The Dean Has Arrived

The weather was gloomy, and even made people's mood become a lot lower.

Kamiyu has been praying since early in the morning that it will not rain today.

They were not far from Morag now.

The pothole city known as the plague cage was regarded as a cursed place by the people. Except for the regular team of escorting prisoners every quarter, only some daring traveling merchants would come to trade some lives with Morag's high-level officials. supplies.

So the road from the last city to Morag is all rough trails and no decent roads.

Once it rains, these trails turn into muddy roads no different from swamps.

It's a pity that his prayer didn't take effect. Before noon, light raindrops began to fall from the sky.

"How much longer do we have to go?"

Kamiyu turned on the rain-proof magic on the robe, brushed off the rainwater from his head, and asked Franken who was walking in front depressedly.

"It's coming soon, but we're going to another place now."

Although the students and professors of Edric College have long been used to Franken's abnormal appearance, in order not to cause unnecessary magic from outside, Franken still changed his dazzling white coat with Camille They have the same style of magic robes, even the screw on the head that is used to adjust their tone has been pulled out, and they are stored away. At the same time, they use dark blue cowboy hats to cover up their hair and the threaded holes on their temples. .

It is precisely because of this that now Franken's tone sounds flat, which makes people feel creepy.

"Damn thornweed, damn chrysalis..." Tanis, who was the weakest in the group, panted heavily while cursing the weeds that made it more difficult for him to move, and took the time to ask, "Professor, are you Want to try to lift the plague curse from the Plague Cage? Wouldn't it be better to go directly to Morag?"

Along the way, Franken also selected some revealable things from his past experiences and told them.

Franken didn't answer him directly, but quickly got into the bushes on the side of the road.

The little guys looked at each other, and finally followed in helplessly.

Then what caught their eyes was a cemetery.

Or rather, it used to be a cemetery.

At this time, the ground of the cemetery was covered with weeds, and the tombs inside looked dilapidated due to years of disrepair. Some skeletons that were probably dug out by animals could be seen everywhere, which was particularly prominent with the sparse light rain. There was a feeling of desolation.

Franken read the words on the tombstone and walked slowly between the two rows of graves.

Because it was the first time they saw such a desolate tomb, even Riddle Kameu and the others couldn’t help but feel terrified, let alone Dorothy—now the girl is hiding behind Kameu, pulling Kamiu’s body. Clothes, eyes closed and trembling forward.

Soon, Franken stopped in front of a tombstone with a corner missing.

Riddle, who was following behind him, boldly took a look. The tombstone was engraved with something sharp like 'Aijiaer, the spicer? Luo Miwei sleeps here forever, and no one can disturb her eternal sleep—Frankenstein who loves her'.

The crooked Schumerian language on the tombstone like a child learning to write is completely inferior to the beautiful epitaphs on the tombs on both sides, although the paint has faded.

But Franken took off the cowboy hat with his left hand and put it on his chest as if he saw some rare treasure. At the same time, he kept stroking the words over and over again with his bony right hand.

"Before Morag was sunk into the ground, I went back here and wanted to see my wife and children. But what I saw was Ejar's simple funeral..."

After a while, Franken said slowly: "I didn't come here to erect a tombstone for Aijiaer until everyone had left. At that time, in order to solve the source of the plague, I studied a lot of undead magic, and even more than once I had the idea of ​​resurrecting Aijiaer beside me in the form of a dead soul."

The unsteady voice and the surrounding environment vividly rendered the atmosphere of the story, and the little guys couldn't help but wait for Franken to continue.

"In the end, I suppressed that thought. The undead are not a complete existence. They are bound by various factors, unable to rest or sleep, and experience the pain of their own will forged in the fire of the soul day after day .” Franken looked at his hands, as if explaining something: “I can’t let Aijiaer become like that for my own selfishness. Let her return to Mother Earth without any worries For me, I am more happy than becoming that ugly existence."

"Professor..." For the first time, Kamiyu, who seemed to understand half understood, discovered that the back of the professor he was so afraid of was actually so thin.

It's like a shriveled old man who has exhausted his life's efforts and put all his dreams and hopes out, leaving only an empty shell.

His throat was a little dry and he didn't know what to say. The other little guys are pretty much the same.

"Who are you! What are you doing here?"

Suddenly, a strange man shouted from the east.

Kamiyu and the others turned their heads and found that it was a soldier wearing half armor.

Judging from the style of the opponent's half body armor, it is probably Morag's guard.

When Kamiyu was still having a headache how to communicate with the other party, the soldier felt despised because Franken didn't respond to his words, and was still half-kneeling in front of the tombstone, stroking the broken tombstone up.

"This is Morag, and no one can come near! If you don't hurry up, be careful, I will throw you into that plague cage!"

He drew his sword and swung it with bravado.

Then he saw the white-haired man in a robe standing up from the tombstone and turning his head to him.

The next moment, he saw a terrifying scene that he would never forget in his life.

The face of the white-haired man turned out to be that of a skeleton! There are also snakes and insects crawling in the two eye holes, which are extremely terrifying, and blood-red liquid is also constantly overflowing from between the opponent's bones.

The soldier let out a scream and wanted to turn around and run, but soon he found that he lost feeling in his feet. Looking down, a giant python made of white bones appeared on the ground at some point, tightly bound his legs, and then the giant python opened its mouth and swallowed him in one gulp! So he rolled his eyes and passed out like that...

"What's wrong with that guy?" Riddle, who had pulled out his wand nervously just now, saw that the other party suddenly pulled over, scratched his head in confusion, and asked strangely.

The smarter Tanis looked directly at Franken behind them.

"It's just the reverse use of fear aura and charm human beings." Franken shrugged at the soldier who was already foaming at the mouth: "I hope Goddess Qiyao blesses him from catching a cold or being caught by something because he sleeps in the wild on such a day." something to eat."

As he said, he put on his cowboy hat: "Also, ladies and gentlemen, I think we moved a little faster..." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
