Chapter 69 The Secret of the Sewer
In the Alchemy City, two drow elves followed the Withered Rose carefully and held a gorgeous umbrella for her.
They need to pay attention to the pace of the withering roses at all times. They cannot be too fast, too slow, and they cannot let any sunlight fall on the queen.
This little bit of sunlight could not cause any harm to a legendary Undead Queen, but as long as the Withered Rose frowned, the two of them would become materials for creating undead.
In the Underdark, everyone knew how cruel Her Majesty the Queen was. She was so indifferent to any living being and used them only as tools.
Once this tool is no longer useful, it will naturally be thrown away.
Withering Rose was accompanied by two serious-looking administrators, who were sent by the Alchemist Council to monitor Withering Rose. The sudden visit of this famous Undead Queen from the Underdark made everyone in the Alchemy City feel scalp tingling.
The two administrators were unlucky. Even though the Withered Rose completely ignored their existence, just standing next to her made fear invade their bodies like a virus.
This is the true power of a lich. As long as one does not deliberately restrain one's power, just a little bit of the rich dark magic is enough to contaminate everything around him.
The Withered Rose naturally had no intention of caring about a few humans. She wandered around the Alchemy City casually, occasionally buying some alchemical materials without asking the price.
Three of the bottles contained living mercury solution, which she prepared as a gift for Amber.
Although I don’t know how the dead would fall in love, but based on their personalities, it should be a good idea to give them expensive gifts.
At this time, Gareth and his wife should have met at the third party's house. I don't know if they can hold back. If they start fighting, it will probably be trouble again.
Withered Rose originally wanted to witness the melodramatic love between the undead and see if she could get some reference from it, but the people from the Alchemy City were always following her, and Withered Rose didn't want to expose the private affairs of the undead couple to others.
Therefore, Withered Rose could only go out alone and pretend to go shopping, but in fact she was trying to attract the attention of the Alchemy City.
However, this is only one of the purposes.
Amber asked her to help investigate the secret of the sewer, and Withered Rose was also very interested in the secret of this alchemy city that was kept secret.
Although she was wandering around seemingly aimlessly, in fact, without realizing it, Withered Rose had already walked to the vicinity of a sewer entrance.
Withered Rose carefully observed the two administrators who were responsible for "accompanying" her. When they approached the sewer entrance, the two men showed obvious expressions of disgust, but they were not very vigilant or panicked.
The disgust was probably due to the disgusting stench that was everywhere, but there was no vigilance or panic, which seemed to indicate that these two people knew nothing about the secrets of the sewer.
"If that's the case, then you can be a little bolder."
Withered Rose pretended to know nothing and walked towards the sewer entrance. The closer she got, the stronger the stench became. The two administrators could not help but cover their noses.
Seeing that Withered Rose was about to move forward, one of the administrators quickly said, "Your Majesty, the area ahead has been designated as a restricted area due to the leakage of alchemical waste. It has not been cleaned up in time, so it is full of snakes, insects, rats and ants. It is not very suitable for visiting. I suggest going in another direction. There are several good enchanting equipment shops over there."
Withered Rose pretended to be curious and said, "Alchemical waste leaked? It seems to be a serious accident. Has the Alchemy City not dealt with it yet?"
The two administrators were a little embarrassed, but they really didn't know what the problem was, so they could only stammer and change the subject. They didn't notice that Withered Rose took a few steps towards the sewer entrance full of foul-smelling sewage, nor did they notice that her eyes swept across the mosquitoes flying in the sky.
With just one glance, hundreds of small insects died and were transformed into controllable undead puppets in an instant.
This is the legendary boon of the Withered Rose - the Death Gaze.
As long as a creature is locked by her soul fire, she can transform it into an undead without any other action. The time required for this transformation process varies depending on the strength of the individual creature's vitality.
Even a high-ranking paladin like Fanxing would turn into an undead within a few minutes if he was not able to detect it in time. For an insignificant little bug like this, the transformation could be completed in the blink of an eye.
"Well, it looks like there really isn't much to see here, let's go in another direction."
Withered Rose just turned and left without arousing any suspicion from the two governors. Even the two maids beside Withered Rose did not notice their queen's little action.
When they left, the insects that had been transformed into undead quickly crawled into the sewers.
Thanks to the increasingly poor sanitary environment in the Alchemy City, rats and insects can be seen everywhere. As Withered Rose walked along the way, thousands of snakes, insects, rats and ants were silently transformed into undead by her. They began to explore the sewers and soon found out the map of the sewers for Withered Rose.
Withered Rose used the excuse of being bored with strolling around and returned to the silver carriage that looked like a small palace, and then began to draw a map of the sewer.
In just one day, Withered Rose had explored most of the sewers of the Alchemy City.
The Withered Rose pieced together the fragments of the map into a unique pattern.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Why does it look like some alchemical magic circle?"
Withered Rose was not very good at alchemy and could only barely see a few traces, so she directly sent the map fragments to Amber.
[Dead Rose: Look at the sewer map I drew. It looks like some kind of alchemical magic circle.]
At the castle, Amber was removing the bones from Erha's body.
After much consideration, the half-elf ranger decided to choose a skeleton as his reincarnation form. It was not because he did not like growing flesh, but it was very expensive for the undead to keep their flesh alive. They would either rot or become mummies, and neither of these two forms looked as good as a skeleton.
As a half-elf, between the two options of very ugly and generally ugly, Erha chose the generally ugly skeleton form.
Anyway, as undead with independent consciousness, skeletons are not much different from zombies. Whether they can be advanced depends on luck and effort. Amber will try to give Erha more innate spells during the transformation process, such as basic skeleton summoning, cold touch, etc., so that he has a certain combat power after reincarnation.
As the ribs were being removed, the Codex of the Undead began to vibrate, and Amberxiu had to summon the wizard's hand to open the Codex of the Undead.
Poor Erha could only lie on the operating table, keeping his heart open in embarrassment.
When Amber saw the sewer map sent by the Withered Rose, he was so excited that he broke the bones in his hands.
Amber Xiu didn't have time to reconnect Erha's bones, and quickly replied to Withered Rose: [This is not an alchemical magic circle, this is a modified prayer magic circle. These lunatics are really creating gods! ]
