Chapter 241 - 241 The Skeleton Leader's Betrayal?
241 The Skeleton Leader’s Betrayal?
When they reached the entrance of the White Bone Dojo, the three of them followed Li Yao in.
Because the hall in front of the door and the back hall were separated by a bone wall, Li Weixin and the others did not see the skeleton leader and the skeleton soldiers led by Monian.
There was only a slot machine made of bones standing there.
After getting used to the… “style” of this building, the three of them relaxed a little.
“Alright, wait here first. I’ll go over there to take a look.”
“By the way, remember not to run around. Otherwise… you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
Hearing Li Yao say this, the three of them hurriedly shook their heads.
What a joke. They were not tired of living! They wouldn’t go running around in such a strange place!
Seeing that Li Yao was about to leave and Mo Nian had yet to appear, Li Weixin gritted his teeth and mustered his courage to ask,
“Young Master Li, where’s Elder Mo Nian? I want to pay my respects to him. The minister also asked me to greet him.”
Li Yao, who had just stepped out of the entrance of the White Bone Dojo, stopped and turned to look at Li Weixin, who was flattering him.
“You definitely don’t want to see him. He’s in a bad mood now.”
“That’s all. We’ll talk about it when the time comes. Remember not to run around!”
“Don’t touch anything either.”
With that said, Li Yao directly left the White Bone Dojo.
He had to find out what had happened.
Why did the Truth Corporation come here for a business trip for no reason?
Now, those polluters were looking for him everywhere. If someone else sneaked in, he could not guarantee that he could defend against that level seven spatial mutant.
Even someone as powerful as his teacher had been ambushed and killed by that unexpected method.
Not to mention him.
After Li Yao left the White Bone Dojo, the soul fire in Zha Gu’s eye sockets, who was sitting on the throne behind the bone wall, began to flicker again.
“Hehe ~”
“The smell of fresh soul flames!”
“Yes, as expected of my good clerk!”
“Although I can’t directly enjoy their souls,—”
“Since you’ve entered my territory, it’s only right for you to help me a few times, right?”
After muttering to himself for a while, Zha Gu slowly stood up from the throne and raised the staff in his hand.
Squeak ~
There was a sound of friction.
Li Weixin and the others, who were sizing up this strange palace, saw the door suddenly close by itself. Their hearts suddenly sped up and they began to be vigilant.
“Who is it? Who’s here?!”
Li Weixin looked around the palace and finally heard rather crisp footsteps behind the bone wall behind him.
The three of them immediately retreated until they reached the door. After they had nowhere to retreat, they looked at the bone wall nervously.
When they saw a two-meter-tall door suddenly open in the tight bone wall, the three of their hearts were about to jump into their throats.
In particular, when Zha Gu, who was covered in a cloak, walked out with his staff with five skeletons covered in bones but could still walk freely like humans, Li Weixin felt that he was about to suffocate.
This…
Where had Li Yao brought him?!
Just as the three of them looked at the skeletons in front of them in fear, they suddenly heard a rather hoarse voice from the cloaked man.
“I’m the skeleton leader of the Land of the Undead that controls billions of powerful undead warriors.
“Mortals, why did you barge into my territory?”
Hearing this last question, Li Weixin’s lackey directly rolled his eyes and immediately fainted.
Yes, he fainted quite directly.
The person holding the whip tried his best not to faint. His entire body trembled as he held the whip horizontally in front of his chest, hoping to bring him some comfort.
Li Weixin looked at his two useless subordinates and could only brace himself and choose to face them himself.
“Um… Sir, we… we didn’t barge into your territory on purpose.”
“This, this… Yes, someone brought us here.”
Hearing the person in front of him betray his clerk so decisively, Zha Gu was slightly disappointed.
This human was too spineless.
How was he supposed to show off his methods by scaring them?
Yes, but there seemed to be no need to show it much.
Compared to the human lord called Lin Ye, these three humans simply did not make Zha Gu want to attack.
Thinking of this, Zha Gu raised its staff slightly, and then three more ribs fell off its body.
Just like before, after chanting an obscure incantation, it “sent” these three ribs to Li Weixin.
“On account of your first offense, as long as you help me collect 30 fresh souls, I can forgive you.
“Otherwise…”
At this point, Zha Gu suddenly pointed his staff at the three of them—
Three gray lights entered the glabella of Li Weixin and the other two.
Then, a faintly discernible white skeleton pattern appeared on the forehead of everyone, including the unconscious follower.
“Before sunset, if you don’t collect so many fresh souls, you can only use your souls to compensate.”
“Do you understand? Mortal!”
Looking at the three ribs floating in front of him and the light that had just flown into their minds when they were caught off guard, Li Weixin could not find a reason to refuse.
His life was in the hands of the cloaked man in front of him. He had no choice but to listen!
After trembling as he received the three ribs, Li Weixin swallowed and carefully said,
“Um… Lord, may I ask what a new soul is?”
Hearing this question, Zha Gu looked at Li Weixin and smiled silently.
“For a period of time after a human’s life disappears, their soul will remain in their body.
“You only need to gently place the artifact in your hand on the corpse. When the runes on it light up, it means that you’ve collected a soul.
“Do you understand?”
Li Weixin hurriedly nodded.
“Understood, understood.”
“Then, then let’s do it now?”
Zha Gu nodded.
Then, he waved his hand and the door of the White Bone Dojo that had just closed opened again.
“Remember, don’t cause unnecessary trouble.
“Otherwise, I won’t protect you.”
Yes, if that human leader finds out about this, he’d burn those three ribs.
With no evidence, he shouldn’t cause trouble for me, right?
Zha Gu’s Soul Fire, who felt that he had scored full marks for his scheme, began to flicker again.
Looking at the three of them gradually leave the bone territory, it could not help but roar with laughter.
“Hehehehe!”
After Li Weixin and the others came out of the White Bone Dojo, they looked at the True Dojo hundreds of meters away and suddenly wanted to cry.
In the first place… they were only here to buy something!
How did things develop to this?
“Assistant Li, w-what should we do?”
The man with the whip looked at Li Weixin.
It was the same for his lackeys.
He, who had just fainted, was still stunned.
They only knew that at this moment, they had already been incorporated by the master of the bone palace and had become traitors.
Li Weixin looked at the ribs in his hand and gritted his teeth.
“What else can we do?”
“Go out and find someone!”
“In any case, Jiangzhou is not Zhongzhou. With your level five strength, as long as we hide a little, we will definitely not be discovered so easily.
“As long as we don’t attack in a densely populated city, it won’t take long for 30 people.”
Li Weixin’s suggestion was agreed by the two of them.
Then, the three of them circled the dojo and returned to the academy from the exit.
After coming out of the academy, Li Weixin turned on his communicator and looked at the map of Jiangzhou City. He asked around and finally chose a destination—
In an old city area, the people living there were basically people who did the lowest level jobs in Jiangzhou City.
Or they were simply some refugees who had sneaked in from outside the city. It could be said that the risk factor was extremely low.
“Hehe, thank you, Jiangzhou City Hall. If not for the fact that this is a poor and remote place, we would probably be in trouble ~”
