Dean frowned as he thought of the Forest of Despair outside the giant wall. The mutated plants that inhabited the underground had almost cost him his life.
Most of the plants had deformed or mutated into new species due to environmental factors such as soil and air radiation. Some mutated plants had simple consciousness. They were bloodthirsty and ferocious. They would hunt like monsters. The probability of the birth of such plants was one in a billion. But every plant that was born would become a huge hidden danger.
Whether it was humans or monsters, they didn't care about the plants around them. It provided a natural umbrella for them when they were young. It allowed them to attack the monsters and humans passing by.
In addition, they could absorb nutrients from the soil. They would never lack food.
Every area where plants were active was marked as a life forbidden zone by the Empire. The Forest of Despair outside the giant wall was one of them.
"Trivial forbidden zones dare to stop my footsteps. Gather fire energy warriors and flatten all the forbidden zones!" Dudian frowned as he said in a cold tone. He wanted to flatten all the forbidden zones that the Devil Emperor didn't bother to clean up!
The whole world was under his feet, so what was a mere forbidden zone?!
Neuss was startled: "Yes."
"If we can't find any news of her within a week then reduce the army by 30% and send her to hard labor!" Dudian looked at Neuss mercilessly.
Neuss felt great pressure: "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand."
After leaving the hall, Neuss felt a little lighter. He was relieved from the extremely uncomfortable and severe pressure. He sighed and secretly smiled. He walked out of the 'Imperial Palace'. As soon as he came outside the wall, he saw Macon hurriedly coming.
"Is there any news?" Neuss's eyes lit up as he asked.
Macon was stunned. He shook his head and smiled: "No, I just came to ask about the transfer of the border guards."
Neuss was startled: "I advise you to wait for such a small matter. He is in a bad mood."
Mason looked at him and asked: "What happened? Did he lose his temper again?"
"If he can't find Miss Aisha, he will reduce the number by 30%!" Neuss smiled bitterly.
Macon smiled: "It's just disarmament. It's not a big deal. The whole world is ours. It's useless to have an army."
Neuss opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something but hesitated. Finally, he said in a deep voice: "This world is won by him, not by us. You'd better not say such things in the future."
Macon was stunned and somewhat puzzled.
Neuss didn't say anything and left in a hurry.
Macon stood in the same place, looking at his back as he left. He slowly frowned thoughtfully.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
The imperial capital gathered a large number of troops, led by Neuss, Macon, Barton, Aurora, Tyrant, and other kings, to destroy one forbidden zone after another! Although these Life Forbidden Zones were dangerous, and even kings had to be careful when venturing into them alone, even a Demigod like the Demon Emperor had to temporarily avoid being bombarded by so many kings and a large number of troops.
The kings of the empire led the cavalry to sweep through the major life Forbidden Zones. Finally, they found the news about Aisha in one of the Life Forbidden Zones.
The news was quickly reported to Dean.
"'Hierro' is a bloodthirsty demonic flower. It has a very high intelligence. It is entrenched in a huge metal vein that stretches for hundreds of miles. The demonic flower lives on top of the vein and feeds on gold and blood. The leader of the corpses has developed intelligence and is conspiring with the demonic flower to lure nearby monsters and adventurers to come close and hunt them down."
Neuss slowly reported the situation to Dean: "We found the corpses after killing the demonic flower. We found traces of Miss Aisha in the brain of the leader of the corpses."
Under his signal, his trusted subordinates brought over a huge metal cage and a huge tray.
Locked inside the metal cage was a five-meter-tall Corpse King with long fangs and fingers as sharp as a zombie's. The Corpse King did not struggle or resist, as it knew that struggling was useless. However, after coming to this hall, it instinctively felt an extreme sense of danger, causing fear to rise in its heart!
When it saw the extremely handsome young man on the throne, it immediately locked onto the source of the danger. It was this young man.
It gently sniffed and recognized that the young man wasn't a corpse nor a human. The smell was very strange. It made it feel thirsty but the abnormal sense of danger made it resist the hunger.
On the tray was a huge stamen. It was incomparably red and glistening.
Dean's eyes fell on both of them. He used his x-ray vision to analyze the smallest structure of both of them. The stamen was the life core of the demonic flower 'Ye Luo' which was mentioned by Neuss. At the moment it was beating like a heart. It still had vitality. It could be refined into an extremely powerful life armor if it was modified a little.
It was a natural hunter's armor material. It should be known that the original clothes of the hunter would be torn after the demonization. Therefore, the Imperial Capital had specially made special soft materials to make hunter's armor. However, the defense was weak.
A lot of thoughts flashed through Dean's mind. He had already thought of the use of the demonic flower 'Ye Luo'. Then he threw it to the back of his mind. His eyes burst out a scorching light and fell on the Corpse King in the cage.
The corpse king couldn't help but tremble in fear. It felt like an ordinary person who had met an undead. It felt like it would be eaten at any time.
The next moment, Dean flicked his finger and shot out dozens of meters. He easily cut off the solid metal cage and turned into a bundle of hair. He wrapped the corpse king and pulled it in front of him.
The corpse king struggled and wailed as the hair pierced into its brain. A lot of memories emerged in front of its eyes.
Dean found a beautiful purple light in those chaotic and bloodthirsty memories. It was a beautiful figure. She was wearing a purple tang suit and her clothes were stained with blood. She stepped into the corpse king's territory.
Aisha!
Dean recognized her at a glance. She was the one he had been looking for! Even if the latter's hair was messy and her face was stained with blood. There was a lot of blood on the corner of her mouth. It seemed that she had eaten something bloody. But Dean could still recognize her at a glance.
In the following memory, Dean saw Aisha fighting with the Corpse King and defeating it. Her strength was extremely powerful! When he defeated the Zombie King that was at the level of the Lord of the Deep Caves, he had actually crushed it!
After defeating the corpse king, Aisha didn't eat it. Instead, she became the new king of this territory. She cooperated with the demonic flower 'Jello'. She drove many undead to lure nearby adventurers and monsters to this forbidden area.
This behavior lasted for two or three months.
Then Aisha left the territory of the demonic flower 'Jello'. She left alone without any undead.
Dean's heart tightened. He quickly flipped through the corpse king's memory. But he didn't see Aisha's figure again. He immediately counted down the corpse king's memory. He found that Aisha had appeared half a year ago. At that time, he had just entered the Federation and was separated from her in two places.
The vast land was far apart from each other …
Dean couldn't help but grab his chest. Although he didn't have a heart, he still felt a suffocating pain in his chest. He clenched his teeth and once again returned to the memory of the corpse king and Aisha's first meeting. Then he slowly toured.
In this memory, Aisha defeated the corpse king. Like them, she ate raw meat. She cruelly killed and ate the monsters that wandered into the territory. However, Dean soon saw the difference. Every once in a while, Aisha would soak her body in the water. She wouldn't move until the dust and blood on her body fell off. Then she would get up.
This behavior was like a human … taking a bath.
In addition, when not hunting, she would often sit on the erect corolla of the demonic flower 'Jello'. She would overlook the entire nearby forest. She would look into the distance, at the sun, and be in a daze.
Dean was shocked when he saw these behaviors. Was there a second consciousness in Aisha's mind?
From Lin Changsheng's research on the undead, he knew that after the undead reached a certain physique, a second consciousness would be born in the brain. Just like the ordinary corpse king, it had a simple consciousness.
And the longer this consciousness was, the smarter and the higher the IQ.
Some of the corpse kings that had lived for hundreds of years had an IQ that was not lower than that of sophisticated human beings.
At this time, Dean also noticed the clothes on Aisha's body. She used to be her favorite purple dress, but now she was wearing it again. It was obviously not the same set she had worn when they parted. So there was only one result, and that was that she found this kind of clothes and put it on.
This also showed that she not only had wisdom but also inherited some of her original preferences.
Could it be that she had regained consciousness?
Dean's eyelids twitched as he thought of this. He was very excited.
But soon, he calmed down. If he still had such fantasies before, then after looking through Lin Changsheng's memory, his understanding of the undead was very detailed. He would not have such fantasies anymore.
It was impossible for the undead to recover their consciousness by themselves.
In Lin Changsheng's experiment, the undead were born with consciousness. Although there weren't many but about 30% of them inherited some of their preferences. Some of them were born with consciousness which had nothing to do with the past. For example, the undead used to be a gentle and kind person. But the consciousness that was born was cruel, bloodthirsty, sinister and despicable.
Although Dean didn't want to admit it but Aisha's behavior was in line with the 30% of the undead. The consciousness that was born just inherited some of the preferences of the original personality.
"If she had recovered her consciousness she would have gone to Sylvia to find me or return to Sylvia. But she didn't." Dean couldn't help but sigh. He was full of loss and regret.
At the beginning of the search for Aisha, he had sent top masters in all aspects to search near the giant wall. But there was no trace of her. It showed that she hadn't returned after leaving.
"In any case, let's find her first. Let her choose whether to remove or keep the second consciousness." Dean thought in his heart. He threw the corpse king to Neuss.
Neuss was startled. He rushed to subdue the corpse king in order to prevent chaos.
"From the looks of it, she has the strength of a king. If you can't find her in the empire then go outside the empire. Even if you have to search all the continents and the whole world, you must find her!" Dudian said in a cold voice.
Neuss, Mason and others were startled. They didn't expect Dean to be so persistent. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Gathering all the resources of the empire just to find a woman. It was a waste of money and manpower. If they were to search the whole world then they didn't know how many soldiers would be sacrificed. It was like the ancient beacons teasing the feudal vassals.
However, they had followed Dean for the longest time. They knew the significance of Aisha to Dean. Even if Aisha had turned into an Undead, Dean wouldn't leave her. He would eat and sleep with her. They couldn't persuade her with just a few words. Therefore, they kept silent.
"You go. I'll ask the Federation and the Fire Dragon Country to mobilize all the troops to search for her." Dean got up and looked at Neuss: "I'll go to the Corpse Kingdom in the north. It's not difficult for her to cross the War God's Wall with her strength. Maybe we'll find some clues there. I'll be back soon. I'll leave this place to you for the time being. Tell everyone to stay alert and don't slack off!"
Neuss' heart tightened. He wanted to say something but hesitated. Soon, he sighed and said: "Yes!" 3_3610/
