Using the trident, he began to push the skeleton bone horse backward.

His strength attribute was 167 points, equivalent to the brute force of more than thirty farmers exerting effort together.

Under such immense force, the skeleton bone horse retreated repeatedly, and even the bones of its legs sounded like they were under heavy pressure, pushed back two meters by Zong Shen, along with its rider.

From this angle, the Lion Skeleton Knight should be able to clearly see the ring on his hand.

Without hesitation, he braced the trident to maintain a safe distance, then reached out his other hand directly through the gap to prominently display the [Silver Lion Ring].

During the restraint, Zong Shen could feel the creature struggling.

A force continuously tried to resist; however, the gap between them was too great, making such resistance futile.

But this force was quite noticeable, allowing Zong Shen to sense the Lion Skeleton Knight’s state.

When he stretched out the ring worn by the Lion Skeleton Knight.

About five to six seconds later, the force opposing the trident suddenly vanished.

Feeling the change from the trident in his hand, Zong Shen felt a surge of joy in his heart.

He tentatively pulled back the trident, discovering that the Lion Skeleton Knight did not react.

Just as Zong Shen prepared to assess the situation further.

There was a commotion outside again.

"Swish!"

"Puff!"

Unexpectedly, the Lion Skeleton Knight dismounted.

Zong Shen could see the changes in light and shadow caused by the dark red Soul Fire.

And heard the dull sound when the Skeleton Knight landed on the ground.

"Clap!"

"Clap..."

With slow steps, the Lion Skeleton Knight arrived outside the gap.

Zong Shen cautiously withdrew his right hand, taking a few steps back.

The next scene left Zong Shen somewhat shocked; the Lion Skeleton Knight unexpectedly used a rusted sword to prop himself up, and knelt on one knee!

A battle helmet that had shattered more than half adorned its head.

The Soul Fire illuminated the ground, as it kept its skull lowered.

This was a typical sign of subjugation.

It remained in that pose motionless, like an ice sculpture that remained unchanged for millennia.

Seeing this, Zong Shen grabbed the trident, turned it around, and with its pointed end lightly nudged the knight’s chest and gave a solid push.

Knocking it to the ground.

Such provocative actions did not anger the Lion Skeleton Knight.

The Soul Fire within its eye sockets remained steady.

Slowly it climbed back up, then knelt down again.

After testing it, Zong Shen felt much more assured; he decided to go out and take a look.

He crouched through the gap, and the Lion Skeleton Knight showed no excessive reaction.

Still maintaining the kneeling gesture, as Zong Shen stood behind it, the creature turned and knelt once more.

It seems the [Silver Lion Ring] is indeed effective.

After all, it is an Epic Level commander token with an extraordinary commanding effect.

"Stand up."

Zong Shen tentatively said, knowing that pure kneeling wasn’t a solution.

Though this creature seemed to submit, it showed no reaction, and the Lord System provided no indication, nor did it reflect any Command Value consumption.

This situation left Zong Shen puzzled.

If the Lion Skeleton Knight could be subdued by the [Ring of the Lion Skull], it would be useless if it couldn’t be controlled.

Sure enough, after Zong Shen finished speaking, the creature remained motionless.

It seems the undead should have their unique methods of communication.

Besides those Witch Demons and Ghosts, most undead cannot speak the universal language.

In fact, undead like skeletons have long lost their vocal cords.

The only sound they can make is a low growl produced by the friction of their upper and lower jaws.

"What a hassle..."

Zong Shen realized his day was full of challenges.

His previous explorations weren’t this complicated!

Yet, he forgot that earlier he wasn’t as greedy.

He would clean up the ruins, gather some treasure chests and leave.

Now he wanted to tame the Lion Skeleton Knight and conquer the Shallow Water Fishman.

With the same task, the more profit you seek, the more difficulties you face.

He stood there contemplating solutions while watching the Lion Skeleton Knight.

The creature stood motionless, like a wooden puppet.

Demonstrating the undead’s excellent qualities.

As he immersed his thoughts into the storage grid for a while, he found a tool.

However, he was unsure if this tool could be useful, opting to consult the guide first.

He flipped his hand, producing a pink candy.

The candy was as large as a date, inexplicably somewhat enticing.

This was [Parrot Candy (Purple)] obtained when he opened treasure chests in batches earlier.

According to related hints, eating this candy allows one to quickly master a language.

Of course, this language is definitely free from Magic Power attributes.

Languages like Dragon Language that inherently possess Magic Power are hard to master.

It’s not that mastering Dragon Language automatically allows one to use magic.

Kobolds can speak Dragon Language, yet they can’t use Dragon Language Magic.

Because Dragon Language is a type of language, Dragon Language magic is merely utilizing the language to activate Magic Power and construct a spell model.

Even so, Dragon Language still ranks high among the language tiers.

Now Zong Shen hopes this Parrot Candy can help him master the undead’s modes of communication.

Though the candy takes 1 to 3 days to absorb new language vocabulary, he doesn’t mind, as long as it can be useful, learning basic undead directives is sufficient.

Yet, he’s uncertain and must further consult the Guide Module.

"Can Rare Level [Parrot Candy] allow me to grasp the undead’s communication method?"

After he explicitly stated his question, golden subtitles appeared instantly.
