From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead

Chapter 238: Reversing 4000 Years of Time
At night, the moon and stars are rare.

Roja once again came to the place where the Sword in the Stone was.

Although it was late at night, the place was still brightly lit, and young elves and humans lined up in a long line, one by one trying to pull out the sword in the stone.

Suddenly, Merlin's spiritual clone appeared and asked, "Sir Roja, what's wrong with you coming here so late?"

It is impossible for such an important place not to be guarded by a saint, and her true form is not far away.

"Just come and take a look." Roja stepped forward and came to the stone platform. The young people suddenly felt a terrible aura and stepped back.

"You all leave first." Merlin ordered the others.

After everyone else left, she asked, "Have you discovered anything new?"

At this time, the portal opened, and Komodo, Mamba and other saints came out and looked at Roja. They were also paying attention here.

The two heroic spirits Gandalf and Matilda also appeared here. There is no limit to their existence time. Except when they were first summoned, the Styx provided part of the magic power, and Roja also continued to provide them with energy.

"Try it."

Roja stretched out a palm, and in his palm was a handful of silver sand.

This is the sand in the time-traveling hourglass, which seems to be the mythical gravel from the river of time.

Immediately afterwards, an ice crystal vial appeared in Roja's other hand, containing a bright red liquid, and then he poured the demigod's blood onto the silver gravel.

"Buzz--" The two reacted immediately.

The red blood seemed to be absorbed by the silver sand without leaking out. The sand turned red, and illusory and mysterious red and silver symbols slowly floated out from it, steaming like mist.

Well……

Roja thought for a moment, spread the wet sand evenly on his palm, and then held it on the hilt of the Sword in the Stone.

The long sword suddenly lit up with a dazzling silver light, and a strange wave emitted!

"Qiang——"

The next moment, under the shocked eyes of others, Roja slowly pulled out the Sword of Countercurrent from the stone platform!

"Pull it out?!" Merlin, Komodo and the others exclaimed in disbelief with their eyes widened.

What is the final test?
Holding this legendary sword in his hand, Roja felt a powerful and mysterious force, which was "time" that was even more elusive than the power of the void.

Then, he tried to strike at the sky.

"Boom! Rumble..."

Suddenly, a shining, rushing, and huge river appeared in the originally dark night sky!

Similar to the River Styx, which represents death, this is the embodiment of the law of time - the river of time!
Ok?
Roja looked down at his hands,
Together with the sword of countercurrent, his entire body began to gradually become illusory, turning into particles of glowing sand floating into the air.

Including the two heroic spirits Gandalf and Matilda, they also experienced the same situation.

"You..."

Komodo, Merlin and others didn't know what happened. They could only watch in surprise as Roja's body became more and more unreal, and finally disappeared here together with the two heroic spirits...

……

"boom!"

After an unknown amount of time, the blue flames rekindled in Roja's eyes, and he gradually regained consciousness.

This is where?

In front of him was a strange study room with simple decoration, and he was lying on a chair in front of the table, and the air was very quiet.

Roja sat up and found that the armor on his body was gone, replaced by a black robe, and his size had also shrunk significantly.

Is this still my previous body? !
He was startled and hurriedly raised a hand,

What he saw was a white bone hand with light black lines. This was a body transformed by the water of the Styx. It contained more terrifying magic than ordinary undead power.

Roja took off his robe and thought,
The next moment, the jet-black armor re-covered his whole body, and he grabbed a bright red magic gun in his right hand. The Ring of Royal Power and the Skull Ring also reappeared on the fingers of his left hand.

[Styx Spirit Lord lv31]

When the unchanged panel reappeared in front of him, Roja finally calmed down.However, after traveling through the river of time, where did I end up?
"stubborn--"

At this moment, the door to the study room was opened, and a skeleton wearing a butler's clothes walked in, carrying tea.

After seeing Roja, it opened its mouth in shock and froze in place, "You, you are..."

Roja moved his fingers, and the talking skeleton flew over and was grabbed by his shoulders, "Tell me, where is this place?"

"This is...Master Bai's manor...the southern part of the Cloron Empire..."

With the questioning of the skeleton butler and the ability to read minds, Roja gradually understood his situation.

This house, together with the manor outside, belonged to a senior lich mage named "Bayi", and now that Baiyi had disappeared, he suddenly appeared in the study.

Moreover, Roja suspected that after traveling through the river of time, this place was no longer the original era.

Not only is this room decorated in an ancient style;
And in this skeleton's memory, there is no Orario, Adventurer's Guild, underground maze... not even monsters!
"Gandalf, Matilda."

Two illusory figures gradually solidified in the room. They were two legendary heroes. They also followed the river of time and came here, and they did not disappear.

Luo Ya said calmly: "Please figure out what era this is."

"You just need to know the big time points."

Gandalf asked the skeleton monster: "Do the heavens, the demon world, and the ancient dragons still exist? Where are the three wise men?"

The skeleton monster shook his head hurriedly, "They are all gone. The three sages... the Dawn Sage has disappeared for three years."

Gandalf's eyes widened, "Really go back 4000 years ago, when the underground labyrinth had not yet appeared... I was still learning spells in the northern forest at this time!"

What exactly is the final trial?
Roja fell into deep thought,
He did not think that the current matter was outside the scope of the final trial, because the Demon God Lati left the Sword of Countercurrent obviously to enable people to travel through time.

One more question - have they really traveled to the past?Or is it just an illusion?
Although everything is perceived to be real, it would be incredible to actually travel through time and space.

Never heard of such a thing before, and regardless of how much power it would take to do it, what about the time paradox issue?
Roja thought and took out something, which was the White Flute of the Sage of Dawn...

At this moment, the clicking footsteps of skeletons came from the yard outside.

You can see it through the door,

Outside, there was a little girl wearing a gray robe with fluffy black curly hair. She was grabbed by two tall skeleton soldiers and dragged to the door.

Roja asked: "What is going on?"

"Uh..." the skeleton butler explained carefully: "Sir, this is a thief that the guards just caught... How should we deal with it?"

The girl suddenly struggled and said eagerly:
"Master Bai! I just want to meet you. Please give me a letter of recommendation. I want to enter Prenxis Magic Academy! Please!"

She seemed to have never met the owner here at all, and recognized Roja as the lich mage Bayi.

The lich mage Bayi, whose existence is suspected to have been replaced by Roja, serves as a tutor at a noble magic academy called Prensis, which is the highest institution of the magic empire.

The young mage apprentice in front of her seemed to be born as a commoner and was not qualified to enter unless she got a letter of recommendation from a senior mage. This was why she sneaked in.

An apprentice dared to sneak into the territory of a senior mage. He was really not afraid of death.

Roja learned the whole story through mind reading and said, "Throw her out."

He was thinking about where the Bull of Heaven was, and had no intention of caring about other chores.

"Master, I will follow your instructions." The skeleton butler bowed to Roja and recognized him as his new master.

"Master Bai! Please help me!" The girl was still struggling and seemed unwilling to give up.

The girl has a delicate face with some freckles and a little baby fat. Her blue eyes are wide open and full of stubbornness.

Roja looked at her face and suddenly felt a little familiar...

"and many more."

He stopped the skeleton soldier and asked, "Young apprentice, what is your name?"

"I……"

The girl broke free from the skeleton soldier and stood firm on the ground. She seemed to adjust her robe nervously, "My name is Alessia Fels..."
