Vegetable Skeleton's Exotic Land Reclamation

Chapter 446: Here Comes the Bait

Dad gave me a scepter that can inherit a hundred thousand troops, now the scepter is broken, what should I do?

Bartholo, the skeleton knight, is in this mood now, his heart is full of absurd and unreal feelings, the undead scepter will break? What should we do now?

They came up from the mountain road, but they couldn't see any people along the way. Originally, this mountain road was the only passage connecting Stromgarde to the outside world. There were always pedestrians and horses, even if it was a holiday or when it was raining and muddy, there would be people coming and going. Yes, absolutely not without seeing a single person.

Something must have happened, Basolo could even guess what happened, they saw too much all the way back.

The order collapsed, and all the cities were in chaos. Only those self-sufficient villages and towns can still maintain order, but with the collapse of the cities, this chaos will gradually spread to the villages and towns, until the whole world is engulfed in it.

Of course Basolo knew how serious the consequences would be, so two months ago, when he found that the skeletons in the cemetery were no longer coming out, he made a decisive decision and took his loyal subordinates to the City of Eternal Life to receive the scepter of immortality.

This kind of scepter was given to the lord before, and with it, he could command the undead guards of the cemetery. Basoro went to the city of immortality as a human being, which was an adventure in itself.

But fortunately, his identity as a skeleton knight played a role. The so-called skeleton knight refers to a knight who has been recognized by the undead horse.

Ordinary bone horses have no intelligence. Only bone horses above ashes have certain intelligence. Ordinary people can't command them. Only knights who are recognized by them can become skeleton knights.

Compared with ordinary horses, bone horses have great advantages. They can travel thousands of miles tirelessly, and as long as they are not afraid of their buttocks being worn out, they can ride on them all the time.

All the way to the City of Eternal Life unimpeded, the chaotic government affairs hall was still surprised by his arrival: "How did you come to get the scepter of immortality?"

Basolo said nervously: "Only the scepter of immortality can summon the undead guards of the cemetery to maintain the law and order of the city."

"How do I know, after you get the scepter, will you kill, rob, commit crimes? Create more evil?" the undead saint who is in charge of government affairs asked him.

Basolo said: "No matter how much I do evil, it is much better than the collapse of order. At most, I will hang my boss who bullied me before and pursue his wife. But when order collapses, many people will die. Our There is no food in the local area, the order collapses, and the whole city may starve to death."

The undead saint nodded, and complained: "You are very reasonable. This method is good. I will send someone to send the scepter immediately, so that the people with prestige in the city will come to maintain order first. Your Majesty has overplayed this time, alas. , how to clean up this mess, it's so annoying."

His Majesty? Undead king? Seeing that the undead saint in front of him dared to complain about the king, Basolo realized that the other party was not an ordinary undead.

But in the end, he didn't dare to ask the other party's name. After getting the scepter of immortality, they rushed back without stopping. Everything went smoothly, at least until they took out the scepter of immortality.

It is unheard of for the scepter to be damaged, but now it happens, what should I do?

The five knights looked at each other, went back to return the goods, and got another one?

Not to mention whether I can get another one, just thinking about traveling tens of thousands of kilometers and coming back makes me shudder.

The environment outside is not as safe as it was when they went there before. If the five of them make another trip, they don't know if they can come back alive.

What's the point of coming back alive? Stromgarde would have been deserted by then.

If the order in Stromgarde can be maintained for two months, it means that there is no danger of collapse, and it doesn't matter whether you want the scepter or not.

Everyone was at a loss when a voice rang out. When they looked up, they saw someone jumping down step by step from the terraced fields on the side of the cemetery, approaching them, and stretched out their hand and said, "Give it to me."

The tone was so natural that Basolo subconsciously wanted to pass the scepter over, and he raised his hand to react.

"Who are you? From the castle? Want this? Do you know what it is?" Basolo asked, "What's going on in the castle now? What are you doing here?"

"Grow vegetables, give them to me." Ange said again, reaching out his hand.

Basolo didn't expect Ang to reach out his hand, and before he could react for a while, the scepter was taken away.

Basoro was dumbfounded. He looked at his hands, and then at An Ge's hands. He was a little confused: "Your hands are pretty fast. Don't play with them. This is not a toy. Give it back to me."

Before he finished speaking, the scepter in Ange's hand suddenly burst into a blue flame, which was many times stronger than the flame that Basolo summoned for the first time, and the flame was about to burst out of his eye sockets.

"Eh? Not broken? Are you a Necromancer?" Basoro was surprised again.

Could it be that the scepter isn't broken, but it's just that he doesn't know how to use it?

Ange looked at the scepter a few times, then raised it towards the cemetery.

The cemetery at dawn is quiet...

"It's not like this, you have to cooperate with the password, first: get up, immortal soul, obey my orders... Forget it, let me do it." Basoro said, reaching out his hand to take back the power from Ang stick.

However, at this moment, the cemetery became commotion, and the closed crypts opened one by one, and the undead guards crawled out one after another. Standing in front of the cemetery and looking this way, the mountains and fields are full of faint blue light.

"This... I... I haven't finished reading my password yet, don't I need to finish reading it?" Basoro was stunned, reached out to take the scepter from Anger's hand, and moved towards the cemetery: "Immortal soul, come at my command."

The cemetery was quiet, and those undead guards stared at the blue light and stared in this direction.

"Huh? Can't do it? Get up, immortal soul, obey my command, wake up from the sleeping kingdom!" Basoro raised his scepter again, and shouted out the complete password.

The undead guards remained motionless, just looking at them like this.

"It still doesn't work, do you have any skills?" Basoro waved his scepter a few times to command the undead guards, and finally turned his gaze back to Ange helplessly.

"You come." He said and stuffed the scepter into An Ge's hand.

Anger actually doesn't need the scepter anymore. When he held it in his hand and ignited it, he received some information and understood its operating mechanism, so he was no longer interested. Otherwise, Barsolo would not be able to snatch it back so easily.

Looking at the scepter stuffed in, Ange raised it and waved it without any password. The undead guards were uniform, turned around silently and went back into the tomb, closing the flap door.

"Uh, don't... ouch, they're all back, you keep some to maintain order. You know how to use this thing, you take charge of it, promise me, use it to maintain the order of Stromgarde, don't use it to do evil, Okay?" Barsolo said.

Although it took him two months to get the scepter of immortality back, it was not for himself. Seeing that Ange could use it, he handed it over without hesitation. Grow vegetables' guy, will not be used for bad things.

An Ge tilted his head and looked back, looking for the yellow figure.

Above the terraced fields, the dozing Negris was awakened by the movement of the cemetery. He looked up and found that Ange was gone, and he was flying over anxiously. What's the matter? Are you going to fight?"

When they got closer, they realized that they were not confronting each other. When they asked what was going on, Negris said in surprise, "Where did you get the scepter of immortality?"

Basolo didn't bother to answer questions, his attention was all attracted by Negris: "Dragon? Brass dragon? So thin? Stunted?"

"Oh, can you talk? Be careful I'll roast you into a bald man." Negris threatened with a miniature dragon's breath.

"Why the bald man?" Maybe it was because the dragon's breath was too small and had no deterrent effect at all, but it dispelled the defenses of Basoro and others.

After some conversation, Negris finally understood the situation of these people: "You are knights of remains, originally the guards of the Stromgarde cemetery? How did you come up with the idea of ​​asking for the scepter of undead?"

Basolo responded: "This is the fastest and most thorough method. How about you? Who are you? I haven't seen you in Stromgarde before. How is the situation in the city?"

They were chatting, and Ange had already turned around and returned to the terraced fields, continuing to plant things.

When he ignited the undead scepter just now, he received some information from the scepter and figured out its operating mechanism, which is actually just a soul network node.

Because this soul network node has a breath of existence, it can command the undead guards of those cemeteries.

Anger found that he didn't need to use this thing, and he could also drive the undead creatures in the cemetery. Although he couldn't make them obey like those people with soul connections, he could make them dispatch, transfer, and attack, so he The scepter is not needed.

But he didn't bother to return it, so he stuffed it into the storage ring.

Things with souls cannot be placed in God's Domain, there is no storage space, and he is not used to it, so he wears a ring to hold things that cannot fit in God's Domain.

After talking with Basolo, Negris quickly convened everyone to discuss, because the news that Basolo brought was too amazing.

"You mean, a saint of the undead received you? He also complained, 'Your Majesty played too big this time'?" Duroken asked.

Basoro and the others ate the delicious beef pie that Negris tricked out of Ji Li, and said with satisfaction: "Yes, that's what the undead saint said, and he also said that my idea is good, he We are going to send people to distribute the undead scepter, so that those who are prestigious in the city can temporarily take charge of the undead guards to stabilize order."

They have already visited the city. Stromgarde is not as chaotic as they imagined. Not many people died. Everyone is working in an orderly manner. There are no victims of disasters they have seen along the way, and their faces are full of panic. and uneasy.

These changes were brought about by Negris and others, which gave him an inexplicable trust in everyone.

As soon as Basoro finished speaking, Duroken and Yinbi couldn't help scolding: "What kind of stupid idea is this, doesn't he think it's messy enough? What's this guy's name? I'll go to the house of the dead and scold him."

Basolo froze: "Is this a bad idea?"

"Of course not." Yin Coin explained: "He should directly send someone to manage the guards of the cemetery instead of handing it over to anyone. Changing the balance of power in a place at will is not the same as encouraging them to go to war?"

"You have an undead army that you can command, and then there is no food in the city, and you can't buy it anywhere else. Will you go to rob Beifeng City?" Silver Coin asked hypothetically.

Basolo shook his head: "No, I can't make it through."

"Then there will be a city under the mountain? If you don't have food, you will starve to death. Will you attack it?" Silver coin changed his words angrily.

"Yes, I understand. Those who have obtained the command, if they are ambitious, or lack food and water, will definitely use the undead guards to attack others." Bartholo suddenly realized.

When there are no soldiers, at most there will be a collapse of order and chaos. With soldiers, it will be war.

Duroken also sighed: "I'm used to it, I'm used to it, these undead never come up with ideas but their brains, because they have no brains."

Basolo couldn't help but justify a few sentences: "It may be because of the shortage of manpower. I can't see a few intelligent undead creatures in the City of Eternal Life."

"There are very few high-level undead creatures? You don't have to use high-level undead creatures, are there no vassal races?"

The low number is an old problem, and it was the same in the resting palace in the past. The number of intelligent undead creatures is always small, because compared with the low-level undead creatures that are too huge to count, the high-level undead creatures are too few to manage.

If the undead creature is a big net, then the high-level undead creatures are the nodes of the net. If there are too few nodes, the net will be sparse, and everything will easily leak.

But it is not necessary to use high-level undead creatures. This kind of simple thing can be done by subordinate creatures. Back then, there was an undead temple in the Abyss of Rest. Isn't there a similar organization here?

Basolo spread his hands, which was beyond his cognition.

After Basolo left, Negris had a few discussions and scratched his head: "The current situation is too complicated, we can't handle it, should we call Anthony over?"

"Can he walk away? There are a lot of things on the main plane."

"Ask, the situation here, just listening to Basolo's words, I feel dizzy." Negris said with gritted teeth.

At this moment, Negris noticed Ange who was farming, stopped suddenly, and looked up into the sky.

In the southeast sky, I saw a big black spot in front, and a dozen small black spots behind, flying towards this direction. As the distance approached, I could see their appearance clearly. It was a big ten. The second child has a total of thirteen bone dragons.

"It's such a small bone dragon, the front one is 20 meters long, and the back one is about 15 meters long. These guys were malnourished, right?" Negris was surprised.

The thirteen bone dragons flew over Stromgarde and circled in a circle, and a voice on the back of the bone dragon shouted: "Stromgarde, safe, next one, is there any city nearby? Northwind City? Okay, next one." , North Wind City."

"Hey, there's a brass dragon down there?"

"What are you making such a fuss about, do you still see a lot of dragons? Follow them quickly."

A group of bone dragons turned around and flew towards the other side of the mountain range.

It wasn't until the Bone Dragon Knight flew away that everyone looked at each other in blank dismay: "What's the matter with these guys? Are they here to inspect?"

"Check which city is chaotic? If it is chaotic, come down to maintain order? Does this mean that there is still power to maintain the order of the undead empire?!" Duroken didn't know what happened, and suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart .

Even though the empire has collapsed, there are still loyal people who are maintaining the last glory of the empire.

"They went to Beifeng City, should we go back too?"

"No need, just pay attention to the teleportation array, Feiwo will notify us if there is anything."

That night, Feiwo got the news that the bone dragon cavalry had indeed gone to North Wind City, and landed in North Wind City to rest for the night.

Feiwo warmly received them, and got a message from them: the undead council is looking for someone who can give birth to the tree of the gods.

As long as it can give birth to the God Tree, the Undead Council is willing to offer 20 cities with a size of more than 50,000 people, or a territory of one million square kilometers.

Negris and the others looked at each other and smiled knowingly at each other: The bait is here.

Thank you Banque Qingci for your reward.
