"Infinite life? That's really enviable." Isidor looked at Zamdrow, froze him with another frost, and then smashed him into pieces with his greatsword.
However, even the frozen fragments still grew buds and quickly gathered together, so fast that Isidor had no time to react.
"I've told you many times that you can't kill me." Zamdrol said gloomily.
"It's really a tricky ability. It would be great if there was a Jie Ma Chao at a time like this... No, maybe I really do have a way." Isidor thought for a moment, and suddenly put his hand on his heart.
"Haha, are you crazy? You actually walked into a trap. But it's good this way, as it can save you from the fear before death." Zamdrol was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed, and hurriedly climbed up along Isidor's arm.
"Use the skill 'Compulsion' to deprive the Demon Lord 'Zam' of his immortality." Isidor said coldly.
"What? You actually have this ability? You were actually granted the supreme power! Have we been abandoned? No, I will never admit it!" Feeling the power in his body slipping away, Zamdrow became more and more crazy. His penis pierced directly into Isidor's flesh and began to inject some kind of digestive fluid into his body, trying to eat Isidor directly before his own immortality was taken away.
Compulsion is a very overbearing skill that can directly deprive the opponent of his ability and use it for your own benefit. But until now, Isidor finally used it once. This is because the activation of compulsion is subject to many restrictions. First of all, you must directly contact the target to be deprived, which takes a long time. It can neither be interrupted nor take other actions in the middle. It can be said that once used, you will also be in a defenseless state.
Because of this, this move can only be used after defeating or subduing the enemy. When you already have the power to defeat the enemy, you often no longer need to deprive him of his ability and occupy the three precious "force" slots. Therefore, until today, Isidor used it on the Demon Lord.
"Force" did not disappoint Isidor. Zamdrol's heart was getting darker and darker, and he was not far from his true death. But at the same time, the crazy counterattack of the demon king before his death also made Isidor very painful. He felt that his body was slowly dissolving, and he even began to stand unsteadily.
"If we go on like this, we will both die. How about a deal? We will both stop, and I will no longer bother you, and you will just treat me as dead. How about that? This will be of great benefit to you! As long as the contract with the Well of Eternity is still there, I will not really die. Even if you kill my body again, it will only make my soul return to nothingness. After thousands or even tens of thousands of years, I will be resurrected again. But if you die, you are really dead!" Zamdrow said in a trembling voice.
"Are you scared? The immortal demon king actually has times when he is afraid of death? I won't believe you, never. Even if you are telling the truth, I will not let go of anyone who tries to kill me." Isidor looked at Zamdrol fiercely. Even though his internal organs had begun to melt, he still did not stop casting spells.
A moment later, a heart stopped beating forever.
Chapter 124: Immortality
"It hurts so much, it feels like my bones have melted away..."
Isidor opened his eyes and immediately wanted to stand up, but found that his whole body was limp - it was not that he had no strength, but his body had really become as soft as noodles.
"You finally woke up. I thought you would never wake up again." Emmeline's voice came from the side.
Isidor looked around and found himself still in the ruins of the palace, lying on a blanket. The chief of the bone-worshipping tribe was also standing beside him. It was probably because Emmeline had moved him here after she regained her strength.
"I killed Zham'drow, but before he died he seemed to have injected something into my body, and I felt like my body was dissolving." Isidor said as he tried to raise his arm again, but still failed.
"I thought you were dead at first and cried a lot, but when I calmed down, I found that your breathing was steady and you seemed to be fine. But your insides seemed to have mostly melted. I really don't know how you survived." Emmeline said, rubbing her red eyes.
"I seem to have seized the power of the Demon Lord." Isidor then remembered what had just happened, so he opened the system and looked at his own panel:
[Name: Isidor]
[Race: Mysterious Goblin]
[Profession: Shaman/Ranger]
【Life: 1564/1564】
[Magic power: 550/550]
[Endurance: 1042/1042]
[Spirit: 550/550]
【Strength: 1274】
[Agility: 907]
【Ghost value 666】
[Special skills: Temperance, Compulsion (Immortality), Fantasy Construction]
[Racial skills: Stick Mastery LV10, Fully Evolved, Void Shock Wave, Evil Advent]
【职业技能：灵巧LV6、刀剑精通LV9、旋风斩LV10、预知LV1、灵魂操作LV1】
Isidor looked at it carefully and found that he had indeed taken the skill called immortality from Zamdrow. This was probably the real reason why he did not die.
In addition, I also added a "Shaman" profession, and it is ranked before the Ranger. As for the extra foresight and soul manipulation, they are probably the additional skills of the Shaman profession.
Isidor looked at the description of the immortal body, but this skill that was so powerful that it was like a cheat only had a brief introduction of "making the holder immune to death and increasing health by 1000 points." However, Isidor could still feel that it was this skill that protected him from death, and even the dissolved body tissues seemed to be gradually recovering.
"You can even seize the power of the Demon Lord? I am finding you increasingly difficult to understand." Emmeline did not show much surprise, as if she had long been accustomed to Isidor's unusual behavior.
"Speaking of which, how is your right arm?" Isidor asked, looking at Emmeline's drooping arm.
"It's unconscious. I guess it can't be used anymore." Emmeline said nonchalantly.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I don't have a better idea." Isidor said with some guilt.
"I have been prepared to die for a long time. Now I can defeat the Demon Lord at the cost of only an arm. It is already a bargain." Emmeline said.
"Let me help you fix it." Isidor said, and he used the Evil Advent to summon tentacles to support his body and sit up. Then he manipulated the tentacles to bandage Emmeline's arm with a bandage, and then fixed it with a splint to prevent further damage.
"I'm sorry, I don't have a complete cure for now. But I think if we find Esna, she should have a way," said Isidor.
"Speaking of this, I found this thing where the Demon Lord fell. Do you know what it is?" Emmeline said, taking a twenty-sided dice from the table and placing it in front of Isidor.
"Is this... the Dice Girl?" Isidor happily took the dice with his tentacles, but found that it seemed impossible to open it.
Isidor remembered the contract he had signed with Dice Girl before, and tried to sense it with his mental power, only to find that Dice Girl's mental value had reached the bottom.
Fortunately, the contract between the two parties was still there, and Isidor used the power of the contract to continuously transfer his mental power to the dice girl. With the continuous injection of mental power, the surface of the dice began to vibrate slightly. When the mental power was injected to more than three hundred, the twenty sides of the dice slowly opened and stretched into a petite girl.
"Wow! Master! I thought I would never see you again in this life!" As soon as Dice Lady woke up, she threw herself on Isidor and burst into tears.
"Okay, okay, everything is fine. But why did you suddenly appear here?" Isidor asked curiously.
"When I was teleported, I wanted to follow the master, but I was eaten by the disgusting Rotten Flesh Demon Lord. He swallowed me in his stomach and wanted to absorb my knowledge. I closed my heart and hid in the demon's heart until the master rescued me. Master, please comfort me, Dice Lady is scared." As Dice Lady spoke, she kept wrapping her limbs around Isidor in a very intimate manner, which made Emmeline beside her a little unhappy.
"Hey, what's going on?" Emmeline reached out and picked up the dice girl, and asked with a bad look on her face.
"It's a long story. She is a magical creature and I picked her up by accident. It was Esna who helped me tame her, but you hadn't joined the team at that time, so you probably didn't know much. Anyway, this guy claims to know everything, so maybe you can ask her about Esna's whereabouts." Isidor said.
"So that's how it is! I'm sorry, do you really know the whereabouts of my sister?" Emmeline was shocked. She hurriedly put Dice Girl carefully on the bed and asked gently.
"Dice Lady... has consumed too much energy. If you want to use the query function now, you need to sleep for a long time before you can recover. But if the master needs it, Dice Lady is willing to query." Dice Lady turned her head and looked at Isidor and said.
"Please help us find Esina's location. This is very important to us." Isidor nodded.
"Okay, little Dice Lady, who knows everything - check, check, check..." Dice Lady sat cross-legged on Isidor, closed her eyes and sang.
"Is this guy really reliable?" Emmeline asked in a low voice.
"This little thing is very mysterious, but a lot of the information she provided me before has indeed come true - even including this danger," said Isidor.
"So powerful! Isn't it stronger than my sister's divination magic?" Emmeline said in surprise.
"Found it! The annoying Esuna is right...near the White Deer City." Dice Girl said, opening her eyes.
"White Deer City?" Hearing this unfamiliar name, Emilyne hurriedly took out the map and started looking for it. After a long while, she finally found a place called White Deer Castle on the edge of the map.
"Is the City of White Deer in the far east?" Emily asked, holding the map.
"It's in the east, very far, but not very, very far." Dice Lady answered in a dreamy voice with half of her eyelids drooping.
"Then we can probably be sure that this is the place. Although there is a castle but no city here, there is indeed only one place named Bailu. Die girl, can the location you found be more precise? The area near Bailu Castle is very large, and it may be difficult to find." Emilyne asked.
"In a place with a river...no matter how precise...Dice Girl's eyelids...are stuck with glue..." As Dice Girl spoke, she fell asleep and her body slowly shrank into the dice.
Chapter 125: Feathers from Heaven
"It seems that we need to go to the East." Isidor used his tentacles to put away the dice girl and looked at the small circle on the map representing the White Deer City.
"Judging from the location on the map, Bailu City is at least several thousand miles away from here. Add to that the mountains and rivers we have to cross, and it's probably at least ten thousand miles away. We don't know wind magic, so even if we prepare a carriage, it will take some time to get there. When we get there, we may not even know if my sister will still be there." Emmeline said with a worried look on her face.
"It would be great if there was teleportation magic so we could get there in an instant." Isidor sighed.
"I don't want to be hit by that demon with many wings again. I don't know how he found us." Emmeline shook her head.
Thinking of the sudden arrival of the Thousand Winged Demon Lord that day, Isidor felt a lingering fear. Although he had defeated Zamdrol, there were still many potential enemies threatening his life and the lives of those he cherished.
Moreover, his soul still had not been able to completely break free from the bondage of the Seven Kings' Well Contract. From any angle, he had to find a way to deal with these guys.
"Since we don't need to teleport, I have an idea about how to get on the road," said Isidor.
"What's the idea?"
"Among the evil creatures I summoned, there is a ghost bird that can fly. As long as we feed it with blood, it can carry us to fly. We don't have to carry so much luggage like Esna, and if we only have you and me on board, as long as there is enough blood, the ghost bird can fly a thousand miles a day, and we can reach Bailu City in just a few days." Isidor said.
"That's great! Please call out the ghost bird and ask it to take us to find our sister!" After hearing this, the sadness on Emmeline's face immediately disappeared and she jumped up with joy.
"Don't be in a hurry. There are a lot of messes waiting to be cleaned up here. I am the king of goblins in name after all. It won't be too late to arrange things first. Besides, my body has not fully recovered, and it is a bit inconvenient for me to move now." Isidor said, casting Evil Coming to summon the ghost bird.
Although the ghost bird was a bird, it looked more like a lizard with wings, with a bone helmet covering its head, which made it look like it was wearing a mask. It was several times larger than the largest harpy, and it exuded an ominous aura.
"I'm afraid that no adventurer below A-rank can deal with this strange bird. In addition to the advantage of flying, if it suddenly appears in a place like Piedmont, the Adventurer's Association will probably have to urgently call for S-rank adventurers to deal with it." Emmeline sighed.
"But for a top archer like you, it's just a matter of one or two arrows." Isidor smiled and called the old chief of the Bone Worshiping Tribe, asking him to ride the ghost bird to the Goblin Kingdom to bring the other three chiefs over.
The ghost bird was indeed very fast, and it completed the round trip of 500 miles in just one day.
Isidor first talked about what had happened during this period and announced his decision to leave for a while, and then told the four chiefs about the follow-up arrangements:
"After I leave, you must live in harmony with the Hibran people and learn their knowledge and technology. I have controlled the mind of their king, and I have ordered him to provide a large amount of supplies and goods to aid the Goblin Kingdom in the future, but you must not act recklessly because of this. It just so happens that after the battle with the Demon King, more than half of the royal city was destroyed, and the Hibran people also fled. You go back and bring some people to help them rebuild the royal city as a sign of friendship. But if there are any ignorant guys, you can kill them as a warning to the rest, so that people don't think that goblins are easy to bully."
As Isidor spoke, he reached out and pulled off a red cloth beside him, revealing white silver and several bulging cloth bags.
"Here is a sum of silver I have built, which is roughly equivalent to three years of tax revenue for the Hibran people. Divide it into three parts. Leave one part to the old chief of the Bone Worshiping Tribe to set up spies and make friends with the dignitaries here; take another part back and distribute it to the goblins so that they can also buy the goods of the Hibran people; take the third part back and store it for emergency use. These cloth bags contain saplings, go back and find a suitable place to plant them. The fruit of this tree is poisonous, but it can greatly increase the power of the user. Give a small amount to the adult tribesmen, and immediately use excessive labor to offset the side effects of the poison after taking it, and over time, there will be a huge improvement. My trip is very urgent, and I cannot tell you everything one by one. I believe you can handle it as appropriate and make our Goblin Kingdom prosperous."
"Your Majesty has thought of this for us, we will definitely live up to your expectations!" After hearing Isidor's arrangement, the four chiefs knelt on the ground to express their gratitude. Enges, who had followed Isidor the earliest, even began to shed tears.
After bidding farewell to the four chiefs, Isidor and Emmeline rode the ghost bird all the way east. The speed of the ghost bird was not much faster than that of the world's top mounts, but it had the advantage of being able to fly high in the sky, without having to travel through mountains and rivers, and also saving the trouble of passing through city passes.
The two of them would go down every other day, catch some monsters and beasts, drain their blood and feed them to the ghost bird, and then pick out some good meat to eat. Isidor had the ability to construct fantasy, and he could make all kinds of pots and pans with ease, so the food they ate in the wild was not only not mediocre, but even considered good food under Emmeline's cooking.
After flying for several days and nights, the two finally arrived at the White Deer City marked on the map. After several days and nights of rest, Isidor's body had almost recovered and no longer needed to rely on tentacles to move.
In order to prevent the appearance of the ghost bird from causing panic, Isidor took back the ghost bird more than a hundred miles away from the city, and walked to a farm with Emmeline, intending to use the silver coins made by fantasy to buy two horses at a nearby farm to continue their journey.
The owner of the farm was a fat man with eyes as small as slits. He showed off his big belly and quoted a number that was obviously much higher than the market price.
"You can buy ten horses in Rodria for this price." Isidor certainly had no shortage of money, but he still felt unhappy about being taken advantage of.
"Hahaha, it seems that you two are not locals, right? I'm not making a random offer. I bought it at a high price from a nearby horse farm. If you think it's expensive, I also think it's expensive. Recently, countless people come to me to buy livestock food. You came early today, so I'll still sell it to you at yesterday's price. Maybe the price will increase by 20% in the afternoon." The farm owner said with a smile.
"Your place is so remote, how come so many people come to buy horse food?" Isidor said puzzledly.
"It can be said that it was a blessing in disguise. One night more than a month ago, there was a loud noise in the sky. I was sleeping like a dead pig, and it was my wife who woke me up. I was afraid that the animals would be frightened, so I quickly put on my clothes and ran to the yard. I looked up and saw white spots in the sky. There were continuous ping-pong sounds, as if something was constantly exploding from the west to the east, and fell about 20 miles away from Bailu City. Half of the east wall of Bailu City collapsed at that time. A brave person went to see and found that the ground was full of light and soft feathers. He took them to the alchemist in the city and they were immediately identified as top-grade alchemical materials. One feather was valued at ten silver coins! When the news came, the villages within a dozen miles were all shocked. One by one, they ran with baskets to pick up money, but they picked up nothing of the feathers on the ground." The farm owner cleared his throat and continued:
"After checking the feathers, everyone thought the matter was over. But unexpectedly, feathers would occasionally fall from the sky, and someone dug up a kind of white crystal in the ground. The alchemist said that it was a magic crystal. A small one cost several gold coins, and a large one could be worth hundreds of gold coins! Everyone went crazy! They rushed over to dig, but unexpectedly, some white monsters ran out from the ground while digging, injuring many people. Since then, ordinary people dared not get close, and only brave and powerful adventurers dared to go in and make a fortune. I was disabled and didn't catch up with the good times, but I also made a lot of supplies by selling them." The farm owner said proudly.
Chapter 126 White World
After hearing what the farm owner said, Isidor and Emilyne looked at each other briefly, then bought horses and rode towards White Deer City.
"The white light and explosion sounds from west to east, plus the feathers flying all over the sky, what do you think of?" Seeing that there was no one around, Isidor stopped his horse and turned to ask Emmeline.
"The floating feathers may come from the Thousand-Winged Demon Lord Taimur. The continuous white lights and explosions may be a battle with my sister?" Emmeline guessed.
"We have all witnessed how powerful the Demon Lord is. After his resurrection, Zamdre claimed that he had only recovered 30% of his strength, and we tried our best, but the result was only a narrow victory. Based on your understanding, does Esina really have such strong power to compete with the Demon Lord?" asked Isidor.
"I don't actually know that much about my sister. She sent me a lot of books for me to study, including many books she wrote, but apart from the books on archery instruction, most of them are knowledge-based. I can feel that she is a knowledgeable person, but I know nothing about her fighting ability." Emmeline shook her head.
"In the battle against the Demon Lord, it is impossible for Esina not to have given it her all. If the person who fought the Demon Lord here was really Esina, then the only explanation is that she was considering protecting us at the time, so she held back." Isidor sighed.
"Is my sister okay? The Demon Lord is so powerful, maybe she has already..."
"No, the Dice Lady was able to locate her, which means she must still be alive. Let's go to the scene and make a judgment." Isidor said.
So the two of them rode their horses at full speed all the way to Bailu City. After less than thirty miles, they saw a sea of white all around them - the soil, trees, flowers, grass, rocks, all turned white.
Isidor casually broke a piece of rock and found that not only the surface but also the inside of the rock had turned completely white and had a crisp texture, which was somewhat similar to the substance he had cursed with his golden sword.
Isidor looked around and saw that everything he could see had turned this miserable white, as if it had just snowed heavily.
"Have you learned about this phenomenon?" Isidor turned and asked.
"No, but I have read similar stories. The beginning is a very boring love tragedy, and in the ending the heroine is heartbroken and cries until the sky and the earth turn white." Emmeline said.
"Esina actually lets you read this kind of book." Isidor got on the horse again and continued to move forward with Emmeline. When they were ten miles away, the white ground suddenly cracked, and several snow-white monsters jumped out and rushed over.
Isidor raised his hand and fired several fireballs at the white beast. Several monsters were blown away by the powerful force of the fireballs, but they were still alive and kicking after falling to the ground, and surrounded him to prepare for a second attack.
Isidor was a little surprised. Although he fired these fireballs casually, their power was enough to reduce thick-skinned monsters such as scaly bears and giant minotaurs to ashes. He didn't expect that they were just repelled.
"Isidor, try hitting them with ice," said Emmeline.
Isidor nodded, raised his hand and shot out a few more ice cones. This time, several monsters were pierced by the ice cones and turned into ashes while wailing.
"That's amazing! How do you know they are afraid of ice?" Isidor asked in surprise.
