Remedios couldn't help but frown. Neia on the side also felt that it was too outrageous to only let two dwarves do the repairing of the road.
"Repairing the road? Just two people?" Remedios asked doubtfully.
"It's just us. After all, His Majesty the Sorcerer King has lent us some manpower. All we have to do is stand by and guide." The dwarf said carelessly.
"What about the manpower?" Remedios looked around in confusion. The only people present were the two dwarves and some passers-by who were passing by in a hurry.
"Oh, they went to move materials, here they come." The dwarf pointed to the carriage driving this way in the distance and said.
Remedios and Neia naturally looked in the direction pointed by the dwarf. They had seen several carriages pulled by a horse-shaped undead emitting mist before.
The carriage is full of skeletons...
Everyone present took a breath, although the paladins present with such skeletons, including Neia, could still defeat them, as long as there were not many of them.
However, these carriages were filled with skeletons, and Neia also noticed that these skeletons seemed to be holding tools and cut stones in their hands.
"These are the manpower lent to us by His Majesty the Sorcerer King. I didn't expect the undead to be so useful? What's wrong with you guys?" Another dwarf saw the convoy approaching and immediately came over to arrange work for the skeletons.
The dwarf in front of him still remained where he was.
"No, um... you are using the undead? Can you command these undead?" Remedios asked in confusion as he watched another dwarf giving orders to the skeletons.
"Isn't this something surprising? Oh! I forgot that this is your first time here. This is a very common thing in the Sorcerous Kingdom. I heard that these undead are also very useful in other places. As long as
Just give an order and it's all done, think about it! The undead don't need to rest or eat, and they can still understand our words and do things according to our requirements. What a perfect labor force this is! Even my country is here now
The undead are slowly being introduced, oh! It is said that several big countries are also introducing the undead, and I am worried whether the project here will be affected." The dwarf answered cheerfully without any taboo, and also
Additional information is given.
"Um...you mean it's not just your dwarf country that has introduced the undead? There are other countries too?" Remedios's expression became even worse.
"Yes, it is said that the Bahas Empire and the Dragon Kingdom have introduced a lot of them? I saw a large number of them being sent out a few days ago. I don't know where they were sent," the dwarf said.
"That's it...Thank you for clarifying my doubts. May I ask where you live?" Remedios adjusted his mentality and continued to seek information on this dwarf.
"Me? My companions and I all live in the demi-human area." The dwarf was not at all defensive and answered directly.
"Demihuman area?" Remedios continued to ask.
"Yes, that area used to be a slum in this city, but His Majesty the Sorcerer King demolished it. I was originally called here to be mainly responsible for the construction and renovation of that area, but the project there has been completed, and now
I am specifically responsible for the reconstruction of streets and roads.”
"I see, but since it was originally a slum, where did the poor people go after they were demolished?" Remedios asked. Neia understood what Remedios wanted to know, and when Remedios asked
When asked this question, the eyes of the paladins all fell on the skeletons who were busy working.
"I don't know the specific details, but I heard that he was sent to other uninhabited abandoned villages. It is said that His Majesty the Sorcerer King renovated the abandoned villages and then gave them to the poor along with the land. They said that he was also sent to other abandoned villages.
The undead are used to work, so the food here is quite cheap." The dwarf said.
"Cheap is not the key. The key is that this country has many delicious and delicious novelties! It's a big win to have us come here." Another dwarf who had arranged the work came over and started talking.
"Finally...can you tell me what the name of this horse-shaped undead is?" Remedios asked a question that surprised Neia. Neia knew this leader very well, what kind of monsters, characteristics, etc., but this
It's a question that the group leader is least good at and doesn't care about. It's naturally strange to suddenly ask such a question.
"I don't know, but it doesn't matter if I don't know the name. Anyway, this thing is very powerful and can pull many things. It is also obedient and very useful." The dwarf replied.
"That's it, thank you." After saying that, Remedios took out a small purse and handed it to the dwarf. The dwarf didn't have the strange reaction of the guard, but accepted it very happily, and then shouted for extra lunch.
What.
Everyone mounted their horses and continued to move forward. As soon as they got on their horses, Gustavo asked Neia's question just now.
"Captain Remedios, why are you suddenly interested in that horse-shaped undead monster?" Gustavo asked.
"Isn't this because of you? I noticed just now that your face changed after seeing this horse-shaped undead monster." Remedios replied.
"Is that so? Then it's okay." Gustavo smiled and said nothing.
"Then do you know what that monster is called?" This made Remedios even more concerned.
"Uh... I have some clues, but that thing is not an undead monster that can be controlled. I must have made a mistake." Gustavo said.
"Since you said that, you must have made a mistake." Remedios planned to end the topic.
"I wonder what that kind of horse is called?" Neia was also very interested in that kind of horse-shaped undead, and she whispered like she was talking to herself.
"That kind of horse has a name that doesn't match its appearance. It's called Soul Eater." Yi Li said in a very calm tone.
"...Soul Eater???" Gustavo's face turned pale when he heard this word, and he tightened the reins, almost falling off his horse.
"Yes, it is indeed called this unlovable name. What's wrong?" Yi Li turned around and asked.
"No...impossible!! Impossible! Sir Yili, are you mistaken?" Gustavo said very nervously.
"Hey! What on earth is a Soul Eater? Explain it to me." Remedios couldn't sit still when he saw Gustavo being so nervous.
"I'm not mistaken." Yi Li replied disapprovingly.
"Hey! Gustavo, please explain." Remedios repeated very displeasedly.
"Captain... now is not the time to talk about this matter. I will explain it to you slowly after you settle down." Gustavo calmed down a little, then turned back and glanced at the paladins who were also confused behind him.
, said to Remedios.
"Okay, then you have to explain it to me in a while." Remedios nodded as if he understood.
Soul Eater? Neia repeated this term in her heart. She had never heard of it in her own mind. With a name that didn’t sound like a fuel-saving lamp, she could only wait for Gustavo’s deputy commander for a while.
Have you solved the problem for yourself?
But since Yili knows? How about asking Yili? Neia thought, but Neia gave up the idea as soon as she had it, and she couldn't make any more trouble.
