Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Since Otto heard from Welin that Black Gold City was in a bad situation, he felt that something was not quite right.
Since then, four to five days had passed.
The first batch of Lizardmen riding giant eagles had also sent back relevant information.
After listening to a Lizardman scout’s report in the Council Chamber, Otto’s mood became complicated.
The largest and most prosperous Black Gold City in the Dragon Bone Wasteland was gone, and now it had become a pure city of the dead.
Besides the rotting and swollen corpses everywhere, there were undead creatures crowded throughout the city.
Even though the Lizardmen sent to investigate Black Gold City were riding giant eagles high in the sky, they were still attacked by those undead creatures.
Some gargoyles or various skeletons that could fly in their previous lives killed nearly half of the Lizardmen hovering in the air.
For the time being, the Lizardmen did not find any undead creatures with the characteristics of the Death Lord.
From their point of view, the undead creatures in Black Gold City were now commanded by a Headless Knight, who seemed to be busy constructing a tower made of bones.
According to the Lizardman scouts, they believed it might be a strangely shaped tower.
After the Lizardmen left, Otto held his head, feeling somewhat frustrated.
The more Moray’s presence was needed, the more he was absent.
No matter who was currently occupying Black Gold City, whether the Death Lord or not, they needed to be treated with caution.
Undead creatures were always difficult to deal with, especially when they had sufficient logistical preparations.
And the logistics of the undead were all kinds of creatures and corpses.
As long as they had enough materials, they could produce an incomprehensible number in a very short time.
Although most of them were cannon fodder, a large group of fearless cannon fodder rushing forward was still annoying.
So Otto issued a new order to Gaz, who was in the Dragon Bone Wasteland at the moment.
Now, seizing the Dragon Bone Wasteland was no longer the most important task.
Eliminating as many living creatures and corpses in the Dragon Bone Wasteland for Otto’s sake was the top priority.
It just so happened that not long ago, the Burrowing Worms had dug a tunnel connecting the Yellow Sand City and the Northland of Nolan Forest.
At this time, Gaz’s task was to transport as many living creatures in the Dragon Bone Wasteland as possible to Nolan Forest or the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Those who could not be taken away or who were unwilling to leave were all killed.
As for the various corpses, valuable ones were taken away, and the worthless ones were burned clean.
Anyway, they could not give those undead creatures additional materials for their transformation.
Gaz was a smart goblin. He knew what to do as long as he was given a direction without further explanation.
After assigning this task to the right person, Otto used the Communication Scale to contact Sofia.
Recently, Sofia was still mysteriously hiding somewhere with Felina, studying the so-called new knowledge.
Only by making an appointment through the Communication Scale in advance could Otto see Sofia.
“Is there something urgent you need me for?”
Sofia looked at Otto with a sweet smile.
For some reason, although this girl seemed no different from usual, she felt even more attractive
Shaking his head, Otto pushed those irrelevant thoughts aside and told her the purpose of his visit this time.
“Do you have a way to find out where that bastard Moray is?”
“Moray?”
Sofia was stunned for a moment, then smiled, “It’s simple. In a way, he’s my wand too.
As long as I cast a spell to locate objects, it’s not difficult to find where he is!”
Then, without waiting for Otto to say anything, Sofia skillfully chanted a spell, and a magic screen appeared in front of her.
The scene in the screen was initially dark, but as the perspective changed, it finally settled in a strange room.
Moray, who had been missing for some time, finally appeared in the picture.
The image was fixed on the demonic face in the red gem at the top of the Soul Eater Wand. Judging from Moray’s expression, he seemed to be suffering from something extremely painful.
“From the feedback of the spell, it should not be far from us.”
Sofia frowned and then enlarged the image on the screen.
As a result, Moray was found to be currently tied to a pillar by strange glowing magical ropes.
Next to him stood Konoheim, dressed in strange clothes and holding various professional tools.
Although they were impractical, Otto couldn’t help but think of some inappropriate adult scenes involving Konoheim and Moray in their predicament.
While Otto and Sofia were watching through the magic screen, Konoheim seemed to notice something.
His dirty-bearded face looked dissatisfied as he glanced over at them.
After mumbling something, he soon let it go.
Then, he waved his hand casually, “Oh, it’s you two? I might need some more time here. When I’m tired of playing, I’ll naturally bring this wand back.”
Without waiting for a response, he intended to cut off the connection on the screen.
Seeing this, Otto quickly intervened, “No, no, I have some questions for Moray. I’ll leave as soon as I’m done. It won’t take up much of your time, don’t worry.”
“In that case, go ahead and ask.”
Konoheim nodded and stepped aside.
Strangely enough, a simple locating spell was turned by Konoheim into a magical version of video calling.
Seeing Otto and Sofia through the screen, Moray immediately cried and complained, “Thank God, you finally remembered me! This brass dragon is a pervert.
Please, rescue me as soon as possible! If I stay here any longer, I’m going to lose my mind!”
Sofia, standing on the side, did not show any sympathy for Moray’s plea. On the contrary, she laughed.
This was truly outrageous, though Otto’s reaction was no different than hers.
However, at least Otto knew how to control his expression.
He looked solemnly at Moray and asked, “Has there been any recent change in the Death Lord? I suspect he has left the Dark Domain.”
“The Death Lord?”
Hearing that name, Moray was startled and then sensed something attentively.
Then, he looked astonished and said, “You guessed right. He’s left the Dark Domain, and his current location isn’t too far from us!”
