Chapter 58: An Invitation to the Council of the Dead

"Alice, you guys, I'll settle accounts with you later, until then...... I don't want to ask, but Stein, the Book of the Dead can't be a resurrection, right?"

By the way, reminding the trembling werewolf Lori, I turned my gaze to Stein and asked reluctantly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yes.. I really don't want to see her, but Alice has been exposed, and it's not good to deceive herself.

To be honest, I desperately don't want her to wake up right now.

After all, the Book of the Dead seems to be a very high-level soul creation, and although she is in a state of no energy and this broken book, on the other hand, she does not need to spend a lot of resources to maintain her daily life.

But if she wakes up, it means that this thing will definitely eat up a huge amount of resources......

And at present, the only energy that the Undead Fortress can consume for her seems to be the magic crystal.

Originally, the current Undead Fortress was in ruins, and it was just when the magic crystal was needed, but now it was all eaten by this ruined girl. And I've only been away for a little over a month, and Alice has been taught bad by her.

"Ah, that's right. Lord Eshuin, Lord of the Book of the Dead is currently sleeping in beauty, so he did not come to greet you. ”

Hearing me say this, Stein nodded solemnly, confirming my thoughts.

Hey, what is this eighth woman, she eats so many resources by herself without consulting me, and as a result, she not only sleeps peacefully, but also doesn't feel embarrassed at all.

Why do these soul creatures have to sleep, and what the hell is beauty sleep, a broken book to sleep beauty sleep?!

"Well, okay. Anyway, I don't want to see her at all, you just tell me how many magic crystals it took to wake her up. ”

"Back to Lord Eshuin, the resource consumption of awakening the Book of the Dead is not much. In addition to the Legendary Slime Queen's Magic Core, it only cost nearly half a ton of high-quality Magic Crystals......"

"How much?!"

"Half a ton of high-quality magic crystals, Lord Aeshuin, probably accounts for more than half of all the mined volume. ”

The Book of the Dead, this Eight Women!!

If awakening Ah Shu can improve the Undead Fortress, I will admit all these resources.

But after centuries of getting along, I know the character of this thing, and even if this thing eats up the resources of the Undead Fortress, it will never help me become a demon king.

Damn, you'd better have a way to spit out all these crystals, or I'll sell you to the Holy See for money!"

"Skeletal Armor, get the Book of the Dead and come to the conference room for me. We're going to the conference room, and I have some plans to make clear to you, and after my business trip during this time, I've decided to do a big deal. ”

"Okay, Lord Ashin, the spatial linkage plan of the Undead Fortress has been completed, please come here. ”

With that, Stein pointed to a corner of the underground altar, where there appeared to be a small teleportation circle.

Looking at this dim magic array, I am still somewhat satisfied in my heart, anyway, the situation is also developing in a better and better direction, not to mention anything else, the office environment is getting better and better.

Because the bedroom of the Book of the Dead does not seem to have a magic circle, the skeleton armor has to climb stairs to run errands.

And I walked into the magic circle with the four-person group, ready to have a small meeting in the conference room in the fortress, and by the way, tell the five-person group about the whole picture of the plan of the Duke of the Dead.

- Twenty minutes later, in the meeting room of the Undead Fortress.

"Where's my seat, Lord Ishin?"

"Oh, you can pick any of the empty seats. But I don't recommend that you pick seats four and five, those are the seats of your predecessors, they have only been dead for a long time, so you should have some respect. ”

After a passing reminder to Paul, who seemed to understand, I looked at him and sat in the number seven seat.

"The opportunity to counterattack has arrived, gentlemen!"

Seeing that the miscellaneous five-person group is ready to listen to the lecture, habitually, I still have a shot of cardiotonic first.

But before I could go any further, Stein interrupted me as if he remembered something:

"By the way, Lord Eshuin, although Lord Book of the Dead has instructed her to be solely responsible for all matters related to the Fortress of the Undead during your absence, now that you have returned, I think it is necessary to report it to you......"

After a pause, Stein spoke as if he remembered something.

Oh, speaking of which, he said at the altar before, it seems that there is something important to report.

However, this guy in the Book of the Dead has seized power casually, and the first leader I designated should be Stein.

"Lord Eshuin, some time ago, the Immortal Council sent messengers to the fortress with an invitation to the next meeting of the dead. It's set for a week later, and the location is the top of the Tower of the Revenant, the residence of Lord Raymond, the Lord of the Lich. ”

Stein was reporting to me on recent events as he pulled out a letter or something from his bosom.

After receiving Stein's letter, I looked at it carefully.

In some years, the parchment scroll had the standard undead language written on it, which roughly meant that I, as the successor of the previous undead king, had been invited to participate in the discussion of the invasion of Patrick's continent.

None of these guys knew that they hadn't gone on the expedition yet, and that I had sent out the information that they were going to invade for free.

However, if I only read the letter, the tone was so cordial and courteous, and the words were sincere, that I suspected that the person who could write this letter was not an undead lord who had been rotten for thousands of years, but like a great nobleman with a good demeanor.

It was Raymond Rechett, and I've heard of it.

Even among the Lords of the Dead, he is a top character, leader of the lichs, and advisor to the former King of the Undead.

At the end of the letter, his soul mark was attached, a pure and strong soul trace, which could not be faked.

"Well, I see, Stein, how did you reply. ”

"Back to Lord Esthein, in fact, invitations like this are sent to the Fortress of the Undead every ten years, and most of the organizers are Lord Raymond. In the past, they were left directly near the gate of the fortress, but this time it was a little different, and Lord Raymond specially sent his subordinate lich to hand it over to us personally......"

Well...... Listening to Stein's words, I thought too.

After all, as a powerful and cunning lich, or my boss's counselor, it is only natural that they will engage in these temptations from time to time, and I don't know where they got the news, as if to confirm that I have really come.

And I guess this meeting is to test the waters, if I appear, I will kill me directly, and if I don't appear, I will not be able to build the fortress of the dead.

"But wasn't I in the Undead Fortress some time ago? How did you solve it, that lich won't believe I haven't come yet, will you? Don't tell me that the lich just saw a few of you and went away satisfied. ”

"No, the lich seems to have decided that you, Lord Ishin, have arrived, and demanded that he must see Lord Ashin, otherwise he will lead an army to attack this place, and finally the Book of the Dead will come forward before he can be quelled. ”

As he spoke, Stein touched his chest with trepidation.

Alas.. It seems that Ah Shu was not resurrected in vain, otherwise all I can see now is a ruin.

"So, Lord Eshuin. What do you think about this invitation to the Council of the Dead?"

Stein asked, a little embarrassed, as if he sensed something was wrong.

It's really distressing, if I didn't have this letter, then I was planning to wake up a few skeletons and then infiltrate the Undead Coalition and get some basic information to resell, but those Death Lords are more difficult than I thought.

If you want to force me to show up, then the plan of the Duke of the Dead will have to come to naught again, and the plan will not be able to keep up with the rapid change.

I don't know where they got the news, but now I'm in a dilemma.

If I go, I won't be able to come back, and if I don't go, someone will call.

Woo, I didn't expect the ultra-long-range teleportation circle to come in handy now, it seems that there is no better way than to run away with the whole family......
