Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 670, Are You a New Maid?

The old man walked in behind the coffin.

He was holding a wooden cane in his hand, his body was hunched, and he walked with difficulty.

Wu Heng looked at the other person, guessing his identity and the purpose of following him in.

Although the consortium does all kinds of business, they will not bring in outsiders at will when it comes to commissions of corpses and bones.

As for Wu Heng, he came here from far away to purchase the corpse in order to avoid the news from leaking out.

This kind of thing cannot be made public, especially when a stranger is brought in.

Wu Heng needs a reasonable explanation.

Letili noticed Wu Heng's gaze and smiled before explaining softly, "Mr. Costas Alvarez is a level 17 mechanic in the Celtic Kingdom. He will be able to break through to level 18 in a few years. It just so happens that you need... talent in this area."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows and looked at the other person again.

My own orders have always written about corpses, but never about talents.

Moreover, talents are uncontrollable and are not as safe as skeletons.

The old man looked over here with cloudy eyes, trying to perform the etiquette of a noble. "Costas Alvarez, hello, Master Mage. Please forgive my presumptuous visit, but you can see that I don't have much time left. I can feel the limit of my body, maybe just a few days."

"Hello." Wu Heng nodded, and then asked, "What does this have to do with my order?"

The old man said directly: "Master Mage, I am willing to give away all my wealth, please help me survive."

Wu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and it was just as he had guessed.

He planned to let me keep him alive.

A level 17 machinist is even rarer than combat professionals of the same level. He must be someone with a certain amount of power, otherwise Letili would not have personally come forward to arrange a meeting between the two parties.

Wu Heng said calmly: "According to the restrictive laws of the association and various countries, forcibly extending life by special means is illegal, regardless of whether I have the ability to do so or not."

Forcing people to survive requires paying a corresponding price.

For example, the blood cup of the vampires requires killing people to obtain blood, and then drinking it for a period of time before becoming a blood-bleeder.

It can be said that if you want to survive, to some extent, more people need to die.

If this kind of thing is discovered to be carried out by an organization, it will be identified as a cult. If it is an individual, a wanted warrant will be put up.

The old man continued, "Master Mage, according to the Association's Act, the undead creatures transformed by the necromancer will also have a legal identity if there are reasonable reasons and supervision."

This one is based on the Necromancer's Subsidiary Act.

In other words, a necromancer with a legal identity and the ghosts and skeleton servants around him also have legal identities.

They will not be considered undead creatures.

The other party has done more in-depth research and has thought of this.

Wu Heng then asked, "Then what can I get? I don't lack money."

Wu Heng also knows several ways to prolong life.

For example, the ritual of transforming into a ghost or a corpse.

And the [Sacrificial Wooden Staff] that can take over other people's bodies.

But you can't just introduce someone to help him.

Otherwise, with so many living beings in the world, how could I help every one of them survive?

The old man said again: "My greatest value is myself. I am a level 17 artificer. I will be loyal to you and take on the corresponding work for you."

Letili also said, "Mr. Costas is the vice president of the Celtic Kingdom's Special Machine Research Institute. He has high skills and organizational skills. I recommended him to you because you needed such a talent."

associate dean?

Wu Heng does need high-level professionals, especially machinists and alchemists.

But there are some concerns.

Would it bring trouble to myself if I recruited living people?

Regardless of this matter, Treasure Island will still develop according to plan, and there may be some changes in this matter.

"With your status, is there no way to help you survive?"

The other party replied, "I am too old and there is no time to find other ways for me."

"Any enemies?"

"No, you don't need to worry about that."

Wu Heng then asked, "How do you plan to survive?"

The old man clenched the wooden stick in his hand and said, "I have prepared the materials for the ghoul. If you have any better suggestions, you can also tell me."

Wu Heng looked at him and thought for a while.

He nodded and agreed, "I can promise you, but you won't be so free in the future. You have to do things for me."

"As long as you continue to let me work as a mechanic, I don't have many hobbies in my life."

"Okay, I agree." Wu Heng said calmly.

The old man smiled and said, "I'll wait for you outside."

"Okay." Wu Heng nodded.

The old man bowed again and left the room.

……

There were only two people left in the room again.

Letili came over to flatter her and said, "You have been emphasizing that you want a high-level mechanic. I just happened to hear that he wants to live, so I brought him here for you to see."

Wu Heng understood what she meant.

It is difficult to meet a level 17 artificer. If Wu Heng does not agree, the other party may seek cooperation with other necromancers or some sects.

Maybe the body won’t be available either.

So, both sides did a favor and arranged this meeting today.

"Be thoughtful in what you do and don't bring us unnecessary trouble." Wu Heng still reminded.

Letili said coquettishly, "I know. Next time this happens, I'll kill him and send him to you."

"Please introduce the corpse in the coffin!" Wu Heng's eyes fell on the coffin beside him.

Letili said, "There are four bodies in total, two alchemists, level 15 and 10 respectively, and two blacksmiths, around level 10."

Alchemists are pretty good, but currently the biggest demand for blacksmiths is for making solid iron bullets for flying dragons.

And fixes to Skeleton Army weapons.

The number of skeleton troops is too large, and the number of people needed to repair them is not small.

So it is quite useful.

"Let's settle the account!" Wu Heng said.

Letili calculated the balance, and Wu Heng took out the corresponding gold coins.

At the same time, he took out the first volume of the Great Detective novel, placed it on the table, and pushed it to the other party, "I didn't say you wanted this novel last time. A friend of mine has been to Treasure Island, so I just happened to bring you a copy."

Letili picked it up and took a look.

When I opened the first page and saw the signature inside, my eyes instantly lit up and curved into crescents.

It's signed by the island owner.

Some things become more precious the less they are and the harder they are to get.

"Your friend is really talented, as he has the island owner's autograph." Letili looked at the other person and praised him.

Then, he leaned forward again and gently put his arm around the other person, "I heard that pens and watches are still for sale on the island. Your friend, please bring one of each next time. He admires the island owner very much."

"Don't be too greedy."

"No way, they give me money, I don't take it for free."

"There's a chance. I'm not sure if he can get it."

Letili smiled and said, "If you want to give it to me, there is no way you can't get it."

Wu Heng didn't say much. He stood up and put all the coffins into the space ring.

Then he said: "I'm going back first, you continue to help me collect the bones!"

"Okay, guest." Letili nodded.

Walk out of the room.

The old man just now walked out of another room, saluted and followed behind him, and walked out of the consortium building together.

Wu Heng called a carriage, left the city, and arrived at an uninhabited wasteland.

He casually opened the [Mansion Technique] and said, "This is the space I have created. You can live normally here. You go in first. I will take you out when I return to where I live."

"Yes, Master Mage." The old mechanic nodded and walked straight in.

Wu Heng then waved his hand, and tables, chairs, and snacks appeared in the mansion. "Don't touch the other accessories."

"Yes."

The mansion spell was closed, and the stone door and crack disappeared.

Wu Heng summoned the ghost train and returned to Treasure Island.

……

Island owner's mansion.

When Wu Heng returned, it was almost dusk.

Three maids came out to greet them, "Master."

"Well, is everything okay at home?" Wu Heng said with a smile.

"It's okay. Sister Shannella came just now, but went back when she saw you were not here." Minnie walked over and helped him take off his coat.

"When it's time for dinner, go call her and ask her if she wants to come and eat with us."
