Chapter 451 - 214: The Zombie King’s Array! The Main Room is Doomed! _3
When it comes to accent, Xu Rufeng also noticed Huo Yuluo; this unprecedented beauty has a unique accent, sometimes very coy, sometimes quite composed, which is strange.
Are these not from the same place?
"I come from a small town, just an ordinary person. This time I came to Canglan City to accompany my junior sisters for a trip, and my uncle is doing other things in Canglan City," Yuchi answered with a smile.
He was reluctant to disclose his identity, first because even if he did, others wouldn’t know him; second, the more people know his identity, the more trouble it could bring later; and third, he had no spare time to handle such matters recently.
"Ah, I see, I see, Young Master Yuchi is really modest, hahaha," Xu Rufeng, being sensible, didn’t press further since the other person didn’t say much. As for Yuchi claiming to be from a small town?
He wasn’t looking down on people from small towns; it’s mainly due to limited perspectives. Seeing so few things normally, can a small town nurture such a youth? The probability isn’t zero but is exceedingly small.
It’s like saying noble offspring from humble beginnings; the chances continue to drop.
While the two were engaged in small talk, Huo Yuluo, having finished her business, walked over to Yuchi’s side, first bowing softly with her good figure, then addressing her Sect Leader Senior Brother: "Little Master Uncle, I’ve checked the array core. It’s indeed not the Sacrificial Array; it’s an entity that crafts Yin soldiers by absorbing corpses."
"Zombie?" Yuchi threw out this term.
"Correct."
Unexpectedly, he guessed it right. Huo Yuluo confirmed:
"The basic operational logic of this entire array is very simple. It draws various grievances and flesh through array lines, all merging into the corpse at the array core. Once the array successfully finishes crafting, the corpse will acquire a certain level of revival, transforming into a terrifying flesh puppet."
Huo Yuluo gestured to the deepest part of the pit.
Previously, Song Yinghan didn’t dig deep enough to see the deepest situation; now, with everyone’s help, the entire large pit had been revealed to everyone.
It was like a volcano crater, in the center of which is a stone coffin. There are some dark patterns on the coffin, seemingly implying that these corpses were placed beside the coffin before increasing grievances in the coffin through the array.
A generation of Zombie King Jiang Chen? This thought flashed in Yuchi’s mind, then he asked: "Can anyone’s corpse serve as the array core?"
The purpose of this question is very simple. If the corpse is specially selected, then one can start from the array core’s corpse, gradually advancing the case. But if any corpse can serve as the core, there’s no way around it.
Xu Rufeng also looked at Huo Yuluo, seeking a definite answer from her. Their Celestial Craft Workshop truly wasn’t adept at such ominous and unconventional practices. Additionally, Xu Rufeng was certain that Huo Yuluo’s gaze at Yuchi seemed odd, hardly resembling that of looking at one’s little master uncle. Instead, it was like seeing a family member, or even... a lover?
It’s peculiar.
The circle is truly chaotic.
"The array core in a past life must be someone very evil; that’s the only requirement," Huo Shanlan replied gently.
"Someone very evil."
Thus, the corpse for the array core cannot be randomly chosen; it requires special selection. But can one deduce the perpetrator from this corpse itself? That’s uncertain. Somewhat pondering, Yuchi told Xu Rufeng: "I’ll leave the later matters to you."
What follows is a carpet search. As Yuchi is unfamiliar with the locality, it’s hard to contribute much to the investigation. Plus, the Celestial Craft Workshop is very formidable; if they can’t identify the opponent’s identity, Yuchi, as a foreigner, certainly wouldn’t be able to investigate it.
"Alright!"
Xu Rufeng nodded in agreement. Having confirmed the array’s purpose, one can be slightly more assured, given that compared to such sacrificial arrays, this specific array is way less destructive. Therefore, the opponent’s motive is clear: they want to craft a puppet to assist them in battle.
Such a heart deserves condemnation.
"So, is the Young Master planning to leave Canglan City?" Xu Rufeng inquired with some reluctance. He quite hoped to introduce Yuchi to their Celestial Craft Workshop people because Yuchi seemed mysterious and strong right now, reminiscent of their Celestial Craft Workshop.
Thus bringing such a figure aboard would be far more reliable than other organizations like Defense Department.
"Yes, I must leave. There are other matters requiring my attention. But when I’ve the time, I will return to Canglan City to visit again," Yuchi replied with a smile.
"Alright! Looking forward to our next meeting. Rest assured, since this incident happened around Canglan City, regarding our Celestial Craft Workshop, we will surely handle it properly. Henceforth, we’ll slowly search for the enemy; at least now we have new clues, knowing the corpse isn’t ordinary."
