Chapter 106

In the dense forest, there was an area that was unreasonably dense. Vines, branches, and shrubs piled up that area so full that people couldn't even squeeze in.

A swordsman holding a machete hacked hard at the vines and branches. After hacking out a path of more than ten meters, he was panting and turned back to say: "Change people, change people, I'm exhausted."

They had been hacking trees to open the path like this all the way. Everyone was exhausted to death and had no mood to check the situation inside the vines, at most stabbing a few times with their swords.

After a companion took his place, he sat on the ground without any demeanor. As soon as his butt touched the ground, he felt something poking him. Lifting his butt to look, it was actually a gray hand bone.

The human swordsman kicked the hand bone into the bushes and cursed in a low voice: "Bad luck god possessed, ptooey."

Like him, human swordsmen had seen many corpses and bones, so they were not surprised.

What they were looking for now was a human without sin, a human Sword Saint, a horse, a young Huang Tong Dragon, an angel with only a skeleton left, and an armored man. If this hand bone were white, he would have taken a few more looks.

"This forest is really dense. I guess many people have died here before, right?" The swordsman said lazily.

One of the younger companions, perhaps a Level 1 swordsman, asked in confusion: "Senior, does people dying have anything to do with the forest being dense?"

This sentence caused laughter from the others. After laughing, the swordsman answered the question irrelevantly: "When I was a child, there was a famine in the village one year. Many people starved to death, and others were too weak to collect the corpses, so they threw the corpses into the small forest behind the village. The next year, the forest was so dense that you couldn't walk in at all. Many wild fruits grew in the forest, sour and fragrant."

Although the swordsman said this in a very relaxed tone, as if joking, everyone fell silent upon hearing his words. It seemed that everyone had seen that kind of dense forest, right behind the village.

For a while, everyone lost the mood to talk and buried their heads in opening the path, opening a small path in the forest that could be passed.

Along the small path, a team of swordsmen filed past, their long swords poking into the bushes and shrubs on both sides carelessly. They took turns opening the road, and they knew very well how dense the forest was. They didn't think that in such a dense state, a pile of things could hide inside.

Not just this team of swordsmen, every dozen meters, there was a team of swordsmen advancing side by side in the forest, searching like a carpet.

In the sky, several sub-dragon knights patrolled back and forth along the search line, looking down from a high position. In the higher sky were Griffin knights and goblin airships.

Many mages flew into mid-air, casting reconnaissance magic one after another.

Except for occasionally finding one or two skeletons, there were no other discoveries.

The entire human world was moving. Not only the Western Diocese, but the Eastern Diocese was no exception. All parties, regardless of their purpose and psychology, were passively or actively joining this search and arrest.

The forest where the assassins disappeared outside the city became a key area of concern. It was searched dozens of times repeatedly, but nothing was found.

The assassins consisted of two humans, an angel, an armored man, a young Huang Tong Dragon, and a horse. So many things seemed to have disappeared, and layers of checkpoints and defenses couldn't find a single clue.

If it weren't for the fact that spatial magic tools couldn't hold living things, everyone would have suspected whether someone had used a spatial magic tool to pack them up and take them away.

Perhaps they wouldn't have thought that what someone possessed wasn't a spatial magic tool, but a world.

In the Palace of Rest, Lu Se and Lei Dian widened their eyes, looking like they had never seen the world, looking at the magnificent palace in the distance and the main flame of the dead fire on the main hall, murmuring: "Is... is this the Palace of Rest? The place where the Monarch sleeps?"

No one had time to respond to them. Ang, Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si's main body Huang Tong Book, the little zombie, and the angel skeleton were chasing the skeletons wandering around everywhere.

"Why are there suddenly so many skeletons! Ang, what exactly did you do?" Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si roared.

The originally cold and clear Palace of Rest now had dozens of newborn skeletons wandering around the world. Their skeletons all came from those angel skeletons. Ang planted a thousand in the ground, and threw all the rest back into the Palace of Rest.

Ang pointed to the little sapling on the ground. The little sapling on the ground was forcefully 'hu—hu—hu—'. When he put on the scarecrow hat, Ang stuffed the little sapling in, and it had been Huhu hu there ever since.

Following its actions, the entire Palace of Rest became windy.

There was no wind in the Palace of Rest, including in the farm's barrier. The farm's barrier had sunlight, temperature, seasons, and birds, but there was no wind. Ang could only pollinate the crops through pollination techniques.

Now, there was suddenly wind here.

"What does it have to do with it? There were so many corpses before, and I didn't see any skeletons born." Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si said.

Since the Monarch disappeared, Ang was the only skeleton left in the entire Palace of Rest. The rest were just skeletons. In these thousand-plus years, no undead creatures had been born.

The bigger problem was that Ang's soul hadn't been strengthened either. For over a thousand years, after he changed his bones to become a gray-bone skeleton, he had made no progress. Instead, his mental power was incomparably powerful, and his soul was exceptionally condensed.

This led to him leaving the Palace of Rest and blowing the Wind of Rest in the world transit station for half a year, and his soul strength improved rapidly, heading straight for the Heart of the Soul. This was because the foundation was laid well.

Synthesizing Ang's situation, the biggest reason why the Palace of Rest couldn't give birth to undead creatures was because the aura of death was exhausted. Without the aura of death, how could hundreds of skeletons stand up just because the little sapling Huhu hu a few times?

Ang pointed to the wind blowing slightly in the air and said: "Wind, has aura." Meaning that there was an aura of death in the Wind of Rest.

Being reminded by Ang like this, Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si had to pay attention. He was a Huang Tong Book and was not very sensitive to soul energy. Only after sensing carefully did he find that there was indeed an aura of death in the breeze.

Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Liquid of Rest!"

It should be, Ang nodded. Before, he had condensed a lot of Liquid of Rest using the Witherless Spring Stone and transferred it to the Palace of Rest. As soon as the Liquid of Rest entered here, it would immediately diffuse into the air until it reached a saturated state.

It was because of the diffusion of the Liquid of Rest that the main hall of the Palace of Rest ignited the main flame of the dead fire, releasing the Undead Divinity.

And today, the little sapling Huhu hu urged the movement of the air, actually quickly giving birth to dozens of skeletons.

In the following days, more and more skeletons were urged to stand up, and soon reached more than a hundred. With them wandering everywhere, the silent Palace of Rest actually had a few more traces of 'life' than usual.

The bored Ang caught one of them, sacrificed holy light, and wiped it on its body. Soon, it wasn't just skeletons wandering, but also living angels.

Just like this, unknowingly, among the four subsidiary buildings outside the main hall of the Palace of Rest, one of the palaces, which looked like a purple skull on the outside, suddenly ignited purple flames in its empty eye sockets.

Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si was the first to discover this abnormal change. He flew over to take a look and immediately shouted: "Ang, come over and take a look quickly. Is this the skeleton of Jian Gu Luo Ke?"
