Ulysses thought that undead of the level of the Bone Lords wouldn't pose much of an obstacle to him, but the sheer number of them was overwhelming, like cockroaches—disgusting and repulsive.

Aside from the Holy Maiden, he actually hated the undead.

They reeked of decay, as if they wanted to tell everyone that they were dead.

Of course, if we have to make a comparison, vampires are no different from the dead. Perhaps it's a case of like repels like, and Ulysses actually particularly hates the undead.

Surrounded by such a group of undead clones, the frustration he felt was indescribable.

But then he thought about the unfortunate saintess inside... no... she's not a saintess anymore, she's a little liar, and the little liar needs him to save her. So it wasn't that he couldn't accept stepping on a few... hundreds of giant cockroaches.

In theory, he could use magic to clear out these clones over a large area, but every time he cleared some, other areas would quickly fill in and block his way again.

It's annoying.

As Ulysses dealt with these clones of the 'Bone Lords,' he would occasionally look up at the skulls in the sky.

He wanted to know if the Bone Lord's most important weakness was hidden there, and if so, he should take action to eliminate it now.

He acted immediately; having considered this possibility, he wouldn't procrastinate.

A dark light, almost obscuring the sky, flashed across the top of the city lord's mansion, heading straight towards the skull like a bolt of lightning.

Almost even the undead watching the events inside the Necromancer's City from afar could see that the dark magic struck the skull, shattering a large number of bone fragments that fell from the sky.

It was like a shower of bone fragments, but from a distance, it looked like snow.

Even though half of the skull was broken, it still floated above the city lord's mansion, watching the location of a certain room, which was the room where Bai Xi was.

The other three figures who were trying to break through the barrier also saw this scene. They raised their heads slightly, their brows furrowed, and then continued to clear out their clones.

Several figures were getting closer and closer to the gate of the city lord's mansion, less than half a minute away from going up to the second floor.

...

Bai Xi is unaware that she is like a princess captured by a dragon, and that several knights are already trying to rescue her.

Of course, none of these knights are true knights; there are even evil beings among them.

"I feel like something's not quite right."

After listening to Lai Leya's words, Bai Xi was still lost in her own thoughts. Now that Luo Yi and Little Jellyfish were not around, the person who was going to investigate had been replaced by Lu Ling.

Lu Ling hasn't returned yet, so she can only guess.

"It's alive, my senses are definitely right."

Leia seemed to be trying to prove her professional skills, her little bird face full of seriousness, but unfortunately neither Little Ghost nor Bai Xi could see it.

"That's enough. Your description makes me feel like you're talking about something weird."

The little ghost sighed.

"It's good that someone is coming to rescue you; it saves you a lot of trouble."

He pointed to the door, and perhaps because too many of his clones outside had been eliminated, the part at the door became increasingly agitated, and the knocking grew louder and louder.

At the same time, unbeknownst to Bai Xi, the core of the teleportation array she carried began to heat up slightly.

However, as a ghost, she cannot feel temperature for the time being.

Therefore, this anomaly was not discovered.

However, above the city lord's mansion, the skull that had been closely monitoring Bai Xi... or rather, the true Bone Lord, instantly sensed the change in the core of the teleportation array.

That was a treasure that could allow him to defy fate. He was willing to risk being injured to pretend to be an ordinary monitoring undead, all for this moment.

Caught completely off guard, the enormous skull slammed violently into the wall of the city lord's mansion.

At the same time, Ulysses arrived at the door of the second-floor room and immediately recognized which door the clones were trying to open.

He appeared in the doorway in a flash, reaching out to pull it open, when a loud bang rang in his ears.

At that moment, Perkin, Xiu, and Labai also went up to the second floor, and then, amidst the huge sound of the walls breaking, they saw a scene that made their pupils dilate.

The giant skull suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed Bai Xi whole.

In the instant that the area around Baixi brightened, she didn't have time to react before the giant skull bit into her mouth, and the last thing she saw was...

The image shows Ulysses, Hugh, Labai, and Perkin rushing towards her.

In an instant, all the questions that had been troubling her were answered.

How did they end up on the Western Continent?

Did they die too?

Bai Xi's mind was filled with countless question marks, and she didn't even have her instincts awakened, nor did she sense the presence of life on them, because then...

She was locked inside a skull.

It's said to be inside the skull, but it's actually an alternate dimension that exists inside the skull.

Bai Xi landed on the ground, calmed herself down a bit, and looked up to see a somewhat young man sitting inside, drinking red tea, looking as elegant as a nobleman.

No, he must be an aristocrat; his demeanor is something commoners can't fake.

Interestingly, even though Bai Xi had never seen what the Bone Lord looked like in his human form, she still assumed that this man was the Bone Lord when she saw him.

"Want revenge?"

For some reason, perhaps because Bai Xi was certain that the guy in front of her was the real Bone Lord, she was not afraid at all, but rather very calm.

I even have the leisure to ask what the Bone Lord is planning to do.

"It's just a disobedient clone; I should have gotten rid of it long ago."

The Bone Lord shook his head, smiled, and extended his hand, very gentlemanly inviting Bai Xi to sit opposite him.

Bai Xi didn't move, but continued to ask questions.

"Then what is your purpose in seeing me like this?"

She didn't believe that the Bone Lord would risk being beaten up by the progenitor of vampires just to meet her alone.

"I desperately need the core of the teleportation array."

The Bone Lord finally revealed his purpose in a calm and unhurried manner.

Bai Xi was puzzled.

"What is this teleportation array for?"

She was very cautious; if something was something that even the Bone Lord wanted to return to in an emergency, it must be very important.

If you hand it over carelessly, unforeseen consequences may arise.

"..."

The Bone Lord pursed his lips, and the next second, Bai Xi felt the power of death surging around his body.

It seems the Bone Lord has no intention of explaining to her and is preparing to attack directly.

Thinking of this, Bai Xi's eyes also revealed murderous intent.
