Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1297: Do Your Best, Leave the Rest to Fate**

Lin Moyu’s points were naturally enough. He still had more than 190 million points on him.

Counting the 100 million deposit he had already paid, Lin Moyu’s total points exceeded 290 million.

The four materials had a total value of 280 million, and after paying, he still had 10 million points left.

Yu Zhu seemed very happy. Lin Moyu chuckled, “I don’t owe your Yu family a favor anymore, so why are you happy instead?”

Yu Zhu snorted, “They are them, I am me. I just don’t like calculating everything so precisely.”

“Moreover, if I really encounter difficulties, would the captain stand by and do nothing?”

“Remember, I am your team member, your subordinate. How can a captain ignore the life and death of his team members?” Yu Zhu spoke righteously, making it hard to refuse.

Lin Moyu smiled, “Some captains would let their team members be scapegoats.”

Yu Zhu remained righteous, “I don’t care about other captains, but my captain wouldn’t.”

Lin Moyu smiled, “Let’s proceed with the transaction.”

The process went smoothly. Lin Moyu paid the remaining 180 million points and received the four materials from Yu Zhu.

Such private transactions do not generate any military merit rewards.

After the transaction was completed, Yu Zhu refilled Lin Moyu’s tea, “Captain, now that you’ve used up your points, are you going to take on more missions to earn points?”

Lin Moyu said, “Coming to the battlefield is all about taking on missions and completing them. These points and materials are just by-products of the missions.”

Yu Zhu pouted, “Others don’t think that way. Many come to the battlefield just to earn points. After all, points are easier to earn on the battlefield than in the human star domain.”

“Everyone has their own aspirations.” Lin Moyu suddenly thought of his mission, “Do you know where I can get intelligence?”

Yu Zhu raised her eyebrows, “What kind of intelligence does the captain need? Our trading center can trade not only goods but also intelligence. However, some intelligence is classified as military secrets, which we cannot provide.”

Lin Moyu said, “I want to know if any of the top 10 on the bounty list are on the battlefield, and if possible, their specific locations.”

Yu Zhu immediately understood Lin Moyu’s intention, “Captain, are you planning to hunt them?”

“Yes, I have a mission to complete.” Lin Moyu did not hide his intention.

Yu Zhu thought for a moment, “This kind of intelligence probably isn’t readily available, and I’m not in charge of this area. I’ll have to ask around. If I get any information, I’ll contact you first.”

Lin Moyu nodded, “Alright, I’ll wait for your news.”

In Fortress No. 10, Zhu Qiwu still sat in the void.

Since he came to the Vermilion Bird Battlefield, a thousand years had passed.

In these thousand years, Zhu Qiwu’s main body had never left, and he had only taken action a few times.

However, the high-ranking military officers on the battlefield knew that Zhu Qiwu actually had a clone.

His clone was very special, different from ordinary clones, and somewhat similar to the demon race’s clones.

It was said that his clone came from the Divine City, but Zhu Qiwu never spoke of it, and no one dared to ask.

At this moment, Zhu Qiwu’s clone was in a not-so-tall house in Fortress No. 10.

Inside the house stood more than a dozen people, all god-sovereigns, elders from various fortresses, and even two legion commanders.

On the table in the middle of the room were over a hundred light clusters.

Each light cluster was only the size of a fist, containing a soul.

The souls had lifeless eyes and dull expressions, having lost their intelligence.

However, each soul emitted a strong aura, each reaching the third grade.

They were once god-kings, but now their bodies were destroyed, their intelligence erased, leaving them in such a state.

Zhu Qiwu sat at the head of the table, his voice low, “Does anyone have a solution?”

No one spoke, and everyone’s faces looked grim.

Zhu Qiwu seemed to have anticipated this answer. In fact, he knew it would be difficult to save them when he first obtained these souls.

But not trying would leave him with regret.

Most of these god-kings were once geniuses, very intelligent.

Among them were the offspring of military elders and disciples of legion commanders, essentially military personnel.

The military had high hopes for them, but unfortunately…

Seeing that no one had a solution, Zhu Qiwu gently tapped the table, and all the light clusters were collected by him, “I’ll think of another way.”

Everyone looked at Zhu Qiwu with hopeful eyes, “We’ll leave it to you, Lord Guardian.”

They all knew Zhu Qiwu’s extraordinary status and connections with influential figures.

Perhaps he could find a solution.

Just as Zhu Qiwu had brought these god-king souls back from the ancient tomb, something they couldn’t have done.

They speculated that it wasn’t Zhu Qiwu who did it but some influential figure.

If Zhu Qiwu could have done it, he would have done it long ago, not waited until now.

After everyone left, only Ke Yuanjun and Bai Qitian remained.

Among the over a hundred souls, there were Ke Yuanjun’s disciple and Bai Qitian’s only son.

Bai Qitian respectfully saluted Zhu Qiwu, “Thank you, Lord Guardian.”

Zhu Qiwu waved his hand, “It wasn’t me who did it, no need to thank me.”

Ke Yuanjun asked, “Lord, is there really a way? That influential figure…”

He didn’t finish his sentence. As a legion commander, he knew some information.

Such influential figures couldn’t act casually and seemed to have many restrictions.

Zhu Qiwu said, “Don’t ask. I’ll think of a way. If they can’t be saved, don’t be too sad. Life and death are part of the Great World, and people die every day. You understand this.”

Bai Qitian sighed, “If they can’t be saved, it’s their fate.”

Ke Yuanjun also sighed, saluting Zhu Qiwu, “Thank you for your trouble, Lord.”

Zhu Qiwu waved them away.

In the empty room, Zhu Qiwu sighed deeply, “Human effort has its limits. We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate.”

As his voice fell, Zhu Qiwu’s figure disappeared from the room.

Lin Moyu returned to the training ground and rented a cultivation chamber.

This time, he planned to summon the Elemental Lich.

With the four materials, he could summon four Elemental Liches.

He already had a Flame Elemental Lich, but its combat power was insufficient, so he rarely used it.

The same problem applied to the Water and Lightning Elemental Liches, making them awkward to use.

Only the Light Speed Elemental Lich was still in use. Its Light Speed Law Aura allowed Lin Moyu to reach a speed of 30,000 kilometers per second, one-tenth the speed of light.

But as Lin Moyu’s strength continued to grow, this speed would soon be insufficient.

Once Lin Moyu reached the god-king realm, the speed of his Undead Wings would exceed 30,000 kilometers per second.

At that point, the Light Speed Law Aura would be officially obsolete.

This was the limitation of the Elemental Lich, requiring constant new materials for growth.

Without high-level materials, they couldn’t evolve and would gradually fall behind.

Another reason was Lin Moyu’s rapid strength growth.

If his growth were slower, the Elemental Liches could still shine.

Opening the first box, a burst of flames shot out, rapidly increasing the temperature in the cultivation chamber.

Within the flames was a fiery red Stellar Flame Crystal, crystal clear.

A Flame Elemental Lich appeared beside Lin Moyu.
