Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1038, war begins

When Wu Heng's figure appeared on the platform, the noise in the entire square rose to a new level.

"Mom! The idol is alive."

"Oh my god, it's exactly the same as what was recorded in the newspaper, black hair."

"The Queen has invited the hero here..."

People never expected that this year's Week of Courage would invite the most famous hero.

Moreover, he is the deity worshipped by Lingqi Religion.

Living gods...

……

The viewing area for the rich and powerful.

The conversations and clinking of glasses stopped abruptly, and everyone was looking at the screen.

"He actually came..." The old man clenched the snake-head cane in his hand.

The person next to him continued, "Brittany really takes this event very seriously. She even brought Wu Heng here."

"I have to say, Brittany is the only king who can invite heroes to participate."

"Oh! Why are you discussing so much about the royal family's affairs?" The beautiful lady sitting next to him rolled her eyes at the people who were talking about the kingdom's affairs all the time, and kept her eyes on the screen. "Don't you find that our hero... is more charming than the church's stained glass windows? Brittany is such a good eater."

……

Compared with the reactions in other parts of the city, the East Parade Ground was also caught in a commotion.

Brittany was still sitting on the throne, while many officials stood up and looked at the building opposite with horror.

In their minds, they still remember the scene where Wu Heng rushed into the palace and pulled the eldest prince off the throne.

Moreover, after Brittany ascended the throne, she also cleaned out a group of the eldest prince's old ministers.

This time, he came again.

I just hope that I am just here to participate in the Week of Courage and nothing special will happen.

The children who were waiting to start the training in the training ground all looked up, their eyes looking through the sunlight at the figure on the podium.

They had all heard of Wu Heng's name.

The youngest human leader, the god of Lingqi religion, solved the pirates in the Emerald Sea, and released many items such as pens, bicycles, watches, etc.

There was curiosity and passion in each look.

In architecture.

Wu Heng's long robe fluttered in the wind.

With a gentle smile on his face, his perception spread silently like a spider web, covering the entire square.

The ghosts have been arranged to roam everywhere, watching for any possible murderous intentions.

Last night, I used the tortoise shell to do divination again.

The result is still the same, there will definitely be enemies appearing today.

In this world, wars are fought without precision missile strikes or large-scale weapons, and the danger is often more direct and requires the enemy to come.

If the tortoise shell was a correct omen, the enemy must already be in the city and watching him through television.

After a brief noise.

The danger did not appear.

"Today's sword!" Wu Heng spoke slowly, his voice transmitted through the device, "Not stained with hatred, but only tempering courage!"

After a brief silence, he spoke again, "I commend you in the name of a hero of the Lingqi Church. If you perform well this time and reach level 18 before the age of 35, the Lingqi Church will support you... to ascend to the position of a hero."

Support heroes.

Among ordinary people, support these children to become heroes.

In an instant, the entire city of Chelu seemed to have lost all sound.

But soon after, there was an uproar in the East Parade Ground and the whole city was in an uproar.

It was as if... the whole city had exploded.

……

As soon as Wu Heng finished speaking, the entire city of Chelu seemed to be on fire.

Screams, discussions, and shouts of disbelief exploded like a tsunami, sweeping from Chelu City to the East Parade Grounds.

"Support...heroes." An official accidentally knocked over a wine glass. "The kingdom will have its own hero!"

After this was said, the other officials also started a heated discussion.

"If it's Leader Wu Heng, it shouldn't be difficult to train a hero."

"We don't really need a hero. As long as today's news gets out, the kingdom's status will be enhanced."

"Her Majesty the Queen is truly amazing. She is pulling the kingdom forward with every step."

Even the Association's genius support program has never dared to boast that it can cultivate heroes, and Wu Heng's promise is tantamount to saying that becoming a hero is not difficult.

Moreover, he was the only one who believed that he could succeed.

Amid the boiling noise, Wu Heng gently raised his hand.

He said to the camera: "The Week of Courage... has officially begun."

……

On the high platform in the east parade ground, the examiners blew the bronze whistles.

The children who had been lined up were blindfolded and stepped onto the three-meter-high wooden bridge one by one. The wooden board, which was only as wide as a palm, stretched across the air, while the sandbags hanging on both sides swept across like the pendulums of giant beasts.

boom!

The first child took just two steps before he was hit hard by the sandbag and fell heavily onto the cushion below.

He got up in a panic, but gritted his teeth and lined up at the end of the line again.

Three chances.

If you fall down, you will climb up again.

Even so, the speed of elimination is still beyond imagination.

In this seemingly simple test, a large number of children were eliminated and sent out of the examination room.

……

Spectator seats.

Wu Heng was lazily leaning on a soft chair at the back of the hall, his fingers rapidly tapping on his cell phone.

On the terrace, sitting on the throne facing the training ground, the identical Wu Heng still stood tall, gazing at the trial field with a dignified gaze.

This is a mirror image double created by [Mirror Image Technique].

The stand-in occasionally tapped the armrest, and even the swaying of the folds of his robe was just like the real person.

As long as you don't observe it closely, the effect in the camera is enough to make it look real.

"No danger found. Guards have sealed off all sides." Brittany's message lit up on the screen.

Wu Heng's fingers tapped rapidly.

"The enemy must be heroes. The guards won't be able to find them. If something happens later, follow the plan and leave the rest to me."

As soon as the message was sent, Brittany's reply followed, "Will they not come?"

Wu Heng replied,

"It's hard to say! If the other party is prepared, they won't give up easily."

Brittany's message came back quickly, "Okay, now the emotions of the city residents have been mobilized to the current level. If it is really the Holy See that made the move, they will completely lose the trust of the kingdom residents."

Wu Heng also understood what Brittany meant.

The kingdom holds a Week of Courage, and Wu Heng promises to give children the chance to become heroes.

If people from the Vatican reveal their identities and try to cause trouble, Brittany only needs to do some exaggerated publicity to make people think that the Vatican wants to sabotage the event.

The Holy See will also face greater resistance within the kingdom.

But the premise of all this is that Wu Heng must win.

If he died in battle, Brittany would die too, and the regime would collapse overnight.

By then, the Holy See will still be the orthodox religion of the kingdom, the Lingqi Church will be designated as a cult, and Wu Heng's name will only become a short-lived ghost occasionally mentioned in the tavern.

As the old saying goes, history is written by the victors.

Wu Heng tapped the phone with his fingertips and had just finished typing a sentence when suddenly... [Hate Sense] pierced into his spinal cord like a steel needle.

He raised his head suddenly and his pupils shrank suddenly.

Xiaoxiao flew over quickly from a distance, shouting, "Uncle, be careful..."

The magic circle under Wu Heng's feet flashed and his figure disappeared in an instant.

Boom~!

At the horizon, a blazing white meteor tore through the clouds, its might piercing through the sky!

The mirror image of 'Wu Heng' on the throne was instantly hit head-on by the light, and the arrow pierced through the phantom, and the remaining force continued to penetrate the metal chair back and the stone pillars of the hall behind it like a hot knife cutting butter.

The entire metal throne melted instantly under the high temperature, turning into red molten iron, hissing with white smoke.

"As expected!" Wu Heng appeared in an abandoned stone building ten meters outside the parade ground, looking into the distance with cold eyes.

Sky! Three golden streams of light came rushing in like meteorites, stirring up visible air waves wherever they passed.

Wu Heng had seen the movement methods commonly used by the heroes of the Holy See several times.

Boom~!

A huge golden bell shadow fell from the sky, covering the entire building.

The stone building collapsed and the ground cracked.

The surrounding grass, trees, soil and rocks were turned into powder by the shock wave, and the shock wave lifted the dust high into the sky, as if it were a man-made sandstorm.

……

In the school grounds.

Boom~!

The roar of the falling golden bell caused the building to shake wildly. Brittany's pupils suddenly contracted and she looked at the smoke and dust rising in the distance in horror.

It really came.

What Wu Heng guessed before was all true, the other party will definitely take action today.

Below, the ministers were in chaos.

They didn't know how a fight suddenly started happening, but it was clearly related to the heroes.

A battle between heroes.

This is not something ordinary people like them can deal with.

"Everyone keep quiet!" Brittany shouted coldly, slamming her scepter heavily to the ground.

The ministers froze in their places, trying to remain silent.

"Your Majesty, I am here to escort you away."

"Your Majesty, this way, the carriage is ready."

The chief wizard, the military commander, and several high-ranking ministers of the kingdom quickly surrounded them.

It's a rare display of concern for Brittany's life.

Brittany glanced at a few people and gave a solemn order, "Evacuate the contestants, notify the entire city to impose martial law, and kill those who take advantage of the chaos to loot on the spot."

"Yes!" Several guards left quickly.

Brittany looked into the distance again, and quickly evacuated under the protection of the skeleton servants.

……

And on Wu Heng's side.

Bang~!

Before the ripples of the giant bell dissipated, a bronze spear came through the air like a meteor, and the tip of the spear collided with the bell.

Click!

The huge golden bell exploded like fragile glass, and the fragments turned into golden light and disappeared before they hit the ground.

At this moment, three figures descended in a triangle formation, took off their black robes, revealing their faces.

Even though Wu Heng had never seen the three newly promoted heroes of the Holy See, he knew that they were these three people.

One was an old man with empty hands, one was holding a scepter, and the last one was holding the Holy Sword of the Church.

This holy sword also left an impression. The previous religious leader, Sayidu, used this sword. It seems that he is the new religious leader - Draco.

They looked at each other, there was no nonsense and no opening remarks.

The religious leader's holy sword took the lead in attacking, and the golden sword energy tore through the ground like a torrent, causing the stone slabs to evaporate and the air to burn wherever it passed!

Wu Heng's figure disappeared in the blink of an eye, and just as he reappeared, the sky full of golden lightsabers behind him turned into streams of light and shot towards him.

With a pointed spear, the water vapor in the sky instantly condensed into water arrows, colliding with the golden sword tide!

Rumble~!

The magical energies collided, and the shock wave of the explosion lifted the ground high into the air, amidst the flying rubble.

In the smoke and dust, countless blood-red flying knives attacked like a swarm of bees!

Following the flying knife came the vampire skeleton 'Count Pizza', flapping its flesh wings and flying quickly, directly killing the oldest of the three.

At the same time, a sword river formed by two gray sword beams crossed the battlefield and shot towards another person.

Cross the battlefield like a comet!

Corn Sword Masters No. 1 and No. 2 also ran over closely.

Something is wrong!

The pupils of the three Vatican heroes contracted at the same time.

The intelligence only mentioned skeletons that could fly and use brute force to butt, but there was no mention of undead that could perform heroic-level skills.

Gray sword energy, bloody flying knife.

These were not ordinary undead spirits at all, and they even made them feel their lives were threatened.

Wu Heng really did conduct necromancy experiments, and those hesitant guys in the association...

Seeing three skeletons coming towards him.

A hero clenched his hands suddenly.

The golden shadow of the choir emerged in the clouds, and the holy Buddhist sounds washed down like a tide.

The skeletons' bones crackled in the holy light, and their movements slowed down visibly, as if they were being dragged by invisible chains.

It’s this trick again…

Wu Heng's bronze spear separated from the religious leader as soon as it touched him, and quickly gathered the power of the undead.

He suddenly pointed to the sky!

Boom~!

The dark shadow of an ancient bell tower tore through the sky, and the decayed bronze bell swayed on its own, creating layers of black ripples.

The soul fire in the eye sockets of the affected skeletons suddenly surged, and their bones made a teeth-grinding "crackling" sound, and they actually withstood the suppression of the choir!

【Death knell】.

This is the first-level merit provided by the association, and it is being used for the first time.

The sky was split in two at this moment.

On one side, there is a choir shining with golden light, and on the other side, there is a black bell vibrating with the wailing of evil spirits.

With great visual impact.

Count Pizza spread his wings again and stopped using the bloody flying knife. His body turned into a blood mist and disappeared. The next second he appeared directly behind the old hero.

The skeleton's mouth opened, and its sharp fangs bit into the opponent's neck.

The old man was startled and his body turned into a stream of light to avoid the attack.

"Filthy thing." The old man cursed and suddenly threw out a shackle engraved with holy patterns.

Click!

The shackles precisely grasped Count Pizza's neck and wrist bones, and slammed him into the ground.

No matter how the skeleton struggles, the golden light on the shackles is like a mountain pressing down on its head. Every resistance will only lead to stronger suppression!

The body was smashed deeper and deeper, until the entire head was buried in the ground.

"I'll kill him, you hold these two skeletons." the old man said loudly.

The other person nodded, and two golden knights appeared in front of him, together blocking the two skeletons with gray sword energy.

Just as the old man took a step forward, a ghost suddenly appeared in front of him, pointed a finger at his forehead, and the illusion disappeared in a flash.

As soon as I regained consciousness, a strong sense of drowsiness attacked my mind again.

Then the ghost began to possess the body, and the body kept having a wrestling sensation.

Ghosts keep appearing and disappearing, and when they become invisible, it is completely impossible to capture any trace of them.

damn it!

Why are there still so many ghosts?

……

Clang!

In midair, the bronze spear collided with the holy sword, and the shock wave caused by the explosion lifted up the entire ground within a radius of 100 meters. Every time Wu Heng's spear blade chopped, the light of the sword body dissipated a little, as if stripping away the power of the artifact.

The religious leader who was good at close combat had already widened his eyes at this time, looking in disbelief at Wu Heng who had spread his vampire wings and was beating him.

A necromancer actually possesses such great power?

A force stronger than his.

"What are you two doing? Can't you even handle a skeleton?" the religious leader roared loudly!

Swish swish~!

Water arrows pierced his thighs, and Wu Heng kicked him away.

At the same time, Flash Wings followed closely and said in a cold voice, "Have you ever thought that even three of you can't beat me?"
