1449 Fear of Death
“Soul bonfire…”
In the darkness not far away, Fang Heng muttered to himself. He raised his head and drank a bottle of potion, summoning another batch of Ice Bones.
In any case, the Bones’ summoning spell had almost no cooldown. It only required some mental strength to be released.
This time, Fang Heng also tested the strength and potential of the Bones’ summoning skill. Its strength was top-notch, and so was its potential!
As long as he had enough branded skeletal creatures in his sea of consciousness, he could summon a large number of them with a wave of his hand as his basic attribute gradually increased in the future!
The Ice Bones had a natural fear of the soul fire and would be continuously injured if they got close.
Fang Heng didn’t force the Bones to continue. He watched as Gano’s team was gradually surrounded and slowed down their pace of attack.
He would grind them to death slowly.
Fang Heng was very familiar with using summoned creatures to fight. In the past, he had relied on his zombie clones, but now, he had replaced them with the Ice Bones.
A familiar recipe, a familiar taste.
Seeing that the enemy was completely trapped, Fang Heng hid his body and immediately transformed into a bat. With the help of the green soul stone, he bypassed the layers of undead creatures and approached the group of people from the Ed Chamber of Commerce.
“Fang Heng!”
When Elisa saw Fang Heng flying over in his bat form not far away, she immediately greeted him in a low voice with joy on her face.
Fang Heng returned to his human form and stood in front of everyone. He looked at Elisa and the others.
“Looks like we made it in time. Is everyone okay?”
“Too timely! Thank you so much. Luckily, you came over and saved us.” Elisa’s attention was on the Ice Bones as she asked, “Fang Heng, were you the one who summoned those Ice Bones…”
“Yes, I still have to thank you for your skill books.”
Fang Heng nodded and glanced at the area behind him from the corner of his eyes. He continued, “They’re trapped and won’t be able to deal with us for a while. I’ll take you guys away first.”
Even though they had already guessed most of it, the members of the Rand Chamber of Commerce were still deeply shocked when they saw Fang Heng come over.
How long did he take to master the Bones’ summoning spell?
He had already learned to this extent?
“Alright.”
Wendy quickly came back to her senses. She looked away from Fang Heng and told her team to get ready to leave.
“Quick, let’s move. We’re preparing to retreat.”
“Yes!”
After escaping danger, the entire team was a little excited. They immediately moved to disperse the undead creatures that gathered around them and packed up their equipment and supplies to extinguish the soul bonfire.
While everyone was preparing, Fang Heng nodded to Wendy and Elisa and whispered, “I have something to ask you.”
Wendy nodded and followed Fang Heng to the side.
Wendy and Elisa looked at each other after listening to Fang Heng’s account of what happened in the depths of the shady line.
“The people you saw should be from the Culodi Trading Company and the other major trading companies.”
He was certain that the target of the Culodi Chamber of Commerce was the huge soul crystal.
Moreover, the stone was related to the shady line of the Frost Hell.
“This stone was left behind by the great-grandfather and has always been kept in the attic of the warehouse. Ever since the great-grandfather passed away, the attic was completely sealed off. A few months ago, the warehouse was ready to be demolished and rebuilt.”
Wendy pursed her lips and recalled, “Previously, a few guilds wanted to buy the stone at a high price. I felt that it was strange at that time and suspected that the stone might have unknown value, so I didn’t agree. Now, it seems that it’s related to the shady line.”
“Yes.”
Fang Heng hummed softly.
He thought to himself that Wendy didn’t know about the stone and its true function.
Fang Heng continued to ask, “Think about it carefully. Did you find anything else when you found the stone?”
“Ah, I remember now!” Elisa clapped her hands and said, “There’s also a stone slab that was placed in the same box as the stone. There are some traces of a magic array on it, and it’s a little old. I didn’t pay much attention to it at the time. This type of magic array is very common. The stone slab is still stored in the new warehouse. You can find it when you go back.”
Fang Heng scratched his head. It was a little troublesome. The magic array on the stone slab might be related to the shady line. Unfortunately, it was not convenient for him to go back and take a look under such circumstances.
“Fang Heng, it’s not difficult to know how to use the stone.”
Wendy looked at Gano’s team, who was surrounded by Ice Bones, and whispered, “The leader is Gano, a scion of a noble family from the Culodi Chamber of Commerce. He is usually extremely arrogant in his dealings with the world, and his abilities are limited.”
“What?”
“He is very afraid of death. We should be able to get something out of him.”
“Alright.”
Fang Heng looked at the trapped Gano not far away and nodded to show that he understood.
Someone who was afraid of death?
It was indeed an advantage for him.
Two guides from the Chamber of Commerce walked over and reported, “President, the team is ready. We can set off now.”
Fang Heng looked at Wendy and said, “How about this, you guys take the soul stone and leave first. The Culuodi Chamber of Commerce has joined forces with several other major Chambers of Commerce to attack you. They have already shed all pretense of cordiality. It is no longer safe for you to stay in Frost Hell. You guys leave Frost Hell and leave the rest to me.”
“Good!”
Wendy made a prompt decision and waved her hand to signal the team to set off. She nodded and said, “You be careful too.”
After watching Wendy leave with the Chamber of Commerce and the large soul stone, Fang Heng turned around and quickly approached Gano’s team.
At this moment, Gano and the guards he brought were gathered around the burning soul bonfire.
Gano kept praying that these crazy Ice Bones would quickly recover and run away from them as far as possible!
However, the prayer failed.
The Ice Bones had no intention of leaving. On the contrary, more and more Bones crowded towards them.
The members of the Culodi Chamber of Commerce didn’t dare to leave the area where the soul fire was burning.
One of his subordinates suddenly noticed something and reminded him, “Boss, the Rand Chamber of Commerce is about to run away.”
Gano clenched his teeth, unable to speak for a long time.
How could he not have seen the Rand Chamber of Commerce’s big move?
Take advantage of this opportunity to slip away right under their noses!
However, the Bones around them didn’t seem to be interested in the Rand Chamber of Commerce at all.
What could he do? Or should he bring his men and charge over to fight the Rand Chamber of Commerce? Was this enough to stop the Rand Chamber of Commerce from escaping?
Gano could only hope that his business partners in the nearby Chambers of Commerce would be notified and come to support him as soon as possible.
It was already good enough that he could successfully escape from the encirclement of the Ice Bones!
How could he still have the mood to care about the Rand Chamber of Commerce?
Eh?
Just as he was thinking, Gano suddenly noticed that the area in front of the team where a large number of Ice Bones had gathered was gradually spreading to the sides, opening up a narrow path.
