Chapter 26: Planting Pit

~7 min read 1,353 words

Miss Lisha cautiously stepped into the range of the temple. The temple usually had no walls, but it had a very clear edge. As long as the silver skeleton was angry, the fence would rise. The fence that usually disappeared underground was the boundary of the temple.

Miss Lisha probed one foot in, and seeing that the silver skeleton had no reaction, she stepped in with both feet, while being vigilant against the silver skeleton, and walked quickly toward the angel skeleton.

Her attention was all on the silver skeleton, so when she approached, she didn't notice the wings behind the angel skeleton.

Watching her approach, the angel skeleton tilted its head blankly, but its body arched forward, like a bow ready to go. When Miss Lisha stepped into its attack range, its wings spread out with a swish, and the whole person pounced on her.

"Hey, what are you doing, wings? Bird-man? Ouch..." Miss Lisha was beaten until her hair was disheveled, and she retreated in embarrassment.

Looking at the angel skeleton tied by a rope around its neck but still wanting to stretch its legs to kick people, Miss Lisha laughed in anger: "I know why you have to be tied up. So it's a battle bird. What's going on? Why is there a battle angel here?"

Anna slipped in cautiously, looking at the angel skeleton, and said: "Not a battle angel, no holy aura."

Lan was stared at by the silver skeleton and couldn't slip in, shouting loudly outside: "No matter what it is, put clothes on her first."

"Oh oh oh." Anna hurriedly wiped a ring on her hand, and then with a flip of her hand, a piece of white clothing appeared in her hand. It was actually a storage ring.

Cautiously approaching, wanting to put clothes on the other party, but unexpectedly welcomed an attack.

Anna stepped forward, pressed her shoulders, stepped, and hit the angel skeleton with one shoulder, knocking it flying.

One shoulder hit tested the angel skeleton's level, which made Anna even bolder. She reached out and grabbed the angel skeleton's ankle, dragging it back from the air.

With her feet crossed, she retreated straight, dragging the angel skeleton to the end of the rope, and the body and the rope were pulled straight, suspended in the air.

The rope was around its neck, and Anna was dragging its ankle again. The angel skeleton's body was suspended in the air with nowhere to exert force, and could only kick its legs in vain.

Anna threw the clothes to Miss Lisha, grabbed the other leg of the angel skeleton, and held it more steadily in the air, saying: "Quick, change it for her."

Miss Lisha looked at the angel skeleton's neck worriedly and couldn't help but say: "You, you are too rough, aren't you? Be careful not to break your neck."

"No, if you are quick, it won't. If you are slow, she will break herself," Anna said urgently.

In a hurry, she put the clothes on the angel skeleton. As soon as she put it down, Anna regretted it because what she took out was a white dress, which was a bit long on the angel skeleton. And as soon as she put it down, it rolled on the ground...

Anna pounced on it again, hard-carrying several punches from the angel skeleton, forcibly controlling it, tearing off the extra-long parts, leaving only a section covering the knees. This way, at least it wasn't dragging, but the stains on the clothes couldn't be cleared, making the clothes white in one piece and grey in another.

"What the hell is this thing?" After finally tossing the clothes for it, Anna had the leisure to express her doubts. She found that the other party's movements were very flexible, only restricted by the rope, and the strength was too small. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for her to control the other party.

Miss Lisha had the leisure to observe with her soul and quickly reached a conclusion: "Skeleton, a skeleton covered in flesh and blood. Heavens, a skeleton angel covered in flesh and blood. It must be something created by my Lord Ang again."

"Uh, then where did Lord Ang go?" Anna asked.

To be honest, it was really not easy to find someone who could communicate normally in the Undead Temple. Finally, Auntie Minotaur told them: "Oh, the Lord went to find a new planting area. The City Lord took him there."

Under Fei Lin's leadership, Ang came to the planting area of the underground city. This was the main production area for food in the underground city, and the food that maintained the underground city's population of more than five thousand was planted here.

It was called a planting area, but in fact, it was some sinkholes trapped underground. Under the action of flowing water, the underground was eroded, the ground collapsed, forming a sinkhole that was straight up and down. Over the years, fertile soil accumulated at the bottom, becoming an area where crops could be planted.

There were dozens of such sinkholes near the underground city, seven of which had the best conditions and were reclaimed into planting areas. Now the one Fei Lin brought Ang to was one of them.

Because it was deep underground, the Breath of Breath on the ground couldn't blow into the pit, but it also brought another problem—insufficient light.

On the rock wall at the edge of the sinkhole, a large lighting magic array was engraved. Aisike was in front of the magic array, injecting his last trace of mana into the magic array, and then sticking out his tongue and gasping for air: "Ouch, old, old, not usable anymore. Only three trips and I'm tired to death. In the past, I could easily do seven trips a day."

Hearing this, Fei Lin's face turned black. Wasn't this mocking him?

"Are you older than me? A young man under sixty, talking about being old all the time. I don't think you are old, you are lazy."

Aisike stood up with a start, looked back at Fei Lin, and accompanied with a smile: "Why are you here? Uh, who is this? Eh?"

Everyone knew about the mysterious person in the city, especially the reopening of the temple and the visit to the glowing moss field, which made everyone clearly feel the existence of that mysterious person.

Although Fei Lin kept it strictly confidential, everyone guessed that it was likely related to the Undead Empire because Fei Lin was scraping soul crystals everywhere to exchange for food.

Knowing was one thing, but Fei Lin strictly forbade everyone from disturbing Ang, so Aisike hadn't seen that mysterious person, only heard from those who had seen him that it was a skeleton.

Then now, the skeleton that could make Fei Lin accompany respectfully on the side was undoubtedly that mysterious person. It was just that why did this skeleton look so familiar?

Ang waved at him and tilted his head.

The action of tilting his head instantly made Aisike confirm his guess: "Is it really you?"

The mysterious person who had been rumored in the city for a long time was actually the dull skeleton he brought back? Back then, he was worried that it would be too dangerous in the wild, so he brought it back, and even told the other party carelessly that the underground city was very safe.

For an existence of this level, where would it not be safe? Too embarrassing, too shameful, Aisike's face was a bit red.

"What are you doing here?" Aisike hurriedly changed the subject.

"Farmland, Lord Ang wants to come and see those abandoned farmlands to see if there is any way to plant things on them," Fei Lin said.

"Lord Ang?" Aisike suddenly remembered another thing: "Is the glowing moss supplementary light Lord Ang's technology? It's really practical. Without glowing moss, we had to supplement mana seven times a day, and the light was not enough. Now we supplement mana three times, and the light is enough." ===== CHAPTER 27 =====
