Chapter 96: The Drought Demon
As the talisman water was used up, the soldiers in the courtyard, who had been blinded by the ghosts, gradually regained consciousness one by one. Seeing the scene before them, they were all terrified.
The zombie official wearing a tattered robe and covered in hair was filled with malevolence and sorrow on his face.
These robust soldiers were excellent material for dried corpses and yin-nourishing grounds; they could not be allowed to all awaken.
He immediately ordered the dried corpses to swarm forward.
More than a dozen soldiers on the edge were instantly pinned to the ground.
Nearby, Tang Youchen, without much effort, confidently mouthed a name to the others: Hei Ziming.
To train an army, a large number of qualified officers are needed first; even the Bahama Corporation could not help with this. Fortunately, with support from the United States and through the National Rifle Association—a civilian organization—Chris Bart secured nearly a hundred qualified officers, which greatly propelled the development of Haiti’s military.
Unfortunately, the situation was still unfavorable. If before the Qing Empire was indifferent toward Li Mu, now Li Mu was likely on the Qing Empire’s hit list. Should he dare return, the Qing Empire would probably execute him immediately, despite American pressure.
“It’s hard to say now. If Bernap steps down, the successor could be Burnside or Sherman. It depends on the President’s decision,” Benjamin spoke candidly, revealing all he knew.
“I don’t know either. Maybe he’s afraid of being recognized...” Si Junhao smiled bitterly.
“Don’t touch me.” She took a deep breath, grabbed her bag, and hurried out awkwardly, as if fearing he would chase after her.
Bo Yin never fulfilled my request, which made me feel he was being unreasonable since he had clearly promised earlier.
Outside, Zhao Xu confronted Lian Heng. When Feng Ming left, he politely chose not to disturb them and climbed over the wall instead.
Fortunately, Mu Ziqing was already familiar with Mu Xiangdong’s attitude, so she calmly picked up the newspaper and glanced at it again.
“I’m fine. You live your life well!” Ai Mu mumbled carelessly and hurried away, afraid he might suddenly go mad and act recklessly toward her.
By then, he would be able to use the power of the heavenly tribulation to give the three Suanliao members a huge surprise.
Seeing Xiao’er intending to help Qin Ming, Xiaotian’s wolf-like eyes flickered with displeasure.
Klotho Kataks, upon hearing Davis explain in detail how to govern subordinates for the first time, completely refreshed his understanding of politics. He fell into deep thought, his mind somewhat dazed.
He thought the Tuoba aristocracy approached him to leverage his status for matters, but unexpectedly, they asked for money, which took him by surprise.
The others did not know what Li Cheng had done, but Li Cheng’s exhaustion was genuine, not feigned. Thus, the group was only puzzled but did not question him.
The terrifying roar of the dragon caused the martial artists present to turn pale, a primal fear gripping their souls, making them tremble involuntarily.
However, the necromancer’s cultivation methods were not suitable for humans. Although the three ancestors of humanity possessed the cultivation level of Great Dao Golden Immortals and held great prestige among humans, their vision and realm were too limited compared to the entire primordial world. Without a proper mentor, it was unlikely they could find a heritage technique for humanity.
After 170 oarsmen took their positions, the boatswain paced the corridor inside the cabin. He was responsible for supervising the oarsmen, maintaining rowing order, and boosting their morale.
Charlize Theron felt that she would live under the shadow of chicken breast for an entire month and vowed never to touch it again.
He watched quietly until he passed the city gate, then turned back to gaze sorrowfully at his birthplace.
In the Eastern Palace, Li Chengqian did not rush to rest. He was aware of the earlier commotion in Chang’an City but trusted that someone was trying to determine whether his plan had succeeded.
