From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 237 Goodbye General Skeleton

“Is this the Sword in the Stone?”

In the Elf Forest, Roja stood in the middle of a grassy field, looking at the ancient sword inserted on the stone platform in front of him.

At this time, Merlin, Komodo and other saints were standing beside him, and Merlin said:

“This sword is called the Sword of Countercurrent, and it is related to the law of time. It is said that the gods from the ancient times were inserted here by the devil Lati himself.

“It is said that before the end of the world, someone will appear who can pull it out. At that time, the final trial will begin to obtain the power inheritance of the mythical creature, the Bull of Heaven.”

The Sword of Countercurrent…The Ancient God…

Roja took two steps forward and reached out to hold the hilt of the sword.

Then he began to exert force, with energy surging throughout his body, trying to pull out the sword.

“Creak, creak…” However, even if he pushed his magic power to the extreme, the escaped power of the Styx froze the air, and could not shake the sword in the slightest.

It stands to reason that he can sink this piece of land with just one exertion of force, and he will not be able to break even a stone platform. However, this sword is obviously cast with some kind of magic, and I am afraid that it cannot be pulled out with just brute force.

Sure enough, Komodo said: “This sword is nailed to the void, and the stone platform is imprisoned by the power of the devil’s law. Those who do not meet the conditions cannot forcibly pull it out unless their strength exceeds Lati himself… “

As he said that, he stepped forward and tried to pull it out twice, but failed.

“Thousands of years have passed, and I still can’t pull it out.”

After that, all the saints came forward to try one by one, but none of them could succeed.

Merlin said: “According to Lati’s prophecy, people who draw swords should appear among young adventurers, or among the younger generation of various races in the small world. If we don’t meet the conditions, we will definitely not be able to do it.”

Is it the prophecy of General Skeleton and Arthur?

Roja was surprised when he learned about this prophecy. General Skeleton had already been killed by him, so this prophecy was destined not to come true.

As for that “Arthur”, he was probably the demigod boy he brought out of the Rubik’s Cube in the building and named “Hal”.

But according to Merlin, the adventurers found by the elves who may be the prophecy have already tried them all… Howl didn’t even pull it out?

Why? What exactly are the conditions?

Komodo said: “Then call everyone together immediately and try one by one.”

If the younger generation of the kingdom and elves were to try it one by one, it would be a huge project.

At this time, Merlin took out the Staff of Life and said to Roja: “I have a request, that is, please summon Lord Gandalf’s heroic spirit again. His knowledge and wisdom are needed at this time…”

Komodo also pulled out the Heavenly Tribulation Fire and said:

“Loya, please summon Matilda’s heroic spirit. We still want to see her again and have something to tell her.”

This request was not difficult for Roja, it was a piece of cake.

He took the staff and sword and once again cast the spell to summon heroic spirits.

With the sound of rushing water, the Styx descended here, and two illusory figures emerged. Their bodies gradually solidified, exuding a powerful magical aura.

Gandalf’s image is the same as the last summons, with disheveled silver hair and wearing white robes.

“Merlin…”

The old elf’s eyes moved, “Also, Komodo…am I actually resurrected?”

Even what he said was exactly the same as before. He didn’t remember anything about the last summons.

As for Matilda, she is a tall woman wearing red armor, with long red hair.

It stands to reason that what is summoned from the River Styx should be the appearance of the heroic spirit when it died. This legendary flame knight looks so young, so he must have died young.

Leaving the two heroic spirits with Merlin, Komodo and others, Roya left here.

As for Hal, the boy is living a peaceful and nourishing life in the Elf Forest, and he has not missed any exercise. He has no plans to meet him now.

During this period, all the strong men will not leave the Elf Forest, but will wait here for the person of prophecy to appear. When the final trial begins, Roja comes to a remote tree house prepared for him by the elves.

General Skeleton…

Roja entered the house, sat on a chair and fell into deep thought.

He casually snapped his fingers, and illusory figures appeared one after another in the room, all of which were people he had killed: ordinary mercenaries, blacksmith Black, killer Assassin, elf Finn, white eagle Genos, and villain mage. …

Before these figures could completely solidify, Roja snapped his fingers to disperse them all.

The Styx Spirit Master can re-summon the dead, an ability that he still finds very miraculous.

Finally, another illusory figure slowly emerged from the void. It was wearing gray-black full-body armor and exuded a cold aura.

——It was none other than the former Lord of the Undead Mountains, General Skeleton.

Roja just tried it and found that it could actually be summoned.

After all, General Skeleton was already an undead creature when he killed him. Even the magic stone was recovered by him and replaced with silver coins. Whether it still complies with the “afterlife process” of ordinary life, and whether it will enter the River Styx is unknown. Easy to say…

After the skeleton general’s body was completely solidified by the magic power, he stood there blankly, without saying a word.

Including legendary strongmen like Gandalf and Matilda, Roya can command the summoned heroic spirits. Under his will, the Skeleton General cannot even speak independently.

After all, the purpose of pulling it out of the River Styx was not to reminisce about the past. Roja sat on the chair and asked directly: “Have you heard of the Sword of the Countercurrent?”

He wanted to know what the “prophesied undead” would do if faced with the current situation.

“The Sword of Countercurrent…”

General Skeleton spoke slowly: “I once heard a legend…”

…

Ten minutes later, Roja waved his hand, and the skeleton general sighed and gradually disappeared.

The other party told him a myth and legend, which gave him some inspiration.

It is said that the God King Chronos dug gravel from the river of time, mixed it with his own divine blood, and forged a divine sword that could affect time…

Roja took out an hourglass – a time-traveling hourglass. The shell seemed to be made of gold and colorless crystal, and it was filled with sparkling silver sand.

Without his appearance, the Eagle Group would have made a deal with the church to obtain holy relics and gospel weapons. If they failed to attack General Skeleton, this prop would most likely fall into General Skeleton’s hands.

Then Roja took out a small ice crystal bottle, which contained solidified red blood.

This is the blood of Hal, a demigod. Roja once took part of it from the boy in the past…
