Foreign Land Reclamation By a Vegetable-growing Skeleton Chapter 1765 - 1326 Someone Devours Their Souls
"These lines sound familiar, like I’ve heard them sowhere before?" After saying this, Negris muttered softly, but everyone was too busy to pay attention as they rushed forward, for a fight had broken out over there.
Yennefer was fighting with the Dragon-Man who had just sat up. As they fought, Yennefer shouted, "Uncle Baburu, Uncle Baburu, it’s , it’s , stop fighting, it’s , Yennefer."
"Baburu? Yennefer? Who is Baburu? The na sounds familiar... Am I Baburu?" The Dragon-Man mumbled as he fought, seemingly recalling sothing, and his movents grew slower.
By the ti Anthony and the others arrived, the fight had already stopped. Baburu furrowed his brow, looking at Yennefer with confusion, then looked at Anthony and the others, hesitantly asking, "Yennefer? Are you Yennefer from the Goodri Family?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Uncle Baburu, do you rember ? It’s , Yennefer. When I was a child, I even threw stones at the latrine of your house," Yennefer said excitedly.
Baburu glared with wide eyes, angrily saying, "I rember now, it was you, you little lizard egg, I’ll beat you to death!"
Then the two Dragon-n started fighting again.
Anthony and the others exchanged glances but didn’t interfere. After all, throwing stones at soone’s latrine was a reason to get beaten.
Only Ange tilted his head, his scales surging as he transford a Dragon God’s head, then said, "They, bloodline resonance."
"What? The fight is fake, it’s the bloodline resonance that’s real? But he’s already dead, can a dead Dragon-Man have bloodline resonance?" Negris asked in shock.
Ange shook his head and retracted the Dragon God Transformation.
A dead Dragon-Man evidently cannot have bloodline resonance. Unable to resonate, Baburu stopped in surprise, "What... what’s wrong with ? My body feels strange."
Yennefer was also puzzled, why did Uncle Baburu seem to have amnesia? She couldn’t help but look to Negris and the others for help.
Anthony said, "It’s like this when you first wake from sleep, tell it so familiar things to awaken its mory."
Undead creatures have a period of confusion after a long slumber, unable to rember many things; talking about familiar subjects can awaken most mories.
Yennefer quickly said, "Uncle Baburu, have you forgotten? Do you rember what this place is? Do you rember how you got in here? This is the Ancestor’s Tomb? You went into the Sleeping Tombstone. You’re already dead, do you rember?"
"That day, you took out all your treasured wine and drank it all in one go, saying since you’re going to die anyway, you wouldn’t leave it for us little lizard eggs. You drank too much, when we put you down, you even peed in the pit..."
Before Yennefer could finish, Baburu interrupted, "Stop talking, I rember now. I drank too much, you all put in the Sleeping Tombstone, I’m... dead, I fell in, and saw so many people, they were all waving at ... I found a spot near your dad to lie down, all old acquaintances..."
Baburu’s tone began to sound dejected halfway through, no one would be happy to realize they are dead after waking up from being drunk.
"Uncle Baburu, have you been asleep up until now? Did you never wake up during that ti?" Yennefer asked.
Baburu shook his head, "I don’t rember. How did you get in here? Are you going to die too?"
Yennefer said, "No, I ca with..."
Before he could finish, Anthony interrupted him: "Hello, Lord Baburu, you may call Anthony, it’s a pleasure to et you. During your slumber, the Dragon Clan was affected by the Deceit Tree War, and they abandoned the Ancestor’s Tomb; even if they were to die too, they could not co here."
"What? You abandoned the Ancestor’s Tomb? You little lizard egg! You disgrace our Dragon Clan, disgrace! Go, go wake your dad up and see if he doesn’t beat you!" Baburu, who wasn’t angered even upon realizing his death monts ago, now exploded into fury, raising his hand as if to strike.
"Oh." Yennefer suddenly rembered her father, hurriedly ran over with a glimr of hope, and started shaking her father’s corpse.
Leaving Baburu and Anthony looking at each other, finally rembering to ask, "Who are you all?"
"I am the Dragon God’s spokesperson..." Anthony was interrupted again.
"How could the Dragon God choose a human... Star Descendant? Are you a Star Descendant? How could the Dragon God choose a Star Descendant as a spokesperson?" Baburu asked warily.
Anthony secretly criticized: Why are these Dragon-n so paranoid?
For soone like him, a godman, the most troubleso are those paranoid individuals. Though deceiving them isn’t hard, it’s tedious and requires considerable effort. However, if you find the right point of entry, the more paranoid they are, the more firmly they are deceived; even if others tell them they’ve been tricked, they won’t believe it.
He said aloud, "Because when the Dragon God was dying, only we were by its side. I am human, it is a Bronze Dragon, a new dragon breed cultivated by the Dragon God in the Boundless Space Hole. The Star Descendant body was exchanged for when we ca here."
"What? The Dragon God is dead? How can the Dragon God die? Impossible," was Baburu’s first reaction, questioning how the Dragon God could die.
To all believers, gods are immortal. A god dying signifies the collapse of faith. However, Baburu, being a Dragonkin and not a believer, viewed the Dragon God as an ancestor; an ancestor dying was not impossible. After two shouts, he internally accepted the fact.
In truth, the Dragon Clan had been preparing for the Dragon God’s death for a long ti. With the bloodline resonance, there is an inexplicable sense of the Dragon God’s fate.
Seeing Baburu fall silent, Anthony continued, "Not only did the Dragon Clan abandon the Ancestor’s Tomb, but they also contracted Black Scale Disease. Do you know what Black Scale Disease is?"
Baburu shook his head, "I don’t know, I got drunk before coming in, saw them waving at , probably got so drunk I hallucinated, then fell asleep and woke up to see you all."
"So you don’t even know why all the souls disappeared?" Anthony asked.
Baburu was taken aback, "All the souls disappeared? What do you an?"
"You, able to transform into an Undead, that’s your current state, Undead. I’ve checked, all corpses’ soul auras are gone, only you still have a soul left," Anthony said.
"Why... why is that? Only ?" Baburu felt his scales stand on end, a chill creeping in.
Anthony said, "The greatest possibility is that soone has absorbed their breath of death."
Should this be true, the problem would be grave. Each Dragon-Man possessed a First-Order Dragon God’s strength with their Dragon Soul. Out of millions or tens of millions of Dragon-n, what level of Undead creature could be bred from their Dragon Souls?
