Chapter 1778: Creating Space

Although Xia De had never held a formal advancement ceremony, he knew that the advancement ceremonies for ring-warlocks were quite complicated. Back then, the doctor's substitute material for the fifth-to-sixth-ring advancement, the "Fake Philosopher's Stone," indirectly dragged the group members into the "Lake View Manor God-Descending Incident"... Of course, it was also possible that it was purely because the doctor's luck was bad.

But fortunately, Lei Xia was much richer than Dr. Schneider. She only needed to prepare herself mentally and invite Xia De, who had helped Duo Luo Qian advance, to come and help her when the time came.

In short, although Lei Xia had been tired recently, all tasks were progressing in an orderly manner. Tomorrow was Saturday, and she accepted Xia De's invitation to watch a play at the opera house tomorrow night, and smiled and teased:

"It's a pity that A Jieli Na is not here this time; I don't know who to find to watch the door for us."

Bidding farewell to Lei Xia, Xia De took advantage of his free time in the morning to specifically go to the dilapidated house outside the village of Lower Griol near the Green Lake City Public Cemetery, and found the corpse-ghost Mr. Nicholas Green who lived in the ancient underground tomb, and felt very sorry that he didn't see that interesting and philosophical sheep again.

Mr. Green indeed kept his promise and still lived here. After being called out by Xia De and accepting the roast chicken as a gift, Xia De stated the purpose of his visit:

"Next week, I invited the descendants of the Edward family to have dinner together. Members of the fifth and sixth generations who are alive have all come, and besides that, two who are dead have also come."

The time was actually tonight, and only one who was dead came, but Xia De didn't tell the truth because he was related to the "ancestor" on the island:

"Do you want to come together? See your family members. I think they won't mind that you have become an undead. At least, your son and daughter won't mind."

Mr. Green, who was originally squatting on the side gnawing on the roast chicken, stopped eating and was dazed for a moment:

He opened his mouth, threw the remaining half of the chicken in, chewed the meat and bones, and then swallowed them into his stomach together:

"A family gathering? I really didn't expect that there would actually be such a day."

He burped and leaned comfortably against the wall of the dilapidated house. Outside was the sound of drizzling rain; the spring in the Xia De Lake area was truly rainy:

"In this way, I know the whereabouts of the three people of the third generation, and I also know the whereabouts of the five people of the second generation. Of the five people of the second generation, three boys are now liches; only the whereabouts of your mother, I am still not sure."

Mr. Green laughed dryly:

In fact, there was also a "witch," but that couldn't be said. And Green didn't know if Megan and Audrey becoming witches was also part of the plan.

"More than two hundred years of time, all the stories, all the destinies, are concentrated in our discussion just now. Green Lake, Xia De Lake, everything was planned long ago. The multiplying family, the spreading roots, generation after generation of descendants, one person after another... That's how it is. Look, the ancestor has done so many things; do you really think you can defeat him?"

Green was silent for a moment:

The corpse-ghost shivered; ordinary undead didn't have such fearful emotions:

"Before they died, the ancestor fed them fake-death potions and stole their bodies after they were buried."

The corpse-ghost shrugged very humanly:

"So look, after the second generation of the family, the only real dead person is actually me. Ha~ Leaving aside the two children of Uncle Alphonse, it is said that they are very capable themselves, but the other two have relied on the ancestor to live until now. The ancestor saved them, why couldn't he save me? This is also one of the reasons why I am unwilling to land on the island. He is too biased toward me!"

Green was shocked:

"Compared to what my mother's soul encountered, compared to the threats my children encountered, compared to the encounters of my other blood relatives, what I find most difficult to understand is that the ancestor actually dabbled in the power of demons. Those evil spirits of the Third Era are the enemies of all intelligent life. The ancestor... I revere him, respect him, but I don't understand his behavior."

The 【Tyranny Club】 and the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 were organizations that secretly supported the 18th-ring diviner, just like the 【Drowned Sect】, but they were hidden very deeply, and Green hadn't encountered them yet.

Green looked at Mr. Green, who nodded, his tone a bit sad:

Green's eyes became sharp; he felt he was about to hear something extraordinary.

"I actually know many things, I just didn't decide whether to say them last time. Ask, limited to one question, I will tell you everything I know."

"Do you know the seven people of the second and third generations?"

"My great-grandfather, the second son of the second generation, Sloth Green Lake, because of his fear of death after death, voluntarily accepted the transformation and accepted the power of evil things, turning into a wriggling mass of tentacles. He has been assisting the ancestor on the island to complete various tasks. When the weather is clear, I go out for a walk at night, and occasionally I can see him walking on the water."

Mr. Green had learned to become an undead expert from books, so he naturally knew what "lich" meant:

"The three people of the third generation are all alive; you know more than I do; there are five people in the seventh generation where I am. Theoretically, three people died. But in fact, of the three who died, besides me right in front of you, the son of the eldest uncle of the second generation, Hornheim, and the daughter of the second uncle, Green Lake, actually didn't die at all."

"He was transformed into a demon by the ancestor and demons. Yes, a very terrifying thing. As for my grandfather's brother, the eldest son of the third generation, Envy Green Lake, who died young, he actually didn't die either. He was raised by my grandfather in a secret room under a well since he was a child, conducting various experiments on immortality, and has lived until now as an ordinary person, over a hundred years old. Finally, the youngest daughter of the third generation, Gluttony Green Lake, who never married, she actually..."

Mr. Green took a long time to recover from the shock:

"If I hadn't known that the bodies of the three uncles of the second generation were also made into corpse-ghosts after they died, I would probably be even more unhappy."

"A completely expected question. Yes, yes, I know everything, everything. Why be so surprised? Did you think I just stayed down there every day reading and doing experiments? Let's talk from the descendants to the ancestors."

"Ghosts, evil things, immortals, demons, experimental mixed-blood half-dragons, three liches, hiding souls, you are a corpse-ghost, two cultists, ordinary people, ring-warlocks... You were right last time, your family composition is truly complete. Oh, the ghost refers to the eldest daughter of the second generation who died young. She left the Xia De Lake area early, and returned a few days ago."

He seemed to find balance in it, but Green couldn't help but say:

"I don't know much about this. They were all dead people before Green Lake Town was abandoned. I never saw them when I was alive, and my mother didn't talk much about them. The current news is that the eldest daughter of the second generation who died young, Luo De Green Lake, is said to be the only one who found peace. She was the ancestor's first child; the ancestor probably knew what family affection was back then..."

"I'll ask a question: How much do you know about the whereabouts and current situation of the dead Green Lakes?" Green didn't answer.

"Just consider it as thanking you for fulfilling my mother's last wish. Although I didn't say it, I think you must be holding this dinner at the Green Lake Hotel, right?"

"Didn't die? How is that possible?" "I'm not going."

"My grandfather's sister, the youngest daughter of the third generation, Gluttony, she actually loved my grandfather, her brother Pride Green Lake, deeply. After my grandfather was transformed into a demon, she also voluntarily accepted the power of demons, and after experiments and drinking potions that the ancestor obtained from the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 later, she gained the power of a dragon and turned into a half-demon, half-dragon monster."

"That is a family scandal, young man. I really don't want to tell you those things, but I know you need that information."

"The third generation, my grandfather, who was the last lord of Green Lake Town, Pride Green Lake, was the second son. He encountered something very terrifying... a demon."

"The two who faked death in the second generation: Uncle Hornheim's son, Jarvis Green Lake, was arranged by the ancestor to join the 【Tyranny Club】; he is now a believer of the 【God of Tyranny】; Uncle Green Lake's daughter, Nadia Fu Lun, was arranged by the ancestor to become a member of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 composed of believers of the evil god 【Dragon-Eating Demon】. However, my cousin hasn't had any news for a long time."

"This..."

"Actually, you are meeting me now, the ancestor might have expected it long ago... Continue."

"This..." "What's wrong?"

"I respect my mother's will. After my mother passed away, I sent her into the lake with a traditional lake burial. She really died, and her soul returned to the central island of Xia De Lake. But according to my investigation over the years, my mother's soul is unwilling to be controlled by the ancestor. She is a kind person and is unwilling to be controlled by the ancestor to do evil, so she escaped. I believe my mother's soul is bound by the ancestor and cannot stay away, so she has been drifting on this land until now, but I can't find her."

Green understood Mr. Green's mood at this time very well, and he summarized softly:

Mr. Green covered his face:
