"How did you become like this?" Catherine was a little surprised at the old dog's current form.

The old dog shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know what's going on, I suddenly melted." I was just wandering underground, and I heard the Overseer's question, and I answered it. ”

Catherine thought for a moment and said, "Are you already in control of your blood?"

"It seems like it can. The old dog nodded and shook his head, "I can't say that I am in control, I have traveled to countless countries in my sleep, and have established friendships with the kings of those countries. When you wake up, you can communicate with your blood. They are now my friends and will tell me some fancy ideas from time to time for me to do. ”

"Like sneaking underground?"

"Yes. ”

Catherine was almost certain that the old dog had effective control over his blood, and that he had acquired unexpected abilities. As the Armored Knight revealed, mastering the blood will be the key to victory. The old dog's current ability can be said to be the best stalker ability, which is very effective in both reconnaissance and sneak attack in battle. Moreover, the female mage saw from the changes of the old dog the prospect of controlling the blood in the future.

"Before the second landing, we had to find the best place to stay. Catherine turned to the guillotine around her, "Do you think we should go and ask the undead?"

"The Knight of Armor has brought us here, I'm afraid that's what we're trying to do, to give us a chance to get information. The old dog pondered and added, "If the Overseer is relieved, he can leave the inquiry to me." ”

The old dog once said that as a member of the lost dog, his specialty is that he is a diplomat. Catherine nodded and said, "You can try it with those guys on the guillotine first, and remember to ask about the undead on the gallows as well." ”

When the old dog was gone, Catherine walked towards several gallows where the undead were hung. She didn't get too close, just watched from a distance. In this area of guillotines and gallows, there are more than two or three hundred guillotines, four or five meters apart from each other, and the gallows are scattered everywhere, with only a few dozen pairs in total. In addition to the Knights in Armor, there are four pairs of gallows with undead hanging from them.

The first gallows hangs a skinny mummy. She appeared to be a woman, with very little strips of cloth wrapped around her body, revealing a black, iron-like body. It was significantly smaller than the hunky mummy Catherine had encountered in the asphalt lake. She hung motionless, the rope that hung her so tightly that even the beams of the gallows were bent a little.

On the second gallows was a huge skeleton. He was so huge that even when he sat on the ground, he was almost as tall as a gallows three or four meters high. So the rope was just symbolically put over his head.

On the third gallows hangs upside down a crimson bat longer than an arm. Like the giant skeleton, the rope was only symbolically placed around his neck. The bat seemed to be particularly sensitive, and when Catherine looked at him, it spread its wings and flew up in a flutter. He froze in the air, glaring at Catherine with a menacing look. The female mage's whole body suddenly shuddered, and the hostility of the crimson bat could reach her mind from afar. Although she didn't understand why the undead was so visibly hostile to her, Catherine immediately chose not to look at him. After all, in the process of landing on the island before, because of a few more glances, the skeleton mage who followed them made the female mage suffer a big loss, and she almost couldn't control the blood on her body.

The undead on the fourth gallows are the most peculiar. It wasn't one undead, it was a bunch. Maybe five or six, maybe seven or eight or more chicken skeletons were put together in ropes. Catherine looked at the skeleton chickens with an indescribable strangeness in her heart. For a while, she couldn't count the number of chickens.

The female mage counted for a long time and finally gave up, and when she turned around, she suddenly saw the old dog lying beside her. The old dog returned quietly, and Catherine never noticed him. I don't know how long he has been lying quietly by his side like this, and the female mage is a little uneasy in her heart. For the first time, the old dog gave her a sense of fear.

The old dog looks listless. He said weakly, "Overseer, no undead wants to tell me about my footing. They all said that they could only get information if they were paid blood. ”

Catherine wasn't surprised, if the undead were just mentally retarded people, they wouldn't have gathered in this place. Being able to learn that "blood can be exchanged for information" is valuable in itself. Once again, the importance of blood has been demonstrated.

"Have you heard the origin of the undead on the gallows?"

"Although they didn't want to say the specifics, they told me that the spirits were from the top. The old dog pointed to the inverted castle in the distance and the seven-story black mist plain that surrounded it, "The upper layer is the air plain composed of those black fogs. It is said that the higher the level of the undead, the stronger the strength. ”

"That's right. The old dog seemed to remember something, "Those chickens, the ones the Overseer was looking at just now, are from the third level, and they are the most powerful undead here. ”

The Bone Chicken turned out to be the most powerful existence, Catherine really didn't expect it. She couldn't help but shake her head, as she had the thought of making contact with the undead on the gallows. Originally, the chickens were the first choice, but now it seems that it needs to be reconsidered.

The mage looked back at the Armored Knight, the Iron Remnant Castle should be at least the location on the second floor.

"You've just communicated with the undead, which one is more talkative?" asked Catherine the old dog.

"The skeleton sitting on the guillotine. ”

Following the old dog's gaze, Catherine saw a skeleton with thick bones and an iron helmet, sitting on a guillotine far from her. There were also three or four small skeletons around him, seemingly chatting.

Catherine walked towards the iron-helmeted skeleton with her feet raised, and the old dog followed slowly.

The skeletons quickly noticed the mage, and they stopped talking, picking up the rusty sword stuck in the ground and glaring at the visitor.

"I'm going to Stiff Town. Catherine said as she stood two meters away.

The skeletons were visibly stunned. The Iron Helmet skeleton reacted the fastest, opening its mouth with a "gurgling" sound of teeth.

It took two or three seconds for Catherine to barely make out what he was saying in the second half of the sentence.

“…… The skeletons of the Garden of Bones have never been afraid of the waste of Stiff Town. ”

Things went even more smoothly than expected, and the female mage used the "Stiff Town" as a temptation, and the effect was remarkable.

"He recommended me to Stiff Town. Catherine pointed to the zombie hanging from the gallows she encountered when she landed on the island.

With a "dang", the iron-helmeted skeleton swung out a sword and slashed at the guillotine. "That liar, who deceived our king, became a greeter. Stiff Town is too far away, don't think about rushing back if you go. The Bone Garden is the closest, and it takes half a day to get there. (To be continued.) )
