Chapter 383: Rotten Tower Guard
The "Old Code" absorbs the undead dragon soul fire particles flowing back with the force of a whale.
The complete decay of the Sorrowful King is attracting the undead souls of all the guards in the rotten tower, and rapid footsteps can be heard from the bottom of the spiral staircase.
Helot loudly urged the "Old Code": "Hurry up! It's almost done. Are you ready to swallow it all?"
The "Old Code" was not given to Hai Lott made no response and continued to greedily suck in the soul fire particles pouring down.
The footsteps were getting closer. If the guards here discovered what the "Old Code" had done, they would never let themselves and their father leave easily.
The anxious Helot stretched out his hand and used the hand of the mage to pull back the "Old Code" from the air. As soon as he stuffed the magic book into his space bag, the guards rushed into the hall one after another.
Looking at the empty ruling throne, every undead who came in was stunned.
"Lord Soul Eater, has the King... left us?" A ghost general covered in bone armor asked the Soul Eater.
Helot was able to take back the "Old Code" in time, which made the Soul Eater secretly relieved. He replied to the ghost general: "Yes, the king left us and left this world."< br>
The hall fell into extreme silence.
Although they all knew that the Sorrow King was decaying, when the last moment came, it was still difficult to accept this fact.
After a while, the ghost general asked again: "The last king you met, what did he say to you?"
Soul Eater: "As usual, he answered some questions for me. The difficulties I encountered in magic. I don’t know who can guide me to continue to explore the secrets of magic like him.”
There was another long silence in the hall.
Every undead here has received the teachings of the Sorrowful King and regards the Sorrowful King as his godfather. After listening to the words of the soul eater, he naturally couldn't help but recall the scene where he listened to the king's teachings.
Until the ghost general noticed Herot beside the soul eater, he asked: "You are with the soul eater, why do you come to see the king."
Helot Asked back: "Who are you?"
The soul eater introduced: "This is Godot, the guard of the Rotten Tower."
"Godot, the guard of the Rotten Tower." Helot Answer: "I came to see the King of Sorrow, and naturally I have my purpose. I don't need to tell you what the King of Sorrow said to me when he received me."
"Human!" Godot Guardsman shouted angrily: "Answer my question seriously, otherwise you will not be able to get out of the Rotting Tower."
The Soul Eater blocked Helot in front and reprimanded tit for tat: "Prisoner Guardsman , your mission is to guard the Rotten Tower, and you are not qualified to stop the people the Sorrowful King agreed to summon."
Gordo stepped forward and almost stood up to the Soul Eater and said: "Soul Eater, I can just feel it here. There is extremely powerful energy, and the moment I stepped into the hall, that energy disappeared.
There are only two of you here. If you don't explain it clearly to us, we won't let you leave the rot easily. Tower."
When the "Old Code" absorbed the undead dragon soul fire particles, it did create a huge energy field here, which would definitely be noticed by these powerful undead guards.
Since these undead souls can guard one floor of the tower, they are naturally extremely powerful. Compared with them, the soul eaters can only be considered the weakest. Faced with the pressing guard chief, the soul eater released his momentum: "At the last moment of his decay, the king used all his energy to evolve me into a dracolich. This is what you just felt, and it is also The secret that the king doesn’t want me to tell.
Are you satisfied? Lord Godot! ”
All undead are emitted by this high-level undead. Shocked by the pressure, he couldn't help but take a step back, looking at the soul eaters in disbelief.
The Soul Eater took off the human skin mask he had been wearing, and his appearance gradually changed, taking on the shape of a dragon. A pair of dragon horns sprouted from his head, and a pair of bone dragon wings spread out behind him. The soul fire in his eye sockets was as green as emerald stone, and the death energy formed a shabby cloak wrapped around his body.
Although there is some gap between the strength of the Soul Eaters and the undead guarding the Rotten Tower, these undead who guard the side of the Sorrowful King day and night are absolutely loyal to their king. Not only did they feel the power of the dragon from the pressure of the soul eaters, but they also felt the presence of the Sorrowful King from this power.
This kind of familiarity is as if the already corrupt ruling party is right in front of him.
Guard Chief Gordo retreated again to distance himself from the Soul Eater, and then saluted respectfully: "I'm sorry, Lord Soul Eater! We shouldn't doubt the King's favor and trust in you, please do whatever you want. Punish me.”
All the undead guards saluted the soul eaters together, as if they were meeting the former King of Sorrow.
The Soul Eater said to Gordo: "I am the king's dragon tamer, and you are the king's guard. I have no power to punish you. Since the king has become corrupt, you can wait for the next one. Be the ruling king.”
"Yes, Lord Soul Eater." Gordo asked again: "Before the King decayed, did you say who would inherit the throne?"
"No!" The Soul Eater replied simply: " Whoever wants to rule the rotten wasteland must rely on strength to sit on this ruling throne. If there is nothing else, we have to leave!”
Gordo immediately led the guards out of the way and watched the soul eaters and Hailuo go. Te left, and when they were about to go down the spiral staircase, he said: "Before the new ruling king enters the Rotten Tower, we are all willing to fight for you. I hope you will not let down the power given to you by the king, and at the same time, the responsibility given to you!"
After a while, the reply from the Soul Eater came from under the spiral staircase: "Just guard the Rotting Tower."
"Follow your orders, Lord Soul Eater!"
The main hall returned to silence. Guard Chief Godot stared at the empty ruling throne, not knowing what he was thinking.
An undead guard said: "I think the king wants to let the soul eater succeed to the throne. The king has always trained him as a successor, and now he has given some of his power to him. He.
Why don’t you say that?
As long as he tells the king that he will inherit the throne, we will be loyal to him immediately. "
The Imperial Guard. Long Gordo said: "What's the use of being loyal to him if we are the only ones? He has been with the king for too short a time and has no prestige at all to subdue his ministers and lords. If the king's decay can be postponed for a hundred years, even for five For ten years, there will be no objection to the Soul Eaters taking over the throne.”
"Lord Guard Chief, what should we do?"
"Didn't Lord Soul Eater give an order? Guard the Rotten Tower... No matter who it is, as long as he cannot sit on the ruling throne, he will Not the ruling king.
We will stay here until the real owner of this throne sits on it. "
Gordo kneeled under the throne with many guards.
At this moment, the Soul Eater still didn’t know that what he said had been misunderstood by Gordo. He just didn't want these rotten tower guards to cause trouble to him, but he didn't expect that Gordo would interpret them as blocking all the undead that wanted to enter the rotten tower.
