Ange kept planting vegetables until late at night. Albert couldn't bear it any longer and fell asleep with a lot of questions. He probably couldn't figure out in his life why the resurrected Holy Spirit was obsessed with growing vegetables.
After finishing his work, Ange found a remote place and activated the Earth Splitting Technique with his feet, which quickly sank into the sand and buried him.
In unfamiliar places, skeletons like to bury themselves, which is safer.
After it was buried properly, Ange's mind retracted, and after what felt like a long migration, Ange returned to his own body.
"Zobada! You are finally willing to come back. I thought you were dead." A group of people cheered around, among which Nigris's voice was the most prominent.
Ange looked back and saw that everyone was surrounding him with expressions of concern and inquiry...
"How is it? What did you see when you went there? Why did you stay so long? If you hadn't cast the quick-death halo, I would have thought you were dead. Are you farming over there? Isn't that right?"
Nigris asked quickly.
The witch became even more anxious and asked repeatedly: "Have you seen your Majesty? Have you seen your Majesty? Is your Majesty still alive?"
Ange shook his head: "Locke, soul, shrinking, ashes, consciousness dies."
Everyone was confused. Only Nigris understood it. It translated: "You mean, the node you sent to belongs to Locke? His soul shrank and his consciousness died? He turned into a gray skeleton.
Skeleton?”
Ange nodded hurriedly, this was the communication method he was familiar with.
"Is it Locke? Not His Majesty? How did Locke get there?" the witch was surprised.
"Of course His Majesty summoned him there. No need to ask, no wonder Locke's body will stay in the Palace of Rest. Let me just say, it can escape back to the Palace of Rest. How could the soul disappear? It turns out that the soul was sent to Your Majesty.
Where did you go?" Duroken clapped his big foot and said in annoyance.
The witch murmured with some disappointment: "Why did Your Majesty summon Locke? Why didn't you summon me? Am I not his most trusted child?"
The great sage took the opportunity to put his arm around the witch's shoulders and comforted her softly: "Because you have a more important mission, to protect His Majesty's body."
"Oh, yes, I almost forgot, my mission is more important." The witch cheered up.
"Then what? Where did you go? What was there? Is there anyone? How many? What are you farming for? What land? How big is it?..." Negris continued to ask, leading questions.
This is the communication method that Ange is most familiar with. You don’t have to think about what to say. He can just answer whatever Nigris asks. Even if he repeats each word, Nigris can understand it. It’s so comfortable.
Already.
After some exchanges, everyone was shocked by the information Ange revealed.
"Warlock's Endless Star Power Starburst Array? What Warlock? Alchemist?"
"Starburst method, is it a weapon that fires starbursts to kill us?"
"The Immortal Empire? The Immortal Empire established by His Majesty? You didn't ask, right? You didn't ask anything? Why did you go farming? Oops, I want to strangle you to death."
Nigris complained and wanted to strangle the skeleton: "Hurry up and project back to find that so-and-so Burt, right? Ask clearly. Do you know what you want to ask? I'll make a list for you."
"You, go together." Ange said.
"Ah? Me? Do you have a way to take me with you? I tried, but I can't attach myself to your mind." Nigris said.
Ange didn't explain, grabbed the little yellow book and stuffed it into the Palace of Rest.
But immediately, Nigris' thoughts were projected onto him, and he hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, in this situation, we may have to stay here for a long time. There is no death aura and energy here, so leave some for them."
The witch waved her hand: "No, no, no, the bag of soul crystals just now has allowed me to fully recover. I will survive for another thousand years..."
Before he finished speaking, Ange dug out more than a dozen bags of soul crystals and threw them aside. The witch couldn't help but pounce on them and changed her words: "I want to lie on it and sleep."
With a huge amount of soul crystals, who wants to endure the hardship? For the past thousand years, witches have basically relied on sleeping to survive.
"Also, when Ange casts the quick-death halo, it will be released on the body. I don't know if other magical spells will be like this. I will give it a try and pay attention here. If there is a magical effect, I will
Sometimes we can use magic to communicate simply."
After explaining, Ange pressed the Sombra body's shoulders again, shifted his mind, and then projected.
After it was projected to the opposite side, Ange concentrated and reached out to take it out.
Unprecedented resistance came from his hand. He struggled hard and took out a book of brass.
Negris said in shock: "You can actually take things out of the Palace of Rest? How did you do it? So miraculous? You are in a projection state now. This skeleton should not have the ability to penetrate the Palace of Rest.
.”
Ange responded: "Concentrate and be able to see and catch."
"Catch it again and show it to me," Nigris said hurriedly.
Ange shook his head: "I'm mentally disturbed, and I can't catch him again for half an hour."
"You can't concentrate right now. It will take about half an hour to recover?" Nigris understood.
Ange nodded, feeling relaxed and at ease in his heart.
Negris looked at the ground and said: "The loess desert has a loose structure, lack of water, and sparse vegetation. It is estimated that this desert cannot support many people."
He looked at the sky again and saw the huge man-made thing hanging in the sky: "That's the Starburst Array of Endless Star Power, right? It was built by a warlock? Go around and find that Abbott and ask what kind of warlock it is.
"
"By the way, hold me in your hands. Stop talking for a moment. I'll just open and close your mouth in coordination." Nigris said.
"Okay." Ange agreed quickly, it was great, he didn't have to think about the problem himself.
Walking towards the direction of the cave, as soon as they reached the entrance of the cave, Albert ran out sneakily and held her tightly in his arms. There was a bulging bulge there.
When he bumped into Ange, Abbott's face turned pale, his legs became weak, and he knelt down on the ground: "I...I...I found some gifts to honor you."
"Haha? Will he be complicit in bribery? Didn't you say that he only has one greedy lock?" Nigris asked in a low voice.
Ange tilted his head in confusion.
When he walked up to Albert, he had already taken out the things in his arms and raised them high above his head. They were all gold ornaments. They had no magic power and their only function was to sell them for money.
Nigris made a majestic voice: "What did you do when you got these things?"
Abbott trembled and said sadly: "No... no bread. I'm hungry. I... I want to exchange some for bread."
As soon as Nigris yelled, he explained everything without daring to talk about filial piety and the like.
Perhaps to increase his persuasiveness, his stomach growled.
Although he had asked Ange before, the fact that the Church of Light here was in such misery was still beyond Nigris' imagination.
The tombkeeper of the Holy Tomb in the Stone Chamber was so poor that he had to steal the funerary objects and sell them, just to exchange for bread?
But these gold ornaments must be at least hundreds of grams, right? How much bread is enough to buy?
Thinking of this, Nigris said: "Lead the way and buy bread. If you really want to buy bread, then I will forgive you on behalf of the Lord."
Abbott's eyes lit up and he hurriedly got up. He thought he was going to be finished. He was caught twice, but the Holy Spirit didn't even kill him?
The entrance of the cave faced east, but the direction Albert led the way was to the west. Going west, it was the same desolate desert, but with more low shrubs.
While walking along, Negris took the opportunity to ask: "Albert, that thing in the sky, you said it was built by a warlock, what kind of warlock?"
"Sir, it is the collective name for alchemists, elemental warlocks, potion warlocks, void warlocks, etc." Abbott responded.
Wait? That system is probably huge.
"What about the church? Why is it like this? Can't even get the money to buy bread for you?" Negris asked.
Speaking of this, Abbott became sad and sighed: "Yes, the church is getting worse year by year. There are fewer and fewer people who believe in it, and there are fewer and fewer offerings. Everyone has gone to believe in the immortal god.
.I don’t know the specific situation. I have been chosen as the tombkeeper since I was a child and have been guarding this secret stone cemetery. I have never left the loess desert."
While walking and talking, Nigris got a lot of information from Abbott.
The most powerful force in this plane is the Immortal Empire, which was established more than a thousand years ago. There was no Immortal Empire more than a thousand years ago. The most powerful ones at that time were the Warlock Alliance and the Church of Light.
The Church of Light is a force formed by devout believers who believe in light, but the Warlock Alliance is formed by atheists. The two sides are fighting against each other, and neither one can do anything to the other.
Until one day, the warlocks invented the Starburst Magic Circle, and all the gods of the Church of Light fell overnight. A fierce war broke out between the Warlock Alliance and the Church of Light.
In the war that lasted for decades, suddenly one day, some dead corpses stood up and attacked the Church of Light.
There are more and more of these corpses, and wherever they go, all the corpses of the past will be resurrected, and they will flow in all directions like a tide.
The Warlock Alliance was confused. They had never seen a corpse that moved in an organized manner. This was not in line with their worldview.
But the Church of Light reacted very quickly, as if it knew what it was, and responded quickly. All skeletons must have their heads chopped off, and all zombies must have their hearts chopped out. Light magic also has additional damage to undead creatures.
With city walls and passes, humans resisted the attack of the undead. Since then, the wilderness has become a world of the undead, and the cities have been filled with humans.
Originally, if things continued like this, a large number of humans would starve to death, and the crowded city could not support too many people. But unexpectedly, a few days later, people approached outside the city. They were people who had not had time to escape into the city before.
They were carefully pulled up from the city wall. From the mouths of these people, everyone got a shocking news that undead creatures do not attack ordinary people.
Some people who were not afraid of death went out and gave it a try, and sure enough, undead creatures did not attack ordinary people. During the day, they dug holes in dry places to sleep, and got up and wandered around at night. If they were not running around outside the city at night, they would not even be encountered.
If you occasionally dig holes and accidentally dig them, the skeletons will just stare at you with two empty eyes, and then they will have no choice but to pull up the surrounding soil and bury themselves again.
The only ones they can attack are those who wear bright armor and robes and use bright magic. As soon as they touch them, they will immediately get up from the ground and attack them in all directions, fearless of death, until they drown the opponent.
Hearing this, Nigris couldn't help but clapped his legs and exclaimed, and said to Ange in his soul: "Wonderful, your Majesty's move is so wonderful, it directly divides humans and the Church of Light into two groups."
"Human beings may not all be members of the church, nor may they be devout believers. They may either be trapped in the city and starve to death, or they may hide their identities and come out to farm and do business. As long as they take the step of hiding their identities, no matter how devout the believers are, they will also
Subtly, you get used to living without a church.”
"Over time, they will find that they can live well without the church, and the church will lose the foundation of faith and never recover. It's wonderful, it's wonderful." Negris was full of praise.
After walking for more than an hour, the two came to a rock pillar area. Some weathered rocks looked like pillars standing on the ground.
After careful identification, Abbott found a rock pillar and dug out a package from the pile of stones at the bottom of the pillar.
"Sir, you need to take off your armor, otherwise you will attract many bounty hunters." As he said this, he took off his priest's robe and put on a hunter's costume, covering his head and face, only revealing a pair of eyes.
Then he handed Ange a black robe, but there was nothing to cover his face.
Ange changed into a black robe, and Nigris took the opportunity to ask: "Isn't there a mask or something? Wouldn't it scare people to see you like this?"
"No, as a gray-bone priest, covering your face will attract attention." Abbott said: "Sir, please do not reveal any power or signs related to light. Although this place is very remote, the bounty is
Hunters are everywhere, so be careful."
If a skeleton doesn't cover its face, it won't attract attention, but if it covers its face, it will attract attention? What's the logic?
After passing through the rock pillar area, it didn't take long to arrive at a small town. When he walked into the town, Nigris understood what it meant.
Half of the moving things in the entire town are undead.
At the gate of the town, two skeletal skeleton guards carried spears and hung themselves on the railing. They boredly broke off their own finger bones, took them back, broke them off, and took them back.
When they saw someone approaching, they raised their heads. When they saw Abbott, they didn't react at all. When they saw Ange, they suddenly became excited and hurriedly got off the railing and stood at attention with their heads held high.
It wasn't until Ange entered the town that they relaxed and hung themselves up again.
Nigris was shocked: "Are the gray skeletons so smart? Are they intelligent? Are they actually intelligent?"
Nigris has only seen one intelligent gray-bone skeleton, and that is Ange. How come the two gray-bone skeletons guarding the gate now behave in such a humane manner?
However, it is certain of one thing. This so-called Immortal Empire must have been established by the Immortal King, because it saw the harmonious coexistence of humans and undead creatures in the town, which was exactly the same as before the World Transfer Station stopped operating.
Abbott replaced his gold jewelry as quickly as possible, bought a large bag of black bread as hard as a rock, and then left the town.
"How long will it take for you to eat so much brown bread?" Nigris asked in confusion.
Black bread is thick, hard, and unpalatable to death, but if you're super hungry, basically a piece of brown bread, toasted, broken into pieces, and mixed into soup can feed a family of five for a day.
The big bag that Abbott bought was enough for him to eat for at least two months.
Abbott shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't eat it myself."
After walking for a few minutes outside the town, we came to a cave area. A little head popped out of the cave. When he saw Albert, he immediately shouted in surprise: "Uncle Abbott! Uncle Abbott, it's Uncle Abbott."
, uncle is here, uncle is fine."
Except for the first exclamation, all the others shouted towards the cave. Soon, five or six children from the cave ran out and ran towards Abbott.
Negris asked doubtfully: "You repeatedly take things from the stone room, is it just to buy food for these children?"
Abbott nodded guiltily.
"Then you still think you are greedy?" Nigris was surprised.
Abbott was stunned for a moment: "Isn't this greed? I got it secretly, and I also ate it."
"Greedy ass, you are considered a saint, a saint." Nigris said.
When Negris spoke, Ange would open and close his mouth in harmony. When Negris repeated 'Saints', he felt it was right, so he also made a sound: "Saints."
