1450 The Reason
What was going on?
The strange situation of the Ice Bones made Gano’s heart skip a beat. He immediately signaled for the team to be on guard.
“Pada, pada…”
Following the sound of light footsteps, a young man walked out from the passage made by the Bones.
Gano’s heart trembled when he saw that person’s face. His eyes widened as he pointed at him in disbelief.
“Fang… Fang Heng?”
Fang Heng!
How could it be him?
Could it be…
It was said that Fang Heng had obtained the Bones’ summoning skill book from the Rand Chamber of Commerce a few days ago.
Coupled with the strange behavior of the skeletal creatures around him, Gano couldn’t help but have a terrifying thought.
Could it be that the large number of Ice Bones around them were all under Fang Heng’s control?
Fang Heng stopped in his tracks. Surrounded by the Ice Bones, he moved a short distance away from Gano’s party, quietly looking at the latter with an expressionless face.
“It’s you! Fang Heng!”
Sweat trickled down Gano’s cheeks.
Even though the other party did not move or say anything, he could feel his legs trembling.
The young man in front of him gave him too much pressure!
Gano couldn’t help but shout, “You still dare to come out? You’d better take your Bones and scram now. Our Culodi Chamber of Commerce has always been vengeful. Our people are nearby and will be here soon. When the time comes…”
Fang Heng looked at Gano and coldly interrupted, “Do you want to live?”
Gano’s face instantly turned deathly pale.
“Fang Heng! It was indeed you who did it! What do you want?!”
“The timing is just nice. I have a few questions for you, so I came over.”
Fang Heng looked at the soul bonfire behind Gano and his group and said, “I noticed that you have a special ability that can create a barrier to isolate the outside world. I’m curious how you did it, and why you want the soul crystal stone.”
Gano gritted his teeth as he said, “Don’t even think about it!”
“No room for discussion?”
Fang Heng shrugged and said casually, “That’s a pity. By the way, you just released a distress signal, right? Your companions should be here soon. I hope your companions can be as stubborn as you.”
Gano understood Fang Heng’s threat and his face turned pale. He did not want to die. He regretted rejecting him so quickly.
Gano gritted his teeth and uttered, “You will really let us go? Do you swear on your words?”
“Not everyone.”
Fang Heng saw the fear on Gano’s face and his expression turned even colder. He said, “Your lives are not worth that much. Two questions, and I can only let you go.”
“Dream on! Even if I die, I won’t…”
Gano slowly stopped and looked at Fang Heng.
What was that?
A thick book appeared in front of Fang Heng, emitting a dark golden light.
The dark golden glow that was constantly seeping out from the book made Gano feel immense pressure.
What was that? The Book of Creation?
That pressure was obviously the suppression of the holy element on the undead element!
The other members of the Culodi Chamber of Commerce also looked at Fang Heng with shock in their eyes.
He’s actually a practitioner of the sacred study?
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
In the next moment, 20 golden specks of light shot out from the Book of Oaths!
Gano’s pupils constricted.
What was that?!
A guard shouted, “Be careful!”
Gano only reacted when he heard this shout. He was shocked to find that the golden light spot was heading straight for him. The speed of the light spots was too fast for him to dodge effectively.
Swoosh! Swoosh swoosh!!
The specks of light brushed past Gano’s shoulder at an extremely fast speed.
Just a little bit more.
The target of the attack was not him.
Gano was so scared that cold sweat broke out on his back. Before he could rejoice at his luck, he heard an explosion behind him.
“Boom! Boom Boom!!!”
Not good!
Gano’s heart skipped a beat.
Turning his head, he saw the dark golden light flash past the group of guards and directly hit the burning soul bonfire behind them!
The holy remnant chapter crashed into the fiercely burning soul bonfire, immediately causing a violent explosion.
The soul fire suddenly rose!
Not good! His target was the soul bonfire!
Under the bombardment of the holy remnant chapter, the few guards of the trading firm who were pouring their spiritual power into the soul fire immediately felt their spiritual power being drained at a speed that was dozens of times faster!
“Go help them!”
The expressions of the two guides beside the bonfire changed drastically when they saw this. They immediately called for the others to come over and support them.
However, the attack power of the holy remnant chapter was too high. Before his teammates could rush over to help, a few guards who were sending spiritual power to the soul fire were instantly sucked dry!
Without the support of the spiritual power, the soul fire flickered a few times before it was extinguished.
Oh no!
The faces of everyone from the Culuodi Chamber of Commerce turned pale.
Everything happened too quickly and they had no time to react. By the time they came back to their senses, the bonfire had already been extinguished!
Almost instantly, the Ice Bones that gathered around them lost their obstruction and surged toward the player team from all directions.
“Get into formation! Don’t let them get close! Don’t split up!”
The captain of the guards shouted.
Under the huge chaotic impact, the Culuodi Chamber of Commerce wanted to form a formation to resist, but in less than half a minute, the team was immediately scattered!
Run!!
Gano saw that the situation was not good and immediately fled. Under the cover of the two accompanying guards, he quickly ran to the right where there were fewer Ice Bones.
He sprinted forward with all his might.
Wherever there were fewer Ice Bones, he would go into the gaps.
He only wanted to live.
Gano felt like his lungs were about to explode as he continued running. He relied on his survival instincts to keep running forward!
Suddenly, Gano realized that the two bodyguards on his left and right had stopped.
“Why don’t you continue…”
Gano was about to blame them when he looked up and saw the person blocking his way. The second half of his sentence was stuck in his throat.
Fang Heng and the numerous Ice Bones blocked his way. They were densely packed together, blocking all of his paths.
Without waiting for Fang Heng to speak, Gano immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
“I’ll talk! Let me go. I’ll tell you everything you want to know!”
“You see, it’s good to cooperate earlier. It can save a lot of trouble.” Fang Heng’s face was gentle as he asked, “Can you answer the question now?”
“Alright, alright. Our trading company found someone to specially make the undead aura barrier. The exact method of making it is confidential, so I don’t know either. I know that the raw material for making it is soul crystals. We need a large number of soul crystals to make the barrier.”
In order to save his life, Gano didn’t dare to hide anything and told him everything he knew.
“About ten years ago, our trading company began researching how to enter the shady line and explore it. It was only when we found the soul crystal and used the crystal’s power to create a barrier that we made a huge breakthrough.”
