Chapter 380: Chapter 217: Father of the Undead of the World_1

This crow...

Gu Qingyi, Shi Zhen, and the others were at their wits’ end with this chatty marvel of a crow, truly unsure of how Lu Ran cultivated it.

"Lead the way."

The next moment, Lin Nian spoke with a light smile, evidently appreciating the crow.

It was a pity it already had an owner; otherwise, she would have liked to raise a crow like this herself.

If it also had two bodies, perhaps they could even perform a comic dialogue for her together.

"Alright." The three international friends still found it rather odd.

...

Naturally, Lu Ran would not entertain these guests at his home, but took them instead to one of his territories—atop Jade Mountain.

In the Green Sea, the scarcely populated wilderness was already under the control of Lu Ran’s subordinates.

To better operate in these areas, Lu Ran even used the power of extraordinary beings to build himself dwellings.

Under Dark Crow’s lead, Gu Qingyi and the others arrived at Jade Mountain and saw Lu Ran processing souls there.

One after the other, the bodies of giant Flame Ant Beasts were stacked to one side, and behind the bodies was a pile of souls, densely packed spiritual bodies aflame with gray flames, creating an exceptionally eerie atmosphere.

"..."

Upon seeing this, King Caesar of the International League twitched his eyelids.

The undead undercover agent, Noren, swallowed hard, thinking my gosh, he had never seen such an array even in Reaper.

Meanwhile, Dr. Pal managed to maintain a forcedly calm expression and said, "Professor Lu Ran, hello."

"I am Dr. Pal·Carxis, a life sciences doctorate from the International League’s Research Institute, and I have also spent a long time researching the domain of life and souls."

"This time, representing the International League, I have come to gain a deeper understanding of the situation you described in the Evolutionary Secret Realm."

"This is Mr. Noren, a former undercover agent implanted by the International League within Reaper. Not long after gaining control over Resurgence of Death, he started to lose his mental clarity due to consuming the souls of Evil Beasts, nearly going mad, but was thankfully rescued in time. Now, relying on tranquilizers + abstaining from feeding his pet beast, he can more or less function normally."

Lu Ran put away the Soul Fire at his fingertips and looked at the young man with dark circles under his eyes, Noren, saying, "So, your method of verification is to use the feedback from Mr. Noren’s undead pet beast’s feeding, right?"

"That’s correct, it’s the first step and the simplest method of confirmation," stated Dr. Pal.

"It’s possible," Lu Ran said, glancing at the sallow-faced young man with dark circles, and continued, "Those, just eat as you please."

He pointed towards the surrounding processed Flame Ant souls.

"Still eating souls..." The undead undercover looked towards Dr. Pal for her input, knowing that both his and his pet beast’s mental state were already on the brink; just one more soul consumed would surely drive him to complete madness, losing rationality, and indiscriminately attacking.

"Trust Professor Lu," Dr. Pal said, not sure if Lu Ran was pulling a fast one, but at that moment, they had no other choice.

"Alright." If the undead pet beast didn’t eat something soon, even if it didn’t lose its mind, it would likely disperse due to a lack of energy. The undercover agent gritted his teeth and summoned his own pet beast.

It was a black Undead Gorilla, and though it was a spiritual body, it still gave off the impression of being painfully emaciated...

In its greenish eyes, almost devoid of emotion, there seemed to be only instinct left; sensing the vibes of food, its gaze subconsciously trembled.

"Go, eat those," the undercover agent directed towards the pile of Flame Ant Beast souls, and in the next moment, the Undead Gorilla cried out excitedly, scurrying over to grab the Flame Ant Beast souls and stuff them in its mouth.

As it consumed a large number of souls, the typically numb face of the Undead Gorilla began to slowly recover a trace of vitality.

"What’s the feeling!" Seeing this, Dr. Pal asked the undercover agent hurriedly.

At that moment, Noren was shocked as he watched his beast gorge itself; his mind was inexplicably clear.

To know, in the past, as the undead pet beast devoured souls to a certain extent, even the consciousness of the Beast Trainer would be thrown into disarray, leading to hallucinations.

But now, he was certain he had never been more lucid. Even though both the beast and he were at their limit, as the beast consumed more, they did not feel any discomfort whatsoever!!

On the contrary, he could distinctly sense the pleasure from deep within the undead pet beast—it was the long-forgotten joy of being a "life," relishing the effect-free feeding.

"ROAR!!!" The Undead Gorilla kept eating and roaring with excitement.

Noren took a step back, not only that, but he also felt that these side-effect-free souls provided his pet beast with more abundant and higher quality nutrition. If this were the food of the future, he believed his undead pet beast would likely grow to have extremely strong basic attributes.

"It’s true, it’s real..." Noren marveled at the young man with disbelief.

Having been called by the International League to conduct this kind of experiment, as someone "on the brink of losing himself," he was initially a bit resistant; after all, if it failed, he might truly be done for.

But now he was excited, grateful that he could come to witness this grand achievement.

"Is it really true?" Dr. Pal and King Caesar, observing this, had their eyes sharpen. Could it be that what Lu Ran said was not a lie??

Although they had realized it, they were still somewhat surprised after their own confirmation.
