The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

The inheritance was not lost, but taken away!

As soon as Li came up with this novel idea, Lei felt as if an electric current was flowing through his head, and the thoughts that had been blocked for half his life were instantly connected.

"You say that, but what evidence can prove it?"

Lei felt that Li's idea was correct because the Weize family had been on the wrong path for hundreds of years.

Not finding the right path for so many years can only prove one thing: all the previous efforts of the Weize family were in vain!

Lei became very upset when he thought that all his previous efforts were meaningless. He grabbed Li's neck hard and asked him to explain more things quickly.

Li hurriedly patted Lei's arm and asked him to let him go.

"If you strangle me, no one will ever talk to you about this topic again!"

Lei quickly let go of Li, and to express his apology, Lei overturned the old patriarch's wheelchair and pushed the corpse to the ground.

After Lei grabbed the wheelchair, he sat on it himself, keeping a distance from Li.

Li looked at the old patriarch crawling on the ground, and saw that he opened his mouth to bite his shoes, so Li kicked the old patriarch to Lei's feet.

"Lei, have you ever taught an apprentice?"

"apprentice?"

"Yes, magic apprentice."

Lei curled his lips in disdain. As an important executor of the secret society, Lei had never taught any apprentices.

Li ignored Lei's disdain and briefly explained the process of how he taught Xiaoli the art of necromancy.

"The magic structure I taught my disciple must be fine. I watched it with my own eyes. There was no problem with the disciple's magic circle, spell materials, movements and spells. However, the result was completely different from when I cast the spell myself."

Lee himself performs magic that can bring the dead back to life.

Xiaoli cast the same magic, but could only transform corpses into ghouls.

"Lei, I think you should have seen the process of ordinary elemental mages teaching apprentices. Those apprentices obviously did everything right, but the results were not in line with expectations."

This situation is very common among apprentice mages.

Lack of self-confidence may lead to spell failure.

The entire process was correct, but the magic did not respond, or there was a conflict in magic power, which directly led to the explosion.

After hearing Li's description, Lei vaguely grasped the key point.

"you mean!"

"That's right. I personally think that there is nothing wrong with the necromancy that has been passed down in the family. The problem lies with the people who use it!"

People have problems?

how can that be!

Seeing that Lei was still confused, Li explained more straightforwardly.

"What I mean is that all those who use necromancy, especially resurrection magic to transform corpses into ghouls, have failed in their spellcasting!"

Only if Li succeeds can the dead be truly resurrected.

"No! Your explanation is totally wrong. It doesn't make sense that everyone else failed to cast the spell, but only you succeeded!"

Lei covered his head in pain. His head kept expanding and shrinking, beating like a big heart.

Li Hao was afraid that he would think too much and his brain would be overloaded and explode.

"That's why I said that the soul from another world that I merged with provided a lot of help in this matter."

Lei stopped thinking. He just wanted to know how Li would complete his theory.

However, Li did not explain in detail what was wrong with the soul he had merged with. He once again gave another example.

"Lei, what do you think magic is?"

"what?"

"What do you think vitality is?"

"what?"

Li asked some strange questions, which confused Lei.

"Lei, let me give you an analogy. Now, there is a granary. This granary can be used by local people. Anyone can go in and take food."

Lei looked puzzled. They were just talking about magic, why were they talking about granaries now?

"But one day, a big shot took the granary for himself. He put a lock on the granary. Only those who obeyed the big shot's orders were qualified to open the lock and take the grain."

"Wait, you said this about magic..."

"People who could have easily obtained food found that they could not. Most people were forced to surrender to the threat of that big man. But even so, the amount of food each person could get was much less than when the lock was not locked."

Lei's mind was once again run through by Li's story.

If the granary in the story is replaced by magic, doesn’t the current situation exactly match what Li described!

Originally everyone could use magic easily, but someone took the magic for himself, and others could no longer use it freely.

"Who is this person who has taken the magic for himself?!"

If such a thing really exists, Lei swears that he will make this person experience the real hell!

Seeing that Lei was following his train of thought, Li continued to guide Lei to think more deeply.

"Lei, what do you think are the powers in the current human magic system that are similar to the necromancy that can resurrect the dead?"

Lei just pondered for a moment and then uttered a word that made him shudder.

"Holy Light!"

Holy Light and the Temple, these two things took root in the human kingdom long ago.

It’s just that for a long time at the beginning, the influence of the Holy Light was very small.

Until the devil appeared, the human army was defeated, and the temple and holy light began to spread widely in people's hearts...

"Wait a minute! The lost heritage of the Weize family also started from that era!"

This time, without Li's active guidance, Lei filled in the missing information.

Lei looked at Li Congming's head, his eyes lighting up with inquiry.

"How did you come up with this? How dare you say that the Holy Temple and the Goddess stole the power that originally belonged to us?"

Li pulled out a magic book from his arms and held it up for Lei to see.

The magic book that Li took out was the Book of the Dead that had always given Li a headache.

"The Book of the Dead, passed down from the Weizer family, told me everything."

Lee uses the Book of the Dead as an endorsement, but this only causes Lei to laugh at him.

"If you tell me where you heard it from, I'm afraid I would believe you. But you took out this crappy book, do you really think I haven't seen it before?"

The Weize family has been studying the Book of the Dead for many years. Lei, who was the victim of this generation of the family, has been living with the Book of the Dead for a full thirty years.

"This book cannot be opened at all, and it does not respond to any outside touches. Apart from being able to help the people of the Weiser family upgrade, it is completely useless!"

Lei told him what he knew about the Book of the Dead, but Li smiled slightly and told him a history that no one had ever known.

"It is indeed very quiet now, but when I was performing the ascension ceremony, I communicated with this book in the spiritual world. The Book of the Dead told me personally that it was a part of the artifact after it was split. The other part that was cut off is the holy book enshrined in the temple!"
