When he saw all these skeleton soldiers kneeling in front of him with their heads lowered as if they were performing a kneeling ceremony, Yang Di knew that he had done the right thing this time.
At this time, he also held up the token that was shining with green light, and looked at the gray mist around him that began to roll up as if stimulated by something.
Yang Di cleared his throat and then spoke loudly:
"I am here on behalf of the respected elders to have a conversation. If possible, please allow me to communicate with you. I know you can understand what I say, and I also know that you can communicate with me!"
Before, when Yang Di and his men were exploring the depths of Long City, they were forced to enter the subway tunnel for various reasons. There they met the leader of the Seventh Dynasty of the Black Arrow Tower, who claimed to be an undead leader transformed from a former wood elf. He spared them and expressed enough goodwill.
It was also for this reason that Yang Di and the undead leader of the Seventh Dynasty of the Black Arrow Tower at that time verbally concluded an alliance and informed him of the location of his wood elf village to avoid being attacked by the Skeleton Legion.
Even when the Diesel Company attacked their Wood Elf Village, the possibility of the Wood Elf Village being destroyed was avoided because the Skeleton Legion in the subway tunnel warned the Diesel Company.
Therefore, Yang Di knew very well that these undead skeleton armies were able to communicate.
As expected, as Yang Di's voice just fell, the surrounding gray fog rolled more violently.
"I really didn't expect that the Great Elder would actually send you here with the Holy Tree Token that symbolizes the Council of Wood Elves Elders."
A strange, hoarse tone, as if the sound of stones rubbing against each other, slowly sounded from within the gray fog.
At the same time, as the gray fog dissipated to the left and right, a tall figure emerged from it.
A tall black skeleton with a metallic luster all over its body appeared inside, holding a gray-black bow and arrow in its hand. In the skull without any flesh and blood, a faint blue soul fire was flickering, and in the depths of the soul fire, one could vaguely make out a green light swaying in it.
This was exactly the undead creature that Yang Di had encountered before, transformed from the wood elves, and was also the leader of the Seventh Dynasty of the Black Arrow Tower.
To be precise, he should be the leader of the advance force sent here by the Seventh Dynasty of Black Arrow Tower.
"Hello, respected Wood Elf senior." Yang Di was still holding the sacred tree token belonging to the Wood Elf Council.
But his tone was quite respectful.
The reason why he didn't put down the sacred tree token of the Wood Elf Council was because he was afraid that these undead creatures would take unfavorable actions against him. In order to avoid trouble, he decided to hold up the sacred tree token.
"Okay, put down the sacred tree token. All the skeletons here are actually members of the Wood Elf Corps that once belonged to the Jupiter Spirit Council."
The leader of the advance army of the Seventh Dynasty of the Black Arrow Tower who came out also looked at the Holy Tree Token with nostalgia, and said with some emotion: "I knew it was right to come out and meet you at that time. Your Wood Elf Village is also an important layout arranged by the Great Elder here. I guessed it right."
"Yes, the Great Elder also agreed to my meeting with you this time. He said that after giving me this token, you will understand everything." Yang Di explained truthfully.
"Of course that's the case. After all, the Great Elder is my brother." The leader of the advance army of the Black Arrow Tower's Seventh Dynasty took two steps forward. His whole body was filled with black mist and a black halo. Even when he came into the light illuminated by the torches held by the wood elves, it still had no effect on him.
Instead, when he took two steps forward, the black mist and black halo in his body seemed to have a special fluctuation. Then, it began to attach to his skeleton as he wished.
Gradually, muscles and tendons appeared on the skeleton, and skin was formed. Within just two or three breaths, the skeleton had a texture like flesh.
Just like the revival of flesh and blood, the wood elf skeleton, which was originally just a horrible skeleton, has once again turned into a real flesh and blood body.
Or rather, a simulated flesh and blood body.
After two or three breaths, the skeleton showed the classic image of a wood elf with slightly dark skin, tall and strong body and a muscular face.
He was also wearing a luxurious robe, but compared to the wood elf elders in the wood elf plane who wore green, gold or silver floral costumes, the clothes he was wearing were made entirely of gray and black.
The clothing is fundamentally different from those in the wood elf plane. Of course, if you look at the skin color, you can tell that this is a special elf that looks very much like a wood elf.
But in contrast, the dark elves had skin that was crystal clear and as black as the moonlight.
This wood elf, on the contrary, has some evil and weird colors.
"Don't be so nervous. This is just a special face I created using the rules of the dead. At least compared to that ugly skeleton, my appearance now is more in line with the definition of a living being." The leader of the advance army, who had completed his disguise, smiled, but the smile was quite stiff.
But he also explained it: "I'm sorry, I haven't laughed for a long time. If I think about it, maybe thousands or even tens of thousands of years have passed. After all, before I landed in the Blue Star World, with the collapse of the Crystal Wall System, time and space no longer flowed. I was trapped there and I don't know how much time has passed. Of course, for us who were in a closed state at that time, time had no meaning at all."
“Of course, of course.” Yang Di had nothing to say about this. He just lowered his head again humbly, but the holy tree token in his hand was still raised and emitting green light.
"Well, you don't need to hold it like this anymore. It's tiring." The leader of the advance army still showed a stiff smile: "How about this, you should just call me by my name. You can call me Ludwig."
"Understood, respected Mr. Ludwig." Although Yang Di said this, he still didn't dare to put down the surgical token in his hand. He placed it above his head and let the token flash with green light, illuminating the surrounding space and flashing with the breath of nature.
"Hehehehe." The smile on the face of Ludwig, the leader of the advance army of the Black Arrow Tower Seventh Dynasty, felt more and more familiar.
But his smile was still quite stiff.
However, as his smile appeared, he took two steps forward and came to the holy tree token that was filled with the breath of nature. Then, in front of Yang Di's astonished gaze, he reached out and placed his hand on the green token, and then took it from Yang Di's hand.
"This is this is this." Yang Di was completely shocked. He didn't expect that the Holy Tree Token in his hand would be taken away by this undead monster. Of course, it wasn't taken away, but the Holy Tree Token was easily taken away from his hand without any resistance at all, and even the natural breath contained in it did not have any idea of resistance.
It was easily captured by this undead monster disguised as a normal creature.
Ludwig, the leader of the Black Arrow Tower Seventh Dynasty advance army, took it in his hand and even looked down at the exquisite token with a nostalgic look in his eyes.
"I never thought that I would get this Holy Tree Token again. I never thought that I would be able to feel the breath of nature one day. I never thought that my brother would give me the Holy Tree Token." The leader of the advance army who called himself Ludwig, the color of emotion in his eyes became deeper and deeper, so that his eyes, which were originally black, began to sway with a light like the fire of the soul.
With a faint blue glow and a deep green light, his face looked extremely strange and enchanting.
"Lord Ludwig, are you okay?" Yang Di swallowed subconsciously at this time. Looking at Ludwig in front of him, he was a little speechless. Because of the strange look on his face, his mood seemed to be in his throat.
"Oh, of course, I'm fine." The expression on Ludwig's face was extremely distorted at this time, revealing a combination of emotions as if he wanted to laugh and cry, with a bit of nostalgia, regret, and anger.
It's not like what he said, he looks fine.
As a result, Yang Di in front of him, Zhang Song behind him, as well as the Blue Star humans and Wood Elf followers, all subconsciously tightened their weapons in their hands.
His mood was the same as Yang Di's. His heart was in his throat and was beating so fast that it sounded like a drum.
They even looked at each other and saw the fear and anxiety in each other's eyes.
Now they have gone deep into the subway station entrance. If the leader of the advance army of the Black Arrow Tower Seventh Dynasty attacks them, or directly orders the surrounding skeleton legions to attack them, although they can force themselves to escape from the subway station entrance, they will definitely suffer heavy losses.
And this is the best result.
If the result was not good, they would probably be ground to death in this subway tunnel by the skeleton army of the Black Arrow Tower's Seventh Dynasty, and completely turned into a pile of useless skeletons.
There is only one ending: death.
"You seem to be very scared." But Ludwig spoke slowly with a faint smile on his face: "Don't be afraid, because the natural power contained in this sacred tree token can save me."
"What redemption?" Yang Di's face was very shocked at this time, his breathing was a little rapid, and he was speechless looking at Ludwig.
He didn't know what to say either.
'Om! '
But at this moment, a green light suddenly appeared in the Holy Tree Token, and released a series of things that looked like tiny meteors, which directly penetrated into Ludwig's body.
Especially in front of Ludwig's eyes and in his mind, the number of green spots that turned into meteors and disappeared was even greater.
In just a short moment, all of it flooded into Ludwig's mind.
The green light that was originally released from the Holy Tree Token also began to disappear, and finally the green token turned into an ordinary token carved from a cat's-eye emerald.
The natural atmosphere inside has disappeared.
However, the black sheen on Ludwig's body was suddenly purified by the countless green light spots that penetrated into it.
Including the color of the soul fire flickering in Ludwig's eyes, which gradually changed from the original dark blue to complete green.
Ludwig's face calmed down.
Then this peaceful look flashed across his entire body, gradually changing from the initial black luster to a white luster that a normal creature should have.
In other words, it directly allowed Ludwig to get rid of his previous strange appearance and transform into the skin color that a normal creature should have.
"Praise nature, praise you, praise the power of nature." At this time Ludwig slowly opened his mouth and uttered a eulogy of praise. A green glow shone from his eyes, and only in the deepest part of his eyes did a black light appear.
He seemed to be purified, or returned to the flesh and blood state of a wood elf.
"Is this resurrection?" Zhang Song, who was behind Yang Di, suddenly asked in surprise.
"No, this is not resurrection. This is just the power of nature. It has allowed me to temporarily escape the erosion of the rules of the dead."
Ludwig looked at the smiles on their faces and suddenly became more natural. He sighed slowly, shook his head and said, "If the natural consciousness takes over the world again, then I may be resurrected. But now it is just the great power of nature that has brought me back to the state of flesh and blood. But this is not resurrection, it is just some temporary gift given to me by the power of nature."
"So that's how it is." Yang Di and Zhang Song looked at each other, and also showed an expression that they didn't know what to say.
They really didn't know what to say.
"Okay, I already know your plan. My brother has also explained it to me clearly in this sacred tree token. Don't worry, I am always ready to follow your instructions. As long as you are ready, I will also be ready."
Ludwig smiled faintly, and as he looked at the skeleton warriors on the subway platform, some sadness appeared in his eyes: "After all, we have no hope, and the only hope is that the Blue Star world can once again become the carrier of the great natural consciousness. This is the only hope." (End of this chapter)
