~13 min read 2,401 words

"Then let's start quickly." Yun Mu looked at Fen Yege: "After saying so much, the remaining remains of that Beastkin god should all be with you, right?"

After all, this was the first step of the plan; Fen Yege couldn't possibly let them go find the Beastkin god's remains themselves.

"Hmm, about that." However, after hearing her words, Fen Yege smiled embarrassedly: "I'm afraid I have to disappoint you; those remains are not on me."

"Wait, don't be in such a rush, hear me out!" Seeing the undisguised murderous intent in everyone's eyes, Fen Yege hurriedly raised his hands and said: "I know their location, you just need to dig that thing out."

Hearing this, the expressions on everyone's faces softened significantly, but "Since you know the location, why didn't you take it yourself?" Brenna spoke up at this moment.

"Ahem, there's nothing to be done about that." Fen Yege struck a pose of surrender: "The speed at which that thing corrodes gods is very fast."

"If it finds a new suitable vessel to perform a Resurrection, it would be troublesome."

"To be safe, I have never touched that thing."

"Is that really so?" Yun Mu looked at him with some suspicion.

Fen Yege's explanation sounded reasonably plausible, but upon closer thought, one would feel there were many problems.

Intuition told Yun Mu that he had done this on purpose; as for the reason, she wasn't very clear either.

"Speaking of which," just then, she suddenly remembered the news she had heard earlier from that Wolf-kin officer: "The Federation's connection to the Magic Fountain seems to have been severed; do you have any clues?"

The Magic Fountain should have been built after Fen Yege received the heritage of the Orc Empire; logically speaking, he should know the situation there.

"Does such a question even need asking? Naturally, it was disconnected by me." Hearing her words, Fen Yege chuckled: "If I didn't cut off the magic supply, do you guess those councilors would take action?"

"Uh, this, it's hard to say." Yun Mu's understanding of the Federation wasn't very deep, but for some reason, upon hearing this sentence from Fen Yege, she couldn't think of any reason to refute it.

Ah, as expected, the guys in the Federation are all a bunch of trash, meow.

"Fine, let's not talk about this then." Yun Mu pointed to Elena's body lying on the laboratory table not far away: "You have to resolve this matter."

"Hmm, let me take a look." Fen Yege stroked his chin and leaned close to Elena's body, then raised an eyebrow: "Good craftsmanship, this part of the structure... is it Alchemy?"

"Is it powered by Magic Energy?... Hmm, how about this." Fen Yege raised his hand to take a book from the void, then tossed it to Brenna.

"As compensation for the God Bone matter, this book, 'Material Conversion: Shattering the Physical World', is gifted to you."

"This is?"

Brenna took the book; just looking at the title, it seemed impossible to tell the use of this thing.

"Simply put, this is a book that teaches how to convert physical matter into Magic Energy. With this, your friend can convert the food she eats into Magic Energy. Isn't that magical?"

"How come I've never heard of such a book." Just then, the subordinate of the God of Pleasure and Chaos Vikala, the Faceless Fool Airui Laya, walked in from outside the door.

"Because I wrote it on the spot; the Federation currently has no need to master this kind of knowledge." Fen Yege turned around: "Vikala's subordinate... does the Joy God also want to meddle in affairs here?"

As he spoke, he looked up at the ceiling of the Laboratory: "He gathered all the information collected from the Old Days Front onto this item; I really don't know what he is thinking."

"My god's thoughts are naturally not something I can speculate on; I am merely doing what I can." Airui Laya looked around, and finally, she walked to Lita's side.

It seemed she saw that here, she was the one with the least to do.

"Can you tell me what has happened here?" Airui Laya asked.

"Th-this..."

"It's okay, tell her." Noticing Lita's gaze, Yun Mu said to her.

At the same time, the God of Decay and Necromancy Fen Yege was discussing with the Sheep and Wolf spirits.

"I will pull a soul from the Necromancy world that also won't wear out for you; will you let that girl return to her own body?"

"No!" The Wolf growled viciously: "She is already our prey!"

"Ha, don't be so rigid." Fen Yege thought for a moment and held up two fingers: "How about I give you two indomitable Warrior souls?"

The Wolf clearly hesitated for a moment, but he still stubbornly said: "A proud Wolf will not accept charity from the dead; give up!"

"Hmm." Fen Yege stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.

Then, he clapped his hands and said decisively: "Ten."

"Ugh, ahhhhhhh—" The Wolf's body wriggled in mid-air as if struck by Thunder. Just when Fen Yege thought he had won over the other party, he saw him with blood-red eyes, gritting his teeth: "No!"

Did he want even more? Just as Fen Yege was thinking this, the Sheep Spirit, who had been silent until now, spoke up: "No need, let that girl go back."

Without waiting for the Wolf on the side to speak, he continued: "Only, every Monday, Elena must come to help us Purify souls."

"Awoo~ That's more like it..." The Wolf put away the expression on his face and hummed softly.

Why does it feel like this guy's attitude is a bit off?

Fen Yege was a bit puzzled, but for a moment, he couldn't think of the reason.

But it didn't matter; it was good that the other party was willing to make concessions. Thinking about it, he asked: "Then the Warrior souls mentioned earlier..."

"Not needed." The Sheep Spirit directly interrupted his words.

"All things have an end, and the dead are no exception. When the time is ripe, I will come to collect them myself."

The Sheep Spirit's body suddenly became illusory, and before long, it turned into pure Ether and flowed into Yun Mu's body. At the same time, the other party's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"Bestowing death upon a dying god is our duty to begin with."

"When you need us, please call the Wolf softly."

The Sheep Spirit's voice dissipated from everyone's ears. Avala held the wine barrel and said: "After all, it is an arrow to kill a god; that Sheep Spirit needs to make preparations in advance."

"Do as he said; when the time comes, let the Wolf awaken him."

"Hehe, I'll stick with you for now, little kitty." The Wolf flew from the air to Yun Mu's side and grinned.

"Then... let's get along well?" Yun Mu tentatively extended a palm.

"Oh, I know this gesture, but I don't have hands." The Wolf said this and gently bumped his head against Yun Mu's palm.

"This is enough, haha."

Yun Mu retracted her palm, feeling that the sensation of touching the Wolf just now was unexpectedly quite good.

A cat and dog combination, huh? Interesting. Fen Yege watched the two interact and grinned with a chuckle.

"Don't you need to prepare like the Sheep Spirit?" Yun Mu looked at the Wolf with some curiosity.

"Of course not!" The Wolf looked quite proud: "I am the fastest Wolf in the world!"

"Alright." Although she didn't know what the fastest Wolf in the world had to do with the question she asked earlier, looking at His confident appearance, Yun Mu decided to trust Him for now.

"I'm back. Hmm?" Just at this moment, Elena, having received the recall message, passed through the wall and arrived inside the basement of the Joy Company.

"Princess, and Miss Yun?"

She saw Brenna and Yun Mu standing in the room at a glance.

Although living people cannot perceive souls, perhaps because the Sheep Spirit was possessing Yun Mu's body, she actually heard Elena's voice.

"Elena?" Yun Mu turned her head toward the direction the voice came from with some pleasant surprise.

"Is Elena back?" Hearing her words, Brenna and Lita immediately looked in the direction Yun Mu was looking.

But unfortunately, they saw nothing.

"Miss Yun? No, why can you see me?"

"And why is the Wolf following by your side?"

And Elena looked toward the direction of the other two deities in the room.

"Hiss!"

The brilliant starlight, condensed to the point of being nearly physical, pierced into Elena's eyes, scaring her into hurriedly retracting her gaze.

Without a doubt, those two who looked like they had no airs, and even the one holding a wine barrel to drink, were all genuine deities.

What on earth is going on!? Before Elena could react, Yun Mu grabbed her hand (Hmm?), and dragged her to the operating table in the Laboratory.

Why could Miss Yun grab her hand?

Wait, isn't this her body, how could it be lying here? And the hole that was originally in her chest, what is up with those metal structures inside, wow! Princess, what have you done to my body!?

"Hehe." Taking advantage of Elena's bewildered state, the Wolf quietly floated behind her.

"Go!"

Yun Mu seemed to hear a muffled thud, and Elena's soul body was rammed by the Wolf into her original physical body.

"Hey, is it okay to do this?" Yun Mu asked, looking at Elena lying on the operating table with some worry.

"Rest assured, nothing will happen." The Wolf smiled indifferently: "Look, she is already about to wake up."

Almost the moment the Wolf finished speaking, Elena, lying on the operating table, suddenly opened her eyes.

Then she fell off the operating table due to the problem of bodily incoordination.

Yun Mu and Brenna hurriedly helped her up, then quickly explained the current situation to her.

"So, I have been resurrected?"

After listening to the two's explanation, Elena reached out to touch her left chest; she could feel as if some foreign object was embedded inside her body.

"Uh, although you're resurrected, you still have to work for the God of Hunting and Death every Monday." Feeling the Wolf behind her quietly poking her back with its nose, Yun Mu immediately clarified.

"I see." Elena gripped her left hand in a daze, feeling that sensation of muscles exerting force that only the living can experience.

"Is there anything unusual with your body?" Brenna asked, looking at her with concern from the side.

"No." Elena shook her head: "It's exactly the same as when I was alive."

"Phew, that's great." Hearing this, Brenna finally breathed a sigh of relief; she hugged Elena, and the smiles and tears on her face could not be stopped.

"Welcome back, Elena!"

"Mm." Elena naturally placed her hand behind Brenna's head: "I'm back, Princess."

"Thank you for your hard work during this time."

"These are the locations of the remaining four God Bones..."

In the combat command room, Yun Mu looked at the map spread out on the table and the four locations marked on it, feeling a bit of a headache.

That imperial minister really placed the God Bones in such scattered locations before he died, and the distances were all very far.

Moreover, to prevent anyone from guessing where the God Bones might be based on distance, he had even calculated it meticulously; it was absolutely impossible to infer the hidden location of another God Bone based on the location of other God Bones by feeling alone.

"It's really impressive that you could find all the locations." Avala glanced at Fen Yege, then picked up his wine glass and took a light sip.

"A piece of cake, no need to be surprised." Fen Yege glanced at him.

At the same time, Yun Mu looked at the locations on the map and thought for a while. She pointed her finger at the two marks in the northwest and due south: "There is a railway near both of these locations. If we can start the Magic Train, we can retrieve the items in at most three days."

"The troublesome ones are the remaining two..." She pointed her finger to the due west of the map: "Here."

Yun Mu tapped the mark on the map lightly with her finger: "There is no railway approaching here, but fortunately there are still some highways and dirt roads we can take. If we use transportation reasonably, we should be able to return in five days."

"And then there is this one, which has no traces of any Civilization at all and is located on a cold mountain peak... It is said that there are chaotic Magic Storms there, and even an armed helicopter cannot approach it."

"How on earth did that Old Man move the God Bone up there?" Fen Yege muttered in a low voice at this time.

"There is still a way to get up there." Airui Laya came to Yun Mu at this time; she took a wooden carving from her bosom and slowly placed it on the mark of the last God Bone.

And the appearance of this wooden carving was—

"Shanyin Cruise Ship?" As the Champion and third-place finisher of the Old Days Front, Yun Mu and Brenna recognized the prototype of the wooden carving at a glance.

This is the ultimate mechanical body of the Shanyin series that can only be unlocked by spending a large amount of Resource Point after building the Combat Laboratory when the game reaches the mid-to-late stage, the top-tier aviation unit! "If it's a Shanyin Cruise Ship... breaking through that Magic Storm should be more than enough," Fen Yege said, looking at the wooden carving.

"However, can you build it?"

"That goes without saying." Yun Mu put her hands on her hips; at this time, her Combat Laboratory was almost finished being built.

In other words, after this, as long as she spent a certain amount of Resource Point, she could directly produce a Shanyin Cruise Ship? "This, how many zeros is this?" After the Combat Laboratory was completed, Yun Mu stared dumbfounded at the cost required to produce a Shanyin Cruise Ship.

Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands... two, two hundred thousand Resource Point!? (End of chapter)
