Although Han Dong was surprised by the scene in front of him, he was also on guard against the woman behind him … Or rather, his demonic eye was locked on the other party.
If this woman showed any hostility or any suspicious actions, Han Dong would immediately consider "borrowing".
After all, the woman also exuded the aura of a "king."
Based on the way she appeared, her appearance, and her extremely high bone transformation rate,
It was easy to infer that this woman should be the true master of the Frozen Earth, a leader of the Vodas Clan in the past.
When he came to the deepest level of the Frozen Earth Temple, where the Dead Spirit Remnant Page was located,
The woman did not do anything suspicious.
However, the baby's belly grew bigger, and the children's cries grew louder. It seemed like they were hungry … Of course, what the children wanted to eat was not Han Dong, but the bone marrow in the room.
After further confirming that the other party had no intention of framing him, Han Dong threw out a question.
"You built a 'lighthouse' on the surface of the Frozen Earth.
Only my demonic eye of death can capture the light emitted by the lighthouse … Is the purpose of attracting individuals like me, who truly grasps the Book of Death, to come here?
After all, more than half of the remnant pages are scattered in broken dimensions.
If there is an individual who can truly cultivate the Book of Death, they will definitely go deep into the dimension to search for other remnant pages. Sooner or later, they will find you here. "
"Not at all."
"Huh? No? "Han Dong scratched his head. He did not expect his inference to be wrong.
The woman comforted the child in her belly while explaining the purpose of the lighthouse to Han Dong.
"Attracting a 'true disciple' like you is only a secondary purpose of building the lighthouse.
After all, the Book of Death has existed since the birth of the Hybrid Demons. There has never been a 'true disciple' who can control this book.
Whether it is us or this remnant page, we do not place our hopes on the arrival of a 'true disciple.'
The main purpose of building the 'Bone Crystal Lighthouse' is to illuminate the correct path to the Hybrid Demon World, and the one who asked us to build the lighthouse is … "
After saying that, the woman raised her finger and pointed at the remnant page in the container.
Han Dong asked with a puzzled expression, "The construction of the lighthouse was not out of your own will, but a request from the remnant pages?"
At this moment, the woman placed her right arm against the wall made of bones … A wave of ripples spread out, as if she was sensing something.
"The invaders haven't noticed anything strange. They don't seem to know about the Demonic Book's existence. They're only here to 'explore' and 'gather information'.
In that case, we still have time.
Next, I will tell you about the 'tragedy' that befell our clan … Mister Faceless, please listen carefully. As a True Disciple, this story should be helpful to you.
To me, it's a different kind of last words. "
Although Han Dong really wanted to just take the page and leave, he didn't.
However, he couldn't turn down the offer in front of him. Since the woman's information might be useful, he didn't mind listening to it.
"Alright!" Han Dong pretended to be listening attentively.
"You should be very clear that the 'World Cataclysm' caused by humans has caused our universe to be torn apart by terrible boundary cracks one after another … The frozen land under my control, together with the entire planet, was sucked into the [Shattered Dimension].
The moment it fell into it, the planet disintegrated, and nearly 80% of the individuals died.
We, the Vodas Clan, as accidental survivors, followed the broken frozen earth continent and continued to drift between dimensions. We watched the continent disintegrate little by little, and could only hide in the bunker and wait for death.
However, death didn't come for a long time.
Instead, there was an irresistible 'whisper' in our brain, as if something more important than our lives fell into the 'frozen earth'.
Everyone walked out of the bunker at the same time and gathered in the center.
The broken pages were scattered all over the frozen ground. It was precisely because the broken pages were here that the frozen ground was able to float stably between dimensions.
At that time, we all thought this came from the care of Zhongbei and the old kings … But we didn't think that this was the beginning of the nightmare and pain.
On the first night when we came into contact with the torn pages, 60% of our clan lost their rationality and died fighting for the torn pages.
Those who survived also quietly went through the 'Undead Transformation', and the bones slowly became the most important part of the body … As the transformation progressed, we began to no longer rely on the extreme cold, and could even move in a normal temperature state.
Because this was only a part of the torn pages,
We didn't have the 'Advance Scroll' as a foundation, so we couldn't cultivate at all. We could only passively accept this transformation.
Little did we know that we were gradually turning into Undead Absolute, and we could even slowly hear the 'Thought Commands' from the torn pages. "
Han Dong also threw out a question at this time, "Strange … The people who were affected by the 'Book of the Undead' should have a short lifespan, right? How could you survive for so long? "
"I don't know.
Maybe we didn't encounter the whole book, but a part of the torn pages related to 'bones'.
Or maybe, this torn page doesn't want us to die so quickly … Because it needs to borrow our strength to return to its original world. "
"Huh? Borrow your strength to return to the Hybrid Demon World? "
"That's right … In the almost endless years, we have long lost the concept of time.
We who have been reduced to 'Undead Slaves' have been transforming this continent according to the torn pages' requirements.
Currently, the completion rate has reached 83%. Just one more step and the whole continent can move normally between the broken dimensions, and with the positioning of the lighthouse, we can return to our original world. "
Han Dong showed an expression of suddenly enlightened.
"I didn't expect that the torn pages would have self-consciousness … They enslaved you, deliberately preserved your consciousness and extended your lifespan, and even provided you with the ability to reproduce and create.
In essence, they wanted to use you as workers, working endlessly, and one day you can return to your original world and reconstruct the complete 'Book of the Undead'.
How interesting!
No wonder there were so many giant bone pillars similar to 'legs' growing at the bottom of the continent. Once completed, this continent should be able to 'walk' between the broken dimensions.
In this way, the other torn pages of the Undead Souls wandering between the dimensions should also use various methods to return to S-01 … This information is very important, thank you.
What about now? "
The woman showed a relieved smile.
"Now … we can be released in advance.
The ultimate goal of the torn pages to return to their original world is to reconstruct the 'Book of the Undead'.
Since a 'True Disciple' like you is here, this process can be skipped.
Thank you for coming.
Take it and leave here.
As for the group of unknown invaders, we will do our best to delay them and try to die with them. "
"Okay."
Han Dong didn't say much.
He could see that the woman's greatest desire was to be free from the restrictions of slavery and to seek a true death.
Plop!
Han Dong jumped into the cylinder filled with fluid bones.
There was no need for Han Dong to collect them one by one. When he fell in, all the torn pages automatically gathered around him.
They automatically attached themselves to the 'Advance Scroll'.
['Book of the Undead – True Bone Volume' has been recorded.]
At the same time, Han Dong, who was immersed in the cylinder, didn't immediately come out.
Bubbles rise to the surface.
These essence bones, which had been stored for who knows how many years, stuck to the surface of Han Dong's skin and flowed into his body through his pores.
