"monarch……"

Goblin looked at Ye Yan, his heart filled with worry.

He was about to say something, but Ye Yan interrupted him.

"You must leave this forest immediately."

Ye Yan's tone left no room for doubt; his decision had never been so resolute as it was at this moment.

"Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, everyone knelt down in unison.

They didn't understand why Ye Yan wanted them to leave the place where they had once fought together.

Is he going to abandon them?

"If you're going to listen to me, leave immediately."

Ye Yan's voice was cold and firm, and his expression was frighteningly calm.

However, they were able to detect it through the connections between their relatives.

The monarch is truly angry.

"Your Majesty——"

What they want to say.

But Ye Yan had already taken the Blood Lotus and disappeared.

. . .

The stench of rotting pine resin, mixed with the stench of corpses, wafted through the Shenyun Forest.

The emerald-green leaves are curling and turning black at a visible speed.

Eileen's cat ears vibrated rapidly as she dodged the bone arrows. Inside the skull's chest cavity, torn open by sharp claws, dozens of maggots were carrying fragments of bone and reassembling the body.

Jasmine's fire spell exploded into a dazzling display of fireworks in the air, but it only managed to disintegrate the skeleton soldiers for three seconds.

Those moss-covered ribs, as if pulled by invisible threads, were instantly pieced together to form the skeleton of a cavalryman covered in rotting flesh.

"Their spines are inlaid with necromancy!"

She kicked away a skull covered in lividity, and the skull rolled to the roots of a tree and began to sprout.

"How come there are skeletons crawling out of the ground?! What's going on with these skeletons?!"

She had to smash the skulls with her staff, complaining impatiently:

"It's like a cockroach, you can't kill it no matter how hard you try."

Eileen flicked her cat tail, nimbly weaving through the undead army's slaughter.

"This is an undead race, of course it can't kill meow."

Her cat-like eyes gleamed with the excitement of battle, and before she could finish speaking, she had already sliced ​​open the spine of a skeleton knight.

"Is there really no other way?"

The other adventurers gritted their teeth, struggling against the tide of skeletons, and cried out in despair.

The skeletons' claws tore their clothes, and they smashed the skeletons' skulls with their swords, but in an instant the skeletons rose again.

"Of course there is a way. As long as we destroy their souls, we can make them die completely, meow."

Eileen bent down and spun around, kicking a skeleton into a shower of broken bones before landing steadily on her feet.

"But do we have the means here to destroy souls?"

The adventurers fell silent upon hearing Eileen's words.

Most of them are skilled in physical combat and know nothing about attacks on the spiritual level.

Suddenly, the blood-soaked shield warrior grabbed Jasmine's cloak and roared:

"You clearly know a way to burn souls! You used that to kill the Soul Eater last time!"

He pointed to the pendant around the girl's waist that was turning transparent—

Each rhomboid crystal contains a ghostly blue flame.

"Use this to burn them!"

"Are you kidding me?"

Jasmine slapped the other person's hand away, and the pendants collided, producing an ethereal sound that stirred the spirits of the dead.

"These soul flames reduce your lifespan by 30% with each use. Do you even deserve them?"

As she spoke, the tip of her staff had already drawn the outline of a teleportation array, and silver powder scorched marks on the moss.

"Are we just going to wait here to die?"

The skeletons uttered deathly words, climbing the adventurer's body with their rotten limbs. They dared not draw their swords, fearing that cutting down the skeletons would cause them to reform into new enemies.

"We risked our lives to find the magic stone for you! Are you expecting us to die here?"

The adventurers cried out in despair.

"You're the ones waiting to die, you cats!"

Eileen's lithe shadow leaped among the dead trees, and after uttering those words, she had already climbed the tallest rotten tree.

"You see, they have some tricks up their sleeves."

She pointed her fluffy cat tail at Jasmine.

"She's a young lady from 13th Street, unlike you guys."

"hateful!"

The adventurers glared at the girl chanting the incantation and said angrily:

"You want to abandon us and run away?"

"Feed, feed."

Jasmine frowned, and the silver powder swirled in the air, almost materializing the outline of the portal:

"Don't make me sound like a heartless woman... I had no connection with you at all, did I?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jasmine's gaze suddenly fixed on the top of the rotten wood.

Eileen, who had been perched in the tree canopy, had vanished without a trace.

"You damn catwoman...you're running away yourself, and you're criticizing me?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"They're going to abandon us and run away!"

Upon hearing Jasmine's words, the shield warrior also realized what was happening.

He immediately became unwilling.

"We're a team, we've been through so much together, you can't treat us like this!"

"Exactly, we're comrades!"

"Shouldn't teaming up mean going through thick and thin together?"

"companion?"

Jasmine frowned, and the silver powder, guided by the incantation, wove into a silver veil. She said coldly:

"I am not one of your allies."

"It's just a randomly matched team."

"you!"

When moral blackmail failed, the heavily armored knight slammed his sword hilt down at Jasmine's feet.

"Since that's the case..."

He scanned the group, and the three thieves suddenly and in unison scattered, blocking all escape routes.

Amidst the roar of the Gate of the Dead, poisoned crossbow bolts were quietly erected from the pile of dead leaves, their sharp points aimed at Jasmine.

"Then don't blame us for being impolite."

The heavily armored knight's voice was deep and fierce.

They didn't want to die here, so since this woman refused to save them, they wouldn't hesitate to be ruthless.

Jasmine's eyes instantly turned cold.

She never expected these people to be so extreme.

"You are courting death."

Her voice was cold and ruthless.

However, the adventurers were no longer listening.

They just wanted to survive, no matter the cost.

"You guys..."

Jasmine gritted her teeth, and the silver gauze curtain trembled with her anger. The portal that was about to take shape collapsed like a sand painting being swept up by the wind.

"Damn it...you've interrupted my chanting!"

She glared angrily at the adventurers, whose faces were resolute, as if they were prepared to do anything to survive.

Eileen was also affected by the disturbance.

She had intended to escape in the chaos, but the adventurers' actions completely disrupted her plans.

"Damn it!"

Eileen cursed under her breath as she nimbly leaped between the dead trees, trying to create some distance, but the number of undead was increasing, and some had even begun to climb the trees.

"If this continues... we'll die."

Her cat ears drooped, and her tail wagged restlessly.

However, at this critical moment, a sudden cloud of blood mist descended like twilight, instantly enveloping the battlefield.

The blood mist carried a strange suction force, as if it could devour the very essence of all living beings.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

The adventurers panicked and even forgot about their confrontation with each other.

In the blink of an eye, the undead that had surged forward like a tidal wave were swallowed up by the blood mist, leaving not even a trace of their bones. (End of Chapter)
