Adventurer, did you revive today by watching the ads too?

"I think it's unlikely." Skull 3 shook his head. "We're already in this mess, what can we expect? Besides, Jin Jin isn't doing this entirely for us; she also needs to find out what's wrong with this place. But we've been guarding it for so many days, there shouldn't be anything strange. What could be stranger than us?"

"Don't give up, keep hope!" Skull 4 looked up at the sky. "If it really works, we'll be able to taste it! Then we can make some sweet flower wine with fried peanuts, tie a bag to our chins, collect them after eating, and enjoy them again!"

"You're still too young," Skull Number 1, who had initially won at mahjong, said with exasperation. "The most important sense isn't taste, it's touch. Don't you want to lie on a beautiful woman's lap and use your knees as a pillow?!"

"Haha, my opinion is that she's not as good as Little X," Skull No. 2 smiled. "It's so much better to have Little X's lap pillow, and you can even eat XX candy."

"You'll eat it just because it's XX candy?!"

"Forget it, let's taste the spoils I just won at cards... Ugh, even though I've lost my senses and can't smell anything, I can still smell the fragrance of a young girl... Wait, something's wrong, damn it, why is there poop on this?!"

"Oh, I forgot to mention, when I ran into that unconscious adventurer before, he was so scared that he wet his pants. Also, he was a man."

The skeletons were making a lot of noise.

Because of the distance, Hua Zhen couldn't quite hear what they were saying.

"Tia, did you hear what they were saying?"

"You go first, tell us what you said that we both heard," Tia said, showing her intelligence in this matter. "Otherwise, it's hard to say whether it's true based on just one person's words."

Hua Zhen thought about it and realized that was indeed the case.

It's one thing if one person misunderstands, but it's impossible for two people to misunderstand.

"Okay, I heard 'little boy,' 'lap pillow,' 'oil,' 'lace panties,' and stuff like that..."

"So you just listen to whatever you like, huh?" Tia glared at her.

"What nonsense are you spouting? I don't even like men... Besides, I also heard terms like 'array formation'."

“I heard that too,” Tia said seriously, “so there’s no way I can be wrong. There’s probably some kind of magic circle set up by a necromancer in this graveyard, and these strange skeleton soldiers are specifically there to guard it. But where is the magic circle located?”

"Come on," Hua Zhen nodded. "This is none of our business. Our mission is to get rid of the skeleton soldiers that are lurking here, and then go back to Professor Flo to get a way to lift the curse."

"But... what if we don't find the undead creator who summons the skeleton soldiers, and then the undead creator summons another batch?" Tia asked with some worry.

"I didn't realize you were so honest, Tia..." Hua Zhen sneered. "This situation is actually better for us."

Why?

"Listen up, after tonight, it's none of our business how many skeleton soldiers are summoned in this cemetery. Our mission is to eliminate the skeleton soldiers in the cemetery, which means our target is limited to these guys in front of us. As for the undead maker, if it hasn't appeared, it means it doesn't exist."

Hua Zhen's little scheme was quite clever.

"These skeleton soldiers are special in themselves; they're conscious and can talk. That alone is quite valuable intelligence. To put it bluntly, the fact that Professor Flo entrusted this to the two of us proves that he didn't really care about it. What more could you ask for than 1000 Sola?"

"That's true..."

Tiague realized what was going on and her eyes lit up: "Anyway, there's no official request from the Adventurers' Guild, so even if something goes wrong later, it won't be our fault!"

Hua Zhen gave her a "you're teachable" look and casually tore open a Da Rou energy bar and stuffed it into Karula's mouth.

This little guy becomes exceptionally well-behaved whenever he has something delicious in his mouth.

"Shall we go?" Tia asked tentatively.

"Okay, let's rush over together while they're unarmed and catch them off guard. Just keep an eye on Karula." Hua Zhen gripped her short sword tightly. "If things get dangerous, use time stop."

"Understood." Tia also took out her throwing knife.

The two men quietly peeked out from behind the thick tree trunk.

The skeletons ahead didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to play cards and were about to disperse.

Hua Zhen gave Tia Ge a wink.

Immediately afterwards, the two rushed out from behind the tree trunk and attacked the skeletons near the stone table!

But just three seconds later, a series of urgent barks rang out from behind.

Hua Zhen and Tia glanced back and realized that Karula, who hadn't reacted yet, was being dragged and slid along the ground by them. Shiva, seeing his daughter in such a miserable state, called out and chased after them, while the victim herself was focused on eating her Daruo energy bar, without complaining about her ordeal.

There's no other way; we can't stop now, we have to keep going!

The barking attracted the attention of the skeletons, who all turned to look in this direction.

"yeah?"

"Why are there still people here at this hour, and with a child in tow?"

"These are human traffickers!" Skull 2 ​​roared. "I can't even imagine what they'd do dragging a child to a cemetery like this. What kind of R-rated content is this? The world is going to hell!"

"No... I have a feeling those two are coming for us?"

Just as the skeletons were confused, Hua Zhen rushed forward and chopped off the head of Skeleton No. 1 with a single sword stroke.

A white human skull flew past my eyes.

For a fleeting moment, Hua Zhen and its four "eyes" met.

For some reason, Hua Zhen felt as if she could see human-like fear and anger in the dark eye sockets of the skull in front of her.

But it doesn't matter, it looks like a demon anyway, we can just kill it.

"Aaaaaaah, boss!"

"Brother!"

"You uncivilized bastard, you bullied my brother, didn't you?!"

The remaining three skeletons immediately surrounded them.

Although they were just skeletons, these skeletons were very agile and almost rushed up to Hua Zhen, raising their fists.

Just as Hua Zhen was about to be surrounded by the enemy, Tia Ge, who was slightly behind, arrived.

"—World, time, stop for me!!!"

As the girl announced this, the clock slowly stopped, and the world suddenly lost its color.

Time stood still at that moment.

The first second.

Tia Ge braced herself on her knees, panting heavily.

The second second.

He continued to pant.

In the third second, having regained some strength, she tried to grab the short sword from Hua Zhen's hand, but for some reason, Hua Zhen's grip on the sword was extremely tight, and she couldn't pry it open at all. So she chose to kick a skeleton in front of Hua Zhen with all her might.

In the fourth and fifth seconds, she simultaneously drew her bow with both hands, shifting the positions of the other two skeletons that were about to strike Hua Zhen's fists, so that they were facing each other's faces.

The next instant, time began to flow.

"Bang!"

The right skull's fist smashed into the left skull's head, cracking its skull.

However, it also suffered a severe blow, with its jaw being shattered.

Upon seeing this scene, Hua Zhen instantly understood that Tia had used her power.

Without delay, he took advantage of the moment when both sides were stunned by the attack and knocked them down. Tia also dealt with the skeleton that she had kicked away earlier.

If it were someone with decent physical strength, that kick would probably have shattered it!

"Hahahaha..." Tia laughed, hands on her hips and belly protruding. "I cleared the game without taking any damage! Is that it?"

"Don't rush, not yet!" Hua Zhen didn't get carried away.

Although the four skeletons had been reduced to a pile of bones, it was clear that the characteristics of skeleton soldiers were at work. The scattered bones were moving on their own, trying to reassemble their skeletons, and they were doing so very quickly, taking only about half a minute to complete the process.

Normally, the treatment only works if the bones are completely crushed or purified.

However, Hua Zhen cannot use the bouncing bomb in the cemetery.

Fortunately, he had other options.

Hua Zhen quickly pulled several snakeskin bags out of his pocket and threw them to Tia Ge.

"Separate their bones!"

"Alright!"

Hua Zhen and Tia Ge immediately sprang into action.

Hua Zhen was in charge of activating the war trampling mode, frantically stomping on the skeleton below that was trying to reassemble, while Tia Ge was responsible for separating the broken bones and putting them into different snakeskin bags.

The two had a clear division of labor, and the way they carried iron pots and worked in the cemetery looked just like two diligent tortoises.

Before long, Tia had finally put all the bones into the snakeskin bag and tied a knot at the top.

The bones, packed separately in different bags, were still writhing frantically, trying to reassemble themselves. However, due to external physical barriers, this was simply impossible unless these bones belonging to different bodies could be freely assembled like Lego bricks.

nailed it……

Hua Zhen gasped for breath.

This is the technique that Hua Zhen came up with after receiving the commission.

Since skeleton soldiers can reassemble after being destroyed, we should find a way to prevent them from doing so.

The most crucial props weren't the iron pot for protection, but the rope and bag bought from the grocery store.

Tia wiped the sweat from her forehead and collapsed onto the ground.

Despite possessing a bug-level ability like stopping time, her own physical abilities are incredibly weak.

I don't know how to evaluate it...

"It's not as difficult as I thought!" She laughed smugly.

"It's not over yet," Hua Zhen said, extending her hand to Tia Ge. "Don't just stand there. Next, we need to get these bones outside the cemetery and destroy them with bouncing bombs. Only then will our work be finished."

"Alright, alright, let's go. We can still get some chilled fruit beer if we go back now!"

Tia grabbed Hua Zhen's hand and stood up again.

Sweat dampened her cheeks, and a few strands of golden hair clung to her slightly flushed skin, which was as red as a peach and looked very tempting.

However, Hua Zhen only glanced at it before looking away; in other words, his attention was not on Tia Ge's beautiful face.

Hua Zhen usually observes a girl's eyes, because the eyes are the windows to the soul.

If a girl's eyes aren't looking at him, Hua Zhen will look at her legs.

Judging from the bandages wrapped around her legs and the shape of her legs, Tia Go's legs were undoubtedly a pair of chubby little legs, long and slender but with a slight feeling of being squeezed.

Unfortunately, Tia was wearing those super durable shorts that covered half of her thighs and deerskin boots. Not only were her legs covered in bandages, but her feet weren't even exposed.

If you don't show your feet, what am I supposed to eat?

With nothing to eat, Hua Zhen could only turn her attention to the hands of the girl she was in physical contact with.

Don't tell me, you really shouldn't tell me.

Tia's little hands are indeed quite fragrant and soft.

The phrase "delicate hands, soft as if boneless" perfectly describes this.

Even my hands smell faintly of lavender...

Then wouldn't her shoes after exercising be used as air fresheners (oO)?

It's a pity, Tia...

Although you are a beautiful young woman, you are still too old.

Overall, Carula, that mature woman, is still a cut above you... no, she's a complete winner.

"You're suppressing your feelings, Hua Zhen." A sigh came from behind.

Hua Zhen was startled and looked up to see Tia Ge shaking her head in slight disappointment.

What?! Could it be... that this guy can read minds?!

"How long are you going to keep squeezing my hand?" Tia asked again.

"Oh, look at the mess you've made," Hua Zhen smiled. "I was just lost in thought for a moment, there was nothing to suppress or anything."

Tia said with a slightly helpless tone, "You know, Hua Zhen, if a person is aware that they are repressed, then they are not actually repressed. It is those who are clearly repressed but cannot recognize it that are truly repressed."

"Why?" Hua Zhen asked seriously.

This is a serious issue.

In Tia's description, he clearly belongs to the latter category.

"Because he's repressed without realizing it, he's incredibly repressed but doesn't notice it. People who claim they're not repressed... he'd be the one to get the worst of it when he gets the chance!"

"Is it...is it that serious?"

Hua Zhen was taken aback.

Am I really that repressed?

"Of course, I guess you haven't had time to talk to her these past few days, so it's been building up and making her feel increasingly depressed," Tia asked. "Which do you think is more important to you, a beautiful woman or a sum of money?"

"Money, of course!"

"Why?" Tia was taken aback.

"With money, why would I worry about not having beautiful women?" Hua Zhen answered honestly. "You didn't see those maids in the upper district. They're all very good-looking. Besides, tall women are too old for someone like me who likes mature women. Let's go back."

Tia was speechless, unsure of what to say for a moment.

Hua Zhen's logic is fucking right!

A person who is fond of sex is inevitably a greedy person.

With such a huge amount of money, he was able to indulge in all sorts of pleasures!

Suddenly, cold sweat trickled down Tia's forehead.

She recalled the night she returned to Farlans from the Goblin Cave. After dragging the unconscious Hua Zhen back to the inn, she couldn't resist her curiosity and examined his body, seeing that he was completely naked. Although she didn't touch him herself, she remembered very clearly that Hua Zhen had a mole three fingers below his abdomen.

Does that mean I'm also feeling very repressed?

She didn't show it on a daily basis, nor did she suppress her desires, so Tia always felt that money was more important. But in reality, if she had money, she might just go to nightclubs and patronize a bunch of male models!

God...

Is that really possible?

Tia felt a surge of turmoil within her.

You should know that you are the child of your father and your mother, who is a woman from Lonnos.

In other words... he has half of the genes of a woman from Lonos flowing through his veins!

The women of Lonnos were cunning and treacherous, skilled in robbery, theft, and fraud, and they especially coveted handsome young boys...

The woman from Lonos... she's like a rat in Farlans, someone everyone hates and beats up!

Just as the atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.

Suddenly a sound came from behind.

"Huh? Who are you?"
