Chapter 51: Stealing Corpse - Part 1



After all, this world lacked surveillance mechanisms, hence the supervision of some important matters required a large number of people to be arranged for it.

The deployment of professional squads and guard rows, put bluntly, was for mutual supervision.

It also reflected the town hall and association’s emphasis on corpses.

But this made Wu Heng feel a bit uncomfortable.

He felt as if he was being targeted.

The corpse was lifted onto the cart and driven in the direction of the crematorium.

The city had designated cremation sites. It wasn’t like in the movies where people were burnt to death openly in the town square.

The direction in which the first and second squads were leaving with the corpse was the same as he had deduced.

Heading to a standalone cremation site, their corpses, along with those of the third squad, were going to a crematorium that could burn multiple bodies simultaneously.

Wu Heng followed the crowd out.

He was somewhat worried about his plan.

Yuli came over and asked, “My aunt said you killed these people alone?’1

“It was a team kill, but I landed the last hit,” Wu Heng replied.

Yuli furrowed her brows, “What does that mean?”

“Which means, the team had already beaten them up pretty badly and I was the one who killed them in the end.”

“Oh, that’s quite impressive,” Yuli praised him and then asked, “Did you bring the food in the lounge?”

“Yes.”

“Do you have more? I can pay for it.”

Wu Heng looked at her and said, “I originally brought it for my friends. There wasn’t much to begin with.”

“I can buy it.”

“Not for sale.”

The little girl’s eyes flickered as she said, “I could be your friend. Didn’t we go out together yesterday? Don’t tell me you forgot!”

Hearing this, Autruck turned his head back and glanced at them.

Wu Heng looked at Yuli, who was hinting at him, and nodded, “To be friends, you have to help each other out.”

“Alright, deal.”

“Okay, then I’ll bring you some of those delicious and rare treats tomorrow.”

“Great, you are a good friend.”

Meanwhile.

The cart carrying the corpse slowly drove towards the East District.

The professional squad and guards escorting the cart were standing on both sides of it.

Tulisa, the captain of the second squad, glanced sideways, and said, “The town hall and the council are paying quite an attention to this corpse.”

The combined efforts of the association and the guards were a bit excessive, even for an elder of the Church of Divine Punishment.

“Mainly because they worry about the Necromancer involved with the Mining Village, they had to be more careful,” said Anel, the captain of the first squad, while resting his hand on the hilt of his longsword. He went on to say, “I heard that the Necromancer from the fourth squad also wanted to transform this body.”

Tulisa and the other members also looked over when they heard this.

If this corpse was truly transformed into a skeleton, then the strength of the fourth squad would dramatically increase.

Despite having the fewest members, they could become a top-ranking squad.

But obviously, this didn’t succeed, or else they wouldn’t be cremating the corpse.

“Didn’t the town hall agree?” Tulisa continued asking.

“The town hall didn’t agree, the council didn’t agree either. The profession of Necromancer is controversial in itself. How could they possibly hand over the corpse to him?” Anel sneered.

“He just joined the association not long ago, and he dares to make such demands.”

“He probably thinks that since they killed it, the ownership should belong to the fourth squad.”

“Haha, young people, audacious. They dare to raise such demands.”

The squad members laughed and began discussing.

Anel glanced at the people, their expressions froze, and they immediately shut up.

“Keep your voices down, don’t let the guards hear it, otherwise we will end up being the joke,” Anel reminded them.

The members laughed again and continued their whispers.

The captain of the second squad, Tulisa, didn’t say anything else, she went back to her squad and casually chatted with her members.

The procession kept moving forward and entered a small courtyard enclosed by a half-human height wall.

In the middle of the courtyard was a common stone house. Next to the wall, there was a pile of firewood.

Everyone efficiently searched the courtyard; Anel said, “Prepare the woodpile.”

The body was wheeled into the stone house; two people guarded outside, the rest started piling up the firewood.

Just when the stacking was almost done, a girl’s voice came from outside the courtyard wall, the language couldn’t be understood, but it was very clear.

Swish swish swish!

Pets flew up in the sky one by one, everyone drew their weapons and quickly approached the source of the noise.

They looked all around.

Anel ordered, “Spread out and search.”

The members scattered and searched nearby, then quickly returned.

“There’s no one!”

“There’s no one here either.”

Everyone looked at each other.

Anel’s face changed, “Go back, now!”

They rushed into the stone house, and the corpse, wrapped in linen, was still placed there.

Tulisa wanted to inspect, but Anel bluntly said, “No need, something is not right here, just cremate it.”

Two team members threw the corpse onto the woodpile, inflaming it with torches.

The corpse was engulfed by the tremendous fire.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as everything was completely burnt.

The team followed the carriage back to the association to report.

The burning operation was completed.

Wu Heng, with Basen, headed towards the crowded area.

Halfway through, he felt the ghost, Xiao Xiao flew back at him, directly entering his body.

At the same time, what happened at the other cremation site also appeared in his mind.

Xiao Xiao had made noises outside.

Jianyi, wrapped in zombie cosplay, took the opportunity to enter the stone house, replaced the corpse with one of a similar type.

Things were even easier than expected.

Because of the team leader’s hurry, even before burning, they did not do a body check and directly set it aflame, leaving no trace of it.

It could be said that the operation was very successful, without leaving any evidence or handle behind.

After confirming that things went smoothly, Wu Heng immediately turned around and went to that cremation site.

In a hidden place outside the courtyard, he found Jianyi, wrapped in corpse cosplay, and that corpse.

After ensuring no one was around, Wu Heng entered the stone house in the middle, and using a bronze key on the inside of a closet, he sent Jianyi and the corpse into the Zombie World.

Then he briskly returned to the crowded area following the same route.

Back at his residence.

Wu Heng went to the Zombie World again through the boundary door.

The corpse of the Church of Divine Punishment elder was covered with a piece of flower cloth, lying stiffly on the floor of the living room.

He came before the corpse.

“Uncle, what is it for, to steal a corpse?” Xiao Xiao fluttered in the air, looked at Wu Heng, then at the corpse.

She didn’t understand why he went through such a fuss just to steal a corpse.

The corpses downstairs had already piled up into a small hill.

“This one is different.”

“Your friend?”

“Not.”

“Your grandpa or your father?”

“How could it be? Stop kidding,” Wu Heng felt that she was deliberately mocking him.

But there was no evidence.

“Tell me more! I helped a lot!” Xiao Xiao did a circle in the air, landing on his shoulder.

The task wasn’t as difficult as he had imagined.

But Xiao Xiao did play a large part.

“He was a formidable person when he was alive, and we will turn him into a skeleton to enhance our strength,” Wu Heng gave a brief explanation.

“Oh.” The little girl gave a sound denoting her understanding.

Now that Xiao Xiao stopped speaking, Wu Heng, on the other hand, ordered the skeleton, “Move the corpse to the corridor.”

After all, the release of the Bone Manipulation Skill would cause the flesh to fall off, which is not very easy to clean up.

Two skeletons bent over to take the corpse outside.

They directly moved it into the corridor,

Put it down again, the flower cloth sheet that covered the body fell off.

Revealing the corpse, its skin had already turned white.

This corpse had been out for at least three or four days, so some decay had already set in.

But Wu Heng’s gaze fell on his chest and abdomen position.

A long and thin injury stitched with cotton threads connected the whole chest cavity.

What’s going on?

An autopsy on a dead person?

“Open the stitches,” Wu Heng said.

Basen, who was squatting next to him, took out a short blade from around his waist, and cut the cotton thread that held the wound together.

The stitched-up wound, bit by bit, opened up, revealing the empty thoracic cavity inside.

“Where are the internal organs?”

Wu Heng’s brow furrowed.

The corpse’s internal organs were gone..
