As a separate half-plane, the Boneyard has no distinction between day and night.

There is no sun rising, no moon setting, time seems to be completely meaningless here, only the magic timer brought in by the undead from the Dark Dynasty period, after hundreds of repairs, is still running extremely strong, from this point of view, this awe-inspiring timer can already be regarded as a product of conscience......

For the twelfth timer, the noisy sound of the timer sounded again, Lin Taiping woke up from the darkness slowly, left the slate bed with a sore body, touched the wound on his back that had been scarred, and tried to bend down a few more times, and finally realized that the injury he had suffered in the portal explosion was completely healed.

In fact, he had been woken up even without the reminder of the magic timer, because just outside this dark chamber, the undead creatures were watching "The Lord of the Rings" intently, and enthusiastically discussing the plot, and from time to time they had to express some opinions of their own.

"You know, that magical ring reminds me of the bracelet I made for His Majesty the Emperor during the Dark Dynasty, I remember that at that time, we looted the wealth of the seven seas in order to build that bracelet, aha, speaking of which, do you remember the elves who were robbed by us?"

"It's really stupid, those half-orcs are so weak that they didn't even get that powerful ring by all means, if it were me, I would directly kidnap those halflings' relatives and friends, and then write a letter to them, if they don't hand over the ring, then their relatives and friends will all die!"

"Shut it all up, don't disturb me watching the movies! Look, that fire-breathing dragon is here, this guy looks good, in fact, a long time ago. I also used to have such a pet, and at that time I wanted to turn it into a bone dragon, but that guy was too ugly to refuse my kindness, it was really unaesthetic, isn't it a kind of beauty to be covered in white bones?"

In this way, while reminiscing about the past, continuing to enjoy the movie, and discussing the plot enthusiastically, these undead creatures who have spent a long time in the buried bones have finally found a second pleasure outside of academic research. Of course, this does not mean that they have completely abandoned academic research.

In fact, after watching the Lord of the Rings several times in a row, the Evil Lich King coughed lightly and said solemnly, "Alright, gentlemen, let's let the movie go for a while and discuss today's academic topic...... You know? I've been wondering a lot lately, why does one plus one equal two instead of three, and who says that?"

All right. If this rhythm continues, they will soon touch the Goldbach conjecture, and Lin Taiping couldn't help but roll his eyes, feeling that it was better for him not to participate in this discussion. In fact, instead of having time to discuss why one plus one equals two, you should think about how you can get out of the place of bones and find a way to meet Christine.

However. Judging from the current situation, it seems to be a difficult thing to escape from the burial place, which has been going on for the past few years. Lin Taiping had already tried to communicate with the undead, and had learned some of the secrets of the Buried Bones Place, or it was not a secret at all.

According to the undead creatures, this qiē originated from the complete collapse of the Dark Dynasty, when the Dark Emperor died suddenly for some reason, the dark creatures that once ruled the entire world of Constance were suddenly attacked by the alliance of humans and other creatures, and the Lich King, who was the court mage of the Dark Dynasty at that time, and the undead under his command were also sealed into this place of bones because of the attack of a powerful force.

In fact, over the ages, the Lich King and the Archmage of Skeletons have tried their best to escape from the place where they are imprisoned, but any attempt they have made has failed...... So, from this point of view, since even the powerful undead creatures can't escape from here, what can Lin Taiping, who is just a human being, do?

"So give up, poor human, you can only stay here honestly. During the break in the discussion of mathematics, the Lich King patted Lin Taiping on the shoulder and comforted him with sympathy, "On the bright side, you only need to live for nearly a hundred years to get out of this boring life forever, but we still have to persevere." ”

"Is this a comfort?" Lin Taiping couldn't help but sigh, but still asked again, "Could it be that there really is no way?" Even if it is a method full of dangers, I am willing to give it a try, as long as I can leave this place where bones are buried. ”

Obviously, this question was redundant, and the Lich King didn't bother to answer at all, just looked at him with that sympathetic gaze, but at this moment, the Fire Skeleton Archmage next to him suddenly coughed a few times and said thoughtfully: "Wait, my lord, I seem to remember that we have a path here that leads to the outside world?"

Lin Taiping was overjoyed for a moment, but before he could ask, the Lich King frowned slightly, shook his head very slowly, and said, "Ahem, you mean that road? No, it's impossible, no human can survive that kind of danger, never before." ”

This is true, several skeleton archmages looked at each other, and they must admit that this is indeed the case, but the problem is that Lin Taiping can't listen anymore, and can't help but raise his hand and say: "Gentlemen, don't sell Guanzi, okay? At least you tell me first, what is that road?"

"That's a road, a very ordinary road. The Lich King raised his hand slightly, pointing to the darkness in the distance in the phosphoric light, and in that direction, it seemed that a huge tower could be faintly seen, and a black mist covered most of the tower, and it seemed that the sound of whimpering and crying could be faintly heard.

"So, that's?" Lin Taiping tried his best to keep his eyes open and look at the giant tower shrouded in mist.

"Tower of the Dead!" replied the Lich King calmly, as if he was saying something completely unrelated to himself, "that's the connection between the Bones and the human world, as long as you can enter the Tower of the Dead, you can go back to the human world through the portal there in Guò, and you don't have to worry about teleportation errors or explosions." ”

"But?" Lin Taiping asked tentatively, thinking about it with his heels, he knew that there must be a but, and it was a terrible but. Like all normal plots......

As it turned out, his guess was completely correct, because then, the Lich King sighed helplessly, and even the soul fire in his eyes weakened a little: "However, that tower of the dead can only be entered by humans, otherwise, we would have escaped from here a long time ago." ”

Who's to say it's not? Several skeleton archmages sighed in unison, this is the law of the Buried Bones, and no one can violate it. But Lin Taiping couldn't help but raise his hand and pointed at himself very seriously: "Wait, gentlemen, don't I look like a human?"

"I know you're human, but because you're human, you can't get out of here. The Lich King said a contradictory conclusion, and then before Lin Taiping was about to go crazy, he finally said the final conclusion, "That's right. Entering the Tower of the Dead allows you to leave the Boneyard, and only humans can enter the Tower of the Dead...... However, the big question now is, do you know what's in the Tower of the Dead?"

What's there? I haven't waited for Lin Taiping to ask. The skeleton archmages next to him had already given the answer: "Listen, near that tower of the dead, the undead energy of the entire burial place is gathered, and any human being can be touched by that undead energy. It will be corroded clean in an instant, and there will be no bones left. ”

Well, this passage is a bit informative. Lin Taiping has always felt that he is very smart, but at this moment, it took him ten minutes to finally deduce the contradiction in this passage - first, only humans can enter the Tower of the Dead, and secondly, the vicinity of the Tower of the Dead is full of undead energy, so before humans enter the Tower of the Dead, they will be completely killed by the undead energy near the Tower of the Dead, and they will not be able to leave the place where the bones are buried......

"That's it, you finally get it!" the Lich King and the Archmage of the Skeleton sighed in unison, but added again, "In fact, hundreds of years ago, there was a human who also stumbled into the Buried Bones, and we encouraged that creature to enter the Tower of the Dead and cast a lot of defensive magic on him, but what happened...... Ahem, you should already know. ”

"Well, that guy is really unlucky. Lin Taiping touched his chin speechlessly, but just a moment later, he seemed to suddenly think of something, he was stunned thoughtfully, and fell into silence with a strange face.

"Don't think about it, we've already thought of ways to think of it. The Lich King patted him on the shoulder and sighed helplessly, "Actually, we have also considered how to temporarily turn ourselves back into humans, but this research is really a bit difficult, maybe it will give us another few thousand years......"

"No, it doesn't take thousands of years, it only takes a minute. Before the words fell, Lin Taiping suddenly raised his head and looked at the Lich King with a smile, "You know, I just thought that although you can't temporarily become human, I can temporarily turn myself into an undead." ”

Well, because of his words, the scene suddenly fell into an eerie silence, several skeleton archmages looked at each other with strange faces, and the Lich King suddenly took a few steps back, and said in disbelief: "This, this is impossible, we have studied an academic problem that has not been studied for thousands of years, how can you ...... in just a moment"

Before the words fell, the Lich King, the Skeleton Mages, suddenly all stood up in shock—

Yes, in their sight, Lin Taiping suddenly gushed out black mist all over his body, and under the shroud of this black mist, his body began to change drastically, and large swaths of flesh and blood peeled off from his body, revealing those bloodstained white bones until they were completely transformed into ......

"The god of darkness is above! what do we see?" At this moment, even the well-informed Lich King gasped in disbelief, how could this be possible, how could this be possible, in front of everyone's eyes, this human was actually transformed into ......

"I think I'm supposed to be a skeleton soldier now, though I'm still a little weaker. Facing the stunned expressions of the Lich King and the Skeleton Archmage, Lin Taiping touched the white bones on his body, and then smiled happily, laughing until the bones of his jaw were clicking-

"Alright, gentlemen, now let's talk about how we can get into the Tower of the Dead...... Excuse me, do you need any special rituals?" (To be continued......)
