Chapter 261 The Queen and the Dragon!
There is no one in the beautiful palace.
A candle fluttered gently ahead.
Under its guidance, Wu Xiaode followed the Ghost Queen and stepped up the ancient mottled steps step by step.
"How's the scenery?"
The Ghost Queen said in a proud tone.
This is the highest watchtower in the entire palace.
Since the palace is built on a high mountain, looking due east from the direction of the watchtower, one can see the vast expanse of desolate land.
To the west of the castle is the black sea of death.
To the north are the snow-capped mountains. It is said that the prehistoric undead that have existed for millions of years sleep in this silent snow-capped mountain with no end in sight.
"Have those beings in the snowy mountains ever woken up?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Very few. Even if you wake up, you will only eat some low-level undead around you and then continue to sleep." The Ghost Queen said.
Wu Xiaode looked to the south.
There is an extremely wide area of ruins, and it can be vaguely seen that it was once a place similar to an arena.
The Ghost Queen noticed Wu Xiaode's gaze and smiled:
"Yes, that is the classical training ground of the past, where the undead used to fight each other, compete for honor and status, and then gain promotion."
Wu Xiaode was silent for a moment.
I don't know the history of the world of death at all. If I say something I don't know, I will be betrayed immediately.
What should I say at this time?
He thought for a while and said: "It's amazing that the ghost clan can establish a kingdom in such a place."
The Ghost Queen showed a decent smile and said softly:
"With millions of kilometers around here, countless undead appear every day, and our ghost family has enough strength to eat them all to ensure peace and tranquility here."
Wu Xiaode's eyes flashed.
I see.
Every trial is a feast for high-level undead.
——This is to avoid the birth of new powerful beings, and also to maintain its absolute authority in this territory.
in other words.
Who would sit back and watch a powerful challenger appear in their territory?
Wu Xiaode understood the whole thing at once.
The Ghost Queen stood aside and continued to feel the emerald diamond gifted by Wu Xiaode, feeling gradually surprised in her heart.
She saw it.
That emerald diamond is not something from the world of death.
——It contains divine power and is a sacred treasure.
In other words, this is a treasure from the living world.
And it is not an ordinary world of living beings, it should be a paradise like heaven where such a gem can be born.
The other party gave such a gem as a gift, which was both elegant and appropriate, and also demonstrated his own strength and status.
Same last time——
This Ming ghost was able to get a Cyclops for everyone to eat!
His methods are high, his kindness is great, and he is generous.
My daughter's problem is all thanks to him.
Tsk.
It seems to be a rare death monster worth befriending.
The Ghost Queen was in a good mood and continued: "Your Excellency should also know something about the living world. In fact, we have always followed the rules of the living world to rule the country."
"Oh?" Wu Xiaode said.
"In nature, eating and being eaten are the only laws."
"But we are more civilized. We will only eat those who try to advance through trials. We will bury more undead underground to strengthen the law of death in the country. As for those who have certain talents but do not seek breakthroughs Guys——"
"They can exist freely in the ghost kingdom and contribute their strength to the entire kingdom."
After the Ghost Queen finished speaking, her eyes fell lightly on Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode praised: "Excellent ruling skills, Her Majesty the Queen."
The weak eat the strong.
——Such a simple truth, even in the world of death.
It seems that I have to be careful when I advance in the future.
Those great undead who already occupy high positions would not want a thorn in their territory.
"Thank you for the compliment. I remember to show you the classical trial ceremony."
The Ghost Queen clapped her hands.
Two translucent ghosts carried a table, floated up the steps, and gently placed the table in front of Wu Xiaode.
A torn page lay on the table.
Wu Xiaode looked at the page and felt that it looked indescribably familiar.
The Book of the Dead was originally floating in mid-air, but when it saw the pages, it suddenly fell down and opened it quickly in front of Wu Xiaode:
"You have discovered the pages of the Dark Sealed Book."
"Just like last time, the Book of the Dead can absorb the pages of the Dark Sealed Book."
"Attention!"
"This is a page of classical trials, recording the most primitive death trial method."
"If you obtain it, the Book of the Dead will master the most primitive death trial rituals, so that you will no longer need to participate in the trials of various death territories in the future, and even obtain the rewards of the real law of death."
Wu Xiaode was shocked.
——This page is so important.
The last page of the Book of Dark Sealing was obtained from the "God of Death" while fighting it.
The "God of Death" only has one page like this, but with this page, he can capture the souls of countless sentient beings.
This shows how precious these pages are!
Wu Xiaode glanced at the Ghost Queen without revealing anything.
The Ghost Queen smiled and said: "This is the fragment of an ancient death trial. It is of no use anymore, but it is also a precious antique."
"Indeed." Wu Xiaode nodded.
——The pages that allow ordinary undead to qualify for the trial are indeed nothing to the powerful ghost kingdom.
But it is useful for my own Book of the Dead!
The strength of the Ghost Queen should be no less than that of the Bone Dragon, and I have just established a preliminary friendship with her——
Is there any normal way to get this page?
Wu Xiaode thought for a few breaths and said, "I am very interested in this page. I wonder if the queen can bear the pain and give up her love?"
——There is absolutely no need to play tricks.
The Ghost Queen doesn't know how many years she has been operating in the world of death, and how many hidden characters she has met.
Playing tricks with such a being will only make people look down on him.
When the Ghost Queen heard this, she glanced at him lightly.
I saw this Minggui standing in the wind with his hands behind his back, staring at the sea of death in the distance with an indifferent expression, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
This is the style of a strong man.
A Minggui came specifically to watch the level 30 undead trial, and he also said he was interested in the trial.
As a result, when you see this page, you are not moved, pretending not to be interested, and trying every means to bid for this page, then you are at a disadvantage.
The more unscrupulous ones will come back to steal the pages.
We are existences that stand at the pinnacle of the world of death. If we still face things with the petty attitude that we cannot get along with, we will really not be able to get on the table.
This Minggui is really a character.
——He just told you without any secret that he wanted this page.
Of course I can speak loudly.
But...
Do you lack that little money?
Are you going to have trouble with a ghost for a mere classical trial page?
The Ghost Queen smiled slightly and said:
"I sincerely hope you will accept these two things."
She pulled out an invitation and placed it gently on the table, side by side with the torn page.
Wu Xiaode looked around and saw a line of small words written on the invitation:
"I heard that Her Majesty the Queen has countless means and is good at fighting. She is about to challenge the 680-level death trial. I specially invite you to come and learn from me."
"——The Deathbringer, the Wings of Frost and Sleep, the Secret Leader of Silence, and the Dragon of the End."
Wu Xiaode was shocked.
This is Bone Dragon’s invitation letter!
Can't we deal with the Bone Dragon and the Ghost Queen?
"I have been stuck at level 679 for a long time and have never dared to break through. However, after seven hundred years of preparation, I finally have the confidence to take a step forward." The Ghost Queen explained.
Wu Xiaode said: "So this invitation letter——"
"The Bone Dragon is also stuck at level 679. There must be a battle between it and me, so we think it is better to have a private battle. The loser withdraws and continues to wait for the opportunity. Otherwise, if both of them participate in the real trial at the same time, they must follow the rules. Come, one of you will definitely die," the Ghost Queen said.
"That's it." Wu Xiaode nodded.
The Ghost Queen said in a sincere tone:
"I have prepared a strong fighting team to fight against the Bone Dragon. I also ask Lord Minggui to help me. This page of the Classical Trial is my sincere gift of thanks. What do you think?"
Wu Xiaode looked at the invitation letter and book pages in front of him and was speechless for a moment.
Damn it.
I obviously just came to complete a level 30 trial.
As a result, we now have to face a level 680 trial?
Is this humane?
But that page is bound to be obtained.
With it, you no longer need to participate in the trials of various death realms in the future, and you can even obtain the true Law of Death rewards.
This is your chance to change the course of your future!
——Otherwise, I won’t know that I will be eaten by that big guy in the next trial.
Wu Xiaode thought for a while, then reached out to pick up the book pages and invitation letter, and sighed:
"I will lend a helping hand to Her Majesty the Queen."
A smile appeared on the Ghost Queen's face, she curtsied slightly and said: "Thank you, Your Excellency! I will go and prepare a thing or two, and will be back soon."
Her figure disappeared from the place in a flash.
Only Wu Xiaode was left standing on this towering tower.
No one was around.
He released the Demonic Mist of Silence to cover the surroundings, and then placed the dark sealed page on the Book of the Dead.
The pages disappeared immediately.
The Book of the Dead suddenly shook, bursting out with infinite dark light, soaring into the sky.
Wu Xiaode's expression changed, and he immediately stirred up the magic fog around him to rush into the sky, covering up the heavy dark light.
"There's too much noise!"
He shouted lowly.
The Book of the Dead is quite spiritual, and it immediately suppresses all fluctuations, allowing the dark light to slowly withdraw and disappear into the book again.
Lines of small ice crystal characters then appeared:
"The Book of the Dead has devoured the current dark sealed pages."
"This is a page that contains the extremely powerful power of the Law of Death. After the devouring is completed, you will also gain the following gains:"
"A: Gain 1 point of eternal soul power;"
"No matter what happens, no matter how much soul power you consume, you will always have a little more soul power than others, and you will always have a little soul power in you that cannot be used up."
"B: Obtain the summoning method of "Original Death Trial Ritual":"
"From now on, each of your breakthroughs can be carried out in the most original and classical way, and directly obtain the upgrade rewards of the Law of Death."
"——This is the secret passage to the upper class." (End of Chapter)
