The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer
Chapter 116 Ancient Dungeon
Li conducted reconnaissance through the fat rats living in the palace and soon noticed that the palace guards had really caught someone.
And in the mouse's quick glance, Li unexpectedly discovered a familiar figure.
The way she talked incoherently to the sky after being grabbed by the soldiers, the confident attitude of wearing a nun's uniform and getting into the prison van by herself, and the most crucial sentence.
"When is dinner?"
You have been arrested, and you are still asking when dinner will be served. How big of a heart do you have!
Combining all these messy characteristics, Li instantly thought of someone.
An employee of Caiyun Catering, a delivery specialist, and Teresa, a nun from the temple who works part-time as a delivery manager!
"Why is Theresa here in the palace? Wait a minute, we're not sure that person is Theresa."
Before the college went on holiday, Li asked each employee about their holiday arrangements.
For those employees who went home to visit their families and prepared to travel, Li encouraged them and gave them an extra bonus.
The only one who didn't need to rest was Teresa. She was supposed to stay with Li and continue to pass on information from the upper echelons of the temple.
But just when Li was about to take Theresa home, Theresa suddenly received a message from her leader, asking her to return to the headquarters immediately.
After Li prepared enough portable food for Theresa, he no longer paid any attention to this nun who was running around on her own two legs.
After all, the holy temple was in the royal capital, so Li really had nothing to worry about.
As a result, isn’t this the problem?
In order to confirm the truth, Li went to the prison in the palace under the pretext of delivering food to the prisoners.
The other facilities of the palace have been modernized and now appear magnificent.
However, the ancient underground prison still maintains the style of the turbulent times.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the prison, Li took a deep breath.
He only saw a narrow stone entrance, which was only one meter high and people had to bend over to enter.
The stairs have a huge drop and one could easily fall down if one is not careful.
There was no light inside yet, so Li could only grope his way forward.
After walking along the narrow and low passage for a long time, Li was able to barely raise his head.
The atmosphere of corruption caused by long-term closure makes people feel like they have returned to the Middle Ages.
This prison seems to have been abandoned by the times and still retains its barbaric and bloody characteristics.
Li now somewhat understood why the soldiers guarding the prison did not search him carefully, and why they looked at him with pity.
Li walked quietly in the prison, carrying a basket of food.
The dim light from the torches around him gave Li a strange feeling of disharmony.
Everything outside has long been modernized due to the technological revolution, so why does the prison here still maintain its classical style?
To save money and recycle waste, prisons can use ancient stone structures.
But at least the cells where prisoners are held need to be renovated.
But Li carefully checked the surrounding objects. The pedestal for the torch was an ancient bronze product, and the prison railings were made of corroded and rusted rough iron.
Can such a prison really hold modern extraordinary people?
Li's doubts were soon confirmed.
"Teresa! I knew it was you!"
Li came to the cell where Theresa was imprisoned. There were two soldiers in the cell, seriously interrogating Theresa.
Seeing Li coming, the soldier stopped asking questions, walked out of the cell and looked at Li's condition.
"Who asked you to come to the cell?"
Faced with the soldiers' aggressiveness, Li immediately lowered his posture and gave a flattering explanation.
"I am the prince's attendant, and I have come to check on this intruder."
Li handed the basket to the soldiers for inspection, and took out two gold coins and handed them to them.
Money talks. The soldiers no longer prevented Lee from contacting Theresa, but they did not leave either.
Under the watchful eyes of the soldiers, Li came to stand opposite Theresa.
"Teresa, why did you come to the palace and cause such a commotion?"
Seeing Lee coming to greet her and bringing a basket of food, Theresa bent the cell bars under the surprised gaze of Lee and the guards.
Theresa snatched Lee's basket and stuffed the food into her mouth without caring what kind of food was in it.
Li looked at the soldier next to him and pointed at the curved iron fence.
"…She broke it, it has nothing to do with me!"
The soldier took out a notebook and put the blame on Li.
“Don’t write about me. The prince asked me to come. Even if you have to keep an account, you have to write it down to Prince Leon!”
Li's attitude of shirking responsibility made the soldiers feel ashamed. Since they had already mentioned the prince, why didn't they just mention His Majesty directly?
Seeing that the soldier ignored him, Li looked at Theresa again.
"Sister, speak!"
"Hiccup~ I came to look for you. I heard you were in the palace, so I walked in."
"It's my fault that you trespassed into the palace!"
The soldier standing by was writing with his pen, carefully recording every word Lee and Theresa said.
These things need to be reported afterwards.
"Okay, tell me, why did you suddenly come to see me?"
When Li asked this, Theresa remembered the important matter.
"Our leader said he needs your help with something!"
Something else to do?
Li felt a toothache. Leon's problem had not been resolved yet, and he had no time to deal with the problems of the temple.
Li snatched the basket from Theresa's hand and turned to leave the prison.
Seeing this, Theresa hurried out, but was yelled back by Li.
"You are still a prisoner, don't follow me out!"
Theresa shrank back with a look of grievance, acting like an abandoned pet, so pitiful.
Li sighed and turned back to instruct the guarding soldiers.
"I am sure this idiot will not cause any harm to the palace... The prison door does not count. I will inform His Royal Highness the Prince as soon as possible to release this prisoner."
Li repeatedly raised the banner of Prince Leon, but the soldiers did not blame him too much and let him go in silence.
Li returned the same way he came, and after walking out of the dungeon, he took a deep breath of the outside air.
Li's mind is in a mess now. Before one problem is solved, new trouble arises.
But compared to these troubles, Li suddenly realized some problems.
The dungeon behind him was obviously not in line with this era. This dungeon, which could already be called a historical relic, was actually still in use, which was more or less unreasonable.
Seeing that Li was standing at the dungeon door and did not leave, the guard immediately urged him to leave.
"You have finished your visit, leave immediately!"
With two magic guns pointed at him, Li quickly apologized and left, but the shadow in his heart did not dissipate, but became more and more intense.
As soon as Li returned to the prince's residence, he went to find George.
"What! You want to rescue the assassin who was captured today!"
George couldn't believe his ears. What did Lee think of him?
Li entered the palace with the identity of a chef. How could Li save people? His head?
If a chef ventures into the dungeon, he will be shot to pieces by the soldiers guarding the prison!
"But I've been to the dungeon."
"How did you get there? Didn't the soldiers try to stop you?"
"I went there under the banner of Prince Leon."
After hearing Li's righteous words, George had a lot of swear words in his mind, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
