Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 423 - 389, The Bones of Priest_2

Chapter 423: Chapter 389, The Bones of Priest_2

(Description: A corpse nurturing coffin made entirely of white jade stone, nourishing the souls of dark creatures and creatures of the eternal night.)

Nice piece, a crystal clear coffin.

If I had time-traveled to ancient Hua Xia.

This kind of coffin surely would only be available for burials of royal family members.

Its appearance alone is already quite enticing.

Within the domain.

Rolana and Little You are the ones using the corpse nurturing coffin.

Little You doesn’t use it frequently, always in a state of it being optional.

While Rolana, with her high status in the eternal night, may have a coffin that is not inferior to this.

We’ll see who needs it when the time comes, and give it to them.

Anyway, I don’t need it.

Having finished examining all the equipment.

The small bandit brothers have also finished cleaning up the battlefield.

Including the injured, twelve people were escorted, with bits and pieces of spoils of war, riding on a bone dragon, returning to Gray Bear Bandit Camp.

There are still eleven people left with Fang Hao.

They dug out Eric from the stone coffin and left this ruined city directly.

Heading towards Lyss City.

…

The night grows thicker.

Fang Hao and others, in their roadside pitched tent.

The rolling iron pot is emitting steam, spreading the aroma of the hot pot.

Eric, who had been unconscious for a day, sniffed.

Then, he groggily opened his eyes.

“Ah! It hurts.” The first thing he said when he opened his eyes, Eric covered his wound and let out a low growl.

Then he remembered the previous battle.

His face was panic-stricken, as he quickly surveyed the situation around him.

When he realized that Fang Hao and the others were sitting around the fire looking at him, his expression eased considerably.

He was still alive, and so was everyone else.

Staggering to his feet, he walked over to the fire.

At this moment, he also noticed that Fang Hao’s team was noticeably fewer.

Many people still had blood stains, and no spoils were brought out.

Sitting by the fire, Eric looked a little depressed.

“Mr Fang Hao, thank you for saving me, I didn’t realize the Dragon Scale Mercenary Group would do this, putting everyone in danger.”

He can imagine, under that number of enemies’ attack, taking him out while he was unconscious.

Must have been a difficult thing to do.

If the roles reversed, he would probably have abandoned Fang Hao and fled with his team.

At most, he would give some money to the man’s family back in the city out of guilt.

And it was him who introduced Fang Hao to this mission.

Not only did Fang Hao not blame him, but he also saved him.

Fang Hao said: “First eat, and we’ll talk about the rest when we get back. The Dragon Scale Mercenary Group obviously took us for fools, we can’t let this slide.”

With that one sentence, Fang Hao ignited the flame of anger in Eric’s heart.

He roared in a loud voice: “I’m going to the City Lord’s house to complain about them, they have killed so many people in this fight, I don’t believe that no one can deal with them.”

He winced as the movement tugged at his wounds.

The hotpot is ready, and Fang Hao calls everyone to eat.

As he ate, Eric asked again, “By the way, what’s that place, that cemetery, and where are the Dragon Scale mercenaries?”

His memory was still stuck in the stage of resting from serious injury.

After being knocked out by Anjia, the fat man had been sleeping until now.

“That is the church graveyard. The tombstones should all belong to the church’s people. The Dragon Scale Mercenary Group brought us here, probably intending never to let us return alive.” Fang Hao answered.

Previously, Fang Hao thought that either the Dragon Scale Mercenary Group had poor preparations or underestimated the enemy’s numbers, causing the loss of the human mercenary group.

Now he thinks, perhaps the extermination of the human mercenary group was part of the Dragon Scale Mercenary Group’s plan.

After all, the church still has significant influence.

“To excavate the bones of ‘the Grand Priest’.

If done discreetly, it’s fine, but if this gets out, the Dragon Scale Mercenary Group can’t shoulder the blame.

Only if all the others die, will the secret be kept secure.

That’s why the Dragon Scale Mercenary Group didn’t recruit through the mission hall, but privately invited a few medium and small mercenary groups instead.

“The church? They have big guts, they’re downright crazy.” Eric cursed while stuffing his mouth with food.

“I reckon more might have escaped. We will see. If someone reports this, we’d better avoid this mess, after all, we were involved in this operation too.” Fang Hao continued.

“You’re right, we should go back and see how things are,” Eric agreed, nodding his head.

After dinner, they chatted around the bonfire for a while longer.

Then they each returned to their places to rest, awaiting dawn to return to Lyss City.

…

Fang Hao went back to his tent and laid out the skin blanket on the floor.

About half an hour later,

Anjia, who had been on night watch duty, crawled into the tent.

As soon as she entered, she took off her clothes.

Clad only in a flimsy undergarment, she went directly into Fang Hao’s arms.

She casually wrapped her arms around Fang Hao and whispered, “Do you really believe that fat guy could have slept for so long? The impact of the thunderbolt was enough to cause the whole ground to collapse, yet he didn’t wake up. Conveniently, he woke up when we made camp to eat.”

“Did you notice something?” Fang Hao lay flat on his back, one arm around Anjia.

“Not really, I just doubt how he could possibly sleep so long, then arbitrarily wake up here afterwards.” Anjia shared her suspicion after thinking it through.

Fang Hao thought Anjia’s doubt was quite reasonable.

If it was true, then Eric was not as simple-minded as imagined.

He knew when to wake up, and when to pretend to be asleep.

Considering the possible advantages and disadvantages of Eric’s presence, Fang Hao continued, “It’s not a big problem. Even if he woke up, it was inside the stone coffin. As long as he didn’t see the Bone Dragon, it should be fine. Even if he tells, it’s not a problem since he didn’t derive any benefit from us.”

The biggest secret of this operation was the Bone Dragon.

When Fang Hao commanded the Bone Dragon into battle, Eric had just fainted. He couldn’t possibly wake up that soon.

The battles that followed he was hidden inside the stone coffin, even if he woke up it was inside, he couldn’t discover anything.

Moreover, compared to the Dragon Scale Mercenary Group’s massacre of nearly a thousand people this time, his own matters were insignificant.

It’s hard to draw attention.

“Alright, I’ll take your word for it.” Anjia snuggled further into his arms, blinked, and whispered, “It’s still early. Do you want to play for a while?”

Fang Hao looked at her teasingly, understanding her meaning.

“Is that okay? It’s late and we’re both tired from today’s events.”

Anjia’s eyes were twinkling, “I’m not tired, and you only used two magic spells. So, why are you tired?

After saying so, she didn’t wait for Fang Hao and took the initiative herself.

…

The Nightstone emitted a faint glow.

Anjia’s figure was completely exposed in the air.

Her wheat-colored skin was smooth and firm, her body sporty and well-proportioned.

It exuded youthful vitality.

By the soft, gentle light, her upright silhouette gently swayed with the light.

“I was raised by an old orc who wanted to find a village willing to accept me, where he could spend his old age. However, after a long search, no one was willing to take me in.”

Anjia suddenly spoke, her moving waist gradually slowing down.

She looked into Fang Hao’s eyes and felt his warmth.

It was Fang Hao’s first time hearing Anjia share her past.

The Fighting Tooth Clan amongst the Beast Clan was the type fond of fighting.

Who would have thought that as a child, she didn’t even have a village.

“What happened after that?” Fang Hao continued asking.

“After that, we stopped searching for villages and built a house ourselves. He taught me hunting and combat until the year I turned 15 when I became a hero, and he passed away.” Anjia calmly narrated.

The atmosphere within the tent suddenly sank.

Fang Hao could distinctly feel Anjia’s emotions.

This outgoing and thoughtless girl was revealing her emotional side for the first time.

Before Fang Hao could comfort her, Anjia continued, “The old orc told me to go west, where there were human cities. As long as I saved enough money, I could buy a house there and live. The idea of gambling appealed to me as a quick way to raise funds, and so, I started to learn how to gamble.”

Pfft!!

At this point, Anjia suddenly laughed, “Then, I lost all the money I saved along the way. I even lost my luggage. It turns out, I’m really not suited to gamble. In the ‘Manim’ market, I saw a human who seemed easy to bully. I borrowed 40 Warfire coins from him but ended up losing myself.” freewёbnoνel.com

Accompanied by light panting, Anjia went on with her story.
