The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Silsa was enraged by Li's repeated provocations, and the holy light on her body became so bright that she directly burned a big hole in the plastic film of the greenhouse.

The plastic film was separated by the magician using earth magic. Li currently does not have the ability to mass-produce plastic, so the big holes left by the burning made everyone feel distressed.

"Sister, even if you don't like the greenhouse, you can't destroy the fruits of other people's labor!"

Theresa has not yet completely accepted the stories Saoirse told her, but that doesn't stop her from calling Saoirse sister.

In the church, clergymen of the same age would call each other sisters, and Teresa treated it as if she had met a new fellow believer.

Theresa climbed up the ladder to the top of the greenhouse to repair the broken plastic sheet.

Saoirse realized that her extreme behavior had caused trouble for her sister, and she hid her face under her helmet, too embarrassed to see anyone.

"That's right. Let me tell you my view of the earth. I think the land is a mixture of the remains of broken stones and the dead bodies of animals and plants."

Li squatted down, grabbed a handful of loose soil, and let it fall between his fingertips.

When Saoirse heard Li's description, she didn't take it to heart at all.

"Ms. Saoirse, you said that the land was formed from the bodies of gods after their death. Then, why did the bodies of gods form places with huge differences in soil quality, such as Gravel Hills and Windmill Bay?"

"That's because..."

Saoirse wanted to talk about the story in the Bible, but found that there seemed to be no more detailed parts in the Bible.

The soil in Windmill Bay is fertile and can grow many crops.

The gravel hills were covered with rocks and even the weeds grew sparsely.

There is no description of soil fertility in the scriptures, but this situation is closely related to people's lives.

"Let me ask this in another way. The Holy Temple has studied methods to accelerate the growth of food, but found that accelerating the growth will consume the life force of the earth. So why doesn't the Holy Temple find a way to restore the life force of the earth?"

The life force is consumed, all you have to do is find a way to replenish it. This idea is so simple that it is terrifying, Saoirse has never thought of it before.

Not only did Silsa not think about restoring the life force of the earth, even the bishops in the church who had read the holy scriptures had not thought about this issue.

Because restoring the life force of the earth is no longer something that humans should have the means to do.

This is the power of God!

"Tell me, can these stinking things under your feet restore the power of the earth?"

Saoirse's faith was shaken by Lee again, and the holy light on her body flickered like a short-circuited light bulb.

When Li saw Saoirse like this, he was worried that something might happen to her.

"Calm down, don't explode!"

At this moment, the most frightened person was Theresa, who was riding on the roof.

Is the sister I just recognized going to kill me?

"You must explain to me why this garbage can replenish the power of the earth!"

Saoirse knew that something was not right with her, so she grabbed Li and jumped out of the hole in the shed.

Standing outside, blown by the cold wind, the holy light on Saoirse's body calmed down a little.

"I'm telling you, you have to stay calm...Okay, I'll explain it carefully."

Li jumped away from Saoirse and after retreating several meters, he found a big rock to sit on.

"Speaking of replenishing the missing power of the earth, I have to mention another theory. As a paladin, you should have seen a real battlefield."

Saoirse nodded. She had participated in battles against heretics, obeyed the orders of the Templar, and raided the homes of corrupt nobles.

"Then you should have noticed that where a dead person is buried, flowers and plants grow more luxuriantly than the surrounding areas."

Silsa's heart was shocked and she was distracted by the facts that Li told her.

"Dead bodies make flowers and plants grow more luxuriantly..."

"That's right. In my opinion, the Holy Temple's judgment on dark creatures is completely wrong. Those that suck human blood and eat human flesh are dark creatures. Then aren't all the flowers and plants in the world dark creatures?"

“Flowers and plants are the colors that the goddess of light sprinkles on the world. They are the embellishment of this monotonous world, and they are also part of the food given to us…”

Saoirse kept repeating the contents of the Bible, trying to protect her fragile heart.

However, Li rushed through Saoirse's defense like a bull.

"Birds, fish, livestock, and even humans, lie on the ground after death, their bodies decay, pus flows into the earth, and the roots of flowers and plants dig into the soil, absorbing the breath left by death to make themselves stronger. The green and flowers are just the disguise of plants. They are the dark creatures through and through!"

"No! You are talking nonsense. I don't want to listen to you. What you said are all evil words of the devil!"

When Li saw Saoirse crying and holding her head, he found her very interesting.

What will a paladin whose faith collapses become? A fallen knight?

"In fact, people are the most terrifying dark creatures. Food is also plants, and we eat food. We humans are like night ghosts, dark creatures that devour dark creatures!"

"what!"

Holy light shone brightly on Saoirse's body, and then she exploded with a loud bang.

A large pit with a radius of about ten meters was blown out on the ground where Saoirse was standing, and Li was directly blown away by the shock wave.

Li, with a bloody head, shook his head to calm the tinnitus. He didn't expect Saoirse to be so powerful after the explosion.

She was almost as fast as a bomb!

"Lady Saoirse, I was wrong. Please don't lose your faith. I just said nonsense!"

"It's too late! I shouldn't have listened to your nonsense!"

In the end, Saoirse's faith collapsed. There was no holy light on her body anymore, and the armor hanging on her body became as heavy as a weight.

For a moment, there was complete silence in the vicinity, and the group of people watching the excitement from a distance also noticed that something was wrong, and no one dared to come over to see.

Saoirse cried. This was the second time she cried in front of Lee.

The worldview that she had always relied on was destroyed by Li, and she would no longer be able to be a paladin in the future.

Li didn't expect that things would become so serious in the end.

"sorry."

Although Li looked down on Saoirse's bigotry in faith, he also understood that destroying other people's faith was no different from killing their parents.

But Li had no other choice. If he went against the Church in the future, there would definitely be many people like Saoirse whose faith would be destroyed.

Saoirse took off the useless armor and threw the parts into the field angrily.

"…In fact, I already knew that the Holy Temple's approach was wrong, but there was no other solution in the entire continent. We could only support the Holy Temple's approach until I met you."

In order to obey the orders of the Church, Saoirse hypnotized herself countless times and killed innocent people in order to better spread the gospel.

Now, Saoirse's hands are stained with blood, and she is not worthy of enjoying the peaceful life in Windmill Bay.

Saoirse stood up and took silent steps.

At first, Li thought she was angry and wanted to be alone, but after a while he realized that Saoirse actually wanted to leave Windmill Bay.

"Where do you want to go!"

"I want to die!"

"My Goddess, how can you be so depressed? If you really feel that you owe me too much, you should spend the rest of your life paying for the sins you have committed..."

Before Li could finish his words, he saw Saoirse coming back.

"Saoirse?"

"I think you're right."

Saoirse went into the greenhouse and spread fertilizer with the farmers, which stunned Li.
