Chapter 784: Chapter 447: Ambush!_1

In the House of the Deceased, Silver Coin Aleksandr recorded the conversation between the Pufferfish Men and the Vice-President of the Guild of the Dead, Lioado. They were preparing to leak the news of the Heaven-Reaching Divine Tree to bait and expose those who were insider trading.

Everyone was continuously on guard, unsure what kind of bait they were going to release. Now that the bait was out, they’d see who would bite. Regardless, Silver Coin Aleksandr, the real mastermind behind this, would not fall into the trap.

Putting this matter aside, everyone busied themselves with their work. With enough manpower available, the suspension bridge across the canyon was successfully built within three days.

On a related note, the team continued to refine the road from Rapids Fortress to the bridge, making it passable for carriages. There was no need to emulate Labu’s group who had to abandon their horses and push and pull the goods themselves.

This was a massive task that couldn’t be done in a short time, unless they got Ange to help.

But Silver Coin Aleksandr wouldn’t do that. If Ange did all the work, what would the refugees do? Sit around and cause trouble?

Now everyone has food and drink. With a god-level healer like Ange present, anyone with an injury, provided they weren’t dead, could be saved.

Therefore, with no worries, everyone is hard at work once they’ve eaten, and the project progresses very quickly.

Within three to five days, Rapids Fortress changed a lot. The terraced fields outside the city are burgeoning with life, and the city is clean and sanitary. Everyone is busy, and morale is high.

Ange has learned how to control the Undead Guards in the cemetery and has summoned a group of them, scattered at every corner of the Rapids Fortress.

Those who haven’t experienced chaos will not understand the value of these Undead Guards. Seeing them around, everyone feels more secure.

Once the food supply is ensured, Rapids Fortress and Northern Wind City behind the mountains will become safe and happy places, precious in a world where order crumbles.

Ange has started to farm on the cliffs. Since the previous terraces are fully planted, and if he’s got nothing else to do, he might as well make some more fields to sow.

This undertaking would be a massive investment of time and energy for ordinary people, even regular wizards, but for Ange, it is part of his daily life. The low-level terrain disruption technique is very suitable, while higher-level magic techniques are not practical.

Once the ground is leveled, Ange will descend to the base where he will find fertile land to dig out soil and bring it to the Divine Realm.

Who would have ever thought that Ange would turn the Divine Realm into a place to store soil?

Utilizing the Divine Realm for soil storage has one major benefit: all soul-bearing creatures in the soil will quickly die after the Divine Realm is closed, leaving behind the cleanest soil without insects, parasites, bacterial spores, and so on.

Although this process also destroys beneficial bacteria in the soil, it doesn’t matter because Ange can regulate it back.

Once he lands in the fertile soil, the Little Zombie begins digging. Once filled, he closes the Divine Realm, returns to the terraces, opens the Divine Realm, and begins digging again—super-efficient.

“Ah, using the Divine Realm for soil transportation, how can the efficiency not be high?” Negris scoffed at Ange’s wasteful usage.

Suddenly, a loud and clear cry came from afar, and after a while, five Bone Dragons slowly descended from the direction where the sound came from. The ease and slowness in their movement clearly indicated they had no hostile intentions.

The five Bone Dragons began to circle above the cemetery.

Silver Coin Durkon had rushed over when he heard the loud cry. Watching the approach of the Bone Dragons, he questioned, “Are these the Bone Dragon Knights from five days ago? Why are there only five of them left?”

“They probably split up. If any of them had died, the remaining ones wouldn’t be so leisurely,” Negris responded.

“It seems to be a courtesy—alerting in advance, approaching slowly, clearly expressing goodwill. These Bone Dragon Knights are quite polite.” Durkon praised, for he enjoyed courteousness.

The Bone Dragons began to circle, and a voice rose from the back of a Bone Dragon: “Hello, we bear no malice.”

After finishing his sentence, a Knight dressed in majestic Soul Armor jumped down from the back of a Bone Dragon. He floated down like a feather and gently landed on the ground.

“Hello, I’m Captain Nevin of the Spirit Dragon Knights. I apologize for my indiscretion in coming here uninvited,” Captain Nevin said, removing his helmet to reveal a youthful human face. After finishing his sentence, he clapped his boots together, hit his chest, and made a knight’s salute.

“Hello, hello, Captain Nevin is it? Welcome, welcome, we are honored by your visit. It is truly an honor,” Silver Coin Aleksandr greeted enthusiastically, showering him with compliments until he looked a bit embarrassed.

Days ago, the Bone Dragon Knights stayed in Northern Wind City to recuperate. Feiwo had entertained them and had reported in detail to Silver Coin Aleksandr, so they were not unfamiliar with the Bone Dragon Knights.

But they didn’t expect the leader to be a young and naive boy who flushed with a few polite words.

Faced with such a naive young man, the God of Fraudsters effortlessly took control of the situation: “Captain Nevin, do you have any specific reason for your visit to Rapids Fortress?”

“Oh, yes, we are here to borrow troops. A rebellion has taken place in Iron Sand City which is fifty kilometers from here. Someone has killed the City Lord, closed the city gates, and is killing the residents of the city. I hope to borrow some of your Undead Guards to quell the rebellion in Iron Sand City,” Captain Nevin replied.

“Borrow Undead Guards?” Everyone was taken aback, and Silver Coin Aleksandr asked, “Iron Sand City doesn’t have Undead Guards?”
