Chapter 180: Master, take me with you!

"Andelu old man, do you know where to find fourth-tier undead-related extraordinary materials?"

Su Hao looked at Andelu, smiling as he asked.

No matter what, Andelu was once a sixth-tier necromancer, so he has some knowledge of undead-related extraordinary materials.

Perhaps in some place, among the legacy he left behind, there are some high-tier undead-related materials.

After all, Andelu just said that Su Hao learned the location of Wangling Hai from that spot in the Dark Forest.

This also means that the castle in the Dark Forest is merely one of Andelu's residences; he has similar dwellings elsewhere.

"High-tier undead-related extraordinary materials?"

After hearing Su Hao's question, Andelu blinked slightly, then showed a thoughtful expression.

Although Su Hao didn't say why he needed these materials, Andelu could still guess that Su Hao wanted them probably for a task left by the Death God.

So he was also very concerned about this matter.

If it were just ordinary fourth- or fifth-tier undead-related extraordinary materials, Andelu would have some in his former residence.

But since this matter involves the Death God's mission, it is a major affair concerning the Death God's awakening.

Too ordinary materials, Andelu naturally would not consider.

After some thought, Andelu suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"I've thought of it."

"There was once a black dragon that died in this gloomy dungeon; if you can find its skeleton, it would definitely be an excellent material."

"Black dragon?"

Upon hearing Andelu's words, Su Hao immediately recalled that the map of the gloomy dungeon had a dragon pattern.

The note above reads—

【Possibly the skeleton left after a giant dragon's death, containing mighty dragon aura, third-tier beings cannot approach, specifics unknown!】

Perhaps that place is exactly what Andelu old man meant by the black dragon's place of death.

Even Andelu old man, who was once a sixth-tier necromancer, said it was an excellent material, so it surely won't be bad.

Coincidentally, Su Hao's purpose for coming out this time is to fully explore the gloomy dungeon.

For now, only the exploration of Wangling Hai is finished; there remains a village shrouded in darkness, as well as the location of that dragon emblem.

Anyway, it's on the way, so Su Hao immediately decided to first see if he could obtain the black dragon's skeleton, then talk later.

If he can successfully obtain the black dragon's skeleton and its effect is good, then he will use it to construct the Death Tombstone.

If the effect is not good, he will again seek sponsorship from Andelu old man.

Anyway, Andelu old man is dead, so his legacy is of no use to himself.

As the saying goes, "water from one's own field does not flow to others' fields"; rather than let Andelu old man's legacy fall into others' hands, it's better for Su Hao to take it himself.

"Andelu old man's legacy is mine; I said it, no one dare snatch it!" Su Hao smiled slightly, then stopped thinking about it and turned his gaze to the surrounding battlefield.

Without the powerful boss Hatred, the undead creatures in the black mist are no match for skeleton warriors and brutal magic oxen; the battle situation can be said to be completely one-sided.

As the undead creatures in the black mist continually decrease, the kill efficiency of the brutal magic oxen and skeleton warriors also sees a considerable increase.

Even though the brutal magic oxen have fallen into weakness after using the berserk skill, they can still, thanks to their current numerical advantage, suppress and strike the third-tier headless knights.

Of course, more importantly, after this period of rest, the bone dragon has rejoined the battlefield.

It is a top-tier third-tier undead creature; initially, it lost regrettably because there were too many headless knights.

Now the opponent no longer has a numerical advantage, and the bone dragon itself can also benefit from the Death Scythe's boost. Killing headless knights now is extremely easy.

A casual swipe can knock out a headless knight; a powerful exhale can fell an entire swath of undead creatures.

Gradually, the black mist over Wangling Hai begins to thin, and the undead creatures within it become scarcely visible.

When the bone dragon slays the last undead creature, the black mist also completely dissipates at that moment.

Afterwards, Su Hao had the skeleton warriors and brutal magic oxen collect all the undead creatures' corpses and store them one by one in the storage bag.

Fortunately, Su Hao had crafted a light storage bag with enormous capacity; otherwise, there would really be no way to hold so many undead corpses.

Even if the Death God is likely on our side, there are still the two unknown factors of Andelu and the bone dragon beside us.

Su Hao does not want to reveal too much, so he has no plan to refine the corpses on the spot.

At the very least, he must wait until Andelu and the bone dragon return together with him to the sanctuary, and after they sign a contract, he can then fully relax.

Of course, whether to follow him back to the sanctuary is still up to Andelu and the bone dragon to decide.

"I intend to continue exploring the gloomy dungeon to see if I can find that black dragon's skeleton; what are your plans now—will you follow me or stay here?"

"Roar! (Of course I want to follow the master!)"

Without any hesitation, the bone dragon immediately made its choice.

It has wanted to see the outside world for more than just a day or two.

That is also why, after seeing Su Hao leave last time, it appeared so despondent.

Although it is merely a bone dragon, it nevertheless has a heart that longs for the sky.

It wants to see the blue sky, green trees, and red flowers that Andelu spoke of, and what they look like.

It also wants to see how other races besides undead creatures live.

But over these years, on one hand, it needs to await the arrival of the Chosen One.

On the other hand, it must also resist the erosion of the black mist.

This has resulted in it being unable to leave Wangling Hai, let alone the gloomy dungeon.

Now, all the undead creatures in the black mist have been completely slain.

The Chosen One has also appeared, so it naturally has no reason to remain in this dull, tasteless place.

However, whether it can leave here still depends on Andelu's nod.

Immediately, the bone dragon turned its gaze toward Andelu, with its azure flames on its body forming an expectant expression above its head.

"Roar! (Lord Andrew, the black mist has already dissipated; if you don't mind, let's follow the master and leave.)"

"If you don't mind, from now on the two of us will trouble you to look after us."

After a moment of silence, Andrew slightly nodded his head, agreeing to the Bone Dragon's suggestion to leave this place.

Just as the Bone Dragon said, the black mist has now dissipated, and the things left behind by the God of Death have also been handed over to Su Hao; there is no point for him to stay here any longer.

Moreover, after finding the Chosen One, he still has other missions; even if Su Hao doesn't say so, he will voluntarily suggest staying by Su Hao's side.

"Then let's go."

Afterwards, Su Hao confirmed the direction, then rode on the Bone Dragon's back, leading the great army toward the location of the giant dragon icon.
