Chapter 263 Encounter
The Prophet walked out of the portal and immediately began to look around.
She had visited the edge of the Shadowtwilight Forest before, and the forest left her with only one impression, and that was danger.
The breath of death and wandering undead are the natural enemies of living creatures!
The Prophet can only hope that the teleportation location of his sinful demon servant is a little more reliable, and can teleport to the edge of the Shadow Forest.
But after the prophet looked around, he saw a castle standing in front of her.
There is only one place in the Shadowtwilight Forest where there are human buildings, and that is the core of the Shadowtwilight Forest, according to the legend of the Grand Duke of Bones!
If the Prophet is around Shadowtwilight Forest, he may encounter some low-level zombies or skeletons, such undead that can be killed with a wave of his hand.
Here, the undead she met might have risen to the level of a death knight or a howling banshee, and would be more likely to offend that grumpy Duke of Skeleton!
"Teacher, where is this place?"
What's worse is that her apprentices have also come out of the portal one after another.
"Be careful to hide your breath, Zeru, rebuild the portal."
The Prophet maintained absolute calm in this death penalty area, while she tensed her nerves to be vigilant about the movement of the castle.
In case the Grand Duke of Skeleton gets furious because of the strange intruder, she can use 'this is an order from Her Royal Highness Cecily' to delay her time as a living in this world.
But to stay in this land, even with the protection of the second princess of the Demon Realm, it may not be safe.
"It's so cold, here... is the central area of the Shadow Forest, my lord, I saw the Undead Knight and the Soul Reaper!"
One studious apprentice figured out where he was, and the result was that he trembled with fear from the dangerous undead.
The fear of the dead is not the privilege of human beings, and some cowardly demons also fear these undead.
Under the reminder of that apprentice, the other three apprentices instantly understood how dangerous a place they had come to.
"Looks like a dementor floated past there."
"There are ghouls everywhere..."
Panic began to spread among the four apprentices. The Prophet tried to comfort his apprentices, but before she could speak her comforting words, she heard the sound of some kind of musical instrument...
music? In this kind of place?
The Prophet raised his head incredulously and looked in the direction of the castle. The soothing sound of the piano sounded from the castle. When the Prophet listened carefully, he found that it was an extremely soothing and quiet piece of music.
It was even soft enough to calm her nervousness of stepping into the death penalty area...
The melody had indeed a mind-affecting effect, and even made the Prophet feel a little sadness in his peaceful heart, that is, the sadness of parting from his lover.
But the problem is that the Prophet has never had a favorite person since he was so old, how could he feel this lovelorn feeling!
The other four apprentices of the Prophet also received the image of the song. This piano piece did relieve their tension, but it touched the saddest thing in their hearts.
"It's possible that it's mind-affecting magic."
The Prophet reminded her apprentice in a loud voice. As soon as she finished speaking, a brand new portal suddenly appeared around her.
From the portal, a sinful demon who was slightly taller than her follower, Zeru, came out... He was also wearing a well-tailored suit.
"I am here to meet you under the order of His Royal Highness the Prince."
The sinful demon walked up to the prophet and knelt down, looked at the petite prophet and said.
"The core area of the Skeletal Lord's territory?"
The prophet had heard that the third prince had made some kind of covenant with the Duke of Bones, but she didn't expect that the covenant would be so strong.
That grumpy Skeletal Lord would allow strangers to step into the heart of his territory!
"His Royal Highness said that Mr. Gu Gu is a gentle person, and you can know it through her performance, so please don't be afraid."
gentle man...
The Prophet does not want to dwell too much on this issue.
"My apprentice has been affected by the spiritual magic of the Duke of Bones. Will he be able to touch it after he arrives in the human world?"
The Prophet found that there were already tears in the corners of the eyes of two apprentices beside him.
"Spiritual magic? No... This is the serenade played by Lord Bones, written by a human composer named Schubert. In addition, His Royal Highness specially instructed that the serenade is not the name of the song."
The sinful demon still dutifully explained to the prophet.
At this time, the Prophet didn't want to listen to Zenaskop's knowledge about music, she just wanted to get out of this restricted area of life as soon as possible.
But at this moment, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and the atmosphere of death around him suddenly became so strong that the prophet was a little suffocated.
Although the expression on her face can maintain calmness, her heartbeat has already started to speed up...
"Another group of troublesome... travelers."
Dark shadows stepped out from the walls of the castle, and a skeleton with the fire of soul burning in its pupils walked in front of them step by step in the air.
Everyone who was stared at by the leaping soul fire forgot to breathe. When the eyes of the skeleton king fell on the prophet, the prophet was the only one who dared to look at the great lich.
"My apprentice and I are only staying here temporarily and will not cause you any trouble, Duke of Bones." The Prophet performed a common etiquette in the devil world, and said in a tone that was neither humble nor overbearing.
"It's best not to shake your legs when you're trying to be brave, little girl." Bones reminded the Prophet with a piercing voice.
The Prophet immediately lowered his head to look at his legs, and found that he was not trembling at all. When he raised his head again, he heard a very ugly laugh from Mr. Bones.
"Zenas! Tell me, has this visit brought a new movie? There are already reviews on the caster forum, but I haven't even seen a sample?"
The figure of Skeletal Lord disappeared in front of the prophet, and appeared next to the sinful demon in the blink of an eye, looking up and down at Zenas with burning eye sockets.
"This is a serious violation of the treaty."
"Master Bones, Your Highness asked me to tell you that I hope you can forgive him for his busy schedule recently, and that this is the original spar that recorded the image of "The Faithful Dog Hachiko."
Zenas spread out his furry paws, and there was a crystal clear raw spar inside.
The original spar flew directly into the hands of Skeleton Lord, and the lich picked up the original spar with his thumb and index finger and looked at it.
"It's a little longer than the one played in the theater, and there are so-called 'trails' added? Very good, Zenas, you still have an hour and a half to send these demons away, otherwise when I finish writing the film review, they I can only stay here forever and become one of my loyal audience."
Lord Skull put away the original spar in his hand, and before the Prophet figured out what happened, the Grand Duke Lich disappeared before their eyes.
The appearance of Mr. Bones just now completely exceeded the prophet's expectations, as if he had obtained some treasures with joy and excitement.
What exactly could excite a lich who had lived for hundreds of years?
"Zenas, I would like to ask, is that primordial stone named Hachiko a document that records some forbidden magic?"
The prophet walked up to the sinful demon who was building a magic circle and asked.
"Forbidden magic? No..." Zenas has spent so long with humans, and his ability to communicate has improved to some extent. After thinking for a while, he gave the prophet an answer: "The original spar only records It's...a picture of an old man getting along with a hound."
"A picture of an old man getting along with a hound?"
The Prophet wondered again, that a human and a hound had no reason to make a mighty lich happy as if he were being reborn.
"I can't explain this to you. His Royal Highness will tell you everything when we arrive at Nolan." Zenas completed the teleportation array leading to the human world.
When he was about to lead these demons through the teleportation array as a guide, he noticed that there was a fellow of his own in the team, and the hair color of this fellow was very similar to his.
"Wait a minute." Zenas blocked the prophet who was about to pass through the teleportation array.
"What's wrong?"
The Prophet took a step back and stared at the sinful demon, thinking that the sinful demon was about to embarrass them, but Zenas pointed at the fellow at the end of the line.
"My compatriot needs to find a cloak to cover his appearance if he wants to go to Nolan, otherwise... there will be some big trouble." Zenas said.
