Chapter 628 25. Visiting the Wooden House in the Forest
Annan got on the Skeleton King’s gorgeous carriage and drove towards the City of Lost Words.
But on the way, they were blocked by a vampire.
"Need help?" Skeleton King asked.
Annan recognized the outline as the vampire who was thrown out by him at the banquet: "He mustered up the courage to block the way, so don't let him down."
Jumping off the tall carriage, the vampire standing under the shade of the tree raised his head and grinned cruelly: "I've been waiting for you for a long time..."
"You are really stupid..."
Annan wonders if sleeping too much makes people stupid? You have to tell Ilimoyas when you go back.
"I am a vampire, and you are also a vampire. I am an elite, and you are also an elite. I am a warlock, but you are not..." Annan said to the vampire whose smile gradually disappeared: "And you didn't notice that I was sitting Whose carriage are you riding?”
“Uh...”
Suddenly, the vampire opened his black cloak and turned into an afterimage that swept toward Annan.
"As long as I catch you, I'll be fine!"
"You've told me your plan..." Annan casually pulled Lemon over, fought off the vampires, and then took advantage of them to fight You have to go back and forth to continue casting spells.
Annan thought of the innate spell that he had never been able to cast, and tentatively sang the first verse.
Songs like hymns resounded in the forest, and a flock of circling birds fell towards Annan, but were frightened away by a scarlet door that suddenly opened behind him.
"What is that?!"
The vampire who was fighting with Lemon suddenly felt a breath that made him tremble, and he looked uneasily.
Annan ignored him and continued to chant the talent spell.
The scarlet light on the door behind him became more and more intense, surging with blood-like color, almost engulfing Annan.
"What is that!!!" The vampire's mouth opened to an inhuman angle and he screamed and backed away.
The scarlet door did not open, but gradually bloomed with dazzling red light and the pungent smell of blood. Just when it was about to turn into a scarlet moon, it suddenly dimmed and disappeared.
The surroundings returned to natural brightness, and the smell of blood lingering in the nose seemed to be just an illusion. .
Annan, who had run out of magic power, sighed: "Lemon, I leave it to you."
It still doesn't work. It seems that you can't even think of singing the first part of the spell before reaching level six. As for the spellcasting that showed different phenomena this time... Annan was almost used to the uncertainty of his spells.
"Who are you!?" The vampire's trembling tone made him lose his resistance.
"I am..." Annan's tone changed and he said hoarsely: "You are targeting my Lian Na, but you don't know who I am?"
"You are Lord Odris!? This is impossible. , how can you still be alive!" the vampire screamed like crazy.
"Why is it impossible..." Annan sneered.
The vampire's fear reached its peak, and then... fainted.
Annan asked Lemon to check, and looked helplessly at the Skeleton King in the carriage: "Who is Odris?"
"I think he was talking about Serena's husband and Crimson Princess's father."
"He actually believed that?"
What if all the enemies of Crimson Princess were so stupid? alright.
"That spell is amazing. I'm afraid only high-level vampires can do it...a new spell?"
"My innate spell requires too much magic power and I can't release it. .”
"This must be a pretty powerful spell."
"I think so too." But Annan is not happy about this, "But the spell I want is not this kind."
" Spells are not rigid in form, and any spell driven by magic can become a spell."
"I know...but is it considered magic?" Annan looked at Lemon and grabbed the unconscious vampire, "It's just a magic spell. Pulling someone I know from afar... What's the difference between me going out and bringing a bunch of friends with me?"
"Hahaha... We always long for things we don't have," the Skeleton King said with a smile. Lemon caught the vampire back, and Annan looked at it: "Skeleton...Duke, can I ask you a favor?"
"Send it back? It's okay."
An alchemy bag appeared in Skeleton King's bone hand. It poured out some bone powder, sprinkled it on the grass outside the carriage, and recited a spell.
A skeleton soldier made of mud, bone powder and stones climbed up, exuding a powerful aura, and its body was still covered with weeds.
“Return it to the Necropolis.”
The clay skeletons grabbed the vampires and ran toward the way they came.
“Don’t necromancy have to rely on corpses?” Annan looked at the back of the skeleton curiously.
"I used corpses." Skeleton King said.
"Bone meal?"
"Dirt." Its white bone fingers pointed at its feet.
"We all say that the continent of Allen is the world of the living, but I say that this world belongs to the dead... The living will eventually die, and the undead for countless years have always slept underground."
"Theirs Corpses constitute the material and circulation in this world," Annan, who was infected by the Skeleton King, also said.
"You are like a great mage at this moment." The Skeleton King looked at Annan with admiration.
They continued on their way, and with the help of vampires blocking their way, Annan told the Skeleton King the Crimson Princess’ current predicament: “Do you have any suggestions?”
“Do you know the city lord of Huadu? ?”
"I don't know..."
"I don't know either...but Crimson Princess knows, doesn't she?"
"I'm just worried that they will be discovered by humans... what will happen to Crimson Princess by then? It will be worse."
"What I want to say is, don't really treat the Crimson Princess as a child..." Skeleton King said meaningfully, "Even I am amazed by the way she escaped from the clutches of the Parliament. "
"You mean she pretended not to be so smart in front of me?"
"I don't know."
Annan temporarily put aside his doubts and pointed the way for the Skeleton King.
In the evening, a wooden house standing alone in a forest glade appeared in front of them.
"This is it." Annan picked up the basket and jumped out of the carriage.
"A strange person scattered on the edge of the strange zone..."
As the Skeleton King was talking, it suddenly saw Annan appear in its field of vision - he walked boldly to the strange door like a warlock courting the dragon clan.
Knock knock knock——
Not long after he knocked on the door, the door opened a crack.
The Skeleton King's soul fire flickered on and off. The moment the door opened, it felt a shadow fall on its soul fire... Then, the food-filled bag lifted by Annan basket dispersed.
"I brought you food, can we-"
Bang——
Before I could say anything about going in and taking a look, the door of the wooden house in the forest closed again.
Annan had no choice but to put down the basket after being shut out, and turned around and said, "It seems she is not in a good mood today."
Annan did not leave, but walked around to the wooden house. The wild flowers that had been picked over the past few days had withered. He collected some wild flowers with roots, planted them around the tombstones, and returned to the skeleton carriage.
“Let’s keep going.”
Not long after they left, the door of the forest cabin quietly opened a crack, an arm covered with burn marks stretched out, grabbed the basket, and retracted behind the door.
