Lord of Rot

Chapter 2 The Necromancer Legacy

Li Qi stepped over the corpse with a torch in his hand. This tomb... It sounds more like a hole made by a mouse, the more you go in, the more winding it becomes.

Fortunately, the cave is very simple, and there is no fork in the road.

It's just that Li Qi's legs are sore after walking so far. He strongly suspects that he has reached the border of the porcupine collar, and maybe he can smell the sea breeze if he walks a while longer.

"A pampered nobleman!"

He complained and rubbed his legs, it was too late to regret it now, he turned around and walked back and got nothing, but if he walked forward, maybe he could find something?

With various emotions in mind, Li Qi finally came to the end. This is a spacious stone room with a coffin placed horizontally inside. A huge magic circle is carved under the coffin, but the lid of the coffin has been lifted.

"It is estimated that the rotten guy was staying in here."

He glanced into the coffin and thought again of the rotting corpse that had been desperately killed by four farmers.

Inside the coffin was just a pitch-black pile of jelly, and a human figure outlined in white lines.

He searched carefully, not wanting to return empty-handed, and luckily he found a bag.

The bag, sewn from buckskin and filled with gold, weighed about a dozen pounds.

There is also a book on the side. The cover of the book is made of the skin of something. It feels very slippery, like a girl's thigh.

He stared at the book for a few moments and made sure there were tiny pores on the book.

Li Qi trembled and almost threw the book out.

If the real Baron Li Qi was here, he would probably roar "Evil! Heresy!", and then burn the human skin book with a torch, but Li Qi, who came across time, didn't think so. He opened the book, borrowed the torch, The flickering firelight slowly read.

At this moment, he sincerely thanked the late Baron Leald Clarence. The knight status gained through his hard work allowed Li Qi to be taught by a teacher since he was a child. Otherwise, Li Qi would definitely feel a headache when he saw a string of snaking words.

This book comes from a certain scholar, who disregarded the taboos to study the mystery of the dead body in an attempt to obtain eternal life. In the end, he succeeded, allowing the dead body to regain the ability to walk. When he showed this technology in front of other scholars, the scholars called him Heretic, expel him.

He hid in the mountains and devoted himself to perfecting his academic studies, but he found that his research results on corpses had unknowingly far exceeded the results of life research.

At the end of his life, the necromancer planned to transform himself into a corpse in exchange for endless time, but judging from the corpse outside...he failed.

In the necromancer's legacy, it is recorded how to transform the corpse into a dead corpse that can act, and in his records he also successfully created a higher-level dead corpse with wisdom, which he called a ghoul, and died after getting older Most of what the spiritualist creates are ghouls. He doesn't bother to create dead bodies like cannon fodder. He even fantasized about finding a dragon's corpse, but he failed until his death.

Li Qi looked at the record excitedly, this thing was exactly what he wanted!Something that can save your own life.

Is it taboo to manipulate and study corpses?Fuck his four gods!
"10 ounces of gold, the effect is best if there is salt. For a complete corpse, the wounds on the corpse need to be filled with gold to make up for it. If rare magic materials can be added, there may be mutations. But I don't have anything now, just gold and Corpse, yes, there is also a magic circle."

The description of the magic circle is very complicated, and Li Qi doubts whether he can complete the imitation in one day. Fortunately, the deceased necromancer left a complete coffin, and the huge magic circle is under the coffin.

"Thank you for the blessings of the Four Gods!"

Li Qi walked back and dragged one of the corpses of the four farmers back. If it wasn't for the necromancer's corpse that obviously didn't meet the condition of a "complete corpse", he would definitely have dragged it over.

He put the corpse into the coffin, weighed out 10 ounces with the balance in the grave, and put it on the chest of the corpse, and then used about a pound of broken gold to fill the wound from the farmer's chest to his stomach. Now is not the time to feel sorry for gold. Then he put the lid on the coffin.

After consigning the corpse and moving the coffin lid, he was already exhausted and out of breath.

Chant the mantra and then simply wait.

It was a series of incantations that had no meaning and could only make various strange noises, but after Li Qi read a few sentences, he found that it was easy to pronounce. It sounded like "Qing Ding He Cheng Fu Hua", like Chinese empty ears.

The pitch-black space does not perceive the flow of time.

Suddenly there was a vibration in the coffin, Li Qi stood up, he pushed the lid of the coffin with great effort, the heavy coffin lid fell to the ground, and made a "boom" sound, the sound rushed out through the crypt, and was finally swallowed by the darkness.

The farmer's corpse opened his eyes and looked up blankly. The gold had melted into the wound on his abdomen, filling the wound and leaving a golden scar.

He successfully created a dead body!

Li Qi took out the book and found a small spell developed by the necromancer in order to control the ignorant corpse. He used his own will to control the movement of the corpse, but this required super mental strength.

Baron Li Qi, who regarded the dead body as his own survival, chose to try it without hesitation. The strange thing is that he didn't struggle as hard as the necromancer recorded. The whole process of casting the spell was very easy and smooth. When he stopped, his consciousness had disappeared. Completely controlled the dead body in the coffin.

"I might be a magical genius"

In Dongxia, it is said that only scholars can study magic, but it is just a private behavior. Studying magic and arcane is contrary to the belief of the sect. In this country, the belief in God and the loyalty to the monarch are above all else, at least On the surface it says so.

After thinking that he might be able to learn the legendary magic in the future, he turned his mind back. He controlled the dead body to sit up from the coffin, and saw the young baron wrapped in a white cloth and holding a torch beside the coffin.

Under the long black hair is a pair of black eyes. It is said that he inherited his deceased mother. He has a handsome face. Because his father is a former porcupine baron, he does not look thin at all.

One consciousness controls two bodies, which is a little confusing, but after a little control, he finds that the problem doesn't seem to be too big.

"Maybe this is the benefit of the fusion of two souls?"

Thinking of this, Li Qi controlled the dead body in the coffin to crawl out.

The corpse walked awkwardly, staggering forward, and gradually became familiar with it.

"Next one, my soldier!" he said.

He controlled Dead Corpse No. [-] and dragged a corpse into the coffin. After a period of suffering, Dead Corpse No. [-] was freshly released.

In the following time, Dead Corpse No. [-] and Dead Corpse No. [-] were successfully born.

Li Qi tried to control the four dead bodies. In order to control them precisely, he gave up his body and let them fall to the ground and fell into a coma.

But even so, it is still very clumsy to control four corpses at the same time, and can only make the simplest attacks, forward and backward, etc., instead of being able to control the bending of fingers as finely as when controlling only one dead corpse.

He walked back with the four dead bodies, and picked up their sickles, axes, hoes, pitchforks and other agricultural tools on the way back.

He stopped at the entrance of the cave, and after controlling the dead bodies to stop, Li Qi crawled out of the cave.

It's already dawn.

He turned to look at the tombstone, the groove of the tombstone was completely occupied by green moss.

Pour a glass of water, and finally relieved my thirst, but the hunger in my stomach has not subsided.

There were footsteps outside, and then a knock on the door.

"My lord, I'll scrub and change your dressing for you." The voice was very strange, it sounded like the servant of younger brother Leo.

It's not so much to help scrub, it's better to see if I'm dead or not.

Just as the goalkeeper was about to be pushed open, Li Qi said, "Let Mr. James come."

"You! Are you awake!?" The voice outside the door was startled.

"Let Teacher James come!" Li Qi emphasized again, and made his voice sound weak: "I only trust him now!"
