Chapter 86 Curiosity Killed the Cat

After resting for a night, Luo Chen and his companion successfully met up with the short man at the city wall.

At this moment, several people were found gathered around the short man.

One of the women in the group, wearing a black silk veil, drew considerable attention.

Luo Chen recognized her at a glance as Asha's adopted daughter, the Dark King Wen Tai, from the original story!

Besides the graceful woman wearing black silk veils, there was also a pair of brothers who stayed by her side the whole time; they seemed to be her attendants.

Once everyone was assembled, the short man led the main force out of the outer city wall...

........................

As Luo Chen walked along, he caught a glimpse of Asha's outfit out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but be amazed by it!

Despite the cold weather, she was still wearing a silk robe embroidered with colorful peacocks, and a soft, bright red shawl hung down luxuriously.

Her graceful figure, from her slender waist to her beautiful hips and long legs, and then from her long legs to her fair and delicate feet...

Even Luo Chen had to admit that she was truly a natural beauty...

Otherwise, Mo Fan and the short man next to Luo Chen wouldn't have been staring at him so intently that they couldn't keep their eyes open.

Luo Chen could only roll his eyes helplessly at their behavior.

....................................

As dusk approaches, in this winter season with its long nights and short days, the sun is estimated to set a little after five o'clock.

Although everyone had seen the dead before, the deathly silence before nightfall was unsettling...

With such a vast land, how can you be sure you're not stepping on the territory of a large group of undead?

That's why you have to pay a guide to come here. If you just wander around on your own, the grass on your grave will probably be two and a half meters high by next year.

"Here, eat this."

The burly man pulled out several gray, garlic-shaped objects from the package on his back.

Although this person was strong and healthy, he was just an ordinary person, without any magical aura, and seemed to lack the vitality of an ordinary person.

"You should have told me sooner! I was starving..."

Mo Fan was also very outgoing. As soon as he saw the big, strong man giving out local specialties to everyone, he immediately accepted them.

However, before he could even take a bite, Luo Chen stopped Mo Fan from eating.

"Don't eat this!"

Luo Chen reminded him.

Seeing Luo Chen's expression, the short man immediately assumed that Luo Chen was having a persecution complex and a displeased smile appeared on his face.

"That's how you rich people are, always thinking someone's trying to harm you! I'm here to do things for money, I have a business license!"

If you can't go back, then I'm the one who's ruined my reputation! Still not eating the grey garlic? Hmph, if you don't want to eat it, I don't want to give it to you either!

This is something used to mask the life force of the living! Limited quantities available, so it's better if you don't eat it!

The short man, mindful that Luo Chen was a major client, didn't speak too harshly, but he still expressed some dissatisfaction.

Mo Fan glanced at Luo Chen, then at the short man in front of him, and finally believed Luo Chen, putting the gray garlic into his pocket.

Compared to a stranger of unknown origin, Mo Fan was more willing to believe Luo Chen.

Seeing that Mo Fan shared the same attitude, the short man simply stopped trying to persuade them, and instead prepared to watch the two of them make fools of themselves with a mocking expression.

Just then, everyone noticed that the soil mixed with fine white sand under their feet quickly began to loosen...

It sounds like the sound of a seed pushing through the soil.

"Gurgle~~"

The short man's Adam's apple visibly moved.

Although he had lived in this land of the dead for many years, his heart would still beat violently every time night fell!

Even outside of ancient capitals, this fear can still arise in other cities as night falls.

"Hurry up and eat the garlic!"

The short man quickly gave everyone a word of advice, then took the lead and gulped down a mouthful of gray garlic.

The woman in black stockings and her two attendants did not hesitate and followed suit, swallowing the gray garlic in one gulp.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw the soil mixed with fine white sand under their feet quickly begin to loosen...

It sounds like the sound of a seed pushing through the soil.

"Gurgle~~"

Mo Fan looked at the tense atmosphere around him, smiled disdainfully, and killed the undead that had just crawled out of the ground with a single spell.

However, just as Mo Fan was feeling happy, suddenly, the undead around him were awakened, and the quicksand in dozens of locations around him began to sink...

In a short while, dozens of undead crawled out of the ground one after another, staring blankly at Luo Chen and Mo Fan, which was chilling!

"grass!"

Mo Fan's lips twitched.

He only killed one undead, and it has already awakened so many undead. If he keeps killing, it's uncertain whether he will be able to get out of this desert today!

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and eat the garlic!"

The short man still loudly reminded him.

He just wanted to see the two of them make fools of themselves, but he didn't want to see any casualties on his team.

Mo Fan then realized what was happening, hurriedly took out the gray garlic from his pocket, and then remembered Luo Chen's instructions, so he looked at Luo Chen.

Luo Chen naturally noticed Mo Fan's gaze and shook his head.

"I already said there's no need to eat that stuff! Have you forgotten what my third department is?"

Mo Fan was stunned for a moment. Before he could come to his senses, he saw an extremely dense aura of death suddenly appear around Luo Chen!

Sensing the deathly aura, the spirits instantly mistook the two for their own kind and began to wander aimlessly around them...

Mo Fan finally realized what was happening!

That's right! He almost forgot that Old Luo's third element is the necromancy element!

When it comes to dealing with the undead, Old Luo is the real expert!

At the same time, Asha'ruya, who was wearing a veil, also looked at Luo Chen with great interest.

Necromancers? That's interesting!

Although the ancient capital is rich in undead and can be considered the city with the most necromancy mages in the entire China, necromancy is still very rare in this city.

Not to mention young necromancers like Luo Chen.

After learning that Luo Chen was a genuine necromancer, the dwarf's attitude underwent a complete 180-degree turn.

For someone like him who has traveled extensively in the ancient capital, getting to know a potential necromancer is obviously a beneficial thing!

Thus, surrounded by Luo Chen's death aura, Mo Fan and Luo Chen were essentially invisible to the undead.

"Old Luo, you've been forbidding me from eating this gray garlic. What's wrong with it? Could it be that the guide really has malicious intentions towards us?"

Along the way, Mo Fan finally couldn't resist asking out of curiosity.

"Gray garlic isn't poisonous, but there's no need to eat it, and besides, its taste..."

Luo Chen gave him a meaningful look.

However, after learning Luo Chen's answer, Mo Fan became interested in the gray garlic instead!

"That's interesting. I'd like to see how awful something is, since it's gotten such a strong opinion from you. Didn't they all swallow it whole?"

Seeing that Mo Fan had become interested, Luo Chen did not stop him, but instead showed a look of silent sorrow.

Mo Fan stuffed the whole garlic clove into his mouth and chewed it a few times!

Just a single garlic clove?! How bad could it possibly taste?

....................................

A few minutes later, Mo Fan felt his stomach churning and the lingering "Oli Gei" taste in his mouth, and he almost began to question his existence!
