Chapter 575

~8 min read 1,516 words

Although these two skeletons are only at the golden level, their souls already show signs of breaking through to the Soul of Mourning. In terms of soul strength alone, they are incomparably powerful, even Chairman Guste doesn't have this level of soul strength.

When they released their soul shocks simultaneously, the power generated made even Guste feel a headache, and he shouted urgently: "Mental Barrier!"

Unfortunately, it was too late. The soul shock hit the black horse first, producing... producing... nothing happened...

Two super-strong soul shocks, like clay oxen pushed into the sea, simply disappeared without a trace.

"You scared me. You had already cast a Mental Barrier, that's good, that's good." Guste said with relief.

《Sword Coming》

Ang tilted his head. Not really, it's just that the black horse has a soul connection with Anthony, and Anthony has a soul connection with him, all within the same soul network, so the soul shocks of those two golden skeletons ultimately acted on him.

His soul felt a bit swollen, but it was fine very quickly.

The others had long expected this outcome and weren't worried at all. With the God of Undead by their side, would they be shaken by a mere soul shock? They were instead shocked by the black horse's amazing ability to spray insults: "What's the situation? Has Flash possessed it?"

"Hmph!" The black horse tossed its head haughtily, its mane full of black energy drifting elegantly: "What is Flash? One day, the world will only remember my prestige!"

Anthony chuckled and explained in a low voice: "After being scolded by Flash last time, it now memorizes Flash's quotes and various mocking techniques every day. Now, except for 'mocking with the face' which it hasn't learned yet, it's almost caught up to Flash."

"Ku Ba Da, then we're in trouble. It can use endless time to pile up vocabulary to a terrifying degree, even spraying us for three or five years without repeating." Du Luo Ken sighed immediately.

"No, no, Flash's quotes aren't that many, at most two hours without repeating. I don't dare to collect these things for it anymore. Who do you think it would spray first if it learned these?" Anthony said with a bitter smile.

Their whispered discussion filled Guste with intense curiosity: "Who is Flash?"

"Oh, a terrifying shadow that has already gone far but still shrouds our souls." Anthony explained cleverly. He couldn't tell Guste that it was a unicorn that was super good at scolding people; there are no unicorns on this plane.

"Oh, terrifying, shadow, shrouding, gone, I understand." Guste nodded to show he understood.

No one knew what he understood, until many years later, someone found his notes and saw a record there: Gone shadow, terrifying ancient god, terrifying Flash.

"Alright, now it can be confirmed that these two golden skeletons have intelligence. What should we do now? Should we feed them to the dogs? I know a three-headed hellhound that is super good at gnawing bones. I can summon it over." Anthony said 'loudly' to Guste beside him.

Guste was stunned at first, but quickly reacted and hurriedly responded 'loudly': "A three-headed hellhound? That three-headed hellhound from legend that has a stomach like an endless abyss and a dimensional throat, and can gnaw anything?"

"Yes, yes, yes, that's the one. Do we need to summon it over, Lord Chairman?"

While they were chatting here, the two golden skeletons had already released several soul shocks, which was the only attack they could cast at the moment.

However, for undead creatures protected by the God of Undead, soul shock is no different from 'staring you to death with your eyes'. Instead, Guste had to replenish the Mental Barrier several times. Just as he was curious why Ang and his group didn't replenish the Mental Barrier but could easily withstand the soul shock, Ang timely and 'leisurely' replenished several Mental Barriers on everyone.

Anthony breathed a sigh of relief secretly. The projection of the little yellow dragon on his body still had some effect, it could pick up the slack.

Just like that, everyone chatted, and with the black horse's mockery, the two golden skeletons were exhausted.

When they were so tired that they couldn't release any more soul shocks, Ang let them down, tied them firmly with ropes, and they wouldn't be able to break free until their souls recovered.

Guste was amazed: "This is the first time I've seen such a clever combat method, using the mouth to defeat the enemy, it's simply too incredible."

An expression of 'you have so little experience' appeared on everyone's faces inadvertently. Only Anthony said 'humbly': "Hehe, Lord Chairman, you praise us too much. These are all just opportunistic methods. If it were you, Lord Chairman, you might have taken them down directly, no need to use your mouth."

After a few polite words, Anthony said: "Lord Chairman, shall we interrogate them together?"

"Interrogate? That's not good, right? They might be His Majesty's guards, it's not good to be too rough." Guste said hesitantly.

Anthony's expression changed immediately: "Hehe, Chairman Guste, come here, come, come here."

Walking a distance away, they stopped only when they couldn't see the golden skeletons anymore. Then Anthony rambled: "The shape of this cave is so strange, is there any particular significance to it?"

"Oh, it should be some kind of multi-dimensional stacking technology. I heard His Majesty mention it once, but I haven't been here either." Guste was a bit confused about why he was pulled over just to ask such a question, but he still answered patiently.

"Wow, it sounds so high-end just hearing it. Have you eaten, Chairman? Uh, no, no, I mean what style of food did you like to eat when you were alive, Chairman?" Anthony immediately switched to an even more unreliable topic.

Just at this moment, a miserable soul wail came from afar.

Guste's expression changed, and he looked at Anthony: "You guys..."

"Oh, maybe some souls are arguing, don't worry about it, Lord Chairman, let's continue chatting about the delicacies from various places." Anthony said.

"But..." Guste finally reacted. Although he had had such situations of playing deaf and dumb before, Anthony was being too blatant.

Anthony lowered his voice and said: "If you don't want to wait until His Majesty returns to know everything, then just pretend you didn't hear anything now. If His Majesty asks later, just say Kent did it."

Guste's eyes lit up, 'suddenly enlightened': "Oh, so they were arguing. Kent's people really have all kinds of people. I prefer barbecue."

"Oh? Barbecue? Then you have to add spices. What spices do you usually like?" Anthony asked.

"Spices? Salt? Isn't it just rubbing some salt and then roasting it?" Guste was a bit confused. Although he hadn't eaten barbecue for hundreds or thousands of years, he still remembered how to roast things.

"Oh, that method is too backward. Now you need to add spices, first marinate with salt, oil, ginger, and 【Ingredient】, keep brushing with oil while roasting, and when the heat roasts out the fat from the meat and it starts sizzling, then sprinkle on the spices..."

Guste swallowed subconsciously, but he was an undead and couldn't swallow anything: "Although I haven't eaten this roasting method, it sounds delicious. It's a pity I'm an undead and can't eat it."

"Hehe, there will be a chance, there will be a chance. If you want to buy spices, you can look for it, report my name for a 5% discount." Anthony stuffed a card into his hand and said meaningfully.

Those undead creatures who had retreated into the passage, seeing that Guste hadn't returned for a long time, also gathered their courage and ran in. Seeing Guste from afar and hearing the wailing, they hurriedly asked: "What's going on? What happened?"

"Nothing, nothing, just a few skeleton undead arguing, don't worry about it. Come, come, come, you all say, what did you like to eat when you were alive?" Guste hurriedly stopped them and changed the subject.

Are you kidding me? Arguing and calling out so miserably and wailing so miserably?

But since Guste said so, everyone couldn't question it. Those who wanted to go over and take a look were also held back, forced to talk about what they loved to eat when they were alive, until more than ten minutes later, it became quiet over there.

Anthony poked his head out to take a look, then greeted everyone to go over, and then everyone saw two golden skeletons standing to the side with lowered eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

Anthony asked Du Luo Ken in a low voice: "What's the situation?"

"Beat them for half a day according to the soul, they wouldn't soften, later the Lord showed his finger bone, and they softened. They should be His Majesty's direct subjects." Du Luo Ken replied in a low voice.

"Oh? Then did you ask anything?"

"Yes." Du Luo Ken said in a low voice: "The King above is not their King."
