The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 330 Tragedy caused by a staircase

The water dungeon guard who became a scapegoat was escorted out of the venue, and no one cared what would happen to this man in the end.

There was considerable chaos in the temple because of Sid's death.

Ever since the human kingdom moved to the northern continent, no high-ranking member of the Holy Temple has ever been killed at the headquarters.

Now, the name Freyr Lian has become a thorn in the hearts of every member of the temple.

"This is a provocation to the Holy Temple! We must capture this heretic, Freyr Lian, and put her on the stake for a harsh trial!"

"But the Freyr family is still guarding the harbor. We previously targeted Freyr Lian and angered this family..."

The clergy discussed the culprit who killed Sid, but after the discussion, they found that they had different opinions.

Those who are compassionate, or do not want to cause trouble, hope that the Holy Temple can minimize the impact of this incident, and it would be best if they could reach an agreement with the Freyr family.

But a large number of clergymen who were stepped on were unwilling to bow to the noble families.

Don't joke, the Holy Temple has been accustomed to bullying the nobles over the years, and many clergymen have severely stepped on the faces of big families when doing things outside.

If they are asked to compromise with the Freyr family now, other nobles will surely follow suit in the future!

"Your Majesty the Archbishop! This was done by Freyr Lian. She is a sinner to begin with, and she also committed the crime of murdering the Bishop of West Germany. The kingdom will never allow such heretics and lawless people to go unpunished!"

Everyone's eyes were on the archbishop, hoping that he could take charge of the situation and restore the original order of the church.

The archbishop sat quietly in his seat, as if the quarrels around him did not enter his ears.

The reason why the Archbishop was as steady as a rock was that he knew exactly what West Germany was doing and for whom it was paying.

The archbishop knew very well that with Sid's attitude towards life, he would get into trouble sooner or later.

It’s just a pity that the temple will lose a talented person like Sid if one dies.

"Alright! Now is not the time to argue! First bury Cid, then elect a new bishop!"

When they heard that a new bishop was to be elected, those who had not paid much attention to the meeting turned their attention to the central government.

This is a vacant bishop's position. You should know that the rotation of positions in the cathedral is based on one generation.

Everyone wants to be the bishop, but it is extremely difficult for anyone to be promoted.

It was a good thing that Sid died. He left such an important position as bishop free for others to compete for.

Some people are already praying for Freyr Lian in their hearts, hoping that the goddess will bless her with a long life, and even better, kill a few more bishops she dislikes!

With the Archbishop presiding over the meeting, the scene soon quieted down.

Everyone agreed that Sid should be buried first, and then they could discuss who should be given the position of bishop.

"This box contains Sid's head, right?"

The archbishop came to the box in the center of the venue, recited a passage of scripture with a compassionate look on his face, and then asked his servant to open the lid.

Sid's death was his own fault, but he also died while serving the church. The archbishop has the responsibility to comfort Sid's soul.

Since the person is dead, we should always see his last appearance.

The servant opened the lid, revealing Sid's face.

Sid's death looked very peaceful, his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was asleep.

Most people who die suddenly have hideous faces or die with their eyes wide open.

Sid's peaceful appearance put everyone at ease, and he must have had no regrets when he died.

More people joined in chanting scriptures, and sacred echoes filled the venue.

The holy light shining in the conference hall once again shot straight into the sky, attracting the worship of the people in the royal capital.

Sid's death received the highest level of treatment. Just with so many people praying for him, Sid's death was worth it.

However, no one asked whether Sid was willing to exchange his life for such treatment.

A black gas emerged from Sid's head, and the dead Sid suddenly opened his eyes.

The dead can still move!

Humans have an instinctive fear of the corpses of their own kind. The moment Sid's head shook, the servant holding the lid of the box screamed and fainted.

The flying box lid hit the archbishop's head directly. The archbishop's golden crown fell to the ground and a streak of blood flowed from his forehead.

The archbishop raised his hand and covered his forehead subconsciously, and then he was stunned by Sid's head.

Sid's head suddenly became as ferocious as a devil. He rolled around in the box and finally knocked it over.

Sid's head rolled out of the box, turned on the ground, and finally stopped at the Archbishop's feet.

Sid's mouth opened wide and blood kept gushing out. The blood seemed to have life and condensed into a line of bloody words at the archbishop's feet.

"Everyone must die! We betrayed the goddess, we stole the holy light, we are heretics and sinners!"

Bright red words came into the Archbishop’s eyes!

The archbishop was of noble status, but he had very few opportunities to experience dangerous situations. The sudden and horrifying scene before his eyes frightened the archbishop directly.

"what!"

The archbishop uttered a cry and stepped back quickly, tripping over his feet and falling backwards.

With a dull thud, the archbishop hit his head hard on the steps behind him. His head, which had already been wounded by the box lid, was bleeding profusely this time.

"Yes, there is a monster!"

"Goddess, have you abandoned us?"

"Quick, save people!"

The scene instantly became chaotic.

Soon, the quick-witted clergy noticed the abnormality of Sid's head.

There were very obvious traces of necromancy on Sid's head. Now everyone understood that they had been fooled by a necromancer!

Several priests rushed to Sid's head and swung holy light frantically until Sid's head was purified into ashes.

"Archbishop! Your Majesty! Cheer up!"

It was not until this time that someone ran to check on the archbishop.

When they noticed that the archbishop's head was bleeding profusely, the meeting scene suddenly became extremely strange.

Everyone stopped and they even held their breath.

Time passed by little by little, until the person with the smallest lung capacity could no longer bear it and took a deep breath.

Someone is moving!

Others also quickly took action. They carried the archbishop to a safe place and called the clergy who were most skilled in healing.

"Hurry, you must cure the archbishop! Otherwise you will be buried with him!"

The priest who was called to treat the archbishop was horrified by the scene before him.

The fear in their hearts made them ignore the problem at hand.

Around the Archbishop, many high-ranking officials of the temple possess powerful healing abilities.

Why did the archbishop, who was seriously injured, have to call in an ordinary priest from outside to treat him?

After so many rays of healing holy light were cast, and the priest in charge even tried his best to overdraw his magic power, a trace of color finally returned to the archbishop's face.

"Thank the Goddess! Praise the Holy Light! The Archbishop has not abandoned us! He is still willing to protect the world!"

The clergy in the conference hall all praised the archbishop.
