The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 277 Foolish Pride

In the assassin training camp, Li arrived early to support Xiaoli, but in order to lure out more masterminds, Xiaoli took the initiative to ask to be the bait for a while longer.

It’s a pity that until today when she was beaten, no big guy jumped out to cause trouble for Xiaoli.

Li was really fed up, and Xiaoli had run out of patience.

"Where did you come from? You dare to come to my territory, aren't you afraid of death?!"

When the instructor saw that Li showed no fear at all, the anger that he had suppressed before surged up again.

Li Jian saw that the instructor was like a teapot when he was angry, and suddenly he felt a little playful.

"Since you asked sincerely, I will tell you with great compassion! My name is Li, Weize Li!"

Li posed with his head tilted up to the sky at a 45-degree angle, waiting for the admiring gazes from the people around him.

Yet everyone looked at him like an idiot.

"Who is Weize Li?"

"Never heard of it."

Li was a small country noble. Not only had these people never heard of him, even the residents outside didn't know there was such a person as Li.

"You shouldn't be stepping on my maid. I'm her master. Don't you even know me?"

Li was very surprised. These people should at least take a look at the report Xiaoli wrote when she came back, but their unfamiliarity with Li's name did not seem fake.

In other words, the assassin instructor in front of him lacks even the most basic professional qualities.

Li covered his head in pain, feeling that all his careful preparations had gone to waste.

If he had known that the people in the royal capital were stupider than each other, he should not have agreed to Xiaoli's plan.

"Are you Xiaoli's master? Your last name is Weize... You are not dead!"

In Xiaoli's report, it was clearly written that she killed the young master of the Weize family, and then she returned to the training camp to report.

Later investigation information revealed that there was something wrong with the paladin who provided proof to Xiaoli, so Xiaoli might have also been a traitor.

These are the questions the instructor has thought about, but he never thought that the reports written by Xiaoli were all fake!

Seeing the instructor so surprised, Li felt even more indescribable.

At Windmill River Bay, in order to provide Xiaoli with an opportunity to defect, Li deliberately let Xiaoli cooperate with the Paladin and severely injured himself.

Li thought that such a disguise could provide more adequate protection for Xiaoli's actions.

Unexpectedly, all his efforts were in vain.

These people staying in the royal capital know nothing. They judge things only by the time-consuming, labor-intensive and inaccurate transmission of fast horses!

Li had strong doubts. How come such a backward and ignorant kingdom had not been overthrown yet?

"Oh my wisdom! I shouldn't have winked at you natives!"

Li was so angry that he simply stopped pretending.

Li didn't get any sense of accomplishment from showing off in front of these ignorant people.

"Xiao Li, please get up quickly. Be careful not to catch a cold if you lie down for so long."

As soon as Li finished speaking, in front of everyone's shocked gazes, Xiaoli, who was beaten to death by the instructor, stood up as if nothing had happened.

Xiaoli gathered her loose hair behind her head and smiled at Li Hanhan.

"Master, I thought it would work, but I didn't expect them to be so stupid~"

"Alright, Master will deal with you later, just clean up this mess first."

After receiving the order, Xiaoli turned around and looked fiercely at the instructor and the soldier who tortured people the most cruelly.

They looked into Xiaoli's eyes and felt as if they were being stared at by a tigress.

The tigress is angry, they are finished!

The instructor was also shocked and didn't know why Xiaoli could still stand up intact.

The instructor still doesn't quite understand who Li is, but this does not affect his confidence.

This is an assassin training camp, and the kingdom's army is everywhere around.

"What are you still standing there for? Arrest these inexplicable people!"

Seeing that there were only four people on Li's side, the instructor quickly called on the soldiers to surround them.

Being pointed at by many weapons, the middle-aged couple following behind Li pressed close to Li in fear, but Li was communicating with Xiaoli on his own.

"Xiao Li, I told you a long time ago that you would get no results by doing this. It turns out that you are wasting your time."

"Master, if you want to say that I can go back and talk about it later, there are so many people watching us now!"

Xiaoli discovered very early on that her consciousness was affected by something.

When she told Li about this, Li told Xiaoli that it was the Book of the Dead that affected her.

Xiaoli was very confused as to why the Book of the Dead wanted to cause trouble for her.

Later, frequent dreams told Xiaoli that the Book of the Dead wanted to influence Li's actions by influencing Xiaoli.

After Xiaoli and Li figured out the intention of the Book of the Dead, Xiaoli took the initiative to propose a plan.

Xiaoli will pretend to be controlled and give Li a hard blow, then return to the royal capital and personally find out the mastermind who is using the Book of the Dead to exert influence.

During the days since returning to the royal capital, Xiaoli has been carrying the Book of the Dead with her.

Unfortunately, the Book of the Dead seemed to be broken. It has never lit up since Xiaoli returned to the royal capital.

"You're still in the mood for flirting!"

A group of soldiers attacked Li and Xiaoli, but Xiaoli snapped her fingers and the soldiers who rushed up fell to the ground instantly.

Xiaoli imitated Li's cool look perfectly. The others looked at Xiaoli's raised finger, fearing that they would be the ones to fall down in the next snap.

"What the hell is this! What have you done to my people!?"

Seeing that the instructor still had no idea what was going on, Li and Xiaoli made the same painful expression.

With just a little investigation, one can find out that the Weize family is a family of undead wizards, a resistance force in the north, and is labeled a heretic by the Holy Temple. These things are very easy to find out.

"Xiao Li! You traitor, you poisoned us!"

Li didn't want to look at these idiots anymore, so he turned his head and looked at the scenery.

Xiaoli didn't want to keep the young master waiting for long, so she directly activated the curse that had been lying in wait for several months.

After Xiaoli came back, the instructor only restricted her from going out but did not prohibit her from activities within the camp.

Xiaoli had contact with the rice and food in the camp in public many times.

Xiaoli learned this method from Li and knocked everyone down at once, but the instructor managed to get up from the ground with his strong willpower.

"What a shame! The kingdom's elite fell for such a crude trick. I admit that I was careless, but don't even think about humiliating me any further!"

The instructor still had the pride of being a member of the Kingdom Army in his heart. He knew that he had failed today, and it was his own carelessness that caused the situation to deteriorate.

But so what!

A true knight of the kingdom will still swing his sword even if he is alone and facing an unbeatable enemy!

The instructor's strength was rapidly dissipating, so he simply jumped up and rushed towards Xiaoli.

The instructor has no weapons in his hands, so he wants to use his fists to kill the traitor in front of him!
