The orange-red sunset gradually dims, and the birds return to the forest.
The wet green grass suddenly swelled, and then collapsed quickly. A pair of lightless eyes stared blankly at the silent night sky, stretching out a rotten and smelly "hand" with clearly visible bones.
It's hard to say that he is some kind of creature. There is not a single piece of good flesh on his body, and there are "parts" that are constantly falling and leaking sticky juice, and the corpse smells like a corpse. His twisted and broken right leg greatly slows down his progress. This forced him to move in a deformed, half-crouched posture, which looked very much like a ghoul that Lu Yu had seen in fantasy literature.
Wherever he went, the grass withered and beasts and monsters fled in all directions.
On the face where the flesh had rotted to the point of falling off, the mouth opened and closed slightly, the lips moved, but no meaningful words came out.
Sera and Lu Yu clamped down on the hateful-looking monster one after another. They did not attack, but silently covered their noses and observed his condition.
Lu Lu, who was floating in the air with the mist demon, carefully sketched for him and marked all the observable details in the painting.
"What did you feel?" Lu Yu asked Sera.
"As Huo Gu said, only if they find the body again and control it to start moving can they feel the very obvious fluctuations of magic power."
"Not only the magic power fluctuates, but also the movement... This smell is really disgusting. No wonder Maple Blood is so unlucky. They didn't burn the corpses soaked in the disaster. That's it. Instead, they buried the corpses in batches. Around the territory, and reluctant to bury it deeper. @ESSENTIAL\/书馆*First update~~"
Mapleblood lacked a large number of scroll attributes after being immersed in disasters. The Mapleblood clan, which had long been accustomed to ordering scroll attributes to do hard work, naturally would not fill up unknown corpses themselves. After simple burials, many corpses were even killed by wild beasts. The monster dug it out and ate it.
The civil engineering team and the combat team who went out to replenish building materials some time ago saw bones scattered everywhere in the Red Flame Mountains, as well as skulls that were tossed around as toys by monsters.
Lu Yu took out the racial observation manual written by Vanessa, flipped through "Conjectures", and found relevant descriptions of the undead.
The speculation about the undead was done jointly by Vanessa and Sayer. Sayer, who is proficient in spiritual magic, and Vanessa, who is proficient in puppet making, had tried to transfer their consciousness into the doll before they were alive. They studied as puppet masters. The ultimate proposition, the reasons why it could not be completed at that time can be classified into two simple and crude points.
One: Consciousness cannot be transferred under environmental restrictions.
Two: The production level of the dolls is insufficient.
That is to say, in the process of pursuing this difficult proposition, which can be called the first step in extending the life of a magician, Vanessa and Sayer gradually realized that in the future, this plan is feasible. At the same time, if the consciousness can leave the body If the transfer is carried out, does that mean that the "souls" that have always existed in bard stories and a large number of folklore rumors will also be "resurrected" in other ways?
Vanessa used her own knowledge and experience to speculate on "world consciousness" and deduced how Lu Yu's era would give birth to "gods".
Sayer predicted that the soul would resurrect and return to the world, becoming another race. He named it the undead, or it could also be called the resentful spirit depending on the specific circumstances.
In his prophecy, after a certain period of magic turmoil, the gradually changing magic power will give the environment for the appearance of the resentful spirit.
Although limited by the times, many of Sayer and Vanessa's guesses can correspond to the monsters in front of them today.
The resentful spirit surrounded by three people was restless. He threw out his bone arm towards Lu Yu. This powerless blow was blocked by Dawan who stepped forward to block it.
"So weak... With such strength, how did he kill the young vampire of Maple Blood?" Lu Yu turned to look at Sera.
On the way to find and accurately locate the head of the resentful spirit, the three of them have encountered many weak resentful spirits. They are generally like a wisp of mist, hazy, countless times weaker than the fog demon, and are often attacked by sudden attacks. The magical impact will be wiped out.
In a sense, the mist demon who comes from the same origin as them has become the most effective radar. She can always keenly detect the weak fluctuations of the resentful spirits and lead everyone to the scene.
The body of the mist demon only needs to lightly touch these resentful spirits, and they will explode and collapse in an instant, turning into cold magic power again and dispersing everywhere. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

in the air.
Some of the resentful spirits possessed a rotting corpse and began to walk aimlessly. Two of them even killed a deer on the border of the Dawn Territory, constantly feeding flesh and blood into the skull's head. Then it fell from the leaky mouth, as if it was a buggy machine.
The last time I saw such an incongruous and weird scene was inside the moon-carved barrier of Lawrence.
"The new lives born in the early stage of the magic wave are so fragile, because the magic power has not yet reached its peak, and the environment suitable for them has not been fully formed." Lu Lu, who had completed the depiction, waved the painting in his hand to the two of them, "The last magic wave In the early stages, many plants suddenly gained consciousness and began to act, but soon they all withered and died."
Lu Yu used the simplest description of the change: "I can't adapt to the climate."
"It's very vivid." Sera praised this summary, "So this head of resentful spirits follows the vaguely awakened instinct to create opportunities for its fellow species to continue to survive, but that's all. Their environment does not He cannot continue to exist without his official arrival.”
"Lu Yu, let me do it. This is what I should do."
Although she had left the Theocracy and had never believed in any gods, Sera still recited a eulogy to the head of the resentful spirit, which was becoming increasingly restless and constantly losing body parts.
At the end of her eulogy, she said softly: "Rest in peace with the thousands of souls who have passed away... At the end of your destiny, everything you accuse will be granted... This world will change, although it is very slow. But it will. _o_m ”
Sierra opened the box and gave the greatest respect to the "new life" sent by this unpredictable new era.
Thousands of beams of light shot out from the white wooden box, filling Lu Lu and Lu Yu's vision. The resentful spirit standing in the light finally let out a hoarse howl. The shrill voice seemed to be mixed with unwillingness. suffering.
The moment before the white light enveloped the resentful spirit, he stopped moving. A trace of light ignited in his empty eyes, as if he had caught a glimpse of something in the white beam of light. He did not resist, but tried his best to move forward.
The forest that was illuminated like day returned to darkness. In the silent surroundings, the chirping of insects echoed again, and the rustling of the spring breeze through the treetops could be clearly heard.
The Big Bowl dug a big pit for the nameless dead who had only white bones left and no flesh and blood left. This time, no wild beasts and monsters would disturb his sleep.
"How will the snow monster feel when he sees the resentful spirit appear in the world?" Returning to the morning light, Lu Lu looked at the map of the resentful spirit's head and murmured.
The sad and depressed face of the snow monster appeared in Lu Yu's mind. He thought that this living fossil of history who had witnessed too many tragedies might not have too many emotional fluctuations. Decay had already begun to torture his heart. If it weren't for the fire of "pursuing possibilities" that always burned in his heart, he would have died long ago.
As the mist demon wandered around the areas filled with corpses, those weak spirits shattered and dissipated.
Out of careful assessment of the living environment, Lu Yu still informed Fengxue of the news.
The Maple Blood Senate was still full of prejudice against the Dawn Territory, and the description of the resentful spirit made them sneer. Lu Yu expressed his emotional stability about this.
"Originally, I was considering finding a way to let Dusk control a vampire tribe as part of Dawn's leadership, but now it seems that Dusk should just follow me and learn from me. Maple Blood is not worth it."
Seeing that Mapleblood was completely obsessed with him and wanted to go against the leader of Chenxi in everything, Sera also gave up on her training plan.
"There is no need to be angry. Maple Blood will play to death. Even if their blood clan leader is very capable, the Senate is too mentally retarded." Lu Yu consoled him.
Sera looked sideways at Lu Yu, her lips raised slightly, she snorted and left quickly.
Recently, most of my conversations with Sera have ended in this way. The two have become known rivals in love, and they have both entered the final stage of charge. Under the glare of each other, they are both determined to confront each other head-on. A showdown.
It's just that Sera's approach seemed a bit childish. Unexpectedly, she was as immature as herself in terms of emotions, and she showed a different greenness from ordinary interactions with others.
"You can never surpass the surprise I gave Lulu."

The passionate Lu Yu was soon swollen by the reality. When he tried to make soda with lemon, baking soda and fruit pulp, he failed to see the attractive small bubbles appearing in the sealed cup, even if he shook it vigorously. To no avail.
"Has the shelf life passed too far..." Lu Yu sighed.
Making soda to satisfy Lulu's taste buds was the most suitable way he could think of, but the key step got stuck.
After much thought, Lu Yu decided to try his luck.
After going to the kitchen and making a fried meatball that Lu Lu liked, Lu Yu knocked on the door of Lu Lu's room as if nothing had happened.
Lu Lu, who was writing and drawing on the scroll, looked up and saw the croquettes on the tray. He was startled for a moment, and then he smiled happily.
"handwashing."
After being glared at by Lu Yu, Lu Lu obediently reached out to the small water droplet accompanying Lu Yu and scrubbed her hands full of medicinal powder clean. After doing all this, the small water droplet had turned dark green.
Lu Yu felt a headache when he looked at the messy tableware that he had helped tidy up not long ago. Although Lu Lu had gotten rid of Tanya's shadow and gradually returned to the normal growth track, his life was still in a mess.
It can only be said that fortunately now she no longer needs to care too much about these trivial matters and can focus wholeheartedly on the field she is passionate about.
Glancing at the content on the scroll, Lu Yu recognized the densely packed characters, but he couldn't understand them when put together. However, the illustrations on the side attracted his interest.
A little magician who looked very similar to Lu Lu held up a slender staff, pointed at the content framed by her, and said seriously: "This is the key point."
Regarding what seemed to be safety issues in the synthesis of potions, Lu Lu creatively drew a series of images of the little magician being blown to pieces. _o_m
In the end, he wore a tattered mage robe and a mage hat that looked like it had been chopped off, and issued various warnings in a serious voice.
Lu Yu became interested. Although he couldn't read the text, he understood the pictures.
"This is…"
"Oh, it's just right. Please give me a reference. How does this design look like?" Lu Lu put two big meatballs in his mouth, puffed his mouth and came to Lu Yu, almost leaning on his arms and pointing at the scroll with a fork. "The two apprentices felt that they were too stupid to keep up with the ideas, so they hoped that I could write down the notes so that they could read them anytime and anywhere and remember them easily."
"You have also criticized my teaching method before..." Lulu smiled awkwardly, "In short, I don't understand the understanding of ordinary people, so I also decided to change it. Instead of boring words, let the teaching content Make it more vivid, I think they can remember the content faster..."
As he spoke, Lu Lu, who was leaning against Lu Yu, raised his head a little, then carefully turned sideways, observing Lu Yu's expression.
"What do you think...if I do this...?"
Lu Yu didn't answer for a long time, but looked through the scrolls in concentration.
The selection of materials, the blending of materials, the key timings of blending, and the precautions for mixing and blending... The pictures are simple and easy to understand, and the lively little people are jumping around in the scroll.
Lulu was too nervous to chew hard and slowly put the plate back on the table.
"Lu Lu..." Lu Yu pressed her shoulder, "If my former chemistry teacher were you, my grades must be good!"
These vivid pictures greatly increased the relevance of the learner's memory. Just at a glance, even if Lu Yu knew nothing about potions, he could still recall a series of characters on several exquisite scrolls, as if they were engraved in his mind. .
"Why didn't I expect that? You have a natural advantage in this regard!"
Lu Lu's drawing was excellent, and Lu Yu knew it since the beginning of the description in the summoning manual, but he never introduced this skill to the production of teaching materials.
If the instruction manuals for Dawn Leaders were all conducted in this way, it would surely lower the learning threshold for many people, right?
Vanessa's "Race Observation Manual" was originally what they planned to promote. If it was accompanied by some illustrations...
Lu Lu smiled sheepishly after being praised: "I also had an idea. Since you said yes, it proves that I have indeed chosen the right direction."
"By the way...you came here to see me because there is something important. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

? "Lu Lu continued to eat the meatballs contentedly.
Only then did Lu Yu remember his purpose. First update@
He took out the bag of baking soda and asked: "Although it seems a bit overwhelming, can you help me see if there are any similar items in the potions and materials? If not, it doesn't matter. I still have some ways to think of. ".
