Foreign Land Reclamation By a Vegetable-growing Skeleton

Lisa carefully stepped into the boundary of the temple. The temple usually didn’t have a wall, but it did have a clear edge. The fence would rise if the Silver Skeleton got angry. The fence, usually hidden underground, was the boundary of the temple.

Lisa put one foot in, seeing that the Silver Skeleton had no reaction, she put both feet in. While cautiously watching the Silver Skeleton, she quickly walked towards the direction of the angelic skeleton.

Her attention was all on the Silver Skeleton, so when she got closer, she didn’t notice the wings behind the angelic skeleton.

Watching her approach, the angelic skeleton tilted its head in confusion, while its body leaned forward like a bow ready to shoot. As Lisa stepped into its attack range, its wings suddenly spread, and it lunged at her.

“Hey, what are you doing, wings? Birdman? Ow…” Lisa was knocked back, her hair disheveled, looking miserable.

Looking at the angelic skeleton who, despite being leashed by the neck, still wanted to kick, Lisa couldn’t help but laugh, “I understand why you were leashed now. You’re a fighting bird, huh? What’s going on? Why is there a Battle Angel here?”

Anna cautiously slipped in, looking at the angelic skeleton, and said, “It’s not a

Battle Angel. There’s no sacred aura.”

Lan, being watched by the Silver Skeleton, couldn’t come in and yelled anxiously from outside, “Whatever it is, first get her dressed.”

“Oh, oh, oh.” Anna hurriedly polished a ring on her hand, and then, with a flip of her hand, a piece of white clothing appeared in her hand. It was a storage ring.

She cautiously approached to put the clothes on the other person, but was unsurprisingly met with an attack.

Anna lunged forward, lowered her shoulder, stepped forward, and bumped into the angelic skeleton’s body, sending it flying.

A shoulder bump tested the angelic skeleton’s level, which made Anna more audacious. She reached out and grabbed the angelic skeleton’s ankle, pulling it back from the air.

Her feet scuffled backwards, dragging the angelic skeleton to the end of the rope. Both the body and the rope were taut, suspended in the air.

The rope was wrapped around its neck, and Anna was holding its ankle. The angelic skeleton’s body was suspended in the air, incapable of exerting any force, it could only futilely kick its legs.

Anna threw the clothes to Lisa, grabbed the other leg of the angelic skeleton, lifted it more securely in the air, and said, “Hurry, get her dressed.”

Lisa looked worriedly at the angelic skeleton’s neck and couldn’t help saying,

“You… you are being too rough, aren’t you? Be careful not to strangle her.”

“It won’t, it won’t as long as you’re quick. If you dawdle, she might strangle herself,” Anna said anxiously.

Lisa hastily dressed the angelic skeleton. Just as she put it down, Anna regretted it because she had taken out a white gown, which was a bit long for the angelic skeleton, and as soon as she put it down, it rolled on the ground…

Anna lunged at it again, stubbornly enduring several punches from the angelic skeleton, and forcefully restrained it. She tore off the overly long part, leaving it just above the knees. This way, at least it didn’t drag, but the stains on the clothes couldn’t be removed, making the clothing look dirty.

“What on earth is this thing?” Having finally finished dressing it, Anna had the leisure to voice her own question. She noticed that the other party’s moves were very flexible, but its range of movement was restricted by the rope. And it also lacked strength, otherwise it wouldn’t have been so easy to restrain it.

Lisa, with the leisure of observing with her soul, quickly concluded, “A skeleton. A skeleton with flesh on it. God, a flesh-adorned angelic skeleton.

This must be one of Lord Angels concoctions.”

“Uh, where did Lord Ange go?” Anna asked.

Frankly speaking, it was not easy to find someone in the Undead Temple who could communicate normally. In the end, it was the Minotaur Aunt who told them: “Oh, Lord went to find a new planting ground, it was the City Lord who took him there.”

Under Feilin’s guidance, Ange came to the cultivation area of the underground city. This was the primary food production area of the underground city, supporting the food needs of over 5,000 inhabitants, all of which was grown from here.

Although it is called a cultivation area, it is actually a series of Sky Pits deep underground. With the erosion of flowing water, the ground caves in, forming a straight up and down Sky Pit. After many years, it has accumulated fertile soil at the bottom, serving as an area suitable for growing crops.

There are dozens of these Sky Pits near the underground city. The seven with the best conditions have been developed into cultivation areas, and Feilin has brought Ange to one of them.

Because it’s deep underground, the Resting Wind on the surface can’t reach inside the pit, but it brings up another problem — a lack of light.

On the edge of the Sky Pit, there’s a large Illumination Magic Array engraved into the rock wall. Aisike is in front of the array, injecting her last bit of Magic Power into it, then gasping for breath: “Oh my, I’m old, I’m so worn out. It’s just the third time and I’m already exhausted. In the past, I could easily do it seven times a day.”

Feilin was annoyed by these words. Was he not mocking him?

“Are you as old as me? You’re not even sixty and you’re always complaining about being old. It’s not age, you’re just lazy.”

Upon hearing that, Aisike shot up to his feet, turned his head and smirked at

Feilin: “How come you’re here? Uh, who’s this? Huh?”

The entire city knew about the arrival of a mysterious stranger, especially because the Undead Temple had been reopened and there was talk about visiting the field of Luminous Moss. Everyone clearly felt the presence of the stranger.

Although Feilin had kept it strictly confidential, everyone guessed that it was likely related to the Undead Empire because Feilin had been everywhere swapping Soul Crystals for food.

It was one thing to know about it, but Feilin strictly forbade everyone from disturbing Ange. So Aisike had never seen this mysterious person. He had only heard from others that he was a skeleton.

So now, the skeleton, which Feilin reverently accompanied, must undoubtedly be that mysterious person. But how come this skeleton looked so familiar?

Ange waved at him, tilting his head.

That head-tilting gesture instantly confirmed Aisike’s suspicion: “Is it really you?”

The mysterious person rumored around town was the clueless skeleton he had brought back? At the time, he had thought the skeleton was too exposed out there in the wilderness and had assured him that the underground city was very safe.

How could there possibly be any place unsafe for a being of his level? It was too embarrassing, too shameful; Aisike felt his face turn red.

“What are you guys here for?” Aisike quickly changed the subject.

“Farms. Lord Ange wanted to see those abandoned fields to see if there’s any way to start planting again.” Feilin explained.

“Lord Ange?” Aisike suddenly remembered something else, “Is the Luminous Moss supplementing light a technology of Lord Ange? It’s really practical! Before we had Luminous Moss, we had to supplement our Magic Power seven times a day and even then the light was barely sufficient. Now, supplementing three times, the light is already enough..”
