"Death curse?"

"Erosion of the Underworld?"

"Or is it a product of a wizard's experiment?"

Xu Xi sat cross-legged on the back of the bone bird, looking down at the lonely figure from above.

It is the rainy season now.

The air is extremely humid.

Sticky and sultry, it forms a light layer of mist on the surface of all living things.

But the figure squatting beside the tombstone was not affected at all. His upper body was covered with thick and heavy armor, and the iron armor covered all ten fingers of both hands. His lower body was covered with severely worn leg armor covered with spots of mud.

The hair was long gone, corroded by the breath of death.

The only thing that can be proven.

Proof that the girl was once a human being.

There were only the protruding white bones on the face and the emerald green eyes.

Those eyes blinked in the twilight, like a glass lamp lit deep in a dark room, standing out particularly in the world shrouded in death.

The iris is not uniformly green.

Instead, it starts from dark green at the outer edge and gradually changes to bright light blue towards the pupil.

Like a gem, with crystal reflections.

Like green water, with ripples.

That pair of eyes revealed an indescribable brightness.

It is something that has not been seen for a long time. It is the hope of the living for tomorrow, but at the same time, there is also obvious confusion and loneliness hidden deep inside.

"Father, Mother..."

Infinite longing is hidden in the empty voice.

That face was so terrifying that once it was revealed, it would be mistaken for that of an undead monster, telling the wind on the top of the mountain about my longing.

It’s getting dark.

The already dim world became even darker.

Xu Xi's eyes moved downward.

Seeing the half-undead girl hero, he trembled again, feeling timid and uneasy because of the coming darkness.

The posture seemed somewhat pitiful, but the girl did not leave. Instead, she curled up further and leaned her back against her parents' tombstone.

It was dark and scary.

The mountain is high and eerie.

But because I have my parents behind me, I am no longer afraid.

"Father, Mother, I'm back..."

The skull permeated the face, rubbing the fleshless teeth, and spoke with a voice of peace and joy.

The soul fire deep inside was burning even more fiercely.

And then.

Under Xu Xi's secret observation, the undead girl fell into a deep sleep, squatting with her knees hugged, her back against the tombstone, sleeping in a sweet posture on the top of the nameless mountain.

Despite the heavy armor, the interior of the body is not visible.

But he felt.

There is most likely a skeleton inside.

"Has the level of undeadization reached this deep..."

"No wonder he would put on armor and approach ordinary people as a hero."

"It's not that I don't want to be aboveboard, but I simply can't do it."

Maybe he shook his head.

The just behavior of the "brave man" and his tragic experience form a tragic conflict and contrast.

It is hard to imagine what the "brave man" had gone through to end up in this strange situation where he was neither alive nor dead.

Xu Xi was somewhat curious about the "brave man" in this state.

He thinks.

This peculiar life form will be helpful in my study of death.

"Let's observe it for a few more days to make sure it's not a trap or an experiment by other wizards."

"Once everything is stable, we will conduct close contact and observation."

Looking at the undead girl in armor.

Xu Xi nodded slightly.

If he could figure out something from this, then the goal of his simulation would have been largely accomplished ahead of schedule.

"But then again, it's weird enough that a hero is afraid of the dark."

"As an undead creature, the undead are synonymous with darkness and gloom. It's a bit... "

Xu was hesitant.

It can only be attributed to the influence of the lingering human nature.

…

[You discovered the truth about the "brave man"]

[Pale bones, only flesh and blood left, death and life coexist in the same body]

[You originally thought that you would need to be at least a three-ring wizard to get access to materials that allow life and death to coexist, but a brave man suddenly appeared, giving you hope that you can study with just one ring.]

[While lamenting the twists and turns of the hero's fate, you decide to study the hero's life form]

[For safety reasons, you did not meet the hero immediately]

[Instead, he cleared the undead and collected the required soul fire while observing the undead girl's movements from a distance to see if there was anything wrong.]

【Time passes silently】

[From your observation, the "hero" has a very regular schedule, cycling between saving people and resting, and killing the undead almost non-stop.]

[However, the power of the "brave man" is ultimately limited]

[Faced with powerful undead creatures or large-scale waves of the undead, a lone girl cannot win with only her half-undead power.]

The brave man's crusade failed.

A true hero will lose to a powerful demon king.

The fake hero can't even defeat slightly stronger undead.

"Everyone, hide quickly."

Make a sound and let the villagers hide.

In the rain, the undead girl, wearing strong armor and holding a holy sword, chopped down the huge minotaur skeleton warrior alone.

Bang——

The holy sword glowed brightly and collided with the minotaur skeleton's bone axe, making a sharp sound.

Then continue.

The "brave man" was struck and sent flying.

The minotaur is extremely powerful, and the soul fire in its head emits an extremely strong glow.

He raised the axe and chopped it down, causing a howling wind.

It even smashed the "hero" into pieces of bones.

Xu Xi's guess was correct. Inside the heavy armor was indeed a complete human skeleton, without a trace of flesh and blood.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!

Gululu——

Gululu——

Skulls, hand bones, and leg bones were scattered in the puddle.

Pulled by the soul fire, the trilling stirred up water ripples, trying to complete the reorganization, trying to stand up again and fight the minotaur.

Again and again.

Fail in struggle, struggle in failure.

"I won't let you... pass... This is the only thing I can do for my father and mother..."

The sound keeps on vibrating.

But how could a mere imposter, not even a counterfeit, be able to unleash incredible power in desperate situations like the heroes in the story?

That is impossible and cannot be done.

“Bang!!!”

Trembling and afraid, he picked up the sword again, but was chopped away by the Minotaur again.

This time.

The soul fire of the undead girl is almost extinguished.

The helmet that covered his head and hid his ugly face was also blown off by the violent impact, rolling in several circles of sticky mud.

Subconsciously, the girl wanted to find the helmet again and cover her face.

Avoid being seen.

But it seems she no longer has that chance.

The wind from the axe was chilling, causing the soul fire to ache before it even touched it.

Will I really die this time?

Such a thought flashed through her mind.

But at this moment, thunder fell from the sky, entwined with a fire snake, and burst into a surging tornado of thunder and fire, instantly submerging the Minotaur Skeleton.

First ring of witchcraft: attracting thunder.

One Ring Witchcraft: Fire Serpent.

The two high-energy elemental spells consume a huge amount of energy for the wizard, but the visitor doesn't seem to care about it.

He stretched out his hand, warm and powerful, and pulled up the undead girl without a helmet.

"My name is Xu Xi, and I'm a wizard."

He said.
