Skelly Family In Action - Part 9
Skelly Family In Action - Part 9
Yu kept begging to get out ever since they entered the garden. The spirit alchemist unceasingly told him that the garden was heaven for the alchemist, from the nature energy to how good the environment was to growing many herbs. The man could not stop speaking to the point of asking him to get the garden for the empire.
"I let you out with a condition. We will not take the garden for the empire, but I will give you time to do whatever you want in this garden. You can collect the samples of herbs or soils, whatever, but you are done once our business here is over. If you agree with the condition and stop talking inside my head, you can roam free."
"Agree." After giving his reply, Yu instantly disappeared from Tang Shaoyang's sight. The guy wasted no time. The first thing he did was to scope a handful of soil. After the soil, he took the sample from the falling leaves and also the leaves on the tree. After that, the guy disappeared into the woods.
With the nuisance in his head gone, Tang Shaoyang summoned Keeper and Skelly6. Keeper was the Infernal Slinger with the best sight among the skelly family. Skelly6 was Grandmaster Killer with the best ability to scout areas among the skelly family. He summoned the two and ordered them to scout the area for him. That made his movement more efficient as he had more eyes, making his search scope more extensive. On top of that, the skelly family could directly talk into his head, so it would be easier for them to communicate.
"Eril said there are no restrictions or rules for the fight, best to avoid killing them, but casualty in the battle is inevitable. That means I can kill them." Tang Shaoyang licked his lip. "Killing a Myth Rank should give me a few levels, no?"

Tang Shaoyang leveled up over seven hundred levels after killing the Executioner Knight from the Divine Church. One Primordial Rank and fourteen Myth Ranks, so he figured that he would get dozens of levels from killing the Myth Rank.
Looking over the status window, he noticed that Spiritual Energy was filled up once more. Not just filled up, the number doubled. He had gone through so many issues lately, and he forgot about [Spirit Resurrection].
"But wait, how's the number doubled? I haven't sacrificed any spirits lately…." Tang Shaoyang was puzzled by the number. He remembered that he had around 119 hundred thousand Spiritual Energy for Zaneos's resurrection. And the only method to raise Spiritual Energy was through spirit sacrifice, but he had not made the sacrifice recently. The empire was troubled with the rebellion and the reformation, and also the upcoming eleventh floor of the dimensional tower. The thought of increasing his Spiritual Energy was never crossed in mind with all those troubles.
"But wait. I can't use the resurrection yet right now. How am I supposed to tell your background to the guild?"
The spirits' excitement died down after hearing that. The current situation was not the best to revive one of his spirits because it would arouse suspicion around him instead. The guild might back down from helping him if he was too suspicious unless he wanted to risk his life by telling his actual class the guild. He did not know what the guild's reaction would be, but he also did not want to try that after hearing Avyn's ancestor story where people hated the Spirit Contract class. It was more than hate for many groups to destroy Avyn's ancestor world.
Tang Shaoyang did not want to add more enemies to his list. "I am sorry, Zowen. But you have to wait until the situation is better." The next on the list was Zowen the Grand Lightning Magus. She was his third spirit, and since Karan did not want to be resurrected, Zowen was next on the line. He could feel her disappointment, but there was nothing he could do in this circumstance.
"I can cook another story for you and the guild, but later, not now. It's better to avoid unnecessary suspicion. I hope you can understand, Zowen." Even though he felt guilty, he had to face it. The contract between him and Zowen was the resurrection; that is what made the magus loyal and helpful toward him.
[I understand.] Zowen responded calmly.
The situation put him in an awkward situation. "Let the hunt begin." He tried to change the topic, advancing to the forest. Tang Shaoyang activated the Spirit Eyes, scanning the two thousand meters around him as he walked deeper with no destination.
"How big is this garden?" Tang Shaoyang could not help but raise his voice. He had been venturing for half an hour at his maximum speed, but he could not find the people from the Virandal Empire. That was right; he tried to find the Virandal Empire's group instead of looking for the boss monster.
"Are they in the opposite direction?" He turned around, thinking the Virandal Empire's group was behind him. That meant Eril or Roman would meet the Virandal Empire team.
[Master! It's me, Keeper. I think I found the boss monster.] A voice rang in his head.
Tang Shaoyang immediately tried to sense Keeper's location and dashed toward Keeper's direction. Keeper was to his south, and it took him five minutes to reach Keeper's location. It was far, but it did not take much time for him to close the distance with his current speed.
Keeper was standing at the branch of the highest tree around. The moment Tang Shaoyang arrived, the skeleton pointed in the direction. The direction where the suspected boss monster for the Epic Rank Garden.
