The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 138: 136, Scouring for Gold Bars_1



Chapter 138: Chapter 136, Scouring for Gold Bars_1

The skeleton troop, like a meat grinder on the battlefield, started to push forward.

The zombies in front were driven back, while the ones on the sides planning to outflank were blocked by even more Kitchen Knife Skeletons.

The slaughter and the fight resumed.

The two sides clashed together.

Wu Heng did not participate this time, he was issuing orders while paying attention to the direction of the rat swarm.

Although the rat swarm was repelled by the fire.

It was uncertain if they would madly rush forward again.

If the rat swarm attacked humans, or some animals, it would be understandable.

Bullying the group of skeletons was somewhat difficult to comprehend.

Had they gorged on meat and grain, were they now planning to gnaw on bones to replenish their calcium?

The Skeleton troops continued to advance, leaving behind large piles of zombie corpses along the way.

They finally reached the nearby business street.

The number of zombies started to reduce.

The entire skeleton group, as if stained by fresh blood, were smeared all over with sticky dirty blood and pieces of flesh.

“Kitchen Knife Skeletons, attack.”

The skeletons wielding kitchen knives charged directly.

All the remaining zombies were completely killed.

The battle was over.

The whole street became deserted.

There were only some pieces of shredded meat and severed limbs left, along with a mix of undistinguishable hair and mud covering the ground.

Stepping on it, it gave a sticky sensation.

Everywhere on both sides were clothing stores, with shattered floor-to-ceiling glasses, and the speakers out front had been smashed into pieces.

Wu Heng took Li Yahong to enter one of the stores, the inside was a total mess.

The walls and the floor were filled with fresh blood and overturned goods.

But you could still find quite a few clothes and shoes with several-digit price tags.

“You all protect her.” Wu Heng pointed to a few tall Beastman Skeletons.

The Beastman Skeletons wore iron armor and held battle axes, they stood neatly beside Li Yahong.

Wu Heng continued to say to Li Yahong: “Search every store, let the skeletons bring everything they can carry to the truck, we can use them in the future.”

“Oh, alright.” Li Yahong nodded, took the given big skeletons, and directly went upstairs to continue checking.

Soon you could see several skeletons carrying bags of unopened clothes walking down.

They walked to the side of the road and threw the clothes into the truck.

When Wu Heng saw Li Yahong starting to scavenge.

He did not linger, he directly left the store and went to the bank on the side of the road.

At this time in the world, gold and silver had no value.

But Wu Heng still needed it.

Money was required in the upcoming plans.

Entering the bank.

A few bank teller dressed zombies inside the counter were banging hard at the counter glass.

It seemed like the glass of the bank was indeed strong, no matter how fierce they were hitting from the outside, the zombies inside could not break free.

They just left dark-red and black bloodstains on the glass.

Wu Heng took out the bronze key, opened the separated metal door.

The moment the zombies rushed, the skeletons behind them knocked them down to the ground, the kitchen knife and the battle axe simultaneously fell down, chopping them into a pile of minced meat.

Wu Heng directly walked up, opened the drawers under the counter and started to check them one by one.

He found a few piles of banknotes which were of no use.

After finding nothing valuable, he got up and opened another metal door behind him.

Behind the door was a heavy safe.

The good stuff should be inside.

He continued to use the bronze key to open it, everything inside was revealed.

Apart from a large amount of banknotes, there were also the gold bars that Wu Heng was looking for.

5 bars weighing 30 grams each, and 2 bars weighing 50 grams each.

Only this much?

The quantity wasn’t as much as he thought.

He collected the gold bars and continued to wander around upstairs, found a few gold commemorative coins, and some tea and wine in the manager’s office.

All of it was stored in the Space Ring.

Upon leaving the bank, he glanced at the line of skeletons moving items like ants moving house.

Wu Heng led the skeletons to a few other banks in the vicinity.

They discovered over ten more gold bars. The majority were 30 grams, with only one being 100 grams.

It was less of a haul than anticipated.

Returning to the commercial street, they entered a jewelry shop.

There were no zombies left in the shop.

The counter was shattered, with broken glass and gold jewelry scattered on the floor.

The jewelry shop had far more to offer than the bank.

A wide variety of gold and jade jewelry was displayed before their eyes.

Wu Heng finally smiled, it seemed there were still gains to be made.

Bursting open the glass cases, they picked up the jewelry from the broken glass and stored them in the Space Ring.

In addition to the glittering gold jewelry, there were many luxury gift boxes under the counter, quite prestigious looking.

After packing everything away, they continued to scavenge the inside of the shop.

Still the same safe, inside contained five finished gold bars. There was no label indicating their weight, but they seemed close to 10 grams each.

He stored everything in the Space Ring and left the shop satisfied.

Relying on his previous memory, he walked to the next shop, only to find that it had changed into a milk tea shop.

God damn it, it’s gone, they’ve changed the sign.

Wu Heng strolled down the commercial street, but didn’t find a second jewelry shop.

Being just a district of a small city, it wasn’t very developed, and there was only one such shop on the whole street.

Still, the gains were decent.

Doing a rough estimate in his mind, he had over 700 grams of gold bars, which could be exchanged for quite a sum of money.

At the very least, it would be enough to get by in Lundham City for a short period of time.

Having finished collecting the gold.

Wu Heng walked directly to Li Yahong’s shop.

The shop displayed various brands of women’s underwear, some advertised by celebrities.

Seeing Wu Heng suddenly walk in, Li Yahong quickly explained, “I’m bringing back some, there are plenty of girls, they can use these.”

Wu Heng nodded, thinking it was true.

“Take all of them, it would be a waste to leave them here,” said Wu Heng.

But he didn’t quite understand.

Why were these undergarments embroidered, laced, and so fancy, when they were meant to be worn inside?

Could this be comfortable?

He couldn’t understand.

“Haven’t you been shopping with a girlfriend?” Li Yahong asked.

“Men don’t usually go into places like this.”

“That’s true,” Li Yahong replied, taking out a jacket from her backpack and handing it to him. “Try this on. I saw it just now and thought it would suit you.”

“Now?”

“Put it over your clothes, try it, it’s new and clean.”

Wu Heng stood in front of the mirror and let Li Yahong put the jacket around his shoulders.

Wearing armor, he looked somewhat puffy.

“You look much younger, like a college student,” Li Yahong said with a smile.

“You think? Good to know you have good taste.”

“Of course, I’ve always had good taste.”

“I believe you.”

While the two chatted, the skeletons continued to move their haul.

Until every shop on the street, as well as some nearby shops, were looted.

The pair then returned to the truck, Wu Heng gave Big Head an order, “Have the skeletons pick up the corpses, and follow the truck back.”

With a clatter~!

The skeletons hoisted the bodies onto their shoulders.

And the bulging woven bags they had scavenged were held in the hands of a few skeletons with basic souls.

On the way, they collected intact rat bodies into the woven bags.

Despite the huge fire that had covered a large area, they still managed to find several bags full of rats’ bodies.

The skeletons, carrying the bags on their shoulders, returned with the convoy.
