From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead

Chapter 2 Nephew save me
"What happened?!"

With a bang, the door of the house was knocked open.

A bearded man with a sturdy back and a sinister look rushed in. He was holding a long-handled hammer for blacksmithing.

"Skull monster!"

After seeing Roja, the bearded man clenched the hammer in his hand, with a trace of obvious disgust and evil in his eyes.

not good!Luo Ya felt bad.

At this moment, several new lines of illusory text appeared in front of him again.

Ah...do you still have to choose?

Roja looked at the bearded man's thick arms and waist, and then looked at his thin arms and legs.

Nephew, save me!

……

"Why did the skeleton monster come here?" Blacksmith Black's eyes were full of disgust and contempt.

That tone was as ordinary as saying why there was a dead mouse here.

In this magical world, various fantasy creatures and monsters are not uncommon.

Low-level monsters transformed from corpses like skeleton monsters, although they look ferocious and terrifying, are even weaker than little goblins, so strong blacksmiths will not be afraid.

Moreover, not far to the east of the town, there is an undead mountain range, in which many undead monsters roam, and the residents of Border Town are very used to it.

"Let me kill this monster."

The blacksmith rolled up his sleeves and took a big step. His calloused palm-leaf hand grabbed Roja's arm, and the other hand raised the hammer high.

I protest!Monsters are alive too!Are you a human being who kills people whenever he says?

Roja wanted to resist immediately, but found that he couldn't break free from the man's strong hand.

Seeing that he was about to die under the hammer, he hurriedly stretched out a bone hand to the boy beside him to ask for help.

"Don't touch him! That's Uncle Jules!" Philippe screamed.

The man looked surprised when he heard this and temporarily put down the hammer in his hand.

"You said he was Yule? It turns out it was his corpse. I thought you had buried him long ago."

The blacksmith did not suspect that the emergence of the skeleton monster was related to the boy. After all, this kind of monster was "abundant" here, and as long as the corpse was there, there was a chance that it would mutate.

Philip said: "Uncle Brian, please don't kill him. It's just a very weak skeleton monster. Let me release him to the Mountains of the Undead."

This was a monster transformed from the remains and soul of his uncle, and the young man couldn't bear to kill it.

"You want to let him go?" The bearded blacksmith rolled his eyes and held Roja in his hand. "This can't be done! This monster is already my prey when I see it. I want to take it into my head." A piece of my soul in exchange for a glass of beer."

With that said, he raised the hammer in his hand again, pretending to hit Roja.

"and many more!"

Philip was so frightened that he hurriedly took out five copper coins from his pocket and put them into the blacksmith's hand. "Uncle Brian, I will give you the money, please give it to me."

This was the young man's meager savings, and he took it all out without hesitation.

"For soul fragments, five copper coins are completely enough..." the blacksmith said while taking the copper coins.

However, after stuffing the copper coins into his trouser pocket, a sly smile immediately appeared on his face: "But Philip, I'm going to use its bones to feed the dogs. How much money are you going to pay?"

He grabbed Roja's arm with a proud look on his face, as if he had caught the young man's weak spot.
"Every bone in Yule's body is worth 5 copper coins. Count you 1000 copper coins, Philip! Bring the money!"

When Phillip heard what he said, his eyes widened in disbelief, "You are robbing! I don't have that much money at all!"

The blacksmith didn't wait for him to refuse and said directly: "Then remember, you still owe me 995 copper coins. I will ask you for it at any time in the future!"

He let go of Roja and suddenly pushed him towards the boy, "I'll give you back a disgusting skeleton!"

Before leaving, he threatened the young man with fierce eyes: "I am now a reserve member of the Eagle Group. If you dare not pay me, you will end up like your uncle!"

The Eagle Group is the mercenary organization to which the man who robbed and killed Yuler belonged.

This mercenary group is powerful, with hundreds of members, all of whom are experienced warriors.

There are not only ordinary humans, but also dwarves and orcs, Amazon female warriors, elf archers, little human mages and other elite members of different races.

Even the lords who manage Border Town dare not offend the Eagle Group. This group of mercenaries are like legal bandits here, and no one dares to express their anger.

Blacksmith Black has recently become their reserve member, so he acts very arrogantly.

The blacksmith thought for a while and then said: "Every month from now on, you have to pay me back twenty copper coins. If you can't get it, you have to sell your butt to me to make money. Do you understand?"

Seeing the young man nodding his head in fear, the blacksmith left here with satisfaction.

He had already planned to force the young man to work as a male prostitute in the Eagle Group in a few days.

This kind of little boy with delicate features and delicate features like a rabbit will definitely drive the beast-like men and women of the mercenary group crazy.

And with the support of the Eagle Group behind him, he was not afraid that Phillip would dare to resist.

After the blacksmith left, Philip stood there blankly, feeling that his future was dark.

After an unknown amount of time, he looked at the skeleton standing in front of him with sad eyes, "It turns out that what was written in that notebook was undead magic..."

The young man also understood at this time that his uncle would probably never come back.

"Uncle Yule, I will take you out of here to a safe place."

Phillip wiped away his tears and took out a set of tops, pants and boots made of the best material from the house for Roja to put on, and also put a cowboy hat-style felt hat on him.

Roja remained motionless and at his mercy, appearing unconscious.

The Skeleton Monster was originally weak in aggression, and even looked like a dementia when it was first born, so his behavior was normal in the eyes of Philip and the blacksmith.

Afterwards, the boy held his hand and left the town while no one was there on the rainy day.
