Ark of the Immortal

Skadi silently cleaned up the blood on the sword, then wiped off the excess snowflakes on the sword with his hands, and hung the cloth strap behind him.

At this moment, dozens of mangled corpses were surrounding the two of them.

Some were burned into charcoal by the flames, and even their original appearance could not be seen. They would shatter with a gentle squeeze.

Some of them were cut open by the two of them with pure strength, and the bodies were divided into several pieces.

When the stage ended, the dancers also put away their dancing shoes and thanked their dance partners.

"Thanks."

Skadi came to the undead man and looked at the sparks and red lines still floating on his body.

"Even though I can handle it on my own, it feels good to have someone fighting with me."

It can only be said that this girl is very sincere. If you are an ordinary person, you may think that she is complaining about being troublesome.

But the undead are obviously not ordinary people.

To put things into perspective, the warrior in front of him did have the ability to annihilate these monsters by himself. He just accelerated the process.

"Well, you're welcome."

The undead man nodded, and as he breathed, the flame patterns on his body gradually dimmed, and finally disappeared completely.

Seeing this scene, Skadi reached out and touched the undead man's breastplate with some curiosity.

But the temperature on the breastplate was not very high, it was just enough to warm Skadi's palms in the cold wind.

The gray-white armor becomes darker after being burned by the flames, and maybe it will turn into gray-black after a while.

"Your flame is very strange. Is it your Origin Stone skill?"

Skadi expressed his doubts to the undead.

She has seen powerful flame source stone skills. But it was not as shocking as the immortal flames.

Just seeing that fire will cause you to have heart palpitations unconsciously.

It seems that the fire should not exist in this world, and it is a highly poisonous flame to everyone.

"no."

The undead man shook his head. He had always had a good impression of real warriors.

"Yes, the magic fire."

"Spell?"

Skadi tilted his head, a look of confusion on his face.

"Sarkaz's spell? I've never heard of a spell that can summon fire."

"no."

The immortal shook his head again and emphasized again.

"Yes, the magic fire."

Although he has never seen the so-called Sakaz's incantation, the undead know the essence of the incantation well.

The essence of magic is the worship of flame, and as a user of flame, the magician must cultivate his own magic flame if he wants to control the flame.

But does the flame worship the warm flame, or does it regard the flame as a consolation for being unable to contact the first fire?

No one knows, but the immortals who have been in contact with the First Fire can understand part of its meaning.

There is still a gap in Skadi's understanding, and the Immortals don't expect her to understand.

"It's different from Source Stone skills. It's not the same thing."

The undead man gave a brief explanation and lost interest in continuing to explain to Skadi.

"Just pretend that I can use fire."

Skadi nodded.

Although she still didn't understand it, at least she knew that it was different from Origin Stone skills.

For Skadi this is not difficult to understand. Because as a deep-sea hunter, a considerable part of the things she comes into contact with are different from the Source Stone.

After Skadi finished asking, the immortal also had a lot to ask.

He found a lot of interesting things during this hunt, and all kinds of questions were swirling in his mind for a while.

Seeing that the undead man was silent, Skadi naturally knew that he also had doubts. It's not just about Skadi's identity, but maybe more about the monsters he hunts.

Even though the undead fought alongside him, Skadi didn't want him to know too much.

"You have a lot of questions for me, don't you?"

Skadi said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you too much. But you should have noticed the difference between them and the creatures on Terra. What I'm worried about is not that you will fall into it, but that you will be infested by them."

Skadi spoke sincerely, and the undead man heard Skadi's worries.

"If you are haunted by the deep sea, you will never be able to return to your normal life. Although your strength is undoubted, please keep your distance from the deep sea until you are fully prepared. At least for now, their goal is It will only be me."

Skadi thought about it.

She thought again of the strange flames of the undead, which seemed to be able to burn away all filth.

The undead asked.

"Have you been hunting them?"

He finally saw something. The woman in front of him didn't seem to see the nature of those monsters clearly at all. She called them the deep sea probably just because of their appearance related to marine life.

But these twisted guys are actually mutations caused by being contaminated by the abyss.

Fortunately, after killing them, the will hidden behind them immediately left. At least now, the undead did not notice any danger.

Otherwise, the surrounding villages will be in danger.

"yes."

Skadi responded head-on to the undead's statement.

"But to be precise, while I was hunting them, these monsters were also hunting me. Even though we come from the same hometown."

She couldn't explain why, just like a migratory bird couldn't explain why it flew south. She just acted based on instinct and experience.

"There is only a thin line between the hunter and the prey. Although I am not fully prepared, they will not give me the chance to be fully prepared."

Skadi said indifferently, and she thought of Dales who died tragically under the influence of the deep sea.

"The prey dies, but the hunter never dies, so I became a hunter."

The undead thought for a while, trying to find anything related to the abyss in Skadi's words.

But alas, no.

Not only will the current question not be answered, but the undead may also receive some counter-questions.

Thinking of this, the undead man temporarily gave up his intention to raise questions.

Wait a minute, there are still several days before Skadi's employment is completed. In these days, Skadi may bring more information to the undead.

"Go back first, your companions are still waiting for you."

Skadi didn't want to continue the topic. So she simply interrupted the communication between the two and walked towards Bi Falcon Town.

The undead man looked back at the corpse on the ground.

We can't let these things freeze here like this. If someone discovers them, something might happen.

Then, the undead raised his right hand, and the magic fire ignited, turning into a huge billowing wave, sweeping away the limbs and blood on the ground.

The bodies of monsters that have lost signs of life are no longer as tough as before.

The flames swept away all traces of the battle in just a few seconds, and even the blood was evaporated, leaving a whole piece of land in the snow.

However, the wind and snow will soon cover this clearing again, and no one will find that a battle has been fought here again.

After disposing of the body, the undead man turned back and followed Skadi's pace.

Although Skadi's communication with the undead has ended, the undead is still thinking.

And his biggest concern now has changed from Skadi's origin to another issue, but this issue seems to be ignored by Skadi.

Where did these monsters come from?

Back at the hotel, old Benny didn't seem to hear the strange noise coming from the second floor at all, and he was still fast asleep.

At least when the immortal went upstairs, he heard the snoring on the first floor quite loudly.

I hope there are no insomniac guests tonight. Otherwise, I might not be able to sleep all night if I hear the strange cries of those monsters.

The undead man returned to his room.

The bonfire was still burning, but it was slightly smaller than when the undead left.

The warm air also spread to Skadi's room, which made Skadi stunned for a moment when he entered his room.

The undead man sat next to the bonfire, randomly picked two pieces from the firewood pile and threw them into the fire in front of him.

He raised his head and glanced at Keob sleeping on the bed.

The blond silly dog's mouth enlarged, revealing some sharp teeth, and there was drool hanging from the corners of his mouth, as if he had dreamed of delicious things in his dream.

The saliva reflected the light of the campfire, shining brightly and looking like little pearls.

Her sleeping position was even more strange, with the whole quilt wrapping herself together. But it happened to expose the lower half of the thigh a little lower.

It looked like it was caught between round pieces of bread.

I heard that in a country called Colombia, what is the name of a food?

hot dog?

The warm air brought by the bonfire also spread to Skadi's room along the gap opened by the undead.

This made Skadi stunned for a moment when he entered his room.

It's very warm and feels different from where I usually sleep.

Although Skadi's body is very tolerant of temperature. But who would refuse a warm resting environment?

Along the crumbling wall, Skadi could see the undead man sitting next to the campfire with his head bowed.

Tonight's battle was no accident, but the appearance of the undead was a complete accident.

The power to wield heavy weapons and almost perfect fighting skills.

The armor covering his whole body is not the strange flame of Origin Stone's skill.

And his body was completely unresponsive to Kaiji's screams.

This made Skadi even more curious about this weirdo, and even felt that he was more like a deep-sea hunter than herself.

Leaning against the wall, Skadi slowly sat down.

The wooden wall behind her was not as cold as the last time she leaned against it. The warmth spreading from the next door made Skadi feel a rare drowsiness.

The firewood burned quietly, occasionally exploding a few sparks and making a crackling sound.

Holding the big sword in his hand, Skadi rested his head on his knees, his red eyes covered by slightly heavy eyelids.

After a while, the originally vigilant bounty hunter relaxed his body and fell asleep peacefully.

How long had it been since she fell asleep like this?

Skadi herself couldn't remember.

73. Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite.

Early the next morning, the undead man raised his head, closed the book in his hand and put it next to him.

This book talks about the relationship between saints and gods, which makes the undead people become interested.

The book says that the saint can meet the gods and look directly into the existence of the gods.

And with the blessing of the gods, he received the protection given by the gods and was able to use the power of the gods through the holy bell.

He even listed in detail the previously recorded explanations of the saint's miracles.
