Zack gritted his teeth upon hearing this and glanced at his three companions lying dead on the ground and the unconscious prince.
What the hell was I supposed to say? Should I just tell this guy that we formed an alliance to deal with you, Dress?
If that's the case, what if this guy kills His Royal Highness the Prince in a rage?
"Master, you don't need to ask him so many questions. If you want to know the information in his mind, you need some memory-type magic, or you can just kill him and then use the spell of communicating with the dead to ask him." At this time, Grodes, who was standing aside, spoke.
Sometimes, the owner of a house really doesn't know the benefits of using magic! The spell "Talk with the Dead" allows you to ask the deceased five questions.
"Oh! Is there such a thing?"
"Of course, my master, all you have to do is cast a spell. The spell of talking with the dead is stored in the staff Chris gave you before." Grodes said.
Dress nodded after hearing this. He then took out the staff from Chris's hand, pointed it at the corpse underground, and cast the Speak with the Dead spell.
A strange green light shot out from the staff and hit a headless corpse on the ground.
Soon, an emerald green soul emerged from the surface of the corpse and appeared in front of Dress.
"He really came back to life?"
"Yes!" said the dead soul expressionlessly.
"Grudes can I ask questions now?"
"Yes!" said the dead soul expressionlessly.
"I'm not asking you, so shut up!"
"I don't have a mouth, I can't shut it up."
"Fuck, your sister."
"I don't have a sister, and I can't rely on my own sister."
"Is there something wrong with this spell?" Dress said, looking at the dead soul in front of him.
"There's no problem with the spell to speak with the dead," the dead soul said before disappearing, its headless body falling to the ground without any reaction.
A breeze blew by, and the scene suddenly became a little awkward.
"Master, once this magic is cast, no matter what question you ask, he will answer you as long as he knows it, so just ask the question directly and don't talk too much nonsense. Moreover, each corpse can only be cast with the dead conversation once." Grodes shook his head and spoke.
"It's my fault. You didn't tell me in advance. Next one." Dress shook his head helplessly, came to the second headless corpse, and used the spell of speaking with the dead again.
This time after his soul was awakened, Dress didn't waste any more words, but asked his questions directly.
"What is your purpose in coming to the Holy Silver Dragon Empire?"
"Escort His Royal Highness the Prince to marry the Seventh Princess of the Holy Silver Dragon Empire."
"Are you two forming an alliance? Are there any secret conditions?"
"To form an alliance and fight against Dress together."
“………” Dress.
Damn, you actually want to deal with me. Your Holy Silver Dragon Empire is giving you face.
There is also the Kingdom of Lufranca.
"How did you find out that it was my monster that attacked your country's treasury?" Dress asked.
"It was the Holy Silver Dragon Empire that discovered it and notified His Majesty the King."
"What are you going to do to me?"
"I don't know." After saying this, the undead summoned by the second corpse also disappeared.
Dress wordlessly came to the third corpse and cast the spell of speaking with the dead.
"Let me ask you, how are you going to deal with me?"
"I have no idea."
"Damn! Okay, get out of here." Dress said.
Well, it seems that these soldiers don’t know how the Kingdom of Luflant and the Holy Silver Dragon Empire want to deal with them.
So should we just kill this little prince, or kill that guy named Zack, and then find out their souls and ask them?
"Ask the rest of the questions, or I'll stay like this."
"Whether you want to disappear or not is none of my business."
"None of your business! I have three more questions."
"Then Mr. Zack, are you willing to answer my question? Or should I talk to you directly in this way?" Dress waved the magic wand in his hand and said.
"Just kill me! I will never betray the kingdom. I have nothing to say about you using the dead to communicate with me." Zack closed his eyes and spoke.
"Captain Zack doesn't know either. We ordinary soldiers don't know the details at all." said the undead on the side.
"Then who knows? Your prince?" Dress asked.
"I'm not sure. His Royal Highness the Prince may know or he may not know." said the Undead.
You are really dedicated!
"Do you know where there are smart pigeons?" Dress asked.
"We brought with us an ornamental pigeon bred by the royal family. It is very smart." The third undead disappeared after saying this.
Damn, it really exists. Upon hearing this, Dress stepped forward and rummaged through the group's luggage. He found a black cage inside the carriage with a little gray pigeon inside.
At this time, the little pigeon was flapping its wings and making cooing sounds. Well, it looks like I can save even 1,000 gold coins.
"Dress, what are you going to do with these two people?" Ginnar walked over and asked.
"I plan to release this Zack and let him bring the ransom to redeem their prince." Dress said.
The reason I came to the human world this time was to get a smarter pigeon. Now that I have it, there is no need to return to the city.
Moreover, the grand wedding in the city obviously could no longer be held, after all, one of the protagonists was still in his hands.
"Sir, please don't harm His Royal Highness. Only the Holy Dragon Emperor and the Prime Minister of the Holy Silver Dragon Empire, Malthus, know the specific circumstances of how we will deal with you. We in the Kingdom of Luflank, including His Majesty the King, do not know the specific circumstances." Zack said.
"Okay, listen. Your prince is in my hands now. If you want him to be safe and sound, you can exchange him for your country's mother crystal mine."
"Sir, His Majesty the King will never agree to this request. The mother crystal mine is the most important thing to our country. Please change it."
"Then it's 60,000 kilograms of magic crystals." Dress said.
"I will report this to my king." Zack gritted his teeth and spoke.
Damn it, where can we in the Kingdom of Luflank get 60,000 kilograms of magic energy crystals?
60,000 kilograms of magic energy crystals, but how many years of output does the mother crystal mine produce?
You have looted all the previous stock.
"Once you have prepared the ransom, come find me in the North!"
Dress smiled, called the red dragon Grodus to change back to its original form, and then left with the unconscious little prince.
What a pity, Her Royal Highness the Princess’s groom is missing.
