Chapter 41
Back at the Lake of Life, Zhang Li lay down in a clean place and fell asleep soundly.

On the other side of the forest that he didn't know, Ling An walked out of the forest with the support of his wife, clutching his bleeding shoulder.

"Father." His son leaned over cautiously, seeing Ling An's injured shoulder, he didn't say much, but whispered in his ear, "The mayor is here."

"Oh?" Ling An was taken aback for a moment, unexpectedly coming over so quickly.

He didn't say much, and motioned to his son and wife to take him to the mayor.

Mayor Dalot is a quadrupedal humanoid with two arms and two curved horns on top of his head. He is more than three meters tall. Looking at Ling An, who only reaches his waist, he doesn't have much expression on his face, just He lowered his head and asked, "How's the situation?"

A half-meter-tall dwarf wobbled over, with a bamboo basket around his waist. As he walked, he reached out and grabbed a handful of leaves, put them in his mouth and chewed vigorously. Beside him, he spit out the rotten chewed thing, climbed onto Ling An's body, and covered his wound with it.

Feeling that his wound was starting to numb, An couldn't help frowning, but he adjusted his language and answered Mayor Dalot's words.

"The situation is very bad." Ling An said, "There is no danger in this forest during the day, and you can walk around at will, but at night, there will be endless skeletons and undead. No matter how many you kill, it seems that you can't kill them. Same."

Ling An pondered for a moment and continued: "The strength of the skeleton undead is very weak, at least from what I have seen, it is at most similar to a militiaman who has undergone certain training, and the strongest can't reach the level of lighting a flame." Degree."

"But there are too many of them, and..."

Ling An said with a very serious expression, "These skeletons and undead actually have their own cooperation!"

"Cooperate?" Mayor Dalot snorted, "Could it be that there are still high-level necromancers?"

"No, the simple skeletons and undead have their own cooperation." Ling An took a deep breath, "This kind of cooperation is extremely terrifying!"

"A single undead skeleton poses absolutely no threat, but when they form a team of more than ten, they cooperate very well."

"When there are sixty or seventy people, it will be very difficult for those who have not lit the flame to escape from them."

Ling An looked at Mayor Dalot, "In addition, I found the body of the wolf monster Hughes Anno in the forest. I checked the surroundings. He should have been besieged to death by hundreds of undead skeletons."

Mayor Dalot was absent-minded for a while, then shook his head slightly: "Impossible, Hughes Anno has been lighting the flame for a long time, and he is even planning to light the second flame, how could he die among hundreds of low-level skeletons?" hands of the dead."

"There is no doubt about it." Ling An pointed to his wound, "At night, I encountered an army composed of more than 100 skeletons and undead spirits. ], directly cut all my strength."

"No matter how powerful the wolf monster Hughes Anno is, as long as he doesn't ignite the second flame, he will never be immune to this state. He will be suppressed to a minimum by the halo effect of the numerous skeleton undead, and he will eventually be easily killed."

Ling An's words left Mayor Dalot speechless: "It turned out to be like this, only those who ignite the second flame can be safe and sound in front of these skeletons and undead spirits?"

He felt particularly disturbed. In this remote area, there were very few people who could ignite the second flame, and most of them were the mayor or their cronies.

In the small town where he lived, there were only two people who had lit the second flame, and they still had quarrels with each other on weekdays.

"So, the forest can't be obtained by relying on us?"

Mayor Dalot was extremely unwilling. Looking at the lush forest in front of him, he couldn't help snorting.

Ling An shook his head: "This is just what I saw from the outside. It's a bit too dangerous for me to go deep inside."

Mayor Dalot no longer went to visit Ling An. Since the situation in the depths could not be obtained, he was useless.

Next, what to do with the forest?
In other words, how can we use this forest to do something?

********************
On the other side of the forest, the corpses of more than a dozen bounty hunters were placed outside the forest. Their leader looked gloomy, looking around with anger and joy.

During the day yesterday, the bounty hunter group discovered this huge forest and immediately gave up their mission completely.

Here, the degree of resource scarcity is difficult for outsiders to understand. Even a single tree is enough to bring a sum of money so that people can live a life without working hard.

And here, there are so many trees that the entire bounty hunter group is crazy.

Even the head of the group completely forgot about the bug farm out of his mind.

But it was a pity that just as they rushed into the forest in a swarm, it was almost dark, and they were suddenly stunned by the appearance of the skeleton army.

The arrival of nearly a thousand skeletons caused the entire bounty hunter group to completely collapse, and most of them were killed with almost no ability to fight back.

It's not that they lack strength, but that in front of these skeletons, they are instantly weak like ordinary people, unable to fight these skeletons at all.

The leader saw the opportunity quickly, and quickly led the people to flee, until he got away from the skeletons, and then he completely relieved his own weakness.

They found that the skeletons would not leave the border of the forest, so they hid outside to observe the movement inside until the sun rose in the morning. They were pleasantly surprised to find that all the skeletons had not entered the ground and disappeared from everyone's eyes.

So the remaining people brought out the bodies of their companions.

This is not the care between companions, it is just because-the corpse is also an extremely important resource!
Everyone in the bounty group looked at the corpse at their feet, and at the companions around them. Everyone knew what was going on in their minds.

They were silent, but they stopped talking.

Next to it is the forest, which is where the huge wealth is. Is it necessary to be so tense?
Just as these people were thinking about it, a sharp laughter suddenly sounded: "It's so funny, a group of stupid mortals have started fighting among themselves."

The bounty leader squinted his eyes and looked at a person suddenly walking up on the sand dunes in the distance: "Who are you?"

"Master Andrew was very upset when he heard that there was a group of annoying bugs following him." The visitor didn't answer the other party's words at all, and said to himself, "So he ordered me to come and clean up."

The head of the bounty suddenly changed his face: "Followers of the priest!"

"No, believers."

Before the words were finished, a silver light flashed suddenly, and a crossbow bolt swiftly pierced a bounty hunter's throat, flying him into the forest behind him.

 Thank you for the reward of 100 starting coins from Yinhe Geng, thank you for the reward of 100 starting coins in the cold night of Wugeng, thank you qingaipong for the reward of 100 starting coins, and thank you Wu Mingzhi for the reward of 1000 starting coins!
