If it's a fake, then you better hope you never meet me again."

Saying this, Kane transformed into a golden light and flew towards the sky.

Landed on Israel's back in the sky.

"Let's go, we should leave here first."

The golden cage trapping the undead below began to dissipate as Kane left, and the large hemispherical barrier in the sky also started to faintly disappear.

The few undead creatures looked up at the sky, at the distant red line. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

They fell into a brief silence.

"Almost died."

"You already died."

"Then I almost died again."

The Eye Demon and Ghost, the two undead, spoke to each other, fully aware under that attack.

If it landed on them, they would've instantly vanished, not even a trace left.

Skeletons and Zombies seemed fine; they were confident they could withstand that attack.

Even though their ranks among the golden-level undead were just a few places higher than the two.

But those few ranks might as well be celestial moisture, perhaps until their souls dissipate, they might never reach it.

"What do we do now?" the Zombie asked the Skeleton beside it, who was still gazing at the sky.

Upon hearing him, Skeleton lowered its head and looked at the crystal stone in its hand.

"Find a place to wait for contact. That human's strength was so formidable, and the attack was so conspicuous; perhaps we should ask the undead lord here if they know anything."

After hearing him, these undead could only nod; there were indeed no better options now since who could've thought they'd meet their target right upon arrival.

And the strength was so powerful, seemingly intent on taking them all on.

Besides, the three undead who gave them coordinates also seemed dead at this person's hands.

To avoid further surprises, the four of them could only band together during this period.

Meanwhile, Kane and his companions had already left the area to reach a relatively safe place.

"Just drop me here. I need to go to the Guild Hall; there's something I have to do."

"No problem, President." Hearing Kane's words, Israel nodded and then dove downwards.

Stopping abruptly at the ground.

Once Kane had disembarked, he bid him farewell, drawing a red trail before departing again.

And Kane also disappeared from the location.

Being able to enter the guild space? Seems those four undead didn't intend on eliminating him.

And before entering the guild, Kane had already communicated with Lilulu through the BB machine.

So when he arrived at the Guild Hall, Kane began waiting at Longbei's bar.

It wasn't long before Lilulu appeared in the Guild Hall.

She quickly flashed onto Kane's shoulder.

"Indeed, Lilulu is indispensable, huh?"

Hearing Lilulu's words on his shoulder, Kane rolled his eyes helplessly.

"Lilulu, go out and find Facundo, ask about those undead; they claim to be loyal to him, can we trust them?"

After hearing Kane's words and looking at the contract book Kane took out.

"Just this? Alright."

Lilulu accepted the contract book reluctantly, holding it in her hands.

"Actually sending Lilulu on an errand."

Rambling, Lilulu disappeared from the scene.

Kane could only shake his head helplessly and continue chatting with Burton.

While waiting for Lilulu to return.

Approximately half an hour later, Lilulu came back.

"Lilulu's here! Here, this is for you."

Lilulu appeared directly before Kane and tossed the item she was holding into his hand.

"What's this?"

Kane examined the bone fragment, but it wasn't any equipment or magic item.

Through the Divine Gaze, he could see a trace of aura wrapped around it, presumably from Facundo.

Upon hearing Kane's question, Lilulu hugged her hands and said, "I don't know. Facundo said you should give the item you obtained to those four undead and sign a new contract with them.

If the bone fragment disappears, then the signing is successful and trustworthy; if it doesn't disappear, then it's not trustworthy."

After listening to Lilulu's explanation, Kane nodded and put the bone fragment away.

Pinching Lilulu's cheek, he smiled and said, "Thanks, I'll treat you to dinner when I return."

"Who needs your dinner? Your cooking is horrible; it would be better if Sister Kreya treated us."

Kane waved to Lilulu, smiling: "If I treat, it's just like Sister Kreya treating us; there's no difference between us. Goodbye, see you later!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kane disappeared from the location.

"Nananana!"

Lilulu stuck her tongue out at the disappearing Kane before angrily vanishing from the spot.

Burton at the bar chuckled watching the scene.

"Ah, youngsters."

Didn't expect Lilulu to reach the tri-color level so quickly; truly remarkable.

Burton couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Didn't imagine that even at his old age, he'd still be broadening his horizons.

Back at the original place, Kane produced a crystal stone identical to the one he had given to that Skeleton.

Inputting a bit of magic power, he transmitted a message to the crystal stone in Skeleton's hand.

This was a small gadget Kane created, simulating the BB machine, enabling contact within a certain range.

Although not as grand as the BB machine.

It was still somewhat serviceable.

Meanwhile,

On the previous wasteland, those 4 undead were slowly walking.

Looking for a resting place to await Kane's contact.

The leading Skeleton felt the crystal stone shaking in its hand, opening its palm.

A beam shot out from it.

Attracting the attention of the few undead creatures.

On it was written: Input magic power into the crystal stone, throw it out, then follow the stone to find me.

Reading the message, the undead exchanged glances.

"So soon? He barely left, didn't he?" the Zombie remarked.

The Eye Demon then said, "First, he can easily contact Lord Facundo, even in a short time, he still managed to confirm it.

Second, he went back to gather more people for an ambush, aiming to deal with us."

After hearing Eye Demon's words, these undead fell silent, contemplating possibilities and their next moves.

Then, Skeleton grasped the crystal stone in hand, infused it with magic power, and threw it out.

Before the nearby undead could ask questions, he said, "I'll go alone, keep your distance from me; if there's no problem, I'll signal you."

The few undead who wanted to say something could only keep their mouths shut.

"Alright, let's go with this plan."

This indeed seemed like the best option; they all thought of it immediately but no one wanted to be the vanguard.

Skeleton, believing itself the strongest and initiating this venture, decided to take on the risk.

The thrown crystal stone began flying in a direction ahead.

"I'm heading off first, follow behind me when you can."

Saying this, Skeleton followed after the crystal stone, gradually speeding up until it disappeared from the undead's sight.

"We should follow,"

Zombie said, joining the pursuit, Ghost and Eye Demon close behind.

The two undead floated mid-air.

Ghost asked Eye Demon, "Do you feel anything? Is going there dangerous?"

Compared to Zombie and Skeleton, their strength was weaker, so what may not be dangerous for the other two could be deadly for them.

They had to be extra cautious.

Regarding Ghost's question, Eye Demon simply shook its head.

Upon seeing this, Ghost relaxed: "No danger? That's good."

"No, it's because the enemy's too strong so there's simply no sense of danger."

"Ah~"

"Ah~"

Being weak really is a sin.

Without rejoining under Facundo, there's no hope of getting stronger.

The two downcast undead drifted at the back.

Since Kane hadn't traveled far from the original spot, soon enough, he detected the presence of Skeleton within his sensing range.

Seeing only the Metal Skeleton following the crystal stone.

"Just one, huh? Looks like they're worried about an ambush."

This increased a bit their credibility.

But whether they're truly trustworthy would soon become apparent.
