Chapter 1438: Lost

One vampire ancestor’s life could be used to open the gate once. It was much more extravagant and time-consuming than to ask a living vampire ancestor to lead the way.

Lin Yun inserted the key of nightmares into the keyhole on the gate, and gently turned the key. The gate then glowed.

He asked Agalon and the others to pass through the gate and leave first. He then transformed into the skeleton king again, and smacked the skull on the surface of the scythe of death.

“Spit out the fat kid’s tail.”

The skull opened its mouth and roared, unwilling to give away the fat kid’s tail.

“If you don’t spit it out, you’re going to have to stay here forever. You won’t get a single soul.”

The skull opened and closed its mouth quickly, letting out short and hasty shrieks. Lin Yun, on the other hand, mercilessly smashed it again.

“There’s no time to waste. You have three seconds. Either you spit it out, or you stay here forever.”

The skull shut up and stopped screaming. When Lin Yun pretended that he was throwing it away, the skull finally opened its mouth unwillingly, and spat out its tail for the fat kid.

Pa. Lin Yun slapped it again.

“Where’s the other one? Don’t say that’s all. If that’s all, just stay here while I look for the countless soul fires in the outside world…”

Hearing that, the skull completely caved in. It slowly spat out the fat kid’s other tail, as if it were constipating. After that, the light in the skull’s eye sockets was gone, and it turned into an immobile statue.

Lin Yun was amused. The tiny skull on the scythe of death seemed to be throwing a tantrum. It sank into the scythe of death, and didn’t come out again.

The fat kid’s tail was thrown back to him, allowing him to fly again.

Looking at Lin Yun who was about to enter the gate, the fat kid seemed quite reluctant.

“Will you come again?”

While talking, the fat kid had a bite of the cake, leaving cream all over his face. Then, he seemed to think that it was too wasteful. He wiped off the cream with his claws, and sucked them for a long time.

Lin Yun had taken out a lot of food. Besides cake, there was also roast meat in the space ring, which was for Marianna, but the fat kid got all of it.

“Alright, our contract is over. The food is all yours. Take your time. That’s all the food I have.”

The fat kid quickly waved its tail, and picked up all the stuff. Then, he looked at Lin Yun regretfully again.

“Then will you come again?”

Lin Yun was quite amused. Even the Leopard Tail Worm that emerged in midair with an old face had flown away. He couldn’t bear watching this any longer.

“Do you want to see me, or just the nice food?”

The fat kid grinned, and shouted out without hesitation. “I want to see you, of course. You’re quite interesting. You’re much more interesting than the things here. As you said, we’re friends who have shared a gun. But you haven’t told me yet. What’s a gun?”

Then, hesitating for a moment, the kid asked in a low voice, “If you come again, we’ll be friends; surely you will bring nice food for your friends, right?”

Lin Yun shook his head, and waved at the fat kid. He then entered the gate and disappeared.

As the gate was closed, the vampire that was struggling desperately on its surface became active. Only a few seconds later, the entire gate as well as the alchemy arrays exploded into pieces.

The fat kid sadly counted the delicious food he acquired, and looked back at the gate that had just exploded…

Meanwhile, in Jophany’s castle, Jophany’s limbs had been tied up by a transparent ring. Adding the ring on his neck, all the five rings were pulling his body separately, as if they were going to tear him apart.

“Dereksey, you’re challenging King Fogus’ authority. You will be punished miserably. Damn you, bastard. Sir Buddy is King Fogus’ most trusted subordinate, yet you’ve trapped him in the Kingdom of Nightmares. If you want to die, that’s fine, but don’t get me involved…

“Don’t presume that nobody knows where you hide your phylactery. King Fogus will surely break it…”

Jophany was shackled airborne. There was no telling what the five transparent rings were, but they seemed to have locked up all of Jophany’s magic power and abilities.

Outside Jophany’s castle, the black serpent was gone. The broken bodies of the dark creatures paved the ground outside the castle. The black forest seemed to have been erased, leaving nothing but ashes within a dozen kilometers of the castle.

All of Jophany’s subordinates had been ripped apart miserably. The world was filled with a heavy stench of blood. The power of death was multiple times more abundant than before.

Jophany’s castle seemed to have been cut apart too. Its upper half was completely gone. The room which had a gate was exposed to the sky.

A lich who wore a black robe, and had the face of a dry corpse floated in front of the skeleton gate quietly.

“Jophany, you are a filthy and dirty dark creature. The only reason you’re still alive is because I need you to be. You’ll still be alive even if I cut off your tongue.”

His voice was so creepy that it sounded like the desolate wind of death in the dark night. It was full of coldness and wickedness.

Instantly, Jophany became even paler, and he couldn’t help but stop cursing. But the next moment, Jophany continued cursing with bloodshot eyes.

“Dereksey, you filthy lich—”

Hardly had he cursed when his eyes widened, and his mouth opened. His tongue gradually stuck out of his mouth, as if someone were plucking it out with pincers.

His tongue was lengthened and lengthened, until it was like a tight rope that might break apart any minute.

A few seconds later, the tongue spurted out of Jophany’s mouth with a tremendous amount of blood in a dull explosion. His miserable scream echoed in the space.

Blood was continuously gushing out of Jophany’s mouth. His scream sounded as weird as if he were holding a mouthful of phlegm in his throat.

Even though vampire ancestors were best known for their recovery abilities, Jophany could not stop the bleeding in his mouth after his tongue was pulled off. His blood flowed away like a river.

In Dereksey’s eyes, two spots of bluish light the size of needle tips were flashing, and his wicked and desolate voice echoed again.

“Not bad. You’re a lot quieter now. Jophany, you’d better keep silent because you’ll live even if I pull off your arms, and I only need you to be alive…

“I simply don’t want to fight Fogus, but don’t think that I’m scared of him. Fogus hasn’t given you any command, either. All your orders came from me.

“You stupid and filthy vampires are only useful when I need to enter the Kingdom of Nightmares. Do you pieces of garbage not know modesty at all?

“Nobody has ever left the Kingdom of Nightmares. I should’ve killed all of you morons sooner. But that’s alright. Whoever walks out will die here…”

Dereksey’s wicked and creepy voice echoed unpredictably, and fear suddenly popped up in Jophany’s eyes.

Damn it. Have all my brothers been tricked by this goddamn lich?? If King Fogus never gave us any command, why did he send Sir Buddy here? Was he trying to get rid of Dereksey?

Oh my God, Dereksey’s phylactery is in the Kingdom of Nightmares…

Yes, that must be the case. That’s the only reason why he’s so concerned about the Kingdom of Nightmares and why he tricked my brothers into entering the Kingdom of Nightmares. This bloody lich…

King Fogus must be well aware of that. That’s why he sent Sir Buddy here to the Kingdom of Nightmares alone. He was aiming for Dereksey’s phylactery…

Jophany was shocked and frightened, but he didn’t dare to struggle any longer. He was too weak to get involved in the conflict between the King of the Undead and the Bloody Lich. He might completely die if he took one step wrong.

Jophany was terrified. His body was controlled, and his abilities were sealed. He couldn’t escape even if he wanted to…

All of a sudden, the screaming skull on the gate became active. The gate creaked and opened slowly, emitting dazzling brilliance.

The Bloody Lich was still floating still as he watched the gate slowly open.

When the gate was half opened, it suddenly exploded. The entire castle was caught in the destructive waves and obliterated into ashes. Dazzling brilliance spread out, and covered a radius of a couple of kilometers.

After the dazzling brilliance disappeared, endless darkness arose, and seemed about to swallow everything.

Dereksey glanced at the expanding darkness with his tiny eyes, and slowly turned around, ready to leave.

Jophany looked at the destroyed castle. The fright in his eyes was finally replaced by desperation.

I’m completely screwed. If King Fogus knows that the skeleton king he personally trained has died here, I’ll certainly be doomed.

In such a short amount of time, more than half of the vampire ancestors have perished. How long has Dereksey been planning these things?

He couldn’t have just come up with the plan. When all vampire ancestors perish, nobody will be able to access the Kingdom of Nightmares. If he keeps his phylactery in the Kingdom of Nightmares, nobody will be able to destroy it and his soul. Even King Fogus won’t be able to get rid of him…

Everything is over…
