Xiao Zhi followed Frost and left the messy hall.

They walked all the way out of the crypt, which was different from when they came. The crypt at the moment was very quiet, there were no roaring undead soldiers, and no stiff awakened corpses, as if this place was originally so empty.

Only the green ghost eyes that occasionally appeared in the corner still told that this was a dangerous dead zone, but the ghost eyes only dared to spy in the dark, and no one dared to approach the advancing two.

Xiao Zhi and Frost left with such great fanfare.

Stepping out of the crypt, although the top of the head was still the gloomy sky of the Borderlands, it made Xiao Zhi feel much more comfortable compared to the darkness underground, and even the wandering awakened corpse was a bit pleasing to his eyes.

Xiao Zhi was thinking about how Assen wanted to leave.

Although Borderlands is also bordered by Hesse, the area is not small. If there is no teleportation array, don't know how long it will take to walk.

When he saw Frost take out a small bone flute, he raised his hand and put it on his light-colored lips, and blew it lightly.

There was no sound coming from the bone flute, but Frost had withdrawn his hand and waited quietly, clearly as if he had done something.

Xiao Zhi didn't ask any questions, and waited quietly.

Not long after, there was a sudden sound of breaking in the air.

Xiao Zhi looked up and saw an inconspicuous little dot appeared in the high sky above their heads, but in just a split second, the dot quickly enlarged in his sight, and became bigger and more familiar.

It's Alifa!

Alifa was probably flying on the clouds before, so Xiao Zhi who was below did not see its flight path at all, and could only catch the trace of Alifa when it descended.

"Gu" Alpha landed with a bang, stirring up the death and resentment on the ground.

Alifa glanced around with his big empty eyes, and finally found his master. He wagged his tail excitedly, strode his sturdy thighs, and rushed towards Frost like an oversized chariot.

Looking at this posture, those who didn't know it thought it was going to swallow Frost in one bite.

Frost raised his platinum-gold eyes and glanced at Alifa lightly, his eyes were as calm as seeing a bone dragon torn to pieces.

"Gu..." Alifa's not-so-smart brain sensed the crisis, and his steps couldn't help but slow down.

But it really wanted to express its uncontrollable happiness at the moment, its big black hole-like eyes turned, and suddenly saw Xiao Zhi standing quietly beside him.

It's the clerk!

The secretary has been playing with Alifa all the time! The clerk must have especially liked Alifa! Clerk hugs! !

Alifa seemed to have received the revelation of the god of death, and the direction of its feet turned, and it rushed towards Xiao Zhi aggressively.

Then there was a slap.

Fortunately, after the warning from Frost's eyes, Alifa's speed has been greatly reduced. At this time, Xiao Zhi felt as if he had been rubbed by a hard and large dog.

It's extremely hard and huge, the kind that can bite off a century-old tree in one bite.

Xiao Zhi skillfully stretched out his hand and patted Alifa's sturdy brain, making a "bang bang" sound. Alifa expressed that he was very happy about it. The dog's coquettish posture.

When Alifa was finally happy enough, Frost said lightly, "Let's go."

Only then did Alifa obediently let the two climb up on his back, and Xiao Zhi sat behind Frost.

This is also the first time a player has ever boarded the mount of a Hessian lord. It can be regarded as an unprecedented initiative, and there will probably be no newcomers in the future. Unfortunately, no one witnessed this exciting moment.

To be honest, the back of the bone dragon is of course all bones, only the saddle is soft. If Xiao Zhi sat up in a living state, he would probably feel his legs being slapped, but fortunately he is now an undead, light and airy. will not feel uncomfortable at all.

Alifa took the two of them all the way into the sky, and the barren scene of that Fa's burial ground gradually faded away.

When Xiao Zhi looked down, a kind of pride arose in his heart that he was in control of the world.

The world is big, but from another angle, it is actually quite small.

When Alifa crossed the clouds and started to fly at full speed, Xiao Zhi suddenly felt that something was wrong - the wind was too strong!

If had to describe this feeling, it would probably be like crawling out of the plane when Xiao Zhi was on a plane, and everyone was about to be blown away! Especially the light body of the undead, it will be blown out in minutes!

One second, he was still immersed in the joy of pretending, but the next second, Xiao Zhi had to grab Frost in front of him to stabilize his body, and he didn't care if the boss would send him on his way alone.

Fortunately, Frost is a very kind boss. He probably also knows that Alifa's speed is not very friendly to the light-bodied undead, and maybe it also means to repay what happened in the crypt before. He just let Xiao Zhi stretch out his arms around his waist, without any intention of physically laying off staff.

Xiao Zhi grabbed Frost's waist and used his broad back to block the oncoming wind.

Xiao Zhi felt a little embarrassed, when did he get so embarrassed by a gust of wind?

But soon he was righteous.

Anyway, his current personality is a fragile civil servant, and he has even experienced the experience of eating and waiting to die, so what's the matter with his own boss? He is a good and conscientious employee who has made outstanding contributions to Hesse's GDP growth.

The bottom line of human beings is like this, it will always drop again and again, and no one knows when they will do the things that they spurned back then.

Everything in front of him was blocked by Frost's back. Xiao Zhi could only see the flying silver hair rising and falling in front of his eyes. He looked so flamboyant and wanton, occupying his entire field of vision.

The two flew all the way to Hesse.

Alifa's speed was unbelievable, and he was in the cloud without obstacles. It didn't take long to bring them back to Hesse.

Arriving at the Hessian territory, the height of Alifa gradually decreased, and the black forest in front of him became clearer and clearer.

After no longer facing the gust of wind that almost blew people away, Xiao Zhi felt embarrassed to hold Frost tightly, otherwise it would really look like a scheming secretary trying to hook up with the boss.

The pale buildings of the corpse palace can already be seen far below, and Alifa's speed has also slowed down slightly.

At this moment, Frost suddenly stood up, and just jumped off the back of Alifa, who was still galloping, and fell straight down.

His movements are light and laid-back, as casual as if he's just jumping from the windowsill to the ground, even as he accelerates.

But his feet are really high in the sky. If an ordinary person comes, he will fall into a two-dimensional paper person in minutes.

Xiao Zhi remembered that when he was in Chiba Kingdom, King Chiba once jumped off the snow vulture like this. He couldn't help but wonder if this was a compulsory course for the bigwigs of all forces. After all, it was not only handsome but also imposing with such a jump! Those who have no confidence in their own strength can't dare to do so.

Frost quickly disappeared from Xiao Zhi's field of vision.

Xiao Zhi was still sitting on Alpha's back, and he landed smoothly on the ground. As an old driver who has been dead for many years, Alifa's driving skills are still quite reliable.

"Cuckoo~" Seeing Xiao Zhi getting off his back, Alifa was holding his head back to him, and his tail couldn't help but keep wagging, as if asking for praise.

Xiao Zhi also understood what it meant, reached out and patted Alifa's head, while complimenting: "Alifa is really amazing."

Alifa turned around happily.

After playing with Alifa for a while, Alifa walked away contentedly and went to find a place to chew on the bones.

Xiao Zhi returned to the Government Affairs Office and took a look, and found that there were not many documents that required his intervention, because most of the trivial matters were left to Milton to handle. He quickly finished the paperwork, and went to Milton to ask about the progress of the construction of Hesse. After getting the answer that everything went smoothly, Xiao Zhi felt relieved - skipped work.

That's right, skipping work, skipping work makes people happy, skipping work makes people addicted, even if he just finished the last round of skipping work.

After leaving Hessen and looking for a hidden place, Xiao Zhi returned to the hometown of wood spirits.

After returning to his room, Xiao Zhi called out the tool man, Da Zhuang Zhuang, and placed the materials he had harvested from his trip to the Borderlands on the ground.

"The resentment of the dead!" As soon as Da Zhuangzhuang came out, he went straight to the most important harvest of this trip.

It held the grudge of the dead higher than it in both hands and slammed, as if the green ghost in the crystal was a peerless beauty, and that movement skillfully reminded Xiao Zhi of the coquettish Alifa.

After enough rubbing, Da Zhuangzhuang has the leisure to pay attention to other things.

It was only then that he noticed that there were still a lot of materials on the ground, common and rare, and even those that required a master-level or higher appraisal technique. It was almost like going out to sweep.

It looked at the materials on the ground and asked its boss: "Boss, are you looting that method?"

Xiao Zhi thought about it for a while, this statement is really true, Asen led him straight in, seeing who was fighting who was no different from robbery.

Xiao Zhi: "That's right."

Big Zhuangzhuang widened his dark eyes: "How did you do it?! Master Bruqiang had such a dream back then, but he gave up after looking in the mirror."

Xiao Zhi: "I got it from my boss."

Big Zhuangzhuang showed an envious look. Although its boss is also very good, in comparison, the boss's boss seems to be more... fascinating.

Xiao Zhi looked at its eyes and said ruthlessly, "Don't think about it, that's my boss."

Big Zhuangzhuang: "..."

Can't you just think about it? It won't jump ship.

Now, the materials for upgrading the Soul Chaser, the Resentful Fire of the Dead, Absa Flame Crystal, and Soul Fire Crystal are all complete, and the Soul Chaser can be improved.

According to Da Zhuangzhuang's suggestion, Xiao Zhi teleported to Chiba City, ready to rent a casting room in the city.

Xiao Zhi searched the player forum and finally chose a foundry with the best reputation. The Wood Spirit Clan did not have a profiteer culture like the Xiyue Clan, and they were very kind. Generally speaking, they paid every penny for what they got. This best foundry was of course the most expensive.

According to the player who recommended this workshop, this one will definitely make you feel distressed when you go in, but your heart beats when you come out. All in all, it is the absolute value of the money spent.

Xiao Zhi is not short of money now, he directly asked the receptionist at the entrance of the foundry for a top-notch foundry room.

The top-of-the-line is really expensive, and it costs 20,000 gold shells for an hour.

At the same time, they also provide accommodation, meal delivery, clothes change, and even personal doctor services. Of course, these will be charged additionally.

After paying the fee for the whole day, Xiao Zhi followed the waiter into the casting room.

The interior is very spacious, with a huge and exquisite stove in the middle. The craftsmanship and materials used are top-notch. All fuels and flames are optional, and even some auxiliary materials are provided for free here. There is also a suite next to it, from accommodation to bathing, which is no different from a hotel suite.

After the waiter left, Da Zhuangzhuang immediately walked around the room like a bumpkin, looking around, looking like he had never seen the world.

Xiao Zhi felt that it was a bit strange. It is reasonable to say that Da Zhuangzhuang was the hammer soul who followed Master Blue, and he should have seen a lot. Why is it like this?

He casually uttered his question.

Da Zhuangzhuang touched the stove: "Master Bruggong likes to conduct new experiments in the foundry room, he has blown up many foundry rooms, and has been blacklisted by almost all foundry workshops on the mainland. I haven't been in this for many years. Gorgeous casting room..."

"Look at this silky touch, this thick furnace body, this powerful sound..."

Tears welled up in his round lion's eyes as he spoke, and he didn't know what kind of bitter life he had lived.

Da Zhuangzhuang picked out a few supporting materials and commented excitedly: "This one looks really good! This one is also good!! Isn't this Dalit Gold? I can use this casually too? God..."

"Wow! This Mu Xinyan is so good! Shui Lanhuo is also good!! And the flame of Quadnar? My king of beasts! Is this heaven?!!"

Looking at Da Zhuangzhuang's happy appearance, Xiao Zhi knew that the money in this foundry room was really not in vain.

Then Da Zhuang Zhuang began to smelt the material.

This process will take a lot of time, Xiao Zhi is also bored by the side, so he runs to the water forum in the suite next to him.

After the burial of that method, Asen's headache made him a little concerned. He wanted to know the reason for Asen's headache and his past experiences, as well as the reason why he wanted him to be wanted.

Unfortunately, searched for a long time and found nothing.

To the player, the Hessian lord is a fog, perhaps not only to the player, but to the knight commanders of Hessian, this lord who appeared out of thin air is also a mystery.

His past is unknown, he is taciturn, and he never mentions his past. He is always alone and extremely powerful, as if he was born with a sense of distance from everyone.

But Xiao Zhi knew that he wasn't like this from the beginning. The former Assen was clearly mild-mannered and full of interest in the outside world.

Do you want to ask Asen in person?

But from what he knew about Assen during this time, Xiao Zhi was sure that the lord would not say anything.

Xiao Zhi thought about the use of the memory slate by Assen again. Perhaps even he himself did not know what happened in the past, so he had to use the memory slate to trace his past.

So, where exactly is Asen's past hidden?

At this time, a name suddenly flashed in his mind - "Brace".

Blaise's hostility to Hesse was deep, and it could be explained if it was just saying that justice triumphed over evil, but Xiao Zhi always felt a little weird. And Lance also said that Braith's attack on Hesse has continued since Assen became the lord, and maybe he should check Braith.

While thinking wildly, Xiao Zhi looked at the forum, and suddenly a post was put on the front page——【Want to crusade Hesse Secretary? 】

Seeing that he was occupying the topic again, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but open it and take a look. It was found that there was basically a miserable meeting of the victims of the Hessian clerk. The more they talked, the more angry they became. Finally, they unanimously decided that if anyone finds out that the clerk is out of order, they must notify each other, and then form a group to teach him a lesson.

"..." Xiao Zhi closed the address book blankly.

Great, when the trade zone opens up, be sure to increase taxes on these guys.

As for the order? Then see, who will teach whom?

One day passed like that.

"Boss!! The Soul Chaser has been upgraded!"

Hearing the strong voice, Xiao Zhi instantly got up from the bed. When came to the casting room outside, saw Da Zhuang Zhuang waving his tail happily, and his little hand almost waved the afterimage, desperately motioning Xiao Zhi to look at the Soul Chaser.

Looking at the big and strong hand, there is a red staff on the platform in the middle. The lava inside the staff seems to be more fiery, and the shape has become more gorgeous.

Xiao Zhi reached out and picked up the upgraded Soul Chaser. The Soul Chaser's current attributes are:

Use level: 200

Magic attack power: 3146——? ? ?

Physical attack power: 3527——? ? ?

Attack range +2

Mana Condensation Speed ​​+5

Fire spell damage bonus: 10%——? ? ?

Attack effect: Randomly trigger the special effect "Soul Chasing", the skill power is increased by 150%, and the range is increased by 20%, which lasts for 30 seconds

Description: The last work of Master Baluqiang, but unfortunately it was not completely completed. It has undergone an improvement.

Soul Chaser not only has more than doubled the magic attack power, but also has doubled the physical attack power, which may be due to the integration of the sturdy soul fire crystal. The current Soul Chaser, both in terms of magical attack power and physical attack power, has reached the first-class level of full-level weapons, and it is only a thin line away from the top.

The damage bonus of fire spells has also changed from the original 5% to 10%. What is even more exciting is the special effect of "chasing the soul". The original skill power was increased by 100%, but now it has also become 150%. A child is not a dream.

After all the experience in that way, Xiao Zhi's current level has reached 203, and it is just right to use the upgraded Soul Chaser.

Xiao Zhi is very satisfied with this, Da Zhuangzhuang is really amazing.

Xiao Zhi asked Da Zhuangzhuang what reward he wanted. Unexpectedly, Da Zhuangzhuang said he wanted him to continue to find materials to upgrade Soul Chaser, and then he could continue to enjoy the joy of forging.

Big and strong happiness is so unpretentious.

As a hammer soul, it really has no material pursuits. Only by constantly producing magic weapons can it make it happy.

There was no other way, Xiao Zhi could only search for all kinds of rainbow farts he had heard of, and exaggerated the big and strong, and he floated up to the sky happily, and the little tail flicked and looked too happy. .

After solving the problem of the Soul Chaser, Xiao Zhi left the foundry happily.

Sure enough, it's worth the money.

After that, Xiao Zhi's life returned to a peaceful daily life.

Occasionally go to Hesse to check the progress of the project, inhale the experience spree, or take lessons in the game with the brothers and do the tasks arranged by Li Daye. He didn't forget to find a place to dispose of the waking corpses in the backpack.

On this day, Xiao Zhi returned to the Hessian government office.

There are not many documents on the table, it is easy to handle, and the planning of the trade area and transportation is also very smooth.

"Bam—"

"Boom bang—"

Suddenly, there was a crashing sound outside the window. Xiao Zhi was quite familiar with this sound. When Alifa came to play with him, it was like this crashing against the window.

Xiao Zhi floated out of the window and wanted to ask what was wrong with Alifa, but before he could speak, Alifa opened his mouth wide and contained Xiao Zhi's whole body in his own big mouth.

Xiao Zhi, who was caught off guard, said, "..."

From Alifa's big mouth leaking air everywhere, he saw that the surrounding environment kept receding, which showed that he was rapidly moving away from the corpse palace.

Where is Alifa going to take him?

Because of his familiarity with Alifa, Xiao Zhi knew that Alifa would not hurt him. He didn't panic at all, and sat leisurely in Alifa's big mouth, waiting for Alifa to take him to his destination.

Fortunately, Alifa has no saliva.

All the way forward, Xiao Zhi's nose suddenly smelled the smell of the sea. There is no ocean near Hesse. There are only three countries bordering the entire continent and the ocean, Chiba Country, Dolly Alliance and Brace. The longest coastline is the Dolly Alliance with many Xiyue tribes.

Alifa should not go to Brace, and from the length of the coastline, the possibility of targeting the Dolly Alliance is higher than that of Chiba.

After a while, Xiao Zhi felt that Alpha landed on the land.

Alifa opened his mouth and let Xiao Zhi float out.

Xiao Zhi floated out and took a look, feeling a little confused, because there is an endless sea all around here, the sea is very deep, it is no longer the shallow blue of the sea, but has become a dark blue. The only land is the island under their feet. The island is so small that it can be seen at a glance. It is bare, with only sand and washed shells and corals.

Xiao Zhi asked Alifa, "Why did you bring me here?"

"Cuckoo, cuckoo - cuckoo..." Alifa said.

Xiao Zhi returned its confused expression.

Alifa changed his way. It stood up on its hind legs and walked upright, with its forelegs constantly gesturing in the air as if it were imitating... people?

Then Alifa pointed to the bottomless sea: "Gu."

Xiao Zhi guessed: "You mean someone fell into the sea?"

Alifa nodded.

Xiao Zhi asked, "Who?"

Alifa gestured again for a long time, this time he really couldn't understand it at all.

Xiao Zhi asked tentatively, "Lord? No, it shouldn't be the lord."

Xiao Zhi himself overturned his guess. According to logic, he really couldn't imagine the picture of Asen falling into the sea and not getting out. But... can Assen swim? He doesn't seem to have taught Assen to swim before...

"Cuckoo!" Alifa stood up again and made a difficult movement of squatting on the ground and playing with his front legs.

Xiao Zhi instantly understood: "Lance!"

"Goo!" Alifa nodded.

Xiao Zhi stared at the deep sea water: "Are you planning for us to go to rescue Lance together? Isn't the relationship between the two of you bad?"

Alifa used its forelimbs to compare the appearance of a small thing.

Xiao Zhi: "Lance took your baby and fell into the sea?"

Alfa nodded.

Xiao Zhi understood that Lance was probably just incidental, and Alifa mainly wanted to find its treasure.

Xiao Zhi speculated that Lance was fighting with Alifa, and Alifa flew up against Lance and came here. and did not float.

Just tell him to stop secretly playing with Alifa!

Xiao Zhi: "Can we wait for Lance to float by himself? He can't drown anyway."

A small flame of contempt appeared in Alifa's empty eye sockets.

Xiao Zhi sighed: "Okay, I know that someone like Lance can't bulge at all, it's almost like a stone, it can only sink to the bottom..."

The author has something to say: Asen: You and Alifa don't take me to play...

Alifa: Goo~

Xiao Zhi: ...

Asen: It's getting cold, let's stew keel soup.

Alifa:  …

Xiao Zhi:  …
