The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

The woman who caused so much trouble said harsh words to Li and then turned around and wanted to leave.

With a bunch of secret order mages guarding the rear, it would be very easy to evacuate, provided that one did not encounter an opponent with strange abilities like Li.

The woman turned around and wanted to leave, but just after taking two steps, she found that the doll that was originally in her arms jumped out and stood on the ground.

A shadow surrounded the doll, causing it to run towards Li as if it had legs.

The woman suddenly became anxious. The puppet who could control others was an important support for the woman in the organization.

If she loses that doll, the woman will be no different from an ordinary assassin.

"Stop it!"

As soon as the woman screamed, she found her body burning fiercely. The flames instantly engulfed the woman's body and ignited her into a human-shaped torch.

In the dark night, the burning human body was so eye-catching; the painful screams and twisted movements shocked everyone.

Several groups of people who were fighting stopped their actions one after another. They watched the woman burn to ashes and finally fall to the ground.

The woman didn't have Lee's ability to survive the flames, so she was burned to death.

When the mages of the secret society saw that everything had turned to ashes, they thought there was no point in trying and immediately ran away.

Before leaving, the mages of the secret order left behind a lot of colorful magic, and then ran away faster than each other.

The helpers Li called all looked at Li with doubtful eyes, indicating whether they should give chase.

"Stop, don't chase after a desperate enemy."

Seeing that Li did not continue to make things difficult, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although many people who came to join the war knew that Li had the ability to resurrect the dead, no good person would seek death for no reason, especially when killed by magic, which would be very painful.

Lee bent down and picked up the doll that had walked to his feet.

The doll's skeleton is made of wood and it is covered with a layer of small clothes of unknown material.

Li stared at it for a long time but couldn't figure out how this thing controlled others.

Instead, the brave man came over and immediately revealed the true attributes of the doll.

“I think this thing is like a magical artifact.”

The brave man drew out his holy sword and brought it close to the doll, and as expected, a resonance appeared between the two.

A strange power appeared on the holy sword and the doll at the same time, confirming the hero's judgment of the doll.

"It really seems to be a divine weapon. I didn't expect that a divine weapon could be seen so easily."

After Li confirmed that the doll was a sacred artifact, he threw it to the hero.

The brave man held the doll in his hands with a confused look on his face. Such an important thing was just thrown to me?

"The artifact and the hero go well together, you can play with them."

After Li sent the brave man away, he called the people waiting around.

"Drag your dead companions here, I'll revive them first."

A pile of corpses was piled in front of Li, and there were more than twenty of them at a glance.

Fortunately, Li called enough helpers, otherwise the murderer would have really escaped tonight.

Seeing that so many of Li's men had sacrificed their lives, Little Dalai and Lucy no longer clamored for revenge. They knew that the favors they owed today might be something they would never be able to repay in their lifetime.

Li didn't care about what little Dale and Lucy thought. He didn't save the Dale family in vain. Li's arrangements for Windmill River Bay still required the cooperation of the Dale family.

"Master, are you okay?"

Li used his magic power to revive the corpse in front of him. After a large amount of magic power was drained, Li felt dizzy and fell down.

Xiaoli and Lilith quickly protected Li and held him in their arms.

Li leaned his weight on Lilith and spoke weakly to Xiaoli.

"I just overdrawn my magic power, Xiaoli, the task of resurrecting them is left to you."

"Master, I haven't mastered the magic of resurrection yet. Can I do it?"

Xiaoli learned a lot of necromancy from Li, but she has never tried to resurrect the dead.

Such a heavy task fell directly on Xiaoli, making the little maid look very flustered.

"Don't be nervous, Xiaoli. I have taught you everything I should have taught you. There has to be a first time for resurrection. Didn't you always say that you would share the burden with me? As long as there are battles in the future, there will be many similar situations."

Xiaoli looked up and around, and saw that people from several powerful forces were looking at Li.

Xiaoli then realized that the young master had unknowingly built up his own strength.

What happened today will happen many times in the future, and each time the conflict will be more intense than the last.

If Li were to resurrect all the dead in every battle in the future, he would never be able to finish the task even if he died of exhaustion.

“…I understand Master, I will try my best!”

Li entrusted the important task of resurrecting the dead to Xiaoli, and the attention of the people around them also shifted over.

It was the first time for Xiaoli to become such an important protagonist. The suspicious looks from people around her made Xiaoli tremble unconsciously.

It turns out that the young master is under this kind of pressure every day, how can he still chat and laugh as if nothing happened?

The young master is really awesome!

Xiaoli walked over to a dead militiaman, who was originally a resident of the Gravel Hill town. Xiaoli and Li often called him uncle.

As if he knew he could still stand up, the uncle died very peacefully, as if he was sleeping.

Xiaoli carefully recorded the other person's appearance when he died, because the young master said that one should have awe for the dead, which is the first step in practicing necromancy.

Xiaoli stained her fingers with the dead man's blood and slowly drew the magic runes taught by Li on the dead man's forehead.

Due to nervousness, Xiaoli accidentally drew the magic circle incorrectly because of shaking hands.

"Woo~ Master, Xiaoli can't do it well."

"Tsk~ just erase it and draw it again, stop whining."

Xiaoli had no choice but to use a handkerchief to wipe off the wrongly drawn magic rune and draw a new one.

After finishing the magic runes, Xiaoli needed other people's help to organize the sacrificial ceremony. After all, Xiaoli did not have Li's ability to perform resurrection magic alone.

"I need someone to help me!"

After Xiaoli shouted, no one responded. They were willing to follow Li's instructions because Li could really do what he promised. Another reason was that Li was more or less a noble.

Xiaoli had a low status and no one was willing to follow her instructions, which made Xiaoli feel very aggrieved.

But Li took the initiative to come over and stand at the most important position of the sacrificial array. Li's magic power was exhausted now, but he had no problem serving as a ritual stake.

With Lee as an example, Mellen and a few old friends came over to help, and Count Dalai was willing to repay Lee's favor.

All the conditions for starting the ceremony were met. Xiaoli took a deep breath and stood in front of the deceased.

Xiaoli mobilized the magic power in her body and integrated it into the drawn magic runes. She then extracted the vitality of the people around her and infused it into the bodies of the deceased.

The person who was originally dead suddenly opened his eyes under the infusion of magic power and vitality.

There was nothing wrong with Xiaoli's resurrection magic. Li nodded affirmatively and decided that if he encountered such troubles in the future, he could ask Xiaoli for help.

However, before Li could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the resurrected person suddenly pounce on Xiaoli, opening his bloody mouth and trying to bite Xiaoli's face.

Myron reacted quickly, rushed forward and kicked the man down, then called on a few friends to control the mad dead man.

"Li, it looks like Xiaoli's resurrection magic isn't very good."

The dead person who was pinned down struggled desperately and turned his head to bite people. This was not resurrection, but being transformed into a zombie.

Xiaoli's magic only revived the body of the dead, but failed to bring back the soul of the dead.

Li looked at the failed reproduction product in front of him, frowned and fell into deep thought.
