The rotting flesh and limbs embedded in Hunter's body had been completely burned, and the pained eyes regained their sanity, and slowly crawled towards Kailin.
Lucien took out a glass tube filled with white powder from his arms, stuffed it in Kailin's hand, and then held Kailin's clothes and placed her in front of Hunter.
"This is?" Kailin's heart throbbed, and a very familiar feeling came from the glass tube. It was the feeling she dreamed of every night, and she often missed it to the point of tears!
Due to the transformation experiment on himself, Hunter's physical sense of touch was close to numbness. He resisted the pain of burning flames, and shouted with the intuition of the necromancer's connection with blood: "That's... little Mary's... ashes?!"
"Mary is stuck in the ruins, please ask me to take her home before she dies." Lucien didn't tell the details, because a little girl was lonely, hungry, painful, looking forward to and finally desperate in the black, white and gray world of the dead. The things that go through the last period of life are too cruel.
Hunter suddenly burst into tears, two lines of tears mixed with light yellow corpse fluid had just flowed out and were burned dry by the flames: "Is it that damned Mystery? It not only made me waste more than twenty years of my life, but also made me Lost little Mary." The voice was no longer broken, but clear as a flash.
"He really knows." Lucien said silently to himself.
Kailin burst into tears, full of heart-piercing pain and regret, with blood and tears on her face mixed together, while shouting "Little Mary", she opened the glass tube, poured the ashes into her mouth, and poured them on her body , and then threw himself on Hunter, accepting the burning of the flames with him.
"Mr. Evans, thank you for allowing us to be reunited before we die." Kailin hugged Hunter's head, and kept kissing his face with her lips that carried Mary's ashes.
Lucien watched this scene quietly, with complicated emotions, but he still asked, "Mr. Hunter, aren't you from the small town of Bonn?"
"My hometown... is Djibouti... the principality..." Hunter, who learned of his daughter's whereabouts, had no will to persevere. He hugged Kailin and "Mary" instead, as if he was about to swallow his last breath.
On the contrary, Kailin, who was burned by the flames not long ago, whispered to herself: "No matter why you stay in the small town of Bonn, no matter why you marry me, I have always loved you and our daughter so much."
"I... too..." Hunter's mind became blurred, "I really regret... learning... magic..."
The sound stopped abruptly, and Hunter really died. Kailin hugged him tightly and ended her life with the small dagger in her arms.
The flames grew bigger and bigger, and the two bodies slowly charred and turned into ashes.
At this time, a gust of gloomy wind blows away the black and white ashes, and a little white light emerges out of thin air, converging into the lovely and transparent figure of little Mary, and behind her are the more blurred Hunter and Kailin .
The little girl spoke silently, but her voice seemed to ring in Lucien's heart: "Thank you, Uncle, for taking me home. Hehe, I finally got my father and mother..."
Most of the light spots dissipated in the wind, but a small part wrapped around Lucien's left hand, and finally turned into a pale white mark of tears.
As soon as it appeared, Lucien found that his body had a good ability to resist the surrounding undead environment and rotting corpses without the magical blessing of "resisting undead creatures".
"Is it a constant effect?"
Lucien did not expect such a change in the sense of gratitude left behind by the Hunter family, but he didn't know much about necromancer magic, but he didn't know what it was: "Maybe you can look for Hunter's magic notes. , he should have a better understanding of necromantic things."
According to Kailin, Hunter's laboratory is in the cemetery, so Lucien didn't wait for the flames to subside, and turned to Betty, Simon and Joanna who were looking at the window of the castle and said loudly: "You take the corpse puppets left in the castle Take care of it, and I will clean up this evil necromancer's lair." The distance is relatively far, and they need to shout loudly to hear them.
"Yes, Lord Evans." Betty and the others said in unison. In their eyes, Lucien was a powerful paladin with many extraordinary items.
After they arrived, Lucien only used three supernatural powers: "Grease", "Fireball" and "Super Revenant". Since the greasy spell has no conspicuous appearance and the distance is so far, unless Betty and the others are formal knights or magicians, they will not be able to find that the greasy spell is performed by Lucien himself, and the fireball spell is originally inspired by magic items. Then there is no need to worry.
Of course, Lucien would not take risks, so he would naturally look for opportunities to "verify" with "Charm Human" one by one.
※※※
The door of the laboratory in the burning cemetery was wide open, and Hunter seemed to be eager to run out after the experiment was "successful".
Walking into the gate, even though he was mentally prepared, Lucien couldn't help but feel nauseated, because it was like a slaughterhouse, with human corpses everywhere, full of bloody smell. Moreover, most of the corpses belonged to babies, children, and teenagers. They were cut into different parts, and their internal organs, facial features, etc. were placed on different experimental tables.
After looking around carefully, Lucien found the main long table where Hunter was conducting experiments, on which was carved the most famous inverted tree of life in the necromantic system. The circle of ten branches of the tree is empty, but there is still a black coffin next to it.
After the inspection, Lucien opened the black coffin and saw a scene that surprised him, because it was the body of a little girl Mary, about seven or eight years old, with a ruddy face as if she was asleep. Visible bodily elasticity and touch.
Lucien, who was sure that Mary's real body had turned into bones and was burned by himself, speculated in his mind: "Could it be that Hunter collected so many corpses of children and babies for human body refining? But he obviously failed..."
After searching around for a while, Lucien found two black books in the corner. One looked like a notebook, and the other was similar to the "Book of Astrology and Elements". Book of Three Pale Words.
After quickly flipping through the "Necronomicon" and Hunter's magic notes, and collecting them in the soul library, Lucien read them seriously.
"According to the records obtained in the Magic Tower, the small town of Bonn in the Principality of Viorit is a mysterious relic shrouded in mysteries, which seems to be related to the whereabouts of several legendary magicians in ancient times, including Wilfried Necromancer My good friend 'Prophet' Maskelyne. It is definitely not as barren as this magic tower, there are likely to be many magic items and treasures! I want to find it!"
…
"The town of Bonn is a beautiful place. The townspeople are simple and conservative. The girl named Karin is really beautiful."
…
"Why isn't there any trace of the Mystic? What kind of Mystic is it? Could it be that the Prophet Maskelyne arranged it himself?"
…
"I can't find clues from the background of the missing person. It seems that I can only give up, but I seem to be a little reluctant to leave the small town of Bonn. Maybe I should tell her my real identity."
…
"Haha, I have a lovely daughter! Kailin gave birth to a daughter for me, I want to call her Mary. Never mind, what necromancer, what Wilfrid and the prophet 'Maskulein' etc The mysterious experiments of legendary magicians, powerful magic items, and precious treasures are not as important as them!"
…
"Mary... Mary is gone! The nearby beasts should have been dealt with by me a long time ago! Could it be the mystic, or the kidnapper from outside?!"
…
"My dear little Mary, you come home, father and mother miss you so much!"
…
"Kailin cries every day. I think we need a new place to live. I also need a good environment to study magic. See if I can find Little Mary, or revive her?"
…
"Haha, in order to prolong his life and regain his youth, Baron Habero in Gray Mist Town actually killed his son as I said! With this blood-linked corpse, he can maintain his youth for several years! And I can start researching too!"
…
"Why does my body start to rot? Why is my body full of stench? Is this revenge from the undead? Their pain and wailing seem to be entangled in my ears forever. No, I want to advance quickly, as long as I become a middle-aged A super magician can get rid of physical pain!"
…
"There is no way for me to become a magician with three rings... Can I just watch my body rot? Maybe I should try the transformation ritual of 'Sewing Corpse' in the Necronomicon, and at the same time start refining Mary's body. "
…
"Mary's body needs a lot of precious materials, and I have already used up all the money. It seems that I have to mortgage the only magic items. Anyway, after being transformed into a 'stitched corpse', I can use the third ring step by step. magic!"
…
"A magician I know sent an invitation letter, what is the feast of death? What is the headquarters of the Continental Magic Council? If I succeed in transformation and refining, maybe I should go and see it. But where is the castle of Karendia? I have to write and ask."
"The baron is becoming more and more greedy, and he is attacking minors in his territory more and more frequently, and he also wants to find an underage knight's body to replace his rotten body. Underage knights are so easy to come across Is it?! As long as the experiment is successful, I will take Kailin and Mary and leave. Unrestrained demands will definitely attract the attention of the church. Hehe, the trainee priest in Gray Mist Town has been refined into a corpse by me. It is truly a unique corpse. ah… "
"Kalundia Castle was originally located in the depths of the 'Yaron' mountain range next to the city of Koser..."
Seeing this, Lucien did not expect that there would be an unexpected surprise. Hunter recorded the location of the Castle of Calendia in his magic notes, and the invitation letter was also sandwiched between the two pages.
The contents of the following magic notes are mainly the records of the transformation ceremony and the refining of Mary's body. Regardless of whether Hunter succeeds or not, those precious data and experiences are rare treasures for magicians.
"Unfortunately, in order to refine Mary's body, Hunter spent all his money and items." Lucien put the magic note on the table, and then casually flipped through the "Necronomicon". The magic books left by Wilfrid's disciples recorded most of the necromancer magic and rituals taught by Wilfrid, but there was no "Pale Lord" Wilfrid's legendary career advancement method, so Lucien It's a pity.
Lucien didn't find anything else of value, took the invitation letter, and slowly exited the magic laboratory, leading the burning flames of the cemetery to spread over.
Seeing the refined "Mary" and a room full of bloody corpses burning in the dancing flames, Lucien slowly turned around: "No wonder we use babies, children, and teenagers. It turns out that ancient necromancers believed that those who died before reaching adulthood Human beings have the most abundant and pure life and death power, and are the best material for spellcasting and rituals."
"Why did Maskelyne, the legendary magician of the astrology system, conduct an experiment with 'Pale Lord' Wilfried? And judging from his words, this experiment is very mysterious and important!"
