficulty matching the original equipment,” Wang Haibing said.

Wu Heng put away the blueprint, “Alright, I understand. You’ve done well with this.”

“It’s what I should do; the base saved us,” Wang Haibing said, smoothing his bangs.

“Go do what you need to, I’ll find you when you’re needed.”

“Okay, I’ll get to it then,” Wang Haibing nodded and turned to leave.

Qi Hancai still stood to one side, curiously asking, “If we can really restore power, our base might be the first in the province to do so.”

“From the current look of things, there shouldn’t be a problem.”

Qi Hancai nodded, not saying much more.

If the base could restore power, not only would various high-powered production chains be resumed, but it would also be a good thing for the survivors in the base.

Life would be more convenient.

Having discussed the power plant, Wu Heng continued, “Prepare the vehicle convoy, we’re going to clear out the zombies.”

“Okay, I’ll start preparing now.” Qi Hancai pressed the intercom on his chest and began organizing the convoy.

Wu Heng continued to address ‘Bone Demon Number One’, the transformed ‘Zombie King’, “Mobilize 30,000 spear skeletons, 20,000 ax-wielding skeletons, 20,000 longbow skeletons, and the five-headed skeleton dragons. Gather 20 second-tier mutated skeletons at the factory entrance.”

As the order was given.

The skeletons stationed in various parts of the factory began to move as if boiling, marching in step toward the central road, converging, exiting the main gate of the factory, and standing at the ready.

The Bone Demon was a fourth-tier mutated zombie killed by Wu Heng, possessing greater ability to relay information.

The way Big Head Skeleton was mobilized was to move a few hundred at a time, frequently issuing orders, which reflected the distinctiveness with which the various skeletons carried out commands.

However, the Bone Demon was more straightforward; he could mobilize tens of thousands of troops at once and do so simultaneously.

It was more convenient for mobilization.

After the skeleton army was ready, the vehicle convoy also drove out.

Qi Hancai took the driver’s seat, and Wu Heng got into the co-pilot’s seat.

Escorted by the large army, they headed toward the Central District.

…

In a city block.

Bodies mangled and limbs missing, the horde converged from all directions toward the center, like a black torrent surging forward.

It seemed endless.

Whish!

The sound of objects slicing through the air above, and then a group of skeletons with wingspans of several meters swept overhead, the whizzing noise breaking the silence.

Iron bombs rained down densely from the sky like a downpour.

Amidst the trembling ground and clouds of dust.

The torrent of zombies was instantly cleared, leaving behind nothing but limbs and broken bodies.

But the explosions attracted even more of the horde, continuing to converge from all directions, reforming into a torrent, and surging forward again.

Wu Heng, watching the distance of the zombies, issued an order, “Let the archers shoot their arrows.”

Whoosh~!

The archers behind the spear array fired their arrows all at once.

The arrows rattled as they fell into the horde.

Torrents of zombies were turned into porcupines, falling over and tripping the ones behind them.

The skeleton dragons reloaded their magazines and took flight again, continuing to drop bombs.

Once more, thick smoke rose.

“Uncle, there are a lot of mutated zombies gathered in that building, one level three, the rest are level two and evolved zombies,” Xiao Xiao flew back, pointing toward a distant building.

Wu Heng glanced at the Orange Express Hotel.

Through the broken mirrors and shattered glass, one could vaguely see figures standing in the dark.

“The highest is a third-level zombie?”

“The highest is level three,” Xiao Xiao confirmed.

Wu Heng looked again at the direction of the hotel.

These mutated zombies were clearly observing the battlefield and would likely choose to flee eventually.

“Go and call ‘Glenda’ down,” Wu Heng said.

“Okay.” Xiao Xiao flew straight up.

Soon, Glenda joined Xiao Xiao, appearing visibly as they flew down together.

“What’s up?” Glenda asked.

Wu Heng said, “Xiao Xiao found some mutated zombies over there; take the Evil Sword and kill them so they don’t escape.”

Glenda glanced over, “What level?”

“Highest is a level three mutated zombie, equivalent to a level 15 professional.”

“Alright, give me the Evil Sword.”

Wu Heng took out the Evil Sword, advising, “Don’t draw the sword until you’ve left the skeleton troops.”

“I know; it’s not my first time using it.”

Glenda accepted the Evil Sword and darted quickly toward the hotel.

After distancing from the skeleton troops, the Evil Sword was drawn.

Sword lights flashed swiftly, and among the horde, heads fell one after another.

Like plowing a deep furrow through a dense rice paddy.

She charged straight into the hotel.

Wu Heng then refocused his attention on the battlefield.

After four rounds of bombardment, the speed of zombies converging on the road had begun to slow.

Most were now only mangled in limbs.

They continued to shuffle forward unsteadily.

“Advance!” Wu Heng ordered.

Clatter~!

The spear skeletons on standby rose, holding their spears, and began to advance.

The charging zombies were pierced by the spears.

Kill all the zombies.

…

Glenda returned, handing him the sheathed Evil Sword, “All are killed.”

“Mm.” Wu Heng took the Evil Sword and stored it away.

Glenda continued to fly up to stand guard.

Wu Heng then opened the experience panel to take a look.

[Level: 17 (221782/265000)]

This time, the experience increased by almost 90,000.

Just over 40,000 short of level 18.

No matter how you figure it, the next wave should ensure a level-up.

The thought of becoming a fifth-tier professional, among the top forces of various factions, stirred some excitement in his heart.

He glanced at the sky.

There was no way to continue leveling up today.

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

The night, despite having little effect on the skeletons, still harbored many dangers.

Having come this far, it would be beneficial to play it safe.

“I need to be more diligent, secure the furnace setup, then return to level up,” Wu Heng muttered to himself.

Soon, the battlefield was cleared.

The bodies of the mutated zombies and evolved zombies were piled up to the side.

The third-level mutant zombies from the hotel were giant zombies with black keratin emerging from their bodies.

Wu Heng had killed them before, but not as effortlessly as now.

He began the conversion process.

One skeleton after another rose from the broken flesh, and corpse cores were collected into the space ring.

Then, he continued along the road, releasing [Corpse Battlefield], with skeletons rising to join the ranks behind him.

The number of skeletons he had brought was already considerable, and now the street was densely packed with them, crowded from end to end.

Endless to sight.

After everything had ended, Wu Heng took out the walkie-talkie, “Qi Hancai, bring people over to see if there’s anything to scavenge, then let’s head back.”

“Roger that!”

The convoy drove up from behind.

The survivors scavenged the nearby shops along the way, first transporting the crucial supplies to the trucks.

The rest would be carefully scavenged later by others.

By the time the scavenging was near completion, the sky had also darkened.

Under the escort of a large army, the convoy began to return to the factory.

…

Through the boundary door, they returned to Gold and Silver Island.

Wu Heng first went to the Skeleton Alchemy Warlock’s room and delivered the newly acquired corpse cores.

The research on the Level Three Corpse Nucleus Potion seemed to have made significant progress.

Several high-level Alchemy Skeletons had begun the stage of concocting the elixir.

Completely different from the various tests in the past.

This gave Wu Heng hope for the corpse core potion as well.

He just hoped that he could obtain the potion before reaching level 18.

After standing by and watching for a while, Wu Heng walked out of the room and headed downstairs.

As soon as he reached the first floor, he saw Mini playing shuttlecock in the yard with two new maids.

Their giggles echoed throughout the courtyard.

Upon seeing Wu Heng come out,

The two maids immediately stopped laughing and saluted, saying, “Master.”

“No worries, carry on playing.”

Mini then ran over and said, “Master, Shanaela sent a message during the day, saying she was delayed because of clan matters.”

“Did you receive it or read it in the records?”

Mini answered, “It’s written in the Skeleton Investigator’s record book.”

“Alright, I’ll have a look.”

Wu Heng went back upstairs, directly into the radio room.

He looked at the Skeleton Investigator’s records next to Shanaela’s radio.

There was an additional line of text.

‘The clan’s affairs have delayed my contact with you. I’m doing well over here, don’t worry.’

It was the same as what Mini had said, Shanaela had sent a message.

There was no difference in content.

After some thought, Wu Heng still picked up the microphone, trying to get in touch, “Shanaela, can you hear me?”

It went quiet for three or four seconds.

Then, a familiar voice came from inside the radio, “Is this how you use it?”

“Yes, just hold it and speak, it’s very simple,” Wu Heng explained, then asked, “How are things on your end, why has it taken so long to send a message back?”

Ah~!

A gentle sigh was transmitted first, followed by Shanaela’s voice, “It’s nothing, don’t worry.”

With that response, Wu Heng felt there was more to it.

“Tell me about it, maybe I can help, or at least you can share your troubles.”

The other side fell silent for a while, then softly said, “The Elder Council has learned that the ‘Amber Pendant’ was used and discovered I have a man outside.”
