Chapter 596: I'm So Anxious I Could Come Back to Life

~9 min read 1,694 words

"Of course I've heard of it. Isn't the Knowledge God in the Hero Legend of the God Realm called Negris?" Negris replied.

"Oh, so that's how it is. It seems it's a duplicate name. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Where is the Mourning Skeleton? Where is it?" The Lord of Silence smiled and changed the subject.

Negris felt a bit strange, but couldn't say what was strange, so he hurriedly called Anthony and the others over.

Next was naturally the transaction. Both sides had already agreed on the transaction process. People from the Dulaite family had already boarded the Starburst Array in advance, familiarizing themselves with the operation process of the entire array and practicing the steps to take over the array.

Of course, the top priority was to check the various hidden "backdoors" of the array, such as a teleportation array or explosive device in some corner. Originally, it was very difficult to check these things in such a large creation. Even if it was fine, it was impossible to dismantle the array to check, and there would definitely be omissions.

But the Life God could make this kind of check foolproof. Before this, its pollen had already spread throughout the Starburst Array. Where there were abnormal magic and divine power elemental reactions, it would definitely know.

The Life God did indeed discover many abnormal reactions and had already notified Du Luo Ken in advance. Du Luo Ken projected onto an alchemical construct, checked these places, identified some "backdoors," and made marks, preparing to clear them all at once when receiving them.

baimengshu.

With the joint efforts of the Life God and the Alchemy Magician, Negris dared to agree to this transaction. Otherwise, he would rather have the Starburst Array hanging over his head every day than exchange it.

However, for everyone, whether they could use the Starburst Array was not important; it was more important to make the enemy unable to use this thing. The lowest acceptable situation for them was for the Starburst Array to completely fail.

Of course, Ang didn't accept it. He still wanted to use the Starburst Array to grow vegetables. But can a good Starburst Array grow vegetables, and can a broken Starburst Array not grow vegetables?

"Alright, the transaction begins. The Mourning Body is here. You can send someone to check it," Anthony presided over the entire exchange procedure, first letting Flash Feiti protect the Mourning Body and letting the Warlock Alliance people come over to check.

Ladiyad came over to check, confirmed it was the Mourning Body, not the painted kind, and then put a mark on the body before turning back to nod at the Lord of Silence.

Anthony said: "Confirmed it is what you need. Please let your people withdraw from the Starburst Array."

The Lord of Silence nodded with a smile, and a ripple erupted from the stone tablet, spreading out.

Not long after, the rings on the outer periphery of the Starburst Array suddenly scattered.

The Starburst Array was in the shape of rings sleeved on a main axis. That main axis was the direction of the Starburst launch. Wherever the main axis aimed, the Starburst would blast in that direction.

Now, those outermost rings on this main axis all scattered into airships, ladders, and blocks.

There were more huge sealed blocks, which had no power and were dragged away one by one by ladders and airships, leaving the Starburst Array.

From the ground, it could be clearly seen that the Starburst Array was a circle smaller.

"Ku Ba Da!" Du Luo Ken looked at the sky and suddenly cursed.

"What's wrong?" Anthony turned to ask: "Is there anything wrong?"

"The power of the Starburst Array is provided by those airships and ladders. After they withdraw, the Starburst Array cannot adjust its direction," Du Luo Ken said.

"Oh." Anthony replied and stopped speaking.

Ladiyad looked at them strangely. Just this?

They were tricked out of a big one on their side, and they weren't angry?

There was nothing to be angry about. Everyone had long guessed that the other party couldn't possibly hand them an intact Starburst Array, and even suspected that the Warlock Alliance itself couldn't launch the Starburst.

And Du Luo Ken had long analyzed that the power of the Starburst Array was likely provided by airships and ladders, just didn't expect the other party to drag away even those blocks without power.

If the other party didn't trick them, everyone would feel uneasy instead. Selling it so cheaply, could it be fake?

The entire withdrawal operation had long been prepared, just driving airships and ladders to drag them away, and they withdrew very quickly.

"Our side enters the takeover procedure. Step one, verify various prohibition permissions."

"Step two, clear various abnormal areas."

"Step three, install defense and self-destruction prohibitions."

Once the defense and self-destruction prohibitions were installed, even if the Warlock Alliance wanted to go back on their word, Ang's side could blow up the core of the Starburst Array.

This was a relatively slow process, but all equipment had been prepared in advance, and the Dulaite family, under Du Luo Ken's remote guidance, successfully installed them in place.

However, before installing the prohibitions, Ang's side needed to hand over the skeleton except for the skull.

Flash Feiti twisted the head of the Mourning Skeleton, twisted the skull off directly, and handed the rest to Ladiyad.

That rude action startled Ladiyad, who shouted urgently: "Hey, be gentle, what if you twist it broken?"

Flash Feiti said dismissively: "If it's twisted broken, then it's fake. True Mourning, can't be twisted broken."

Ladiyad rolled his eyes at him desperately. Even if it couldn't be twisted broken, it wouldn't do. This skeleton was already theirs, and he would feel heartache if it was scratched.

Silver Coin's eyes lit up: "True Mourning, can't be twisted broken. This advertising slogan is really good. Next time I sell Mourning Skeletons, I'll advertise like this."

Now it was Anthony and the others' turn to roll their eyes. This profiteer goblin really dared to think. Next time? Mourning Skeletons aren't things that are everywhere on the street.

After the Warlock Alliance got the skeleton of the body, they placed it on the stone tablet. At this moment, the phantom of the Lord of Silence was gone, leaving only endless black energy overflowing from the stone tablet, wrapping around the skeleton.

Negris whispered: "He is fitting the body. Such a skilled technique. Could this Lord of Silence also be an undead?"

Void Ghost Hayden, one of the Twelve Joint Chairs, could be an undead, so it was nothing strange for the Lord of Silence to be an undead.

It's just that the leaders of the two forces, the Warlock Alliance and the Undead Empire, who have been hostile for thousands of years, are both undead. It feels a bit strange. Doesn't this become an undead civil war?

The fit between the body and the soul is a factor affecting the flexibility of the skeleton. The higher the fit, the more flexible the action will be.

Ang could only lift the two arms of the Black Crystal Body, which was due to the low fit, and it was the low fit caused by insufficient soul strength.

Even if the soul strength is sufficient, it takes practice to flexibly drive the body, otherwise, one will be unaccustomed. Every time Ang changed bones before, he would be unaccustomed for a few days.

The Lord of Silence was familiarizing himself with the body on this side, and the Dulaite family was taking over the Starburst Array on the other side. Neither side played any tricks. Two days later, the handover process was completed, and Flash Feiti handed the final skull to Ladiyad.

Ladiyad connected the skull to the skeleton for the first time. Very quickly, all the black energy on the stone tablet frantically drilled into the skull, and many purple soul flames also emerged from the stone tablet, frantically drilling into the skull.

On Ang's side, everyone was energized. Negris shouted in the soul network: "Mourning Soul, there is a Mourning Soul in the stone tablet! Ku Ba Da, could the soul he used for projection be a Mourning Soul?"

Inside Negris's fat dragon body, there was a Soul Heart, which was originally Soul Fire, but had been fed into a Soul Heart by Ang. The body's soul was vigorous, and Negris could do more things. At least his vision was farther than when he was Soul Fire.

He could also exert the strength of the Soul Heart when fighting normally... at least the resistance to being beaten was at the Soul Heart level.

No one would use a Mourning Soul to act as a projection soul, right? Isn't this too wasteful?

The soul in the stone tablet quickly transferred to the Mourning Body, and the skeleton turned over and sat up, purple flames burning in the empty eye sockets. Sure enough, it was a Mourning Soul.

That is to say, after the soul transferred to the Mourning Body, this Lord of Silence was at the level of the Mourning Lord from soul to body.

The Lord of Silence twisted his neck and stretched his legs, and the joints on his body crackled. After adapting, soul flames erupted from the Lord of Silence's body, quickly armoring his body.

Then, a low voice sounded: "Congratulations on taking over the Starburst Array. From now on, the task of maintaining the balance of the void will be handed over to your Light Church."

"???" A nonsensical sentence left everyone stunned. Balance of the void?

Only Flash Feiti widened his eyes (crossed out)... widened his eye sockets (crossed out again)... stared out his soul, pointed at the soul armor on his body, and shouted in shock: "Locke?"

The Lord of Silence turned his head and said disdainfully: "I didn't expect that when I saw you again, you were already a dog of the Light."

"What? Dog of the Light? No... I... this... that, alas, how should I say it, I'm so anxious I could come back to life." ===== CHAPTER 597 =====
