Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

"How did those undead get into the city? Are there spies among the city defense forces?"

“It’s hard to say.”

Then, a lower voice asked, "How was the damage last night? Is Your Highness okay?"

"Is there any need to think about this? If something happens, they will search the whole city, and I'm afraid they will just go to war."

"Damn the undead."

"May the gods bless His Royal Highness!"

More and more customers came into the pub, and the table next to Wu Heng was also filled with people.

The topic of discussion at every table was basically related to what happened last night.

Although everyone at each table tried to lower their voices, Wu Heng could still hear them clearly.

It is basically certain that fighting did take place in the city.

Others saw the assembled troops and the prince's residence with black smoke rising out of it.

It is not fake news designed to confuse people.

But... why would it be publicized in the city of Rentam?

It should be easy to tell whether it was the undead who did it.

Wu Heng looked up and saw the bartender coming over with two people. He glanced at the remaining empty seats.

"Sir, if you don't have a companion, these two guests would like to sit here."

"No one, please sit down!" Wu Heng said.

The other two sat down on the chairs.

Wu Heng ate the last bite of bread and looked at the bartender, "Are there any rooms available?"

"Yes, sir, you want to stay in the hotel, right? The second floor has ordinary guest rooms, and the third floor is slightly better." The bartender said immediately.

"I want a room on the second floor, on the inner side."

"I'll take you to see it."

The two of them went upstairs together.

The two people who had just sat down, seeing Wu Heng leave on his own initiative, also began to chat in a low voice about the attack on the prince's mansion.

Going up to the second floor, Wu Heng took a look and paid the room fee, then booked it directly.

The bartender took the money, said he didn't want to disturb the guests, and closed the door.

……

The room was very simple.

There is a round table in the middle and a bed inside.

The windows on one side look out onto the street.

Wu Heng sat down at the round table, and Glenda and Benny, who had gone out for reconnaissance, appeared beside him.

"How is it?" Wu Heng asked.

Beni was the first to speak: "I went to the place where the army was stationed in the city. The highest level reached level 18, and there were also a few professionals at level 15."

Granda continued, "I went to the prince's mansion in the central area. There were a large number of troops stationed there. I saw three level 18 professionals."

Wu Heng frowned instantly.

As soon as I came here, I found 4 level 18 professionals.

"Where's the second prince? Is there anyone with a matching appearance?"

Benny shook her head to indicate that she didn't see it.

Glenda also said, "No, that prince's mansion is not a place to live at all. It's more like a trap to lure people in."

It turns out that the prince’s mansion was originally a fake place.

No wonder everyone in the city talks about the prince's mansion, that place is a trap.

Beni floated aside, pondered for a moment and said: "The mansion is fake, so is the information about the second prince here also fake?"

After hearing this, Wu Heng and Granda were both stunned.

Glenda nodded, "Possibly."

"I feel that it's unlikely." Wu Heng pondered for a moment, and under the inquiring gazes of the two ghosts, he explained: "The number of troops and level 18 professionals he can mobilize is limited, and the main forces are gathered here. He must be in this city. If he is outside, he will die if the news leaks."

There is an exploration profession in this world.

The prophet can find out the location of a person through objects.

I don’t have anything that the second prince has used, so why does the eldest prince have it too?

Therefore, it is impossible to use the main combat force to set traps, especially in the battle with Rentam City, no level 18 professionals were used.

This is enough to prove that the combat power in his hands is not sufficient.

The possibility that he is hiding somewhere else is even smaller.

Wu Heng continued, "It's possible that the mansion is fake, but he hid it somewhere else in the city."

"Your analysis makes sense." After hearing this, Glenda also agreed with this statement.

Penny followed up, "So, our next step is to search the entire city for him? This city is kind of big."

"The whole city is on alert now, so it's more difficult to find him." Glenda was also a little helpless.

Wu Heng didn't say anything. He thought for a moment and said, "We don't need to rush. Let's see if there is anything suspicious. As long as he is in the city, we will find him sooner or later."

"Then I'll go out and take a look." Benny said, and flew out again invisibly.

Grenda glanced at Benny who was leaving, and said to Wu Heng, "Be careful. There may be some exploration tools in the city. If there is any danger, get out first."

"Okay, I'll pay attention." Wu Heng said with a smile.

Glenda nodded and flew out as well.

……

The two ghosts left.

Wu Heng took out a new set of bedding and spread it on the bed.

There was a noise outside the window. I stood at the window and looked out, and saw the patrol team walking on the street and began to drive away some lingering residents in preparation for curfew.

"Uncle, hurry up and disguise yourself, the boss is coming with his guards." Xiaoxiao flew back from outside and said hurriedly.

Wu Heng listened carefully and heard footsteps and noise coming from the corridor outside the door.

He took out the mask and put it on, put the space ring in his arms, and asked, "What are you checking?"

"I asked if there were any outsiders, and the boss said yes, so he brought them up." Xiaoxiao said.

Bang~!

There was a muffled sound and the door opened wide.

The patrol team in uniform walked in and checked the situation in the room.

The leading captain looked around the room and asked coldly, "One person?"

"one person."

"What are you doing in town?"

"I heard that His Highness is recruiting soldiers, so I want to come and seek a career."

The captain looked him up and down. "You know how to choose the time. Are you a mercenary?"

Wu Heng said, "I have been a hunter for a few years and I have the strength."

"And!" the captain sneered, "Those who die are those who have strength."

At this time, the others who had just searched the room said, "Captain, there's nothing."

The captain nodded, motioned for them to leave, and said to Wu Heng, "Don't wander around."

"Okay." Wu Heng nodded.

The guards all left.

The hotel owner walked in, looking apologetic, "Sorry guest, we check once or twice a day."

"fine."

The hotel owner smiled, helped him close the door, and continued to chase the guards out.

……

"Uncle, they left and went to the next pub." Xiaoxiao flew back again.

"Yeah, the inspection in this city is really strict." Wu Heng hung the curtains and took off his mask.

"Uncle, will they come again?" Xiaoxiao continued to ask.

"Just check the outsiders in the tavern. Just one check is enough." Wu Heng replied.

Xiaoxiao floated over and said, "Oh, then do I still need to watch from outside?"

"No, if there is any danger, notify me immediately."

"Okay, uncle, give me the tablet so I can watch cartoons at night." Xiaoxiao said.

Wu Heng handed the tablet to Xiao Xiao, opened the [Mansion Technique], washed up inside, then came out and lay on the bed.

Looking at the ceiling, I was thinking about my plan.

Someone attacked the prince's residence last night, putting the entire city on high alert, which was also an obstacle to his own actions.

The assassin should be the eldest prince's man.

"Why do you have to advertise that it's from Rentam City?"

"All the blame is on this side!"

Take a deep breath and put your arms behind your head.

The next plan is to find the location of the second prince.

We can't just open the gate and go to war with the entire city!

After all, his original plan was to kill the second prince silently, relying on the skeletons to massacre the city.

By then, the association and the Vatican will come to cause trouble for me.

If the ghosts can't find each other, they can find two corpses and ask them.

Or if there are items used by the Second Prince, use the [Tracking Pendant] to find his location.

Thinking in his mind, he confirmed that Xiaoxiao was watching the video.

He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

……

early morning.

Wu Heng came out after washing up in the [Luxury House Technique].

Three ghosts were chatting about what happened last night at a round table.

Seeing Wu Heng coming out, Glenda handed him a piece of paper and said, "This is a map of the city. This is what it looks like from the air. I marked a few suspicious locations."

Wu Heng picked it up and took a look. On it was the rough outline of a city.

Several of the locations were circled separately.

"Let's go, let's eat first, and then go around according to the map." Wu Heng opened the door and walked out.

Went downstairs and ordered breakfast.

The bartender came over and asked, "Guest, do you still need to stay in the guest room?"

Wu Heng paid for another day's accommodation and said, "Stay."

"Good sir." The bartender took the money and walked him to the door with a smile.

Wu Heng also walked out directly, blended into the crowd on the street, and walked according to the location on the map.

……

Along the way, several areas were guarded by guards.

After wandering around, we arrived at a busy area.

The noisy market had just ended, and there were still vegetable and fruit crumbs and livestock feces on the stone road, and a mixed odor filled the air.

Wu Heng walked along the road, still thinking about his future plans in his mind.

I need a breakthrough to obtain more information about this city.

Walking forward, we gradually deviated from the main road and entered a dim alley.

Stop, look back and wait.

Soon, several figures followed in and blocked one side of the alley.

The leading man was in his 30s, with a face full of flesh and a horizontal scar on the top of his head, as if a centipede was lying on it.

There were four people following behind him, all with weapons on their waists and mocking looks in their eyes.

"Can you feel us following you, professional?" The scarred burly man grinned, revealing his yellow teeth, and looked him up and down.

Wu Heng asked calmly, "You guys, follow me in broad daylight. I've called the guards."

The scarred man sneered, and a man behind him said in a strange voice: "You shout and see if the guards will come, or come to collect your body."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows, "I haven't offended you guys, have I?"

Another person said, "This is the territory managed by our gang. You are unlucky. Two silver coins. We will go have a drink and you can do whatever you want."

This city is really chaotic.

On the street ahead, the guards are conducting strict inspections, and in the alleys behind, gangs randomly select lucky passers-by and collect tolls.

"His Royal Highness is recruiting troops. Your gang is capable, so why don't you help His Highness?" Wu Heng asked.

Wu Heng was not quite sure what the ancient earth was like.

But in this world, when something happens in the city, the gangs will basically be drafted into the army.

"You're nosy, kid. Go! See how much money he has, take it all, strip him naked and throw him on the street." said the burly man with the scar.

Behind him, someone came towards him with a terrifying grin and a wooden stick in his hand.

"Kid, remember this lesson from now on."

"Break your limbs, and you'll never forget it."

"Hmph! Then just beat him to death."

As they spoke, several people started hitting him on the head with wooden sticks in their hands.

Wu Heng grabbed the wooden stick with one hand, facing the other party's disbelieving eyes.

Bang Bang Bang ~!

After a violent hammering sound, everyone fell to the ground.

The scarred man in the distance suddenly changed his expression, "You, you can leave now. We in the Red Wind Gang respect the strong."

After saying that, he turned around and tried to escape.

The next second, his body froze in place, and then he retreated back into the depths of the alley, step by step.

Bang~!

The broken stick hit his neck.

His cervical vertebra was broken, his head drooped unnaturally to one side, and then his body fell down.

"Hmph! You little thief." Xiaoxiao said.

Penny said, "There's no one around."

Wu Heng used [Talk to the Dead] on Scar's corpse, and the corpse sat up again.

His head was still hanging to one side, but his eyes were open and looking over here.

Wu Heng asked, "Why weren't you drafted into the army?"

The corpse replied, "The city needs us to help manage some places and deal with matters that are not convenient for the army to intervene."

Wu Heng then asked, "Who was the one who assassinated the prince's mansion?"

"The assassin from Rentam City."

It seems that the outside world believes that it is a killer from Rentam City.

The blame has been firmly put on him.

"Where is the second prince?"

"In the prince's residence."

After three questions, basically no useful information was obtained.

These people are all members of gangs in the city, so it is difficult to get any useful information from them.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, then asked, "Who is your leader?"

"Sid!"

"where is he?"

"It's in the gang's base in the back."

Five questions were over and the body lay back on the ground.

Wu Heng said to the ghost beside him: "Bennie, go and take a look in the courtyard."

"Okay." Benny agreed and flew out.

Wu Heng took out his space ring, rolled up the corpse, and put everything away.

……

Wu Heng finished cleaning up the scene.

Beni also flew back from outside and said, "Two professionals of around level 5 are in the hall, and a professional of level 10 is counting money in the room. He should be the gang leader."

"Let me take a look at the venue and then we'll go in directly." Wu Heng said.

Benny got inside and shared the scene.

The distance was not far. After Wu Heng determined the position, a magic circle emerged from under his feet.

The next second, he appeared in a courtyard.

"who?"

"How did you . . . ."

The two people who were drinking tea in the hall immediately noticed Wu Heng who suddenly appeared. As soon as they opened their mouths to speak, their bodies froze in place.

A "click~click" sound was heard.

He broke his neck directly.

Then, a figure rushed out from the inside holding a long knife, glanced at the corpse on the ground and the figure walking towards him, and was about to speak.

The body stiffened.

Click~!

There was a sound of breaking bones and the neck was twisted into a knot.

……

"No big deal!" Xiaoxiao said excitedly.

Three ghosts also appeared from mid-air.

When ghosts kill low-level professionals, it feels like a dimensionality reduction attack.

That’s not true. For any profession, killing them at level 20 is a dimensionality reduction attack.

Wu Heng set his sights on the gang leader lying on the ground.

Directly release [Talk to the Dead], the corpse sits up again and looks over here.

"Where is the second prince?"

The corpse replied, "The Prince's residence."

This answer again.

It seems that most people believe that the second prince lives in the mansion.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Where is Bryce?"

"Not sure where?"

Huh? He knows Bryce?

The name Bryce was suggested by the level 18 thief that he had captured.

He said that this man gave him two tickets and hired him to kill Wen Mansha.

"Who is he?"

"He is a level 18 professional, responsible for intelligence work in the city."

Not a businessman?

The thief was deceiving himself.

……

Outside the city, in a wooden house.

An old figure walked back from outside.

Inside the wooden house, many eyes looked over, and one of them asked, "How is it?"

"The city is under total martial law. It will be difficult to get back in within a short period of time." said the old figure.

"Where's the second prince? Can you find him?"

"Didn't find any trace." The old man sat down aside.

The inquiring figure remained silent, his eyes again focused on the corner, "Viola, can your profession find him?"

"I know the Prophet can."
