Skeleton King

The Skeleton King's palace is magnificent and magnificent, like a sleeping behemoth under the gray-black sky.

Outside the palace is a thick stone wall.Ace cast several complicated spells with the bone staff, and the gate of the palace slowly opened to him.There are small black buildings along the inner edge of the city wall. There are so many of these small buildings that Ace can't even see the end of them.

Going further in from the gate of the palace, there is a river that has dried up. As Ace opened the gate of the palace, the sea water of the Necromancer Sea slowly flowed into the river, covering the sharp barbs under the river.

This is not only the palace of the Skeleton King, but also a military fortress for fighting against countless planes.

Ace's thoughts could not help drifting away. He looked at this ferocious giant beast and guessed how many planes it had reached, and how many creatures died here, and were brought to the world of death by Skeleton King.

When the seawater of the Undead Sea filled the river, the suspension bridge in the inner palace was slowly lowered.Ace stepped onto the suspension bridge without hesitation and walked towards the inner palace.

The Skeleton King's palace should be quiet and secluded, but when Ace walked in front of the largest building in the Skeleton King's palace, he only felt that he had an auditory hallucination.

"Cluck cluck cluck."

"Cluck cluck cluck."

There was a faint laughter coming from the building, and it sounded like the owner of this laughter was not very old, he was still a child.But how could there be a child in the palace of the newly born Skeleton King in the middle of the sea of ​​undead, where even ordinary skeletons in the dead world dare not break through?

Ace couldn't help feeling that the surrounding air was getting worse, this scene was really creepy.

Ace thought for a while, and slowly pushed open the door of the building in front of him.

Inside the building there is a huge living room through a long corridor.

The innermost one is a fireplace that looks like a black dragon. No, based on Ace's knowledge of dragons, this fireplace is made of keel.There was a white, dark fire burning in the fireplace, which brought an eerie atmosphere to the living room filled with black furniture.

Even though Ace was already a level 8 magician, he felt that the living room was too cold.

But soon, Ace found the source of the previous voice.In the corner of the living room, there should have been a set of wooden furniture, but at this time it was dismantled into pieces.

There was a child about three or four years old sitting there, playing with those wooden blocks.The child sat there obediently, laughing "hehehehehe". With his laughter and movements, those wooden blocks flew into his hands, and he built them into chairs and tables, which was very interesting. Imaginatively build them into castles.

As soon as Ace saw the "child", he understood why someone could break into the Skeleton King's palace.

Ace walked to the side of the "child" and observed his appearance carefully.His hair is as black as the night, his eyes are like the sea water of the Necromancer Sea, bottomless, innocent and ignorant, his lips are as bright red as blood, and his skin is delicate, but it is too fair compared to ordinary humans.It's just that anyone who looks at him will think that he is a beautiful child carved with jade.

Ace looked at the "child" with tenderness in his eyes, as if thinking of an old friend, or the past time, he held the "child" in his arms, and called him: "Little Daniel."

Ace returned to the dead world this time mainly for two things. The first is to take away the palace left to him by the Skeleton King, and the second is to find the child of the undead Daniel and the human Stephanie.The Skeleton King's palace is easy to find, it has been here for thousands of years, and it won't run away.But little Daniel is different. When Daniel and Ace sent him to the Dead Realm, he was not yet born. He has been alone in the Sea of ​​Dead Souls for many years, and no one knows what will happen.

Ace did not see little Daniel on the outskirts of the Necromancer Sea, and he had already prepared for the worst.

Ace envisioned several possibilities. Little Daniel didn't wait for him to come to the sea of ​​undead, and was discovered and taken away by other undead creatures; or other accidents happened when he was born, which caused his congenital deficiency; or he Misfortune has been met.

But Ace didn't expect that there would be nowhere to find it after breaking through the iron shoes, and it would take no effort to get it.He actually found little Daniel in the Skeleton King's palace.

Ace looked at the appearance of little Daniel. Although Daniel and Stephanie both have brown hair and brown eyes, it may be because of little Daniel's race, or because he is a child conceived by the sea of ​​​​dead spirits. Little Daniel is pure black hair and black eyes. .

Ace said: "It looks more like Stephanie. Daniel will be very happy to see you."

Little Daniel blinked his dark eyes, he looked at Ace, for some reason, Ace felt a little dangerous.

Ace remembered that besides being the son of an old man, little Daniel was also a "ghost baby" who was called the source of bad luck. It was only because of Daniel's sacrifice that all this changed.

Ace is not afraid of a child.

Ace's emerald green eyes met with little Daniel's black eyes, and he asked in confusion, "What did you eat in the Necromancer Sea all these years? How did you grow so big?"

Little Daniel answered Ace with a black bubble.He puffed up his mouth and blew out a transparent black bubble, and when the bubble burst, he continued to blow, and then laughed non-stop "giggling, giggling, giggling" to himself.Little Daniel has never seen a human being, and no matter how talented he is, he can't immediately understand the meaning of Ace's words.

Ace wasn't annoyed either, as long as it wasn't a forbidden curse that hit him.Ace could feel that little Daniel's magic power and vindictiveness in his body were not lower than that of a mage or a sword master, but it would take a long time for him to fully master this power.

Such a unique talent, even Ace envied him.The posture in which he held little Daniel was a bit stiff, which is no wonder, Ace has no experience in contact with children, he said to little Daniel: "I will abide by the agreement with Daniel. Teach you well. Get out of here with me okay?"

Little Daniel looked at Ace ignorantly. His delicate and small nose sniffed Ace's neck, as if he felt a little familiar, and then he lay on Ace's shoulder with peace of mind and did not move.

Although Ace's position holding little Daniel was a bit uncomfortable, he was worried about disturbing little Daniel, so he didn't dare to make other movements at all.It didn't take long for little Daniel to completely relax in Ace's arms. He leaned obediently on Ace's shoulder, blowing bubbles "thumping" and "thumping".

Ace didn't care about him, and took out the token that Daniel had given him from the space bracer, and completely accepted the last legacy left to him by the Skeleton King.

……

Dragon Island.

At this moment, Sykes happened to be in the secret place of Dragon Island.According to Elder Edward, no baby dragon has been born on Dragon Island for a thousand years, and the secret place has not been opened for many years. Logically, Sykes will not meet anyone or dragons here.

But everything happens by accident.

Sykes looked at the blond boy who suddenly appeared in front of him, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but he held back forcefully.Unless he can escape from Long Island, as long as he is still on the island, he is on the opponent's territory.

Sykes showed great demeanor, at least on the surface, "I didn't know you were the patriarch of the Dragon Clan when we met last time. I'm really sorry."

Sykes recalled that both Elder Edward and he had neglected that there was an underage dragon on Dragon Island, and it was a dragon that could enter Dragon Island without Elder Edward's consent.But they knew in advance, can Elder Edward prevent Norn from entering the secret place?Can Sykes resist the temptation to enter the secret place?

So the current situation will not change.

Norn looked at Sykes with mechanically cold eyes, but fortunately he didn't directly change back to his body and fight Sykes in the dragon's secret place.

Norn looked at Sykes silently.

Sykes somehow remembered that many years ago, when he just came to the imperial capital from the magic island, he was only 15 years old at that time, and he had never been anywhere except to visit the magic island.Silver Sword Master Heinrich Richter sent him to the imperial capital of the Pansy Empire and left in a hurry.

Sykes was born extraordinary, but also grew up in the magic island, and almost no one in the imperial capital could control him.

No boy of the same age dared to provoke Sykes, and girls of the same age were just entering the social season, and they all looked at him shyly and timidly.During that time, Sykes provoked a lot of peach blossoms.Then there was a banquet, to which, by some unlucky Sikes misfortune, all his lovers were invited.At a banquet, there was once a girl who loved him deeply and was as gentle as water looked at him so coldly, the flames in her eyes seemed to kill him.

Sykes didn't know why he would think of this matter, not to mention that he couldn't have a love debt with the patriarch of the dragon clan, even if someone really dared to owe a debt to the dragon clan, it must be him.

Sykes took the pendant down and tried to explain to Norn, "I didn't know it belonged to you before. It was given to me by my brother, no, he didn't give it to me, he asked me to keep it temporarily. He It's called Ace Neumann. Ace probably wants to save my life. I didn't know that Ace had a connection with the Dragon Clan..."

Norn interrupted his chatter: "Ace Neumann has no brother."

No one likes to be interrupted, and neither does Sykes.But this time Sykes will not say that Norn has no tutor, because this little dragon is probably taught by his own brother.

Norn said again: "Evidence?"

Sykes doesn't know why Norn insists on not believing that he is Ace's brother, but how can he find evidence for him now, Caroline is dead, and the only one who can prove that Caroline is his mother is the Marchioness of Rose, Rose Some people in the castle should be able to guess it.The Yinhui Sword Master naturally knew where he came from, but Norn might not believe what the Yinhui Sword Master said.

"Hand." Norn said again.Sykes stretched out his right hand without knowing why, and saw Norn's hand slashing into the void, a bloodstain appeared on the palm of Sykes' right hand, Sykes saw it but didn't hide, and let everyone Beads of blood flew to Norn's palm.

A few drops of blood were suspended in mid-air, Norn took a drop with his fingers, sniffed it lightly, and tasted it again.

Sykes seemed to be waiting for the sentence of fate.He thought bitterly in his heart: Why is it as if he recognizes his own father.

Fortunately, after a few seconds, Norn made his judgment, "You are indeed Ace Neumann's elder brother."

Sykes heaved a sigh of relief, he hadn't thought of going to the dead world to report to his good brother so early.Even if he can become an immortal lich, he is not willing.

"Since you are Ace Neumann's elder brother, he gave you my reverse scale again, has he told you about me?" Nuo En spoke again.

Relying on Sykes' many years of experience in the field of love, he heard something unusual in the tone of the Dragon Clan patriarch, and he only felt that this was another proposition.

But the problem is that his good brother is far away from the Pansy Empire, and he is about to lose his life, Sykes Richter? !
