The city of the dead is built under the snow ridge, it is said to be a city, but it is more like a fortress built against the mountain, in a room in the corner of the edge, under the simple and heavy style, the room is unusually clean and tidy, and there is no cold and damp that other old houses have.

If you don't furnish the interior, it's like a boudoir bathed in the sun.

Large cabinets on both sides of the room were stocked with all sorts of large chests, each with a lid, and a moisture-proof seal, so that nothing could be seen.

But there is a large display shelf on the front wall, on which are placed transparent and encapsulated objects, all of which are hands, feet, heads, hair and other parts of different animals, which makes people feel creepy.

In the middle was a long table with various experimental tools, and on the operating table, a skull was placed on it, and two eyes glowed with a faint blue soul.

In front of the skull, there was a hand, a fresh white pig's hand, which seemed to have just been cut off from the pig's body, and the white silk as thin as a hair extended from the skull to the pig's hand, connecting them into one.

The last wall, the one facing the door, had a stove in the middle, and a pot with a green liquid boiling in it, and a clean lich stirring it carefully.

Lichs are rarely clean, they have skin folds on their bodies, and they are the easiest place to hide dirt and dirt, and the lich's body cannot be washed with water, and the most serious consequence of infiltration is rotting.

Because of the scarlet collar, it will be easier to maintain, burrow into the stalk and lie down for half an hour, and then shake the rest of the soil, the body can become very clean, and even bacteria can not breed.

But in the outside world, it takes a lot of effort to maintain it so cleanly.

The clean lich estimated the heat from time to time, and when he saw that it was almost there, he took the pot and gently poured the liquid on the pig's hands.

With a smack, the pig's hands were not scalded, and even the hair on them was not soft, as if the liquid was not hot, but the green liquor quickly atomized, partially seeping into the pig's hand, and passing along the white silk to the skull.

A part of it rises up and spreads into the air.

The clean lich quickly took a few steps back to prevent the green mist from getting on himself.

The soul fire inside the skull was flourishing, and the silk threads that turned from white to green changed, and the pig's hand actually moved.

The joints are constantly flexing and stretching, and the toes are also stretching and flexing, as if they are alive.

Unfortunately, it didn't take long for the pig's hand to suddenly stiffen, and then, as if cramped, the large tendons under the skin writhed, as if they were about to pop out from under the skin.

Finally, the whole tendon is indented into a large section, and the silk thread is completely stretched.

The lich had no expression on his face, and was not delighted by the movement of the pig's hand, nor frustrated by the breaking of the thread, as if he had done a very ordinary task, and then took out his parchment, and wrote and observed, and recorded everything he saw.

Knock knock, knock knock on the door, the clean lich said nothing, the door had been pushed open from the outside. A succubus dressed in a maid's outfit, with wings on her back, a pair of curved horns, and a pair of sheep's hooves on her ankles, walked in and whispered, "Great Witch, the president asks to see you." ”

Da Wu didn't look back and threw out two words: "I don't see." ”

As soon as the words fell, the loud voice of the Lich President came from the direction of the door: "Great Witch, Levx asks to see you, he has brought news about the Steel Bone Collar." ”

The words of the steel bone collar made the movements of Da Wu's hand pause, and after moving again, she said, "Come in." ”

Standing in the doorway, the lich leader Levx wiped a cold sweat that didn't exist, smiled at the succubus, and then stepped through the door.

The movements of the witch's hand kept moving, and she didn't seem to care, but before Levs could stand firmly, she opened her mouth and asked, "What's the news about the steel bone collar?"

Levs didn't dare to sell Guanzi, and said directly: "The undead natural disaster has returned, and the steel bone collar has laid down the grinding iron city of the southern principality. ”

"Oh?" the Great Witch didn't seem to pay much attention to it, but the movements in his hand stopped: "Just this news? They should have laid down the Iron Grinding City a long time ago, such a high wall blocked there, and it is a shame that the steel bones can endure it for so long." ”

"Well, it doesn't seem to be because of the city wall, I heard that it was because the tax collector of the Iron City levied a heavy tax on the caravan of the steel bone collar that angered the King of the Steel Skeleton, and I guess I didn't care if I let it exist before, just like we found a small hole at the door, but we didn't specifically pull soil to fill it. ”

Levks' words finally made the Great Witch turn around: "The caravan of the Steelbone, tax, when did the humans become so bold?"

Levx couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Great Witch, you have been separated from the outside world for too long, human beings have become more and more bold in recent years, and many people have long forgotten the prestige of the King of Steel Bones." ”

The Great Witch's eyes became deep, and he said meaningfully: "A natural disaster has come. ”

After speaking, he turned around and said, "Okay, I know the news, you can go." ”

"No, no, there is. As he spoke, Lofts handed over a piece of paper, the one that had registered the bounty.

"Succubus?" the Great Witch glanced back at the succubus maid standing in the doorway, and looked thoughtfully at Levks.

Levkes was looked at embarrassed, but had to bite the bullet and say, "The guild means to escort her to the Steelbone Collar together to serve His Majesty the King of Steel." ”

The Great Witch lowered his head, looked at the contents on the leather paper, and said in a tone that could not be heard with joy and anger: "You should serve the steel bone, how much power you borrowed from him, without the king of the steel bone, there would be no guild of the dead, I know what you mean." Let me pack up a bit, you can go, and come back tomorrow. ”

Levkes was overjoyed, he thought it would take a bit of work, the old witch had never been a good dealer.

In order to prevent the change of fortune, Lofx hurriedly gave the salute, and then withdrew from the room, preparing not to appear in the eyes of the old witch until the morrow, lest she regret it. However, he still kept an eye on it, sent someone to watch the entrance and exit, and reported it as soon as there was news, so that he could avoid it in advance.

As soon as Levx was far away, the Great Witch quickly pulled the succubus maid and removed the still burning stove, revealing a dark hole underneath, and the two of them went back and forth.

The pit is an almost vertical round hole, and after slipping out of the hole, it falls a distance of seventy or eighty meters, and comes to a space full of rock walls and impermeable.

This space is located in the underground of the Afterlife City, and it is estimated that even Levx does not know about the existence of such an underground space.

As soon as Da Wu snapped his fingers, the space lit up, revealing the situation inside, she could not need light, but the succubus couldn't.

Seeing the situation around her clearly, the succubus maid's eyes widened, revealing an incredulous expression.

"Quick, put it on. The Great Witch pointed to a humanoid piece of armor on the wall.

The succubus had long been accustomed to obeying the orders of the great witch, although she was a little shocked and puzzled, she still obediently walked to the armor, and was about to study how to wear it, but as soon as her hand touched the armor, the armor actually moved by itself and grabbed the succubus's hand.

"Ahh ”

The Great Witch's order overpowered her fear of armor, and the succubus actually closed her mouth, and although she trembled with fear, she didn't squeak anymore.

The armor took the succubus's hand, slowly circled behind her, and gently hugged her, the armor pieces of the armor opened and closed one by one, enveloping her in the armor.

Only then did the succubus realize that there was no one in the armor, but a way to wear it automatically, which was amazing.

The size of the succubus is very different from that of humans, especially the feet, horns and wings, but this armor is automatically adjusted in this place, not only to fit the body shape of the succubus, but also to wrap the horns on the head and the flesh wings behind the body, from the outside, it looks like a heavy warrior with a strange face armor and a heavy shield. How can there be half a shadow of a succubus.

After wearing, the succubus turned around and found that the big witch was also equipped, if the succubus was wearing armor, then the big witch was a mecha, a chassis like a sled, the whole lower body of the big witch sat on the sled, and the upper body was buckled with a heavy armor.

"Come up. The Great Witch beckoned and pointed to the front half of the sleigh, where there was still an empty seat.

After the succubus sat down, four wheels rolled out from the bottom of the sleigh, and I saw that the big witch seemed to be stepping on something hard in his position, the wheels slowly turned, and the sleigh slid forward.

The rock wall in front of them toppled outward, revealing the snow outside, and the sleigh drove onto the snow, the wheels were folded, and the sleigh carrying the two men slid silently.
