"Okay, put that aside for now. Pannis waved his hand absently: "You were sober forty-seven years ago, right?" ”

"Yes, that's right. Xiaolu nodded vigorously: "I'm bored, so I count it every year." ”

"As for Annie. Pannis turned his gaze to the little banshee, who was sitting next to the fawn, poking curiously at the fawn's ribs: "Do you remember how long you woke up?"

"Ahh However, I guess it should be fifty or sixty years, not for long. ”

"Fifty or sixty years. Pannis nodded thoughtfully, touching his chin and remaining silent.

"What's wrong, Pannis. Catherine was surprised by Pannis's behavior and asked with concern, "What do you think?"

"I said it before. "In the last seventy or eighty years, the undead have come back to their senses a lot more. ”

"Yes, I did. Catherine agreed, "Indulgence and Passion told me the news before. ”

"But have you ever heard of a place where the undead are wreaking havoc?" asked Pannis, "Have any of you heard of a large-scale event like the undead war that the corpse witch started before?"

"Huh?" Several ladies looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time: "You really haven't heard of that." In the records of history, every time this kind of conscious undead appears, it will indeed be accompanied by a disaster, which is why people are so afraid of conscious undead. But it's true that as you said, the undead who have been revived in recent decades have not done anything terrible, and when we met Anne and the fawn, they were not terrible at all, but very cute, is it because we are very lucky?"

"I'm afraid it can't be explained by luck alone. Catherine unconsciously tapped the sword in her hand: "I really can't figure it out, maybe this group of sane undead happens to be extraordinarily kind." ”

"Maybe. Pannis's face was very strange, as if he was full of worries, and he reluctantly said: "Maybe what you just said is the correct answer, no one can say." ”

"Really?" The three girls in the adventure group all injected Pannith with very strange eyes, and after getting acquainted with him, they easily discovered his abnormality, Catherine couldn't help but ask, "Are you okay, is there anything embarrassing?"

"No, I'm fine. Pannis woke up and grinned: "I was just thinking, after solving the problem, I secretly cooperated with the fawn to develop this place into a tourist location, and then brought a few beautiful women to visit here every time, and before this time, the fawn manipulated the skeleton to jump out of the bone pile, and then ...... Hey, hey, ......hey, hey,

"Idiot. The girls rolled their eyes at Pannis, but they all knew that he was deliberately diverting the subject, so they didn't hold him accountable for being stupid, and continued to ask the fawn, "Do you remember the first time you woke up, when you had any signs, or rather, any special feelings?"

"No. The fawn shook his skull and said in an affirmative tone, "It's as if I woke up from a sleep, and suddenly woke up." But when I woke up, I saw my own body and realized that I was dead. ”

"Me too, as if I had suddenly woken up. Anne put her little head in front of the fawn and competed for Catherine's gaze: "And it took me years to realize I was dead." ”

"What do you have to be proud of? The fawn shouted dissatisfiedly: "That only shows that you are dull, you are a dull fool." ”

"Hmph. Anne crossed her waist and said, "Only a little guy like you would make a noise over such a trivial matter, I am already an adult, I don't care about you." ”

Anne's words became the trigger for the war, and there was no doubt that the war broke out. The two undead quickly twisted together and rolled around on the ground. The adults did not try to stop the communication between the two children, and everyone understood the meaning behind Anne's actions, and in the face of a child who had also been lonely and scared for many years, Anne was clumsily using her own way to divert the fawn's attention from the sad past. So no one interfered, and let them fight together.

"Did you wake up suddenly?" Catherine muttered, "there must have been some trigger for a few undead to wake up with the same sudden awakening in a short period of time." ”

"It's pretty obvious. Pannis sighed and interrupted Catherine's struggle: "The sudden appearance of a number of intelligent undead has appeared in the last seventy or eighty years. If we consider that it will take some time between the event and the actual impact on the undead, then we can push this time forward by another thirty or forty years. ”

"The disaster of the return of the dead?" Catherine's face changed, Huo Ran got up, stared at Pannis, and said, "It actually has something to do with the disaster of the return of the dead?"

"Actually, some people have been aware of this phenomenon for a long time. "And there are people who associate this phenomenon with the terrible battle a hundred years ago." They believe that it is precisely because the door of death was opened that year, and the power of the fragments of the divine soul polluted by the energy of death was projected into the Yala world through the door of death, that the undead in the Yara world gradually interfered with the origin of the undead in the Yara world, causing new changes to the undead. ”

"Pennis is right. Vivien looked up from the work of the record and said, "I've heard them mention it by chance before, but it was two years ago, and I've only heard a few words, and it's not something worth paying attention to, so I've forgotten about it for a long time." As soon as Pannis said it, I remembered that there were people who did pay attention, or at least paid attention to these changes. ”

"Then this change ......" Lina listened a little intrigued, and then she reacted and asked, "Is this change good or bad?"

"No one knows. Pannis spread his hands and said irresponsibly: "Theoretically, it should be a good thing that the undead slowly start to produce orderly individuals from disordered groups. However, based on the experience of several events a long, long time ago, nothing good happened, so the strong people who had the heart to pay attention were also observing, and they were not prepared to make a decision right away. Otherwise, do you think that if you use the pendant to hide Anne in and out of the Adventurer's Guild, Odin will not be able to sense the existence of the undead? ”

"I see. Catherine's previous questions and doubts were finally answered, and she suddenly said, "No wonder, I finally understand." In other words, at this stage, those demigod powerhouses can be regarded as acquiescing to the existence of this kind of intelligent undead?"

"It's just an observation, not a tacit approval. Pannis corrected: "And not all, although most of the demigods and Legendary-level powerhouses will only observe the intelligent undead from the perspective of a bystander, there are still some radicals who insist on destroying them, so you should still be careful in the future, to the degree...... Just don't let Anne run out on the street and on the front yard grass of the house. ”

"Well, as long as you don't get directly seen by others, it's fine, right? Catherine said happily: "I understand, in the future, when no one is around, I can let Anne breathe in the backyard of the mansion, it's great." ”

"But what exactly are those people observing?" Vivien asked, sensitive to research, "just to see if each of these intelligent undead is harmless? ”

"yes, it's not that simple. Pannis sighed: "They are more through observation, judging that this group of sanity undead did not have any reason for attacking and killing. After all, hundreds of years ago, those sane undead would always wage war for power or desire or other things, and each one of them would create a great crisis if they were given the opportunity. Now it's suddenly like this, they always want to know the reason, and then make other judgments through that reason. ”

"Why? I think it has something to do with Nelly-sama. Catherine mentioned Nelly, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she said depressedly: "I heard the legend that Lord Nelly used her body as a container, trapped the soul fragment and then self-destructed, and died with the soul fragment. Presumably, after the will of the Divine Soul Fragment was filtered by Lord Nelly, it only affected those undead who were good in nature, and deliberately avoided those who had evil souls. ”

"Perhaps, it's all just speculation. At this moment, Pannis looked up at the sky a little distractedly, and after a long time he said, "Okay, there is too much time to delay. I don't know what will happen after passing through the soul tunnel, but in two or three hours it will be night, so we must speed up a little bit and get ready to go now. ”

"You, you, you're leaving?" I don't know when the two little undead no longer fight, and sat together again and whispered intimately. Suddenly hearing Pannis's words, the fawn said in a daze, "This is leaving, can't you stay a little longer?"

Anne secretly patted the fawn's hand, jumped over and said, "Sisters, and Brother Pannis, I want to stay here with the fawn for a while, can you come and pick me up after a while?"

"Oh?" Catherine asked with a smile as she looked at Anne and thought it was funny, "Why?"

"She's been here alone for so many years, it's so lonely. Anne whispered, "I want to be with her and make her happy memories, even if it's only for a while." ”

"Have you thought of a better way?" Catherine asked, touching Anne's head, "Invite your new friend home to live with you, so that you can stay with her all the time?"

"Huh?" the two little undead made surprised voices at the same time, and asked in disbelief in surprise, "Is this really possible?"

"Why not?" Catherine asked rhetorically, no longer teasing them, and said with a smile, "But not now, you two will play here for a while, we will go into the valley of the altar to solve the problem, and when the trouble is solved, we will come out to pick you up, and then we will go home together." ”

"Thank you, sister. The two little undead hugged each other excitedly, unwilling to part for a long time. (To be continued.) )
