Something's wrong with my undead

Chapter 172 Dead?

At dawn, Bedivere had already evacuated with a large force.

They were stationed at an abandoned stronghold not far to the west.

This was once an outpost of the Green Leaves Court, but it was quickly abandoned as blight spread and supplies became scarce.

At this time, supplies from Greenleaf Town are continuously being sent here.

Previously, while the fog in the flower disaster area had basically dissipated, two airships took people deep into the hinterland at the speed of light and packed up all the loot.

Be it piranha or boss-level bugs, even if these powerful creatures die, their bodies will still be filled with pollution. Logically speaking, it is difficult to install an airship.

But the Fire Bronze Horn is different.

Last time, most of the deck was damaged by a dung truck, and there was no time to repair it. Now it happens to be used to transport these trophies, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Now Kaana is the only boss left in the Blight Scar, but the bugs and blight beasts have not yet been completely eliminated.

According to the plot in the game, even if the copy is completed, the subsequent cleanup will take less than half a year.

So there is no rush, you have to take your time.

This is also a good time to train.

After arranging the logistics, the small airship with enough "sincerity" carried the three skeletons and Hui Yue deep into the insect-stricken area, and met Heine who was rushing there in Huiyu.

……

Insect-infested areas.

The leader, known as Kaana the Insect Mother, is a beautiful half-human, half-insect creature.

Her upper body is a plump female body, with transparent wings on her back. Her exposed skin is covered with sky-blue phosphorus lines, reflecting a dreamy luster.

There was something on her head that she couldn't tell whether it was hair, tentacles, or some kind of slender sarcoma.

These things naturally drooped, covering the vital points, and hung down to the slender waist.

As for the waist below...it is a mountain of flesh.

The huge insect belly, which is three to four meters high, is like a granary. It has a faint texture of light lake blue on the top. The lower end is soaked in a pool of waxy jelly and is still contracting and expanding rhythmically.

At this time, everyone is in a spacious tree house called the "boss room" by players.

Heine stood on a high platform, eye level with Kaana.

They had an unimpeded journey, and the other party completely gave up resistance.

According to players’ discussions, this boss, known as Bug Mom, basically only summons mobs throughout the game.

Different from normal production, her "birth" during battle will consume extra life force.

When the life force is exhausted, the boss battle will be over.

But this time, this link was obviously skipped.

Heine did not talk nonsense and explained the current situation clearly in a few words.

Kaana was surprisingly calm, with no hint of anger in her white-less black eyes.

It looks like there is a clear sense of stupidity...

"So, you are here to find the third communication station?"

Her voice sounded extraordinarily gentle, exuding the same maternal brilliance as her face.

But it doesn’t quite match the temperament.

"Yes." Heine nodded.

The communication station in the beast-stricken area was also purified by him.

Like the one in the flower disaster area, it was also a huge spherical Yuanling magic circle.

Then when he followed the ash threads in the insect-infested area to the door, he found that all the black threads were connected to Kaana.

"Is what you are looking for a silver ball?" she asked.

"……Yes."

Heine had a bad feeling.

“That thing became one with me a long time ago.”

really……

“That’s what makes our home different from the other two.”

Kaana said slowly: "Through that thing, I have established a connection with each of my children. Although they are also in contact with the other two communication towers, as long as they are here, they will definitely listen to me."

She smiled at Heine.

"Although I can't control those little guys, I can feel that they like you very much, and this emotion seems to have affected me... so I also like you very much."

Heine was stared at so much that chills ran down his back.

No wonder I couldn't feel any Yuanling, and she was actually locked up with her body...

Wait, doesn’t that mean she’s also a psychic! ?

"Can you also hear Yuan Ling's voice?" he asked.

"Voice?" Kaana shook her head.

"No, I just feel a slight emotion."

It seems that the Yuanling affinity is not very high.

But then there is a problem.

Now that the three communication stations have been purified, the road to the center in the game has also been opened.

Why not now?

Could it be said that Kaana is also a kind of pollution to the magic circle?

"Do you know Quelkus?" Heine asked again.

"Quelkus?" Kaana nodded: "Of course I remember, this is a very important name. My ancestors followed it to come here."

Sure enough there is something!

As soon as Heine pricked up his ears to listen carefully, he heard the other party say:

"...but it has been dead for a long time, why did you suddenly mention it?"

"died?"

Heine was stunned.

"How did you die? When did it happen?"

Kaana looked thoughtful: "Is it time... maybe dozens or a hundred snow seasons ago? I was not smart at that time and couldn't remember so many things.

“All I remember is that this strange group of people came and built the building you’re looking for around here, and it’s been talking to us less and less since then.

"Then one day, it summoned us and told us that he was going to die, and everyone's life would be very sad in the future. But if we believed in him, we could make a contract with him, so that even if we died, we wouldn't be caught and eaten by that strange bird. ”

She seemed to still have some lingering fears when it came to the "strange bird".

It's obviously Kaguyu.

"What contract?" Heine asked.

"We all get a piece of its soul, and after that, we become smarter and can remember more and understand more things."

Heine was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Is the process of concluding the contract a summoning ceremony? Do you want to recite a spell on its corpse?"

Kaana tilted her head.

"How do you know? Do you know that spell? It's..."

“Ego sum te peto et uidere queo…”

They both spoke at the same time.

The same.

This is the summoning spell of the Necromancer.

"Dead things can still see life, and the spirits of the dead are resurrected and close to me."

Heine breathed a sigh of relief.

suddenly see the light.

"I see..." he murmured.

...

Zhu Sheep: "Jijijiji, so what does he understand? Where is the half-elf who has always been in the human area? Please translate and translate!"

The remaining two people all echoed: "Mr. Sa, speak!"

Mr. Sa: "How the hell do I know this...Besides, all I read in the fandom area are the books of Chongma and Daomei. Who reads the plot?"

"what?"

"what?"

"what?"

...

Fortunately, the eldest sister took action at the critical moment.

Hui Yue couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "What are you talking about?"

Heine explained: “After the mages from the Academy of Truth came here to build a communication station, Quelkus soon died.

"So it called together these creatures that had been parasitic on itself all year round and taught them necromancy.

"When death comes, it will divide its soul and let each of them occupy a part."

Hui Yue frowned when she heard this: "So, the souls we saw running towards the center..."

"Yes." Heine nodded: "That's the return of Quelkus's soul. That's generally true. I haven't figured out the details yet. After all, consciousness and soul quality cannot be separated...wait..."

Heine suddenly remembered a person's name.

Co-founder of the School of Transfiguration

Barry Gitiller's Initiator

Hunter, tree shepherd, and necromancer.

Also know Quelkus...

"I think I know!"
