Chapter 2018: Selection Competition (8)
Nevertheless, a large number of deaths still occurred among the undead who were transported back to the Howling Abyss, and Mingye, who was at the center of the explosion, was the most seriously injured. That divine power had already invaded his body; if not for his father, the Ancestor of the Undead, suppressing it himself, it was feared that Mingye would have already been
completely dead.
“Father… has already told me, I’ll be careful.” Mingye said.
“This time, I came because my father asked me to consult Mentor Nock. If only half of the resurrection process was done, what would be the eect?” Mingye frowned slightly. What happened in the Dragon Cemetery was a nightmare for him. Perhaps because of the explosion, he was somewhat confused about what exactly happened that day.
“What step of the resurrection process had Your Highness reached in the Dragon Cemetery?” Nock asked.
“The nal step.” Mingye vaguely remembered that at the end of the resurrection process, he had seen the bones of the dragons climbing out of the ground. At least in a moment, those bones should have been completely resurrected.
“Well, I believe that Your Highness’ resurrection should have been successful.” Nock smilingly said. Mingye, however, couldn’t set his mind at rest.
“But I couldn’t sense the spirits of those bone dragons.”
The purebred undead, after they successfully resurrected the dead, would have a certain spiritual connection with the ones they had resurrected, so that they could control the other side accordingly. But he couldn’t perceive the spirits of those bone dragons.
“This…” Nock became a little confused as well.
According to theory, since the resurrection process passed through its nal step, the bones should have been fully resurrected, but how come Mingye could not feel their spirits?
“Could it be that the explosion destroyed them again?” It took Mingye a long time to tell what he had been guessing. The explosion aected all the undead in the Hidden Dragon Continent. Although the number of the bone dragons in the Dragon Cemetery was large, it was dicult to resist such a strong impact, let alone that the divine power mixed in the explosion was the nemesis of the undead beings. The Ancestor of the Undead was even forced by that power to use a death teleportation to send Mingye, together with the other undead, back to the Howling Abyss in an instant. It could be imagined how powerful the destructive force of that explosion was.
“Maybe.” Nock could only nd such an answer. If the bone dragons were still alive, it was impossible for Mingye to not perceive their spirits. Only when they died would Mingye feel nothing. Mingye was somewhat depressed. This time, his father gave him the task, but he failed to do it, which made him feel very guilty. When Nock saw that Mingye’s expression was very bad, he began to say:
“My Lord plans to send troops to Hidden Dragon Continent again to check things out. Once they investigate the matter, it will then become clear. Your Highness should not worry too much.”
The undead had spent too much eort on Hidden Dragon Continent, so it was impossible for them to give up just like that. The Ancestor of the Undead was ready to send another army of the undead to Hidden Dragon Continent for a visit. First, they needed to contact Long Yan again to continue their cooperation. Second, the bone dragons in the Dragon Cemetery had a great attraction for the undead. Without seeing them with his own eyes, the
Ancestor of the Undead would never give up. Mingye nodded.
“The soldiers selected by father have already boarded the ship and gone to Hidden Dragon Continent. I believe there will be news soon.” Mingye and Nock had no idea that the bone ship of the search team they expected to bring news soon had long been wrecked by some great master who was going to look for a person in the Howling Abyss. The undead in the whole ship had already sunk to the bottom of the sea and were now the food of shes.
