This isn't a souls-like game at all.

The dead man with a face full of flesh whispered in a deep voice:

"But now, I am just a dead person who has been cursed for ten thousand years and has lost all emotions. I am cold and empty inside."

The white-haired deceased who was about to leave vaguely sensed something. He stopped and turned to look at the light curtain.

"Even if this body withers and becomes filthy, the meaning of my existence as Xiao Boer, as a member of the abyssal dead, remains loyalty and duty..."

The remaining ten dead people left in the control room also gathered silently at this moment. They stood not far behind Xiao Bo'er, becoming the silent background board on the light screen in Ye Yiyi's mind.

"Loyalty to the land kingdom of Leftgard is the duty that citizens of that kingdom uphold."

Xiao Bo'er looked up at Ye Yiyi's white coat, which had been transformed from a royal attire. His dead eyes were fixed on the golden collar ornament called "Golden Dragon Holding a Branch" that was shining brightly on the towering white collar.

"Even now, our kingdom has fallen, and the king who led us forward has disappeared..."

In the past, it was designed by the Flower Moon Eternal Radiance, one of the two kings who sat on the throne of Leftgard. It later became the sacred symbol of the land kingdom Leftgard.

Shaw turned his eyes away, fearing that his filthiness would sully the sacred emblem.

"...But we will not give up hope of restoring our nation, just like His Highness the Universal Light who single-handedly restored his country."

Xiao Bo'er whispered, lowered his head, and stiffly performed the ancient etiquette one by one.

The many dead behind him also bowed their heads to him and performed the same ritual.

"Master Michaela, owner of the workshop and reconstructor of the Folding Tower, you are the one chosen by fate. We will accept your leadership until the day when time and fate free us from the shackles of death and curse."

"you……"

Ye Yiyi looked at the dead bodies in the light curtain, and felt a little sad when he saw them all bowing to him at the same time.

If the Universal Light could see into the future, would she have seen this as well?

"But...but! Xiao Boer, you can't do this..."

Just when Ye Yiyi was about to say something, Yudenna's low and hoarse voice with a crying tone suddenly came from the side.

Ye Yiyi was suddenly stunned, and the dead people behind the light curtain also raised their heads.

The little goblin flapped its wings and flew to the table, crying and speaking to the people on the screen.

"His Highness... His Highness... He is the new king, recognized by the Goblin Code. If you pledge allegiance to His Highness... isn't that tantamount to betraying Leftgard?"

"The new king..."

Xiao Boer repeated the word in a low voice, and the white-haired deceased nodded and spoke calmly.

"As expected, I knew that although Yudena often gets confused, she would never say the wrong thing on such an issue."

"Yudena..."

Ye Yiyi couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, his handsome face full of speechlessness.

Little thing! You are really good!

He had managed to get away with it with great difficulty before, and now you actually bring it up in front of them?

This isn't something worth shouting about, okay?

This kind of thing should at least be discussed after he has actually and truly killed a cursed king, okay?

"Accepting the leadership of His Majesty the New King does not mean swearing allegiance to His Majesty the New King."

The white-haired deceased suddenly said.

"Yudnanana, have you been on too much of a spree and mistaken the White Feather Knights' tactics for what we are doing?"

"???"

Ye Yiyi suddenly looked at Yudenna, who was crying and laughing, scratching the back of her head embarrassedly, her face full of horror.

"Leaves? What are they?"

"Huh? It's Fairy Mint?"

"Oh, that's okay."

Ye Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief, took out a piece of fairy mint and stuffed it into the little fairy's arms, raising his chin to the side.

"Go ahead and have some fun."

"Wow! It's Fairy Mint!! Thank you, Your Highness!"

The little thing burst into laughter and happily flew away while holding a green leaf that was almost as big as her.

"Then let's leave it at that for now. As for the new king, don't tell anyone about it..."

Ye Yiyi looked down at the "Space Field Parallel Application" translated by the light curtain, reached out and tapped on it, approving this "written document" which was the first to be reviewed since he became the owner of the workshop.

"After the spatial field is connected in parallel, the Folding Tower has established a stable two-way spatial channel with the King's Workshop. You can now enter and exit the Folding Tower and the workshop at any time."

Shaw said.

"In addition, my current suggestion is to seal off the road leading to the surface from the workshop and conduct a comprehensive inspection and disinfection of all contaminants inside the workshop to ensure the safety of the workshop itself."

"You're much more familiar with the workshop's rules and regulations than I am... Okay, I've sealed off all the passages and escorted the guests trapped here out."

Ye Yi Yi compared the content on the workshop's main control screen with the translation screen. After some extremely complicated and tedious operations, he stood up.

"Also, Xiao Bo'er, the head of the warehouse logistics department, I have restored the original workshop permissions of all of you deceased. It's best to leave the things you mentioned to yourselves, except for those that require my help."

"Okay, I've received the certificate for permission restoration."

Xiao Bo'er nodded, then looked to his side. A gorgeous platinum-colored door appeared out of thin air. Then the door opened and Ye Yiyi walked out.

He looked at the golden gate behind him, and then at the expressionless Xiao Bo'er and sighed.

"How convenient! The ultimate authority is truly the best. I can open the door wherever I want..."

Shaw and the other dead who were still present bowed slightly, saluted him together, and called him "Your Highness".

"Let's skip this formality for now. I don't want you to stop working and greet me when you see me coming. Wouldn't that just waste time?"

"it is good."

The dead nodded simply and went on with their business without any hesitation.

"How is the dung beetle now?"

Ye Yiyi asked casually, then walked to a floor-to-ceiling observation window and looked down at Xiti City in the heavy snow.

"The dung beetle is still in its cocoon."

Tong En, the white-haired deceased, who was also the deputy director of the Life Creation Laboratory and a high-level craftsman, was answering from his seat at this moment.

"Your Highness, while you were away, I frequently used my induction field to monitor the changes in the dung beetle."

"Now, the strange energy detected within it, the same as that of the Autumn Shell Locust, has matured... Although I haven't examined it in detail, I can make a preliminary assessment that its overall strength rivals that of the Future Beak."

"Rivaling Futurebeak?"

Ye Yiyi was stunned for a moment and quickly turned around.

"Are you sure? It only feathered once, and it already has the strength of its future beak?"

"...I also think this strength is a bit low, but the details can only be known after the dung beetle has fully emerged and undergone detailed testing."

"???"

Ye Yiyi suddenly widened her eyes and stared at the serious white-haired dead man.

No? Dude!

Being able to strengthen to the level of Future Beak, this is still considered low?!

The white-haired deceased looked down at the light curtain in front of him and shook his head slightly.

"My previous estimate was wrong. That dung beetle had previously been tempered by various powers and later appeared to have broken through the upper limit of its evolution. It already possesses a very extraordinary foundation. This metamorphosis may continue for some time until all its potential is fully tapped..."

Tong En looked up and looked around as he spoke.

"Your Highness, I need to apply for the use of the Creation of Life Experiment Area. It is well-equipped and will allow me to better observe the changes in the dung beetles."

"This……"

Ye Yiyi's expression froze.

Create a life experimental area?

You mean the place that was burned by the flames of universal love, filled with the corpses of a large number of world-destroying insects, and messed up by the earthworms?

"That place is in a bad state right now. There might still be some World Destroyer insects left... I suggest you wait until the workshop is cleaned up before going there."

Ye Yiyi said casually, changing the subject in time.

"Take me to see them."

"……it is good."

Under Tong'en's guidance, Ye Yiyi found the white cocoon ball.

However, the cocoon ball, which was originally only the size of a basketball, has now become an extra-large cocoon ball with a diameter of two meters.

"So big?"

Ye Yiyi was stunned and thought to himself, if the cocoon is broken out, will the dung beetle still be able to stay on his shoulder?

Could it be that he took Virgil's job?

Ye Yiyi greeted the little insect man who helped take care of the dung beetles, then called the little fish guarding here, and walked towards the gate with the Highlander Timothy.

"Sir Michaela, is there any progress on the folding tower?"

"progress?"

Ye Yiyi smiled mysteriously at Timothy.

"You'll find out later."

Soon, they came to an open platform on the middle level of the folding tower. Timothy looked at the heavy snow, then turned around blankly and looked up at the rainbow-colored giant tower.

I don’t know if it was because he was cold or because he was frightened.

Timothy stood there and watched for a long time, until the small fish stretched out its tentacles to wrap it up, and the highlander suddenly came to his senses.

"Is this the Folding Tower? Wait, where is this place? I remember we weren't originally in..."

"Just think of it as magic."

Ye Yiyi said casually, lowered his head to look at the entire city, and then flew towards somewhere.

The little fish spread its tentacles that covered the sky and followed behind him, like some kind of terrifying monster.

At this moment, the city was still in uproar, and everyone was shocked and frightened by the huge creature that suddenly appeared above their heads.

Some of the less courageous mercenaries and merchants even knelt and worshipped before the giant tower, as if they regarded the tower as some kind of god or the incarnation of some great being.

Therefore, when Ye Yiyi came down from the tower with the little fish, he was immediately discovered by the people at the scene, which caused an uproar.

In a tall tavern next to a building that resembled the ancient Roman Colosseum, where the steel airship was suspended, Ye Yi glanced at the nervous knights of all kinds standing around, and landed on the empty street under their uneasy gazes.

"Your Highness..."

Bao Xia came forward with the vertical eye on his forehead flashing red, looking at the Hundred Hands Fish behind him with a strange expression, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

"You didn't tell me you had a star as a pet?"

"Did I not tell you, or did you not ask?"

Ye Yiyi raised his eyebrows, then looked past the knight and at the old man behind him who was wearing the armor of the Knight of All Beings.

"Your Highness Michaela!"

The tall knight with white hair and beard and a body like a bear sang an aria in his voice, bowed deeply and saluted him.

"Your Highness is welcome to your fortress and city-state, Xiti City."

Chapter 648 Where are you going?

"Your Highness is welcome to your fortress and city-state, Xiti City!"

When the old knight said this in public, Ye Yiyi knew that it would be impossible for Michaela's name not to spread.

As expected, all kinds of discussions arose among the crowd watching from afar at the edge of the street.

"Mikaela? Could she be the legendary god-killing magician?"
