Chapter 13: Pipiru

"Alright then, now we can discuss what you're talking about. My name is Shay, and you should tell me your name as well, right? ”

Xia Yi lifted Erlang's legs, and she would not lose her momentum if she took the initiative a little. If Shay were still a gray matter skeleton, this twisted movement might have broken her leg bones.

"Miss Shay, you can call me Pipiru, this is the name of the greatest alchemist in my mother's Pleto clan!" Pipiru secretly proud, "I invited you to my castle mainly to make a cooperation with you. ”

"I refuse." Shay mercilessly interrupted the feel-good Pipiru, "Why should I work with a skunk with a hidden head and tail?" How do I know if you're not good for me! ”

"I'm not a skunk!" Pipiru shouted, his voice not small, echoing through the halls of the castle, "But Miss Summer, you have to think carefully, this cooperation should start with the identity of Maggie the Harpy." ”

That monster that doesn't have people and doesn't birds? Xia Yi wondered, since it was about his opponent, maybe there was really some need for cooperation.

Seeing that Xia Yi was silent, Pipiru knew that she had acquiesced, and said: "The area we are within about a thousand miles is the territory of the skeleton lord Xisen, and Maggie, the harpy, is Xison's wife. Ha Luha, a skeleton who doesn't even have organs, would marry a lady! ”

Not only did Pipiru find it ridiculous, but Shay also thought it was ridiculous, what did the skeleton need a lady for? Can you love love? What's more, the Harpy is a personal beast...... Ahem, she even suspected that Pipiru was talking gibberish.

"Miss Charity, do you think it's strange? This is what some Great Skeleton Lord has heard that the nobles of the Anthropocene realm have married many ladies, and their emperors are as many as thousands! Therefore, the Great Skeleton Lords have adopted the possession of a lady as a status symbol, and weak lords like Sisson have followed suit, but there are very few female skeletons in the Forsaken Lands, and I wonder where he got a Harpy......"

Hearing this, Xia Yi understood the meaning of Pipiru's words.

"You mean, I, as a female skeleton, threatened the position of Lord Maggie's wife?"

"Clever!" Pipiru did not hesitate to praise, "If Xisen knows that a female skeleton has appeared in his territory, he will definitely bring you back, and Maggie will not be willing to let you replace her!" So even though I coaxed Maggie away with my objects, she wouldn't give up. ”

Shay pondered for a moment, what Pipiru said should be true, and the Harpy could come and kill her at any time.

Where there are women, there is a struggle, Xia Yi has a headache.

"Since you can negotiate with Maggie and get her to compromise, then I will hide in your castle, so that I will be safe and sound?"

"That's pretty much right."

Pipiru was also embarrassed, a little anxious, he could even coax the skeleton lord around, but it was so difficult to deal with the bronze skeleton of Xia Yi.

"But there is a price to pay for me to persuade Maggie to take away, the reason why I was able to occupy an ancient castle in Sison's territory is because of some balance, and Sissen is afraid of my strength and is unwilling to break it, but I can only barely protect myself after all. Most importantly, Miss Charity, you are only looking for self-preservation, haven't you thought about anything else? ”

Pipiru finally showed his fox tail, and Shay had to get serious. She didn't want to be on the lookout for Maggie's pursuit, so she hid in the castle and was scared.

"If Miss Xia Yi can become a lord, naturally she doesn't need to care about the Harpy." Pipiru continued to tempt, "You think, all the skeletons in a radius are at your disposal......"

Although Xia Yi was tempted, he was careless and asked: "The Skeleton Lord is so powerful, even Maggie can lead a dozen bronze skeletons at will, how powerful should Xisen be?" ”

"Oh, I didn't explain it clearly." Pipiru coughed, trying to make his voice as deep as possible, more like the old man, "You have only recently been born, and you don't know the legacy of the Skeleton Lord of the Forsaken Lands. ”

It turns out that most of the skeletons are on the periphery of the Forsaken Lands, and there are other undead creatures such as zombies, ghosts, black knights, lichs, and harpy banshees in the inner perimeter, and a few undead creatures have broken into other realms. Don't look at the periphery of the Forsaken Land, this area is even Xia Yi can't walk for a hundred years.

In the outer periphery of the skeletons, there are countless territories, large and small, and the powerful skeletons occupy a vast territory, and there are occasional wars and annexations between them, but most of the time, the skeleton lords sleep for a long time. The Skeleton Lord, who is only a thousand miles away from Sisen's territory, is the weakest of all the lords.

Xisen himself is just a silver skeleton, and the great lords who occupy a million miles of range, the platinum skeletons, are completely incomparable.

The title of lord is not a criterion of strength, but since ancient times, there has been an ancient tomb in each territory, in which there is a fire of inheritance, as long as you are baptized by the fire of inheritance, you are officially a skeleton lord.

Xisen's territory is nothing more than a poor country, and there is only one Xisen in the Silver Skull.

The fire of inheritance bestows not only on strength, but also on the right to rule the territory. Lords have a skill, Lord Summon, without signing a contract, they can order all skeletons within the territory to fight for them, unless there are skeletons whose strength can already compete with the Lord, they can ignore the Lord Call.

"Fifty years ago, Sisson accidentally broke into the Inheritance Tomb and obtained the Inheritance Flame, and only then did he become a lord by accident, but in fact he was nothing more than a stupid silver skeleton, and his name was given by the Inheritance Fire. Although Miss Chailly, you are now a bronze skeleton, at the rate at which you evolve, it is not impossible to become a silver skeleton. ”

"Wait." Xia Yi interrupted Pipiru's reverie, "I can't evolve or not, since it's a cooperation, what power can you provide?" Do you have a bronze skull servant? ”

"Uh......," Pipiru explained, "I said earlier that I'm not a skeleton, so naturally I can't make a contract with a skeleton, and even if I could, Simon wouldn't allow a force to exist that could outlaw him." But I have quite a few item potions, oh, allow me to reintroduce myself, great alchemist, Master Pipiru! ”

"Poof......

Xia Yi gestured his middle finger into the air and said, "Master Pipiru, listen to your story, it was you who helped me improve my strength, and gave your precious alchemy products to help me obtain the Inheritance Fire and become a lord, right?" ”

"Yes, the great Master Pipiru is more than willing to cooperate with Miss Charity."

Bah! Xia Yi couldn't help but despise this guy, and said hatefully, "Spare no effort to help me? It's me who gets the benefits, and you sacrifice yourself for others and don't ask for anything in return, why do you think you're Uncle Lei Feng! You shouldn't be called Pipiru, I should call you Red Scarf! ”

Although he was confused by Xia Yi's scolding, Pipiru couldn't help but blush, and said embarrassedly: "Please don't doubt the noble qualities of Master Pipiru, ahem...... Well, well, if you can get the Flame of Inheritance, if you grant me a request. ”

"What?"

"Inherit the contents of the tomb, you have to give it to me. Oh, don't ask me what's inside, if I knew the Tao, I wouldn't be so curious, only the unknown has a fatal attraction to alchemists! ”

As he spoke, Pipiru rubbed his hands together and couldn't wait to get the contents of the Inheritance Tomb to study.

Xia Yi thought for a while and said, "It's very fair for each to take what they need and support each other." ”

"So Miss Chailly has agreed to our cooperation?" Pipiru shouted in surprise.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yi suddenly disappeared in place, and reappeared, next to the main seat in the hall, holding something with his hand, and holding a dagger in his right hand against the other party.

Escape the dagger! Just now, Shay quietly put his hand in the leather pouch, grabbed the escape dagger, and jumped to the stone chair in a dodge, grabbing the cunning Pipiru.

"Ahhh What are you doing! Let me go! You'd better let me go! Otherwise, I'll make you look good! Damn skeletons, they don't believe what they say! We said that it was a good agreement! Please let me go, I'm willing to give you what you want, don't kill me, woo woo......"

Ignoring this guy's crying and fussing, Xia Yi thought for a while and asked, "Don't you show up yet?" ”

Pipiru cried, "I can't break the invisibility if you catch me!" ”

Xia Yi sneered and said, "You think I'll let you go and let you escape?" Tell me, how can I get you to show up. ”

"Water, I'm coated with an invisibility potion, just wash it off with water!"

Pipiru didn't dare to be dishonest, he was very cunning, but he didn't know that Lu Dao Xia Yi was more cunning than him! Not at all moved by words!

Xia Yi looked around, and there was naturally no water in the hall. He walked straight to the corner, burned on the iron pot, and poured it on Pipiru's head, even though the fuel had been extinguished, it was still hot, and although Pipiru didn't feel pain, he was also scared and screamed.

After scrubbing around, a small monster appeared in his hands.

Xia Yi had never seen such a small thing, less than half his height! Hands and feet, and webbed toes! A huge head, a bulging toad eye that occupies a quarter of the head! And with two big ears, he really looks like a frog man!

Judging by its dry, lich-like flesh, it should also be an undead creature.

"Goblins? Alright, no matter, dwarf, hand over your fire of oath! Otherwise, it will be my dinner! Xia Yi didn't talk nonsense, and threatened directly.

"Don't! Venerable Master Pipiru, don't be a slave to a skeleton, kill me! ”

Pipiru's stealth was broken, and he couldn't hide his voice anymore, screaming like the friction of two logs, sharp and hoarse.

"Alright then, as you wish."

Shay opened her mouth and made a gesture to eat Pipiru's soul fire.

"Nope! Don't! Damn skeletons! Woowoo...... No, no, great Miss Skeleton, Pipiru is really not tasty, please let me go! ”

Poor Pipiru opened his teeth and claws, and was carried in his hands by Xia Yi and was powerless to resist, kicking his legs together, crying and begging for mercy.

But Shay was unmoved, and saw that he was about to devour Pipiru's soul fire, and only then did Pipiru's skull release a fire of oath, and in the face of death, Pipiru was not a tough guy, and humiliated compromised.

"Damn it...... Oh no, dear Miss Chail, this is the fire of my soul, please don't devour me! It's a shame to be devoured by skeletons! ”

Shay swallowed the fire of the oath and made sure it was correct before throwing Pipiru to the ground.
