Skeleton King

"...I don't know exactly. What I can only be sure of is that in the early years, Prince Xiben and Princess Muse of the Finger Empire happened to meet something on the magic island. That thing might have caused magic When the owner of the island fell, it was Prince Xiben and Princess Muse who helped them out. Afterwards, not only did they each get a magic fruit from the magic island, but the owner of the magic island also gave Prince Xiben something." Nou said.

Ace's hand stroking Nuo's golden hair stopped, and he said, "Is that what you said earlier?"

Nou said: "Yes."

As the center of power in the undead, the City Lord's Mansion of Eternal Night City is naturally the most luxurious, especially the City Lord's bedroom.The balcony next to the bedroom overlooks the entire City Lord's Mansion, and its shape is like the head of a black dragon.On the bedroom wall are black dragons carved by the best artists in the dead world, and sun, moon and stars sunken to the bottom of the sea.

Ke Ace's naked body is more like the artist's perfect sculpture than these. His white jade-like body has smooth lines and is full of powerful beauty. His brows and eyes are cold. to flow out.

"What is it?" Ace asked.

Nou has no intention of concealing it, and letting Ace know what he is going to face is the best protection for him, "a broken astrological puppet." Sensing Ace's doubts, Nou added: "It is a person with a transcendent holy rank. An astrological puppet with strength."

Ace smiled lightly, "The use of that astrological puppet should be extremely restricted, right?"

Otherwise, even if Prince Xiben saved the life of the owner of the magic island, the owner of the magic island would not give this astrological puppet to Prince Xiben.

Furthermore, at this time, the people in the small plane are about to hit the node. Prince Nishimoto has sent 50 knights to support the magic island, and they must have formed an alliance.If the astrological puppet can display its strength beyond the existence of the holy rank, as long as Prince Nishimoto takes the astrological puppet to the small plane, together with the owner of the magic island, they can turn the tide of the battle in an instant.

Why should they be so worried like they are now?

Nou sighed: "Almost. I haven't heard of anyone who has seen that astrological puppet, and everyone who has seen it may have died, but according to the information obtained from Prince Xiben and the teacher, that astrological puppet has already undergone an irreversible Unless there is a real astrologer resurrected, no one else can completely repair it. But even so, its extreme attack cannot be resisted by ordinary holy ranks."

Ace looked at him with a smile, "Are you worried that Siben Koauser will attack me with that astrological puppet?"

Nou closed his eyes, pretending not to feel Ace's unruly hands, he said: "That day, Prince Xiben planned to use the astrology puppet. Even if the astrology puppet is damaged, he will not let you escape his control. "

Ace sneered, his hands were covered with delicate and creamy skin, when he pinched the small protrusion, there was a suppressed muffled sound coming from below him, accompanied by Ace's deceptive voice , "Don't worry too much, Evernight City is absolutely safe." And Ace laughed lowly, "If there really are astrological puppets coming, we are likely to be able to collect more items."

There are bursts of emotional waves sweeping through.

Nou wrapped his arms around Ace's neck and pulled him down, "Don't torture me, good Ace..."

Then he could no longer utter complete words.

……

The current situation in Evernight City is fine, but there is one thing that makes General Arnold a little dissatisfied. "There are at least 30 people outside the city, and they are all cavalry. Even if we take food from Evernight City, we won't be able to support them for long."

The human knights are no better than the skeleton knights. They only need dark magical elements to survive, and they need bread.

The land in the city that never sleeps, after being self-sufficient, can support 30 troops for half a month, and it will run out of ammunition and food.

Ace asked, "Where's the food and supplies for the army?"

General Arnold said: "Including those, it is only enough for them to stay in the dead world for another month. Moreover, the invasion of their bodies by the dark magic elements of the dead world is getting more and more serious..."

If General Arnold was fully responsible for this matter, he would throw all the 30 troops into the sea of ​​little dead spirits.At that time, there will be 100 more well-trained skeleton knights in the dead world.

It's a pity that their Highness's heart is not so cruel.

As expected, Ace rejected General Arnold's proposal, "We still have to keep them to negotiate with the magic island. The magic elements in the small plane are weaker than those in the world and the dead world, and they can exert greater combat power while alive." However He also promised General Arnold, "If Magic Island wants to continue to fight, I will not use our skeleton soldiers as cannon fodder."

At that time, the alliance of Magic Island can only kill each other.

General Arnold reminded: "There is also the Royal Guard Knights of the Pansy Empire..."

General Arnold thought that facing the Knights of the Royal Guards again would make him feel a lot of emotion. After all, it was the only Knights he served in when he was alive. He was born there and died there.However, a thousand years later, when he reunited with the Royal Knights of the Guards, General Arnold discovered that all his obsessions had disappeared, and those pasts could no longer cause waves in his heart.

General Arnold thought, the astrologer was right, in the endless wilderness, he waited for his real king.

Ace waved his hand and said indifferently: "Continue to close it too."

General Arnold just finished speaking, "Your Highness, Sykes Richter, head of the Royal Knights Guards, has left the station, and we haven't tracked down his whereabouts yet."

Ace: ...

Ace quietly turned his head back. When Ace and General Arnold were discussing things, Nou took the initiative to walk to the side, as if he was interested in the original medicine garden outside Bill's laboratory in the city lord's mansion, and was carefully observing .Ace hadn't explained Sykes to Noah yet, and while they were fine, he still didn't want to talk about other people on their honeymoon.

As long as the silver dragon Alice is by Sykes' side, no one in Eternal Night City can stop them unless a few liches join forces.Ace said: "Leave him alone. Nothing will happen to him."

……

There are very few trees in the Deadland.Only on the side of the streets of Eternal Night City, there are a few bare Devil Weeping Trees, which are good materials for necromancers to make magic staffs, but who would dare to cut them down near the City Lord's Mansion of Eternal Night City?

The bark on the trunk of the Devil May Cry Tree is extremely dry, as if it has never been nourished by water. Under its roots, there are thick bones buried.The only thing that can nourish the Devil May Cry Tree is a lot of dead energy.Sometimes, the skeletons of Eternal Night City are not satisfied with the bones on their bodies, and they will come here to replace them with new ones.

Nou was wearing a robe made of gray swan feathers, which originally belonged to Ace, but they were similar in stature, so Nou didn't feel uncomfortable wearing it.

Nuoou walked out of the city lord's mansion of Eternal Night City. The aura of a living person is very obvious here, not to mention that Nuoou's body is full of light attributes, he is like a bright light in the dark night.As long as he is not blind, he can find that he is unusual.

The passing skeletons all looked at Noou curiously. The skeletons who settled in Eternal Night City were all high-level and enlightened. They saw that Noou came out of the city lord's mansion, and they didn't dare to come up except to watch quietly. Pick up a conversation, let alone start a fight.

Nou noticed footsteps behind him, it was Ace, and he asked without turning his head, "What's going on?"

Ace said: "Except for the almost complete annihilation of the 2 knights sent by the Finger Empire to the city that never sleeps, the 100 knights from the two empires, as well as the 20 holy ranks sent by Magic Island this time, were all killed by us. Captured alive."

Nou exhaled, and said, "It's good to be alive. They are all bargaining chips for us to negotiate with Magic Island."

Although Nou and Ace have the same ideas, Ace doesn't know how to explain to him that 12 holy ranks have been transformed into liches by him.

Nou misunderstood Ace's hesitation, and he said: "Jacob has agreed to negotiate with us. Now we have the initiative, and we can try our best to propose conditions that are beneficial to us. Of course, Ace, the decision on this matter The power is yours.

From the perspective of the Green family, the eastern plains of the Louisiana province is our hometown. I don't want people from the small plane to invade there, and I don't want the pansy empire to be reduced to scorched earth.However, if you don’t want to negotiate peace with the magic island, some people from the small plane will break through the blockade of the magic island and invade the Pansy Empire. I hope you can open up a piece of land in the dead world and resettle the civilians of the Louisiana province . "

Ace answered him: "Nou, I understand what you mean. I don't want humans, monsters in the World of Warcraft Forest, and dragons on Dragon Island to be extinct. I have left many good memories on that plane, whether it is in The Pansy Empire is still in the Finger Empire. The only thing I don’t want to let go for the time being is Siben Koauser. I don’t like him persecuting you, and his killing intent on me will never disappear. But I don’t hate him enough Let the whole plane be buried with him."

Nuoou didn't express any further opinions. When he was loyal to Prince Xiben, he didn't expect that they would come to this point.

Nuo Ou looked at the powerful skeletons passing by Eternal Night City, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think I would become your weakness." He obviously wanted to protect Ace.

"Nuoou, you are my weakness and my armor." Ace wrapped his arms around Nou's waist, resting his head on his shoulder, "Would you like to visit the city that never sleeps?"

"Hmm." Nou said.

……

After the war, the city that never sleeps was almost reduced to ruins. People climbed on the ruins of the walls, and from time to time, they tore apart the tiles to find some useful things from them.It will take at least a few years for the city that never sleeps to restore its former prosperity.

Ace found Alter at the gate of the city that never sleeps. He didn't look very good, with a blood hole on his back shoulder, and his description was even more haggard.When he saw Ace, he immediately knelt down on one knee, "Your Highness, the three sword masters of Magic Island have been imprisoned underground in the city that never sleeps."

When Ace saw Alter, he discovered his injury. He and Nuoou broke through on the same day. It must not be a good day, because Arter's soul was also seriously injured.It is easy to heal trauma, but the soul, even the holy rank, is also cautious.

Ace guessed that it was caused when Alt fought against the Holy Order of Magic Island.

Ace's voice was so calm that it was almost cold. He told Alter: "It will take at least 10 years for you to regain your peak strength."

"I know, Your Highness." Alter didn't try to ask Ace for the star potion.Bill is dead, and no one except Lich Ingersoll knows that Ace can make a star potion.

In the eyes of others, one bottle of Star Potion is one bottle less.

Ace looked at the battlefield outside the Nightless City. In this war, the knights of the Nightless Knights suffered the most casualties. Many of them did not even leave their complete bodies. Even if Ace could recall their souls, they would not be able to find them. His own body; before Ace returned to the city that never sleeps, because the forbidden magic circle did not expand, some people's souls were directly annihilated by the forbidden spell of the magic island wizards, leaving nothing behind.

Ace asked the people who cleaned up the battlefield outside the Nightless City to return to the city. He said to Alt: "You selected them from several knight orders yourself, and now you should retrieve them yourself and bury them."
