Chapter 1458
The recruit kept groping in his pocket and soon took out a magic stone.
The thing in his hand looked like a magic stone on the surface, but it was actually a magic tool. As long as a little magic power was injected into it, it would glow and shine. It was very useful in a dark space like the basement.
This magic tool was made by an alchemist named Irene. Although glowing magic tools were not rare, the alchemist had reduced the price to the lowest.
It was said that she used those discarded magic cores to transform it, so the price was very cheap. Basically, it only took fifty copper coins to buy it, and a better silver coin could also be taken.
It was also for this reason that people like this recruit who came from a poor family could afford it. This cheap magic tool could even have miraculous effects in some battles. After all, everyone has magic power in their bodies, and it is too convenient to use.
"Ahh!!!"
The recruit had just injected magic power to make the magic prop glow, but when he looked up, he met the eyes of a corpse. This scared him so much that he sat down on the ground.
This kind of place is too yin, and it is not suitable for living people to stay for a long time. If possible, he wants to escape from here now, but in order to survive, he can only endure the discomfort in his heart.
Walking deep into the basement, he soon stopped in front of a door. Unlike the simple space outside, the decoration of this door is relatively gorgeous.
On the first day of working here, the recruit was very curious about what was in it. He didn't know the rules and asked the old soldier who had been in the Holy Land for a long time, but he was scolded by the other party.
However, seeing that the recruit was so curious, the old soldier couldn't help gossiping with him.
Long before this basement was decided to be used to store corpses, the leaders of the Holy Land transformed it into an underground secret room, which was specially used to store someone's corpse.
It was no secret who the corpse belonged to. It was none other than Elena, the dragon-slaying hero who had fainted three years ago.
When he was on the front line, Elena fought against the devil, the god of fraud, and even the god of fear. When he came back, he was poisoned by the god of fraud.
He fainted in front of everyone, and there was no way to wake him up.
The most terrifying thing was that Elena's body had lost all signs of life since he fell into a coma. He had no breath and no heartbeat. When he opened his eyelids, he could only see the white of his eyes, as if he had become a corpse.
However, when I asked professionals, they said that Elena's soul had not dissipated and was still living in this body, but the body was completely asleep.
In fact, Elena's body had not started to stink and rot after so many years, which was indeed not the situation of a dead person.
In order to revive Elena in the past two years, the brave men, the king of Sorens, and even the Elf Kingdom and the Principality in the north all gave their full support, using all kinds of means to wake Elena up.
Even in the past two years, Elena was basically taken care of by someone. Even though Elena himself could not move, his body was always kept in the best condition.
But there was still no sign of waking up in two years. Many people were getting impatient and felt that Elena was dead and would not survive even if his soul had not dissipated.
At first, the people closest to Elena were unwilling to accept this fact and had no intention of giving up. They looked like they would never give up until Elena woke up.
But soon the battle became more and more intense. Elena, who led the protest with the loudest voice, had to deal with the attack of the Demon King's army as a brave man. The people around her also joined the battlefield, and gradually there was no one to take care of Elena.
However, after the hero left, she emphasized that the people in the Holy Land should be responsible for Elena. When she was away, someone had to come every day to take care of Elena's body. Only if the Holy Land agreed to such conditions would she fight without reservation.
At first, the Holy Land also kept its promise and took care of a "corpse" that would not move, which did not take much effort.
But after three months, the Holy Land did not have the spare energy. After all, the Demon King's army came, and the Holy Land had to cheer up to deal with the attack of the demons.
Over time, they neglected to take care of Elena's body. After all, the person was unconscious, and the hero was fighting in the distance. Even if there was no care for one or two days, the person concerned might not be able to find it.
The most important thing is that in their eyes, Elena is already a dead person. They don't have the patience to care so much about a dead person. After all, they can't take care of the living.Who wants to take care of a dead person?
So no one came to the secret room where Irina's body was stored for a long time. After all, if they were too lazy to come and take care of it one day, they would not want to come the next day. Later on, no one would take care of Irina's body. After all, nothing would happen if it was left there.
When they thought of Irina again, it was the most intense period of the war. The Demon King's army had already pressed to the gate of the Holy Land. A large number of demons attacked and countless people died on the battlefield.
With the idea of humanitarianism, the high-level officials of the Holy Land would take good care of the soldiers who died in the war. No matter what, they had to bring their bodies back and bury them.
It was okay for one or two days, but the problem was that the war was going on. When they came to their senses, the bodies were piled up and there was no room for them. Even the death aura was too heavy, and the undead domain was nurtured.
If they left it alone, many undead monsters would be generated out of thin air. The front line couldn't handle it. If there were any more problems in the rear, they would not be able to resist.
At this time, they thought of the secret room where Irina was stored. Irina could not wake up, but his half-dragon body still exuded the holy breath of the white dragon, which had a natural restraining effect on the breath of death.
As long as the corpses that could not be dealt with in time were placed near Irina, the birth of the undead domain could be prevented, and the holy land would not suddenly become a paradise for the undead one day.
Thinking of this, the high-level officials of the holy land hit it off. Anyway, the basement where Irina was stored had a lot of space, and the corpse would not be placed next to Irina, so things would become simple all of a sudden. Of course, they were happy with this.
However, if the brave Irina knew that they stored the real corpse near Irina, I am afraid she would kill back immediately. I don’t know when the devil’s head will be chopped off, but she will definitely chop off the heads of these decision makers in the holy land first.
