The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer
Chapter 35: Aura of Intelligence Reduction
Being separated from her original body made Xiaoli recall some things.
However, the mastermind behind the scenes not only did something to Xiaoli, but also made many arrangements on himself.
Xiaoli was unable to recall the other person's face carefully, which brought the search process to a standstill.
At this time, Li, who had been pretending to be cool, jumped out.
"Now, it's my turn to perform! Shutaimu~"
The pretty girls in the room all looked at Li as if he was an idiot.
They knew that Li was capable, but investigating a case was not something that could lead to a conclusion simply by having the ability.
"Are you going to use some outrageous necromancy again?"
"How could that be? Using magic all the time is tiring, isn't it?"
Not only is necromancy difficult to perform, but the materials consumed are also difficult to replenish. Li would not do business at a loss just to catch a piece of trash.
Li clapped his hands to draw everyone's attention to himself.
"Now, let's rethink the whole process of the incident."
On the white paper, Li wrote down the development of the incident in a flamboyant handwriting.
"At first, we only found traces of witchcraft research near the academy. Later, we found out that someone was using humans for research. Then, the news of Xiaoli being contaminated by demon blood broke out. We gradually got closer to the truth..."
The entire story is clear, and the information Li compiled is not surprising.
"Then, based on the existing information, we can draw a preliminary conclusion that the mastermind behind this is studying necromancy and has a certain grasp of it."
After necromancy was labeled as evil, it had been lost in the open for thousands of years.
Except for hidden families like Li, which have systematic inheritance, it is not as easy as imagined for outsiders to study necromancy.
"Anyone who dares to study demon blood must not be a novice who has just mastered the art of necromancy. He must have done some research in this area, so..."
"So what? Tell me now!"
Li's behavior of keeping people in suspense was really annoying. Even Lilith was behind the scenes, urging Li to confess quickly.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you right away, but I want to ask you first, in your impression, what kind of image do necromancers have?"
Speaking of the image of the necromancer, several people fell into deep thought.
After thinking for a while, Amber spoke first.
"Necromancers are definitely guys who master evil magic. They live with blood and death, maggots swarm under their feet, and their bodies emit a foul stench!"
Amber was almost saying that the necromancers were hellish creatures covered in pus and pustules.
"Aunt Amber, could you please stop glaring at me when you say these things?"
"Why, are you afraid of being identified?"
Amber sneered. Which bastard had made such a mess of her lounge? Which bastard had crawled into the sewer and raised rats and cockroaches?
Amber's resentment was so strong that Li didn't dare to look directly at her.
"Where's Lilith?"
"Well... I think that the necromancer is a hunter active in the shadows. He is mysterious, insidious and cunning, and he can lie and deceive people!"
Lilith also gave her own opinion, and Li felt so sick that he felt sick.
Is there something wrong with this girl's view of herself?
Everyone else had finished speaking, leaving Xiaoli alone still thinking.
Seeing that all eyes were focused on her, Xiaoli spoke decisively.
"Necromancers must be powerful and mysterious, able to manipulate everyone. They possess secrets that others cannot understand, and can perform extraordinary acts that even magicians cannot! The key is that their faces hidden under cloaks and masks must be very handsome!"
Xiaoli paid high praise to the profession of necromancer. Her belief was so devout and so dazzling.
It was so bright that even Lee couldn't bear to watch it.
Why does Xiaoli act like a fanatic after being cured by herself?
Is there a nerve that is not connected correctly?
While Lee was wallowing in self-doubt, the others came to their senses.
"Are you just trying to trick Xiaoli into saying something nice?"
"If you keep doing these useless things, I'll beat you up!"
Under the threat of Lilith and Amber, Li continued to return to the case itself.
“…Actually, Xiaoli is right.”
"To your grandma!"
After listening to Li's nonsense for a long time, Amber and Lilith became very angry.
Seeing that they were really going to beat him, Li decisively gave up teasing them.
"Seriously, have you ever seen a necromancer?"
Everyone looked at Li, thinking that there was one right before their eyes.
"I mean, all the necromancers besides me."
As soon as this question was asked, the room fell silent again.
Seriously speaking, they had never seen any necromancer other than Li.
"Does Auntie count?"
"It counts."
Li nodded affirmatively, and then asked a question that made the girls present suddenly realize.
"Will the necromancers you see have the words 'I am a wizard' written on their faces?"
That definitely won’t happen!
"you mean…"
"Necromancers will disguise themselves as ordinary people, making them difficult to identify in daily life, but their concealment is also relative~"
Li must have grasped a certain point, which made the women anxious.
They were all afraid that they couldn't keep up with Li's thinking. Isn't that admitting that they have no brains?
"Xiao Li, repeat what you just said!"
Xiaoli immediately increased the word count.
They didn't notice it at first, but combined with the existing information, everyone's eyes lit up.
"I understand! Undead wizards can control their own body shapes, and they will definitely adjust themselves into handsome men and beautiful women!"
When it comes to social activities, a good-looking face is definitely an advantage.
Even if the necromancer hides his identity, he will not miss this advantage!
This time, without Li's reminder, the girls picked up the staff information again and started reading it again.
Paper pages rustled as Amber, Lilith, and Xiaoli were all carefully summarizing the information.
After more than ten minutes, the information was sorted out!
There were more than thirty pieces of information placed in front of everyone, and the photos on each piece of information were all of handsome men and beautiful women.
Compared to the first aimless search, the results this time were much more accurate, and everyone believed that the mastermind was among them.
"It's a good thing that the scope is small, but I can't review them all, it would alert the enemy."
She didn't know how powerful the person behind the scenes was, and Amber was afraid that a blind search would cause even bigger problems.
"Then why not find some more conditions and conduct a more detailed screening~"
Amber's problem seemed simple enough to Li.
"It's not as simple as you say..."
"Isn't this simple?"
Amber suppressed her anger.
I'm still asking this kid to do something. Catch the thief first, and then settle the score with the brat afterwards!
Li saw that Amber's blood pressure was already full, so he stopped teasing her.
"First rule out the local ones, then check their resumes. The teacher who suddenly gained fame in recent years is probably the mastermind behind this~"
As soon as Li finished speaking, the three girls' pupils trembled.
What an effective idea! Why didn’t they think of it?
Damn it, it must be Li who lowered their intelligence, not my IQ that has a problem!
