From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 174 The inheritance in the ruins

Two days later, City of Order.

The City Lord’s Mansion is located in the center of the city and is the headquarters of the City of Order Adventurer’s Guild.

It is a white multi-story flat-roofed building with many columns, surrounded by a large square covered with green vegetation, also known as the “Silver Palace”.

“I’ll take you to see the deputy city lord.”

Philip came here wearing a black robe. Under the leadership of an Orc Guild employee, he walked into the interior of this solemn mansion.

Finally, he once again saw the most powerful female warrior in the middle area, the four-winged white bird Angel, in a room on the second floor.

Angel stood by the window with his hands behind his back, seeming to be looking at the scenery outside.

In the mansion, she did not wear leather or steel armor, but a pair of pure white cotton gloves and a slim-fitting white military uniform.

With long, loose silver hair, a tall and straight figure, and an indifferent profile, his temperament looks more majestic and colder than before.

“Hello, Mr. Angel.”

Philip bowed slightly and saluted to express his greetings to this strong man.

He came here today as an external employee of the guild to report to the deputy city lord.

Although as an adventurer, he does not need to work in the Silver Palace permanently, he still has to come over to collect some identification documents and formally say hello to his direct superior.

“I remember your name was Philip.”

Angel turned around from the window, looked at the boy for a few seconds, and then said:

“You don’t need to do anything else. The guild will naturally look for you when it needs to ask for help, and you need to report your itinerary to me when you leave the City of Order.”

“Yes, sir.”

Being stared at by the other party’s extremely oppressive gaze, Philip couldn’t help but lower his head.

He quietly took a few deep breaths before he felt that the violent beating of his heart due to nervousness had calmed down a bit.

Angel Shiratori can become the deputy city lord of the City of Order and manage so many powerful level six adventurers. His strength is indeed not at the same level as that of an ordinary captain.

“Besides, there’s one more thing.”

The female warrior turned to the orc staff and said, “Go and call Rex.”

After a while, a tall and burly young male mage wearing black robes and a smile on his face walked in.

“Lord Angel, are you looking for me?”

He glanced at Phillip next to him from the corner of his eyes, and then saluted the female warrior.

——The sixth-level great mage may be stronger than the captain.

Philip guessed the man’s level by comparing it with Barbara.

Moreover, he also felt an extremely cold undead power from the other party, whose purity and quantity were far superior to his own.

Could it be what Angel mentioned before…

“Necromancer, sixth-level great wizard, Rex.”

Angel stretched out his hand expressionlessly and introduced the man to Phillip:

“Rex also graduated from Holy Dawn Academy. Although his professional title is water magician, he also has some research on necromancy.

“He is also my subordinate. He is mainly responsible for performing spiritual interrogation techniques on dead souls. Although you are different in strength, you can be regarded as colleagues with the same responsibilities.”

“It turns out you’re new, hello.”

Rex smiled and took the initiative to reach out and shake the boy’s hand.

The other party’s broad and thick palms were very powerful. Rex’s first impression on Philip was that of a passionate and strong-willed person.

Moreover, the other party is very young, too young!

He may be a little younger than Calvin, and he is not of the same generation as Barbara, who is also a sixth-level magician.

Angel said quietly:

“Rex is less than 25 years old and is already a Grand Mage. He is known as a super genius who hopes to be promoted to a legendary mage at the age of 30.

“He is mainly practicing in the lower area now. Although he is still my subordinate, maybe I won’t be qualified to use him next year, right? Rex?”

“Haha, maybe it won’t be until next year.”

The burly mage smiled and said without any modest words: “But as long as Lord Angel is in need, I will come to the City of Order to help.”

The female warrior did not comment on this, but said:

“You should have some time to guide the newcomer. His spiritual questioning technique didn’t reveal anything last time.”

The male mage glanced at Phillip, smiled and nodded, “Okay.”

“And one more thing.”

Angel continued to say calmly: “Relics Conflict Spiral, Rex, you take Philip in with you.”

She pointed to the boy beside her.

“…Okay.” The male mage hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Philip showed a surprised expression.

He now knew that it was the relic left by the demon god Lati, and he thought that he would not have a chance to go in now, because the teleportation spells were limited and should have been allocated long ago.

“In the ruins, there is an inheritance of the undead system. Rex has gained a lot from it over the years. You can also follow him to get some benefits.”

Angel said expressionlessly: “That inheritance trial trained a legendary necromancer hundreds of years ago.

“Although the legendary mage is dead, the undead monsters he left behind are even still in the lower labyrinth, threatening the safety of guild adventurers…”

She turned to look at Rex, “You haven’t gotten the final undead treasure that the legendary mage got in the ruins, right?”

“That’s right.”

Rex smiled helplessly, “Otherwise I wouldn’t have come to this ruins this year.”

Angel nodded, “Although the inheritance of the undead system is not the best, it is indeed the most suitable thing for you. Once you get it, becoming a legendary mage is almost certain.”

The ultimate treasure? What is the best inheritance in the ruins?

Phillip was a little curious, but he didn’t ask here.

“Go and do your work.” After that, Angel motioned for the two of them to leave.

Philip walked out of the house with the burly male mage.

“Let’s go and have a chat.”

The male mage said, putting his hand on the young man’s shoulder, and led him to a quiet tavern.

The two ordered something and sat opposite each other in the corner.

Rex smiled and asked: “What do you think of Mr. Angel?”

Phillip said doubtfully: “It feels a little scary to be looked at by her…”

“Oh, that’s how it is……”

Rex showed a thoughtful expression, “The deputy city lord’s identity on the ground is actually the royal princess of a small Flügel country, so she must be more majestic than ordinary adventurers…”

Royal princess?

Philip was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Angel to have such an identity, although he didn’t know why Rex said this…

“Ahem.”

Rex coughed twice and got down to business: “I have a teleportation charm that can bring you in, so you just need to join me when the ruins are opened.”

“Say it in advance. I can lead you into the conflict spiral, but you must listen to my arrangements along the way, because I also have my own goals when I go in.”

His target is obviously the ultimate inheritance treasure of the undead system that Angel mentioned.

“I understand, thank you, Mr. Rex.” Philip said sincerely.

The male mage smiled and said, “I’m not much older than you, just call me Rex.”

There is not much age difference between the two, and after a few words exchanged, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.

“Ta, ta…”

At this time, the young and beautiful elf waiter came over with a sweet smile and placed two large glasses of bright yellow ale with thick white foam floating on the table.

“cheers!”

Phillip and Rex clinked glasses, took a big sip of wine, and asked curiously:

“Rex, besides the undead system, are there any other inheritances in the ruins?”

Although he knew some information from Barbara before, he did not understand it in detail.

“There are too many, including almost all power attributes, those disciples who inherited many inheritances from the demon god, and outstanding mages of the same generation.”

The male mage smiled, “But the most precious thing is, of course, the inheritance of power from the Demon God Lati himself, the Bull of Heaven.

“The bull of the sky, the bird of fire, the ouroboros… Only by gaining the power of these mythical creatures can a mortal become a demon god who transcends all living beings.”
