Cultural Invasion In Different World-Chapter 1020

1020 Chapter 1444, Old Woman

Of course, thousand-face was not frightened by the little girl’s threat. He used three sticky magic arrows to pin her to the ground.

“Fuya!”

She struggled to break free from thousand-face’s arrows, but it was meaningless... the guardian of the ruins was weaker than thousand-face had imagined.

“Let’s go and take a look.” 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

Thousand-face ignored the girl and brought Fuya to the woman floating in the air.

Just as thousand-face was about to carefully examine the middle-aged woman, the moment she took a step forward, the magic power surrounding the woman’s body suddenly disappeared, her body also lost the protection of magic power and fell to the ground. free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

At that moment, thousand faces once again nocked an arrow on the bowstring. She stared at the woman who was lying on the ground, trying to figure out what she was going to do when she suddenly woke up.

This wait lasted for a few minutes, but the middle-aged woman who was lying on the ground did not react at all.

Thousand Faces’ears perked up slightly. She was trying to catch the sound of the woman’s heartbeat.

However, there was no heartbeat. Thousand-face did not hear a single heartbeat from the woman.

“A dead person?”

Thousand-face glanced at Fuya who was tugging at the corner of her clothes behind him. Fuya shook her head slightly to show that she did not understand what was going on.

Another minute passed. Thousand-face slowly walked towards the middle-aged woman who was lying on the ground. The arrows were always aimed at her head, but until thousand-face came to her side, the woman did not react at all.

Thousand-face half-knelt down and touched the middle-aged woman’s neck with his hand.

There was no pulse, and there was no heartbeat. From a physiological point of view, it could be attributed to death.

But just by touching her skin, thousand-face was sure that this person should have been alive a second ago.

There were no signs of decay on this body.

“Don’t touch her!”The girl who looked like a prophet shouted at thousand-face uncontrollably.

“Your mother is dead?”Thousand-face asked her.

She gritted her teeth and didn’t seem to know how to answer thousand-face. The cunning aura from this dark elf made her realize that thousand-face could analyze a lot of information from her words.

“It seems like there’s still something to hide. I guess this body is just a vessel for the sublimators’magical machinery.”

Thousand Faces opened the text message and sent what happened here to Joshua.

‘The sublimators are really good at building solid bodies that can make things look real. They’re just magical puppets that look and feel like humans... in order to rule out the possibility of fake death, you should bring this body to the lord skeleton to have a look.’

Joshua did not have much experience in autopsies. Among the people that he knew... perhaps only the skeleton duke’s expertise could match up to this.

‘I’ll bring it over as soon as possible.’

Thousand Face picked up the middle-aged woman who was lying on the ground and looked around again.

As the core of Arnold, there were still many places that could be explored, but thousand face was not sure if this body would rot after a long time.

“Your Highness Fuya, we can go back now,”thousand-face said to Fuya.

Fuya had been in a state of fear ever since she entered this place. Thousand-face didn’t understand what Fuya was afraid of, but that was also the reason why she didn’t want to stay here any longer.

As for that girl... she would come and interrogate her again in the future.

..

Thousand-face’s efficiency in carrying out the mission was impeccable. After pacifying Fuya, she carried this body and headed to the gloomy forest.

Because Joshua had informed the skeletal lord in advance, thousand-face did not meet any terrifying undead on the way and arrived at the entrance of the skeletal lord’s castle smoothly.

The castle door slowly opened. As soon as thousand-face entered the door, he heard an excited symphony orchestra playing. It sounded like the skeletal lord’s orchestra was busy rehearsing some new song.

Thousand faces carried the body to the center of the Hall of the castle, and the music suddenly stopped.

“This guy, Jose, has brought me another trouble!”

The voice of the skeleton duke echoed throughout the castle. A skeleton went through the wall and came into the hall.

The muscles on thousand faces’face stiffened when he saw the skeleton duke. Among the four dukes of the demon world... except for the black dragon Archduke, the skeleton archduke was the one that thousand faces felt the most dangerous.

“The skeleton duke.”Thousand-face could clearly feel... a pressure from his soul when he faced the skeleton duke directly.

“Put it on the table directly. I don’t have time to waste on a dead body now.”

The skeleton duke waved his slender bones gently, and a long table appeared in front of thousand-face.

Jose had given him a score called “1812 Overture”yesterday.

After reading the sheet of music, the skeleton Duke had been practicing with his own orchestra until today.

Thousand Faces had chosen an inappropriate time to visit the dark forest. If it had been any other living creature... it would have been endowed with the attribute of immortality by now.

She did not dare to make any unnecessary movements in front of the skeleton duke. She obediently placed the female body on the long table.

The skeleton duke floated in the air and sized up the female.

“This body is still alive.”The soul fire in the eye sockets of the skeleton duke was dancing. The impatience in his tone gradually disappeared. She was now a little interested in this body.

“Her heart has stopped beating for almost an hour.”Thousand faces reported the condition of this body to the skeleton duke in a low voice.

“Are you questioning my conclusion?”

“I don’t dare.”

The Lord skeleton snorted coldly and directly approached the body of the middle-aged woman. An unknown undead magic hovered over the Lord Skeleton’s bone finger. Then, the Lord Skeleton’s finger penetrated into the body of the woman.

“A human body. Tell Jose that this guy’s body is not made, but born from the womb,”the lord skeleton said to thousand faces.

Before thousand face came, Joshua had already told the skeleton duke some information that he wanted to know.

The skeleton duke carefully searched for a while again, and then let out a surprised voice.

“Where did you find this old woman?”The Skeleton Duke asked.

Old Woman..

Thousand face remembered that the skeleton duke should be almost a hundred years old. Although her age was several times that of the skeleton duke, with the age of a human... the skeleton duke could call her an ‘old woman’..

“The core area of Arnold.”Thousand Face said.

“The core... there are so many strange places in the demon world. This guy has a lot of traces of modified inscriptions in her body. Her technique is very superb... she used this method to extend her life. Her actual age might be more than three hundred years old, or even longer.”Skeleton Duke said.

“Duke, can you wake her up?”Thousand Face asked the question that he was most concerned about.

“This body is just an empty shell. Her soul has disappeared. According to human understanding, she is indeed dead, but this body shows no signs of decay.”The Skeleton Duke thought for a while and said, “Leave this thing with me for now. I might be able to find out where her soul went.”

Thousand-face could not disobey the order of the skeleton duke. He could only leave this body in the castle of the skeleton duke for the time being.
