Travels of the Necromancer

Up to this point in the conversation, no, it should be said that the whole incident has been going on until now, I have a feeling of being led away, if I don’t find opportunities to fight back, then it’s not me.

"Speaking of which, your Excellency and Oska really have a good relationship."

"I used to be a member of the Cavaliers team with him, and we have been friends for many years." Merkel still kept a smile on my sudden question that had nothing to do with the previous conversation.

"However, Oscar and Erwin seem to have a better relationship."

"This is also normal. After all, Oska and Irwin have been working with Lord Lucian all these years. Although I have kept in touch with him, we cannot see each other often."

"But at a critical moment, he chose to protect you." I was referring to the end of the battle with the blood demon, where Oska protected him from the wind blade.

"In such a critical situation, Oska doesn't have any time to think, it's just that I'm closer to him."

"Really? But I think the subconscious reaction of people in critical moments is the most real, or the most habitual."

"There is indeed such a saying, but there are also many people who will make wrong choices in a panic." Merkel seemed to have not understood the hint in my words, and began to discuss with me seriously.

"After all, the great God of Light has also lamented the complexity of human nature." But I was not discouraged, and continued to ask questions, "I haven't expressed my thanks yet, but you know that the scroll of forbidden spells you used in the end is enough to buy ten silver coins." Moon Castle."

In fact, far more than that.As we all know, the higher the level of magic scrolls, the harder it is to make.There are not even 20 magicians who have reached the magister level on the two continents, and even fewer are willing to spend mana to make such scrolls. Any country will buy scrolls of forbidden spells at any cost, so it can be said to be priceless. .

"This scroll was specially made by Lord Lucian for Erwin as his last protection. I didn't expect it to be used in this mission." Merkel sighed, "However, that scroll was originally It is used to destroy the darkness, I think Master Lucian will be very happy to know that we have defeated the blood demon with the scroll."

"Lord Lucian's skills in making magic scrolls are really superb. Looking back at the scene when the scrolls were activated at that time, I almost thought there was a magician hidden among us." difference, but I am not familiar with light magic, so I can only test it verbally.

"Really? Could it be that someone is helping us secretly." Merkel first showed a little surprise, and then seemed to be lost in thought, showing no flaws.

At this time, Lai suddenly said: "I also have a question, I wonder if you can answer it for me."

"of course can."

"You told your brother that it was the temple that supported the Holy Sword Mercenaries to annex Silver Moon, is that true?" Lai asked solemnly.I was not surprised by Ley's question, because I woke up and told Ley what Merkel had told me before the war.

"It's true." Merkel replied very solemnly.

"Just to find the brilliance of the silver moon?"

Merkel did not answer this question directly: "I want to be the focus of the mercenary guild, and you should be able to guess."

"It's an open secret that the Mage Guild has become the puppet of the Temple. The Temple will also not let go of the Mercenary Guild's power, will it?"

The twists and turns here are really troublesome, but I don't know why Lai became a key training object.

"Then, do you know who was the leader of the Maple Leaf Squad who ambushed the Silver Moon Mercenary Group outside Ford City three years ago?" I was in a daze for a moment when I heard the familiar name of Ford City again. According to the original team, in the World of Warcraft Forest outside Naford City, the Maple Leaf team was ambushed and almost wiped out, and Kate was also seriously injured and died in this battle.It took Ley three years to investigate the identities of all the people who participated in the ambush at that time, but the leader of the team was never found by him. It seems that it should be someone from the temple.

Merkel looked at Ley with a calm expression: "I'm sorry, although I know the general plan of the temple's annexation of Silver Moon, but I don't know anything about the specific implementation. Moreover, even if I really know something, I can't disclose it to you ’” Actually, you’ve given away quite a bit, asshole.

"I see, let's take our leave first."

After leaving Merkel's room, I couldn't help asking Ley, "What's the matter with the training object?"

"I never agreed to what the old men of the Mercenary Guild decided. As for you, the temptation just now seems to have failed."

"This guy is really watertight! But I have already confirmed that he is definitely not Merkel. As for his true identity... If the forbidden spell is not the result of a scroll, as I guessed, then there is only one answer." On the mainland There is only one magister at this age.

"That's not what I'm really worried about though," I continued. "I guess he might know who I really am."

Lai naturally understood that I was referring to his identity as a Necromancer, he frowned: "You are sure, but they didn't move."

"It's not that I didn't take any action. In fact, they saved me." In my state at the time, facing the Forbidden Curse of Light at such a close distance, there is no doubt that there is only a dead end, and even my soul will be completely annihilated.But now I can still stand here alive. Naturally, it is not a miracle, but the result of someone helping me.

"why?"

"In fact, I also want to know." As believers of the God of Light, they should have wiped out my dark and evil existence without hesitation, how could they help me.However, judging from the fact that they swallowed the brilliance of the silver moon, they are indeed not people with pure and firm beliefs.

I was thinking, but my head began to dizzy again, so I had to stop and reach out to support the wall.

A hand reached out and held me.It was Lai's hand, not strong but slender and powerful. There were traces of sword practice and bow and arrow on the fingers. I don't know how it would feel to hold it.

Just when I forgot what I was thinking and started to think about this question, Ley's voice interrupted me: "Is your injury not getting better?"

"Well, the injury is actually healed, but the spirit has been impacted to a certain extent and needs to be recovered slowly." This is the reason I have thought of for a long time. Seeing that Lai has no doubts, I am relieved.Now, I don't want him to know that the connection between my soul and this body has been shaken under the impact of the Forbidden Curse of Light.

The next day, when I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see a familiar figure sitting beside my bed peeling pineapple.

"Noah, why are you here?"

"Visiting the wounded." Noah's hand holding the knife was as steady as when he was holding the sword, and the skin wasn't cut off at all. Then he cut the apple into small pieces and didn't forget to insert a toothpick.

"It's really virtuous! It's a pity that you are a step late, my injury is already healed." I smiled, picked up a piece and put it in my mouth, "How is the situation of the team?"

"Nick and Freya have returned to the team. While you were away, we took another D-level escort mission, which was very rewarding. After the mission was completed, we received news of your injuries. Everyone was worried, so I came here .I heard that your expedition is very exciting.”

"Not only exciting, but also twists and turns." I briefly told Noah what happened in Silvermoon Castle.He didn't express any surprise that I suddenly became the heir of the Roselle family. After all, in the mercenary group, it is normal to conceal one's origin, but after knowing that Lai's surname is Roselle now, he was quite surprised. .

"Well, since Lai's name has been crowned with your surname...then you really returned to the family to hold the ceremony?" After a while, Noah suddenly asked hesitantly.

"Yes." The ceremony of restoring the surname has indeed been officially held.

"Actually, you can invite me or other members of the mercenary team to participate. I don't think anyone will refuse."

"I would like to invite you too, but the family will not agree. After all, it is not a very honorable thing. In the end, only a few members of the family will witness it." Although illegitimate children are common for nobles, they are still not honorable. .

Seeing Noah's regretful expression, I patted him on the shoulder: "Lai doesn't care about the ceremony at all, it's just a cutscene, the most important thing is the result."

"Indeed, it's not easy to get the family's approval. You must have spent a lot of effort."

"That's right, when I think of the faces of those elders, I want to punch someone."

Noah smiled, and then said solemnly: "Chris, I said before that you and Ley are my companions, and this will never change! No matter what happens, I will bless you both."

"Uh, thank you." Facing Noah's words of congratulations, I always felt that something was wrong.
