Something's wrong with my undead

Chapter 21 Mourning Ceremony
Strictly speaking, this is a 4-on-3 battle.

Even the number of people is unfair, not to mention the huge differences in individual combat qualities...

So it ended like a storm.

Two of the three elves were killed and one was injured. The experience was like a swallow returning to its nest, jingling into Heine's body.

His chest felt hot, and he had a subtle feeling, as if he would soon be able to level up his skeleton again.

With his last experience at the Haunted Farm and his familiarity with various game settings, Heine also realized something.

He can assign experience to summons, but some way is needed.

If the method has not yet been mastered, it can only be used in times of crisis. This is more like a stress instinct.

As for his own upgrade, there is also a guess.

Maybe until all his skeletons catch up to his own level, the experience he gained won't be able to help him level up.

He shook his head to clear his random thoughts, and pressed the electric shock staff against the forehead of the only remaining female elf.

The opponent was the swordsman who rushed towards him in the first place.

I thought he was a brave guy, but I didn't expect that he was scared out of his mind at this moment, and there was a pool of smelly water stains under his body.

She was the one who cursed the most viciously during the battle and was also the first to try to escape. She was shot in the crook of the calf by Mr. Sa with an arrow.

"Tell me who you are and what you are doing here."

"I...we, we are the scouts of the Whispering Forest..."

Mr. Sa wondered: "Can't we understand what others are saying?"

In fact, he should have discovered this problem last night, but he had not yet accepted his status as a time traveler.

Zhu Sheep: "We can only understand Heine's words. To be precise, we know what he is saying. The language is still incomprehensible."

"What a pity. I still want to hear what lies this elf will tell. None of the elves in Cuiye Court are honest."

Upon hearing this, Heine directly interrupted the female elf's intermittent explanation.

"I advise you not to lie. It will do you no good."

The female elf suddenly turned pale.

"I...I didn't lie...ahhhh——"

A bone spear pierced her thigh, pinning her to the ground.

"I said, this won't do you any good."

Heine pinched the other person's smooth chin.

"It's okay if you don't answer. I know who commissioned you.

“I’m not going to kill you either, but I’m angry.

"I will nail you here, like a tree, and you will not bleed dry, but you will have a few more white branches..."

The elf trembled even more:
"It's Jianglu, Lord Jianglu! She asked us to take you into the forest and trap you! Please spare me... I will never lie again..."

……

After a few minutes, Heine, who had received enough information, kept his promise.

Instead of killing her, he nailed her to the ground with a bone spear.

The lifeless energy infested the wound and the blood was almost clotted. She wasn't going to bleed to death—not anytime soon.

Then he asked Mr. Sa to "transcend" the corpses of the two deceased people just like he did with the first elf.

He had heard three people mention the words "soul of the forest" before. In addition, he seemed to be able to sense that he was being spied on and monitored by the forest, so he couldn't do things like stripping dead people of their clothes.

The same principle also includes killing prisoners, so this elf swordsman survived.

He just took the weapons of the three as trophies, especially the sword that would burst into flames when activated.

Just as he guessed, Jiang Lu returned to Cuiyeting after leaving the hunting ground yesterday to issue a commission, requesting surveillance and delaying Heine as much as possible.

She also hinted in the mission not to kill anyone.

On the one hand, this is to protect the person receiving the commission, and on the other hand, I am still curious about Teacher Xia, a skeleton with solid basic skills.

She wondered how Heine did it.

It seems that Cuiye Court is really short of people.

This organization was not as hierarchical or hierarchical as he had imagined.

It is more like an organization similar to a mercenary association.

Jiang Lu issued a commission, and these four people accepted the commission, ignored Jiang Lu's reminder, and decided to kill the weak necromancer directly.

Because we couldn't take action within the viscounty territory, we started to lure the enemy deeper.

Heine fired a distress flare for her before leaving, but by then the elf had already passed out due to pain and fear.

Half an hour later, a gray four-winged giant bird landed here.

The three elves fell off the back of the bird and began to rescue with solemn expressions.

The leader of the elf is obviously older, and his hair and beard are curly dark green, like moss.

He raised his hand to summon vines to immobilize the survivor's figure, then dispersed some of the bone spears to free her body, and then the formal treatment began.

The remaining two were collecting the remains of the deceased.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

"Is... is it a memorial ceremony?"

"What?" The complete mourning ceremony refers to the life and death battle of the wood elf archer, including this part of the etiquette.

The victor is required to place the body of the vanquished under the nearest tree, with his hands protecting his heart.

For an ancient ethnic group that believes in nature, the sense of ritual is as indispensable as breathing.

"what are you guys saying?"

After taking care of the survivors' injuries, Linumu walked over with a frown.

"Nurse Linumu, look at this."

"This is a etiquette that only the wood elves in the Mourning Wood will use."

The elf's voice became quieter and quieter.

He suddenly remembered that someone had said that the Linumu head nurse in front of him had thin wood elf blood in his body, so his healing spells were better than others, and he was more favored by the souls of plants and trees.

"Wood elves?"

Linumu looked at the two corpses, and suddenly looked up into the forest thoughtfully.

Sure enough, he found a mark on a tree trunk.

He was a little surprised. How could anyone in the McCalla Mountains know such an ancient symbol?

This place is obviously thousands of kilometers away from Mourning Wood Forest...

"You stay here."

He followed the mark into the forest and came to Daken's body.

After leaning over to check, he put his fingers on Daken's forehead and recited a difficult spell in his mouth.

What responded to him was a ball of emerald green light.

It emerged from the tree next to Daken. It seemed to have some kind of spirituality. It bounced and landed on Linumu's shoulder, rubbing his face.

Linumu's dark green eyebrows knitted together.

Even more incomprehensible...

It was obviously the killing caused by the necromancer, and it was obviously cruel to the living, but it was uncharacteristically not desecrating the corpse, and the soul of the vegetation was not angry...

Even the defeated were treated with ancient etiquette.

Why is this person so stubborn? ? ?

……

On the other side, when Heine rushed to the town, Arthur had already set off with his people.

As the most powerful man in Ebony Town, Arthur would naturally not care about the assistance of a necromancer who failed to graduate from the Boneyard.

Although George admired Heine, he was just an ordinary person.

His comments were not worth mentioning in Arthur's opinion.

Maybe it was the words he said yesterday that made him think that Heine had some brains - only if he had brains, so he was valued only through words.

"I was looked down upon."

Heine sighed and got into the carriage lent to him by the lord.

He was not in a hurry to set off, but went straight to the Silver Market.

He put three trophies on consignment at the Lion King Trading House. Unfortunately, the valuation of these three items was only 2 gold coins, of which the sword accounted for 1.5 gold coins.

What surprised him was that this thing was not an enchanted weapon...

He also bought some decent arrows.

"The first-level magic-breaking arrow costs 2 gold coins per arrow. Five arrows cost 10 gold coins...

"The first-level air-breaking arrow costs 2.5 gold coins per arrow, and two arrows cost 5 gold coins...

"There are 15 silent arrows in each group, three groups totaling 3 gold...

"There are 10 armor-piercing arrows in each group. Three groups total 1 gold and 50 silver..."

Every gold coin Heine spends is a favorability gift for Mr. Sa.

His favorability towards Heine gradually increased, and he couldn't help but admire:

"Do you two brothers usually fight such rich battles?"

Teacher Xia: "That's not true. The main reason is that we brothers have no place to spend money..."

Mr. Sa thought about it and thought so.

As a time traveler, he brings with him the most important thing for a hunter - an accurate head.

He is a free-mode player in the game, and he can hit the target without any need for archery assistance. This is already very shameless.

And this profession is even more shameless in the early stage - it can make up for the lack of skills, or even excess, by filling up the enchanted arrows.

Krypton gold is power!

But the other two are different.

Without skills, they are no different from ordinary soldiers.

"Haha, dagger warrior, shield warrior!"

"...You almost got it!!"
