The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

The person leading the exploration mission was changed from Li to Lian, which was inconsistent with the original plan.

However, seeing Lian's worried expression, Li did not say no.

"Okay, since you want to go in and take a look, I'll accompany you to the end. However, the situation inside may be unexpected, so you'd better be mentally prepared."

Out of his duty as a friend, Li reminded Lian and Katon, but the siblings did not take it seriously.

In their imagination, the space inside the door was at most some kind of secret combat group. Lian and Carton would rush in and fight wildly like the Knights exterminating bandits, and finally end the battle.

Li wanted to explain more, but he was not sure about describing the scene inside the door in detail. What if the situation this time was different from that in the beauty salon? One could never predict what would happen.

"Even if it's a sea of ​​fire and a mountain of swords, we'll still try to get through it!"

Lian and Cotton were very excited as it was their first time to personally participate in this kind of investigation activity.

The three of them stood at the gate and carefully looked at the ancient carvings in front of them. Two minutes later, Carton was the first to lose his interest.

"Brother Li, aren't we going to explore? Why don't you go open the door?"

"Why should I open the door? Aren't you the ones who want to continue exploring?"

Katon was speechless. He quickly turned his gaze to his sister, but saw Lian facing the door with a serious expression.

"Lee, you mean there's a trap on that door?"

“…You’re worrying too much. I don’t know if there’s a trap, but I definitely can’t open that door.”

"You can't open it?"

"Yeah, I'm not from here, and I don't have the key or password."

Lian thought Li was pretending to be profound, but he just stood there in a daze, which was really unexpected.

"You can't open the gate, so how can we explore?"

"You have such a big sword, why don't you just chop it over~"

"Just chop it up? What if I have to pay for it? I feel like you're instigating me to do something bad!"

Perhaps it was because Li teased her many times during her days as an employee, Lian seemed too cautious when facing Li.

This time it was Li Wu Yu's turn to stay. Lian and Katon didn't look like they were here for business. They looked more like they were participating in a picnic.

Not wanting to waste any more words with them, Li simply shot out his finger bones and used the powerful bone spear to pierce the sacred gate.

The bone spear made a huge gap in the door, and through the hole, the bright space inside could be seen.

Li poked his head out to take a look and found that the structure of the interior space was very similar to the research facilities in the basement of the beauty salon. It can be judged that they were built in the same period.

"It seems like there's no one guarding this place."

The three of them squeezed through the hole in the gate, and Lian picked up a piece of the gate as a souvenir of this adventure.

The only people standing in the way of the three fully-armed invaders were some weak researchers.

These researchers, like the employees above, were all hiding in the corners of the facility, looking at the three people with fear in their eyes.

Li noticed that there was a guard room-like arrangement behind the gate, but the guards of this underground base had indeed disappeared.

Could it be that Lei and others who were buried in the royal treasury were the original guards here?

"It seems like these people haven't been on the ground for a long time."

Lian and Carton checked the conditions of several researchers. Their skin was rough, their faces were sallow, and their pupils were slightly dilated.

This is a disease caused by living underground for a long time and lack of sunlight.

"Heretic! I will punish you on behalf of the Holy Light!"

A researcher suddenly jumped out and injected himself with a strange solution without saying a word.

Under the leisurely gaze of brother and sister Li Helian, the divine power of holy light gradually emerged from the researcher.

It was the first time that Li witnessed an ordinary person transform into a paladin, and he was full of curiosity about the holy light potion in the researcher's hand.

As for the researcher who has mastered the power of Holy Light...

A skinny guy who has to gasp for breath when talking is still not threatening at all even if he can throw holy light.

Lian simply took a step forward and struck the man in the stomach with the hilt of the sword, causing the researcher's eyes to bulge out and he fell to the ground in agony.

Li shook his head and began to walk into the deeper space. Carton followed Li and looked around for the situation nearby.

"Tell me, what are they researching here? And where are all the people you captured hiding?"

Lian still remembers the original purpose of coming here. Even if Li claims that Theresa may not be here, Lian dare not guarantee that Li's guess is correct.

Lian's professionalism is admirable.

"Sis, forget about that loser, come and look at this!"

Katon's shouts came from the depths of the space. Lian looked along the passage and found that Katon and Li Zheng were parked outside a room.

Lian could only see the two people's surprised expressions from the side, which aroused Lian's curiosity.

Carton has never seen the world and is easily frightened by strange things, but Li is an experienced necromancer, so why does he also look surprised?

With some small doubts and the researcher who was beaten half to death, Lian followed the two people's footsteps and headed to the deep research area.

The entrance to the underground space is not the main structure for research, but the deeper you go, the more facilities and instruments you will see that you have never seen before.

Lian saw many large jars. They were made of a lot of metal and glass structures, and their special shapes seemed to not belong to this world.

"You two here..."

Lian rushed to Li and Carton and was about to ask them why they were in a daze, but when her eyes fell on the research facilities inside, Lian clenched her hands in surprise.

"Oh, it hurts! My bones are broken!"

Lian subconsciously exerted force and broke the researcher's arm, but his cry of pain did not arouse any sympathy in Lian.

Lian lifted the researcher up with force and held him in front of her. Her strong anger made the researcher shut up his noisy mouth.

"Explain to me what's on those tables and in those jars!"

The researcher followed Lian's finger and saw something that made Lian extremely angry.

A half-cut body was placed on the dissecting table, and half of a human figure was floating in the culture tank.

If they were just some dead objects, Lian would not have broken the researcher's bones. The key point was that many of those incomplete research objects were still alive.

They were struggling and raised their arms to ask Lian for help.

Lian didn't know what the researchers here had done to those human bodies. None of them could make any sound, and their struggles were not enough to break free from the confinement facilities.

From the researcher's perspective, these research subjects were well kept, but from Lian's perspective, the legendary demons who enjoyed killing would not go to this extent.

"You crazy people who use the flesh and blood of your own kind for research are the real heretics!"
