Once the target was confirmed.

Wu Heng had the weapons and armor of the three fugitives from yesterday,

along with 10 spears, brought over.

They were neatly laid out in front of him.

There were two types of weapons.

A pair of short swords, two one-handed long swords, and 5 Poison Smoke

Thunders.

It seemed that these fugitives really liked carrying Poison Smoke Thunders, it’s unknown why. They didn’t use them during the battles.

No, it’s not that they didn’t want to use them.

Even if they released the Poison Smoke Thunder, it would mainly affect them

and not the skeletons.

His gaze fell back on the weapons.

The craftsmanship of the short swords and long swords were quite good, not premium but far better than the regular iron swords Wu Heng bought for 3 silver coins each.

He kept the pair of short swords for self-defense and handed the two remaining long swords to two skeletons.

Although these swords were better than the regular iron swords, they were still relatively ordinary. When it came to actually using iron swords for combat, it would be more worthwhile to spend a little more for better quality ones.

After distributing the weapons, the next step was to allocate the three sets of armor.

The armors were in bad shape, with numerous scratches from the erratic attacks of the skeleton warriors.

But it didn’t matter, these were to be worn by skeletons. Any increase in defense, however small, was good.

After equipping the three spear-wielding skeletons with armor.

He then chose ten more skeleton warriors and replaced their weapons with

newly purchased spears.

The number of skeletons armed with spears now totaled fifteen.

Once everything was prepared, Wu Heng continued to give orders, “Follow

me!”

The skeleton army followed him down the stairs and exited the building.

The zombies on the ground floor had been exterminated several times, and no new ones had appeared overnight.

After ensuring that there were no abnormal situations in the surroundings, they set off towards the north gate.

After passing two buildings, they were already close to the north gate.

Through the gaps in the iron fence, one could see the situation outside.

There were small groups of zombies wandering aimlessly and though they seemed few in number, adding up they totaled about twenty or thirty in number.

This was the route the survivor’s bus had taken when it forcefully plowed through.

But the bus had not overturned here, and the zombies along this route had been lured away towards the crossroads in the east.

Probably because of this, there weren’t many zombies in this area.

“You few, stand by near the gate.” Wu Heng commanded.

The fifteen spear-wielding skeletons sparsely positioned themselves upfront,

with their spears resting by the gate.

From a distance, the zombies noticed the movement on this side.

When the first zombie roared and rushed towards them, it initiated a chain reaction. The surrounding zombies one after another began to roar, its sound spreading rapidly throughout the street.

All the zombies, in unison turned towards the gate of the residential complex, and rushed towards it with their teeth bared and claws extended.

“Crouch, weapons forward!”

Wu Heng quickly adjusted the positions of two skeletons, and continued to give orders.

Whoosh!

The skeletons crouched, their spears held out in front of them.

Roar- Roar!

Several dozen zombies rushed towards them, straight towards the formation of skeletons.

Seeing the zombies charging towards them, Wu Heng raised his hand to cast

Grease Skill.

The air became viscous, creating a patch of grease that was three to four meters wide, covering the ground.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

All at once, the zombies slipped and fell face-first. Those behind continued to rush forward, causing a domino effect of falling zombies.

The feature of the Grease Skill was to create difficult terrain.

It’s like brushing a layer of oil on a tiled floor.

Within a blink of an eye, the charging zombies stumbled and fell as if they were rolling gourds.

After a brief moment of chaos, some zombies managed to climb up stepping over their fallen comrades, charging straight towards the forward-pointing spears.

Thud!

The sharp iron spear pierced through a zombie’s chest, oozing a thick black and red fluid.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The spear-wielding skeletons started thrusting their spears relentlessly, attacking the charging zombies.

[Experience gained +6.]

[Summoned entity – Skeleton Warrior, experience +3.]

[Summoned entity – Skeleton Warrior, experience +5-]

[Summoned entity…]

[Summoned entity – Skeleton Warrior, Level increased to Level 2, Strength +1.]

[…I

The prompts for gaining experience started to increase, still accumulating on a few spear-wielding skeletons.

And the few newly added level 1 Skeleton Warriors started to gradually reach level 2.

The skeletons already at level 2 were also quickly accumulating experience.

The Grease Skill lasted for about two or three minutes before it evaporated cleanly into the air.

But in the open space in front of the block, a small hill made of bodies had piled

up.

The zombie attack required climbing over the mound of corpses to continue attacking the skeletons.

Gradually, the number of zombies decreased.

Only a few zombies with severed lower limbs continued crawling over here.

Wu Heng glanced at the deserted road, saying, “Go, kill those remaining zombies.”

Skeleton Teddy excitedly jumped out of the group of skeletons, quickly rushed to a few slowly crawling zombies, bit them one by one to death, and then dragged the corpses back.

On both sides of the road were various shops.

Most of them were fruit and vegetable vendors and restaurants.

Food in such shops wouldn’t last long, after casually checking out a couple of them, a few kitchen knives and watermelon knives were found, the rest were not much of use.

After a sweep, a store was spotted.

“Follow me!”

A few skeletons trailed behind and entered the store ahead.

Various snacks and instant noodles were scattered on the ground, undamaged, and none of the survivors had moved them.

The owner of the store must have become a member of the zombies. It is unknown whether he ran away or died at the hands of the skeletons.

Having looked around the first floor of the store, things here were quite well- preserved.

Only the ice cream in the freezer had melted and was sloppily wrapped in packaging bags.

Then, he went upstairs with the skeletons.

The second floor was not shelved, but bedrooms and warehouses.

It contained stacks of boxes of instant noodles and drinks, as well as some snacks.

It felt quite nice.

“Move all these.” Wu Heng started to give instructions.

Skeleton warriors entered the store, moving things out.

Wu Heng continued looking down the road, not venturing too far, so as not to draw more zombies.

He was directing the skeletons to haul the snacks from the store back to their original dwelling place.

Then he sat in front of the door releasing the Bone Manipulation Skill.

One by one, the skeletons stood up and joined the roster.

Returns to the original dwelling.

The snacks and drinks that were brought back were neatly placed against the wall.

The supermarket didn’t seem big, but there was a lot of stuff.

Even without Black Stone Town, with all these things, I could sustain myself for a while.

They say that in an apocalypse, food is more valuable than gold.

But where to exchange all this food for gold? After so many days, I haven’t even encountered a surviving person.

The only one I saw was dead while trying to escape.

The second bedroom was filled, and then the skeletons were instructed to move the stuff to the living room.

He then walked out of the room and looked at his own 15-men spear array.

The hand-picked skeletons, themselves, had accumulated plenty of experience, and during the recent battle, they all leveled up to level 2.

One at level 3, fourteen at level 2.

Actually, this method doesn’t seem too bad. It doesn’t have any negative impact and can raise the level of the skeletons.

“We can also buy some more spears and armor.
