Something's wrong with my undead

Chapter 436 That tree looks angry

"I am not sure."

Crow Eyes shook his head, his red eyes looking at the gloomy night, full of worry.

"There has never been such a precedent before..."

Daryl asked curiously: "Has the dragon never appeared before? Then how do you know this is a dragon scale?"

Shen Lin explained for him: "It is true that the dragon never shows up, but the senior leaders of the Holy Healing Society have contacts with the mysterious Dragon Island, and they can receive a batch of dragon blood every ten years to make holy healing potions. In addition, dragon scales, The products of dragon claws and teeth are also important supplies.”

Daryl was surprised: "Does the Holy Healing Society also have its own weapons?"

"No." Shen Lin shook his head: "That's for buying your life."

"Buy your life?" Daryl couldn't help but be stunned: "What does 'buy your life' mean?"

Crow's Eye: "Three hundred and twenty years ago, the investment department of the Lion King Trading Company took a fancy to the Lasseta settlement in southern Rocamousen. It was said that a large ruins were buried there. On the grounds of protecting the ancient ruins, they moved More than 50 Laseta people were gathered together and placed in animal pens. In less than a year, half of the old, weak, women, and children died due to plague and material shortages. It was the Holy Healing Society who used 15 dragon scales and dragons. Ya bought the remaining Laceta people."

Daryl was stunned.

The Lasseta are a slender, shorter people with fangs, claws, tails, and horny bodies.

It is said that they are the descendants of Rocamu orcs and elves, and are good at digging. However, they were rejected by the dwarves because they did not believe in the Mother of the Earth. When the Zanluo Plateau fell into civil strife, they fled from the west to the forest.

The Laseta people are now gathered in the Rockamu Autonomous Region next to Mercury City, and Daryl has often interacted with these people.

But he had never heard of such a thing...

He instinctively thought - don't the Velitas people care?
But in the next second, he realized that this was the Velitas people’s own business.

"They never said this in the magic network broadcast... I thought only dwarves could do this kind of thing." He murmured.

He had often heard on the radio that the dwarves expelled the elves in order to develop the ruins.

Although the three elves have an indifferent sense of belonging to the "elves" group, this behavior of the dwarves is one of the few that can make the three of them share the same hatred.

At least half of the elven prejudice against dwarves is due to this propaganda.

"Do you think the elves have done less?" Shen Lin sneered: "The reason why the Lasseta people were driven to the southern Rockcamousn is because you pioneers invaded the northern Rockcamousn and then brought the blight with them. passed."

Daryl was unconvinced and said: "At least we didn't keep them in captivity like livestock."

Crow's Eye and Deep Forest ignored him, as if they didn't want to waste any time on this issue.

Daryl calmed down his thoughts, asked someone to carefully put away the shield, and then called Ed.

He was originally showing the impending disaster to the nobles at the Lord's Mansion, but was suddenly informed by Ed of the unusual movement here, and then rushed over in a hurry.

Because this kid's recent performance was too dazzling, he didn't even have time to ask more about the source of the information.

"I need an explanation," he said.

At the instruction of catching the sheep, Lavan did not respond in the group.

This is to make Ed act more realistic.

What is acting?

Even I don’t know that I am acting, this is acting!

Sure enough, Ed was scratching his head anxiously now - he didn't know what Lavan's situation was.

Maybe Abram took him and moved him, or maybe he threw his body into the smelly ditch.

One person had already died during this trip to Nibra City, and he didn't want to lose his companion again.

But he hadn't lost his mind yet, and he quickly came up with the explanation he had prepared:
"It's Aurora. She found that Abram and others reacted very strangely in the theater, and their behavior became even more abnormal after that."

"Weird reaction?" Daryl was shocked: "When?"

"A bunch of them were nervous when you mentioned the 'Soul Forge'."

Daryl seemed to realize something suddenly and hurriedly took a list from his subordinates.

Everyone who did not go to the City Lord's Mansion with him was recorded. Now looking at the names of these people, a bold idea is brewing in his mind.

"Abram, Baron Red Willow, Sir Rockolos...that's it! I know!"

Daryl arranged for a group of people to thoroughly search the club and hurriedly led a large force straight to the warehouse district on the outskirts of the city. These people are all nobles or businessmen related to the ore trade. If it is magic ore used to arrange the soul furnace array, there must be special storage equipment in the warehouse.

Seeing that he was not suspected, Ed was slightly relieved.

At this time, there was sudden movement in the tea room.

[Lawan]: Brothers, I didn’t die, it was the instructors who saved me!
[Todd]: The instructors are back again?
[Ed]: Great...you kid scared me!
Aurora didn't speak, most likely they were chatting directly in private.

[Ravan]: I am at Abram’s house. Master Heine has changed the goal of this battle. We must try our best to obtain technology related to the soul furnace. Abram has the production drawings of the magic circle components here. When you come down, you need to go to the manor to copy the magic circle. The instructors asked me to ask how the group of nobles who went to watch the scene were doing. Are they willing to pay?
[Ed]: I’m afraid it’s difficult. Although the nobles saw the tree moving in a small area with their own eyes, they did not think it was harmful. Instead, they thought it was a trick by the royal family to force them to join their side.

[Ravan]: It’s strange. Even if they are like this, don’t they still doubt the Velitas people? What if Abram were to testify?

[Ed]: Compared to the Velitas people, they distrust the royal family and the Council of Elders even less. After all, in the minds of the locals, the mages are as noble as the first snow in winter and will not do such a thing that is in no way harmful to themselves. Useless things.

[Ed]: As for Abram, even if he comes forward to testify, it won’t have much impact. Instead, it will make people think that this is another layer of conspiracy... because no one knows yet that the mages want to take advantage of this subversion. What can be gained, if there is no purpose, can only be to make them lose their immunity by proving that 'the Velitas are not that noble' - you see, this is back to the original problem.

[Lavan]: Is it so difficult... So why do you elves trust the Velitas so much?

Ed was speechless for a moment.

Before joining McCalla, he had never doubted the Velitas.

But after joining McCalla, he lost the qualification to answer this question...

Because he has begun to doubt.

Rationality seems to always be two extremes of excess and deficiency, rarely just the right amount.

Suddenly, Ravan started typing again.

He seemed to relay this troublesome situation to the instructors, and then got some new ideas:
【Lavan】: So you are on your way to the outskirts of the city, right?

【Ed】：Yes.

[Lavan]: In other words, there are no people near the manor?

Ed was shocked!
[Ed]: What are you going to do?
[Todd]: What are you going to do?
[Ravan]: It’s not me. The sheep-catching instructor said that he must teach the naive locals some profound lessons, so that they can obediently take out the charging stones and charge Berio...

[Todd]: So crazy? When does it start and can I come along?

[Lawan]: In half an hour at most, City Lord’s Mansion, come quickly, you’re here and send me a message!

[Todd]: Good brother! wait for me!

Ed couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it. These two lunatics really deserved to be friends...

He looked at Daryl's back and couldn't help but pray for this guy silently.

——I hope his blood pressure isn’t too high.

Just when they arrived at the outskirts of the city, a long roar suddenly came from the direction of the city center.

The sound was like blowing a huge and ancient horn. It started out as a low hum, like the wind sweeping through the forest tops, and gradually became like a herd of beasts galloping. Then the mountains roared and the tsunami roared, and the rolling torrent carried everything down from the heights.

"Ugh——"

Shen Lin's expression suddenly changed: "That's the kind of movement that only war-level ancient tree guards can make!"

Crow Eyes was also surprised: "What's going on? Is that Zanluo man lying? Why did the tree move suddenly?"

Ed quickly added: "Could it be that we brought too many people to see it today, so..."

When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but feel that this made sense.

One ant would not be taken seriously, but a group of ants would be different.

Daryl wanted to die.

He doesn't understand why this kind of thing always happens to him...

Others who have been on duty in a city for fifty years can only write two and a half pages in their diary. He has been here for less than a year. First, there was an incident at the Blight Scar, then the Void Disaster, and then the invasion of strange beasts...

He gritted his teeth and said: "Notify the whole city to enter a wartime state, first-level response!"
