Something's wrong with my undead

Andre gave some instructions for meeting the chief priest and left.

It can be seen that this "last grand duke" has gradually become a celebrity in Saint-Simon because of his mission to Macara.

This also reflects, to some extent, the change in the Temple's attitude towards McCalla.

Because he was told not to wander, and Heine could sense the strong prying and hostility of the shadows in the air, he did not plan to wander around. He simply set up a barrier to block out the sound, and then talked to the two skeletons about the new discoveries in the village.

When he said that Teacher Xia had found a hammer and was about to open the "Ruined Palace", the two guys were really scared.

Da Huang: "Fuck, why is there a new instance?"

Wei Dianyuan: "No, shouldn't the focus be on 'Ruined Palace'? This B copy is the last large-scale comprehensive copy before the Netherworld Expedition. Does this mean that we are almost through with the game?"

Da Huang: "Who should I ask if you ask me? You came earlier than me. When I crossed over, the first underworld rift had just stabilized. You even told me the term Hades Guard."

...

"Are you unfamiliar with this place?"

Seeing that the two were busy being surprised, Heine decided to put some pressure on them.

"If you are unfamiliar with this, you can continue to stay here. I am here to seek your opinions and the help of the Temple. I will not force you to participate in the battle."

...

Da Huang: "Hurry up, buddy, I'm anxious, please express your opinion for me!"

Wei Dianyuan: "You have hands, so why don't you just use external vocal cords like Teacher Xia?"

Having said that, he still quickly typed, "Familiar, that is quite familiar, both Da Huang and I are familiar with it."

"It's good to be familiar with it." Heine breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately showed a guilty look on his face: "This battle will be more dangerous. Logically speaking, I shouldn't let you take risks again so soon..."

...

Da Huang: "Hey, please say something, brother. I am a soft-hearted person and cannot bear to hear these words..."

Wei Dian Yuan: "No, is it that serious, brother?"

Da Huang: "You know how those stupid NPCs chat..."

Wei Dianyuan: "You are talking nonsense. The NPC in the game also said so, but you said that it was a retreat to advance, which is pure PUA."

Da Huang: "Brother, can't I just be double-standard?"

Eden Tobi: "Okay, okay, it's worth it to be double-standard with Heine!"

...

Eden Tobi: "Fighting is our duty. That's why we are here."

Heine was immediately filled with awe.

Just as the two groups were competing with each other in acting, there was a knock on the door.

Heine: "Who?"

He didn't order any food or call room service, and Andre said they would meet formally in the evening. So who came to his door?

The next second, the shadow condensed into a line of cursive characters in the air:

Veronika Alenko

Wei Dianyuan struggled to recognize the words, and then exclaimed: "Fuck, why is my aunt here?"

Da Huang: "Which aunt?"

Wei Dian Yuan: "Dermines, the eighth-level evil spirit at the entrance of the dungeon after the Soul Storm, the aunt who led us through the Soul Thorns."

Da Huang heaved a sigh of relief: "It was Aunt Wei, you scared me, damn, she almost transformed and took off."

While they were chatting, Heine walked over and opened the door.

When Heine saw an old woman in a black robe and looking energetic, he felt that this was somewhat different from the image of "Aunt" he had imagined.

This should almost be called too milky.

Wei Dian Yuan thought so too.

"Hiss... Why does Auntie look a little old now?"

Da Huang: "Maybe because she is still in human form."

...

Ignoring the inhumane conversation between the two, Heine asked in confusion: "Your Excellency is..."

"I'm the former chief priest and Nikis's mentor. Strictly speaking, I shouldn't come to see you, but the situation is urgent and I must talk to you."

Although Veronica looked old, her steps were vigorous and her back was straight.

Although she was a woman, her gestures and movements were masculine, capable and cheerful. She just walked in and sat down.

In comparison, Heine and his skeleton seemed like guests.

Veronica's eyes swept across the three people, finally stopping on Heine.

"Where is Bucina? Didn't she come back with you?"

"She has some other things to take care of."

Heine wasn't lying.

Before leaving, he told Buzina two facts:

One is that treatment is “over.”

Another is, “It’s over!”

Cayetano can't go back, his name is now Lloyd.

So Buzzina, unwilling to give up, decided to try one by one to see if she could wake up the dragon called "Hey", or Lloyd.

Heine can only say respect, blessing and hope that she is okay.

Veronica didn't say anything more and said directly, "Before now, Buzina has been helping us suppress the ghosts of the Delmines ruins. Now that she's gone, our strength is stretched to the limit. I need you to notify her to return here quickly."

"Okay, I'll tell her when I get back."

Heine smiled and said perfunctorily.

The other party's topic is obviously not this, this is just a prelude to introducing a certain noun.

After all, if the situation is really urgent, you won’t use this tone and attitude.

Sure enough, the aunt nodded and continued, "I heard that your skeletons have extraordinary combat experience, especially in spells related to strange beasts. As far as I know, strange beasts have only become rampant after the magic network was paralyzed. Previous research was concentrated in the Institute of Truth in Veritas, and the Macara people are obviously not supposed to be exposed to this part of the research. I want to know how they obtained this information."

Heine raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "I want to know, is this your idea or the request of the Shadow Temple?"

"Does it make any difference?"

"If it is your personal doubt, then I have the right to refuse to answer. If it is the latter, then I will consider using this part as a bargaining chip."

Veronica: "So you won't answer no matter what?"

Heine spread his hands and smiled: "Sorry, it's not that I refuse to answer, but I can't answer because I am also looking for the answer."

Veronica frowned and said, "But you said you wanted to use this part as a bargaining chip..."

"Yes, bargaining chip. Because although I can't answer it, I can make a request to my skeleton on your behalf and ask them to answer this question."

Veronica's expression finally changed.

She looked at the skeleton with a slightly odd look, especially at the man from the Northeast, earning the latter a question behind her back: "Why is she looking at me?"

"Your relationship is really interesting. Don't you have absolute control over your servants?"

"If I regard them as servants, then I do have absolute control; but if they are companions and allies, then I should not have absolute control."

...

Da Huang: "Listen, listen! What the fucking words are! This is the fucking words of the human race!"

...

Veronica's expression became even weirder.

Her powerful perception examined every detail on Heine's face, trying to find any trace of hypocrisy.

But the conclusion is - this answer is extremely sincere.

On the contrary, the previous answer about Buzina seemed very perfunctory and obviously concealed something.

——Interesting young people.

She made this assessment in her mind, then simply stopped probing and went straight to the point.

"I just heard you talking about 'The Ruined Palace'."

Heine was shocked: "You...you were eavesdropping?"

"No, the words came into my perception on their own."

Veronica said slowly, with a cheeky tone that was more like an old person than cunning: "If I can help you with this matter, then can I get information about strange beast spells from you?"

Heine's expression changed slightly, and he immediately sent a private message to Wei Dian Yuan: "Do you know about the ruins of Delmines?"

"Yes, I am quite familiar with it. Both Da Huang and I are familiar with it."

Heine was speechless: "...Do you understand what this common language means?"

Wei Dianyuan: "I understand. I quite understand. Da Huang and I both understand."

"……Fine."
