Chapter 337: Not a Dragon God, but a Natural Enemy

"Flash Feti? Sturdy Luo Ke, these native undead really do name things carelessly." Nai Ge Li Si couldn't help but complain.

From the moment Ange spoke that name, Du Luo Ken and Andong Ni fell into deep thought, as if their memories had been struck by something, and forgotten matters slowly revived.

Nai Ge Li Si's words made Du Luo Ken, whose memory was reviving, frown. He said hesitantly, "Their names seem to be ones I gave them. Are you scolding me??"

"Huh? No no no, 'careless' here means 'following your heart,' as in it sounds pleasant and comfortable to the ear." Nai Ge Li Si hurriedly denied it.

"Scold if you want, I did just name them casually, it really was careless. The name doesn't matter, what matters is the nickname. I remember now what 'Flash' means—when it moves, it's like a flickering light." Du Luo Ken muttered.

Nai Ge Li Si nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood—so are you letting me scold you or not?

"Right right right, I remember too. Flash Feti—when Lord Feti moved, it was like a flash of light. People often couldn't even see what he looked like before they were knocked to the ground." Andong Ni also recalled something.

Nai Ge Li Si looked at them and asked in confusion, "Why can't I remember anything? Could it be I didn't know this Flash Feti before?"

Andong Ni and Du Luo Ken exchanged a glance, then turned to Nai Ge Li Si and asked, "You really can't remember anything?"

Du Luo Ken said, "It seems to have been closest to you. Its flash was something it only learned after you came. It said you told it the secrets of time and space. We've all remembered—do you really not recall a single thing?"

Nai Ge Li Si shook his head blankly. Why couldn't he remember anything at all? Not a single impression?

Du Luo Ken said thoughtfully, "Now there's only one possibility left. You're different from us—your memory wasn't forgotten because of the power of forgetting, but was erased by someone else."

The only one with the ability to erase Nai Ge Li Si's memory would be the Undead Sovereign: "Why would Your Majesty erase my memory?"

"How would we know? Maybe you did something bad. You don't even have memories of the witch—it's very likely you peeked at the witch changing clothes, and Your Majesty got angry and erased your memory." Andong Ni guessed.

"I... I... I..." Nai Ge Li Si stammered for a long time, unable to speak, because Andong Ni's guess was perfectly reasonable. Otherwise why couldn't he even remember the witch? Why erase only his memory and no one else's?

"Did we forget something?" Nai Ge Li Si, not knowing how to defend himself, simply changed the subject and turned to look at the pristine white skeleton standing dazed not far away.

Following his words, the others also turned their gaze over, landing on that pristine white skeleton.

"That's strange—we clearly saw it the moment we arrived, so why have we kept overlooking it? It wasn't until my lord spoke Flash Feti's name just now that I remembered it." Andong Ni said with a frown.

Du Luo Ken also frowned and said, "It seems to have an ability that makes people overlook it."

Who is Andong Ni? Who is Du Luo Ken? Who is Nai Ge Li Si? Pick any one of them, and none of them could possibly overlook a special skeleton. Just what power made everyone overlook it?

"Look at its forehead—isn't that a mark? It seems like... it seems like... what mark was it again?" Even as he spoke, Nai Ge Li Si forgot again.

Realizing everyone's eyes were focused on it, the skeleton held out for a while, but couldn't stand it any longer, turned around and ran.

"Hey hey hey, careful, don't run around." Da Gu shouted to be careful, and slapped it back with one palm.

The little zombie pounced over, shoulder-charged it and sent it flying, then followed up by swinging the hoe in its hand.

Clang clang clang clang—a string of hammering sounds, even sparking, yet the pristine white skeleton's bones only gained a few white spots.

The little angel's hands wrapped in holy light pressed forward.

The pristine white skeleton staggered left and right, and in no time was beaten to the ground, then dragged back by the little angel and the little zombie, each grabbing one of its legs.

"This seems like... this seems like... ah, so annoying. Ange, do you have any way to block its power? Looking at it makes me keep forgetting things." Nai Ge Li Si irritably shook his head. The word was right on the tip of his tongue, but he just couldn't say it.

Ange took out the Lifeline Rope, tied the skeleton up securely, then wrapped it in a Holy Shroud Cloth, leaving only the mark on its forehead exposed.

The Holy Shroud Cloth blocked the vast majority of the power of forgetting from leaking out, so the influence wasn't too severe—they could think normally without constantly forgetting words.

"This looks like a Mark of Forgetting, doesn't it? Why would a skeleton have a Mark of Forgetting on its head?" Nai Ge Li Si said, picking at it as he spoke: "It wasn't carved on, it grew naturally."

"These bones don't look like normal human bones either—could they be the bones of the God of Forgetting?" Du Luo Ken guessed.

Andong Ni said, "So Lord Feti went to kill the God of Forgetting, got hit by its Mark of Forgetting, causing everyone to forget it. But the God of Forgetting also died, and its bones were reborn as a skeleton?"

Pulling down the Holy Shroud Cloth to expose the pristine white skeleton's head, Andong Ni stared at it and asked, "Is that how it is?"

The pristine white skeleton tilted its head blankly.

"Are you the reborn remains of the God of Forgetting? What's your name?"

The pristine white skeleton tilted its head: "Forgot..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Your divine power can still work on yourself? I'm impressed—you might not be the God of Forgetting, but the God of Being Forgetful." Nai Ge Li Si irritably pulled the Holy Shroud Cloth back up and covered its face again.

"What do we do now? Can you sense where Flash Feti is? Should we go find him?" Nai Ge Li Si turned to Ange and asked.

Ange shook his head: "Don't know."

"Then forget it, dismissed, dismissed."

Ange shook his head, then suddenly pulled out a Great Angel Staff: "Repair."

"Huh? How do you still have a Great Angel Staff? Didn't you give it to Andong Ni?" Nai Ge Li Si exclaimed in surprise.

Andong Ni was also puzzled: "Yeah, I took it to those artifact forgers to have it repaired. Apart from having no holy power, no one could tell it was broken at all—plenty of devout believers came from other places to worship it."

Back then, Ange had completely emptied out the God of Life's vault. Inside was a pile of damaged equipment, basically no repair value, but just fixing the outer appearance was still doable—without taking it apart, no one could tell it was broken.

"Goddess of Redemption." Ange said.

Well, now everyone understood—it had been copied from the unlucky Goddess of Redemption.

Compared to the God of Life, the Goddess of Redemption at least maintained her collection, so it hadn't rotted beyond repair.

Du Luo Ken rolled up his sleeves, saying eagerly, "Looks like this arduous task can only be left to me. I haven't repaired a Great Angel Staff before—wonder how big the gap is between the underlying principles and soul artifacts?"

Du Luo Ken quickly regretted those words. Just when he'd finally finished repairing the Great Angel Staff, Ange pulled out a Meteor Hammer. After repairing the Meteor Hammer, he pulled out a Spirit Feather Bow.

"How many good things do you actually have? I can't take it anymore, I can't—hand it to the God of Knowledge. Its vast knowledge can make up for the shortcomings in alchemy, it'll definitely be able to repair them well." Du Luo Ken said, his head spinning.

Heaven have mercy—although he had once been a powerful being with a side palace, he had only just been reborn not long ago, his soul was too weak, and he couldn't handle high-intensity work.

"No no no, alchemy still has to rely on Lord Du Luo Ken. We're counting on you." Nai Ge Li Si didn't fall for it, and with a smile changed the subject: "Right, Ange, why on earth did you suddenly think of repairing these things?"

Ange pointed at the big pit: "Useful."

It really was quite useful. Dai Sen had just gotten into position when Ange smashed over with two hammers, and with one Earthly Holy Hammer from the little angel, it was done. He had never realized before that good equipment could be such a labor-saver.

He might as well repair all those broken things back home, so that if anyone ever disturbed his farming again, he could just pull them out and smash them.

Nai Ge Li Si's forehead filled with black lines: "You're planning to use these divine artifacts as hammers to smash people? You spendthrift..."

Knowing that talking was useless, Nai Ge Li Si directly scooped up the other equipment besides the hammer and put it away first, otherwise this kind of trash skeleton really might take the Archangel's Staff and smash it like a hammer.

Seeing that Duroken had repaired another one, Seeing Ange took out another one.

Duroken waved his hand and sat down on the ground: "No more repairing, no more. Let me rest for a few decades first. Kuabada, I've been dead for so many years, and this is the first time repairing equipment made me want to puke. Huh?"

Just as he finished speaking, Duroken discovered that what Seeing Ange took out was not a piece of equipment, but a ball.

Seeing Ange also realized he had grabbed the wrong thing—this was the egg obtained on Dragon Island, not equipment—and stuffed it back in.

"Wait, wait, take it out and let me see, what is that thing? It can't be an egg, can it?" Duroken said.

Seeing Ange took the egg out again. This egg was very miraculous—after Seeing Ange touched it, the duration of the Dragon God transformation actually extended.

But that was a one-time thing; no matter how he touched it afterward, the Dragon God transformation showed no change.

The entire egg was pitch-black like a rock, with only a small patch showing white—that was the spot where Seeing Ange's concentrated worm-ash liquid had caused it to revert.

Nai Ge Li Si asked in confusion: "Why don't you soak it? Let it revert, hatch it out and see what it is. It's very likely a Dragon God's egg."

Seeing Ange shook his head: "Worm-ash liquid, not enough."

"How is that possible? Just the fish-worms killed in the Pure Sea Plane alone are countless, more than enough to refine several tons of worm-ash liquid. How could it not be enough?" Nai Ge Li Si exclaimed.

Seeing Ange shook his head: "Not enough, need to grow vegetables."

"Fine, I get it now. Because you need to grow vegetables, you don't want to use worm-ash liquid to soak it, right?" Nai Ge Li Si said.

Seeing Ange nodded as a matter of course.

Nai Ge Li Si sighed—he knew it would be like this. Worm-ash liquid was now the main fertilizer for soilless cultivation; no matter how much there was, it was never enough.

As long as there was enough fertilizer, Seeing Ange could expand the planting area without limit, because the Fresh Sea Plane still had vast space to expand into.

But he couldn't possibly wait until Seeing Ange had planted the entire surface of the Fresh Sea Plane before dealing with this egg, could he? This egg was very likely a Dragon God's egg, extremely important to the giant dragon clan. Nai Ge Li Si didn't want to wait too long.

"How about this, lend me some worm-ash liquid, I'll revert it first, okay? Later I'll have Brusk send something for those two Worm Gods to eat, to make up the worm-ash liquid I borrowed?" Nai Ge Li Si negotiated.

Hermel and Ma Disi, these two Worm Gods, their most important task now was producing worm-ash liquid for Seeing Ange—as long as they were fed enough food, they could continuously output worm-ash liquid.

Seeing Ange still shook his head: "Need a lot, one time, if not successful, will break."

Nai Ge Li Si understood now—it needed a lot of worm-ash liquid, only one chance, if it failed the egg would be ruined. If that was the case, no wonder Seeing Ange hadn't tried it lightly.

Duroken, hearing this much, finally understood a bit, and couldn't help interrupting to ask: "Wait a moment, you mean that worm-ash liquid of yours can turn this petrified egg back into a living one?"

After receiving Nai Ge Li Si's confirmation, Duroken said with a strange expression: "Although this worm-ash liquid is very miraculous, why don't you think about it from another angle? I've heard the Light Church's Wisdom Angels have a weapon called Petrification Ray. Is it possible this egg was hit by some kind of petrification skill?"

After speaking, Duroken added: "If you think this egg is a fossil, then it must have already been ruined before being petrified. Reverting it would be useless."

Nai Ge Li Si couldn't help slapping himself across the face: "Kuabada, I'm an idiot. Shamara, Shamara."

He really was an idiot—why did he only think of worm-ash liquid? This was clearly a petrified egg, why couldn't he think about it from the angle of petrification skills?

Moreover, if this egg had become a fossil because of the long passage of time, then it must have already rotted before being petrified. Even if reverted, he'd only get a rotten egg. Better to approach it directly from the angle of petrification skills.

"Shamara is that Fallen Angel, right? What are you calling her for?" Duroken had already met Shamara, so he didn't quite understand why Nai Ge Li Si would look for a Fallen Angel.

But when Seraphim Luna separated from her, he was dumbfounded: "How do you have everything? Wisdom Angels have fallen too?"

Seraphim Luna nodded at him: "Hello, Alchemist Magician Lord Duroken, I am Wisdom Angel Seraphim Luna."

"You know me?" Duroken exclaimed.

"Of course. Not even knowing one's enemies—that would be my dereliction of duty," Seraphim Luna said.

Duroken awkwardly scratched his nose and muttered: "I don't know any of you..." He didn't even know how many members the Light Gods had.

Seraphim Luna pretended she hadn't heard, squatted down to examine the stone egg, and after a while said: "It really does look like it was caused by Petrification Ray. There are no cavities inside. If it were naturally petrified, the decay of the internal matter would have formed cavities and air pockets. You can try it, Lord Seeing Ange—the Petrification Bow is in your hands. Just adjust it to the de-petrification setting."

The moment Seraphim Luna finished speaking, Duroken couldn't help shouting: "The Petrification Bow is in your hands? Why haven't I ever seen you use it? With the Petrification Bow, why are you still repairing the Archangel's Staff? That's a divine weapon that can even petrify gods."

Seeing Ange tilted his head, thought for a while, then looked at his own arm, where two inconspicuous rings were strapped, hidden by scarecrow illusion. If Seraphim Luna hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have remembered he had two rings there.

"Forgot." Seeing Ange patted those two rings, and the rings instantly sprang up, clicking and clacking as they combined into a crossbow.

Seeing Ange followed Seraphim Luna's instructions and adjusted the setting to de-petrification. Seraphim Luna said: "Under normal circumstances I wouldn't use the de-petrification function, because it consumes too much Holy Power—the energy required is ten times that of the Petrification Arrow. Even I would have to save up energy for a long time."

Seeing Ange silently channeled energy into it. Other things might be lacking, but Holy Light was in abundance.

The de-petrification ray infused with ten times the Holy Power struck the stone egg, and just like the God of Balance back then, the stony surface peeled off layer by layer.

The instant the stone egg was de-petrified, a wave that made giant dragons' hearts palpitate spread outward, just like last time, but this time the wave was dozens of times stronger.

Seeing Ange suddenly threw down the Petrification Bow in his hand, scales surged over his body, and he transformed into the Dragon God, slamming his fist onto the surface of the stone egg.

His action startled Nai Ge Li Si into crying out: "What are you doing? This is a Dragon God's egg!"

"No, it's a natural enemy." While speaking, Seeing Ange's fist landed on the egg.
