The place of worship of more than 1,000 square meters should be a small valley with beautiful scenery and green grass. It can be seen from the historical records that due to the surrounding mountains, it is warm and moist all year round, and it is a paradise for flowers and small animals. When the sacrificial team came here, they bowed to their ancestors in the fragrance of flowers, praying for the heroes of the ancestors to bless the tribe and this vast grassland in the coming year. When the orcs bowed to their ancestors, the little animals who were not afraid of being born will always gather around people and looked at the group of big guys with curious eyes to perform some actions that they could not understand. Humans and beasts have achieved a certain degree of harmony in this soul habitat.

But now, these people who are completely invisible, without flowers, grass, small animals, and worship, have now become a sinking place ruled by death.

In the center of the valley, there is a bone mountain made of bones standing in the valley, and the base occupies almost the entire valley. The bone mountain is not high, about ten meters, and a throne made of bones is placed on the top of the mountain. A skeleton knight with a bone whiter bone than other skeletons sat firmly on the throne, looking down at the intruders from a high place. This skeleton is very strange. It looks like the type of bone knight, but it has no mount, and the strength level cannot be judged. Seeing the five people entering, it did not attack blindly like the large group of undead outside, nor did it sneak or escape like the skeleton knight I saw at the beginning. He just sat calmly on the throne, and the soul fire in his eyes was slightly pounding, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"It seems that this is one of the goals we are looking for." Catherine looked up at the throne at the height of the place, wondering how calm the other party was: "Pennis, do you think this undead can communicate normally? Like Anne."

"Well. Do you think the skeletons may speak?" Panis said with a wry smile: "Anne can communicate because of the ghost-like sound. As for the skeletons, they do not have the ability to speak at all. No matter how intelligent they are, they cannot communicate."

With a "huh", the skeleton on the throne raised his arms, closed his jaw and made a strange sound of clicking. The twenty skeleton knights surrounding the throne seemed to have heard some order, and the commanding mounts neatly stomped their feet, and they actually burst out with a forceful aura.

"It seems that it understands." Catherine said in surprise: "But we can't understand what it says at all."

"Call Annie, don't let her come out. Just talk through the ornaments." Pannis thought for a while and decided to make an attempt: "Let her try it out and see if she can translate the other person's words. After all, communication between the dead is not based on language, but on the interaction of the soul. Maybe she can understand it. By the way, don't let her come out directly."

"I understand that if the war starts, our skills are too easy to hurt her by accident." Catherine nodded, moved her fingers to her chest, gently tapped Annie's nest, lowered her voice and said, "Annie, you heard it. Can you understand what that person said?"

A half of the girl's face suddenly appeared on Catherine's chest. Anne looked at the skeleton on the throne with one eye and replied with half open mouth: "I have a better way. I can let you talk to him directly."

"Huh?" Catherine got the unexpected answer and asked in confusion: "It's really OK? What should I do?"

"This is my natural ability." Annie was silent for a minute before she answered proudly: "Okay, now you can try it. Just talk to him normally, and you should be able to understand it."

"That's so simple?" Catherine was a little incredible. But she tentatively raised her voice and shouted to the skeleton at the height: "Mr. Skeleton. Since you already have the sanity, can you talk about it first?"

"You... have stepped into my kingdom!" A low but majestic voice came. It was not from the skeleton's mouth, but from the air around his body: "Are you ready to bear the anger of this king?"

"Your Kingdom?" Catherine retorted with a stern face: "This grassland has been the orc pasture since the Third Age. When did it become your kingdom?"

"Orcs? They have given up here, have they? They have abandoned this holy land of ancestors." The skeleton suddenly stood up from the throne, with anger in his voice: "Since this land has become a land without a border, I can certainly occupy it."

"Quote." Although the skeleton was very powerful, Lina burst out with a majesty that could overwhelm him: "Is it because the orcs will give up here, because under your control, the energy of death spreads here and causes the undead to rush around?"

"Nonsense." The Skeleton King's aura suffocated and his voice became smaller: "What does the expansion of death energy have to do with me? I am just... a bastard, you actually got my words."

"Sister, it seems that it's true." The four people in the adventure group looked at each other, and Lina nodded and said, "The wise skeleton is just a by-product. The real reason for the continuous increase in death energy needs to be investigated more deeply."

"Are you fooling me?" The Skeleton King was angry. The twenty skeleton knights around him took a few steps forward at the same time, and pointed the saber in his hand straight at the people at the foot of the Bone Mountain: "For the past forty-seven years, no one dared to tease me like this. I want you to pay the price."

"It turns out that you only had consciousness for forty-seven years." Vivian held the notebook and lowered her head and recorded it quickly: "Do you still remember the state when you just had consciousness? Do you still remember who you were?"

"Well, I suddenly felt regained consciousness. Although I still remember who I was, and even how I died, I couldn't remember what happened after death. By the way, just like I woke up suddenly while sleepwalking, I could only remember what happened before I fell asleep." Vivian's question made the Skeleton King scratch his head, and it took me a long time to reply. After answering a few words, the Skeleton King suddenly reacted, angrily waving the leg bones in his hand as scepter, and shouted angrily: "Pay the price for your rudeness, bastards, go to the guards, crush them."

Although as a conscious undead, it can influence and control other similar undeads by will and does not require any words to command, the furious Skeleton King seemed to have forgotten and waved his hands to give orders to the guards around him. The twenty golden stairs knights who were guards acted at the same time. The sitting goat raised its front hooves and made the final preparations before charging.

"Wait a minute." Catherine suddenly raised her hand and made a stopping action: "There is still something I haven't finished."

"What's the matter? Do you have any last words?" Catherine's sudden reaction made the Skeleton King subconsciously stop the guards' charge, but the knights who had already started running, especially those who rushed down from a high place, were not so easy to stop. The momentum of the charge and the opposite order made the knights mess around. Two of them could not even control the forward trend and fell directly from the back of the bone goat and rolled down the bone mountain to make a ball.

The chaos in front of him instantly diluted the solemn atmosphere that the Skeleton King could have created before. The two skeleton knights rolled down from the Bone Mountain made several people at the foot of the mountain cover their faces, and they couldn't bear to see them.

"Bastard, bastard, why are you laughing?" The Skeleton King's majestic voice suddenly became sharp, but it immediately returned to its original state: "If you dare to laugh, I will cut you into pieces."

"But we didn't laugh." The strange and funny reaction of the Skeleton King slowly relaxed the tense spirits of the five people. Panis leaned into Catherine's ear and whispered a few words. Catherine's mouth showed a smile and said loudly: "Look, there is still plenty of time, and we still have some questions to ask, can we chat first and then fight?"

"I... I don't want to chat with you at all." The Skeleton King said, waving his leg bones, "I just want to destroy you guys who have entered without permission."

"But if we are wiped out so quickly, we can't chat." Catherine didn't seem to care about the threat of twenty golden skeleton knights at all, nor did she care about the pressure of the strange undead with unknown strength in front of her. She said in a gentle tone: "Don't you feel regretful?"

The Skeleton King was silent as mysteriously. After a long time of silence, he suddenly woke up and said angrily: "Nonsense, I am not regretful at all. I don't want to chat with you, such as you, and put it on me."

"Bang." The silver-white crystal bottle kept flying out and accurately hit a skeleton knight. The silver liquid spilled out from the broken crystal bottle, and the skeleton knight was covered with the body. Even if Vivian did not cast spells or controls, the liquid containing high concentration of light attribute energy was itself an extremely strong poison for the undead's body. The skeleton knight was poured by the liquid like an ordinary human being soaked in a strong acid. The bone energy was melted by the light energy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a ball of bone meal.

The sudden change caused the remaining nineteen skeleton knights to stop. They, who obviously did not have the ability to think, took a few steps back at the same time, showing the fear of the manipulator behind them at this moment. This scene made the five people laugh at each other. Vivian's eyes were filled with a prank smile and took out another crystal bottle and made a gesture to throw it forward. The skeleton knights were frightened by the whole movement and retreated again. The five people did not stay in place anymore, but began to approach the Bone Mountain step by step, and soon approached the Skeleton King who controlled the knight to surround him.

"Look, we are also very powerful. If we are not a large group of skeletons, we are not afraid at all." Panis bared his teeth and looked fierce, saying to the Skeleton King: "Your guards can't beat us up. Now the situation is reversed. Is it time for us to beat you up together?"
