The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 376 Goodbye Magician

Even though he was cursed with a powerful curse, he was able to escape with a substitute. For the first time, Li intuitively realized that many powerful forces in this world were not weaker than his own necromancy.

"Ancestor-level vampire..."

The image of the children's remains piled up in the closed passage always lingered in Li's mind.

This time, Li did not use his power of resurrection to save the lives of the dead children.

Because Li knew very well that they must have suffered terrible torture before their death, which would destroy their spirits.

Li was afraid that after resurrecting these children, they would jump up and blame himself, asking why he had made them endure such a painful life.

Even if they did not blame Li, the lives of these children who were captured as laborers and blood eaters were extremely miserable.

Some people can change their destiny, but for some people, ending it here may be the best outcome.

Li just felt heavy in his heart.

"Li, you just mentioned that there are ruins on the frozen tundra, and the hero got the holy sword in it. Tell me about it..."

Lei pulled Li aside and talked incessantly about his discoveries. Lei's focus now was all on history and relics.

Li had no interest in discussing this with Lei, so he raised his hand to interrupt him.

"I'm not in the mood to communicate with you. Maybe next time."

Lei looked at Li's back with a confused look on his face, not understanding what Li was trying to do.

It's just that a bunch of people died. Li is a necromancer, so what's so strange about dead people?

Lei looked at Lilith and saw that Lilith didn't understand what Li was struggling with, which made him more certain that the problem was with Li, not him.

Li did not blame them. After all, the rhythm of this world was different from that of Earth.

Li was just feeling sad for those innocent people who died. They had done nothing wrong, but were used as labor and food by others.

this is not right!

Li felt that he needed to create a more peaceful environment so that people here could live with more dignity.

Immersed in reflection, Li slowly returned to Caiyun Catering.

The moment he walked into the door, Li suddenly came out of his thoughts.

It was still daytime, but the restaurant was silent. The air was filled with a depressing atmosphere that made all the pores on Li's body stand up.

Li keenly noticed that something happened in the restaurant!

The voice of Gao Xing calling out "Young Master" in the past was gone. There was no one on the first floor, and only the remaining fire in the kitchen was still shaking slightly.

Lee retreated from the kitchen and began to climb the stairs leading to the second floor.

Before he had taken a few steps up, Li saw Xiaoli standing at the stairs waiting for him.

Xiaoli was trying her best to keep a normal state, but her eyes and ears were bleeding.

Li quickly took two steps and grabbed Xiaoli's hand to check the situation.

"Master, I'm fine..."

As soon as Xiaoli opened her mouth, blood flowed out uncontrollably from the corners of her mouth. Xiaoli quickly closed her mouth to prevent Li from worrying about her.

The constant bleeding made Li understand what happened to Xiaoli.

Lee stopped being cautious and strode towards his room.

Li opened the door and saw a young man in a black robe sitting in his seat.

The other party liked Li's recliner very much and enjoyed the rocking feeling.

Li observed the other person's appearance and found that he did not know him, but the other person's subsequent behavior made Li understand who his opponent was.

"Weize Li, you are finally back. I have been waiting for so long. I am so bored~"

Li couldn't think of any other vampire who would come to his house to block his way. Only the original vampire he met today would do such a boring thing.

"Let me formally introduce myself. I am the Blood Undertaker, the ancestor of the original vampire faction, the Son of the Dragon, Vlad! It's a pleasure to meet you, young necromancer, backlit magician, Mr. Weiser Lee~"

Vlad, who had changed his body, greeted Li politely.

Li was surprised by the name the other party said.

The magician of backlight!

Li had not heard this name for a long time. Li could not help but look at Vlad in front of him, and kept thinking in his heart about the connection between the person in front of him and the dream world.

Vlad, on the other hand, was a little confused. He was just introducing himself, but the look in Li's eyes was really strange.

"Why do you call me the magician with backlight?"

Vlad spread his arms in a silent gesture.

"This is the symbol you left in the temple."

So you are from the temple, calling me the magician of backlight...

Li felt that it was time to investigate the temple carefully!

After suppressing his doubts, Li started communicating with Vlad again.

"You control my maid and interfere with the business of my restaurant. What is your purpose?"

Vlad snapped his fingers coolly, and Xiaoli, who was standing next to Li, immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Vlad walked to Xiaoli, dipped a little blood with his finger, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully.

Li secretly cursed him as a pervert, and Xiaoli wanted to die even more.

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Li, I came here today to seek cooperation~"

Vlad returned to the recliner, rocked a few times and spoke casually.

"I am the original vampire, and you are a necromancer who is not tolerated by the world. The kingdom is our common enemy, why don't we join forces~"

From Vlad's perspective, Lee had a significantly closer relationship with dark creatures like himself.

Vlad never understood why Lee would help the king and go to fight the vampires.

"Team up? I won't team up with someone who brings demons into the capital!"

"Demon? What did the demon do to you? Did it eat your rice? The demon is obviously the victim, just like us vampires, all of us are the product of human selfishness!"

Vlad doesn't think there's anything wrong with joining forces with the devil!

Vlad, who lived longer, had experienced more ancient conflicts and dangers, and knew how the demon species came about.

To put it bluntly, demons are the failed products of some human magicians' pursuit of greater power.

These failed products met the magician's design requirements in terms of strength, but broke free from the shackles of control.

"It is the devil created by human beings themselves. If the devil is wrong, then all human beings are wrong!"

The momentum displayed by Vlad directly overwhelmed Li.

Lee couldn't utter any words of defense in front of Vlad, his victim.

Li could only sigh helplessly and winked at Xiaoli.

Xiaoli straightened up when she saw this, and the situation where Vlad had previously manipulated her blood disappeared immediately.

Vlad was a little puzzled as to why this maid could escape his control.

The next moment, Vlad fell to the ground in pain. Vlad, who had suffered the same attack before, immediately realized that Lee had planted a powerful curse in his body again.

"Pfft! How did you do that? I clearly..."

Vlad knew that Li was a necromancer, so he was on guard against the fact that he came to cause trouble this time.

He didn't touch anything that would enter his body, nor did he eat anything...

"You lowly ones! This maid is your puppet!"

Li shrugged. He didn't expect Vlad would take the initiative to devour Xiaoli's blood. Isn't this just seeking death?

"Assholes! Just wait for me, I will be back!"

Before Li could make any move, Vlad suddenly exploded on the spot, turning into hundreds of bats, which swarmed out of the window.

Li stopped two of them and crushed them to death on the spot, but he could only watch the rest fly away.

Lee knew very well that curses alone would not be enough to defeat an enemy like Vlad.

"Xiao Li, help me contact the palace. It's time to move forward with the plan!"

Li looked at the direction Vlad ran away and muttered to himself.

Vlad, what can you do if you run away again?
