The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 118: One step ahead

Li once again came to the palace dungeon with the forged prince's decree.

With the prince's letter, no one would stop Li's actions this time.

However, before entering the dungeon, Li still spent some time to prepare himself mentally.

"This weird place always gives me a bad feeling."

The dungeon is out of touch with the overall style of the palace, just like a modern drama suddenly switching to a costume scene, which is nothing but a disruption to the show.

The difference in painting style made Li feel uncomfortable, but the dungeon objectively existed and did not cause any substantial impact on Li.

Lee strode into the dungeon and found the cell where Teresa was held.

This simple-minded nun was removing the straw mat from under her.

Each time, pull out a dry straw, pinch it into small pieces with your fingernails, and then put it to your mouth and blow it away.

In the closed dungeon, Theresa enjoyed the rare entertainment.

After seeing how carefree Theresa was, Li suddenly felt like leaving her here and walking away.

"Hey! Boss! Why didn't you bring a lunch box this time?"

When Theresa found out that Lee came to visit her, she immediately rushed to the front of the fence.

Under the angry gaze of the soldiers at the side, Theresa pried open the iron fence and stood directly in the aisle to communicate with Li.

Li slapped Theresa's head away and handed the forged regulations to the conscientious soldier.

"I have obtained the permission of His Royal Highness the Prince. Please release this stupid guy."

The soldier took the strawberry-scented order and his face showed a momentary expression of disgust.

But he then calmed down and demonstrated the strong self-control of a royal guard.

"You can go."

Li's rescue plan was successfully implemented, and Theresa smiled happily.

Today's dungeon rescue operation once again proved that Li is a very reliable man.

Li was a little confused by Theresa's smile. He always felt that there was something wrong with this stupid nun.

"How long do you want to stay in the dungeon?"

Seeing Lee's impatience, Theresa hurried to catch up.

But Li turned around and pointed angrily at the fence that was bent by Theresa.

"You did a great job, fix the fence for me!"

Theresa turned back aggrievedly and tried to straighten the fence, but because of excessive force, the fence bent inward.

If there were two more hits, the two iron bars might not be able to hold on, so Li quickly dragged Theresa out of the dungeon.

"Li, I'm hungry, where can I get food?"

"…Shouldn't you tell me about the mission assigned by your leader?"

"Let's talk about that later. I'm starving to death!"

Lee knew very well how greedy Teresa was.

Theresa probably wouldn't be able to concentrate until the two-legged sports car replenished enough energy.

Li had no choice but to lead Theresa back to the kitchen of the prince's residence, where there was plenty of free food to satisfy Theresa's big appetite.

"It's good to have something to eat. Let me tell you, in order to find you, I first ran to your house, and then took a long detour to come to the capital!"

In order to get more delicious food from Li, Theresa told Li about her hard work as a low-level employee.

After receiving an order from her superiors, Theresa almost ran herself to pieces.

"…You came to my house to look for me? Did you run there?"

“Not only did I run there, I also ran back!”

Theresa lifted her long legs and patted them with her hands.

After running such a long distance, these long legs are still slender and slim, making people want to play with them.

If an ordinary person dared to run so far, his legs would definitely swell up to the point of requiring amputation, or the muscles would ablate, also requiring amputation.

The nun from the temple doesn't have much brains, but her physical fitness is really amazing.

Theresa was anxious to replenish her body's energy, and Lee hated staying near this old-time dungeon.

The two of them left here quickly.

Little did they know that a group of people visited this dungeon not long after they left.

The leader, under the protection of many soldiers, came to the depths of the dungeon.

This man obviously knew the layout of the dungeon. After turning a few corners, he arrived in front of the prison where Theresa was once held.

The soldier who was previously in charge of guarding Theresa was tidying up the straw mat on the ground. The mat was damaged by Theresa and needed to be replaced with a new one.

"Where are the people imprisoned here?"

As soon as the soldier turned around, he saw a man walking towards him angrily.

Before he could respond, the man grabbed the soldier by the neck, nearly strangling him to death with such force.

"I ask you, where are the people imprisoned here?"

The poor soldier had been pinched so hard that his eyes were rolling back. It was those who followed the leader who quickly rescued the poor guy.

The soldier, who had finally caught his breath, looked up at the person who rushed into the prison. He immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at the other person again.

Each of these people who broke into the prison in search of prisoners held a high-ranking position, and even the guards following behind them were people that the prison guards could not afford to offend.

"The nun imprisoned here has been released by His Royal Highness the Prince!"

The soldier valued his life and responded quickly.

"Your Highness? How could that prince release the prisoners in the dungeon?"

The leader originally came here to see Theresa, but ended up being imprisoned in the dungeon of the palace, and Theresa actually ran away!

The leader was so angry that he let the target escape on his own territory that he wanted to kill the guard on the spot.

And that useless prince, who was clearly under control, was still able to sabotage their actions. It's simply outrageous!

"Those damned people from the Holy Temple, we finally had a chance to study them, but we just missed it!"

The angry leader punched the steel fence in front of him. The iron bars, which had been bent by Teresa several times, could not bear the weight and broke cleanly with a bang.

The leader lost his balance and fell down, and was almost pierced in the chin by the broken iron bar.

"Damn it! Ever since that magician destroyed our institute, nothing has gone smoothly!"

If Li was still in the dungeon, he would probably recognize the manic man in front of him at a glance.

This person happened to be the person in charge of the underground facilities of the beauty salon. When Li was disguised as a wizard of the Secret Order, he had met this person.

"Boss, that person just left not long ago, should we run over and catch her?"

The leader, who acted crazy when being questioned by his subordinates, was extremely calm at this moment.

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is the palace, the palace, the palace, the palace!"

The leader's men immediately realized their mistake. The palace was not a place where they could act recklessly.

This is too close to the king.

The leader has not achieved his goal, so there is no point in continuing to be angry here.

The group prepared to retreat the same way they came.

But before leaving, the leader turned around and asked a question.

"Who took the person away?"

"It's... His Royal Highness's chef."
