Chapter 619 16. Businessman from Another World

Compared to a warrior and a king, the Skeleton Duke is more like a scholar, exuding the temperament of Dean Blehim, so that it is easy to ignore its near-legendary power. .

"Is it obvious?" Annan asked.

Why does it seem like no one except the Crimson Princess and her men can tell that she is not a vampire?

“We are the undead, so the feeling will be clearer.” Duke Skeleton replied, “You don’t have the smell of a vampire.”

"A human being who serves as the messenger of the blood race. It seems that you also have other tasks..."

"No, Lina and I are...friends, and I am willing to help her."

" No wonder.”

No wonder?

Feeling that he would have to return to the warlock if he continued to ask, Annan changed direction: "Do you know what is going on outside?"

"The infection in Lost City..."

"What happened to Lost City?"

After setting off, many things seemed to be related to Lost City.

“It used to be the territory of the princess, but something happened, and weirdness began to appear in the city.”

“What is the weirdness?”

"Things we cannot understand."

"What is incomprehensible?"

"We will recognize the logic of spellcasting by taking apart spells. Weird things we don't know, they are disordered and chaotic , you will only get a mess if you dismantle it."

"So the consciousness I see is because of it?" Annan thought thoughtfully.

The Skeleton Duke raised his head for the second time: "What did you see?"

"A girl who was with the white deer. She said that she was the consciousness of the forest and wanted to take a last look at the forest."

The flashing soul fire of the Skeleton Duke revealed his reminiscence: "We have been together for hundreds of years. Neighbor, is it going to disappear too..."

"Or is it because of Lost City?"

"Yes..."

Annan watched the Skeleton Duke finish. Draw the magic circle and put the remaining materials aside.

"Aren't you going to leave?"

"Wait a minute, I have one more thing to do... I can only do it at the edge of Lost City."

The Skeleton Duke continued to use Eyeballs, rotten flesh, and ribs form an evil ritual.

“Did you create the weirdness in the forest?”

“Have you encountered any weirdness?”

"A... burnt girl, she is seeking revenge on the noble who killed her family."

"How did you hide from it?"

"Hide from it? I just killed that noble He was rescued and then thrown back after finding that he was innocent."

"This is also a way..." Duke Skeleton thought thoughtfully. "It's not me, they come from Lost City. The area of ​​Lost City is gradually spreading."

"Can't you stop Lost City?"

The Skeleton Duke raised his head, and his sight seemed to look through the soil to the sky.

“If the stars cannot return, the Lost City will never regain its tranquility...”

“The stars...the gods?”

The Skeleton Duke made a sigh-like sigh. Voice.

When preparing to activate the magic circle, Annan asked: "Should I use evasion?"

"No, experience is equally important to a warlock."

Like a scholar, Duke Skeleton activated the magic circle, and a strange gray mist began to rise, forming a surging wall of sighs. Gradually, the gray fog rolled up, revealing an unsettling outline.

The tall silhouette covered by the gray robe appeared in the gray mist. Under the gray robe were tentacles holding up the body, and black mist and blood surged between its tentacles.

"I call it a merchant, and you can trade items with it." The Skeleton Duke is happy to share knowledge.

"Are you sure? It looks like an evil pagan."

"I have traded many times, and the things they brought out do not belong to Allen's world, but should be creatures from other worlds." As he spoke, the Skeleton Duke named a shopping list that Annan could not remember.

The gray mist surged, spitting out a bunch of things bought by the Skeleton Duke like a living creature. "Do you want to buy something?" Its soul fire looked at Annan.

“I won’t buy anything.”

“Buy some.” Duke Skeleton encouraged.

"Do you get a commission?"

"Stepping into the unknown is our motivation."

Annan doesn't want to be exposed to this kind of existence without beauty, but this sentence is really beautiful.

"For the sake of this sentence... I want a copy of the Leaf of the World Tree."

"You buy this with them?" Duke Skeleton asked strangely.

"If not, don't blame me."

As a result, the gray mist brewed for a while, and actually spit out a falling elm leaf, which was caught by the skeleton Duke's hand bone.

"Is this the leaf of the World Tree?"

Annan felt a relaxing atmosphere from the elm leaf with jagged edges.

“Maybe it’s the World Tree of their world.”

"Do you need it?"

The Skeleton Duke shook his head: "This is your thing."

"Then how should I pay the reward? Soul? Or treasure?"

"Their pricing of items is different from ours. You can take out the items you want to exchange and let them choose. But let me pay for you this time."

The Skeleton Duke waved With a wave of his hand, the magic ring worn on its finger bones tilted out a pile of intact bones.

For Annan it was desecration of the dead, for Duke Skeleton it was human trafficking.

The tentacle merchant who took away the bone pile disappeared together with the gray mist. The Skeleton Duke put away the items he exchanged, and the "Leaf of the World Tree" was borrowed for research.

“Can we go back now?”

“I accepted your assistant’s commission to find you back, so that it will give priority to cooperating with the Crimson Princess.”

"Your contract spirit is different from other warlocks I have seen..."

"What are the other warlocks like?"

Annan has not come into contact with many warlocks, or rather very few, only Claudia, a cheap magic stone producer in Liberty City.

"It's just like the rumors."

Annan fell silent when he thought about the rumors about the warlock.

"Then, young and brave man of his word, I would like to entrust you with——"

"I refuse." Annan interrupted immediately.

“Don’t you want to hear the content of the commission first?”

“That’s right... Just tell me.”

The Skeleton Duke told us that the Lost City was not that long ago The past:

The City of Lost Words was built in a strange place. In order to protect the humans and believers here, the kings and gods suppressed the place. However, with the years of turmoil, the gods lost contact and could not be supplemented. As time went by, strange things appeared again in Wencheng.

The citizens of the city left, and the princess imprisoned herself in Strange City, using her bloodline to suppress Strange City.

After listening to the story, Annan still said: "I refuse."

"You are not worried that I will refuse to alliance with you because of this." The soul fire of the Skeleton Duke flickered on and off.

Annan said nonchalantly: "I am just a messenger, and I have done what I can do."

Annan is not a vampire, and this is not making profits for Free City. It is enough for Skeleton Duke to lean towards Crimson Princess in the subsequent alliance.

"Okay..." Duke Skeleton showed obvious disappointment.

"How did the vampire rescue the princess?" Annan thought of something.

"Rescued? The princess is still in Wenwen City."

Annan frowned.

The princess is in Lost City... Then who is the princess in Huadu?
