The Growth of a God

Chapter 95: Peace among all races and flourishing of all flowers (25)

In the blink of an eye, two hundred years have passed.

Due to Li Hao's preference, this was just an insignificant period of time in this world of mountains and seas where most people are immortal.

However, for the City of Bones, these two hundred years are enough time for it to undergo earth-shaking changes.

"Are those the Crows?"

Looking up at the sky, Aya looked at the giant crows flying overhead from time to time, and asked in a low voice with some envy.

Today, the City of Bones has become a huge trade transit point.

All goods transported to the shore by the mermaids will be transferred through the City of Bones to other places on land.

And those Crows were the flying race that chose to join the Hundred Races Alliance a month ago and thus took on the role of transportation and security.

It is said that those giant black birds have the power to drag an object ten times their own size.

When they spread their wings, the huge shadow is enough to cover the ground within a radius of more than ten meters.

More importantly, the Yayan clan does not believe in the Creator, but the Huo Dou under the Creator that symbolizes the glory of the God of Fire.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the elders of the Yayan tribe only recently agreed to Gu Sheng's request and sent the younger members of their tribe to the City of Bones.

"Well, that's Crow Disgust."

Covered in a black robe, Ak calmly stroked the bone-born beast beside him.

"But I advise you not to get too close to them. I heard that getting close to them will bring you misfortune."

Ak was not exaggerating. In any case, many people who initially approached the Crow-Hated Skeleton People out of curiosity had encountered misfortune.

Fortunately, the corpse people were able to withstand the hardships, and those misfortunes did not have much impact on them.

However, the rumor that Crow Yan would bring misfortune spread.

"After all, they believe in Huodou, the god of fire who can bring disaster and misfortune."

Ali, who had quietly appeared behind Ake and Aya at some point, explained with a smile.

"After you came back this time, do you feel that the City of Bones has become more prosperous?"

After Aya came of age, Ake took her to other places for training, and only returned to the City of Bones not long ago.

This is a tradition that gradually formed by the Skeleton Clan after the undead left.

This training period may be long or short, and it is a process in which the Skeleton People gradually put into practice the knowledge they have learned in the City of Bones.

It has been thirty years since Ake and Aya left.

Even among the skeleton people, such a long training is extremely rare.

"Prosperity?"

"If you mean the buildings that are built on the surface, it is indeed prosperous."

The Skeleton People are accustomed to building their homes underground.

But after gradually coming into contact with hundreds of races, various forms of "buildings" began to appear on the surface of the originally empty City of Bones.

From the more traditional civil structures to the towering trees...

When Ake and Aya walked along the main road to their own district, they had already seen many districts and residents with different styles.

"There's no other way. This is the price that must be paid for 'peace'."

Tilting his head in some distress, Ali said in a rather proud tone.

A race of birds that live in trees...

A beast race that is used to building fortresses...

An amphibious race that must live by the water...

There are many members of hundreds of tribes who choose to come to the City of Bones, and the Skeleton People have also spent a lot of effort to build buildings that are suitable for their living environment.

After seeing the exquisite buildings built by the Skeleton People for themselves, some races even brought these architectural models back to their own tribes, which in turn improved the civilization and progress of the members of the hundreds of tribes. "Are we... doing the same thing as the undead?"

At this moment, Aya, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked in confusion.

The undead once influenced the skeletons little by little in the same way, and eventually made them realize the concepts of race and civilization.

Although the methods used by the skeleton people today are somewhat different, the results are similar.

"Well, it seems to be true?"

Ali couldn't help shaking his skeleton, and just as he was about to say something else, he was interrupted by Ake.

"Did you call us back this time just to let us see the prosperity of the City of Bones?"

Turning his attention to his former prophet, Ak knew her dark and cunning nature better than anyone else.

If nothing had happened in the City of Bones, she would never have called me back so easily.

"Something did happen."

His expression suddenly became calm, and Ali said in a heavy tone.

"Gu Sheng... is going to die."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell into silence.

Aya opened her mouth in shock, and her bony jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Although Ak appeared to be a little stronger, the shock in his heart was no less than that of Aya.

"How can it be!?"

With a tone of suppressed anger, Ak's inner shock turned into rage.

"Who did it? Which race attacked the leader?"

Without hiding the murderous intent in his heart, Ak has begun to think about the price he would have to pay to wipe out a member of a hundred tribes.

Even if this would make Gu Sheng's efforts over the past two hundred years come to naught, Ak didn't care.

Weighing the pros and cons is what leaders and prophets need to consider, and the only thing Ake can do is to avenge his leader.

"No, it has nothing to do with the members of the Hundred Clans."

Shaking his head decisively to deny Ake's guess, Ali explained with a wry smile.

"In fact, this is why we chose not to make this information public..."

“Because it does sound incredible.”

"The leader of the Skeleton Clan, who is closest to the undead, actually said that he is going to die."

After a brief pause, Ali's voice gradually became helpless.

"But it is a fact that Gu Sheng is close to the end of his life."

"We didn't notice it at first, but Gu Sheng had spent so much energy to realize his ideal of 'peace among all races'."

"Even if we can use 'bone replacement technology' to replace its damaged body, the wear and tear of its mental strength cannot be compensated by simply replacing its body structure."

Staring at Ali in silence, this was the first time that Ak realized the "vulnerability" of the skeleton people.

He didn't die on the battlefield, nor did he die in an accident. Instead, he died from exhaustion like a living creature...

"Leader, how long has it been since you went into hibernation?"

Faced with Ak's question, Ali lowered his head silently.

"I've never seen a bone growing dormant."
