Chapter 24: Wit in a Crisis

While Lisha and Lan were talking about the price, Ang was walking toward the glowing moss field. He hadn't returned to the glowing moss field for a long time and didn't know how things were going.

The glowing moss field wasn't actually far from the Undead Temple in a straight line, perhaps only separated by a cliff wall, but to get there, one had to pass through a winding karst cave, so Ang couldn't just return whenever he wanted.

The reason for returning this time was that if the crops grew smoothly, it should be the second growth stage, and Ang had to return to fertilize and supplement water. If the growth wasn't smooth, then... pull them out and plant mushrooms.

The little zombie followed behind Ang, and a tall and sturdy minotaur skeleton with a hunched waist followed behind the little zombie like a little maid. There was a small pit dented in the cheek position, which was probably the reason why the minotaur skeleton was so obedient.

Turning left and right, Ang's group returned to the glowing moss field. The situation here hadn't changed much because Fei Lin had listed this area as a restricted area, and no one could enter.

Approaching the moss field, Ang suddenly remembered something and glanced at the corner position. He remembered that there used to be a skeleton here, but now the skeleton was gone.

Back then, the necromancer chose a slender skeleton to come over, but was killed directly by Fei Lin with a Soul-Sucking Abyss, leaving behind a skeleton. This skeleton was now gone.

Either someone moved it away, or it gave birth to a soul itself and ran away.

Uh, didn't run. It dug a pit in the soil in the farmland and hid. As soon as Ang stepped into the soil, it reached out and grabbed Ang's foot, dragging him into the soil.

However, the embarrassing thing was that it didn't drag Ang, but instead dragged itself out of the soil.

The slender skeleton sprang up fiercely from the soil and punched Ang's cheek.

Ang subconsciously pushed forward with both hands, pushing the slender skeleton away, smashing it into the farmland and rolling over a long stretch of crops.

"Awoo!" Ang howled. As a vegetable-farming skeleton, he couldn't bear to see crops being destroyed, making him subconsciously howl.

Howling didn't matter, but his 'Awoo' made the little zombie misunderstand. It darted out and fiercely hit the slender skeleton that had just crawled up, knocking it away.

This slender skeleton was very sturdy. The little zombie could knock the minotaur skeleton's lower leg off with one hit, but couldn't knock the slender skeleton's frame apart, only knocking it away, smashing into the deeper part of the farmland and bringing down a piece of intact crops.

Ang was really anxious now. He 'Awoo'ed and ran into the field himself. Stepping down, the crops made him subconsciously shrink his feet.

Farming used to be ridge by ridge with gaps. Stepping between two rows of crops could come and go without damage. But the current glowing moss field had glowing moss between two rows of crops. No matter where you stepped, there were things, and there was nowhere to step.

Once anxious, wisdom was born. Ang, who was witty in a crisis, used the Pollination spell to wrap his feet, lifted his whole body up, and drifted into the field. The essence of the Pollination spell was wind elements wrapping pollen, and the essence was a wind tornado.

Drifting above the little zombie and the slender skeleton, he reached out and grabbed them, picking them up like little chickens and throwing them out of the field.

The little zombie fell solidly onto the stone outside the farmland, but it was a zombie, thick-skinned and fleshy, with no damage.

And the slender skeleton didn't look like a skeleton that had just been born at all. Whether it was the punch toward Ang's cheek just now, or now, it twisted its waist in the air, actually doing a somersault in the air, landing lightly on both feet, bending its knees to unload force, and then rolling forward, unloading all of Ang's throwing force cleanly.

It sprang up intact and ran away.

Want to run? Ang was angry. Destroyed his crops and still wanted to run?

Ang's eye sockets' blue light flourished, and a soul shock blasted toward the slender skeleton.

Soul shock was the most basic skill of undead creatures, just like minotaurs using their heads to hit people, all innate, and also the most expressive way of soul strength for undead creatures.

Ang had already condensed his soul heart and belonged to the level of a golden skeleton, but his bones hadn't been metalized yet. Compared to this slender skeleton that had just given birth to a soul, his soul was the gap between an abyss and a puddle.

Ang didn't even use his full strength, and the slender skeleton fell forward, dizzy for a long time and unable to crawl up. When it crawled up, it found that it was tied up with a rope and tied together with the minotaur skeleton.

Ang studied the tied slender skeleton well and found that its desire to fight was very strong. Although tied up, and Ang's soul was much stronger than it, it still struggled desperately to launch an attack, not showing any intention of being cowardly at all, much more reckless than the little zombie.

Studying its bones again, Ang found that the slender skeleton's flexibility mainly stemmed from its joints. Its joint movement angle was much larger than human bones. This was a humanoid, but not a human skeleton.

"What kind of skeleton is this?" Ang asked.

Who was he asking? Of course, Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si, but Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si acted as if he hadn't heard, and there was no response at all.

Didn't hear? Ang tilted his head and remembered one thing: to ask Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si a question, one needed to call his divine name. It was just that during this period, Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si had been projected on Ang, making him a bit accustomed to it.

"Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si." Ang called out the God of Knowledge's divine name.

Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si knew he couldn't hide anymore and jumped out helplessly, saying: "Don't know. Who would recognize what creature a skeleton was before it died? Not to mention the skeleton might not be complete. If it's missing something, it's even harder to recognize. Maybe this skeleton had four hands before it died?"

He knew many humanoid creatures, but who would study the differences in a pile of bones? If Ang didn't compare, he would have thought this was a human skeleton.

Four hands? Ang was stunned and turned the slender skeleton over to look. Its deformed shoulder blades were indeed very similar to the joints of another two arms.

Thinking about it, Ang took off his own arm bones and compared them on the slender skeleton. No, it couldn't be stuck in.

Then what kind of bones did its shoulder blade stick to?

This question remained in Ang's heart until he finished dealing with the crops in the glowing moss field, returned to the temple, rummaged through the pile of bones Fei Lin sent, and finally found two bones that could be stuck to the shoulder blade position.

These two bones didn't look like arm bones, but rather...

"They look like wing bones. If they were covered with feathers, they would be a pair of wings. Could this skeleton be the skeleton of a bird-man angel?" Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si said hesitantly. ===== CHAPTER 25 =====
