Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1056: The broken limbs are really reborn

"Are you playing dumb with me?" Lilith pinched Wu Heng's waist with her fingers and said, "You ran to the Holy Temple. Do you really think I don't know?"

Wu Heng smiled. It was impossible to hide such a thing, so he simply said directly: "I'm afraid you will worry!"

Lilith's face was cold, and her voice was filled with grievance. "Are you afraid that I'll leak the secret to you? You've been hiding it from me all this time!"

Wu Heng immediately held her hand and pulled her to sit on his lap. "How could that be? I'm just worried that you'll be embarrassed."

He gently stroked her palm with his fingertips and continued, "If I told you in advance, how uncomfortable would it be for you to be caught in the middle when the association asked about it?"

"Huh, so many excuses." Lilith turned her face away, but her tense shoulders had relaxed a little.

Wu Heng took the opportunity to hug her waist tightly, "What is our relationship? I can't hide it from anyone else but you."

Lilith finally turned around and put her arm around his neck. "Can you tell the truth now?"

“Of course!” Wu Heng smiled brightly. “Which part do you want to hear?”

“Why the sudden attack on the temple?”

"Before, we were only thinking about defense, which was too passive." Wu Heng drew circles on her waist with his fingers. "I was thinking, why not just steal the artifact that the Holy See uses to produce heroes and solve the problem once and for all—"

"You call that stealing?!" Lilith almost jumped up. "You smashed up the church! You knocked the whole city unconscious! You even stripped the Pope down to his underwear, right?"

Wu Heng looked innocent: "The method might be a little radical?"

Lilith held her forehead!

Is this a bit rough? It's like shoving the Vatican in the face.

But judging from the outcome, this operation was successful. Going to the church to get something was as easy as going to the vegetable market.

Lilith ran her fingers across his chest and asked softly, "What method did you use to make the entire city unconscious?"

This kind of thing definitely can't be hidden from Lilith.

She had already placed spies in the temple, and the news would definitely be passed on later.

"A special device that can make all living things within a certain range fall into a coma." Wu Heng replied.

"Mental attack?" Lilith understood it herself.

"That's it."

In this way, infrasound should also be considered a mental attack.

Lilith stood up, her silk pajamas slipping off her shoulders. She said with some emotion, "If you hadn't switched to a necromancer, you could have achieved quite a bit of accomplishment with just these magical gadgets."

"It's good like this now." Wu Heng smiled and pulled her back into his arms. "It's because of this job that I'm able to survive until now."

"That's right." Lilith's red lips curled up slightly, and she suddenly changed the subject, "Have you seen the Pope?"

"I saw it! He was unconscious and peaceful." Wu Heng played with the ends of her hair.

Lilith rolled her eyes at him unhappily. What a word.

It's as if the other person is dead.

But I also understand why the Pope is so low-key this time.

It was obvious that he was afraid that Wu Heng would make a surprise attack and kill him again.

"I thought you were going to kill him." Lilith muttered.

Wu Heng gently stroked the other person's hand and paused, saying, "I thought about it, but I didn't dare."

Lilith chuckled and helped him take off his coat. "You're smart. The Church is no longer a threat now. Killing him might just bring even greater trouble."

"I thought so too." Wu Heng continued to ask; "What's the current situation in the Holy Hall?"

"The whole city is in a panic!" Lilith sat astride his lap, her hands resting lightly on his chest. "But the Pope hasn't made any moves. He must have been frightened by you."

"He's afraid I'll kill him again." Wu Heng held her waist. "Your men will continue to keep an eye on him for me. Remember to inform me if you have any intelligence."

"You don't have to say that... Do you think I'm like you? You're still hiding things." Lilith suddenly leaned over and bit his earlobe.

Wu Heng picked her up and pressed her onto the soft couch, mumbling as their lips met, "I love you so much!"

……

The next day.

The early morning sunlight filtered through the gauze curtains into the side hall. The holy cabinet stood quietly on the table, its silver-white surface radiating a faint golden glow.

Lilith walked around the Holy Ark, her fingertips lightly touching the relief patterns on it. "I didn't expect that the core secret of the Holy See would be in such a cabinet."

She was originally in charge of intelligence work.

The Secret Whisperer spent so much effort to find out what this strange object of the Holy See was, but he didn't expect it to be just such a cabinet.

"We had previously speculated that it might be the Holy Grail or a scepter or something like that." Wu Heng shrugged, "In the end, it turned out to be this thing."

Xiao Xiao asked somewhat ostentatiously, "Sister! Do you know what the side effects of this magical item are?"

"What is it?" Lilith asked with a smile.

Xiaoxiao pinched her waist, "The human form is worn out."

"What do you mean?" Lilith asked.

Xiaoxiao looked at Wu Heng, "Uncle, what did you mean?"

Wu Heng said angrily, "I told you yesterday, have you forgotten so quickly?"

"I didn't quite understand it at the time." Xiaoxiao chuckled.

Wu Heng explained, "People who use the Holy Ark to become heroes will experience changes in their personality, emotions, or human appearance."

Xiao Xiao said "oh", and Lilith nodded, then asked, "Can you use him to train a hero?"

"No, it needs the power of faith from the Holy See to drive it." Wu Heng's tone was somewhat regretful. "For the time being, it's just a decoration in our hands."

"It's just a decoration. If the Holy See loses it, it will never dare to act rashly again." Lilith said calmly.

"That's what I thought." Wu Heng continued, "By the way! I have quite a few unused items and tools here. Do you have any suggestions on how to put them to good use?"

Lilith replied, "Give it to your subordinates, or hand it over to the association and use the association's merits to exchange for what you want."

Wu Heng had thought about both aspects.

Everything that can be distributed has been distributed, and it is impossible to submit it to the Association.

These things from the Holy See enter the association’s warehouse and will eventually return to the hands of the Holy See.

In the end, the Vatican used it to deal with him again.

Xiaoxiao said: "My aunt said that high-level professionals can be reforged!"

Lilith looked at her and said, "It is indeed possible to forge it, but the damage to the artifact is enormous. After the forging is completed, it is difficult to even achieve the effect of an ordinary item."

"Oh! That's a big loss." Xiaoxiao touched his chin.

Lilith continued, "There's another method. The dwarves possess a special artifact called the Molten Core. This artifact can remelt various materials and artifacts into new items, but the type and properties of the items cannot be controlled."

Molten Core?

Wu Heng had heard this word before. It was mentioned in the dwarf intelligence that was intercepted before.

At that time, the dwarves were preparing materials for Molten Core. It turned out that this was a rare item.

"This is good!" Wu Heng said.

"If you have a chance, talk to Bruno. They regard this rare item as a treasure of the clan and rarely lend it out. It depends on your favor." Lilith said calmly.

"Is it not working even if I mention you?"

"Don't mention me if there's nothing to do."

Wu Heng also nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact him then."

Lilith stood up again and walked out. "Nothing, let's go practice first!"

"Ok!"

The two of them took Xiaoxiao and walked out of the side hall together.

Lilith went to the courtyard to practice the first stage, while Wu Heng went to the training ground to continue the third stage of practice.

……

afternoon!

After completing his training, Wu Heng and the Empress returned to the Island Master's Mansion together.

The others were busy with their own things. Wu Heng said hello to Minnie, then took the ghosts back to the study, and then went to the zombie world through the gate.

After walking out of the gate, he released the ghosts first, distributed the mobile phones, and then called Li Yahong.

"Hello~!" Li Yahong's voice came through the receiver, and the background sound was mixed with the roar of machinery.

"How is the base lately?" Wu Heng asked casually.

"Everything is going according to plan, and there haven't been any issues." Li Yahong's tone was filled with confidence. "Qi Hancai said everything is fine on her end, and there aren't any more problems with the Dawn Alliance."

"That's good!" Wu Heng thought for a moment and then asked, "Did you use the mirror and Rubik's Cube I gave you last time? How were the results?"

"It's amazing!" The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly rose an octave. "The 'projection' that appears on the mirror is just like a real person. Sister Zhao uses the projection effect to preach, and the effect is very good."

After saying that, he continued, "Are there no extra ones? It would be even better if they could be used everywhere."

"I'm preparing! I'll send it to you when it's ready." Wu Heng said with a smile, and with a thought, he opened the system panel to check the faith value.

【Faith: 23741/50000.】

The speed of numerical growth is still very fast. If this trend continues, I will definitely be able to break through the heroic stage this year.

Moreover, the threat from the Holy See has been basically resolved now, so it shouldn't be a problem to hold out until then.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, then said, "I'll go over later. Xiaoxiao misses her mother too."

"Uncle is using me as an excuse again. I'm not a child anymore." Xiaoxiao said dissatisfiedly from behind.

Wu Heng smiled and nodded at Xiaoxiao.

Li Yahong also said on the phone, "Okay, Sister Zhao is preaching the doctrine in the square. I'll talk to her later."

"Ok!"

After hanging up the phone, Wu Heng stood up and said, "Let's go to the central area. We can check our phones after we get in the car."

Wu Heng stood up and went downstairs, followed by the four ghosts.

Discussing how to continue to speed up the collection of faith.

……

Central area, square.

The setting sun was like blood, dyeing the central square into a golden red.

The temporary wooden platform was coated with a brilliant light edge. Zhao Yanqiu stood in the center of the platform in his gorgeous archbishop robe, and the "Holy Book of Awakening" in his hand fluttered in the evening breeze.

The sound echoed in the square through the loudspeaker, and each syllable seemed to carry a strange resonance.

"In the last days, only the great Pope can guide you and me..."

Before he finished speaking, a golden light suddenly appeared in the sky.

The clouds seemed to be torn apart by invisible hands, and endless rays of light poured down.

Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes that suddenly widened, Wu Heng's figure floated in the air, the Pope's robe moved without wind, and the crown on his head reflected a colorful halo.

“It’s the Pope!”

The crowd bowed in unison like waves of wheat, with an attitude of piety and respect.

Zhao Yanqiu raised her arms at the right moment, "Witness it! This is the embodiment of true knowledge walking among men!"

The phantom in the sky nodded slightly, and scattered countless feathers of light.

Gorgeous as a miracle.

After all the ceremonies were over, Wu Heng fell from the air and disappeared backstage, while Zhao Yanqiu left with a smile on her face.

The believers all stood up, dispersed in an orderly manner, and returned to their homes.

……

Escorted by the skeleton attendants, Zhao Yanqiu returned to Li Yahong's office study.

When he pushed open the door, he saw Wu Heng and Li Yahong sitting on the sofa and talking, while Xiaoxiao, who was controlling the puppet, was curled up on a single sofa beside him, holding a tablet computer and laughing from time to time.

"Mom!" As soon as Xiaoxiao saw her, he immediately dropped the tablet and threw himself into her arms.

Zhao Yanqiu hugged her daughter and looked at Wu Heng softly, with a slight smile on her lips. "Your Excellency the Pope, how did you find time to come here?"

"I feel this is suitable for you, so I'm sending it to you." Wu Heng smiled and took out a gorgeous scepter from the space ring. It was golden in color and inlaid with a huge dazzling gem on the top, emitting a sacred halo under the light.

Li Yahong and Zhao Yanqiu's attention was instantly attracted, and their eyes were shining.

Xiaoxiao introduced: "Mom, this weapon is powerful! It allows you to unleash the power of the Holy See!"

"The Holy See?" Zhao Yanqiu frowned slightly and looked at Wu Heng in confusion.

Xiaoxiao was stunned, and seemed to realize that she had let the cat out of the bag. She immediately covered her mouth and looked at Wu Heng with blinking eyes.

Wu Heng explained with a smile, "It's a religious organization. This scepter was originally used by their Pope. Now that it's handed over to you, it should be able to exert a better effect."

Two candidates were originally considered for this scepter.

Archbishop Zhao Yanqiu from the zombie world, or Celia from another world.

But if you think about it carefully, the professionals in the other world are accustomed to magic, and the effect of the scepter is not uncommon to them. Moreover, using it externally may easily attract the attention of the Holy See.

But in the zombie world, this ability is enough to shock people.

So, after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to give it to Zhao Yanqiu.

Zhao Yanqiu and Li Yahong looked at each other. Although they were confused, they didn't care much about the origin of the scepter, but were more concerned about its function.

"What are the specific effects?" Zhao Yanqiu asked.

"Wound healing, toxin purification, and..." Wu Heng paused, his lips curled up slightly, "regeneration of severed limbs."

"Regeneration of severed limbs?!" The two women widened their eyes at the same time.

They could understand wound healing, after all, the medicines produced at the base could achieve similar effects.

But regenerating severed limbs? This was beyond their comprehension.

Wu Heng nodded. "Is there anyone with a broken limb in the base? I'll show you how to do it."

"Yes!" Li Yahong immediately picked up the landline and dialed a number.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door and a middle-aged man with a cane walked in.

As soon as the man saw Wu Heng, he immediately bowed respectfully, "Your Excellency the Pope."

Zhao Yanqiu said gently, "The Pope heard about your situation and wanted to see your leg injury."

"Now? But I...!" The man was a little embarrassed. He looked down at his dirty trouser legs and said awkwardly, "I haven't showered yet..."

"Don't dawdle, this is a rare opportunity for you." Li Yahong urged.

The man hesitated for a moment, and finally rolled up his trouser legs, revealing his mutilated calf.

The broken limb had healed, but the skin was dark, obviously not having been properly cleaned for a long time.

"It was run over by a car while I was fleeing. Medical conditions were limited at the time, so I had to amputate..." the man explained with a wry smile.

Wu Heng nodded, gripped the scepter tightly, and said, "It might hurt a little later, don't be afraid."

The man swallowed, a puzzled look in his eyes.

But he felt that Wu Heng would not harm him, so he nodded.

The next second, Wu Heng raised the scepter, and a brilliant golden light suddenly burst out, covering the man's broken limbs.

"Ah--!" The man suddenly let out a heart-wrenching scream, and the flesh and blood on the broken limbs began to wriggle violently, while the bones, muscles and skin grew and extended at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Zhao Yanqiu and Li Yahong stared at the scene with wide eyes, even their breathing stopped.

I go!

The broken limbs grew back.
